I do not want to use Preview - how do I replace it with Adobe

When I receive a PDF as an attachment in Mail, I cannot readthe contents - it is all gobblygook. I want to make Adobe my defualt. I have used File Get Info and then selected a pdf file on my desk top and selected Open With Adobe for all files . However it only works for files on my desktop. In Mail, the files still open in Preview and I cannot read the contents - please help me.

Do the get info thing again and when the list of apps is displayed, press the option key which will change "Open With" to "Always Open With". If that does not work, just drag the attachment icon to the desktop and open it from there.

itunes accounts are not the same as icloud accounts. It's okay to use the same ID for the itunes account on different devices owned by different users. That way you share purchased items. But for icloud, each user should have their own account if they want their own data, otherwise data is shared among all users.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
I'm Rory, but iCloud Control Panel only allows you to set up iCloud mail, calendar and contacts in Outlook. You can't use calendar and contacts on a different app, but if you want to use mail on a different application, you can set up the account manually > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4864 The incoming server is “mail.me.com” and the outgoing is “smtp.me.com”

I am trying to import Firefox bookmarks from a Windows machine into Firefox on an Apple. I do not want to use Safari. How do I do this?

am trying to import Firefox bookmarks from a Windows machine into Firefox on an Apple. I do not want to use Safari. How do I do this?
I have, on my HP laptop, running XP Pro, using Firefox 4.0, went under bookmarks to show all bookmarks. A window opens up that says library. I then go to import and back up, and I choose export HTML. I then move this file over to my new Mac Pro. On my Mac Pro I also have Firefox 4.0. I go up under bookmarks, show all bookmarks, import HTML. It lets me browse and I find the file on the desktop, I select it then nothing happens. I am not interested in using Safari. I would like to continue using Firefox. However, as an experiment, I followed the same process except on my Apple computer I opened up Safari and tried to import in the Firefox bookmarks. It came up with an error saying the file could not be accessed. I then thought perhaps the file got corrupted, so I went back to my Windows Firefox and re-exported the bookmarks again. Same problem. So, am I creating the bookmarks incorrectly on my Windows machine?
Thanks,
Kent

Probably your Mac cannot understand the Windows html format, please try the following to see if it helps:
In your PC, export the bookmarks in html as you did in your post. After you have saved it, change the name of the file to “bookmarks.html” and save it again.
In your Mac, import the saved file as you posted.

Why don't pdf open in Preview, it asks where Adobe Acrobat is located? I never used Acrobat and do not want to use it.

I am using Safari 5.0.5 and open a page that is a PDF and only a black screen comes up and asks where I have Adobe Acrobat. I do not have Acrobat and want to use preview. I looked in the Safari preferences and there is no place to set it so PDFs only use Preview. Please help!

Right or control click a PDF file you already have on the hard drive then click Get Info.
In the Get Info panel from the pop up menu next to: Open with
Select: Preview
Then click: Change All

I do not want to use ios 8. How do I stop the download?

I have an iphone 4s and do not want to use ios 8. I thought as long as I didn't tap "Download and Install" I would be okay, but today, after entering my apple id, the download began on its own! I'm currently on airplane mode. How do I cancel the download? Is there a place to get the old ios 7 or will there be a way to revert?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If you have already downloaded the plug-in and you are getting a message telling you that you can't open it because it is not from the Mac App Store or from identified developers, that's caused by Gatekeeper > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5290
To open the plug-in, right-click it (or press the Control key and click it) and choose Open. Another option is to go to System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General, and choose "Anywhere" under "Allow applications downloaded from"

Hi screen name,
Adobe PDF printer gets installed when you install Acrobat 10 Pro.
To use this printer you need to purchase Acrobat. Once the trial period is over you cannot use the printer to create pdf files.
An alternative way for you is to utilize Microsoft's own inbuilt pdf engine.
You can simply open the file and select 'Save as' and in the type list select 'pdf'

Need to change acct to Canadian from American but it won't let me without using up my balance of $1.27. There is no way to spend exactly this amount. I do not want to use a credit card. I have a Canadian iTunes card that I want to redeem now that I'm living in Canada.

Until your recent change, I used Firefox to search the internet. Nows I get a message that says "File not found." I DO NOT want to use google, but that SEEMS to be my only choice. WTF? Tell me how to get back to my Firefox search.

I DO NOT want to use Google for anything on my computer. I do not want to search or browse using google.
After the change Firefox made about a month ago, I can't get my search line browser, whatever the hell it is at the top of my computer screen, to give me anything. The only way I can search the internet is using google. I DO NOT want to use google for anything on my computer.
Need more info?

if Firefox is now searchingbrowsing through Google, I will quit Firefox and find something else. I do not want anything from Google operating on my computer.
