I just want to open PDF's

I just want to open a pdf from my websearch,, WHY do I have to join a forum? How did I geth here from customer support?

No idea how you got here. You don't know?
So, now that you're here, maybe we can help?
Can you tell us whether you have Reader and if so, what version? What OS? What exactly you were doing when you had the problem (clicking a link to a pdf, opening one on your computer...etc) and what ended up going wrong (error messages...etc.)

    You need Silverlight. That is the application that plays the Netflix movies.

  • I just want to open a picture in LR by double clicking on it in a folder.

    I just want to open a picture by double clicking on it in a folder, why does Lightroom open the import dialogue, force me to close the dialogue, open Navigator, scroll down to the folder I already have open in Explorer, load the folder and then pick the picture I want? Does it have to be so complicated?

    If my daughter sends me a picture of her road under 5" of snow, I really don't need to open LR to look at it, as I may look and dispose - I guess I'll have to set everything but Tiffs and RAW files to open in Photogallery or my old copy of Elements.
    Exactly - Lr isn't really intended as a quick photo viewer.
    Irfanview is a very good solution to that requirement.

  • Just want to open it, not save it....

    when i click to open a document or something I've received, first computer asks me if i want to open it or save it. But when i click "open" it saves it anyway in the download folder!! could somebody pls tell me how to fix that???

    Just delete the files in your download folder regularly. Ten seconds once a week isn't too bad.
    Although I have a question. It sounds like this is something you experience with attachments in email. Are you using Apple's Mail or some other program? I just tested opening an attachment from Mail and it did not save to my downloads--it just opened up in Word and disappeared when I closed it. If you're using a web-based email program, your attachments probably follow the default for any internet download, which is to put it in the downloads folder.

  • Pages tells me I need to upgrade to 5.0 to open documents from iCloud.  When I go to the mac app store it says pages 5.0 is installed, but Pages says it's running 4.3.  I just want to open documents on my mac that were created on my iPad.

    Pages tells me I need to upgrade to 5.0 to open documents from iCloud, but the mac app store says its already installed and won't let me upgrade.  when I check the version of pages I am running it says 4.3.  I just want to be able to open documents on my mac that were created on my iPad.  How can i get Pages 5.0?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You already have got Pages 5.0, but you still have got Pages 4.3, so Pages 4.3 is being opened instead of the newest version, being this the reason why you get a message telling you to update Pages to the most recent version.
    If you don't need the old version, open a Finder window, choose Applications in the sidebar and delete the old Pages icon or move it to an external drive. I don't recommend you to do this, as users are complaining about the lack of features of the new version.
    Instead, what you can do is to put the new Pages icon in the Dock by dragging it from the Finder window to the Dock, so you can open the new Pages version from the Dock and you can open all your documents with it after opening the application

  • I just want to open the top cover & make a copy.

    I just want to make a copy on the HP Deskjet 2541, but the wireless button keeps flashing. I have not hooked up this printer to my computer.  I just want to use it for making a copy right know.  When I first plugged it in & hooked it up, I was able to make copies just fine.  But all of a sudden the wireless button & control panel display lights keep flashing, and I cannot make a simple copy.

    Hello @e60age,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I would like to assist you today with resolving the blinking light error state that you're experiencing on your HP Deskjet 2541 All-in-One Printer. Now, the blinking wireless light shouldn't be affecting your copy function. When the blue wireless light blinks it just means that your HP Deskjet is 'searching' for a wireless network. Because your machine is used as a standalone copier this wireless light status doesn't have any affect. However, the other blinking control panel lights may be indicating that there is an actual error state occuring on your machine.
    Unfortunately, you did not indicate what other control panel display lights keeps flashing. Therefore, I will not be able to provide you with accurate troubleshooting steps at this point. Please take a look on your printer and verify exactly what blinking or solid lights you see on your printer as I will need to know.
    In the meantime, you can take a look at the following support document: Blinking Lights
    Once the support document opens please follow the steps that match the blinking light pattern you see on your machine.
    Please respond to this post with the result of your troubleshooting. Should the issue persist be sure to include what lights are blinking on your machine. I look forward to hearing from you!

  • I just want to open existing PDF's on my desktop but it wont.I dont get how to open them.

    My acrobat 7 quit working and I cannot open any of my PDF's in my computer. I subscribed to this- thinking I will be able to open the PDF's on my desktop but I cant --and they are not recognized. How do I get my older PDF's to open?

    Ah, gotcha! I see that you have Adobe PDF Pack, so yes, you can combine PDF files (up to 12 at a time). Log in to your account at https://cloud.acrobat.com and click Combine Files. Then, select Files to Combine, and select up to 12 files. If you need to combine more than 12 files, do them in batches, and then combine the combined files.
    (There are some types of the PDF files that can't be combined, such as those that are password protected, or are part of a PDF portfolio.)
    Best,
    Sara

  • I ask to open a pdf file on a website but upon doing so, I'm asked where do I want to save it. I just want to open it.

    This seems to be a new problem. Never had this issue in recent past.

  • I do not want to save every file I download. just want to open a file and move on. I do not see an option to just open or run the download without saving.

    Please give an option to just open and run a download without saving.
    I have a bunch of the things saved in the download folder that I have no clue what all of it is. Please I do not want to save everything I download, I would like to just open a file move on.
    Thank you.

    sorry but there is no option like this.
    but if you like you can delete them manually
    for these :
    1.open downloads from menu button on right or by simply pressing (Ctrl +J )
    2.Then select the downloaded file you want to delete by a single click on it.
    3. You will find a folder type icon on right side of that , in which you should click.
    4. Then it will open folder where the selected file saved.
    5. Then you can delete that file .
    OK done

  • If I open a photo in "preview", multiple photos open. I just want to open one, but can't figure out how to do it.

    I keep multiple photos in a desktop folder to be quickly accessed by using Preview. But when I try to open ONE photo, it opens multiple photos. Can't figure out how to display just the single one that I select.  OS 10.7.2

    This is the resume feature of Lion. The last state of the application is saved when quitting (i.e last pictures viewed in Preview, last videos viewed in Quicktime etc).
    You can switch it off for Preview by copy and pasting the following in to the terminal application
    defaults write com.apple.Preview NSQuitAlwaysKeepsWindows -bool false

  • I WANT to open PDF in Adobe NOT FF but updates force me into FF

    My FF decided on 12/1/2012 to open in browser, overriding my settings. No matter what I do, how I change settings, PDFs open in FF. I even totally uninstalled Acrobat 11 and reinstalled Acrobat 10. Still opens in browser (so does that mean it's FF causing the problem?)
    My settings in FF were to open in Reader, overridden. Changed to save file. Overriden. No
    matter what I do, PDFs open in FF. My settings in FF for years have been to open in Adobe, but now I cannot find the setting!
    So now, haha, PDF opens in FF and FLASH is mucked up. So I've increased the problems and
    spent an hour and a half. Can you help? What am I (or they) doing wrong?

    I solved it as follows:
    in Firefox go to Tools at the top of screen
    then go to Options in the pull down menu
    you will see lists of Contents and Actions
    go down Contents to Portable Document Format (PDF)
    go to Action column click on it a pull down menu will appear
    choose Adobe Reader (default)
    that cured the problem for me.

  • Firefox keeps making me save files from my school Blackboard, and I don't want to save them, I just want to open them. How do I do this?

    Every other computer just asks "would you like to save this or open it?" But on mine, it doesn't ask, it just takes you to someplace you can save it. I'm sure this is a really simple fix, but I can't figure it out! Thanks.

    sign in to My Apple ID and select the Password and Security tab to send an email to your rescue email address to reset your security questions and answers (the steps half-way down that page should give you a reset link)

  • I don't want creative cloud..just want to open cs6

    I purchased CS6, loaded it on my computer, registered it etc but obviously I did something wrong because its convinced I was using a free trail subscription which has now expired.  Long story short...I can't open CS6.
    Do I have to uninstall and reinstall?  Will that count as an install on a new computer? 

    Thanks for your reply, you're the only one who has.
    Right now I get a pop up that says my trial has expired, it gives me the
    option of subscribing to Creative Cloud.  At the bottom of the pop up it
    asks if I want to license this software, if I follow what you're saying you
    want me to go into there and re-enter my s/n.
    I checked in my Adobe account and the s/n is listed there.
    I'm concerned that its going to view this as loading it on another computer.

  • When i open a new tab in Firefox, the yahoo website will open automatically in this tab. How can i prevent any website from opening in my new tabs? I just want to open an empty tab.

    You click on new tab, a new tab opens, but the tab is opened as the yahoo homepage.
    I accidentally downloaded the yahoo toolbar as malware the other day. This toolbar is really imposible to remove. It's not in the sofware add/remove menu, i've tried with several anti-malware sofware, they didn't succeed.
    Now, i already made the toolbar invisible, but it still has a place in the firefox menu at the top of the browser, and like i said, it keeps opening itself in a new tab.

    A new tab opens by default as a blank tab (about:blank).
    If that isn't the case then an extension has changed that behavior.
