IE 11 hates PDF files

I'm using IE 11 with Win 7 Pro 64 bit. When I read a PDF file online, most of the time IE refuses to go back to the main page of the site. When I press the back button on my keyboard or click the back arrow on IE it just keeps trying to reopen the PDF.
Sometimes if I push the back button really fast five or six times it will get away from the PDF but I never know what page it may take me to. This behavior is a PITA. Can someone please tell me how to fix it?
Jay Wells

I am having the same problem with this bug and it is getting very very annoying.
Windows 7
IE 11.0.9
Adobe X pro 10.1.10
The fix:
It may be avoided by using a different search engine when looking for .pdf stuff.
The problem:
Seems to happen when clicking the link of a google search result.
open any .pdf web link found on a google search. (not related to downloading), for an example go to google and search this website then click the result.
http://library.csun.edu/egarcia/documents/mlacitation_quickguide.pdf
Once the page is finished loading read if you desire.
Now press the "back to" button with your mouse (if you use one) at the top left or the "backspace" key.
What happens in my IE 11 is that the same page refreshes and I get to read it all over again.  At this point the "Backspace" key does not even work.
Now if I click my "back to" with my mouse or finger and really really fast multiple times it might go back to the previous page or further back.
So this problem is not solved or fixed by using key shortcuts or having the browser open a new tab.

  • I HATE my new MACBOOK PRO, it will not let me open any PDF files and I downloaded the ADOBE READER three freaking times and it keeps saying that all the files are corrupt. I would rather have my 2008 Dell at this point. what is wrong with this thing

    I HATE my new MACBOOK PRO, it will not let me open any PDF files and I downloaded the ADOBE READER three freaking times and it keeps saying that all the files are corrupt or damaged. I would rather have my 2008 Dell at this point. what is wrong with this thing

    Perhaps the PDF files are corrupted.
    Hit the command key and spacebar, a blue Spotlight in the upper right hand corner appears, now type Preview and press return on the Preview program.
    Now you can try opening the PDF's from the file menu and see what's going on.
    If they are corrupted, perhaps they are trojans from your Windows PC or gotten from a bad location online.
    Download the free ClamXav and run a scan on the possibly infected folder.

  • Since last update, unable to open PDF files from either banking site. The other (IE) works fine but I hate IE. I deleted newer versions and went back to older releases. No help, same thing. Checked settings in options. That is ok. What's up?

    Unable to open PDF files from my banking statements.

    I think almost every dev is on arch-general, so that is the place to contact the group in general.  Specific points can probably be emailed to the dev involved, if one is identifiable and if the bug tracker is not a better place (bug reports to my email get ignored).
    I think the whole problem here is that there is really no dev in charge of that package.  So your emails were probably seen then skipped over by all devs thinking not my problem...  (I know that is true for me).   Then Andrea noticed an "orphan" package that needed updated and went ahead with it without connecting it to your previous emails, which is unfortunate.
    Now our maintainer backend is fixed, hopefully we can get all the orphan packages adopted out, or at least know if we need to bring on new people to maintain them.  That way, there should always be someone who information about specific packages should be sent to.

  • Need to Generate PDF file and send it to customer through email-ALV report

    HI All,
       I am having data in Internal table.
    can we create PDF file with out having spool-request number.
    My requirement is whenever user clicks on execute button the output is generated in PDF format automatically and then send it to customer through email.
    I found few programs in SDN for generation PDF. But problem is everyone passing the spool request to the function module.
    spool request will be generated whenever we click on print button.
    Am I correct?.
    Is there any other way to create spool request automatically. If so we can pass the this spool number to the function module.

  • How come pages won't open PDF files made by Pages?

    How come pages won't open PDF files made by Pages?
    I have files I made with Pages and exported as PDF but I can't open them with pages to edit?
    Also, where are the recent files created by pages located? Can't find those to open either..

    Hi Tom,
    I was delighted when I signed up for Pages. Clunky yes, but it worked. I've been a graphic designer on a Mac for 25 plus years and have logged too many horror stories of "upgrade" wars which cost me massive lost time, data and money forcibly extracted just so I could finish a project.
    When I first used Pages in April of 2012? or there about, I was able to open Word documents exported to .pdf format, emailed to me, which I then dragged into Pages. I could make the changes I needed to make, export as a .pdf, return it back to my client which they could then edit on whatever it was they were using. I'm not a neophyte with this. I've had Original Photoshop as a stand alone, Quark (which locked users out 6 months after I purchased it.) Quark again, Freehand, Pagemaker, Illustrator, Photoshop again, Creative Suite for several upgrades, Acrobat Pro. 2 years ago I lost 6 years of Quicken data and had to and "upgrade" start over. This last go around I  had to "upgrade" my Apple ID - yes I had 2 on purpose, lost my Pandora One and my ability to get into the Tulsa County Library website.
    At this point, I'm retired and feel like what I've paid for in the past should WORK today. I have a 100+ page cookbook in Quark which I was able to export as a .pdf, that I've lost the tags too, Easier to start over. I have artwork that is hundreds of megs in Photoshop. Not the least bit interested in anybody's "cloud".
    Thanks for letting me vent. I'm determined to keep my equipment and software up to date so I can enjoy the skills I've acquired, but I completely cringe at Apple's antics. I truly hate it when I have to respond to some new "tip" or product offer. BooHiss. Happy Turkey Day. Pages is a "turkey" program.
    Best regards, mbd

    When I try to open an .ai/pdf file received through my email, it won't open and asks for a password. I have never set up any kind of password for email security, but have tried typing in my standard passwords. Nothing works. I wonder if it has anything to do with the use of my Wacom3 Tablet...I've been having trouble with it and was getting the same message when trying to open the User's Manual in my Applications/WacomTablet file on my hard drive. Any suggestions? I just downloaded the latest version for the Wacom and recently upgraded to Snow Leopard 10.6.7 (which I hate, and my CS3 hates, etc.)

    It sounds like you have a a password-protected PDF. The password was set by the person who encoded it.

  • Print pdf file

    Hello everybody.
    I have installed Oracle Database 10.2.1, Http server that comes with its companion cd, APEX 3.0.1, OC4J Standalone and Apache FOP, all in one computer. Now all good except by ORMI server that dont work enough good. All this in Linux Red Hat ES/AS 4.
    I have done a report and I HAVE MY FIRST PDF REPORT, but in screen and first I must to do a normal Apex Report and from this lunch the FOP. I think that must have a mistake in this.
    ¿What I want to do ? easy , call the FOP from a buttom, it generate a PDF file, I take this and print in the printer of my custom with javascrip or any other tool.
    Questions ,
    1º) How I can generate the PDF file without first must to show the first page of it.
    2º) From where I can take the PDF file generated by FOP?
    Any idea wellcome.
    Thanks & Regards to everybody.

    Hi!
    You need to use application level items instead of page level items. Application items can be populated from page items or thru a computation or a page process or an application process, etc.
    You will need to check the SQL of your report and change it to use the application items instead of page items.
    I have set up application items for things like report begin and end dates, etc.
    Another option is to pass them in the URL you are using to run the report. See the documentation on f?p.
    Let me know if you need more info.

  • Ever since I installed Safari 5.1 I can no longer access the pdf files on my website. I keep on getting an error with Webkit2webprocess.exe telling me that LogTransport2.dill was not found. Please help..

    Ever since I installed Safari 5.1 on my PC (XP) I can no longer access the pdf files on my website. I have no problems with Chrome and  Firefox. I keep on getting a message from WebKit2WebProcess.exe that the LogTransport2.dill was not found. (I HATE PCs...) I tried reinstalling Acrobat 9. I tried reinstalling Safari. I even tried an older version of Safari. Nothing Helped.  Others have tried it on their machine, and it worked fine. But I do not know what is the matter with mine. I suspect the root cause is the missing LogTransport2.dill file. But I do not know how to go about getting it.  Your help is truly appreciated. My website is http://www.hlmartworks.com.

    I have also found the article that provides 3 solutions but none of the solutions worked.

  • No option in adobe reader 9.2 when opening a pdf file to "save as" a tiff file

    Hi, I want to save a pdf file as a tiff file.  I have Adobe Reader 9.2 and windows xp.  In the Adobe website, it says I can export or convert a pdf file into different formats.  However, when opening an existing pdf file, there isn't an option to export or "save as" in the Tools menu or in the Preferences under Edit.  The reason I want to save a pdf file into a tiff file format is because when I use the program Microsoft Office Document Imaging to open a tiff file, it allows me the option to move selected pages & save it as a new file.  In a pdf file, I have to save all the pages as one file & I don't necessarily want all the pages.   My only other option is to print the selected pages I want from the adobe file document and then scan it into a tiff file but I would hate to use paper just for that purpose.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks,

    You can use a tiff printer driver:

  • Instantiating a PDF-file that is present as an attachmeent in a SOFM object

    Hi all,
    I have a workflow that processes incoming customer request that come in via e-mail. For each e-mail a workflow is triggered using transaction SO28. This results in a workflow with a SOFM attachment. If the incoming e-mail contains an attachment (PDF-file)  this PDF is visible in the SOFM object as an attaachment.
    However I want to instantiate this PDF-attachment automatically so that it is available in the workflow as an IMAGE object.
    Does anybody have experience with this or have some handy coding for this?
    This would be greatly appreciated!
    Kind regards,
    Erik Gouw

    I'm not an expert on editing files that are opened by another application, but I am not sure it _can_ be done the way you currently have it set up.  At least as far as IE is concerned.  (And I hate IE, too.. never did like it.)
    IMHO, the file should be stored in a database; that way, no matter how many people are accessing it, you can make changes and save them to the binary stored in a BLOB/CLOB datatype.  And if you (exclusive) lock the record as it's being saved, whomever is trying to access it will be "paused" until the save is complete and they will then retrieve the latest update without any corruption of data, or other 'hiccup'.
    If a database is not an option, I'm not sure what to do.  If it were an intranet, it might be different.  But a network share isn't the best solution.  It might be cost-saving or easier to maintain; but there's a saying - You can have it cheap, fast, or good; pick two.

  • Overwriting a PDF file that is open on another computer

    Hi!
    Instead of a intranet, we decided to post a PDF file via network mapping to keep the staff updated on the latest news.
    We use a mapped network folder as source for the documents, and one document with links so the staff can navigate to relevant information. The staff opens the PDF-file in IE.
    The problem we have is that whenever someone in the staff has opened the document in IE we are unable to edit the PDF in Word and overwrite the PDF-file that are availible to the staff.
    Is there any way that we can make the file overwritable when someone has opened it, and the person that is reading the file can simple refresh and get the updated information?
    This document will be edited by several departement managers, so it's impossible for us to use other editing tools than Office  (which they are already used to).
    Thanks in advance.

  • Textkommentare verschwinden auf dem PDF-file in Adobe Reader

    Meine Textkommentare, die ich  mit dem "Textkommentar hinzufügen"-Werkzeug auf ein PDF-Dokument schreibe, verschwinden, nachdem ich sie eingegeben habe. Im Moment des Schreibens sehe ich sie zwar noch (Bild 1); sobald ich aber mit dem Cursor woanders auf dem PDF-file hinklicke, verschwindet der Textkommentar auf der Folie (Bild 2). Er ist jedoch in der Kommentarliste rechts noch erkennbar.
    Kann mir jemand sagen, woran dies liegt? Ich würde gerne meine Textkommentare permanent auf meinem PDF-file sehen können...
    Vielen Dank im Voraus!
    Bild 1:                                                                                                                                                                        Bild 2:

    Hey Mylenium
    Deine Antwort hat leider nicht funktioniert...
    Das einzige, was bisher half, um die Kommentare wieder sichtbar zu machen, waren die zwei folgenden Schritte:
    1.) Ich öffnete ein mit (sichtbaren) Textkommentaren beschriebenes PDF-File einer Kollegin, wählte rechts in der Kommentarleiste einen Kommentar an mit einem Rechtsklick, ging auf "Eigenschaften" und wählte die Option "Eigenschaften als Standard festlegen" aus.
    2.) Ich klickte unter dem Titel Kommentarliste rechts auf "Optionen" und dann auf "Voreinstellungen Kommentare", um die Option "als Verfasser immer Benutzernamen verwenden" anzuwählen.
    Nach dem Erledigen dieser zwei Schritte kann ich geöffnete PDF-Dateien wunschgemäss mit sichtbaren Kommentaren mit mir als Verfasser bearbeiten. Sobald ich jedoch alle PDF-Files wieder geschlossen habe und neue öffne, ist alles wieder zurückgesetzt und ich muss wiederum bei Schritt 1 beginnen...
    Wie kann ich die geänderten Einstellungen permanent speichern? Oder gibt es andere Optionen zur Lösung meines Problems?
    Ich verwende übrigens Adobe Acrobat Reader XI mit Windows 8.1

  • Embeded PDF Files in Safari

    Is there a way to read pdf files that are embded in a web page using Safari for Windows? I know that I can do this with IE & Firefox for Windows, and I can also do it using Safari for OSX. Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
    - Chris

    That is not exactly what I am looking for. For example, on my company's website we embded pdf files directly into the page to be viewed. take a look at this link for reference:
    http://www.udevices.com/282882W9434-3.htm
    In the center of the page under the Catalog Number...text there is a pdf file hat is built into the page. In IE &Firefox for Windows I can see this embded box. In Safari I cannot see the file that is part of the page. The way we se som files is that they are incorporated as part of the page - not separate files to be opened up in new windows or tabs.
    I can provde you with screen shots to compare the difference between IE & Safari if that would help.

  • How to assign another application to *.pdf file?

    Hi,
    unfortunately, after upgrading firmware in my e72 I lost adobe reader 2,5 (now I have obsolete adobe reader 1.5). I found much better application designed for reading *.pdf file. Under x-plore I have changed assignment to this app, but I have no idea how to change default application in whole system, especially when I have attachment in email. It still opens in default *.pdf browser. Is there any possibility to change it?

    I Have the server-side rules setup but when I create the accounts on my iThing it only looks to the inbox.
    For example.
    I have my account that has email all coming into a single inbox
    from that inbox, I have server-side rules that move mail into the folders: domain01, domain02, and domain03
    when I add domain01's account to my phone, it only maps to the mail account's inbox - I can't find an option to map to the donain01 folder.
    The other two domains are the same; therefore, when I check on my phone, each domain shows the same inbox (which is empty)
    i can scroll down and view the full account to see all of the account's folders, but it doesn't alert me when there's mail because it's focused on the inbox.
    Instead, I would like to map the mailbox to the domain01 folder.
    THat hat make more sense?

  • Relatively slow display of pdf files?

    Hi:
    I've got an Oracle Text application that indexes and queries various file types fine, but the actual display of pdf files is pretty slow. On a 2.4GHz P4 w/1G Ram it took about 20 seconds to display it's version of a 2.5M pdf file. It takes < 10 seconds to open the file in Acrobat Reader. I am guessing it's a translation process from pdf to HTML, but is there anyting (db setting?) that I can do to speed this up? I'd hate to think how long a 10-40M pdf file would take!
    Thanks.
