IE9 doesn't reflect updated PDF file but instead reflects from cached version
First, I apologise if this issue might be discussed/resolved somewhere, but if you have any solutions/ideas to what my issue might be, please help to share. And thank you in advance.
We have been using/filling PDF forms to generate dynamic FDF data. The URL/path to the PDF file is set inside the text/data of the generated FDF. The PDF file with the FDF data are shown to the browser. But with IE9, the browser always reflects cached version of PDF file, and not the updated version. This is working fine for years in IE6..IE8, the updated PDF file with the dynamic FDF data are shown correctly. But in IE9, the FDF data is dynamically updated but the PDF file still shows the old version, which I think is from the cache.
In my testing, either I emptied the IE’s cache or set the Internet Option to check for newer versions of the page then it will reflects the updated PDF File. I tried Ctrl-F5 (to force refresh) too but no avail. I used Acrobat Reader 9 & 11, both having same problem, running on Windows 7.
Hi Pat. Thanks for your reply.
Actually, I already been checking any IE9 options that might be different from IE8, and tried to change "Security" settings also but still can't get the updated PDF file. Maybe you have in mind where I can specifically check and try out?
I have tried IE10, but also encounter the same problem. sigghhhh
I have been using this for years but no problem, this PDF/FDF document application is developed/created using Acrobat Professional ver6 and FDFtoolkit.

IE 9.0 doesn't show updated PDF instead shows from cached version
IE 9.0 always shows cached version of PDF file not updated one. Can i know what is the cause of this issue in IE. Actually same issue was occur in IE 8.0 but i've changed security setting to default. As a result, IE8.0 shows updated PDF not from cache version.
But same workaround doesn't sort out this issue in IE 9.0.
I'd appreciate to providing solution to this.I was having the same issue. I don't know what CTRL+F5 is supposed to do, but it didn't seem to do anything for me.
I finally saw the updated PDF in IE 9 when I opened Internet Options from the Gear/Tools icon, going to the General Tab and the Browsing History Section, clicking on the Settings Button and changing the radio button for "Check for newer versions of the page"
to "Every Time I Visit the Webpage" instead of "Automatically." Bummer, overall longer loading times.
Since my colleagues were able to see the updated PDF in IE9 and I couldn't, it points to browser caching going on, not server caching. Deleting the Temporary Internet Files did not fix this issue. I did not have this problem in IE8 and was automatically
upgraded to IE9.
Why doesn't deleting the Temporary Internet Files delete the cached version of the PDF? Where is this cache? -
Why suddenly will Adobe not print a PDF file but will only save as .prn file I cannot print
Why suddenly will Adobe not print a PDF file but will only save as .prn file that my computer will not recognize? This is a new problem never experienced before. I have tried updating all versions of Adobe Reader but still no results.
Turn off the "print to file" option.

Transferred certain files to my new Mac from my old computer via memory stick.Can open PDF files but not xlr,aww or wps ones.The important ones are in xlr format.Is there a solution please?
My guess is they don't care. Most likely they're illiterate and don't know what a colon is for. They probably think it's a little-used character. Remember: these are the people who don't know the difference between "deprecate" and "depreciate".
I have the same colon problem as you do. But it's not the biggest problem I have encountered in Lion. If it was only that I'd be Mr. Delighted with Lion. There's worse than having a colon - uh - that won't cooperate. A lot worse, in Lion. -
Safari doesn't open the PDF file (articles, book page, etc). It appears a black page. Before that it was working perfectly. Thank for your help
Try this ...
Open a Finder window then from the menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Click Go.
If you see the: AdobePDFViewer plugin (or anything Adobe related) in the Internet Plug-Ins folder, move it to the trash.
Restart your Mac and try opening a PDF file. -

Opening in the side bar is the default for bookmarks that are created via a link or button on a website.<br />
You can check the Properties of a bookmark via the right-click context menu in the side bar (Ctrl+B; Cmd+B on Mac).<br />
In the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks) you can click the More button in the Details pane at the bottom right.<br />
Make sure that "Load this bookmark in the side bar" is not selected.<br /> -
we have a mac laptop and dont have any problems with pdf files but our imac will not open them. any suggestions?
Back up all data.
In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again. -

I thought I had Adobe stuff. I am not computer savvy at all, so I need to speak to someone who can guide me through this situation. I thought I had an Adobe PDF File, but I guess not. When I went to print taxes, the blank forms printed, but no tax information I typed in. Please have someone call me. My number is (909) 864-1150. Thank you.
