MAC OSX version 10.4.11 and I can't seem to open any PDF
I'm having this problem as well. I have both Acrobat Professional 8.1.2 and Adobe Reader 8.1.2 installed with the proper internet plug-in, using OS 10.4.11. When I try to open a pdf file in Safari I get a window asking me to choose an application to open the file, but both applications are dimmed and cannot be selected. I have tried re-installing Acrobat Reader, but without success. In Firefox I simply get a blank, darkened window. __Previously, before I installed Leopard and was using Tiger, I had Acrobat Reader 7.0 as well as AR 8.0 installed, and I was only able to select AR 7.0, but it worked. Now nothing works. This is a serious problem that Adobe needs to address!

    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    and in the UK:
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
    Check via Software Update whether further updates are required.
    You should now see the App Store icon, and you now need to set up your account:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
    To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
    You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

  • My friend says:I can open Safari OK, but as soon as I try to open Google, Safari shuts down. It either does so immediately, or once I type an address or search name into Google.Mac OSX version 10.3.9, and Safari 1.3.2

    On behalf of a friend (who obviously cannot get on-line):
    I can open Safari OK, but as soon as I try to open Google, Safari shuts down. It either does so immediately, or once I type an address or search name into Google. The systems no longer seem to be compatible. All was well until about three weeks ago. I've pressed the Safari Reset button several times to try that, to no avail.
    The operating system is Mac OSX version 10.3.9, and Safari is 1.3.2.
    Is there a solution? He does say his iMac is old and the OS antedeluvian
    Would welcome any thoughts!
    B

    Sorry to say it, but he is correct!
    Solution? Either update the OS and Safari if possible, or start saving!

  • HT1338 I cannot open any pdf files on my mac book air.  I used to be able to.  I downloaded osx mountain lion and it still doesn't work.  any suggestions?

    I cannot open any pdf files on my mac book air.  I used to be able to open them.  It was suggested that I get OS Mountain Lion and I did.  still can't.  Any ideas? 

    You can download Adobe Reader from adobe.com.  The Mac OSX uses its "reader" to open PDF files without the Adobe Reader.  If you downloader adobe reader, it should open all PDF files.  Hope this helps.

  • Adober Reader suddenly won't open any PDF files (Mac)

    I had an old version, I downloaded the latest one, upgraded to the newest, even tried taking that one out and downloading an older version. It doesn't matter which version I seem to have, it won't open any pdf files from the web.
    I use a Mac, and Safari. It used to always load PDF files fine, one random place said I had to update it so I did and since then, lately it'd crash and close all Safari windows when loading a PDF or trying to copy something from a PDF. The smart Mac message I have says it could be related to an Adobe Plug in. However, now it won't even load PDF files at all, it always goes to a white page. Nothing happens.
    What do I do?? I can't even save the PDF's as individual files and view then in Preview as an alternative option. It's a link online and normally would work. What happened??
    HELP!
    I have a Mac OS X Version 10.5.8
    I've always used Safari, it's Version 5.0.5 (5533.21.1 if that means anything).
    Acrobat Reader, currently an old version 9.4.0 download. BUT, I had also the 10.0.1 version which also doesn't work. When I had that 10.0.1 version and checked for updates, there was an update (.3 I think?) and I did that and that also doesn't work!
    Why did it suddenly stop working?
    What can I do to fix it ASAP?
    Only with 9.4.0 version I can go to Help and "Repair Adobe Reader Installation" - I click that and the only box I can select is "Adobe PDFViewer Safari Plugin - View, fill-in and collaborate on Adobe PDFs within Safari"  - I click continue and it tells me there's "No missing components detected. Repairs are not needed." The only option is to click "OK".
    With any newer version of Adobe Reader, under Help there is no option to "Repair Adobe Reader Installation". So... I can't even try that with a new version.
    I am at a loss for solutions. Hope someone here can help! Thanks!

    There are several things you can do. My first step would be to repair permissions. If that doesn't work log on as a different user. If all works properly then you have a corrupt preference file (most likely) or a corrupt user font installed in your user Library (less likely). If that doesn't work download Applejack. Have it repair the disk, remove all system caches and user caches. Then have it check all system and user preference files. Remove any preference files that are corrupt. Reboot and see if your system is working properly.

  • I cannot open any pdf files! I used to be able to. Have a mac.

    I cannot open any pdf files. I used to be able to. If I open them I get a blank screen. Have a mac. Help!!!!!

    Hi Charlie,
    First, thanks for responding. These are mostly emails with attachments or documents that I have. I download them and once I open them the page is blank. I also cannot look at them in Preview. The same problem. I called Apple and they said they assume I have an older software version. They are going to send new software. I am not really sure this will solve my problem. If you have any suggestions, please let me know. Thanks!

  • Hello, I have transferred my Acrobat XI Pro from old MAC to the new one. After the transfer can not open any PDF file. Any idea how to solve this?

    Hello, I have transferred my Acrobat XI Pro from old MAC to the new one. After the transfer can not open any PDF file. Any idea how to solve this?

    Hey ilyaz20360341,
    Could you please specify how exactly did you transfer Acrobat from one MAC to other.
    You might need to deactivate the software from your old machine and then activate it on the new one with the same serial number (for Acrobat license) or Adobe credentials (for Acrobat subscription).
    If you have done the same way, then let me know if you are able to open Acrobat itself.
    Do you get any specific error message while opening a PDF?
    Hope to get your response.
    Regards,
    Anubha

    I have checked the cooling fan, and it's working, and I took it to an IT technician and he said my hardware is allright, so is it a problem from the OS it self??
    OS X(10.8.5)

    Restart with the Option key held down and the Mac OS X install disk inserted, provide the firmware password, click on the DVD, press the button with the straight arrow, access the firmware settings, disable the password, and use FireWire Target Disk mode. If you can't do that or it doesn't work, contact Apple.

    Hi,
    This is how App Store app shows now when an app is downloading. If you cannot download anything, go to Settings > iTunes & App Store, remove your Apple ID, and set it again. That should work.
    Hope that helps.

  • 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

    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.

    under input Device see if your mic is marked. If not: ✔️
    2. Click the apple top left/System Prefs./click on the Sound speaker:
    under Input highlight microphone.
    3. When you have factime on go to video above scroll and see if your mic is marked ✔️
