Making  adobe my default for downloads

QWhen I download a file in PDF, it insists on going to Serif Page plus to open up. I want it to go to Adobe Reader 8 by default. How do I do this?

Associate the PDF file extension with Adobe Reader.

  • IPhone not making its own album for downloaded photos

    Why iphone dont do this?
    I always download lots of photo from different apps and why they all go to "Camera roll" instead of making a new album for the photos?
    example. i downloaded a photo from viber, iphone should create an album named "Viber" on the Photo because the photo is from there and if its from facebook its named "Facebook" or from the internet "Download". If you guys know what i mean, because its like a trash can 1 basket with different things.
    and what im asking is album of photos for each apps.
    Is there a way or something that can do that?
    Android does this.. Im not comparing them, just saying..

    Dear ecarlivan,
    I agree with you absolutely, I have the same problem and dont be sorry to compare with android, because Apple in his great wish to be very original loosing some quality on functional side. I become Iphone 5s user two weeks ago and day by day I notice more and more things that they are not right. And even here i dont see any wish from apple people to change something.
    Sorry to say but I am very disappointed.
    Only good appearance.

  • Will Adobe charge me for downloading their programs?

    Hi so I started a one year subscription to help me with my college work from home, and I downloaded Illustrator and In Design and Photoshop, and didn't see that it was charging me any more than it was originally, so does it mean that, as long as I have a subscription that is paid to Adobe, I can download and use whichever program I need?
    Just making sure as I was never completely sure about subscriptions on here
    Thanks

    Thanks man,
    I've currently got a Creative Cloud Student and Teacher Edition subscription for one year, so does that count as a complete plan? (I'm really quite new to the whole Adobe thing to be honest, I just downloaded and used whatever programs we used in college)

  • The link Adobe sent me for downloading CS5 didn't work- and this is how they suggest I fix it

    I just bought an iMac and wanted to transfer my CS5 to it. The new iMacs do not have disk drives. So, I'm trying to do it over the enternet. I called Adobe, and they sent me a link to download and told me to follow the instructions. I did. Nothing happened. I called again, they sent me the same link, told me to download a different file. I did. Nothing happened... well after 5 hours of downloading, it wouldn't install because it's from an "unidentified developer." Great. I called again. They said they couldn't help because they no longer support CS5. Even better. I was directed to the forum to fix my problem. So, could anyone please help me figure out how to download the product already own? I've been trying to get this to work for 3 day, and all I'm getting is the run around.
    Please help me.

    No. I tried the "activation-network-i ssues" before 2 times.
    0. Patch installed
    1. I have/had internet connection
    2. I can call https pages
    3. drivers/etc/Hosts was/are clean.
    4. Current User > Trusted Root Certificate Authorities > Certificates is installed/enabled and the correct fields are checked
    5. Firewall was/is turned complety off.
    I cannot uninstall AAM. Because i can't find it in "Deinstallation Tool" of Win8. It is not listes. There is only Adobe Flash Player listed.
    I removed AAM via adobe cleaner tool. And installed it again.  And this helped not too.
    Any ideas how i can solve the problem?

  • How to make iMovie the default for importing from video camera?

    I successfully imported 5 or 6 mini discs from the video camera, then on the next download attempt I saw a pop-up box. The box said something like "what program do you want as the default for downloading?" I was thinking iMovie, but apparently clicked iTunes (too many iTerms), and now when I put the camera into PC CONNECT mode, iMovie won't start up as it had before. How do iReverse my mistake and make iMovie the default again.
    P.S. - I already tried Preferences in iMovie and in Finder.

    If you are talking about having the default be Hebrew-Qwerty, then just make sure that in system preferences/language & text/input sources you have only one box checked, the one for Hebrew-Qwerty.
    There is also an opportunity to choose this during initial setup, you have to click on a button to have it show you all the keyboard options, I can't remember.

  • Making Adobe 7.0.5 the default for .pdf files

    I was advised that the way to get Adobe 7.0.5 to be the default, instead of 5.0, was to delete the Adobe applications & files in my system, library, and user folders, including the 7.0.5 app. itself. Then, after everything relating to Adobe is gone, I should re-install 7.0.5 and it would become the default.
    I also heard that Spotlight won't find every Adobe component or extention, so I'd have to do a detailed search and delete each one that way.
    Does this sound right?
    Can't I just delete the 5.0 folder in the Applications (Mac OS 9) folder and have everthing associated with 5.0 gone? Isn't that the beauty of having a Mac?
    Thanks,

    Hi Greg
    You were poorly advised. Deleting Adobe apps is a headache and completely irrelevant when it comes to making an app the default for a file type.
    Control-click a .pdf file, choose Get Info. In the Info window click the Open With drop down list, choose the app you want, and then click Change All underneath it.
    That should do it. You might find that there is more than one type of .pdf file and you might need to perform this action again at some time, but this should do the job.
    And yes, you can just delete the Acrobat Reader 5.0 folder.

  • Set default PDF extension for Downloaded Forms - Collaborator

    Is there a way of making .PDF the deafult file extension for downloaded forms?
    I'm trying to dteremine if this feature is controlled by the actual subscription type pr the access type.
    I have a Basic User Account setup as a Collaborator on a form which I author under a Plus subscription. I would like the default file type to be .PDF for any forms that are saved with their own unique name. However, unless I include the .PDF as part of the file name, the file saves without an extension.
    Is there a way that I can set this as a default for the Collaborator because having to remeber to add the file extension is a pain.

    Please see my response in your other post of the same question: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1343769?tstart=0

  • Making Flash Player Default Program for .flv Files

    I'd like to use Adobe Flash Player as my default program to open .flv files.  How do I find the flash player executable file on my computer?  I have the latest flash player successfully installed on my computer (Win7, 64-bit, Firefox) but cannot locate the executable file when I use the find program to use with this file type browse command.  Any ideas on where it may be located?  I did not see it in any of the Adobe folders in the program files (x86) folder.  Thanks for your help.

    Flash Player is a browser add-on, not an executable player.
    There is a standalone player (Projector) that you can download from http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html, but this player can only play .swf files.
    There used to be an Adobe Media Player to play .flv files, but is is no longer available.  Use a 3rd-party player like VLC Media Player to play .flv files.

  • I'm installing Adobe CS2 as a download.  After the first 'disk' is installed, the Installer asks for 'CD 2' to be loaded.  How do I get around this?  No CD; only 'disk' files downloaded.

    I need advise on installing Adobe CS2 as a download.  The Installer is looking for CD 2 but I don't have a CD.  It's a file downloaded and saved to Programs on my hard drive.  Adobe CS2 is no longer supported by Adobe Support.  Someone out there must have run across this problem before.  Help, please.

    all the extracted files should be placed in the same directory.  by default they fail to extract in the same directory so you will need to manually move them.
