Non helpful screen announcement - "Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept end user license agreement then quit and relaunch browser."
I recently updated my Mac operating system and now regularly get the above message whenever I click on website pdf(s). I have tried to relaunch Adobe Reader - but nothing remotely resembling an end user license agreement ever shows up. I can find nothing on the Adobe "help" sections that mentions anything about this problem. Any suggestions?
Tried this any number of times. I double click on the icon and nothing comes up - there is no lead, no directions, nothing comes up. I click on page top menu bar and can access legal notice page - but no end user agreement page shows up. Do I have to delete all Adobe Reader software and start over with a fresh download?

Nothing to do with the download; you need to open Adobe Reader once after the install is complete, and accept the EULA. -
Presently using iMac: OS X 10.9.4 (13E28)
1. Open website; click drop-down and this appears:
Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe reader and accept the end-user license agreement, then quit and relaunch the browser.
2. Using an iMac, open founder and click downloads
3. Click AdbeRdr1013_en_US-1.dmg Apr. 4 2012, 7:11 AM 73 MB Disk Image Feb 27, 2013, 10:00 AM
4. Screen indicates it is opening Adobe reader X installer.package
5. Click this icon
6. Open Adobe installer; double-click install Adobe reader; putting password to access; click next; Note: Application is already installed; click finish.
Screen indicates: thank you and enjoy Adobe reader. Click Return to Prior Website. Click install now: total size 99.1 MB
Initializing arises with the following information: to proceed, open your download folder and locate the Adobe reader installer file, named Adobe reader installer [ XXX].dmg
It takes me back to steps that have already taken of locating down load file double-click to mount the disk image; double-click install Adobe reader; agreed by clicking open; entering name and password and clicking okay.
Did this several times with no success.

I am getting this response when I am trying to open a file: Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User License Agreement, then Quit and relaunch the browser.” What do I do? I have opened this up in the past without a problem.
Back up all data.
If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, there should be a setting in its preferences such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected. Otherwise do as follows.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others.
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. -

Getting error: Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User License Agreement, then Quit and relaunch the browser. I just purchased and installed Adobe acrobat pro for the Mac today.
Hi Tbeirne,
If you just want to save a pdf opened in Safari to your machine use the save as option from within the Reader plugin window. Just click on any of the buttons highlighted in below screenshots to Save a pdf at any location on your machine.
or
To summarize the issue, if you had opened an Internet PDF in a browser plug-in, you must use the save feature in the plug-in, not the Safari File > PDF Export, or File > Save As...
Please let us know if this solution works for you and you are able to save and view PDFs files locally.
Regards,

Whenever I try to view a PDF file, I'm getting the error message "Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User License Agreement, then Quit and relaunch the browser." I have the new Adobe Reader but am still getting this message.
Even after launching Reader and accepting the EULA? Most strange.

this has happened since I did the free trial for Adobe XI Pro. After the trial there didn't seem to be an option to return to just using the reader. I tried to uninstall adobe XI Pro but perhaps I didn't do it correctly because I have got this message ever since I tried to reinstall adobe reader. Is there another way to find the EULA if it does't automatically come up when you launch the product?

I keep getting this error message and I don't know how to do what it is asking, so I can open documents on line.
PatsyTHANK YOU!
I wasn't sure how to find the applications folder, but once I found it, I was able to find the Adobe Reader icon and when I clicked on that, the agreement came up!
Ugh! You'd think they'd make that sucker come up automatically after installation, instead of making people look for it.
Thanks again! -

How to view PDF documents because say you must launch adobe reader and accept the end user license
I have a question about to display the PDF documents, could you tell me how can I display it?, I have this message that say before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User License Agreement, then Quit and relaunch the browser
I've got the same issue and I want to use Preview to read pdfs on Safari. At some point I had Acrobat Reader installed, but deleted it and everything associated with it. However no matter what, I get: "Before launching pdf documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the end user license agreement, then quit and relaunch the browser."
This means I am forced to use Reader, when I don't want to. There seems no way to default to Preview to read pdfs on Safari, even after deleting Adobe Reader completely.
Anyone have a clue how to fix this?
