Acrobat Pro not opening PDF files when I double click on them- It only works if I bring up the program-.

I've installed a trial version of Acrobat XI Pro. It will open the file if I hit control->open with->Acrobat Pro Luis: but if I double click on the document it only brings up the Acrobat XI Pro window with the "Open a Recent File", I've changed the "Open With" option on "Get Info" and still can't open the PDF files with a double click. Can anyone help me out? Thanks! LAGA

When I double click the file after Acrobat is opened nothing happens...
The PDF file only opens if I start the acrobat program then look for the PDF file or any PDF Files and then I am able to open them.

Custom RH9 WebHelp skin: Problem opening PDF file from custom button

Hi, I've been troubleshooting and checking forums trying to figure out how to get a PDF file to open from a custom button on my WebHelp skin. It worked for me once upon a time, but I changed something in the document and tried to upload the new version and it has errored out ever since.
I want to have the ability to open the PDF in a new window from the custom button (called 'Printable PDF' on my skin), so I am using the following custom JavaScript in the 'Click On' field of the the custom button's components: window.open('print_test.pdf','printWindow','menubar=0,resizable=0,width=900,height=500,scr ollbars=1'); I know the script is good because I have the same script for the Support custom button and it works great. The only difference between those scripts is the Support script calls an .html file instead of a PDF and the window names says 'supportWindow' instead of 'printWindow'.
I've tried deleting and recreating the custom button, changing the JavaScript with a developer's help, generating the help on another machine thinking it was a glitch with my browser (using IE8) or RoboHelp license, and combing the help files numerous times. I've also ensured that the PDF file is stored in the skin and project folders along with the other project files/folders. I've used previous versions of RoboHelp and had no problems attaching a Word document and PDF, so I'm wondering if this is a bug in RH9?? Especially since it worked for me initially. Any assistance and/or fresh ideas are welcomed! Thank you!

Hello again
Happy I was able to help.
MOTW is only present and affects things when you are running content off your local C drive. It's value is in preventing that Yellow Information Bar and all that from appearing when you are using IE. Once you publish content to a server and access it that way you are in a different security zone and MOTW has no influence either way. So there would be no adantage to enabling it before publishing to a server. The only reason you might want to consider enabling it would be if you were copying the WebHelp to everyone's hard drive and having them run it from their hard drives.
Make sense?
Hope so... Rick

After activating "Click-to-play" plug-ins, I cannot open pdf files.

In the latest release of Firefox, information about how to prevent plug-ins from loading automatically was in the release notes. I activated this in about:config. (Click-to-play).
After that, I cannot open pdf files! When I click on a link all I get is an empty window. Reloading page don't help.
What I can do, is to click on the button next to the awesome bar and set that plug-ins will always load automatically for this page. Then the pdf file loads.
Another work around is to copy the link and paste it in IE.
Is this a bug with "click-to-play"?

Thanks cor-el. I have read the various bug reports and it is indeed the same. Has been known for a while...
Anyway, I find no mention of the work-around: "Click on the button next to the awesome bar and set that plug-ins will always load automatically for this page."
I don't know if there is a place to give that feedback.

Unable to open PDF Files with adobe reader VI

I have downloaded the latest version of Adobe Reader VI I am still not able to open PDF Files. When I click on the file I get a blank window with a little black box inside a White X! This black box appears in the upper left hand corner of the blank window! Please any help to overcome this issue is welcomed...Rick

You are not addressing Adobe here, just fellow users, and you are not providing enough information about your problem. Based on the little you say, I would sauy that you can try using this tool to first remove all traces of Reader from your computer:

Then, you can download the full offline Reader installer from

Cannot open pdf files using optonline email

PDF attachments to optonline emails do not open. It was possible at one time to open PDF files by right double clicking the file bar and selecting "reload page" but that no longer works.

Hi FRANKIMOSSI,
Have you checked to see if your PDF add-on is up to date? I'd take a look at [[Opening PDF files within Firefox]]. There is a lot of information in there and it lists a couple of different PDF add-ons. I'd try both to see if it is localized to just one.
Hopefully this helps!

Have to click multiple times to open PDF files with Reader XI

Having issues opening pdf files in Adobe Reader XI. Many times I have to double click 3 or 4 times before the document will display on my screen. This is even more of an issue when trying to open a pdf in a browser, and will often cause IE to crash. Every time I try to open a pdf file there is a process that is started, so I end up with a stack of AcroRd32.exe processes running with nothing to show for it. I tried re-installing Reader, removing Acrobat 8 Standard, etc with no success. OS is Windows 7, SP1. Any help out there?

You can't have both Acrobat 8 and Reader XI installed at the same time. They're not compatible with one another. Acrobat XI and Reader XI is fine, though.
Also, Acrobat 8 is not compatible with Windows 7...

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to open PDF file on Acrobat Reader X in SharePoint Document Library.
We need to provide the OpenControl key in the DocIcon.xml and clients should use Acrobat X or Reader X to leverage.
Here is a blog for your reference:
