Open PDF from Projector on Mac OSX

Hi,
I need to make a hybrid CD-Rom that has PDFs. I want to
launch the PDF in Acrobat, not a browser (they interactive and have
bookmarks etc). I can get it to work on the PC side with no problem
but am having trouble on the Mac.
I've made an applescript that works, and have it in the
"fscommand" folder.
However, I can't get the Flash projector to launch it. I'm
using this code on a button;
quote:
on (release) {
fscommand("exec", "testing.app");
It's a disk image. I can't work out why it doesn't work and
it is driving me insane.
Any help greatly appreciated.

  • I cannot open pdf files on my mac

    can anyone help me find out how I can open pdf files on my mac? I used to be able to open them and all of a sudden, whenever I link on a pdf file, it directs me to a blank screen. Thanks!

    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.

  • Safari hijacked by Adobe Reader - cant open pdfs from Safari

    I would greatly appreciate any help cant seem to find this exact problem elsewhere.
    I have a Macpro (new tower) running  10.9.4
    A few days ago I received an email from a trusted friend which included a link. I followed the link which asked me to download Adobe Reader which i foolishly did. Since then when I try to open a PDF from Safari I get the following message "Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User Licence Agreement, then Quit and relaunch the browser"
    Please note I can still open PDFs from the Finder and other browser's (e.g. Opera) also allow me to download
    I went to the Adobe site and downloaded Reader but it wont let me complete the installation. I fear my Mac has been infected by a trojan etc and can't seem to find out how to get around this.
    So far I have tried
    1) went to /Library/Internet Plug-ins - but nothing there
    2) reinstall of Mavericks
    Any help appreciated. I suppose a clean reinstall would help but don't want to do that just yet

    Open a Finder Window.
    Click on the Go in the menu bar.
    Press on option on the keyboard, "Library" will appear. Click on that.
    In the new Finder Window that it opens up, or the one that you have opened already. It'll show that particular folder. In that folder is Internet Plug-ins.
    Check to see if Adobe is in there. If so, delete it and reboot.
    I honestly thought it was in the same folder that you tried, but I don't remember at the moment. So my instructions are just a shot in the dark.

  • How to make a image file from Pre installed Mac osx ? "PLEASE HELP :("?

    hey guys ..Thanks u for the time.
    So i have this eMac which has crashed and i have got may hands on another eMac.. and it works
    ... the only problem is.. I can take my eMac to the working eMac to do Target Mode or any thing...
    So Help me..
    My question is .. Is there a way to make a .DMG image file from pre installed mac osx OR
    Is there a way to may a recovery disc??

    You can use Carbon Copy Cloner to copy everything from the working eMac onto the non-working eMac while the working eMac is running. If your eMac will still do target mode into the working one, you can download the above software, select the booted drive as the source drive, and your eMac's drive as the target, however it is possible this will not work.
    When you say your eMac crashed, what exactly happened?  It is possible that the hard drive in your eMac failed or is failing, so in order to get it running again you would need to replace the hard drive.  On the eMac, this repair is somewhat involved, and you have to be very careful because it exposes the CRT, which has several areas which can be extremely dangerous to touch if not properly handled.  CRTs retain a great deal of voltage, even when unplugged, sometimes for weeks, and they can give you a nasty shock if you touch them in the wrong place.
    Also keep in mind that cloning from the working computer to the non-working computer will ERASE any data that you have stored on that eMac, so if you don't have it backed up anywhere, you may want to attempt that with target mode before proceeding.
    Good luck!

  • Unable to open pdf from some particular shared folder which is not in domain

    Encountered a strange issue here.
    We have copuple of users who login with Citrix session.
    They are able to open pdf from all the shared folders but not one which is not in domain.
    User are able to open all other files viz. doc, excel, notepad and so from that particular folder.
    Issue with all the pdf files and not only one particular file.
    Double clicking the pdf file starts the process AcroRd32.exe but the file does not open.
    If an already running AcroRd32.exe process is there (means if Adobe Reader is already open), then it's possible to open the pdf files from that folder.
    Moreover, came across one strange thing.
    I created a shortcut to one of the pdf file from that folder within the same folder.
    And it was possible to open pdf file from that shortcut but not directly :S
    Gives error: "Acrobat failed to connect DDE server" after about 20 mins if we try to open file directly.
    Googled a bit and found that issue can be resolved by navigating to
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\acrobat\shell\open\ddeexec\application and changing the Key "AcroviewA10"  to  "AcroviewR10
    But when I navigated to the mentioned registry there was no AcroviewA10 but instead it was just Acroview.
    Adobe Reader version: 9.5.5
    I will be really grateful if somebody can provide solution for this.

    What happens when you open the Adobe app, then tell it to open the file?
    How big are the attachments?  There are limitations to the size allowed to be sent:
    Email Provider
    Size Limit
    Gmail
    25Mb
    Outlook
    20Mb
    Yahoo
    25Mb
    Are you sending the files to yourself?  Not sure how you are emailing files from a website...
    Are the PDF's password-protected, or some kind of copyrighted eBook perhaps?  Can you email other files successfully, or are PDF's the only files that don't work?
    Perhaps using a free Cloud service as an intermediary might work better.

  • Can't open PDF's on my Mac coming in on MS Outlook 2010. Reinstalled Adobe software 4 x and still get "Adobe PDF Preview Handler" error message.

    Can't open PDF's on my Mac coming in on MS Outlook 2010. Reinstalled Adobe software 4 x and still get "Adobe PDF Preview Handler" error message.

    No. Reader will not damage files. It is only meant to read pdf files. PDF files are frequently damaged when sent as email due to encoding issues.

  • Can't open PDFs from Outlook Access denied

    We are trying to open PDFs from Outlook in Reader XI.  Even after disabling protected mode, continue to receive the message "There was an error opening this document.  Access denied.".  Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    A. Fix One PC
    Launch Adobe Acrobat Reader X
    Go to: Edit > Preferences...
    Click on "General" in the left pane.
    Uncheck "Enable Protected Mode at startup"
    You will prompted with a dialog box to remind you to close the application for the change to go into effect. Click Yes.
    Click OK to save your change.
    Exit Adobe Reader
    B. Fix Several PCs in Your Organization
    Following the above steps aren't practical if you have Adobe Acrobat installed on 1,000+ computers in 30 regional offices! Push this registry setting using your standard software deployment software.
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\10.0\Privileged]

  • Installed Pro 9 and Reader 9 now cannot open pdf from web, but can from an email?

    Installed Both Adobe Acrobat 9 professional and reader 9 yesterday on co worker machine. Went to open a pdf attachement in email no problem. Went to web to download and open a pdf and will not let her, giving co worker the error message need reader 8 or 9 to open this document!
    have unistalled 9 reader and reinstalled same problem.
    So then uninstalled reader 9 and can now open pdf from the web
    My machine has both on and no problems.
    Thank YOU for your help!!

    It may be that you will need to uninstall Reader and Repair Acrobat after the uninstall. Adobe does not recommend the installation of both products. Since you have already done the uninstall and things work fine with just Acrobat, leave things alone as that is the recommended installation.

  • Why can't I open and retrieve my files from iPhoto and my address book after importing the files from my Power mac G5 to my new Mac Pro? I get a warning that says the new OS on my Pro doesn't open files from a Power Mac. Any idea how I can fix this?

    Why can't I open and retrieve my files from iPhoto and my Address Book after importing the files from my Power Mac G5 to my new Mac Pro? I get a warning that says the new OS on my Pro doesn't open files from a Power Mac. Any idea how I can fix this?

    For your addressbook, export the files to vCard on the PowerMac, then bring them over to your Mac Pro. For your iPhoto, copy the Users -> yourname -> Pictures folder to your Desktop on the Mac Pro, and open iPhoto on the Mac Pro holding the command and option keys.  Select the library file from that Pictures folder and open it.  It should import all the pictures into iPhoto as part of the rebuild process.  Other PowerPC to Intel migration issues are covered here: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2295

  • Access Denied Bug Opening PDFs from the DFS in Reader X

    Hi,
    Do you have any timelines for when a bugfix will be released for the Access Denied problems when opening PDFs from a DFS share with Protected Mode enabled? We were hoping to make use of the new sandboxing technology within the corporate environment, as recent issues with security vulnerabilities (in Adobe Reader 9, the authplay.dll issues) would be mitigated by the technology. However, as the Protected Mode does not work when opening from the DFS there is no point in moving to Adobe Reader X from 9.4.1 at the moment.
    It would be good to have a release date so that we can start taking advantage of the technology as soon as we are able to.

    There's no dates, or indications of when this will be done. Thanks for your useful assistance though.

  • Acrobat reader XI cannot open pdfs from IE9

    My pc has IE9, windows 7.  After I installed Acrobat reader XI, I can no longer open pdfs from a secure website.  Can anyone help?

    "Internal Error Occurred" appears when .pdf is opened from Outlook 2010 email
    I am absolutely pulling out my hair over this one!!
    PC/Win 7 64bit/Adobe XI/Office 2010
    I have tried Uninstalling and re-installing
    I have tried using an adobe software removal tool
    I have tried modifying the security settings in reader
    I've tried running repair on MS Office
    If you open the .pdf from an email directly, it opens Reader with the error "Internal Error Occurred"
    If you drag and drop the .pdf onto the desktop, and then open it, it opens.
    If you open Adobe Reader FIRST, then open the .pdf from the email, it opens fine.
    ONLY when you open a .pdf from an email with Adobe Reader closed (so Outlook is asking AR to open first, and then present the .pdf) is it behaving this way.
    Hypothesis: Outlook 2010 does not like to open Adobe Reader.
    SO....tell me all of you brilliant geniuses? How do I solve this puzzle and become an end user's hero?
