Opening PDF file within IE9 browser

We are working on rolling out Reader XI to all our company.  A lot of people are getting prompted when they are trying to open a PDF file.  They get the message from Windows Internet Explorer:  What do you want to do with (name of PDF file)?  Open, Save, or Save As are the options.  We would like the PDF to open within IE9.  I have walked through making the changes to the internet options to allow this to happen and they are still getting the message.  What can we do?

See if anything in here helps: http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/display-pdf-browser-acrobat-xi.html
P.S. make sure that the users don't run the 64-bit version of IE.

  • What can I do to rectify the situation in which Firefox will not open pdf files in the browser, even though I have already used all the help suggestions to no avail?

    I have tried everything Mozilla has suggested. Still when I click on a pdf, I get the message that the browser cannot open a pdf. I have gone through the help protocol, and it does not work.
    I have uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it, and still not able to open pdf files within the browser.
    What else do I do, except go to IE or Chrome and just leave Firefox completely???

    A possible cause is the presence of a PDF plugin from an older Adobe Reader plugin in the plugins folder in the Firefox program folder.

  • Viewing PDF files within your browser

    Ever since I updated to a newer version of the reader (about a week ago), every time I try to access a pdf file within my browser (Firefox), I get the message "The version of Acrobar Reader currently running cannot view PDF files within your browser..."  Does anyone have a fix?

    I installed Adobe Acrobat Reader 9.3 last night and started having the same exact problem.  This morning I went to START and using the "Start Search" feature box typed in "Adobe" because I wanted to see if I still had any older Adobe Acrobat Reader files on my computer that were competing with 9.3.  As soon as I typed "Adobe" and clicked on the magnifying glass (or just hit "enter") I received a message that Windows was initializing Adobe Acrobat 9.3.  After it finished initializing everything worked perfectly.  The problem appears to be that Windows is not initializing the download automatically upon restart.  Maybe my fix was a fluke, but it is working fine now.

  • I removed chrome 10 and newly installed FF4 final, and I can't read PDF files within the browser. There was no problem in Chrome.

    I removed chrome 10 and newly installed FF4 final, and I can't read PDF files within the browser. There was no problem in Chrome. I can't even see the acrobat reader plugin in the plugins page. Acrobat 10 is already installed in my PC. Every time I try to read a PDF file on the web, FF tries to download it instead.

    As recommended above by Bernd Alheit, I posted this on the Adobe Reader forum. There, I received the advice to repair the installation under the help menu, which I did and it fixed the problem.
    Similar to your solution but found it's a fix found under "HELP" menu and not Add/Remove.
    Thank you.

  • Issue with opening pdf file from web browser

    I have Acrobat Pro ver 6 and Adobe Reader 9.1 on a computer.  when my user tries to open up a pdf from the web he is getting the following error message:
    "The Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a WEb Browser.  Adbe Acrobat/Reader version 8 or 9 is required.  Please exit and try again."
    What also happens is that Acrobat Pro ver 6 opens up and nothing is there.
    I am not sure why he is getting that message since Reader 9.1 is installed.
    Can any one shed some light on this for me.
    This user needs to have Acrobat and Reader on his system.  I understand that there are issues with having both.
    Also he has it set up so that any PDF is opening using the Reader 9.1.
    Thanks,

    Your PC's default reader configuration for embedded PDFs has become confused, due to multiple Adobe PDF document solutions installed on one PC.
    Solution 1:
    Go to Start > Run
    Type regedit and click OK.
    Browse to the following key: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Software\Adobe\Acrobat\Exe
    Make sure that the correct Default data value is set for the path where Adobe Reader or Acrobat are installed.
    The default installation values are:
    "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe"
    or
    "C:\Program Files\adobe\acrobat 6.0\acrobat\Acrobat.exe" (not sure about this path.  Check on your PC to be sure)
    depending on whether Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat is installed.
    Solution 2:
    Configure the browser to use Acrobat or Adobe Reader as a helper application.
    If you are using Firefox to browse the web, you can change this setting in Firefox by going to:
    Tools > Options
    Click on the "Applications" Tab.
    The first item in the list should be "Adobe Acrobat Document".  Under the Action list, click the drop down arrow and select the application you want to read PDFs within the web browser.  Click OK, and you should be done.
    If you're using Internet Explorer to view PDFs, try the below steps.
    After you configure Acrobat or Adobe Reader as a helper application, the browser starts the helper application in a separate window and displays PDF files within that window. Acrobat and Adobe Reader both include a preference that lets you specify Acrobat or Adobe Reader as the helper application.
    To configure Acrobat or Adobe Reader as a helper application:
    Start Acrobat or Adobe Reader.
    Choose Edit > Preferences.
    Select Internet on the left.
    Deselect Display PDF In Browser Using [Acrobat application], and then click OK.
    Quit Acrobat or Adobe Reader.
    The next time you select a link to a PDF file in the browser, a dialog box asks what you would like to do with the file. If you select Open It, the browser opens the PDF file in Acrobat or Adobe Reader (the helper application); if you select Save It To Disk, the browser saves the PDF file to your hard drive.

  • Parameters for opening PDF files in a browser

    I read some of the posts about making a text link from an html page to a specific location in a pdf document in the browser.  I set up the parameters, as I understand it, according to the document "Parameters for Opening PDF Files." The result from my test took me to the top of page 1, not to the bookmark on page 3 that I specified. See the link below. What is wrong with the parameters?
    http://www.tabardtheatre.org/YPASCfolder/2012/SummerYouthProgram2012.pdff#page=3&bookmark= anniejr
    You can also go to the website: http://www.tabardtheatre.org/audition.html and click on the text link (in blue).

    The PDF Open Parameters do not contain the option to link directly to a bookmark, as was mentioned, but I've developed a script that can add this functionality to your files. Have a look here, if you're interested: http://try67.blogspot.com/2011/06/acrobat-link-to-specific-bookmark-in.html

  • Can't open pdf files in Safari browser windows (bank website window) after I installed Adobe Reader 11update on my Mac last night

    I previously had Adobe Reader 9, which worked perfectly.

    Here's EXACTLY what happens:  I am in a Safari browser website and try to open a pdf file (my bank statement).  When I click on the link I get this message in a black window: "Adobe Reader.  Before viewing a PDF file in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User License Agreement, then Quit and relaunch the browser."  So I launch Adobe Reader but there is no End User License Agreement to accept.  I have done this several times with no result.  I am using a MacBook Air with OS 10.9.4 and Safari 7.0.5.

  • How can I open pdf files in safari browser without installing Adobe reader?

    I do not wish to use adobe reader. I just uninstalled it and now I can't view pdf files in preview when attempting to open the file in safari browser.  How can set safari to open any pdf files using preview application?

    Copy the text below, including the initial /
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    Switch to Finder, then use the Go menu - Go to Folder command & paste in the text, clicking Go afterwards.
    A Finder window should open, showing various plug-in files. Trash any that are for Adobe or PDF. You'll be asked for an admin name & password.

  • Adobe Reader 8.1.1 won't open PDF files from IE7 Browser

    We are using Windows XP SP2 on our network and have recently installed Adobe Reader 8.1.1 and IE7. However this has thrown up a large amount of problems as now any link, for example 'http://somesite.co.uk/somepdf.pdf' will not open a pdf file, just a blank browser page! Does anyone have any ideas as to how to fix it, or have come across this also?
    Thanks in advance,

  • I cannot open pdf files in my browser

    Adobe Reader 10.1.1 will not open pdf files from the web.  Operating system:  Mac OS X 10.6.6.  No problem with previously downloaded files.

    Hi Vikram,
    I have this trouble in Firefox, and Safari, and Chrome. I can no longer open .pdf documennts on line in any browser configuration.
    I have tried serveral browser versions and serveral Reader versions, same result. Running Mac OS 10.6.8, just after a full rebuild and this is the most annoying result.
    I do have the above suggestion checked, which I believe is the default setting, as I was always able to use a single cilck to open all .pdf files. Noticed this first with download of most current Reader. Currently have 9.5.2.
    It began when I installed most current version after the rebuild of the OS.
    Any help would be gratefully appeciated.
    Thanks,
    Jay

  • I cannot open PDF files within Firefox.

    I'm running Firefox 3.6.23 on a Macbook pro with version 10.6.8 installed. However I'm unable to open pdf files online. It works on google chrome from the same computer, just not firefox. There is a blank area where the pdf file should open, and nothing happens. I cannot download the file using firefox either. I've tried restarting and such, can you please help me?
