Opening PDF's with CS6 installed

Hello - I have a laptop that we recently purchased within the last month. We purchased Adobe Acrobat X from the OEM. Then we purchased a full licensed copy of CS6.
Problem: When the user attempts to open a PDF, say from an email, the user is presented a blank screen in Acrobat. Acrobat recognizes that it should be used for opening PDF's (double checked this in control panel) but does not display any content. Now, if we right-click the PDF and choose OPEN WITH, Acrobat is listed but Illistrator is listed as well. I can then select Illistrator to open the PDF and can see the content in the PDF.
I would like to not use Illistrator to open PDF's.
Thank you.

I have no problem opening your file using Reader 11.0.08.
If you are trying to open the file in a browser, which one is that? See http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/pdf-browser-plugin-configuration.html

After installing a new motherboard, my imac opens pdf files with colorsync. How do I reset it to open them with Adobe?

After installing a new motherboard, my imac opens pdf files with colorsync. How do I reset it to open them with Adobe?

That makes sense Dennis. I did that but was unable to find Adobe Reader in my Applications folder. Of note though is that after a restart, the problem seems to have gone away. So, disaster averted. Thanks for responding though. It's nice to have help on this stuff.

I can't open PDF files with adobe flash player

I have installed it and whenever I try to open pdf files it says I need to agree with your liscens and you do that automatically when you download it. I have followed all your instructions on your website and uninstalled it and installed again, but I can't open pdf files with it. I don't know what the problem is exactly, but it's really frustrating..

Flash Player CANNOT open PDFs because they AREN'T Flash Documents.
Adobe Reader opens PDFs.
To accept the license agreement (NOT the one you accepted to download or install - the one for USE)
Windows:
Go to: C/Program Files(x86)/Adobe/Reader 11.0/Reader and double click the eula.exe file. The license agreement will open for you to accept.
Mac:
Go to: Mac HD/Applications and double click the Reader app. The license agreement will open THE FIRST TIME you open it.

Cannot open pdf files with Firefox's built-in pdf viewer

This just started (I think) with Firefox 37.01. This is on Win7-X64. I cannot open pdf files with the Firefox built-in pdf viewer. If I click on the file or try to open it from within Firefox, it brings up a "opening filename.pdf" message. If I select the "Open with" radio button as 'Firefox (default),' it just keeps looping on this process; it never opens. In Tools => Options => Applications, Portable Document Format (PDF) is indicated as 'Preview in Firefox.' I've never had any other PDF viewer installed on this computer. I've tried disabling all plug-ins and extensions, but it still doesn't work. I searched for solutions but haven't found any for this specific issue.
Thanks for the help.

Hello,
Have you tried, to start Firefox in safemode you can do so by following these steps
'''If Firefox is open,''' you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
* Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
'''If Firefox is not running,''' you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".
;[[Image:SafeMode-Fx35]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.

Cannot open PDF files with Reader XI message appears Adobe Reader has stopped working

Cannot open PDF files with Reader XI message appears Adobe Reader has stopped working. A problem has caused the program to stop working

Which Operating system you are using?
Can you open Adobe Reader by itself? If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)] and then try to open the file.

Outlook2013 email message goes behind main Outlook window when opening PDF attachment with Reader 11

Problem statement: Outlook 2013 email message goes behind main Outlook window when opening PDF attachment with Adobe Reader 11.0.3
Environment: Windows 8 x64; Office 2013; Adobe Reader 11.0.3
Steps to reproduce bug:
1. Open Outlook 2013
2. Open email message with PDF attachment
3. Open PDF attachment (with Adobe Reader as default PDF viewer)
4. Close Adobe Reader
Results: Original email message with PDF attacment now sits behind the main Outlook window
Expected results: Original email message should be on top of main Outlook window as it was when opening the PDF attachment
Note: Adobe Acrobat Profession performs as expected - the original email is on top of the main Outlook window - This only seems to be a problem with Adobe Reader.
Has anyone else experience this problem? If so, have you found a work-around?
Thanks,
Mike

From: new window opens behind existing window - how to modify?
I had this problem happening in Outlook.
If I tried to open an email, it would open behind the main Outlook window.
The same happened if I opened a link in the email - it would open behind the mail.
The fix that was suggested to me was so simple that I still don't believe it.
Right click on the task bar and unlock the taskbar, then lock it again.
Close down Outlook and re-start it.
Problem solved! Just dont know how or why.

It worked for me with Win 7 and OL 2003. Why? Who cares ... It is working.

Acrobat 7.1 IE plugin cannot open .pdf Files with mt/application/octet-stream

Hi Folks,
we have some problems to open pdf - files via Hyperlink in an IE Explorer. this files get from the web-server the MIME-Type "octet-stream".
the only option is to save and then open the pdf files. But we want to open the pdf files directly IN the IE. the option to open it not in IE is not possible because then another application will not work.
Is it generally possible to open an pdf File with an octet-stream MIME-Type with the IE-Pluin, and if Yes is ther any possible configuration we could try.
Thanks for your help
regards
Felix

Hi Bill,
we already tried to change that checkbox that solves the problem but we get new problems with other applications, so this way is also no option for us.
also we tried to repair / reinstall acrobat, but it has no effect.
I suppose that maybe adobe just closed that door to open pdf documents with the octet-stream MIME-Type. Because it could an way to insert executable files in the system.
maybe a higher version than 7.1 can do this?
Thanks for your help, here in Germany it is already 2 pm so not far from quitting-time ;)

How do I get firefox to open pdf files with Adobe reader instead of google?

Firefox is unsucessfully using google to open pdf files. How do I get firefox to open pdf files with Adobe reader?
Message was edited by: veeryTalonted

"Google" is a search engine (website) and NOT (repeat: NOT) a PDF viewer. It can't and won't open PDFs in any real or imaginable way.
Firefox added their own proprietary PDF viewer with version 20 - they're on 21 now. I'll be the first to admit "it sucks". You CAN'T fill in PDF forms with it, and you can't email them from the page like with Opera, Safari or Chrome (which use the reader plug-in still).
Unfortunately, the ONLY option you have now that they've added it and killed the ability for the Reader plug-in to work with Firefox, is Tools>Options>Applications - select Portable Document Format(PDF) and choose "Use Adobe Reader (Default)". What that will do is FORCE Firefox to download the PDF instead of opening it in their terrible PDF viewer in the browser window.
Or... use one of the other browsers I mentioned. They're all free.

Can't open PDF files with IE10.

I cannot open PDF files with IE10. I had other issues, as well, with IE10 so I went back to IE9. Then it was suggested that not updating to the latest edition of IE could lead to security issues and sure enough my computer was hacked shortly thereafter. Now I am back with IE10. How do I change the registry to be able to open PDF files?

Please try turning Enhanced Protected Mode OFF in IE10 and see if it makes a difference. Navigate to Internet Options, select the Advanced Tab, scroll down to the Security section, and uncheck the box that says "Enable Enhanced Protected Mode".
