Opening pdf ..urgent

Hi,
i have a page on which i have a link 'View'.On clicking the link a pdf document opens.
In some machines on clicking the 'View' link the browser prompts for the Open/Save options in pop-up(the one that we usually get while downloading a file from the net).
But in some cases it directly opens ,it does not ask for open/save option.
This is causing a problem as this is happening only in some machines and not all.
Can anyone say me the cause as to why only in some machines it goves the open/save pop-up.

Your issue is related to browser settings. In IE, a pdf file is opened through the activex control and hence you should check the activex control settings. If its set to "Prompt", it will prompt for open/save. If its set to "Enabled", browser will automatically open any activex control.

  • Download/Open .pdf files with Windows 8.1 - Help needed urgently!

    Hi, all. I hope this is not a stupid question, but can someone please help with downloading/opening .pdf files?
    I am running Adobe Acrobat XI Pro, latest version (no updates available) on a Windows 8.1 platform. When I attempt to download a .pdf file (ANY .pdf file!), my system gives me this error message -
    "Adobe Acrobat does not support Internet Explorer's 64-bit mode. Either install the latest version of Adobe Reader, or disable 64-bit mode in Internet Explorer"
    I find this baffling. If I could find a later version of Reader than what I have, I would like to try it - but, Adobe updates tells me I have the latest version of Reader. Also, as above, I have the latest version of Acrobat - if Reader could support 64-bit, surely Acrobat XI Pro could?
    Can some kind person please help?

    Hi Peter,
    (I updated your title, so now help is indeed, "needed," and not "nedded." Been there myself plenty of times.)
    In any case, is it possible that you're running Reader X, and have the latest updates of that? If so, please consider downloading Reader XI, and make sure you're running version 11.0.07. And, this document offers instructions for setting up your browser to display PDFs when you're using Acrobat XI or Reader XI: Acrobat Help | Display PDF in browser | Acrobat, Reader XI
    Please let us know how it goes.
    Best,
    Sara

  • Unable to open PDF in Browser

    I have Adobe reader 11.0.0.3 installed, it was working fine for all my users, when suddenly they started complaining that they couldnt open pdf in Internet Explorer. I tested on a machine and it was fine, I installed the latest windows patching and then it stopped working, now I just get a little red 'X' whenever I try to view a PDF file in the browser.
    When I go to 'Manage Add-ins' in Internet explorer the publisher field in the menu windows shows 'Control nam is not Valid' for Adobe PDF.
    Please help, this is really urgent for my users.

    Active X controls go back to IE1. The error you're seeing is "Control name not valid" that means an ActiveX control is not working properly with IE... regardless of version. 
    Turning off filtering usually solves this. Repairing IE might do it too.

  • Cant open PDF's message keeps coming up to accept end user licence agreement how do I sort this out.

    Have a Mac OS X that had adobe reader installed on it but had to try and print a document but it kept telling me to download adobe reader update now I can't open PDF's  and message that comes up says I need to accept end user license agreement. Where do I do this or how do I sort this out URGENTLY PDF's needed for my business

    You don't need to delete anything, just launch it. Can you explain how you launched it, and what happened? It turns out that a lot of people misunderstand the word launch, so we need to ask.

  • I can't open pdf files

    please help me

    I, too, am having trouble opening large / oversized pdf files after a recent update to the new interfaced Acrobat Reader. This is a URGENT request to fix. I create posters and banners all the time and when I try to open pdf files that I have created, all I get is a blank white page in my file. The file size is large, but only a blank white page is showing when I open it.
    I am on a Windows 8.1 laptop. Please help!!

  • AS2, Flash 8 and opening pdf files

    Hi all,
    I am using Flash 8, Actionscript 2, to open pdf files from a
    projector.
    Everything is fine if I use 'FreeMX' and the computer has
    Acrobat 5, 6, 7 installed.
    But it fails to work if the computer has Adobe Reader 8
    installed - the pdf document does not open.
    Does anyone know of this and whether there is a workround?
    It's kinda urgent - the client is breathing down my neck here:)
    Julian

    I think I may have resolved my problem - it looks like Adobe
    Reader 8 uses different code to parse its command line than before.
    The path and file name I used in my code had '/' as the path
    separator, which worked fine with Acrobat/Reader 6 and 7. But (at
    least here) not with Adobe Reader 8 - instead I had to convert to
    '\' to make it work.

    uninstalled firefox ....deleted all files still remaining under mozilla firefox directory in program files ... to avoid having to reprogram all my settings, reisntall all addons as well .. I did not remove anything from mozilla firefox that is stored in either appdata or under the windows users directory (if any)
    ... the as suggested reinstalled the latest version of the firefox browser using the link you provided in the email ..; tested and several issues still remain present and unresolved ....
    so please this is urgent or I will have to jump browsers and start using chrome .. because we work 14 hours a day 6 (sometimes 7) days a week, to get ready for the launch of our newest venture and we cannot lose that much days on browser related issues ... so please instead of putting me through week long step process .. of do this .. do that .. can you please actually look into the issue from your end .. I use firefox for so many, many years thta I deserve this kind of support .. thnx Robert

  • This morning, Firefox stopped opening .pdf documents that I am trying to retrieve from websites. It does not download them, and the page goes blank, with nothing more happening. What do I do to fix it?

    I went to the FAA website, and I needed to review a document. I clicked on the link, the page turned blank, but I never saw the document. I tried again, but I still could not get the document. Word documents still bring up the dialog box allowing me to open the document. I went to another website to find additional information on the project I am working on, and I am experiencing the same problem, when I click on a link to a pdf, it will not open, and the download dialog box does not open.
    I have tried looking at applications and plugins, but everything seems to be fine. What do I do to fix this?
    Thanks,
    Anne

  • Can not open PDF's in Safari

    Hi All:
    I know this has been asked and answered so many time that I am sorry to post again. However, I have read many of the prior posts, tired the fixes, and still the problem persists. All of a sudden, without any erxplanation I know of, PDF links do not open within Safari, as in the past, but instead revert to the Downloads and open in Preview.
    MacBook Pro OS: 10.6.8
    Safari: 5.1.7
    I have two other accounts set up and they both open PDF links within Safari.
    I have downloaded Adobe Reader again, checked my plugins. I can’t locate any Adobe plugins on either my home account or hard drive, restarted, etc.
    If possible, can someone try and offer assistance. It's one of those things which is bugging me and have been struggling with for the past three hours.
    thank you.

    Hi Linc:
    You and Carolyn seem to tbe the go to  people for this issue.
    When I pull up the plug0ins from the Help Menu, I get an entire page. I've tried copying it below.
    What really confuses me is that it works fine in my other accounts and I can't determine what is different in this account.
    thanks,

    Hi.  I have a Dell PC running Windows 7 64 bit.  I have the latest version of Adobe Reader,  It worked yesterday.  Today I have job training to do that is due tomorrow morning and I can't open PDF files.  I have to open a guide and read it and take a test tomorrow.  I have deleted and reinstalled the application.  I have rebooted.  I have made sure my PDF's are associated with the program.  Every PDF on my computer won't open and I get the same error message.  It simply says Attempt to access invalid address.  How can I fix this?  Thanks.

    Hi Don,
    I have seen this issue fixed for some users by modifying the following registry key:
    The key is "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management" MoveImages
    Set the key to 1 instead of 0 then reboot the machine.
    In case you still face the issue try the following registry key change:
    The only thing you have to do is rename the following key at the REGEDIT, and everything will be fine !!
    BEFORE:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\iexplore.exe
    AFTER:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\iexplore.old
    Note: Please take a backup of the registry before attempting this change.
    Regards,
    Rave

    You should have Version: 10.1.0.534 for adobe acrobat but you have two older versions instead. If the one does not replace both you may have to disable the really old one, or remove through the control panel.
