Pdf/adobe acrobat web links yield black screen

When I click on some web links I receive only a black screen ...
Examples are:
http://www.montereylawngarden.com/pdf/remuda_supl_0404_03.pdf
http://www.clcaslo.org/j_ip/downloads/sloxpress0412onlineV2.pdf
I keep all software updated as prompted, including Adobe, Mac and Word ... etc.
I run disk utilities Repair Disk Permissions each time I update or add software, and then Log Out, Shut Down or Restart ...
Is there some setting on my Mac I must adjust ?
Thanks Dale38

Back up all data.
In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
If you still have the issue, repeat the above steps using this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • Printing Problems with PDF - Adobe Acrobat

    Issue: Printing problems with PDF (Adobe Acrobat Reader)
    Dear All,
    Please help!
    My printer was working absolutely perfectly until my brother in law recently needed to borrow my printer. He plugged in his laptop running Windows 8 (awful thing that is). Since he did this to print his own PDF, I cannot print mine.
    Although all the text will appear on the page perfectly both in the document view and on actual printing, it appears that some of the transparent formatting stuff on a PDF - such as boxes you have to fill in and transparent areas (such as you find on glorious tax forms) are omitted completely. In fact, in their place I was getting a single black dot. Now, after uninstalling and re-installing updates for the printer, windows 7, adobe acrobat reader, etc.etc. I get squat. Just all the text laid out but none of the shading or boxes.
    I have tried fiddling with the printer settings; the  print as 'photo' option, dpi settings, greyscale - as much as I can think of and I am thoroughly stumped.
    In a desperate attempt, I even installed the Universal Printer Drivers - thinking it might have been that. No. All I got was a page of gobbledygook. Consequently, I uninstalled and reinstalled the normal drivers again.
    If there are any wonderful people out there with any fabulous ideas about how I can get my shading and boxes back; I'd  very much appreciate it. Sadly I have a tax return to fill out (which is already fabulously late) and need my printer to work!
    Much appreciation in advance x

    Hey there @Reverie!
    Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!
    I can see that the printer is no longer printing in the correct format after it was plugged into the Windows 8 computer!  You mentioned you have run the updates and uninstalled/re-installed the printer software.  Have you uninstalled and re-installed the Adobe software? Are you getting the same issue from other programs as well? Are you getting the same issues if you are logged in as a different user on the computer? 
    I have located the HP Update Software Utility that may be able to help.  You can download an run the utility.  It may be able to locate any other updates for the printer.
    I would also recommend running a disk cleanup on the computer to clear any temporary files and junk files that may be causing some performance or software issues. If you do not know how to run a disk cleanup on the computer please follow this document regarding Delete files using Disk Cleanup.  It is recommended to restart the computer after a disk cleanup. After the restart try the print job again!
    Let me know if that helped and thanks again for posting on the HP Forums!

  • Printing PDF Adobe Acrobat Documents

    I receive emails from my job and the attachments are PDF Adobe Acrobat Documents and I get an error message when I try to print them.  The error message is:  PROP Res DLL Not Loaded.  I have talked to a computer tech to see why I could not print those attachments and they said that I needed to download the Adobe Flash Player.  I have done that just recently and I was given the notification that it did download.  I went to try to print those documents and I get the same error message: Prop Res DLL Not Loaded.  What do I have to do to be able to print those documents?

    This is usually associated with LexMark printers installed under Windows.  A possible fix is given at

  • HAVE NEW 13.3 MAC AIR AND when using it to open sites in safari I have no issue until I go to a link page that is a pdf file or I am trying to save the screen info as a pdf. I only get a black screen with no data, cannot find solution in help menu

    HAVE NEW 13.3 MAC AIR (previously, still have 13.3 MCbook pro which works captures what I am looking for an answer to)
    when i open sites in safari the page opens fine if it is not a pdf based page.
    Once i open a site that has a link to another page that is a pdf based page the page comes up as a black screen with no info showing
    If I open a site that gices me an open to save a file to a word, excel type document or a pdf , everything works fine until I try to save the information to a PDF and again the screen goes black
    I have tried the safari help site but to no avail, does anyone have a solution to thid problem. (I do have the abode ofr mac program loaded)

    If you delete all the Adobe Reader stuff it will probably fix this. For almost everything, the Apple pdf handling works better.

  • Thin Black Border on Video in Interactive PDF (Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional)

    Hi
    I am having issues with embedded video in an interactive pdf (currently using Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional).
    I have placed my media mp4 file in the pdf. I would like the video to have no border, so I proceeded to Multimedia Properties to edit the Appearance and set the Border Type to Invisible Rectangle. I also editted the Playback settings for the Rendition to keep the player open "Forever once activated." But every time I view pages in my interactive pdf with video there is still a thin black border surrounding the videos on initial play. If I have already viewed the video and come back to the page, the border dissapears.
    Is there a way to ensure the thin black border/outline never appears in the pdf, even when first opening and viewing the file? Does this have to do with the Acrobat 8 in particular? Please let me know if you are also encountering this problem or have a solution.

    Thank you so much for your help.
    I am now working in Adobe Acrobat X Pro and have embedded the same video. The borders have disappeared.
    I have set the video activation settings to enable when "The page containing the content is opened". When the page is opened, I am now seeing a grey box (the size of the video) flash before the video is played. Do you know of a way to not have the grey box appear before the video plays? Or is there even a way to edit the color of this box so it is a less noticeable transition in my documet? I assume this is some sort of default setting to be displayed when the video loads. Any suggestions regarding this issue would be greatly appreciated.

  • Saving as a PDF with Active Web Links

    I need to save Word documents that have active web links in them to PDF files. When I save them to PDF, the links are no longer active. How can I save them with the web links in tact?

    You need Adobe Acrobat to do this (the Professional version, not the free Acrobat Reader or the OS X Print to pdf function. The software is rather expensive, though. There are less expensive versions (Acrobat Elements) but these only run under Windows.
    You can also use Adobe's online pdf creation service, which may be a better (i.e. cheaper) option.
    Hope this solves your problem...

  • Slideshow in Lightroom 5.5 Mac Yields Black Screen

    I just discovered that the slideshow functionality in Lightroom 5.5 on my Mac yields only a black screen.
    This is the case for both impromptu slideshows (CMD-Return) and the Slideshow module.
    From a Google search and looking over topics in this forum, I've found other posts describing this identical problem for both Mac and Windows versions of Lightroom going back to the original introduction of Lightroom 5 over a year ago.
    I've been using Lightroom on various Mac computers since the first Lightroom beta release over 10 years ago. I generally don't use the slideshow functionality of the program, so I was quite surprised to discover yesterday that it's not working in Lightroom 5.5. I originally tried to preview/play a slideshow with 100 photos--some Olympus Raw files and some Canon JPEG files. I have since replicated this problem with a test collection of 5 JPEG images.
    I know that the slideshow functionality used to work back in Lightroom 3 and 4. I hadn't tried to use it in Lightroom 5.x until now, so I don't know when it became broken, but it's definitely broken now...and from reading various posts here on Adobe forums and in related non-Adobe forums, it appears that Adobe has yet to acknowledge that this problem exists...which I find surprising and disappointing.
    The only work around seems to be to export a PDF slideshow from the Lightroom 5.5 Slideshow module, which does produce a full-screen slideshow PDF. But, the slideshow functionality should work directly in Lightroom, as well.
    DETAILS:
    Hardware: Mac Book Pro Retina -- fully loaded (2.6 GHz Intel Core I7, 16 GB RAM, Nvidia GeForce GT 750M 2048 MB graphics card, External Apple 27" Cinema Monitor connected via Thunderbolt)
    OS: Mac OS X 10.9.4 Mavericks
    LR Version: Lightroom Mac 5.5
    Problem 1: Impromptu Slideshow (pressing CMD-Enter/Return keys from Library/Develop modules) causes:
    1. spinning beachball for seconds to minutes depending on how many images are in current folder/collection
    2. followed by "Preparing Preview progress bar
    3. followed by entirely black screen. Pressing forwards/backwards arrows do nothing; pressing ESC or mouse click returns to Lightroom module
    Problem 2: Slideshow Module - Clicking Preview button (or Preview triangle under slideshow window) causes:
    1. Preparing Preview progress bar
    2. followed by slideshow window turning completely black.
    Pressing forwards/backwards arrows does nothing; pressing ESC or clicking mouse returns slideshow window to display of slideshow layout
    Clicking the Play Slideshow button exhibits exactly the same behavior as above, except that my entire screen blacks out instead of just Lightroom's slideshow window.

    I’m disappointed

    Robert Kahn   less than a minute ago
    Update:
    Just upgraded from Lightroom Mac 5.5 to 5.6.
    Per my post above, creating an impromptu slideshow (CMD-Return) or using the Slideshow module produces either a completely black preview or a completely black full-screen slideshow.
    While Adobe addressed other issues and bugs in Lightroom 5.x, they apparently did not address the slideshow functionality in this release, alas....

  • Adobe acrobat anchor link not going to the right page.

    I have anchor link from html page like http://www,pbgc.gov/docs/2006bluebook.pdf#page=15, when you try to click the link on my machine and some other employees it goes to first page rather than going to page 15. Other employees get page 15. Have anyone experience this issue or know why this issue happen in Adobe Acrobat.
    Most our employees have Adobe Acrobat 8, Also there are some who have Adobe Acrobat 9. I was thinking it may due to the version but someone with Adobe 8 is also having the issue.
    Please advise. Thanks!

    Is Adobe Reader being opened as a plugin in your browser, or as an external application? I think the links to specific locations in the document only work if Adobe Reader is used as a plugin. I've had the same problem, and it was because I didn't have Reader as a browser plugin.

  • Gaps In between Letters Of Full Words When Merging Files To Single .pdf Adobe Acrobat 9.3.4 Pro

    Setup
    Windows XP SP3 + Office 2007 Pro
    Also, tested on  Windows 7 64x + Office 2007 Pro
    Same Issues.
    The steps used are:
    1) Open Adobe Acrobat 9.0
    2) Click File
    3) Combine
    4) Merge Files into a single PDF
    5) Add Files (select the required files)
    6) Combine Files (which then processes and creates single PDF)
    Results:
    A single PDF is then created and as mentioned is occasionally affected by this issue of random gaps appearing within words.
    Expected results:
    A single PDF with the same formatting and layout as the original files.
    I can not post screenshots of this issue for sercurity concerns but here is an example.
    From my word document / or pdf (either way)
    Drawing Contents
    Fabrication Notes
    Bill of Materials

    Note: Tested this issue with Acrobat 8, and did not have this issue.
    Please Help

    Thanks for the response.
    I have checked though the Word documents that were used in the most recent merge. They don't have any spaces at these areas or strange formatting. I turned on the Show/Hide option to confirm if there was anything odd but I could not see anything. The formatting (Ctrl+D) shows the default font Arial, Regular, font 12.
    The interesting thing is that if it occurs and attempt another file merge the gaps are no longer there. Which makes me think this is unlikely to be the documents and formatting being used and more likely to be a bug in Adobe Acrobat.
    Is there anything else that might be of use to know?

  • Gaps inbetween letters of full words when Merging files to single PDF (Adobe Acrobat 9.0 Standard)

    I've raised a Bug Report although it says that I may not be contacted so thought someone else might have encountered this issue and hopefully knows what causes it and how to fix. Any advise would be greatly appreciated. Heres a copy of the Bug Report details...
    ******BUG******
    Concise problem statement:
    An intermitent issue is occuring when merging multiple files into a single PDF in Adobe Acrobat 9.0 Standard, the resulting PDF file has gaps inbetween the letters of actual words. For example the word "document" may appear in part of the PDF as "doc ument". This seems to affect various parts of the final PDF file.
    Setup: Windows XP SP2, Adobe Acrobat 9.0, Microsoft Office Standard Edition 2003
    Steps to reproduce bug:
    I am currently unable to replicate the issue on demand but this has happened three times since installing Adobe Acrobat 9.0 a month ago. The most recent occurance happened when merging 6 Microsoft Word Documents. It is a real problem due to the fact that every PDF created needs to be carefully checked and in some cases these PDFs have hundreds of pages.
    The steps used are:
    1) Open Adobe Acrobat 9.0
    2) Click File
    3) Combine
    4) Merge Files into a single PDF
    5) Add Files (select the required files)
    6) Combine Files (which then processes and creates single PDF)
    Results:
    A single PDF is then created and as mentioned is occasionally affected by this issue of random gaps appearing within words.
    Expected results:
    A single PDF with the same formatting and layout as the original files.

  • Adobe AIR apps open to black screen in iOS 8

    Adobe AIR for iOS apps I published using Flash Professional CS6 no longer run properly on iOS 8. They worked fine in iOS 7.
    After opening, they just hang at a black screen (likely the launch screen - I didn't make an image for it).
    Is this a known issue? Are there any solutions?

    I've found an answer- the apps were published using the AIR 3.4 SDK, which I guess iOS 8 doesn't support.
    Republished one with the newest AIR 15 SDK and it works properly.
    Guess I'll have to republish everything.

    Hi,
    did you search the Mozilla forum for this issue? I don't think that the JDeveloper 11 forum is the right place to post this problem if it is an Adobe/Mozilla issue

  • Opening files automatically in VBA and saving to PDF, Adobe Acrobat XI Pro

    Hello,
    I have Adobe Acrobat XI Pro and I want to ask if there is any possibility to open automatically files in Adobe by VBA (Word files, Excel, etc.) and save them to PDF?  Or maybe it is a possibility to print them with Adobe PDF Printer?  If there is something like that can you give me a sample of code?
    Thank for your help.
    Best regards,
    Robert

    Thank you for your advices.
    I already download Acrobat SDK before, but it's really complicated for someone who know only VBA at intermediate level.
    I really plan to learn javascripts and COM in future, but I was thinking that if I ask you for I guess easy think (opening files and saving them to pdf) you will help by giving similar code or some clues.
    Anyway I found  this two methods in documentation: PDDoc.Save and PDDoc.Open and I believe that a combination of them can finally help me. Do you know how I can connect them to one part?
