Pdf control in Safari 3.0.4
Hi, guys
I am using Leopard 10.5.2 and Safari 3.0.4.
For some reason, the pdf control in Safari specifically download button is not working.
I haven't installed acrobat reader. Everytime i need to dowload pdf files, i should open them in preview and use save as...
any help?
thanks in advance.
Normally whenever you enter a username and password into a site on Safari it automatically prompts to save the login details. If you need to set Safari up to save username and password info go to Safari-Preferences-Autofill-And then select the 'Usernames and passwords' checkbox.
If you want to see what passwords have already been saved by Safari then go to Safari-Preferences-Autofill and then select the 'Edit...' box.
Ahh! Just realised that you're using an earlier version of Safari. Hope there isn't too much difference between my version and yours!

Safari automatically puts pdfs onto a Safari page. I can't adjust the size of the page or print. Help says that I can access a toolbar for that by put the curser at the bottom of the page, but that doesn't work. What can I do?
Try right or control clicking the window then click Open with...

Can no longer view pdf files in Safari
Adobe viewer installed. Was working okay. Upon first "download" of pdf file, had pop-up window to locate Adobe Reader application. Then pdf files were opened in Safari with Adobe Reader controls across the top of the Safari window.
For no apparent reason, can no longer view pdf in Safari. The URL for the pdf file appears in the Safari URL, but the Safari window is blank. No pop-up window to locate Adobe Reader application during first "download" of pdf file. Safari Help --> Installed Plug-ins shows Adobe Reader for pdf. Can download pdf file by highlighting URL and then pressing Option-Return.
Only change the previous day was update of Mac software which included a security upgrade and other software upgrades.Hi..
Go to /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Move the AdobePDF browser plugin to the Trash.
Try Safari.
If you have problems locating the plugin...
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type this exactly as you see it here:

How to Zoom in and Out on PDF files in Safari?
Safari help is not helpful since it gives inaccurate information on how to Zoom in and Out on a PDF file that has opened in Safari. The help says to control click the page and choose the zooming level you desire. However control clicking the PDF file in Safari brings up a save page box. I tried some of the other keys with clicking and they did not work. Thanks in advance to those who helped me save a PDF file to the desktop so I can view in Preview.- But often I just need to be able to zoom in to read the tiny text that is displayed.
Thanks for getting back to me-
the website I am trying to zoom into a PDF on is:
http://www.beedocuments.com/software/Timeline/screenshots.html
I click on one of the screenshots- it loads into a safari window.
When I control key click on the image- a pop up menu comes up asking me to save the image to deskotp- add it my image library and 2 other save options. No zoom in or Zoom out. I only have an apple pro mouse and my track pad- so right clicking isn't an option. -

Postscript to PDF converter in Safari and other applications
I frequently work under Linux so I have and receive many files in ps-format. Until recently I encountered no problems since Tiger converts automatically to PDF, whether in Safari, the Mail Tool or the PDF-reader. From one day to the other this doesn't work anymore, probably after a recnt update of something, I'm not quite sure what. Any software that attemps to open a ps-file gets stuck and eventually crashes. It still works with X11 and ghostview and my ps2pdf converter also works in my Xterm ...
Could it be a problem with the Quartz composer or some software that controls the graphic output? Anybody a clue? Thanks a lot in advance for helping!

How do I open a PDF File inside Safari? All I get is a dark grey screen. I know adobe doesn't support the 64bit version of Safari. Is there another option?
Thanks!Same problem here.
From that link above I get:
+(A) View a PDF File With Safari+
+1 Go to a Web page that displays a PDF link.+
+2 Click on the link. Safari will open up the PDF file into your Safari window.+
+3 View the contents of the PDF file by scrolling down the page.+
+(B) Download a PDF File+
+1 Open up Safari and go to a Web page that offers a link to a PDF file.+
+2 Hold down the 'Control' button and click on the PDF link in the Web page (or right-click if you have the right kind of mouse).+
+3 Choose the option 'Download Linked File' from the pull down menu that appears. This will download the file directly to your desktop.+
+(C) Open a PDF File in Preview+
+1 Open up a PDF file in your browser window.+
+2 Hold down the 'Control' button and click anywhere on the PDF document in the Safari window.+
+3 Choose the option 'Open File with Preview.app' from the pull down menu.+
A - doesn't work. I get a grey screen. Sometimes it asks which prog I want to use and then have to navigate to Reader. But, unlike Windows, it never remembers that choice!
B - it often doesn't download a thing. And the rest of that workaround is a ridiculous thing to have to do every time you want to view a .pdf file!
C - oh please... -

Reinstate Preview as PDF viewer for Safari
I am trying to get Preview to work as the default PDF viewer in Safari. I have deleted the Adobe Reader and Silverlight plug-ins from Library/Internet Plug-ins. I selected Preview as the default app for PDFs (all instances) in the info pane of a PDF. I restarted Safari and rebooted the Mac. Now it seems that Safari has no ability to view a PDF inline; it immediately downloads any PDF I click on and opens it with Preview.
I looked for a way to reinstall Safari, although I'm not sure that is a solution, but did not find a Safari download on the Apple website. Do I need a plug-in or should the functionality be built into the browser?
How do I get a PDF file to display as a web page in Safari using Preview?
Thanks -
**OS X 10.10 Yosemite on a Macbook Pro Retina 13"HI,
Right or control click a PDF file on your hard drive. Then click: Get Info
In the Get Info window click the pop up menu where you see: Open with.
Select Preview. If Preview isn't available from the list click: Other
Navigate to the Preview app and select it then click the Change All button.

How to view PDF files in Safari 5.1?
Every time I try to view a PDF file in Safari 5.1.1 (double clicking or using the contextual menu)i, it downloads the file instead. Is there a fix for this?
Adobe tells me that their plugin will not work with Safari 5.1 (with Lion or Snow Leopard) and suggests that I revert to Safari 5.0/Leopard.
A.Go to /Library/Internet Plug-Ins.
Move the PDF Browser Plug-In to the Trash.
Restart your Mac. Try viewing a PDF in Safari.
Known Issues | Adobe products on Mac OS 10.7 Lion -
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,
val

I am trying to open PDF files from safari, but when I click on them they open in a separate window and the information is encrypted. Any ideas on how to get them to open them in Adobe? Any help please!
The pdf is loading as html code. If you save it, it will download as :
605124.pdf.html
Change the extension to .pdf
And it opens and works perfectly, I just tested it:

Dear everyone
I need to configure Acrobat to display PDF files in Safari, but I have a lot of troubles to do it.
I read a european commission document explaining that
http://ec.europa.eu/research/participants/data/support/sep_usermanual.pdf
If Safari does not display pdf forms in the browser window, uninstall all older versions of Adobe Reader and download the most recent one. First close Safari and then install Reader. Launch Safari and you ought to be able to open the pdf files inside the Safari window. If you install Adobe Reader 10.1.x without first closing Safari, Safari will not display the pdf file inside its browser window until it is re-launched. For further help, please see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/troubleshoot-safari-plug-acrobat-x.html
I have OX S yosemite, I unistalled adobe acrobat, I closed safary and I installed the new version of adobe acrobat
but when I open a web page that I need to allow me to display and modify PDF files it is not working.
I checked the following web page
Troubleshoot Safari plug-in | Acrobat X, Reader X
that is recommending the following:
The AdobePDFViewer plug-in is used to display PDF files in Safari using Acrobat and Reader.
This plug-in is installed as part of the Acrobat X or Reader X installation. The location of this plug-in is:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins/AdobePDFViewer.plugin
but after the new installation with this folder is completely empty and I am still
unable to open these pdf.
Does anybody knows anything else I can do?
Best regards

How to stop Acrobat trying to open PDFs in a Safari window?
I have CS3 and when I try to look at a page with a PDF in Safari, it want to start to load I assume a acrobat reader in the safari window.
Before I had CS3 it of course it just used preview in the Safari window.
I have tried to search for a PDF plug in Safari, and I cant find one on the drive. But if you check plugins in Safari from the help menu it does say using Acrobat.
What do I need to remove to stop it?Hi
If it's greyed out, either the plug-in is missing, the preference file is possibly corrupt, or this is another example of how Adobe expresses its version of "creativity" on the Mac platform.
Tongue-in-cheek aside, I don't have CS3, so I can only speculate here. Other than the possible missing plug-in, or preference file corruption, I wonder if installing Adobe Reader frees up the greyed area via Reader's preference file? -
Why Acrobat Reader doesn't open pdf-files from Safari?
I'm new Mac user and cannot find answer why I cannot open pdf-files directly from Safari. My Macbook OS X 10.9.3 and Safari is 7.0.4. Only way to open pdf-files is to download the content first and then open it. If I try to open it directly Acrobat says "Before proceeding you must first launch Adobe Acrobat and accept the end user license agreement". I have downloaded Acrobat Reader several times already and cannot understand what I'm doing wrong.
Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
Step 1
If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print or save PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to do so by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar should appear under the cursor. Click the printer or disk icon.
Step 2
There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
Step 3
If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
and check the box marked
Allow Plug-ins
Then click
Manage Website Settings...
and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
Step 4
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
Step 5
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others—I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
Step 6
Do as in Step 4 with 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.
