What is your operating system? If you are on Windows, download, install, and run the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility from http://majorgeeks.com/Windows_Installer_CleanUp_Utility_d4459.html; select Adobe Reader, then click the Remove button.
You should be able to reinstall Adobe Reader now.

I am using a maco air with firefox. I am using Abode Acrobat Pro X. When I try to open pdf documents, i get a blank white screen. Just started happening about two weeks ago. What is the solution??

Moving this discussion to the Creative Cloud Download & Install forum.
Greg please see Creative Cloud app doesn't open and hangs on spinning progress wheel - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/creative-cloud-app-doesnt-open.html for information on how to resolve your current error.

I click on itunes but doesnt open and says send error report or dont send

You will need to provide more details as we cannot see your computer screen. Does this happen every time you launch LabVIEW? What version of LabVIEW are you using? What version of Windows? Does LabVIEW crash? If so, what were you doing at the time it crashed?

My safari is not working. Every time i click on it says to reopen or dont reopen. i press reopen i gives me this long screen and it says reopen or press okay. when i press ok it closes the box and doesnt open. when i press reopen the long screen stay

If Safari crashes on launch and you don't have another web browser, you should be able to launch Safari by starting up in safe mode.
You may have installed the "Genieo" or "InstallMac" ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it.
Back up all data before making any changes.
Besides the files listed in the linked support article, you may also need to remove this file in the same way:
~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.ltvbit.plist
If there are other items with a name that includes "Genieo" or "genieo" alongside any of those you find, remove them as well.
One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those.
After removing the malware, remember to reset your home page in all the web browsers affected, if it was changed.
If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, then you may have one of the other kinds of adware covered by the support article. Follow the rest of the instructions in the article.
Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. Chances are you got it from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
or
Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
if it's not already checked.

Removing the "Security Warning" dialogue box on default when a PDF is opened

Hey
I have created a pdf document with a specific data written using iText Libraries. I have actually created a beacon that generates a notification sent to the owner's email when the pdf is opened.
The code is under OpenAction. The problem I am facing is that as I open the document, a dialogue box is opened saying "Security Warning" The document is trying to connect to : URL. How do I get rid of this dialogue box. ? I don't want this dialogue box to appear and allow the connection by default. I have tried playing with the Trust Manager - but that doesn't seem to be the solution, as am trying to execute my PDF document at a remote machine.

There was a lot of media fuss years back when it was found out that PDF files could "phone home", i.e. do what you want to do. So Adobe put this warning in. It wouldn't be much good as a warning if the creator of a PDF could choose to turn it off!
Document creators like to track people opening documents. Privacy advocates consider this a breach of privacy. The latter group shouts louder. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoning_home

How can I get a pdf. to open in Safari, all i'm getting is a new window with a black, blank page, instead of the pdf., and I don't want to save the file to the desktop, Safari didn't use to do that, and I don't have Adobe in the internet plug in folder.

Hi
Please take a look to this thread Re: Can I refresh the browser rather than open a new tab?

I've installed the Adobe Reader Plug In. Yet every time I click to see a PDF, it opens another browser and it is blank. The Browser reads about:blank. How can I fix this so that PDF's open in the browser?

Forcing link in one web based PDF to open link to another PDF in new browser window

We have created a form using LiveCycle Designer ES2. The form is found on our website and is used by faculty to submit proposal information to our office. Depending upon the answers to questions in the form if they say yes we had a link to another form that we would like them to complete and submit with the original PDF that they are working on. The problem that we are having is that when they click on the form it opens the new PDF and all the data that they had entered in the original PDF is gone once the new form opens up. Is there a way to force the new PDF via the use of some scripting that can go along with the link, or via the use of a button that can force the new form to open in a new browser window? It is impractical for us to expect 1500 faculty members to change their browser settings to open new PDF's in a new window. We have removed the links for now and have just put in text that says if they select yes they need to go out and complete the additional form.
The form we are using can be found here: http://spo.usu.edu/files/uploads/SP-01.pdf
The first three questions on page two where we reference the other forms is where we would like to be able to add the links to the new forms and have them open in a new browser window. When the form is downloaded and opened in Adobe Acrobat/Reader the links functioned correctly, it just did not function properly when it opens in a browser.
Thank you in advance for any assistance you can offer in regards to this issue.

I used a button, removed the border/fill properties and underlined the caption to look like a URL.
The click event is...
// form1.page1.subform1.urlBtn::click - (JavaScript, client)
app.launchURL("http://spo.usu.edu/files/uploads/SP-01.pdf",true);
The PDF will open in a new window or tab, depending upon the browser configuration.

IWeb • How Do I Make Links in an Embedded PDF Document Open in New Page?

On this page http://ostyn-newman.com/Gov_Downloads.html I have a PDF document that is embedded. I tried an IFrame, but everything seemed to work better for me with the "Embed" code. I am open to changing this if it would be better. Here's my problem. I can get the PDF document to display fine, but when I click on the links in the PDF document, the destination page opens in the embedded window. I want the links to open the destination in a new window.
I created the part of the document with most of the links (Pages 8.5 - 56) in Numbers and cut and pasted the table into a Pages document to create the completed document on our site. I exported the docuemnt from Pages as a PDF file which is what you see. There is also a link to download the file on the same page which works just fine.
I have tried to insert the target="_blank" code but have not been able to get it to open the destination pages in a new window. I am inserting the code by using the Insert/Widget/HTML Snippet Feature in IWeb. Here is the code I am using.
<embed src=
"http://ostyn-newman.com/Media/GS27F0026XTextfile.pdf"
style="width:850px; height:1000px;
border-width:0px;
border-color:#FFCC66;
border-style:solid;"
scrolling="auto" >
</embed>
I am not a coder and have just used Google to find the code to cut and paste and have played around with it to get to the place I am. If anybody can tweak the code I have or offer some totally new code for me to insert that will get this to work would be greatly appreciated.
Please keep in mind that most of the people who visit and use this page are government employees and are almost exclusivey using Explorer.

Thank you Jeff,
I tried your original suggestion and now my inserted html widget reads
<embed src=
"http://ostyn-newman.com/Media/GS27F0026XTextfile.pdf"
style="width:850px; height:1000px;
border-width:0px;
border-color:#FFCC66;
border-style:solid;"
scrolling="auto" target="_blank">
</embed>
It is live on my site. You can see that the embedded document still opens the destination links in the embedded window.
As for your other two suggestions, thank you as well. I am aware of those techniques and did not use them because that is not how I want the other PDF links on the page to behave. The catalog and autocad blocks downloads in the box at the top should simply download (or behave however the client's browser is configured to handle downloaded PDF documents or zip files.) I don't intend to force those to open a new window. I could also have our client click on a link to the PDF document and open it in a new page (like in your second suggestion) but I was hoping to embed the PDF and have it automatically viewable on our Download • Terms • Prices Page with all of the PDF search functions intact as well as the links be active. My only complaint at this point is that the links in the embedded PDF document open the destination page in the embed window instead of a new window. I only want to force a new window because the destination window doesn't behave properly when it opens in my embed window and it is difficult to figure out how to go back to the my PDF document when a destination window gets opened in the embed window. The code you sent didn't do the trick. Or maybe I didn't get it exactly right. That is why I included it above. Thanks for trying though. I appreciate the effort.
I would be willing to bypass the imbed/iFrame route altogether if I could just somehow drop the Pages document into the IWeb page and retain the search and link features, but I've not been able to figure out how to do that. When I was exploring how to directly drop a Pages document into an IWeb page is when I stumbled on the method of embedding a PDF document into an IWeb page to retain the important search and link features.

Some sites needs Internet Explorer and doesnt open in Safari!!!

Hello,
There are couple of sites that doesnt open in Safari and the messege I get is : The TIBCO General Interface product requires Microsoft Internet Explorer v. 6.0 or greater.
The website is http://www.dsm.com.qa/dsmsite/ And then click on Love Quotes.
Please help me with it.
Thank you!!!

Hi,
As Tom says, the website is geared towards Windows Internet Explorer users only.
The only 2 options you have are to:
1. Send them feedback about the problem to http://www2.dsm.com.qa/dsm/DSM_ContactUs and hope they eventually increase their compatibility with other systems.
2. Run VirtualPC so that you are effectively running Windows on your Mac (or simply buy a cheap PC).
Sorry it's not better news.
