Pdf file empty in Safari

I am using Safari in Mavericks 10.9.2. When I download a PDF the file is named in a file but the folder is empty. Any solutions? 
Also when I open my bank statements in PDF I loose the adress bar.  Any ideas?  thanks   using adobe reader 11.0.06

I can't explain but it could be an issue with Adobe reader. It has a history of mucking things up with Safari.
You could try removing the adobe plugins from the Internet plug-ins folder. It is in the main Library.
Restart Safari after and see what happens.

  • Issue with opening PDF file link from Safari

    Hi Everyone,
    I got a problem with opening PDF file link from Safari 4.04. Instead of getting a normal pdf content, it shows some weird characters. Not sure it is something wrong with Adobe Reader Plugin or Safari?
    I have uploaded a screenshot of the issue in the adobe forum (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/531870). Please help!
    Many Thanks,
    John

    There's nothing wrong, except the fact that you have Adobe Reader installed. You don't need it, so get rid of it; it will only cause problems with Safari. What you're seeing is the contents of the PDF file, rather than having it displayed.
    If you want to download a PDF file, you can either Control-click on the link and choose "Download Linked File As…", or you can Option-click on the link for the file and it will be downloaded to your Download folder (usually your Desktop).
    If you want to view a PDF file in Safari, you don't need Adobe Reader; Safari is perfectly capable of doing this by itself and has been for years. Adobe Reader will only get in the way and slow everything down.

  • Bug - Safari 5.1.5 breaks the keyword search of PDF files displayed on Safari

    Bug - Safari 5.1.5 breaks the keyword search of PDF files displayed on Safari.
    After updating to Safari 5.1.5 with Adobe Acrobat Pro 10.1.3 on Mac OS X 10.6.8, it is not possible to search for keywords in PDF documents displayed on Safari.
    I understand that it is a bug. Is there any way to fix it?
    Thanks.

    Hi...
    Try deleting a plugin...
    Open the Finder. From the menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Typs this:    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    Move the Adobe PDF Browser plugin  (or PDF Browser plugin) to the Trash.
    Quit then relaunch Safari to test.
    If that doesn't help, back to the Finder menu.
    Go > Go to Folder
    Type this:  ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safarfi/Cache.db
    Move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Quit then relaunch Safari to test.

  • Why won't pdf files print from Safari?

    why won't pdf files print from Safari? I get blank pages. They print fine from Firefox. OS X 10.8.4

    Back up all data.
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, there should be a setting in its preferences 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. Otherwise do as follows.
    Triple-click the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (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 (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others.
    If you still have the issue, repeat 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 again.

  • Can no longer download pdf file since last safari update

    Since the last OS update (I am running Safari 6.1; OX 10.8.5) pdf files via Safari fail to open. Yet they do open in Firefox, which is 'not' my default browser. Anyone else having issues?

    Try this ...
    Open a Finder window then from the menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    Click Go.
    If you see the:  AdobePDFViewer plugin (or anything Adobe related) in the Internet Plug-Ins folder, move it to the trash.
    Restart your Mac and try opening a PDF file.

  • PDF files viewed in Safari or downloaded through Safari: Text appears as black and gray boxes

    Hi, a client of ours is having issues viewing PDFs on her home computer. When she views them in browser OR if she saves them through the browser and opens them, she gets the same result. All text (it is an uncommon font being used) shows up as boxes:
    The error is occuring on OSX 10.6.8 using Safari 5.1.10
    The PDF file is being saved out through Word
    Client does not have Adobe Acrobat Pro
    Is there anything that can be done to get this to display properly on Snow Leopard / in Safari?
    Please let me know if you need additional details about the situation, and I'll get them from the client.

    Remove any AdobePDFViewer plugins from /Library/Internet Plug-Ins, restart, and the problem should be gone.

  • Print web page to PDF file with live links in PDF file like Apple Safari's pdf prints?

    With Firefox for Macintosh, can I print a web page to PDF in such a manner that when I option the PDF file and click on a link, it is a live link that opens in my system's default web browser?
    With Apple Safari, when I print a web page to a PDF file, the links on that page are "live" and work to open the web browser to their destination. The PDF files I get from Firefox are dead. Clicking on link does not open in browser.
    Is there a way to get FireFox to act more like Safari in this regard?
    Thanks

    Seems the referenced thread is about Lion. I am having this problem in Snow Leopard 10.6.5 with Firefox. Any way to get PDFs with working links in Snow Leopard using FIrefox? I do not really want to have to use Safari for this purpose.
    Going forward when and under what circumstances will future versions of Firefox be able to create PDFs with live links? Are there any circumstances where a current or past version of Firefox can do it under any current or past version of OS X?
    Thanks.

  • Iframe is not working for pdf files in iPad safari

    Hi,
    Pdf file is not displaying properly in iPad safari. I have faced below issue while using iframe
    Not displaying in full width and height
    Not able scroll other pages in pdf
    Thanks,
    Arun

    Hi Viraj,
    You need to upload an image "pdf.gif" in \etc\public\mimes\images folder.
    Also, you need to define the MIME Type for PDF documents in portal.
    Navigate to System Administration -> System Configuration -> Knowledge Management -> Content Management -> Utilities -> MIME Types.
    Check whether you already have a MIME Type for PDF or not. Else you can create a new Type "pdf" with MIME Type "application/pdf".
    Regards,

  • Cannot open  pdf files saved from Safari

    I can read large pdf files from websites opened in Safari but when I save them and later try to open them with Adobe reader I get the following error message
    Adobe Reader could not open 'ACOS-2013-final.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).
    This appears to only have happened when I installed the latest security update for the iMac

    Possibly http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/pdf-error-1015-11001-update.html

  • Why can I not open PDF files or upgrade Safari

    Upgraded to snow leopard, no PDF files will open. Tried upgrading Safari from 5.0.5 but message said this computer requires 10.5. what can I do ?

    Safari 5.1.10 for Snow Leopard :
    System Requirements
    Mac OS X v10.6.8 Snow Leopard
    If you have 10.6.3, you need to update to 10.6.8 before attempting to install Safari 5.1.10.  Use Software Update from your Apple menu, which should take care of Safari, OS X 10.6.8  & any required security updates too. Backup first, in case of problems - although your files & applications shouldn't be affected.

  • Searching PDF files viewed thru Safari

    I know I can view PDF files in Safari on my 3GS but is there a way to search them without having to download them onto the phone?
    Thanks,
    Scott

    No, as all you have is a viewer of PDF's not something that can interpret content, and create a searchable index.
    And you cannot save to your iPhone in ay case - it cannot store files other than those attached to emails, or those in the Photo library.

  • Opening of PDF files on my Safari web browser is not supported.

    Whenever i click on a PDF link, i get a page with random characters.
    This happens with all links to PDF files. The problem has occurred since I upgraded my OS to Mavericks.
    Reseting Safari and restarting the mac doesnt solve the problem.
    Any sugestions for solutions is highly appreciated.

    Please enable guest logins and log in as Guest. Launch Safari and test. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and disable it if you wish.

  • When a pdf file opens in Safari, then I can no longer select a window

    When I go under the Window menu and select one, nothing happens. If I close Safari and re-open this seems to fix the problem temporarily until the next time I open a pdf window.

    It took me a while to learn the potential of tabs, but I quickly found them addictive, although there are times when two windows are still better in my opinion, such as comparing a table, say, and an update to that table.
    I have been using PDF Browser Plugin Since Safari 1.x. It works with all browsers and not just Safari. I have not seen a PDF in Safari without the plugin, so I cannot say how it is different. I can say that it has its own toolbar which will allow you to open the complete document that contains the page you are viewing, save or print the pdf, lets you adjust the document on the screen and to zoom in or out, and it will also rotate the document if needed (or even if not if you click on the button).

  • Some PDF files garbled in Safari and PDF HD

    I have a 3 page sample of a book on my website (generated from InDesign) that reads fine on the Mac Safari and other programs on the Mac.
    However, the PDF will only show garbled, overlying text when viewed on the iPad Safari and PDF HD. It is not file size related as I have an 8-page newsletter nearly four times the size of file and also created in InDesign --> PDF that views just fine.
    I have exported the PDF and also print to PDF as a new file and it still comes out a mess.
    The graphics and music illustrations are ok, some lines of text, and titles. The fonts used are Times TT and Helvetica. There is also a IPA linguistic font used. Basically all other text in the three pages is just garbage.
    Anyone else see this happening and how can I fix the situation so clients can see the sample on iPad? Can the imbedded EPS files in the document be what is fouling things up? The illustrations are essential for the sample from the book.

    I have this same problem in all PDF readers and Safari.
    The problem exacerbates itself when a PDF document gets zoomed in or out.
    I have some large, multi-page PDFs that are fine and some that aren't.
    I even have one or two page PDFs that exhibit the same issues.
    I can't see any pattern to whether a PDF will view correctly or not.
    I have reported this via Apple iPad feedback.
    You may want to do the same to let Apple know tis is an issue on some iPads or iOS software.
    Here's the feedback link

  • Why won't pdf files display in safari?

    I just upgraded to Lion I am trying to view douments on a website I had no issue with on Leopard.  But now it is saying that the plug in is missing.  I checked other options I removed the adobe plug-in and nothing.  Then when i download the coument Preview isn't displaying it property.  It's illegible had a bunch of dots and lines through the text. 

    From the Safari menu bar, select Help > "Installed Plug-ins." Is the Adobe PDF plugin installed? If so, remove it from /Library/Internet Plug-Ins, relaunch Safari, and try again. That's the Library folder at the top level of your startup volume, not the (invisible) one in your home folder.
