Chrome on Mac, Reader X, PDFs not opening in browser

I've found lots of comments on problems with Adobe's Reader in various browsers in Windows. However, I am thinking of transitioning to Chrome on my Mac, but I can't get Chrome to display PDFs in the browser using Adobe's plugin. In fact, the plugin does not appear at all in the about:plugin list in Chrome. I'm searching Chrome forums as well, but thought I'd ask here if anyone had heard of such a thing, and if they had workarounds.
Thanks,
Mark

Currently Chrome is not supported in Adobe PDF Plug-In for browsers in Mac. You can view pdfs in Browser window for Safari Browser only in Mac. If you open pdf file in Chrome browser, it will download the file for you to open this through Adobe Reader.
Thanks,

Specific PDF not opening in Adobe Reader on Lumia ...

I get an error message on a Lumia 625 when trying to open a downloaded pdf (88Mb) in Adobe Reader Vers 10.4.3.
I have more than 3Gb free space. The file seems to be successfully downloaded & joins the list of all PDF documents in the Adobe Reader app. All other PDFs DO open OK. Just not this one.
The message reads “The document path is not valid” & phone screen shows “Loading...” but fails to actually open anything
What does this mean & how do I fix it? Thankyou in advance...

Thankyou. The Central Question over this Lumia 625 inability to open a specific pdf (by Lonely Planet) remains:-I could uninstall this Adobe Reader app but think this is not the problem as this app does indeed open all other pdf's on my phone successfully, e.g. the Lonely Planet Invoice!
On the other hand, this particular downloaded & installed pdf can be read on my home PC, my Macbook & my IpodTouch so I can't attribute fault to the filename.
The basic Troubleshoot step of a "soft reset" is NOT described in the Lumia 625 User Guide & I'm pessimistic this arbitrary step will bear fruit. I have come to the conclusion that no matter what I do, this Lumia model using the MIcrosoft OS has a system flaw that is unable to read the file (a file that other devices & another OS can read) & I will not waste time with ad hoc actions such as resets as this is not a hobby for me.
The pdf in question (88Mb, Lumia free space is >3Gb) is a travel guide I'd like to use on my next trip & this Lumia 625 is proving not worthy of coming with me. I am disappointed at the lack of "Customer Support" shown by the Nokia Company & I hope this is relayed as some "friendly feedback". Thank you for your own assistance, though.
I invite correction if this assessment is mistaken.

Captivate 5.5 PDF not opening in Acrobat Reader 9.4.5 - why?

Why won't a PDF created in Adobe Captivate 5.5 open in Acrobat Reader 9.4.5? I keep getting an error at work. I am not able to upgrade my adobe reader at work and am wondering if I NEED Acrobat Reader 10 in order to view these PDFs.

Pdf not opening in browser

Just starting yesterday I am unable to open a PDF file with my browser (Chrome) .
It wants me to download the file. Until yesterday I was able to open any file and just view it with the browser with out downloading it as a file.
What do I need to do to be able to go back to viewing a PDF file with out downloading it?

Hi toddp96226656,
It seems that the PDF Viewer plugin has been disabled on Google Chrome.
Please type " chrome://plugins/ " in the URL of your Google Chrome Browser. You will see a list of plugins there on the page.
Enable the Chrome PDF Viewer plugin.
Restart Google Chrome again & it will be working.
Let me know if you still experience any issue. We will be happy to help you.

Aadesh

PDF not opening in browser Mac

Until FF 36 I had a plugin to open pdf in browser. But I notice the PC version didn't need it. Now the plug in no longer works on the Mac and neither do any others. Every single PDF downloads.
It appears the Mac users have been left out of whatever changed, because its not an issue on the PC I use at work.
How do I get this feature back? I really need it. I'm sure I'm not the only one.

The Adobe Reader plugin may not work properly on Mac and the recommendation in the past was to disable the Adobe Reader plugin in Firefox (Tools > Add-ons > Plugins) and use the external Adobe Reader application or Preview application.
Note that there are other things that may need attention.
Your System Details list shows that you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize prefs each time Firefox starts.
The user.js file is only present if you or other software has created this file and normally it wouldn't be there.
You can check its content with a plain text editor (right-click: "Open with"; do not double-click).
The user.js file is read each time Firefox is started and initializes preferences to the value specified in this file, so preferences set via user.js can only be changed temporarily for the current session.
You can delete the user.js file if you didn't create this file yourself.

You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:

PDF not opening in Adobe Reader using openWithDefaultApplication

Hello all,
I'm having a huge problem.
I've developed an application that opens pdf files from the desktop using openWithDefaultApplication().
It works great on my development PC which has Acrobat Pro.
The files open in Acrobat Pro flawlessly.
It DOES NOT work on other PCs that only have Adobe Reader.
Someone please help!!
Does anyone know why my application won't open pdf files using Adobe Reader?
All tested PCs are running Windows 7 and Air 4.0.
I've tried with both Adobe Reader X and XI.
Thank you in advance,
Mr12.

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?

PDF File not opening in browser for sharepoint 2010

Recently we have moved our web application from one server to another in Sharepoint 2010. Back up of entire web application was taken and restored in another server. But in the new server , the PDF files in the document library is not getting opened in browser.
it always open in browser
I have already made following changes but didn,t work
Set browser file handling to Permissive from central admin
Set "open in browser" in setting s of doc library
Set the doc library file handling property using $docLib = $web.lists["Your Document Library Title"] $docLib.BrowserFileHandling = "Permissive" $docLib.Update()
Added "AllowedInlineDownloadedMimeType.Add("Application/Pdf") in web app
Installed Adober eader in client machine
Even after trying all these, the PDF files are still opening in Client application(Adobe reader) but not in the browser
It would have been great help if anybody provide a solution for this. I have been banging head on this for two days

It would be handy if you didn't double post too.

To answer your question, you've tried most things that I normally see working, but there may be an extra solution here for you. The solution 2 Powershell that deals with updating the Inline MimeType may help.

Blank error message with ? appears and PDF does not open in Browser (IE11) when clicking link to open pdf. PC - IE11 Acrobat 9.0

Blank error message with ? appears and PDF does not open in Browser (IE11) when clicking link to open pdf. PC - IE11 Acrobat 9.0
Cannot access in browser PDF files unless blank box is closed and then website address is clicked on again in browser address bar and page reloaded.
Uninstalled Acrobat 9, reinstalled, still same problem.
Help please!

Yes I can it only happens in the browser..
I reinstalled Windows on my machine and started over a couple of weeks ago.
When my desktop started up I didn’t have Acrobat installed and clicked on a pdf file and the open with xxx dialogue box came open.
I chose a different program as Acrobat wasn’t installed yet so it associated pdf files with another program.
Later Installed Acrobat and couldn’t associate the pdf file with acrobat so I went into Folder Options and manually associated PDF files with Acrobat.
Ever since then I get the error when something is downloaded and opened in the browser.
Works fine everywhere else and when I cancel the blank error, highlight the web address and press enter to reload it works 90% of the time.
Not sure what to do..

Using 10.6.8, internet pdf documents not opening using Adobe Reader; how is this corrected?

Using 10.6.8, internet pdf documents not opening using Adobe Reader; how is this corrected? I've tried changing "sharing and permissions" to "read and write" as suggested on other help sites, but this did not correct the problem.

I had the same problem---contacted Adobe and their service rep helped me by
A.   Deleting Adobe Reader from my iMac's Applications in Finder
B.   Downloading Google Chrome browser and then
C.   Downloading the latest Adobe Reader for Mac 10.6.8 in Google Chrome--it works
Adobe acknowledges problem with the latest Snow Leopard update 10.6.8 and with this work around, I can open PDF's using the Google Chrome Browser.
Is this the ideal solution---NO. Safari is my main browser. I now have to use a separate browser for PDF's.
Am I happy to be able to open PDF's---YES
You can't believe the time I spent to solve this problem before calling Adobe for help. My Apple Care policy expired a month ago . As I use Photoshop Elements, I was not charged by Adobe for their help on the telephone.

Why will PDF not open from email?

I recently modified my Adobe Reader 9.1 (with instructions from the bank) to be able to electronically sign documents.
Since then I can not open any PDF documents from email. I went back and reversed the changes I made. I uninstalled Adobe and reinstalled it. No luck.
I have to save the documents and open them from Windows Explorer.
Any Ideas?

A fast workaround for PDF problem (See my original post)
In Firefox:
Open Tools > Options > Under Main tab click Save files to > click Browse
Scroll up or down to find where you want it to go (I put mine under Documents because it's the easiest to find).
Click New folder and label it something you will quickly recognize.
Now when you click on a PDF attachment it will automatically be sent to that file and you can double click or open
it in Adobe Reader
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(Note) If I use Internet Explorer (I have not used IE in years) I can open PDF's from Hotmail with out a problem.
I like Firefox better so I will continue to use the quick workaround until somebody finds a fix.
If you use IE, here are the instructions for saving PDF files.
Click
to open Windows Mail.
Open a message that contains an attachment by double-clicking it
in the message list.
In the message window, click the File menu,
and then click Save Attachments.
Select the folder where you want to save the attachments.
By default,
Windows Mail saves attachments in your
Documents folder. If you want to save the attachments to a different folder,
click Browse, and then select a folder.
Select the attachments that you want to save, and then click Save.
