PDF opens in browser and not default application

When i click on a pdf file in a document library, it opens in the same web page instead of Adobe reader. I've set the feature of open documents in default application but in vain.
Any thoughts?
Thanks a lot in advance

Hi,
From your description, I know you want to open SharePoint 2013 PDF files with default application.
You could re-install your Adobe Reader, and then test this issue. Also, you can have test in another computer with Adobe Reader.
If this issue is still exist, please refer to this article:

Reg key to set PDF opening in Reader and not the web browser

Is there a reg key which would apply to all users/computer (not just current user, Hkey_user) to set a variable that would open PDF's in the actual Adobe Reader program and not in a web browser.
I only find references to reg key's that apply to the current users logged in, but unfortunately I work in an education facility and we use Dynamic user id's which creates a new user each time in windows, and then removes the profile on logout
Thanks in advance,

Would you suggest downloading the Adobe Customization Wizard and creating an MST file to distribute the app? If so, do you have documentation on where to change this setting?

Hi I would like to know, how do I add a Hyperlink on Flash, that opens a PDF in adobe reader and not the web browser.

Yoh, what is FSCCommanr ? sorry man I am an absolute beginner in Flash. I tried the code:
/* Click to Go to Web Page
Clicking on the specified symbol instance loads the URL in a new browser window.
Instructions:
1. Replace http://www.adobe.com with the desired URL address.
Keep the quotation marks ("").
instance_name_here.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToWebPage);
function fl_ClickToGoToWebPage(event:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.adobe.com"), "_blank");
this is the same code I used before and it opens a pdf file in a web browser, and it doesn't open an AutoCAD file.

How can I have links within emails read with Seamonkey open on the default Firefox browser and not the Seamonkey browser?

I use the SeaMonkey 2.0 mailer for my email client and Firefox 3.6 for my default browser. A link embedded in an email (read with SeaMonkey) opens the SeaMonkey browser and not Firefox. How can I have it open on Firefox?
(SeaMonkey is not set up as the default browser and Firefox is.)

Acrobat print window crashed when try to a print the PDF opened through browser

Hi,
I have Acobat pro and reader installed on my machine.
I have set the properties - Open pdf in browser. So, all the PDFs are opening in browser uses Acrobat not the reader.
And this is way I want. It was woking fine on Windows XP.
After Windows 7 upgrade, Print option on acrobat (pdf opened in browser), makes browser crashed. Printing window (pop up) appears but looks it is hanged. No OK, cancel buttons appears.
If I uncheck the acrobat properties - Open pdf in browser, then it works fine. But my other applications which need acrobat in the browser start crashing.
Is there any property/setting which is restricting print dialog box/ making browser not to respond?
Please advise.

Yes, I updated Acrobat through update option last week.
Acrobat 9.5.2
Windows 7 64 bit OS
Adobe Reader XI
Browser IE 10
In print window couple of fields which get drop down automatically have blank values.
Please let me know if you need more information.
Arcobat shows proper print window (pop up) if I uncheck the checkbox - Open pdf in browser. And then I open pdf in acrobat and try to print it.

How open a file and not showing window?

I write a script to do some work automatic,
for Indesign script, its application open method could open a file and not showing window,
the open method has a parameter [ShowingWindow] (if true, show the document window).
That is good a feature for me.
But with Illustrator, the application open method hasn't the same feature.
Open
(files as String,
[documentColorSpace as AiDocumentColorSpace],
[options as Object])
and for OpenOptions properties, there is not useful information for me.
Is there any other methods could do that?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank for your reply.

Is there a way to open a browser and it "starts" with opening many tabs?

Is there a way to open a browser and it "starts" with opening many tabs?
e.g. I open a browser - and it starts on 3 or 4 tabs?

Leave them open when you shuit Safari down. It doesn't have a home page function.
You might check the app store for some alternate browsers. I beleive there a few that will do this.

Edit smart object open in preview and not ai...

Hello,
Al working on a layout with CS4 master collection. In PS I pasted an ai as a smart object.... But now when I edit the smart object it opens in preview and not AI.
Any thoughts?
thanks

The matter has come up recently already, a forum search turns up:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2416222#2416222
So unless updating the OS helps the problem may be persistent.
A work-around may be to Export Contents, edit in Illustrator, save that and then Replace Contents back in Photoshop.

Am I the only one who gets exited out of everything on my iPhone?! I will open up Instagram and not even 2 minutes later it will close down. How do I fix this?! It's so annoying.

I will assume you are using a slower iPhone 4 on iOS 7 if you are experiencing such problems so frequently. You might already be trying this, but my first suggestion would be to double tap the home button and see what you have running. You might not be quitting any of the apps you open. To stop an app from running and slowing down your phone, after double-tapping, slide the preview cards up for apps you don't need to run.

How do I make IE open PDF inside browser and not prompt?

I am using IE 11, Adobe Reader 11.0.06.
When I try to open a PDF inside a browser window (for example this one: http://helpx.adobe.com/dk/pdf/acrobat_reference.pdf) I am prompted to Open, Save or Save As. I want open the document directly without being prompted.
How can I achieve that?

I have now tried the following: Adobe Reader was completely uninstalled. I then downloaded and installed the Adobe Reader 11.0.00 package directly from the Adobe site and upgraded it to 11.0.06 afterwards.
In this default configuration it works - PDF files on web pages open directly in Internet Explorer (Windows 7, IE 10).
I then removed Reader and ran our deployed version (from SCCM). Then it failed to show PDF's in the browser, as before.
So a setting in our TRANSFORMS file could be an issue. Does anyone know if you can set this open/do-not-open in browser inside the MST file using Adobe Reader Configuration Utility? Our installation CMD file looks like this:
REM *** Install Reader 11 MUI base package
msiexec /i [\\servername]\source$\Applications\AdobeReader11\AdbeRdr11000_mui_Std\acroread.msi TRANSFORMS=\\[servername]\source$\Applications\AdobeReader11\AcroRead.mst LANG_LIST=[language] /passive
REM *** Install 11.0.06 MUI update
msiexec /update \\[servername]\source$\Applications\AdobeReader11\AdbeRdrUpd11006_MUI.msp /passive
