PDF Preview Issues since 10.6.5 Update

I've noted posts of similar PDF issues since the 10.6.5 update, though not exactly like mine. Since the update some PDF's are not rendering properly.
Specifically no text shows up (though the headers / graphics, underlines and text boxes were there). I forwarded the email to iMac running 10.6.4, and no issues, it reads fine. My iPhone also reads it fine.
Anyone having similar issue? Trying to understand whether this is some over-zealous security thing in the new update (note: I trust source of the PDF in question), since other PDF's can be read with no problems.
Thanks,
Kevin

Thanks LD. Did the repair, reinstall, repair as suggested however the PDF's in question still do not show the written (font) part of the doc. So I investigated further asking the authors how they created their PDF and both were on a cheap (free?) version of Nitro.
So, I think I'll put this issue as solved, since I'm guessing that 10.6.5 just won't play nicely with all PDF creators until the 3rd parties do their own updates.

  • Outlook PDF preview issue without adobe

    I would like to preview PDF documents in outlook but I do not want to use the Adobe (or any other 3rd party)  suite to do so.
    I can open the documents in Microsoft's 'Reader' but not in the preview pane. I have looked under trust center settings and have an Outlook message and items checked but no pdf preview to check

    Hi,
    I'm using Office 2013 along with Windows 8.1, I can confirm there is no build-in PDF previewer in Outlook 2013. It seems we have to use some plug-ins to preview PDF in Outlook.

  • Major iPad 3 WiFi connection issues since 5.1.1 update

    Prior to the 5.1.1 update (which ironically was supposed to fix wifi issues), my iPad 3 worked great.  Since the update it has been a complete disaster. 
    Even though it always shows a strong wifi connection, certain apps seem to have no connection while others work fine.  Safari usually works ok, although sometimes pictures won't show up - just a small box in the corner.  Facebook app always seems to have issues as does Pandora.  The biggest problem is the App Store or iTunes which say it cannot connect even though Safari works fine at the same time.  Ive tried reconnecting, rebooting, and I even bought a new router since I thought maybe my old one was causing the problem.
    Is Apple fessing up to this issue?  I have to believe it is a software/firmware issue since before the update everthing worked fine.

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • Call connection issues since iOS 8.1 update

    Ever since the iOS 8 update on mine & wife's iPhones (5s & 5c) we have had nothing but issues with receiving various phone calls, even with the newer updates with bif fixes etc the problem persists. We have tried to remedy it by turning off the 4g option as we heard this was a solution but no change. Same with wifi also. It's not a network problem as we have a very good signal. Like I said we have had this problem from the moment iOS 8 arrived, we're now on iOS 8.1, still no change. Does anyone have a clue to fix this?

    Same issue here, both my boyfriend and I updated our iPads and iPhones to 8.1, now FT crashes constantly, when we try to FT from iPhone to iPad we just get "connecting" and nothing happens. If we do iPhone wifi to iPhone cellular we get same "connecting" problem. If we do iPhone to iPhone and enable cellular it connects. When we do iPad wifi to iPad wifi it connects but then crashes constantly. I have tried ft with others who have not done the updates and it works fine Using the same Internet connection. We have switched to skype to video chat and it works just fine, so it can't be an Internet issue.

  • Mail won't preview messages since 10.9.3 update

    Since the last OS update Mail does not like to preview.  When I get new mail or scroll through recent messages the preview pane show "Loading.." or just dark gray (no content).  If I double click and open the message in a window I get the same result.
    Tried Genius Bar.  They dleted a plist file and it help for a few minutes.
    Tried to Rebuild.  No deiscernable help there.

    Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
    Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
    A folder window will open. Inside it there should be files with names as follows:
    Envelope Index
    ExternalUpdates.storedata
    Move those files to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have longer names that begin as above. Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
    Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK. Typically, the process takes a few minutes, but it may take hours if you have gigantic mailboxes. In that case, you may be able to speed things up by temporarily adding your home folder to the Privacy list in the Spotlight preference pane. Remove it when Mail has finished importing.
    Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

  • Adobe Pro 9 Issues since 6/17/11 Update

    Adobe Pro 9 presents the following issues since I updated it on 6/17/11:
    Before the update, I could select multiple pages in the Pages thumbnail view by using my Shift or Ctrl key while selecting the thumbnails with my mouse, this no longer happens since the update. When I click either my Shift or Ctrl and try to click on the thumbnails, nothing happens! and,
    Before the update whenever I did a Find for something on a converted document, that which met my search criteria would be highlighted on each page. This, too, is no longer the case since the update.
    I REALLY wish I could go back to Adobe Pro 9 before the 6/17/11 update because the update has been more of a downgrade.

    Obviously there were no answers to this issue. In reading this was an ongoing issue that has yet to be resolved within Adobe. It appears to go back several years with numerous threads on very similar issues. Does Adobe just not care about this that anyone can see. As a small business the constant upgrading is very inefficient cost wise.

  • PDF Preview Issue

    I am not sure where to post this, so feel free to tell me if there is a better spot.
    I have a simple issue, I was sent a .pdf file that has text boxes where I can input information. After filling them out, I obviously want to save. When I save however, Preview informs me that I need to Save As a copy or .pdf information will be lost. It gives me no other option, so when I do this and reopen the document all the text I have input disappears. Is there a way to save the text that I input? I understand that normally text can't be saved in a .pdf, but for the file I need to fill out, there are obvious text boxes that look like I can input text and save it.
    Simple issue, but I can't figure it out. Really appreciate any help.

    Try "Print to PDF" from the "PDF" button at the bottom-left of the "Print" dialog window. If that won't work, you can install a virtual printer using CUPS-PDF

  • ICal/Google sync issues since iOS 8.2 update

    Since the update to iOS 8.2 a few days ago, iCal on my iPhone 5s is not syncing with my Google Calendar.  I have already reset the 2 step verification on my Google calendar permissions, checked to make sure events are in the Google calendar and not in the iPhone calendar, and checked settings to make sure the Google calendar is selected.  The only thing I have not tried (because I'm worried that changes I made prior to realizing thisi was an issue would be lost) is deleting my Google account from the iPhone and reconnecting.  Is that really my only remaining option?  I'm stumped. 

    I'm facing the same issue on iOS 8.2 iPhone6. iCal is not syncing on the iPhone. It does, however, sync from Yosemite to iCloud.com.

  • Connection and Keyboard Issues (since 10.5.5 update?)

    Not quite the connection issues others are having, once Airport is connected, it stays connected. The issue is with initial connection. When I wake the Macbook up from sleep, I can't click to load anything on the internet/ in email for almost a full minute. If I do, or if mail tries checking for new email, whatever is attempting to load continues to attempt doing so for about 30 seconds or so, when it then tells me that I am not connected to the internet. Airport, however connects to the wifi just as quickly as ever (or, at least, it says it's connected). I just started noticing this issue the other day, around the time I updated to 10.5.5, so I can only assume it's from the update. I have not had any connection issues before this (the Macbook is about 3 months old).
    The other issue I've noticed does not happen consistently. Once in a while, when I press the button to decrease screen brightness, the brightness decreases completely and the screen turns black. The other day, I opened the computer up, and the screen was "stuck" black. I couldn't get the brightness to increase. While trying to tap keys to "wake it up," at one point I heard a ding, as if there was an alert that I needed to click OK on or something. I ended up giving up and holding the power button down to shut down and reboot, and haven't had the problem again since.
    I've searched the forums to see if others are having these problems, but all I can find is problems with frequent connection drops, and, like I said, I'm not have that issue.

    Help?
    This is very frustrating.

  • Strange Typing issue since latest OS X update

    I cannot type in any finder window since updating to 10.5.7
    I can copy and paste, but I can't type. I can type on the desktop and in spotlight, but once I open the spotlight window (view all results) or open a finder window, the keyboard keys stop functioning.
    Is anyone else experiencing this? What could be causing this. I've tried a wired white Pro Apple Keyboard (I use the wireless white Pro Apple Keyboard) but it didn't fix the issue either.

    Hi Sandy:
    Try trashing the preference file (com.apple.finder.plist) and restarting.

  • IMAP gmail issues since software 2.2 update!!

    I recently (yesterday) downloaded 2.2 for iPhone. Since then I have had gmail email issues on the phone. Today I tried the following things - all with the same result (cannot connect using SSL, account verification failed, IMAP server errors):
    Have restarted phone (several times).
    Have erased mail account and entered again (tried with google button, used "other" and tried both IMAP and POP) (several times each)
    Have checked my gmail account for issues (both enabled for IMAP and POP)
    Can someone help me? Not much of a point of having an update which is supposed to help the "push" issues, when you can't access email at all. Does anyone know if Google is having issues?
    Thanks!

    In case anyone viewing was wondering, I think their must've been an outage at gmail this afternoon for a while. The exact same settings now work for IMAP. I'm gonna cross my fingers that it doesn't keep happening

  • Weird Firewire Issue since 10.5.6 update

    Hey guys!
    I'm a musician so I use an audio interface (Presonus FP10) to record my stuff. It's a firewire interface and it used to work perfectly fine.
    However, since the 10.5.6 update there seems to be something wrong with my firewire port and I haven't found anything on the web that fits my problem.
    If I plug in my interface into the firewire port, it doesn't work. It neither goes on nor is recognized by the OS.
    Although, once I plug in my ethernet cable for internet access, it works fine.
    Problem with this is that in my music room there is no possibiliy of pluging an ethernet cable.
    I hope somebody can tell me what to do in order to get this fixed, whether this problem is caused by Leopard or by my interface.
    Thanks,
    Mark

    That was my first guess, too. See, that's what makes it all so weird:
    I have the device plugged in with no other cable. Nothing happens. I have the ethernet cable plugged in without anything connected to that. Nothing happens. I then plug it into an internet router ét voilá! It works...Could it maybe be a lack of electricity coming from a damaged AC-Unit connected to the device?
    But then again, it all worked fine up to the 10.5.6 update. Did the apple people do something to the firewire driver?I hear the new Macbooks come without Firewire...

  • Render and preview issues with Premiere CC 2014 update

    Rendering issues: Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014.0.1 Update does not fix" Occasional instance where sequences could never finished rendering"
    It's been 3 days 3 technicians and still same issue. Everything has been tried except starting over which is not an option. Worked
    fine in CS6.  
    1. Optimization of windows and tweek premiere memory settings,
    2. GPU updates,
    3. Software only render,
    4.render section at a time works (but who has time for that),
    5. Tweek virtual memory, - clean cache, clean temp files,
    6. hardware considerations, drives, etc...
    7. Other
    Ceremony completed render except for export in older computer. Please fix issue or give money back until you do!
    The rendering of footage of:
    1. render worked (on complex Ceremony 19 min sequence with AVCHD format and HDV) in an old computer. - Core 2 DUO Quad 8 gb ram 2g
    b GPU
    2. Same sequence of Ceremony (19 min sequence with AVCHD format and HDV) did not work in the faster computer. - i7 QUAD core 16 ram
    1 or 2 GB GPU
    3. Reception sequence of HDV footage only did not on both computer.
    Please call the exterminator and get rid of all the bugs. I am spending more time
    troubleshooting than editing….and that is bad

    You really aren't reading what we write.
    Let's break it down:
    Suitcase isn't working with the new application versions, because Suitcase has bugs in it's code or just doesn't know about the new application versions.
    The only way to fix that is to fix the code for Suitcase.
    Suitcase is written by Extensis, so only Extensis can fix the code for Suitcase.
    So you are waiting on Extensis to fix their code to work correctly with the new applications.
    This is not about the CC 2014 applications, this is about Extensis code not working, and Extensis needing to provide an update to make their code work.
    To get a working version of Suitcase (which requires fixing bugs in Suitcase), you need to talk to Extensis.
