Reader plug in missing

Safari 5.1.1 on Lion, keeps telling me plug in is missing for Adobe Reader X 10.1.1.
I have downloaded it a couple of times and it works fine any where outside of Safari.
It works fine in Firefox.
Any advice?

Unfortunately, at this time, many Adobe products don't play well with Mac OS X Lion.  According to the Adobe website:
Adobe Reader plug-in and Acrobat plug-in are not compatible with the Safari 5.1 browser, included with Mac OS 10.7 and for 10.6 in July 2011. Adobe Reader and Acrobat will continue to work as standalone applications on Mac OS 10.7 and 10.6, and will render PDF documents outside of the browser. In addition, Safari 5.1 renders PDF documents natively. However, the Adobe Reader and Acrobat plug-ins will not function as expected in LiveCycle and Acrobat workflows that require either plug-in to render PDF documents in Safari 5.1.
Adobe is working on a solution, but in the meantime, it advises against upgrading.  So I'm still using Snow Leopard and Safari 5.0.5.
And I guess I'll have to stay with 5.0.5 until Adobe and Apple have worked out their differences, but I only use Safari when I need to fill out smart forms online. 
I have no plans to upgrade to Lion, and until all the problems are sorted out, I'm only going to apply security updates to Snow Leopard.

  • Missing Adobe Reader Plug-In for Chrome

    Chrome Version: 26.0.1410
    Operating System: Mac OSX 10.6.8
    Extensions: None
    When trying to open a PDF inside of Chrome, I receive an error to disable the Chrome default PDF view and use Adobe Reader instead.
    Using this website: http://support.google.com/chrome/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=142056, I disabled the Chrome PDF Viewer plug-in.
    I then opened Adobe Reader and went to Preferences > Internet. There should be a check box for Web Browser Options. Instead, I see a web page link that instructs me to disable Adobe Reader plug-ins within Chrome.
    But when I open the chrome://plugins, I do not have any for Adobe Reader.
    How can I disable something that isn't there?

    Look for a plugin that supports PDF; Reader is an application, not a file format, so it may not be listed that way in the plugin list. If not, you may just have to download the PDFs and open them in Reader manually but you can try asking for help in the Chrome forums:

  • Quicktime plug-in missing in Safari, works fine in Firefox

    Lion is working fine on my 2008 iMac - except - I can't play QuickTime movies. It tells me there is a plug-in missing.  This only happens with Safari. When I view the same site in Firefox, the QuickTime files play fine. 
    What's going on here?

    I found this answer on another thread, which may help - it fixed it for me:
    Fixed the problem by going into Safari preferences, Extensions, and turned off the extensions for DivX... a temp fix, but will do for now!

  • Adobe Reader Plug-in shows error 'Invalid plugin detected. Adobe Reader will quit.'

    I followed all the steps provided in the development guide. Still it shows this error. Please provide any help!

    No Luck
    We received the 'RIKLA-DigCert.rc' file along with 'T&C of Adobe' file. I followed the following steps as provided by Adobe's Developer's guide:
    After receiving the digital certificate, enable the plug-in for Adobe Reader, by performing the following tasks:
    1.Make a copy of dummy.rc and put it in your project directory.
    2.Open your plug-in project in Visual Studio. Make sure you are in Resource View.
    Adobe Acrobat SDK Creating an Adobe Reader Plug-In
    Developing Plug-ins and Applications Creating resource files on the UNIX platform 248
    3.Open dummy.rc from your project directory. Copy the API_ENCRYPTED_DIGEST data segment (a dummy encrypted digest) to the resource portion of your plug-in.
    4.Open the digital certificate file returned to you by Adobe. Copy the API_DIGITAL_CERTIFICATE data segment (your digital certificate) to the resource portion of your plug-in.
    5.Rebuild your plug-in. The plug-in will be created with the correct API_DIGITAL_CERTIFICATE data segment and a dummy API_ENCRYPTED_DIGEST data segment, which will be replaced with real data in the next steps.
    But the problem is, when I open ''RIKLA-DigCert.rc' file, I got only ' 
    API_DIGITAL_CERTIFICATE' inside but no'API_ENCRYPTED_DIGEST' as shown in Step-3. How do I get that? Also, we have already created Acrobat Plugin file which has got our project resource file (.rc). How do I use the same plugin for Adobe Reader as well? Is there any step missing? please provide any help as this is stopping our progress even after getting the License. Thanks in advance!  

  • ESB TDM Plug in missing

    I try to use EXS Instruments on my DAE AUX objects. I am not able to do so, althoug I was able to do so in OS9 wiht out problems. Logic during start up complaints "ESB Plug In missing". Consequently when I try to make an Audio object to a TDM object, "direct TDM" is greyed out. Where might the plug in be gone? Can I download it anywere? Please help!

    t.kuerrev, "ESB TDM Plug in missing" #3, 05:51pm Sep 24, 2005 CDT
    The manual says, as soon as I install a Protools System with a appropiate DAE, the TDM EXS should work too.
    Yeh, but PT should be installed before you run the Logic installer, otherwise how can it find the Digidesign plugins folder to install the ESB to ?
    What the manual says , right in the beginning, is:
    We have also assumed that you have connected your TDM system to your Macintosh,
    and have installed (and tested) the Pro Tools system software. A correctly installed and
    operational ProTools system will ensure a reliable Logic Pro/DAE system.

  • Problem with Adobe Reader Plug-In (7, 8, and 9) on Windows XP

    We are experiencing a problem with the Adobe Reader plug-in and viewing documents hosted at our site.  The problem seems to happen with larger (over 5 MB) PDF files enabled for fast web viewing.  The problem never happens when viewing PDF image only files which are not enabled for fast web viewing.  The problem happens inside and outside our firewall, so it is not a firewall problem.  My organization has been hosting PDF files to the web at least all this decade, and this is the first time we have experienced and documented this problem on this scale.  We have ruled out the program creating the PDF file is causing the problem as I have eight sample PDF files created and modified by a variety of programs exhibiting the same issue.

    I can reproduce the problem with Internet Explorer 8.0.6 and Firefox 3.5.4 using Adobe Acrobat Plug-In 7.0.9.50 running on Windows XP Professional SP3.  Others have reproduced the problem with 8 and 9 versions of the plug-in on Windows XP Professional and Home.  Oddly, no one has been able to reproduce the problem with Unix/Linux versions of the plug-in or third party plug-ins.  This points to it being something wrong with Adobe Reader.
    The problem is when I attempt to view one of the eight PDFs in my browser, I can severely stall or lock it up if I attempt to view more than the first page before the whole document downloads.  Sometimes if you wait it out, the browser will unlock, but not display text on the pages.  Sometimes if you wait for the whole document to load before switching pages, it works.  Sometimes you can start switching pages and the document will not lock up at all.  All eight documents can be viewed without issue if downloaded to the PC's hard drive and then viewed with Adobe Acrobat 7.0.
    Can anyone point me to a technical document or reason why we would be experiencing this issue?  Even better, does anyone know the solution to these issues?
    Any help will be much appreciated.

    I looked at a few documents. They appear to be scans and scans that have been OCRd. It is also likely they have not been optimized for page view. This means that the document has to be fully downloaded before viewed. That means the browser may appear to freeze until the entire document is downloaded. Downloading the entire document appears to be a reasonable way to handle these files.

  • I am experiencing difficulties opening some web-based PDF files on my iPad. I was having the same difficulty opening the same PDFs on my iMac (after I upgrade to Yosemite) but was able to overcome it by adjusting the Adobe Reader plug-in settings.

    I am experiencing difficulty opening some web-based PDF documents on my iPad. I had exactly the same difficulty on my iMac (after I upgraded to Yosemite) but was able to overcome it by adjusting the Adobe Reader plug-in security settings in Safari (in OSX).
    Unfortunately there does not seem to be a way to similarity adjust the security settings in Safari in iOS 8.
    The message I get when I attempt to open the PDF (on my iPad) is as follows:
                "To view the full contents of this document you need a later version of PDF viewer. You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader from ..."
    Needless to say this is unhelpful for two reasons:
    - I have the very latest version of Adobe Reader; and
    - in iOS Adobe Reader is not a plug-in and plays absolutely no role in opening web-based PDF documents.      
    If anyone has experienced this difficulty and has been able to overcome it I would be most appreciative to hear of you solution.
    Cheers

  • Who can share some Adobe Reader plug-in development documentation besides SDK documentation?

    Hi,
    I want to develop a Adobe Reader plug-in to realize a function that I can delete/insert the pdf file's content when open a PDF file, but the SDK documentation is too indistinct to me, for example: which callback method I should to call? I read the AS_Layer of the SDK documentation, it seems that the PMSetTextProc should be invoke?  How and where should I to invoke this callback method? The SDK documentation doesn't provide a sample.
    Who can share me some more detailed Adobe Reader plug-in development documentation? or who can give me some advice how to read and use the SDK documentation?

    thank you Test Screen Name, thanks for help me these days.
    I want to realize a function, read a encrypted PDF file's content and then decrypt the content, and show the decrypted content in the PDF file when open a PDF file with Adobe Reader. so I need to call a callback method to capture the moment of open PDF file and display it.
    I read the content of Acrobat Core API of SDK documentation, this documentation describe the Portable Document layer as follows:
    PDFEdit methods deal with the physical representation of a PDF document. More specifically, PDFEdit methods handle page content as a list of objects whose values and attributes are modifiable. These methods allow your plug-in or PDF Library application to read, write, edit, and create page contents and page resources, which may contain fonts, images, and so on.
    I look up PDFEdit_Layer in the SDK API,  not found the callback method to response to open PDF file and display content, so I think that may be my idea is wrong.
    Could you point out my mistakes?

  • Safari and Adobe Reader Plug-in

    Hello,
    Because of some weird setup on the web site where I was getting the PDF file from, I had to get Adobe Reader Plug-in. I downloaded it, installed, everything seemed fine. But - still no plug in. Looked in ~/library/Internet Plug ins, nothing there (at all!). This reminded me that I had problems with other Adobe plug in, such as Flash.
    Anybody knows what is going on? I run Safari 4.0.4, on MacBook Pro with OS X 10.6.2. I did all the maintenance - Reset Cashe, Reset Safari.

  • Installing Acrobat Reader Plug-In Only (Not Full App)

    I'm curious to know if its possible to load the Adobe Acrobat Reader Plug-in portion only in IE and Firefox. Ideally I'd prefer to not have to install the entire application just to view PDF's in IE/Firefox as I rely on a third party application to view, and manipulate, PDF's outside of the browsers. Yes, I can change the association of .PDF's in Explorer or re-install (or perform a repair installation of) the application to restore the file associations, but if I can avoid installing Adobe Acrobat Reader all together, I'd prefer that route.
    Is this possible or does the application have to be installed?
    Thanks
    Jules

    It needs to be installed.
