Rip out, Turn Off, Disable, Terminate ALL PDF IN SAFARI BROWSER please!

Once again (third time) I am trying to disable the display of PDFs inside the Safari browser window. Every time I do this, they update the system and come up with a new way to Turn it back on, grrrr.
I ONLY want PDFs to be downloaded and displayed in Acrobat Reader. I never want to EVER see again a PDF in a browser window.
HELP!

Quit Safari and...
i) Move 'AdobePDFViewer.plugin' out of 'HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins/'
ii) Enter "defaults write com.apple.Safari WebKitOmitPDFSupport -bool YES" without the quotes in Terminal (HD/Applications/Utilities/)
Remember, the preference which disables Safari's native PDF support (ii) is stored in the properly list (com.apple.Safari). Should you ever trash that file, you will have to reenter the command again.

  • NewBlueFX - CC versions - turning off GPU for all products needed

    I've had NewBlueFX plugins for quite a while now - but the one issue that bugs me about using them is I have to turn off GPU for all products when applying them (virtually every job). I was advised by NewBlue to do this when I was having problems editing and playback being messd around visually why editing.
    Just installed (correctly) their updated CUDA versions and still no difference in preformance and still have to turn off GPU...
    Clicking on the plugin applied>info>click "disable GPU for all products" and it all runs smoothly.
    Does anyone else have the same issue? Is it an issue or is this normal? Why?
    Should it not be that effects plugins like this should actually work with all the bells and whistles turned on - not off?
    Having spent out on a machine with 24 cores, a Quadro 2000 card and stacks of memory - the machine should be able to handle a NewBlueFX plugin with GPU and everything turned on...?
    Am willing to learn on this...

    Just below "Extras" in the View menu there is "Show...", where you can check/uncheck individual items - permanently.
    Ctrl+H (extras) is just a bucket to collect them all and turn off with a single shortcut.

  • Turned off Layers visible on PDFs in Mac Products

    I have several documents with what I call "reference layers" in them that I turn off when making a PDF. When I view the PDF on a Windows based machine, it is fine in both FireFox and IE. When viewing the PDF on a Mac product (iPad, iPhone, Mac desktop), the layers I have turned off are showing up in the PDF. Can anyone tell me why this is happening?

    If Mike's suggestion doesn't fix your issue, try this. When you save as a PDF with Create Acrobat layers on, the hidden layers can appear on older versions of Acrobat that do not support layers, and possibly other apps as well. Try un-checking this option. I believe a PDF saved with hidden Acrobat layers can have the hidden layers turned back on in Acrobat, so if you don't want anybody to see them, don't include them. On the other hand, if your PDF is complex and uses transparency, including layers should help prevent stitching.

    How to turn off "re-open all application windows". Even though its unselected in preferences. my computer still tries to do this and causes startup problems and delays. its been a hangup since lion. when are they going to fix this???

    Try this. . .
    You have two choices. You can choose that your applications not resume their previous state when you shutdown or restart the Mac by deselecting the checkbox that appears prior to shutdown:
    Or you can navigate to the General pane in System Preferences and deselect the Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps option. However, if you do this, applications will never resume their previous state, even when quit and restarted during a single boot session.

  • "If you turn off iCloud Drive, all documents stored on iCloud will be deleted from this Mac.

    My wife changed her iCloud password on her iPhone, and when she went to her iMac she changed her iCloud password there to match the iPhone. Then she got the following message:
    "if you turn off iCloud Drive, all documents stored on iCloud will be deleted from this Mac. This appears under her iCloud account. She has Yosemite on her iMac.
    So she's stuck. Any ideas?

    The documents remain in iCloud, but are removed from your mac.  So if she turns it off, they will be removed.  If she turns it back on, the documents would again be available.

  • How can I disable viewing of PDF-files in browser in Adobe Reader XI?

    Hi everyone
    After I have upgraded to Adobe Reader XI, I not longer can find the checkbox under settings>Internet, where I can disable that Adobe Reader XI viewing PDF-files in my browser.
    If I instead press on the button, I can see in the dialog box Adobe refers to an article there give me instruction to turn off the viewing of PDF-files via my browser settings. When I follow these instructions, I can see that the plug-in to Adobe is disabled when I not viewing PDF-files in my browser, and enabled when I viewing PDF-files in my browser.
    Therefore:
    1. Why has Adobe removed the checkbox where I can disable viewing of PDF-files in my browser?
    2. How can I now disable and enable viewing of PDF in my browser?
    My operating system is Windows 7 64-bit, and my browser is Internet Explorer 8.
    Very thanks.
    Regards,
    Boholdt

    Hi again
    I have read the article, but I can still not find the plugin I should
    disable in Internet Explorer 8.
    If I see a PDF-file in my browser, I can select and disable a plugin called
    PDF Adobe Reader, but next time I open Internet Explorer 8, I not can see
    the plugin.
    Another method is between the guide for accessibility
    (edit>Accessibility>Setup Assistant. On screen number 4, you can find the
    checkbox.
    Since I am blind, I can find the assistant.
    For my interessting, it is possible for sighted users of Adobe Reader to
    find the same assistant?
    Very thanks.
    Regards

    Accidental damage is not covered under Apple warranty.  And it seems there is much accidental damage.  Only a Genius Bar tech looking at it can tell how much it will cost to repair.
    Cost to repair will be high, I suspect (though Genius Bar will confirm/deny.
    There is no gentle way to say this sir/ma'am ... someone will need to pay for your friend's MBA repairs.

  • Is there a way to turn off/disable digital optical out? 1.9 iSight

    I have an iMac 1.9 with iSight. No sound from speakers except the startup chime.
    The digital optical out sound connecter is bad and the red light is on, and no it is not a matter of just getting the red light off... the connector is psychically broken as there is a little spring in the connector that came loose somehow.
    So I was wondering if somehow if digital optical sound could be disabled thereby allowing regular sound work?
    Thanks,
    Bill...

    Digital or analog output is determined by the connector inserted into your now-damaged socket. There is no way to 'turn off' digital output in such a manner that analog output will then be 'turned on.'
    I'll check to determine if your logic board can be repaired at a reasonable price and post back. Apple's stock solution is to exchange the module, and in your case, this otherwise exchangeable part if covered by warranty or an AppleCare extension to it would not typically be covered, because of what would be construed to be 'user abuse.' Don't be offended: that's the official term. Not an indication that you intentionally damaged to component.

  • Turned off Faces and all map options disappeared

    I was working on a brand new Aperture 3 Large size "Stock Book". I had about 300 pictures arranged on about 70 pages. I don't need/use the Faces option so, at one point today, I turned it off in the Aperture preferences. This caused my book to loose all of my picture placements and it's now blank, I believe, because the first page was a map. Now none of the map options appear in the page layout options and it's grayed-out in the Edit Layout option to add a map box. I've turned the Faces option back on, but there are still no options to add maps to my book nor any new book. Anyone know how to get the map options back in the books? Places is working fine for re-assigning all my manual locations since Aperture 3 is ignoring all my previously manually place-tagged iPhoto pictures when I import them.
    -Doug

    I've switched between every size and format and no map options appear in any of them (for any user). The map disappeared out of the first book I was working on without changing the size or style after turning off Faces. Disabling Faces was the only thing I changed. All I'm doing with Aperture is creating this one book (so far). On my iMac at work (where I was testing Aperture 3 Trial before installing the purchased copy on my MacBook) I can select a "Large" size "Photo Essay" style book and the maps are available as options on prepared layouts and I can add a map. On my MacBook the maps do not appear.

  • Why is U2's new album turning off playing of all songs?!?!

    Hi,
    I have an iphone 5s 64GB, today as I was listening to music in shuffle mode,  I fast forwarded through a song and suddenly all audio stopped, I took the headphones off and tried playing without headphones, and it still didn't work, so then I turned off my phone completely restarted and I could listen to music again. After a few songs the music turned off again. I repeated the process. I was pretty upset at this point, I had noticed both times that the new U2 stuff was there when it stopped playing, I don't really care about U2 being put on my iphone although I would probably remove them anyway I only like stuff I've chosen on it.
    Anyway then I restarted again, and then I started playing, went forward through 10 songs without a problem and then back to the U2 song Cedarwood Road, and I noticed a couple things
    1 it didn't play, even though it was set to play ( I had assumed before that songs were playing but not making any sound. I put the song forward by a minute, pressed the pause button and then play, the tracker went all the way back to 0:00.
    2. When I went forward again to a new song, I experienced the same thing - it won't play.
    I then turned off the phone again, turned it back on, went to the music app which started at Ted Leo and the Pharmacists again, I then went one song back to Cedarwood Road - but it was no longer there!!! First of all clicking the back button just kept restarting Ted Leo and the Pharmacists, I instead had to click multiple times in quick succession (  approx. 10 times ) to go back the next song, which was no long Cedarwood Road but the song that was before Cedarwood Road in my shuffled tracks. I then went back a lot of tracks to get see what the **** had happened when I got to California ( there is no end to love ) and again - song stops playing, I cannot play other songs. I went back before that track by a couple tracks, restarted went forward a couple tracks the song has again disappeared from my track listing.
    Now - IF this is Apple's solution to people complaining about U2, well then they just turned a free album giveaway into inserting active malware onto people's phones, and I guess I'm one of the lucky winners.
    If this is part of how it worked in the first place I can certainly understand why nobody wanted the gift, which I should point out that gift in danish means poison ( also marriage, hah hah).
    I think someone  from the company actively putting malware on people's computers should contact me and help me get it off, and also identify the problem so they can fix it before it harms any more of their customers.

    I just fast forwarded through the tracks after I had restarted again and while the California song was gone from my shuffle order the Cedarwood Road song was back exactly where it was before.

  • Random laptop screen Black out / Turn off .

     Hi, 
     first of all my laptop is : HP Pavilion dv6-6160se Entertainment Notebook
    to the problem now
    A few days ago my laptops screen started  out of a sudden shutting down/turning black( no lights at all ). This was happening while using the laptop at random. The screen  had no lights, and if i use a flashlight on it there is nothing. like its turned off completelly.
    Before this happens. Ths behavior varies. Sometimes it flickers from my desktop to a black screen then back on and some times not. Most of the times screen changed to a radom color (green mostly) then becomes black/shuts down.
     NOTE: The laptop keeps runing, i can hear the videos playing so it probably isnt a gpu chip or gpu issue , music and games.
    I searched the web for all kind of reasons that this could happen and tried some of the fixes .
    Here are everything i tried and all or the details i could accumulate in past coupe of days:
    1. If the screen flickers , blacks out and then turns back on i get a message that gpu drivers have stopped working and recovered (  on both amd and intel ).
    2. If the screen blacks out, on rare ocasions if you close the laptop lid and let the laptop go to sleep , when waking up screen works again ( noticable due to screen moving)
    3. I tried installing 4 different drivers all with clear install. ( didn't work)
    4. I tried to  to recover system with restore point. ( didn't work)
    5. I tried to lower the screen brightness. ( didn't work)
    6. tried this trick: 
    Turn off laptop
    Remove battery
    Hold the power buttong for 30-45 seconds
    Plug-in the charger ( dont put the battery in )
    Turn on laptop and see if it works.
    Very Noticable details:
    7.  Since  on of the rare fixes requires to move the lid  i tried shaking the screen a bit or pushing it slightly to different directions. This actually  does the trick and turns the screen back on ( i am right now typing  this after using this "trick"
    So, with this one as a hint there are a couple of stuff i have in mind but i am not sure  and need help since i am not a technician.
    a) There is a loose LCD cable and when i type a little vibration moves it and ends up in a black screen.
    b) I read that if you use a flashlight and you cant see  your desktop it means its a bad inverter.
    c) Can the inverter have a lose cabe instead of the lcd ?
    That's all the feedback i could give you that i can recall now.
    Currecntly the screen looks ok ( maybe its the certain angle it has after i moved it  so i would aprecciate a fast reply before  it goes black again
    EDIT: Tried to play a game for a few mins and i got the black screen again. Closed the lid  so the laptop goes in sleep mode then opened it and it worked. Just for the records.
    EDIT#2: Just tried to play a game again. got the blackscreen, shaked the screen a bit and it worked but for the 1st time i get the message " Application has been blocked from accessing graphics hardware" , Can it be that its the GPU after all or maybe drivers? 
    EDIT#3: Tried to play a game again and it seem to trigger the issue . ( i am currently running the laptop with only the intel drivers installed)
    thanks in advance
    Sincerely,
    Ntas
    P.S. Please feel free to ask me any question if you need more information, i am not a laptop expert but i know   more than the average person
    This question was solved.

    Hi @Ntas 
    I have read through your post and it seems there are a couple of possibilities, and I noted that you have already tried several of the things I would normally suggest.
    I will however post some of those links anyway for you to review, it is always possible there may be something in one of them that may have been missed or may inspire an idea of the cause. Since you mentioned that sometimes just moving the screen will cause the problem or make it disappear, that does seem like either a loose connection or maybe something like pressure on a part of the display causing the issue.  Of course that last part may just mean the display is on its last legs, but hopefully not.
    First I will give you a link to the service manual, to help you check the connections. Just be careful to read the sections on precautions, to protect yourself and to prevent any other damage.This manual is also useful in that it lists all the compatible parts, so if the display is defective you could use this guide to help order a compatible replacement if you choose to do so.
