Safari 5.1.7, using Adobe Reader 10.1.3, does not display pdf files.

I use Safari 5.1.7 and Adobe Reader 10.1.3.  I have mac osx.6.8 which, according to Adobe, is compatible with Adobe Reader 10.1.3.  Selecting a pdf file to display results in a black page.  Why?

Hi..
Try removing a plugin...
Quit Safari.
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type this exactly as you see it here:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Move the Adobe PDF Browser plugin (or just PDF Browser plugin) from the Internet Plug-Ins folder to the Trash.
Relaunch Safari to test.

  • Safari 7.0.6, using Adobe Acrobat 11.0.10, aren't rendering pdf files in the Print Preview screen.  Additionally, only a single, blank page prints for a multi-page pdf document.  Any ideas?

    Safari 7.0.6, using Adobe Acrobat 11.0.10, isn't rendering pdf files in the Print Preview screen.  Additionally, only a single, blank page prints for a multi-page pdf document.  Any ideas?

    Figured it out.  It had nothing to do with the software levels of Safari or Adobe Acrobat.  Here's the fix:
    Open Finder/Applications
    Search "Internet Plug-Ins"
    Move any Adobe plug-ins to the trash
    Quit Safari
    Launch Safari
    Your pdf document should now render in Print Preview and print properly.

  • Safari does not display PDF files?

    My Safari browser does not display pdf files.  Whenever a site I'm reading links to a pdf file, a new page open in black but without content.

    Try this ...
    Open a Finder window then from the menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    Click Go.
    If you see the:  AdobePDFViewer plugin in the Internet Plug-Ins folder, move it to the trash.
    Restart your Mac and try opening a PDF file.

  • Safari 6 does not display pdf files!

    No matter what website I go to if I need to display a pdf file especially on government sites which I deal with a lot being a paralized vet. I have to tell you I am disappointed with the last couple vers. of Safari. Half the time auto fill doesn't work. Many times i'll just type the name of the address and in past versions of Safari it would fill in the other stuff, www., .com, etc. Well not any more. I've switched to making Google Chrome since it displays pdf's. Apple, you cn do better than this!!! O, by the way I've been using Apple products since the iic, and I've been using the internet from it's beginnings.This is the first time I"ve had any complaint about Safari up until now it's been my browser of choice.

    David...
    All browsers require some maintenance at one time or another, or troubleshooting whether it's Safari, or Chrome, Firefox.. etc. I've yet to have any issues with Safari 6 on Mountain Lion.
    For the PDF issue...
    Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type this exactly as you see it here:   /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    Click Go then move the AdobePDF Browser plugin (or just PDF Browser plugin) from the Internet Plug-Ins folder to the Trash.  Quit then relaunch Safari to test.
    For autofill. Try troubleshtooting the Safari.plist (preferences)
    Back to the Finder. Go > Go to Folder.
    Type this:   ~/LIbrary/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
    Click Go the move the Safari .plist file to the Desktop. Quit then relaunch Safari to test.
    If that that helped the autofill issue, move the .plist file to the Trash. If not, move it back to the Preferences folder.
    If that didn't work, Go > Go to Folder.
    Type this:  ~/LIbrary/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Click Go the move the Cache.db file to the Trash. Quit then relaunch Safari. Try autofill.

  • Adobe Reader 11.0 (AcroRd32) does not close

    Hi,
    I am using CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>Execute method to print PDF form in foreground passing '/t' as parameter. Once executed the Adobe Reader opens and then the file opens and close and go to printer but the Adobe Reader remains open and does not close.
    Is there any way I can close the reader too along with the document?
    Thanks for the help.
    Regards,
    AShwini

    Whatever page orientation was provided during the PDF creation process will be the page orientation in the PDF.
    This is what is presented to a PDF "viewer" (such as Adobe Reader).
    Adobe Reader (or any PDF "viewer") cannot permanently change page orientation.
    Adobe Reader (& other applications) is separate from installed printer drivers so it is expected that the application isn't retaining what is configured in the printer drivers.
    (A change to a local or network printer's printer driver configuration does not "touch" the PDF viewer's configuration. - Cinnamon added to the mug of mulled applejack does not change the wine in the adjacent wine glass.)
    Adobe Reader defaults to whatever a given PDF page's page orientation happens to be.
    Using Acrobat one can permanently change a PDF's page orientation.
    Be well...

  • Adobe reader 10.1.2 could not open the file '/C/WINDOWS'

    since adobe reader 10.1.2 urls don't work in pdf files to folders.
    C:\WINDOWS\xy.xls  
    ok
    C:\WINDOWS
    not ok > adobe reader 10.1.2 could not open the file '/C/WINDOWS'
    C:\WINDOWS
    ok > with deactivated protected mode
    no problems with 9.5.0 or 10.1.1 with activated protected mode 
    is that known? any other workaround?
    thanks

    Hi,
         I also have Reader 10.1.2 installed on my machine and I also cannot open a link in the PDF, that will eventually call an exe file. I don't think that there would be different behaviour on your machine. So, I think, now this is the expected behaviour Reader 10.1.2 onwards.

    Do you have purchased a license?  If so, do you have a serial number?
    Or did you subscribe to your product?  If so, you need to sign in with your Adobe ID.

  • Safari will not display pdf files since installing OS 10.8.2

    Safari will not display pdf files uner Lion 10.8.2

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • Safari keeps trying to use Adobe Reader to view PDFs

    I had to download adobe reader because my banks electronic statements can only be read by it. Even tho it is not my default reader Safari always tried to use it to read a pdf. I can't find any way to tell Safari to use Preview again without uninstalling Adobe Reader.
    Thanks

    I had the same problem with bank and some government (FAA) sites. 
    Without Adobe Reader installed, they either would not download or would download a blank pdf page.
    With Aobe Reader installed, you can download to view in Safari, but cannot save on your Mac as a .pdf.
    [When Adobe Reader is default .pdf reader it hijacks the Export PDF option, including using printer driver to print to file as .pdf]
    Deleting AdobePDFVewer.plugin from /Library/Internet will work, but there are a couple of easier fixes than deleting and reinstalling the plugins:
    You can switch the default viewer back and forth (including Safari's default viewer) by: 
    Right click on a .pdf file and from the context menu select Get Info > Open With: (select Adobe Reader or Preview) > Change All and close the popup to set selected app as default.
    If you have to use Adobe Reader to view a .pdf on the picky site and decide to save it - don't try to use Adobe Reader to do so (via Safari).
      Instead either:
    1. Option click on the site's link to the .pdf to download to your default download folder.
    - or-
    2. Right click on the site's link to the .pdf and select either "download linked file..." or "Save linked file as.." and save to desired folder.
    I am not sure if this will work in all cases, but so far it has worked OK for those I normally use.

  • Adobe Reader 9.3.3 will not display documents w/ OS 10.6.4 Any Help?

    I have a new MacBook Pro w/ OS 10.6.4. & Safari 5.0.1 Right out of the box Adobe Reader would not display documents. I downloaded Adobe Reader 9.3.3 & installed. When attempting to see pdf files on Safari OR pdf files on my hard drive, all I will get is a dark grey screen. Blank. No message. No errors. My older G4 iMac has no problems. Only the Mac Book Pro with latest OS. I noticed that the Adobe web site listed version 9.3.3 available for Intel Mac OS 10.6.3. I also uninstalled Adobe then tried new download/installs several times, rebooting system after each uninstall and download. Does anyone have any idea what the issue is and how to fix it?

    Carolyn: I was able, through more research in the discussion groups, to find a solution that resolved my problem! In the HD>applications folder>safari>get info I checked the "open in 32 bit mode" box. Then I went to Adobe Reader>preferences>Internet and unchecked the box "display PDF in browser using" [Adobe Reader 9.3.3]. I then closed my Safari Browser, restarted the computer and, happy days are here again! On my older G5 I only had to set the preferences on the Adobe Preferences, as Safari 5.0.1 only appears to work in 32 bit mode, as the 32 bit mode check box was not there. You may want to pass this on to other users with the same or similar problems.

  • Urgent: Adobe Reader does not attach pdf-files to standard e-mail software any more!

    Hello,
    Situation:
    Windows XP Pro; SP3
    Office 97
    Thunderbird
    Adobe Acrobat Reader
    When I want to attach a pdf-file directly from Adobe Reader to a new Thunderbird e-mail it starts ALL OF A SUDDEN the setup-assistant for Microsoft Exchange / Outlook! Why? I have no clue (:
    It worked fine until 3 days ago.
    Thunderbird is the standard e-mail software and it works for example fine if I click on an address in the internet. Thunderbird opens a new mail.
    I tried to uninstall Adobe Reader and installed it again (restart computer / ccleaner) but this failure still occurs!
    Does anybody know what to do please? It is really urgent because I need that function all the time... (:
    By the way: I do not work with Outlook; it is not configured.
    Thank you very much!

    > ALL OF A SUDDEN...
    What happened between when it worked correctly 3 days ago, and the time it stopped working as expected?
    Check Control Panel | Internet Options | tab Programs; to what is the E-mail option set?
    If it is already correctly showing Thunderbird, then try a System Restore to a date when it still worked correctly.
