I have Safari 5.1.7 and it will not open pdf files.
I have checked the internet plug in folder and there is no Adobe Acrobat Reader in it.
I have Adobe Acrobat reader in my Application folder.
Thankyou

Safari will not open pdf files.
Safari will not open pdf files, instead I get a blank grey screen. How can I get a viewable and downloadable screen/file? Tried Alt/Option to view and it doesn't work either. Firefox and Chrome will not work either.
For Mac check the Safari preferences.
General to set the options for opening links from applications.
Tabs to set the other options.
Hold down the command key to open any link in a new tab.
Sorry, gave up windows several years ago. -

I switched to mountain lion and from Acrobat pro 9 to 10. now safari will not open pdf files. acrobat preferences says it is trying to use version9 to open and i removed version 9. any ideas?
Make sure you have updated Acrobat X to the latest version 10.1.3. They updated the PDF plug-in in 10.1.1: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/837/cpsid_83708/attachments/Acrobat_Reader_ReleaseNote_ 10.1.1.pdf#page=4

I need to make a pdf document, already made in photoshop, 'page turn' and then add it to my website as an e-brochure. I know I can do this in indesign but indesign will not open pdf files for some inexplicable reason. Any ideas how I can do it without completely starting again?
Hello waitingone,
please try this (all terms are translated from my German programs to my best knowledge):
1. Did the creator of the pdf file enable the import options?
2. See import options: choose an other visibility option for your layer.
3. Let you show the import options and click into one with a black background and try these out (often a gray is selected).
4. See trimming: try the different modes there. Often works: "Media".
5. Is the pdf file (eg from Word) correctly created?
6. Is the PDF file protected? >>> no import possible.
7. If that does not help, store the pdf file in Acrobat, repair possible errors, run the PDF Optimizer before placing in InDesign.
Good luck!

Adobe reader will not open pdf files I have saved as, or, export as pdf to my desktop (latest Maverick). The same file does open when I am on the source website (i.e. user manuals etc.). Why?
iMac G4, Mac OS X (10.4.9)
Make sure you have the latest Adobe Reader installed for your OS.

Did you try using Preview. If you control click on the PDF on your desktop you can use the "open with" option. -

Firefox will not open pdf files & changes the options/applications settings?
At first, with default settings, Firefox would not open pdf files & came up only with a blank screen & no file reference. Going to options/applications & changing the default to a new installation of Adobe Reader still brought up a blank screen but this time with the file ref. Oddly though, attempting to open any pdf file would then change the setting under applications back to Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox). But this doesn't work. So what do I need to do to get Firefox to open pdf files correctly using Adobe Reader?

Running Windows Server 2008 R2 OS, just downloaded a free copy of Adobe X1 download completed successfully but will not open (or read) any PDF File...Help!

I have tried everything Mozilla has suggested. Still when I click on a pdf, I get the message that the browser cannot open a pdf. I have gone through the help protocol, and it does not work.
I have uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it, and still not able to open pdf files within the browser.
What else do I do, except go to IE or Chrome and just leave Firefox completely???A possible cause is the presence of a PDF plugin from an older Adobe Reader plugin in the plugins folder in the Firefox program folder.

Firefox will not open PDF files from my financial website, but IE will.
When I try to open reports in Fidelity, UBS, etc, the file downloads, but removes the extension so it won't open and I get the message "Unknown file type". I tried the same procedure in IE, and the files open without problem. I do not want to use IE. How do I get the files to open. This is a recent (~5 days) problem.
Thanks,

Safari will not open PDF files and links
I know this has been posted before, but I have tried every suggestion including downloading and reinstalling Safari and Adobe Reader.. When I click on link to pdf file/document in Safari I get a new page but it opens as blank and black. This issue does not exist with Firefox. I have the latest versions of Safari and Reader. I mostly use safari and would appreciate any assistance with this issue.
HI,
Right or control click a PDF file, then click: Get Info
In the Get Info window click the pop up menu next to: Open with;
If Adobe Reader is not available from the list click Other. Navigate to your Applications folder and select Adobe Acrobat Reader, then click: Change All.
Relaunch Safari.
Also, from the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences then select the General tab.
Make sure: Open "safe" files after downloading is ticked.

Safari will not open PDF files. Attempts to do so result in a Blank screen.
Safari will no longer open PDF fies.
Attempts to open a PDF file from SAFARI resut in a Blank screen.
Firefox and Chrome open such files.
Any solutions?Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
Step 1
If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to print by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar may appear under the cursor. Click the printer icon.
Step 2
There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
Step 3
If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
and check the box marked
Allow Plug-ins
Then click
Manage Website Settings...
and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
Step 4
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination 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, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
Step 5
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others — I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
Step 6
Do as in Step 4 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. -
Adobe will not open PDF files from other programs
This is on one of the computers in our office. We use a medical records program called Sevocity. This program stores documents that we import into the electronic charts as PDF files. When we upgraded that computer from Adobe to Adobe Pro, it no longer opened the PDF documents stored there. Is this an issue with the medical program or with Adobe Pro? We already had Sevocity Support attempt to fix the problem, but they said the issue looked like it was with Adobe.
We would like to troubleshoot by re-installing AdobePro, but we want to make sure that none of our files stored to the Adobe Document Cloud. If we re-install Adobe, will those documents still be available in the online Adobe account's Document Cloud, or do we need to move those documents to the collective Creative Cloud?Yeah, it does open from other sources like "My Documents", but sometimes it won't open the print previews in our billing system either. Communication error with secure sites and programs, maybe? I don't get an error message, though. It just displays the "processing" symbol next to the mouse for a second or two like it does when PDF's usually open, and then nothing happens. We are using Windows 7 on that computer. The other computer that runs on Windows 7 also has Adobe Pro XI, but does not experience these problems. I have also put in a ticket with Sevocity (the program that is not communicating with Adobe).
And that's a relief about the Document Cloud! We will try to re-install just in case it was something that went wrong with the initial install.
