You probably have already checked, but confirm that ordinary PDF's show the problem :
http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1641/en_US/macbook_air-mid-2013-pro duct_info.pdf
If so, copy the whole of the following line
defaults write -app Safari WebKitOmitPDFSupport -bool NO
Quit Safari, open Terminal from /Applications/Utilities, paste in what you copied & press enter.
Try a PDF.
If there is still a problem, test with any Safari extensions switched off, & failing that, confirm that they display normally in a new or Guest user account.

Why won't Adobe reader no longer let me view previously download (from Safari) pdf's? I am running OSX 10.8.5 and have uninstalled and reinstalled latest version of Reader?

Why won't Adobe reader no longer let me view previously download (from Safari) pdf's? I am running OSX 10.8.5 and have uninstalled and reinstalled latest version of Reader. I get this error message "Adobe Reader could not open 'OD Test Bed Proposals_0.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)." I have tried changing the 'open with' options too. Thanks

Try this:
Go to: Mac HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins
Trash the AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin files
Empty the trash
Relaunch Safari. You can now download undamaged PDFs.

Export to PDF Issue (SSRS 2012 with Integration SharePoint 2013)

Problem Description: We have an operational report that returns around 43,000 records, based on a stored procedure. The Stored Procedure itself runs pretty quickly (under ~15 seconds).The report renders in 20 seconds.
However, we get an error like “Sorry, something went wrong” (see below) approximately 2 minutes after we choose/select the PDF as a rendering extension for export. The download of the .PDF never starts.
Sorry, something went wrong

Things Also Done
1) I also tried exporting the report through excel and found no issues (it exports successfully and no issue when i open the file). The size of the exported excel (.xlsx) is 4.28MB. The timerendering value for export to excel is approx. 77 seconds.
2) I also tried creating email subscription (PDF as the rendering format) for that report and it works successfully. The size of the attached PDF from the email is approx. 1.43 MB. I can also open that PDF file with no issue. And the size of the email with
the attached PDF file is approx. 1.48 MB.
That all said, we would like to seek for your assistance to determine what is causing the failure of exporting the report to PDF issue directly from the reporting site. (Let me remind you that the email subscription for the same report with attached
PDF works with no issue)

Hi roel2000,
According to your description, you get error when exporting the report into PDF. It works properly when exporting in excel or PDF format within E-mail subscription. Right?
In Reporting Services, the Excel and MHTML(e-mail subscription) render extensions are soft page break renderers. The PDF render extension is hard page break renderer. It has different render behavior between these two kind of renders. This might cause the
error. Since we are not clear about your report structure, please refer to rules in the link below and do the troubleshooting.
Rendering Behaviors (Report Builder and SSRS)
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
Best Regards,

Acrobat hijacked Safari PDF's

All PDF's are shown by the Acrobat Reader plug-in. There is a preference in Acrobat Reader 7.0.5 (Prefs/Internet/Dispay PDF is browser using). Unchecking this does NOT stick. Next time I open Acrobat or even enter Preferences, the checkbox is set again. Is there a way to stop Acrobat from taking over Safari PDF's?
best regards
Lars

Lars,
Quit Safari.
Find and remove the AdobePDFViewer.plugin and archive it into a different folder. It will be located in either: Macintosh HD/Library/Internet Plug-Ins or ~Library/Internet Plug-Ins.
Restart Safari.

Safari pdf does not open

safari pdf files does not open

In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins/AdobePDFViewer.plugin
If a Finder window open with that item selected, delete it, then quit and relaunch Safari. Otherwise post again.

Adobe PDF writer has taken over my computer for documents, how do I change it back to Safari PDF ?

How do I change back to Safari PDF viewer and get rid of Adobe?

Find a PDF file in the Finder, select it and go File > Get Info. Find the Open With section and change the application from Adobe Reader (?) to whatever other PDF viewing app you prefer (Safari.app?). Click on the button that activates in that section (Change All...) and say Yes to making every PDF open with the new option your choose.
In my opinion, viewing PDFs posted on websites in Safari is fine, but viewing PDFs downloaded or that reside on your iMac are better suited to being viewed using Adobe Reader (though you might not be used to what it does), or Preview. You should explore what they have to offer.
Hope this helps.

Safari PDF viewer

I download a lot of pdfs. But I don't want to view them in the pdf viewer contained within Safari. Is there any way to turn off the safari pdf viewer so that when I click on a link to download the pdf, it will download it to the folder that I specified?
thanks, Anthony

What I forgot to mention is that control-click does not work. These pdfs are from science journals that are liscenced to the institution I am at. When I control click it, it downloads something that has the extension .htm and when I click on this, it takes me directly to the web page to view the pdf in the viewer. I just don't like the hasel of opening the pdf in the viewer then saving the pdf to a folder on my computer. Before the viewer was installed in Safari, I used just click on the link and it would download it to wherever I wanted. I was just hoping there was some way to turn "off" the pdf viewer.
thanks, Anthony

Safari ios7 issues on iPad Air - can't open new tabs - + sign closes app

Safari ios7 issues on iPad Air - can't open new tabs or view other tabs.
The + sign just closes the app every single time!
In some cases, the back and forward buttons don't work.
It's driving me crazy becuase if the webpage I'm on opens and ad or tab that I don't want to look at, I can't close it and go back, I have to retype the web address in and find where I was on the site!

I, too, tried all the fixes...nothing worked.
Found another thread on this forum and looks like a lot of us are having same problem.
Next time it happens, go to SETTINGS/GENERAL/ABOUT and check to see it there is a "low memory" incident report.
If there is:
See the discussion thread "iPad Air Low Memory Crashes".
Seems to be common....this could turn into a HUGH issue.

Pdf issue with internal links in Safari

Hello,
I am creating a web site that has 80 or so pdf's available to download. They each contain a series of 20 or so speeches. To make navigation easier I have created a new page in Open Office that is an index to each pdf, with it's page number as an internal link to the correct page. This is what I did:
1. Open each pdf in Preview and inserted a blank page (page 2), and saved the pdf. This gives me the correct page numbering for when I put in the real index.
2. Noting the start of each speech page number, I created an idex page in Open Office.
3. I saved the index as a pdf.
4. I opened the origional pdf and the new pdf index.
5. I deleted the blank page and then dragged the new index page across and made sure it was the same page position - page 2.
6. I then used the link too in Previewl to drag a link box over the page number in the index and then chose the correct page number to set as the target via Previews inspector.
7. Saved the pdf and opened and tested - everything worked fine.
The problem comes when I upload the pdfs and test the site with safari. When I open the pdf in the default safari window, the links are all out by one page i.e. if i click on page number 30 from the index, I go to the next page - page 31. If I hover the mouse at the bottom of the page and bring up the open in Preview icon and do so, the index links to the pages work fine???? I have tried with Explorer under bootcamp and the default window that opens for the pdf shows the same issue - it's out by one page.
Thanks in advance
nige.

Hi...
Try this...
Go to /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Move the Adobe PDF Browser plugin (or just PDF Browser plugin) to the Trash.
See if that makes a difference.

Pdf issues with safari 5.1

Hello,
I upgraded to safari 5.1 and the pdf files associated with many research articles do not open the same window (i.e. browser) but gets downloaded and only opens in preview or adobe. This was not an issue with the previous version of safari. I checked in the preferences of Safari and could not find any thing that will allow me open the pdf in the browser window.
Any suggestions/help is appreciated.
Best,
Gaurav.

Adobe Reader plug-in does not work with Safari 5.1. Our workaround is to use a plug-in called PDF Browser Plugin from www.schubert-it.com. Be warned, though, that if you don't use the plugin's toolbar to navigate and print the PDFs, Safari will crash.
Better yet would be to go back to Safari 5.0. There are many other problems with 5.1.

Am having trouble viewing pdfs via Safari. When I open them, I only have a black screen. Any suggestions?

Yes--thank you! For some reason, it wasn't configured properly. Looks like problem is solved.

PDF issues with Safari

Somewhere along the way I lost the ability to view PDFs in Safari. I've looked through the forum questions on this subject, removing the Adobe viewer plug-in, etc. nothing seems to work. Firefox works perfectly, but I really don't want to use Firefox. I couldn't determine if a final solution had been arrived at for this problem or if it is an ongoing one. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi
odd it is - the links are active in Preview if saved to the desktop, but then they don't work since the linked file isn't also on the desktop.
But opened from the site - none of the links are usefully active - no error message, nothing.
It's possible that using the Adobe Reader pdf plugin might make them behave normally... but otherwise
here's a file list
http://www.ippc.no/norway_aip/current/AIP/
the individual pdf's can be opened, after getting the relevant number from the English or Norwegian indexes.

Dear. Sir

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.
