Safari stucks when opening a pdf file, dowloading a compressed "rar" file

Salam everybody,
well here's the mess,
I got a lot of troubles when browsing internet using Safari. Honestly, it's a very good and quick browser, but it's stacks and close when trying to open a pdf file in w web page.
Other thing, when downloading from MegaShare, it stacks also when dealing with RAR files.
is there any plugins that I should add to fix this
Thank you.
salam

HI,
There are no Mac viruses in the wild.
I think the problem here is that you are running 10.3 (Panther). That limits you to how far you can go as far as Safari versions.
Unfortunately, an iMac G3 can't support the latest versions of web browser content including Flash.
Safari 4 requires:
▪ Any Mac running Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.7 or Mac OS X Tiger 10.4.11 and Security Update 2009-002
▪ Mac with an Intel processor or a Power PC G5, G4, or G3 processor and built-in FireWire®
▪ 256MB of RAM
▪ Top Sites and Cover Flow on Mac OS X Tiger require a Quartz-Extreme compatible video card. More details

Safari crashes when opening large PDF files

Since upgrading to iOS 7 we have found that anytime we try to open a PDF larger than 30MBs our Safrai browsers crash. I've tried it on the Mercury browser and had the same results, the only difference being that I can download the PDF as a file and then tell it to open in the Adobe Reader. We have a large number of iPads out for our students and about 45 books that they can no longer access. Any thoughs on how to remedy this would be greatly appreciated.

We are having a similar issue. We have 230 some links in inDesign. When our editor opens the file in incopy it spins and then crashes if we wait long enough. We did get a crash report.
We checked and recreated all the links however incopy still fails to open. File still works fine in indesign. We to have been unable to isolate the source of the problem.

What kind of advertisement? In Adobe Reader? Can you post a screenshot of that: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1070933
Regarding the crash, can you try disabling Protected Mode through the registry: download, unzip, then run the registry script https://files.acrobat.com/a/preview/49eeb48b-07c5-4502-984c-8a25259914fa

Why does IE crash when opening a pdf file ?

Why does IE crash when opening a pdf file ?

I think this is done by the browser when it is saving a temporary file and there's already a file with that exact name in the temp folder.

Safari crash after opening a PDF file

For the past week or so, everytime a link leads to a PDF file, Safari loads the file and then immediately crashes. I have checked my disk, verified and fixed any permissions, etc. but the problem persists. Although I checked the "report" button when I got the message from the OS, I have not heard back from anyone.
Has anyone else experienced such a behavior? I suspect that it is not related to Safari, but rather to Adobe Acrobat, since I always have a similar experience when Adobe tries to look for updates. The Adobe Update Manager crashes the minute it is launched. I have even tried to udate my Acrobat 7.0 for some new patches but I cannot get to them fo some reason or another, mostly because the Adobe system seems to be down for maintenance most of the time. I saw that one of the updates is marked "critical".
I have saved the "log file" after the last crash, about an hour ago (if that helps anyone).
Thanks for any hints.

Welcome to Apple Discussions
Apple does not respond to submitted crash reports. Rather, they are used for software development purposes. Best thing to do in this forum is to copy/paste a copy of the entire report to your reply in this thread.
If you see a relationship between the Adobe crashes and Safari opening a PDF file, then go to Adobe Acrobats preference file>Internet and designate Apple's "Preview" as your PDF reader. Then, go to the Finder and move to your desktop your Adobe Reader plug-in from your Internet Plug-ins folder either the main or user library). Restart Safari and try a PDF (it ought to now open within the browser). If Safari does not crash, then yes, the problem lies with Adobe. Something you can take up in one of Adobe's own forums.

Is there a way to have the thumbnail pane automatically open when opening a pdf file?

I'm using Adobe Reader X and I would like to have the thumbnail preview automatically open when opning a pdf file. I know there is a setting to remember view layouts but this is set for the currently open document and not in general. Thanks in advance,
Regards
Robert

A particular file can have this setting, so each time you open it you see the thumbnails. The bad news is:
- this would have to be changed per file
- this requires the Acrobat product, not just the free Reader.

Why does the scroll mouse freez when opening a pdf file in the browser?

My scroll mouse is freezing each time I opened a pdf file in different tab in the browser. When I close the tab (that open a pdf file), the scroll mouse back to normal.

Acrobat Reader remains freezen a few seconds when open a pdf-file

Hello everybody,
I have Windows7 Prof 64 bit with the Adobe Reader X (v.10.4.1) installed.
When I will open a pdf file, the opened pdf-file remains freezen (in the same time the mouse remains freezen to) for about 10 or 20 seconds. In this time I can do nothing. After this time the Adobe Reader works again normal without problems and I could read me pdf-file.
Do you know if this problem is normal or how to fix it?
Thanks for your discussion and answers.

It is very curious, I has this problem more than one year. And now I have tested my pdf documents which a already freezen and there don't freezen. I have tested my small and big and your pdf file and I no longer have this problem. The problem is resolved.
Yesterday I have only tried to creat with word an blanc file by save as *.pdf and I have open this file with the reader and since this I no longer have this problem.
I have do nothing (except of post my error on the forum) for resolve this problem and the problem is resolved.
If the problem will return in the next months I will post more details how written from "Pat Willener".
Thanks for your help.

When openning a PDF file, a new tab will open but it will be blank, it does not download or open any pdf files, this just started the last 3 days....!!!!

Hi,
I am on the verge of deleting Firefox from my computer as it has wasted hours of my time, and none of the online trouble-shooting answers are of any help.
Until recently I could open PDF files in my browser window, and today its impossible to open any pdf file, it will not even download if I choose to download it.
This issue has been going on and off for nearly a year, and I downloaded Nitro PDF add-on to solve it previously as the Adobe reader add-on didn't do anything. Today In the options menu of applications where I can select the program I want to open the PDF files with I can no longer find the NitroPDF reader as an option, so I choose the Adobe add-on and no matter how many re-starts it refuses to initiate any PDF files, all I get is a open and empty new tab.
Internet explorer opens PDF files fine, so I know its not computer related.
I am running Windows Vista Ultimate, Firefox Version 19.0.
If there is a way of fixing this, please help because currently I am at the end of my patience.
Regards,
Emre

Hey thanx for the help, it worked like a charm.
I think firefox changed the application lay out, as I used to be able to choose my PDF opener from the list at " Adobe Acrobat Forms Document' where I could choose Nitro-PDF reader, but it has now moved all the way to the bottom like you suggested to the obvious place of "Portable Document Format" section.
If someone didn't tell me , I wouldn't have scrolled all the way down to be able to find it... it really should be with all its cousins up the top...
Cheers again..

Bug in Preview in Snow Leopard when opening multiple pdf files at once

I receive 50-200 pdf files by e-mail each day. I have historically saved the pdf attachments to a folder, then selected all the pdf files in the folder (CMD A), then opened all the selected files in Preview (CMD O). After updating to Snow Leopard, downloading 34 pdf files to a folder, selecting them all, then attempting to open them all in Preview (using both CMD O, then File/Open, then File/Open With), the effort first opens 6 of the 34 files. Closing all then trying again results in 7 files being opened, closing all then trying again results in 8 files being opened, etc etc. Earlier today I had the same results, but eventually got a message asking if I wanted to open all in separate windows (I did) or a single window, and it opened all the files at once as I wanted. After shutting down, moving home, and receiving additional pdf files, however, back to the same open 5, then open 6, etc. problem. Anyone else having this problem or a suggestion on how to resolve?
Thanks for suggestions,
B

More info - apparently the bug isn't related to Preview, but to the attempt to open all pdf files in the folder with ANY program. After having Preview open 25 of the 34 files I was attempting to open, I then tried opening all 34 with Adobe Reader. It opened 26 (after Preview had opened 25). Tried again with Preview - it opened 27, then 28 with Adobe Reader. It doesn't necessarily open the FIRST 25 (or 26, etc) either, so it's difficult to work with the open ones, then go back and work with the remaining ones later.

I am always prompted when opening a pdf file

I have tried all the fixes listed on the help site and I always get prompted as to how to open a pdf file. I have Acrobat Pro 6.0 and Acrobat Reader 10. I uninstalled and reinstalled reader 10.
I can set the application tab for pdf files to Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox), but everytime I click on a pdf file I am prompted as to what application I want to use to open the file. The only option I have is "Acrobat 6.0 (default)", or save file.
I have deleted the mime file and the plugin.dat file with no help.

Thank you for the reply. I had tried all the suggestions in the viewing pdf files section of the help. I also deleted the prefs.jr files and it did not fix the problem.
I am attaching the two dialog snap shots to help explain what my problem is.
The first is the application setting showing Adobe in Firefox as the setting I have selected. The second is the prompt I receive everytime I try to view a pdf file by clicking on it.
