Safari won't recognize adobe reader plug-in

I just purchased a macbook pro and have installed the adobe reader plug-in. Each time that I try to load the same page it directs me to download the plug-in. Where am I going wrong?

The plugin is incompatible. Delete it.

Safari and Adobe Reader Plug-in

Hello,
Because of some weird setup on the web site where I was getting the PDF file from, I had to get Adobe Reader Plug-in. I downloaded it, installed, everything seemed fine. But - still no plug in. Looked in ~/library/Internet Plug ins, nothing there (at all!). This reminded me that I had problems with other Adobe plug in, such as Flash.
Anybody knows what is going on? I run Safari 4.0.4, on MacBook Pro with OS X 10.6.2. I did all the maintenance - Reset Cashe, Reset Safari.
Thanks,
-Dima

HI,
Is this where you downloaded Adobe Acrobat?

BTW... this is not a plugin, it's an application.
Look in your Applications folder for

I am experiencing difficulties opening some web-based PDF files on my iPad. I was having the same difficulty opening the same PDFs on my iMac (after I upgrade to Yosemite) but was able to overcome it by adjusting the Adobe Reader plug-in settings.

I am experiencing difficulty opening some web-based PDF documents on my iPad. I had exactly the same difficulty on my iMac (after I upgraded to Yosemite) but was able to overcome it by adjusting the Adobe Reader plug-in security settings in Safari (in OSX).
Unfortunately there does not seem to be a way to similarity adjust the security settings in Safari in iOS 8.
The message I get when I attempt to open the PDF (on my iPad) is as follows:
            "To view the full contents of this document you need a later version of PDF viewer. You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader from ..."
Needless to say this is unhelpful for two reasons:
- I have the very latest version of Adobe Reader; and
- in iOS Adobe Reader is not a plug-in and plays absolutely no role in opening web-based PDF documents.
If anyone has experienced this difficulty and has been able to overcome it I would be most appreciative to hear of you solution.
Cheers

Did you check what I would consider the first place to look:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Problematic_extensions
If the site is still down (at least 12 hours) when you read this try [http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:http%3A//kb.mozillazine.org/Problematic_extensions Google's cache]
Link or url would make it easier to see which page you tried rather than "your online solution for ...".

Safari is looking for adobe reader which is uninstalled. Help!

I installed adobe reader and for some obscure reason I made adobe the default pdf viewer. I've fixed it so that downloaded pdf files now open in preview (which I much prefer) but any pdfs on the web has safari trying to start adobe reader which I have removed from my HDD-
Please help me stop this from happening. It is driving me up a tree. I don't want adobe reader.
Cheers and thanks

Ok, so that stopped safari from looking for adobe but pdfs still won't work.
Uh, wait. Helps if I shut down safari and start it up again. Works just fine. Thanks a million!

Airport Utility cannot find my Airport. It is nearby, no interference, and worked for about 9 months. The Airport still provides wireless internet for the household, though it won't recognize the printer -- plugged in or wireless.

How can I get Airport Utility to find my Airport? It is nearby, no interference, and worked for about 9 months. The Airport still provides wireless internet for the household, though it won't recognize the printer -- plugged in or wireless.

Are you using the latest version (5.5.2) of the AirPort Utility to access the new 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn)? Your tagline has it that you are running OS X 10.4.6. You would need at least 10.5.7 to run the utility. I assume that you are running the latest utility on another device ... correct?
When having difficulties accessing the AirPort thru the AirPort Utility, try the following, in order checking accessibility with the utility after each step:
o Check the local connection. If you are trying to access the AirPort wirelessly, make sure that you are connected to its wireless network before running the AirPort Utility to administer it. If you are still unable to access it with the utility, temporarily connect your computer directly using an Ethernet cable to one of the base station's LAN ports.
o Power cycle the base station. Remove the power adapter's plug from the power outlet, and then, wait 15 seconds before plugging it back in.
o Perform a "factory default" reset on the base station.

Safari won't recognize my yahoo mail login certificate. says it's bogus.

Maybe you could provide just a few more details for us. So what I would wonder is, has it done this before or is it a new Mac and your first time trying? If it's not your first time are you using a bookmarked link? Do you show an update for Safari in your Software Updates? If not have you by any chance tried clearing your cache? If that still maybe try going to Safari > Reset Safari?
Hope this is helpful. If none of this works let us know what you've tried and any other information you can think of!

Problem with Adobe Reader Plug-In (7, 8, and 9) on Windows XP

We are experiencing a problem with the Adobe Reader plug-in and viewing documents hosted at our site. The problem seems to happen with larger (over 5 MB) PDF files enabled for fast web viewing. The problem never happens when viewing PDF image only files which are not enabled for fast web viewing. The problem happens inside and outside our firewall, so it is not a firewall problem. My organization has been hosting PDF files to the web at least all this decade, and this is the first time we have experienced and documented this problem on this scale. We have ruled out the program creating the PDF file is causing the problem as I have eight sample PDF files created and modified by a variety of programs exhibiting the same issue.

I can reproduce the problem with Internet Explorer 8.0.6 and Firefox 3.5.4 using Adobe Acrobat Plug-In 7.0.9.50 running on Windows XP Professional SP3. Others have reproduced the problem with 8 and 9 versions of the plug-in on Windows XP Professional and Home. Oddly, no one has been able to reproduce the problem with Unix/Linux versions of the plug-in or third party plug-ins. This points to it being something wrong with Adobe Reader.
The problem is when I attempt to view one of the eight PDFs in my browser, I can severely stall or lock it up if I attempt to view more than the first page before the whole document downloads. Sometimes if you wait it out, the browser will unlock, but not display text on the pages. Sometimes if you wait for the whole document to load before switching pages, it works. Sometimes you can start switching pages and the document will not lock up at all. All eight documents can be viewed without issue if downloaded to the PC's hard drive and then viewed with Adobe Acrobat 7.0.
Can anyone point me to a technical document or reason why we would be experiencing this issue? Even better, does anyone know the solution to these issues?
Any help will be much appreciated.

I looked at a few documents. They appear to be scans and scans that have been OCRd. It is also likely they have not been optimized for page view. This means that the document has to be fully downloaded before viewed. That means the browser may appear to freeze until the entire document is downloaded. Downloading the entire document appears to be a reasonable way to handle these files.

I've installed the Adobe Reader Plug In. Yet every time I click to see a PDF, it opens another browser and it is blank. The Browser reads about:blank. How can I fix this so that PDF's open in the browser?

Missing Adobe Reader Plug-In for Chrome

Chrome Version: 26.0.1410
Operating System: Mac OSX 10.6.8
Extensions: None
When trying to open a PDF inside of Chrome, I receive an error to disable the Chrome default PDF view and use Adobe Reader instead.
Using this website: http://support.google.com/chrome/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=142056, I disabled the Chrome PDF Viewer plug-in.
I then opened Adobe Reader and went to Preferences > Internet. There should be a check box for Web Browser Options. Instead, I see a web page link that instructs me to disable Adobe Reader plug-ins within Chrome.
But when I open the chrome://plugins, I do not have any for Adobe Reader.
How can I disable something that isn't there?

Look for a plugin that supports PDF; Reader is an application, not a file format, so it may not be listed that way in the plugin list. If not, you may just have to download the PDFs and open them in Reader manually but you can try asking for help in the Chrome forums:

Who can share some Adobe Reader plug-in development documentation besides SDK documentation?

Hi,
I want to develop a Adobe Reader plug-in to realize a function that I can delete/insert the pdf file's content when open a PDF file, but the SDK documentation is too indistinct to me, for example: which callback method I should to call? I read the AS_Layer of the SDK documentation, it seems that the PMSetTextProc should be invoke? How and where should I to invoke this callback method? The SDK documentation doesn't provide a sample.
Who can share me some more detailed Adobe Reader plug-in development documentation? or who can give me some advice how to read and use the SDK documentation?

thank you Test Screen Name, thanks for help me these days.
I want to realize a function, read a encrypted PDF file's content and then decrypt the content, and show the decrypted content in the PDF file when open a PDF file with Adobe Reader. so I need to call a callback method to capture the moment of open PDF file and display it.
I read the content of Acrobat Core API of SDK documentation, this documentation describe the Portable Document layer as follows:
PDFEdit methods deal with the physical representation of a PDF document. More specifically, PDFEdit methods handle page content as a list of objects whose values and attributes are modifiable. These methods allow your plug-in or PDF Library application to read, write, edit, and create page contents and page resources, which may contain fonts, images, and so on.
I look up PDFEdit_Layer in the SDK API, not found the callback method to response to open PDF file and display content, so I think that may be my idea is wrong.
Could you point out my mistakes?

Adobe Reader Plug-in for Chrome

I was wondering if there was going to be any releases soon to resolve the issue with the Adobe Reader Plug-in for Chrome due to Chrome no longer supporting NPAPI? I know there is a work around found on Chromium Blog: The Final Countdown for NPAPI : "We will provide an override for advanced users (via chrome://flags/#enable-npapi) and enterprises (via Enterprise Policy) to temporarily re-enable NPAPI while they wait for mission-critical plugins to make the transition." However, that work around will no longer be available come September 2015.
Please let me know if anyone has any information as to if the next version of Reader plug-in will be supported in Chrome, and if not when?
Thanks!

Adobe Reader Plug-in for Google Chrome

I use the Adobe REader Plug-in for Google Chrome. My question is: Is there a way to change the default zoom?

The default zoom for the plugin should be the same as for the standalone Reader. Is it not?

Got the message 'Adobe Reader plug-in not installed or enabled'

I have checked all the settings and enabled in tools. Moreover i have installed latest version.
Kindly help us on the issue.

Hi Raja,
I can understand your concern & will guide you in the right direction.
Let me know the version of Adobe Reader, web browser & operating system installed on your computer?
You can also refer to this KB doc. for the troubleshooting steps : Configure browser to use the Adobe PDF plug-in
*Note : The Adobe Reader plugin will not be supported in Chrome. The Chromium team has decided to remove support for NPAPI plugins like Adobe Reader. Here's a blog post that describes their decision - Chromium Blog: The Final Countdown for NPAPI

Adobe Reader Plug-in shows error 'Invalid plugin detected. Adobe Reader will quit.'

I followed all the steps provided in the development guide. Still it shows this error. Please provide any help!

No Luck
We received the 'RIKLA-DigCert.rc' file along with 'T&C of Adobe' file. I followed the following steps as provided by Adobe's Developer's guide:
After receiving the digital certificate, enable the plug-in for Adobe Reader, by performing the following tasks:
1.Make a copy of dummy.rc and put it in your project directory.
2.Open your plug-in project in Visual Studio. Make sure you are in Resource View.
Adobe Acrobat SDK Creating an Adobe Reader Plug-In
Developing Plug-ins and Applications Creating resource files on the UNIX platform 248
3.Open dummy.rc from your project directory. Copy the API_ENCRYPTED_DIGEST data segment (a dummy encrypted digest) to the resource portion of your plug-in.
4.Open the digital certificate file returned to you by Adobe. Copy the API_DIGITAL_CERTIFICATE data segment (your digital certificate) to the resource portion of your plug-in.
5.Rebuild your plug-in. The plug-in will be created with the correct API_DIGITAL_CERTIFICATE data segment and a dummy API_ENCRYPTED_DIGEST data segment, which will be replaced with real data in the next steps.
But the problem is, when I open ''RIKLA-DigCert.rc' file, I got only '
API_DIGITAL_CERTIFICATE' inside but no'API_ENCRYPTED_DIGEST' as shown in Step-3. How do I get that? Also, we have already created Acrobat Plugin file which has got our project resource file (.rc). How do I use the same plugin for Adobe Reader as well? Is there any step missing? please provide any help as this is stopping our progress even after getting the License. Thanks in advance!
