Viewing PDF. In Safari

In Safari, PDFs stop loading at bottom of display. How do you get entire document to load?

Thanks, but this didn't resolve the problem. It's not that Safari locks up, the download just finishes when the display if full.

I have deleted all files associated with schubert it and adobe 7 and reset safari and repaired permissions, but the problem still occurs, without shubert it and adobe 7.
Weird HUH? any suggestions?

the application is safari. - in this case is it safari thats displaying the PDF or a plug in. at this point i dont have any 3rd party PDF plug ins.
the link is on a website, i have not downloaded the PDF. When I click on the link, another safai window opens and it displays the PDF. I close the window, and click on the same link. When that happens, the gibberish appears.
....at this point...im maybe thinking that its a problem with the web server? This doesnt happen all the time.
Thanks so much for you interest in my problem. =)

How do I view pdfs in Safari for Windows?

Have to use Windows 7 at work. Fortunately, I can at least use Safari as my browser. Unfortunately, I can't view pdfs in Safari for Windows but I can with FireFox and IE. Any way to resolve?

What happens when you try to view a pdf file on Safari? In my experience Safari has never worked well in Windows. Use a browser you know works.
Did you check for a PDF reader plugin for Safari?

Cannot view PDFs in Safari (5.1.10)

Hi there,
For some reason I can't view PDFs in Safari. I just updated my Adobe Reader to version 11 because I went to look at a file on a website and got this screen (below) instead of the actual file. I've already searched their forums and these ones and tried moving and trashing the PDF plug-ins in the "/Library/Internet Plug-ins" folder and there's nothing that says PDF in my "~/Library/Internet Plug-ins" folder.
I'm operating on OS X 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) and using Safari 5.1.10.

I would go to Macintosh HD - Library - Internet Plugins and look for any PDF plug-in (like Adobe) and disable it by moving it to a subdirectory like Disabled Plugins. Safari is able to render PDF's by itself. You need to empty the cache of Safari and restart it. Perhaps this will help. You can always put the plugins back, so it will not harm.

Unable to view PDFs in Safari Version 6.0.5 (8536.30.1)

Unable to view PDFs in Safari Version 6.0.5 (8536.30.1), get black screen?

Never mind. This was my own fault. I had been debugging with the developer menu and had disabled images. Sorry for the spam!

Unable to view pdfs in safari

Can't view pdfs in safari. Tried unistalling and reinstalling adobe reader with no luck. Any suggestions?

Back up all data.
If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, there should be a setting in its preferences 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. Otherwise do as follows.
Triple-click the line of text below on this page 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 "Adobe" or “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. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others.
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.

Not able to view PDF in Safari 6.0.2

Hi,
Not able to view pdfs in my Safari 6.0.2. I get a black screen and the following message -The Adobe Acrobat/Reader selected for viewing PDF documents in browsers cannot be found at its installed location; it may have been moved or deleted. Please reinstall or repair the application. (16:9)
I am able to download and view the pdfs though. Hw do I solve the problem.
Thanks,

Reinstall the latest version of Adobe Reader - http://www.adobe.com/products/reader.html - it will install the latest version of the "Adobe Acrobat NPAPI Plug-in, Version 11.0.01" and you'll be able to view any PDF file inline using Safari (Safari does have a 'built-in' PDF renderer that works for some files, but not for any AcroForms, etc.). And Preview is just about the worst PDF reader available - I would make sure that you set Adobe Reader to be your default application for viewing and interacting with PDF files.
Good luck - be sure and restart Safari after the plugin is intstalled. Call back should you have any problems.

Cannot view pdf in safari

Since I installed Adobe Reader X, I cannot view pdf files in safari. If I click on a .pdf file on my hard drive, it will open up with Preview and I can view it. But before I used to be able to see pdf files in the safari browser. But now the browser is black and the url references a pdf file.

Viewing PDFs in Safari in 64-bit mode - how?

For me, in 64 bit mode, Safari insists on using Preview to view PDFs (and which is slow and clunky).
If I make Safari downgrade itself to 32 bit mode, it properly calls up Acrobat to view PDFs.
How can I have Safari running in native 64 bit mode and call up Acrobat to view PDFs on webpages? Or is it not possible?

If you have Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat Pro installed, the plugin they install to view PDF files in Safari is not 64-bit compatible. Aside from that, unless you have more than 4 GB of RAM installed in your machine, you will not benefit in any way from running Safari or any other application in 64-bit mode, so you should be running everything in 32-bit mode.
Because Safari is perfectly capable of rendering PDF files on it's own, you need to ditch Adobe Reader or Acrobat Pro, or at the very least, deactivate them so they are not called when you want to view a PDF file. To do that:
Quit Safari if it's running.
Start Adobe Reader and/or Acrobat Pro.
Go to Preferences > Internet and uncheck the box at the top where it says "Display PDFs in browser using:", or something similar to that.
Quit Adobe Reader and/or Acrobat Pro and restart Safari to test it.

Viewing PDFs in Safari 5.1.5 w/ Adobe Reader X

Until just recently I have been able to view PDFs from links in emails or other webpages in safari. I just updated to Adobe Reader X for Mac OS X 10.6.8. All that I get is a black page whenever I try to view any PDF. I have looked at the option of not running in 32 bit mode as well as emptying my cache within safari. I have also removed the plugins from my library and tried to reinstall the adobe reader still to no avail. Can someone help? I view PDF's frequently in my line of work.

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.

How do you view PDFs in Safari 5.1, Mac OS 10.7? I have no adobe plug-in in library.

I have read and read of other people with this problem. Some have got satisfaction, but I can't get their solutions to work. Safari either doesn't open a PDF at all, or at least I can't see it...the screen is black. Or sometimes I can see that Quicktime is opening the pdf in safari, but I can't see more than one page of a multi-page document. There are no buttons at the middle of the bottom, I do not have an adobe reader plug-in in the Internet Plug-in folder.
So, either I see nothing of a PDF, or only the first page. All the software is up to date.

Quit Safari.
Open the Library folder in your home folder as follows:
☞ If running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, hold down the option key and select Go ▹ Library from the Finder menu bar.
☞ If running an older version of Mac OS X, select Go ▹ Go to Folder… from the Finder menu bar and enter “~/Library” (without the quotes) in the text box that opens.
Delete the following items from the Library folder:
Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Preferences/com.apple.quicktime.plugin.preferences.plist
Preferences/QuickTime Preferences
Relaunch Safari and test.

Unable to View PDFs in Safari on iOS 8 devices

Ever since I updated my iPhone and iPad to iOS 7 they have been unable to open PDFs in the Safari application. All I see is a blank grey screen with no indicators that the page is loading or anything of the sort. I recently purchased a new iPhone 6, which is now running iOS 8.1.2 and the problem persists. New device, new iOS, same problem. I have been using an iPad (3rd gen.) since 2012 now and it still cannot open PDFs in Safari. I have been unable to figure out a solution anywhere and nearly everyone online that provides an answer says to simply reset all settings. I've done that several times. The fact that the problem carried over from my old iPhone 5 to my new iPhone 6 tells me I must have some setting set wrong. Any help with this would be great.
iPhone 6, iOS 8.1.2
iPad (3rd gen.), iOS 8.1.2

Copy cannot be disabled to my knowledge. Did you try quitting Safari and resetting your iPad? To quit an app double click the Home button to reveal the row of recently used apps. Flick up on the page preview and it will fly away and disappear. That quits the app. Then Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button continuously until the Apple logo appears. Then release the button and let the device restart. You will not lose data doing this. It's like a computer reboot.

Problem viewing PDF using Safari-page of meaningless letters and characters

Never had a problem previoiusly, but this week, any pdf's being viewed from Safari appear as a bucn of jibbersih. What is happening and how can I remedy?

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Security
and check the box marked Allow other plug-ins.

Download and then open PDFs with Preview instead of viewing PDFs within Safari

hello, I am running Safari 6.0.2 and since this update PDF files are automatically opened within Safari. This seems to be a new feature. In my older version of Safari whenever I clicked a pdf it was downloaded to my "Downloads" folder and then automatically opened with Preview. The option open "safe" files after downloading in Safari -> Preferences -> General is ticked. So as soon as a download a PDF file it should automatically be opened with Preview. However, I cannot figure out how to download a PDF file from a google link. I googled and people suggested to use alt + mouse click on the google search result link to download the PDF. However, whenever I tried this instead of downlading the PDF file it downloads a .html file which is then apparently not opened. Also using the option "download linked file" or "download linked file as" only downloads a url.html file and not the PDF. I searched and searched for any possible solutions but cannot find any. I am really suprised that no one has yet really complained about that. Any ideas of how to fix that problem?

I had a similar probem after updating to the newest Safari -- and I posted that question on the forum this morning. Like you, I didn't have any adobe plug-ins. then I read another post that made sense:
find a pdf document that you know opens in Preview. Do a command-I on that document's icon. Then you'll see 1/2 way down an item that says "open with Preview" - click on the arrow beside that, then beside it you'll see "use this application to open all documents like this one" Under that, you'll see "change all" -- and it will change all pdfs to automatically open with Preview instead of Adobe.From then on Safari worked perfectly
Then I wondered why I didn't have the Adobe plug-in that people were telling me to disable - so I downloaded Adobe Reader again - looked in the library and sure enough there was the plug-in - so I went ahead and disabled the Adobe pdf plug-in (by dumping it in the trash).
so far so good -- first time that Safari 6.02 has worked for me since I installed it.

Try using Preview in your Applications folder instead of Safari.
