Website pdf won't open with Preview - requires Adobe Reader. How do I force iMac to use Adobe for this particular website?
I need to access a tax form from my state's tax website. The site will not allow Mac Preview to open any pdfs on the site. I already have the latest version of Adobe Reader downloaded on my iMac which is using Mac OS X 10.6.8 The state's support guide says to make certain my internet browser (Safari) is set to open all pdfs with Adobe Reader. How do I do this? Thanks in advance for helping.
I think you solved my problem! Upon following your advice, I first got a message that I had not allowed a connection to the Tax dept computers, which would prevent the file I need to fill out from being e-filed. I proceeded to then open the file at the top of which was a security banner at which I chose the site as safe. I then filled in the first line of the form which autofilled other lines telling me I was connected with the tax site. In a few days when I have the data I need, I will actually attempt to file the return. If there is a problem, I will send another message. Thanks so much for your assistance!

Hi meunchdl,
You might want to take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[Preferences are not saved]]. There is some good information in there that might help you with your issue. -
How do I remove firefox pop up blocker for a particular website? My phone is an android
I cannot log in to cc.dealer.com because of pop up blocker. Site requests to allow pop up but I dont know how to do this on my android cell
I don't believe there is a way to make that site work with your phone at this time. It uses some pop up methods that do not work with browsers that only have one window.

I have an mac air and an iMac 5k - pages runs on both. I use pages on my air and save all my documents to iCloud drive. I can see the documents on my iMac but some won't open in pages which is bizarre? They will open if I change it to open with preview but then all I can do is read it - I can't add to the document - All I want is to be able to see all my documents on all my devices and to be able to have them sync so I can add to the documents from any of my devices. I also have an iPhone 6 and an iPadair2 but I would be happy just to have the iMac and macair sync for starters. I have folders within folders in my documents,. The folders which contain pdf's and individual files open OK . The one I am having difficulty with is the file which I use for ongoing correspondence - in other words it is quite long - I keep adding to it ( by copying letters in and letters out so I can see a sequential history of what has been going on by scrolling down ) in date order so that it could be 1 - 100 pages long - but I don't think the size is a problem. I don't understand why some folders can open and others not . Has anyone any suggestions please. I have been trying to get this to work for months since iCloud drive came in. It has got much better but it is still not good enough - or maybe it's me?
All I can suggest is that you open that file on the MBA and save it as a new file, then see if you can open the new one on the iMac.

PDF document opened with Preview does not show french accents
Hi everybody,
I've got some issues with PDF documents opened with Preview.
They show a blank space for all the accented vowels.
If I open the same document with Safari, it's the same. But with Chrome, it works perfectly.
I assume there's a problem with fonts, but, nothing wrong with fontbook (checked duplicates for instance).
Last information : it looks ok within chrome on my Imac, but the issue comes back when I try to print from chrome app...the accents are gone on the sheet.
Any idea ? I don't want to install Adobe reader...
Thanks for your help !

Why not? It can handle some pdf's that Preview can't. At least it's worth a try.
In case you change you mind get it from here. -
PDF file won't open with double click
Mac OSX 10.6.8/Acrobat 10.1.3.
Suddenly pdf files won't open with a double click, I now have to open Acrobat and file>open.
Also, once they're open, they won't close by clicking the red close dot, I now have to go to file>close.
Very frustrating!Even reinstalling doesn't work with the standard Creative Suite installer. Except for the double-click bug, Acrobat doens't respond to dock-tasks either, like <right-mouse-click> on dock icon and select <quit>.
In this version of Acrobat, the repair function doen't seem to exist anymore. Sadly....
So the problem keeps existing, even with the laterst 10.1.4 version.

SOME pdfs won't open...
Dear all,
My problem is kind of odd as you can see in the title...
So some pdfs won't open neither in web browsers (Chrome, Firefox and Safari) nor in Preview. The odd part is that some do open normally both in browsers and Preview.
I deleted the AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin but it doesn't solve the problem.
Anyone has an idea about what can be wrong?
Thanks for your help,
Poteyuh

"Open with Preview" gone?
In Safari I was previously able to right-click on a .pdf page and get the option to open the document with Preview. I used this frequently to print a few pages of a lengthy .pdf since I could see exactly what pages to print rather than guessing at the correlation of the document's page numbers to those viewed in Safari. At some point over the summer this feature went missing -- I believe after upgrading to Safari 5.1 or to SL 6.6.8. Was this feature removed, or is it just me? Thanks!
Edit -- sorry, nevermind. I do have the Open with Preview.app feature, however it had not been shown as available in the .pdf files I have been viewing since they apparently have some sort of password protection.Works for me. Please enable guest logins and log in as Guest. Launch Safari and test. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and disable it if you wish.

I just upgraded to 10.6.8 and my saved files open with "Color-Sync Utility". How can I change it back to Preview?
Select a document in the Finder, choose Get Info from the File menu, click on Open With, select the desired application, and press the Change All button.

Links within a pdf won't open in Safari, but work fine on Explorer, Firefox
I created a pdf with embedded links and posted it to my site. The links within the pdf work just fine with Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox, but they will not open with Safari, neither on a Mac nor on a Windows platform.
Why is this happening and how can I fix it?Hi and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
Try this. In the Safari window, click the Preferences icon right side of page.
Then select the General tab.
At the bottom of that window, below, "Open links from applications", choose the option you want.

Can you send the PDF form you are trying to import to [email protected] so we can take a look at it.

I can't open any pdf documents with Adobe Reader XI...get an error that "Adobe has stopped working" then it closes. Is this an Adobe issue, Microsoft issue, or security issue?
Thank you! That seemed to do the trick. Don't think I'd ever have figured that one out!!

Feature Request: Offer to uninstall old versions
Not sure how I ended up like this but using CC I ended up with multiple version of software. Not just 64bit vs. 32bit version. But InDesign CS6, CC, and CC(2014). It'd be great to opt-in to just automagically uninstall all other versions if you're co
