When I open a PDF from an email Time Machine starts

Everytime I open a PDF from an email Time Machine starts & freezes my 4k iMac for about 30 seconds, it's annoying.

Although the problem is not the same, please follow the instructions in this support article to reset the Launch Services database. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before proceeding. You may have to log out or restart to see a change.

When I open a page from an email document it opens in Internet Explorer - how can I stop this?

Hi, I use Firefox as my default browser but when I opened a link from an official emailed adobe document it opened in Internet Explorer - I want to force all browser links to open only in Firefox - I have checked the advanced options and Firefox is set to my default, please help.

Hi PCM1, if i understand well the problem you have is when you click on a URL in a pdf file, the link opens in IE ? Have you checked in the default programs panel to see if all was well set ?

No option when opening a pdf from an email attachment

I recently had trouble opening a pdf file that was attached to an email, and while mucking around with it, I tried opening it up in Word (which didn't help that particular problem anyway). Unfortunately, now, all my emailed pdf files open up automatically in Word rather than Acrobat Reader.
So now my question is, how do I get them to automatically open in Acrobat reader directly from the emailed attachment instead of Word? At the moment I have to save them all to my c: drive, then right click on them and select Open With Acrobat Reader 10. What I want is for them to automatically open in Acrobat Reader 10 rather than having to save them all to my c: drive first because I have many, many of them to print out. Can anyone help me with this please?

Hi,
Can you try saving any PDF onto your local machine (say C:\) and then right click on the same.
1. Click on the "Open With > Chose Program".
2. Select Adobe Reader 10 and make sure that you check the checkbox "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file"
3. Click on OK and you should be good to go.
Hope this does the trick

When I open a pdf from email source or online it deletes my authorization and I get a message saying this program is not authorized. You need to uninstall and reinstall.

Saying this program is not authorized. You need to uninstall it and reinstall. This is getting old. Any way to fix it?@

This is Acrobat9 Pro. Has worked fine until very recent when this started happening.

When i open a pdf from any website to read , firefox automatically downloads to the hadr disk, safari does not do this. how can i stop all the clutter resulting from these downloads

as above ,

The text editor is the text area that you use on the webmail (Yahoo, Hotmail) website to create a new mail.
You can compare that with the ''Post new message'' text area that you use to create a new post on this forum.
Just above the text area that you use to enter the message text there is usually a button bar with buttons that allows some text formatting like Bold and Italic and can also include a button to make a clickable hyperlink.
Check the tooltip of each button by hovering with the mouse over each button.

Why do Certain fonts change when I convert to PDF from Microsoft word? They start out 60s chic and end up as a standard font.

Why do some fonts change when converted from Microsoft word to PDF? It starts out as 60s chic and changes to standard font.

Related to the question, I suspect you have licensed fonts that cannot be embedded. Thus, the PDF is using what it is finding to be an equivalent as well as it can guess. Did you check the font list in the PDF?

Error message when trying to back up from iMac to Time Machine says "sparsebundle already in use"

This is a screen shot of the error message I get. I don't know what a "sparsebundle" is much less how to find and/or fix it! Can anyone help???

First, restart the iMac and your Time Capsule. In most of cases, this should solve the problem.
If it doesn't work, read > http://pondini.org/TM/C12.html
This is caused by a bug in Lion and Mountain Lion. This could also mean that you have another Mac and you are using the backup file of your iMac with that computer

When I open a pdf document from my dropbox to view it, the document shows up blank, even though it is filled out. This also happened with pdf documents that have been e-mailed to me.

When I open emails with PDFs I click on the attachment (doing this all on my iPad) it gives me the option to "open in iBooks", I accept then after that the document is sucked into my iPad but I can't do anything with the PDF after that. Where is the actual file on my iPad? Why can't I email or send these PDFs to my cloud (Dropbox)?
It's like once they go into iBooks they're stuck forever.

you either don't have a reader plugin for your browser or you have a security setting preventing/blocker preventing non-local pdfs from opening in your browser.

I'm trying to open a PDF from Safari with iBooks, but when I choose "Open with ..." in Safari, only Pages and Dropbox show as options. I'm running iOS 7.1.2 and iBooks 3.2. Thanks for any ideas!

On my iPad, I'm trying to open a PDF from Safari with iBooks, but when I choose "Open with ..." in Safari, only Pages and Dropbox show as options. I'm running iOS 7.1.2 and iBooks 3.2. I have rebooted the iPad and that did not help, and reinstalled iBooks, which also changed nothing. Thanks for any ideas!

Yup, it was uploaded to our school Wiki as a PDF, and Pages did open it. I was then able to move it to iBooks, but I'd rather avoid the extra steps.

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.

When I open a PDF file and I try to Save As to my shared drive I can't select it from the dropdown

When I open a PDF file and I try to Save As to my shared drive I can’t select it from the dropdown menu. (See screenshot).
When I select on the left side “Computer”, then my shared drive is available. (See screenshot).

Hi staceye,
Where are you creating the PDF file, and what is the error that you're receiving? Is it a file that is saved in your Acrobat.com online account?
Best,
Sara

Newbie - How can I know when someone opens a PDF I sent in an email?

I'm trying to get a simple proof of receipt when someone opens a PDF attached to an email. Any suggestions about how to do this?

Thanks try67. Consider this: I'm not trying to silently trick the receiver, either. I intend to explain to them up front that when they open the attached PDF, it will provide a signal that is the proof they have been notified. It's also okay if this isn't easy; I have IT people that can do it.
