Why is Acrobat naming files like this?

Acrobat has recently began naming files I want to save from the internet with a series of seemingly random letters and numbers.
For instance, previously if I went to www.domainname.com and right clicked on a link www.domainname.com/top10acrobattricks.pdf to open in a new tab and then save it, or if I just right click and "save as" it used to name the file in the dialog box as "top10acrobattricks".
But recently it has been giving the files random names like "A9R75A4", and I have to rename every file before I save it. Does anyone know why it has started to do this?
BTW, every file begins with "A9R", with the next 4 letters and numbers different and random, i.e. no sequence to them.

I'm used to these names for anonymous files created in Acrobat, or other apps. But let's see what I get. First, I will post a link to a PDF. Here is the link https://community.dur.ac.uk/g.l.ingram/download/tut.pdf. Please visit Why is Acrobat naming files like this? to check this link.

  • Can't figure out why the "Do this automatically for files like this from now on" is disabled Compressed (zipped) Folders

    I recently had to uninstall and reinstall Firefox. Now with the new version it will not allow me to click the check box "Do this automatically for files like this from now on". The line is disabled and a light gray. I went into the Applications tab under options and can't find the Compressed (zipped) Folders file type either.
    I download a bunch of files for work and to have to click is going to be the biggest pain. Any help will be greatly appreciated!!

  • Huge Acrobat temp files - is this right?

    Hi
    When using the reduce file size function, I have noticed that acrobat produces massive temp files.  I was running some files over night, and acrobat crashed, presumably because it ran out of HD space.  Upon looking for what was using all the space, I found a temp file in "C:\Documents and Settings\{user}\Local Settings\Temp".  This file was 75gig.  On another machine that I was running some files on, the file was 115gig.
    Is this right?  Why does acrobat produce files of such size when the original files are nowhere near that size combined?
    Why doesn't acrobat delete the temp file after it has finished 1 file, then create a new one for the next file?
    Running Acrobat 9 Pro on Windows XP, and Windows 7.
    Edit - I just ran a 3MB file through reduce file size, and acrobat created a temp file of 446MB

  • Why Hashtable class name is like this instead of HashTable

    I have a doubt in Collections, why Hashtable class name is like this, because, Every class name is start with CAPS like, ArrayList, SortedSet, etc. then the second name first letter should be in CAPS.

  • How do i make firefox automatically open a file. "Do this automatically with files like this from now on." does NOT work.

    I have firefox set to Open .wav files with VLC and i have the check box marked to "Do this automatically for files like this from now on." But every time i click download for a .wav voicemail from gmail, i get the same dialog box. I just want firefox to hand the downloaded file to VLC and play it. I don't want to have to click anything after i click the download link. Isn't that action what i'm telling firefox to do after i mark the checkbox with "Do this automatically with file like this from now on." ? Isn't that implied with my selection of the box? How can i fix this?i want to click a "download" link for a .wav voice mail in Gmail and have it automatically play in VLC without any further interaction from me.

    No it's saving the preferences and the check box remains checked from session to session. It will even continue to ask me to what to do with the file even in the same session when i try to download the same file again 5 seconds after i downloaded it the first time.

  • Download file keeps asking to save although "Do this automatically for files like this from now " is checked

    After downloading a open office document from a server I always get the question to open or to save it. I checked to open the file after downloading it to a tempory map.
    After downloading another open office document I always get the same question even when I checked "Do this automatically for files like this from now ".
    Is there a possibility to get rid of the question?

    Cor-el
    Tx for the reply but no answer found in the article.
    "Once you have made a selection, checking the box "Do this automatically for files like this from now on." will cause the file type and action to be displayed in the Applications tab as shown below (in this example the selected application is TextEdit)."
    FF works like described in the quote but nothing about immediately opening the file with the specified program. I've tested several possibilities but I always get the question what to do before opening the file. The "automatically"-option doesn't work for open office.
    Any other suggestions?

  • Ho do i unselect the "Do this automatically for files like this from now on." in the download dialog box?

    I have mistakenly clicked on the "Do this automatically for files like this from now on" in the download dialogue box. I want to open a pdf in adobe when I click on the link. currently the file just gets saved and I cannot change it. I have read thru the suggestions and gone into tools> options> applications and reassigned all of the pdf options to ask first and firefox still just downloads the files to somewhere. I don't want this option and I need to unselect the automatic box.
    How do i do so?
    I would really like to talk to someone on the phone.

    Ok, do this:
    #Go to www.getfirefox.com, and download Firefox. Install it over your current version of Firefox
    #After installing Firefox 18, then try to Reset.

  • Why doesn't the "more like this" section offer suggestions anymore in the netflix app?

    In the netflix app there is an area labeled "More like this" and it usually show suggestions of other movies.  After the last ATV update, it just shows "More like this..." but it doesn't show any movie suggestions.  When I spoke with netflix, they said the problem was with Apple since they design the netflix app.

    I would also like to know why the suggestions are missing.  It seems to work when you select movies outside netflix.

  • Why is my text formatting like this?

    Hi
    I've set up my .css so that the <H2> is big and bold,
    and that my <p> text is smaller and normal. The problem is
    that I'm getting a line break gap between the two even when there's
    not one in the HTML. There should be a space between the <p>
    and <H2> (padding of 5), but not the <H2> and
    <p>. The HTML is:
    <h2>Designers - </h2>
    <p>enter your designs</p>
    <h2>Everyone -</h2>
    <p>vote for your fav designs<br />
    Here's the .ccs:
    h2 {
    font: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    color: #69DB33;
    font-size:18px;
    font-weight: bold;
    text-align: center;
    padding-top: 5px;
    p {
    text-align: center;
    FONT-SIZE: 13px;
    COLOR: #847d6e;
    FONT-FAMILY: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-style: normal;
    So it kinda looks like this (layout-wise):
    Designers -
    enter your designs
    Everyone -
    vote for your fav designs
    instead of :
    Designers -
    enter your designs
    Everyone -
    vote for your fav designs
    I know I could probably do all the formatting in HTML, but I
    should be able to do it all in .css - can anyone help?
    Cheers
    Shaun

    Your interpretation is correct. Show us the code where it is
    not working
    for you, please.

  • How to create text file like this?

    I want to create text file like attached file. I thought to create 2 text file: First text file make the headers ( Position, value 0,value 1....) , Second file make the table of data. Then combine them to be third text file. Someone can post other solutions?
    Attachments:

    Hi ha noi,
    you don't need 2 intermediate textfiles!
    Just write the header line first, then attach lines containing values...

  • Why is my iPod behaving like this?

    My iPod Touch 4th generation keeps popping up Voice Command by itself and keeps stopping and adjusting the volume by itself. Why is it doing this? There's absolutely no damage to it....I haven't dropped it and there's no water damage

    Did you already try to reset it by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes up again? If this does not work, restore "as new ipod" without using the backup, in case it contains corrupt files.

  • Why does my project look like this?

    Hello to all. I am in the process of setting right my media...reorganizing my projects and events, deleting duplicates, deleting render files etc. I was puzzled to come across this appearance of one of the projects. FYI, I am using event manager to ensure that not more than one or two events/projects are presented to FCPX at any point of time. Here is this screenshot:
    Usually if there is some problem with events not being available [the project looks red in color and some warning is given] I am accustomed to the warning icon at the starting place of the project. Clicking upon that icon brings up the inspector window and clicking the modify event references button at the bottom usually settles the issue.
    When I ran the skimmer over the project, I was able to view the video and even hear the audio of this 'closed looking' project.
    Right now I have done this: click upon relink project files. I was able to locate all the files and have pressed the relink button and the process of relinking is going ahead.
    I dont know or understand what I am doing, but would like to know how this project has donned such an appearance as this one? Knowing this will help me to be more careful in future. Had I failed to locate the files, it could be that I would have lost the project.

    Upon rebooting and opening the application, I got this:
    The closed and blue colored appearance of the clipsremained unchanged. Placing the cursor upon the clip opens up that segment and the corresponding part of the project turns up in the viewer. Sound is also audible while skimming over the project.
    The project plays in the project library:
    While so playing, both audio is heard and the video is seen in the viewer, in a normal fashion. While the video is playing, that 'clip' is open in the project as seen at the cursor location in the shot above. But, when the video is stopped, the 'clip' in the project closes down and only the red skimmer is visible:
    The project opens in the timeline and also plays normally as well:
    Tom, I do not understand what all these 'abnormal' things mean. May I ask this : what is meant by consolidation of project media and can I click upon this option?

  • Firefox will not recognize when I change the settings for .torrent and .rar files to "do this automatically for files like this from now on", EVEN AFTER I change the setting in Tools Options Applications.

    Um, why is this? I think my Question pretty much covers it. Is there a way I can fix the settings so Firefox automatically opens .torrent files and .rar files with the programs I tell it to always use?

    I'm sorry to hear that you didn't receive a reply to this problem. As far as I can tell, there '''is''' no reply or solution to this problem so far, as I have exactly the same problem too.
    One solution that I did try (and which worked, but not for my exact needs) was to tell Firefox to ''always'' '''save''' the torrents to the download folder. Then, in your personal torrent program, change the settings so that torrents from the download folder are automatically searched and added. In this way, torrents are automatically loaded in your torrent program. However, for me, I need to see the contents of the torrent before I download it all, which wasn't possible with this method. If that isn't important to you, this should be a sufficient solution.

  • Why does Java utility look like this - mac god required pls

    Where are my option tabs - this is driving me nutzoid

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only Guest login created by Find My Mac.
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The Guest login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, you can’t boot in safe mode.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.
