How do you prevent Acrobat DC open default .pdf files?

I set Acrobat Professional as my default application for .pdf files, but it doesn't; unless I did a right click and choose 'Open with' option, Acrobat DC picks up even with Acrobat Professional, set as the default application.  I have no use DC that I bought Acrobat Professional, which is more useful and more familiar for me regarding the handling of .pdf files.  I would uninstall it simply, I have before for this reason, but lately I've found sites ask I install as the former acrobat plug-ins are to denigrate, so not seen DC is a problem as well.  I know that Adobe is proud of their new program, but DC behaves like a religious cult or anxious teenager, I can't decide which, anyway, the point is he is boring; I don't want to.

  • How do you prevent image selection in a pdf file?

    I try to avoid the selection of an image in a PDF file. In my file, it is possible to click and select an image that gets in a blue color. I would like to avoid that, creating a file that looks like this: http://www.dcc.ttu.ee/lap/lap5760/jy992d48301-j_fx.pdf

    Note that I speak not the encryption or the security option, but an alternative where we cannot yet choose the image of May. I am well aware that this will not copy the image (there are always print to the screen, in any case), but I just want to avoid the possibility to select the image in any case for an academic article.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you!

    The file you linked to is guaranteed... So if you want that your file the same behavior, apply security as well.

    Another option is to export your file in a format of image and then re - generate a new PDF file from these images. That would be 'flatten' in a way that would make the unselectable original images, but I think it's a long way to go for this small difference.

  • How can I get firefox to open a pdf file in adobe instead of the new pdf reader?

    Before the recent update, 19.0, I google something and see [PDF] next to a link. I click the Center button to open it in a new tab. Firefox might download the file and open it with Adobe Reader. I like this.

    With the new update 19.0, the pdf file would open in the new tab. I have to down load it and then open it in Adobe. I don't like this.

    I'm going to preferences under applications. I look to see if I can change that. Next to document Adobe Reader, I choose to use Adobe Reader, but when I click on a link [PDF], it always opens the file in Firefox and not Adobe.

    I want to go back to the way it was.

    Problem: Open a pdf file in Firefox, he wants to save the file.
    Remedy:
    In Firefox, tools, Options, choose the column on the left (Content Type) Applications tab, select Portable Document Format (pdf). Right column (Action) choose Preview in Firefox.
    I use Firefox 21.0.

  • How can I prevent someone to save a PDF file

    I have a PDF file that I posted on my site, I want to make available for people to see, but not being able to print or save (the document... file - record; file-save-as or another method).  I figured out how to disable the print function, through security - permissions (authorized, unauthorized printing), however, I was not able to determine how to disable the registration function. I realized how do to hide the menu and tool bars (Options Security - view initial - user interface), however, his inconsistent views of the user.  Recommendations?  Thank you.

    Impossible. To view a PDF file, it must first be registered on the local computer.
    If you want to limit who can open the file and he then discovered you need to use the DRM protection, which is very expensive.

  • How to stop Acrobat automatically opens created PDF?

    Maybe it's something else, but my search didn't find it.

    How can I stop Acrobat automatically opens every PDF file I created in Adobe Reader?  I use using Acrobat 6.0 Pro.

    Thanks for your help with this major annoyance!

    See you soon.

  • My laptop can not download and open online pdf files

    Hello

    My computer (WINDOWS 7 ULTIMATE {32 Bit}) done an update on February 27, now I can't open or download files special PDF Online.

    I tried to run the system restore point, but it does give me a DATE option that I want to restore.

    He gave me this option date March 3, 2015 only.

    Help, please!

    Hello
    Thanks for posting your questions about Microsoft Community.
    To help you better could you please clarify a number of things like:
    1. you try to download a .pdf file as an attachment to an email or a Web site hyperlink?
    2. What is the default browser installed on the computer?
    3. what actually happens when you try to download\open a pdf file?
    4. What is the management software pdf documents by default (such as Adobe reader or NitroPDF) installed on the machine?

     
    However, assuming you are using Acrobat or Adobe Reader on a system that includes a browser, you configure automatically the browser to open PDF files in the browser window. Acrobat and Adobe Reader install the ActiveX plugin files allow you to use Internet Explorer or AOL to open PDF files.
     
    If an application is installed, but do not open the PDF files in the browser window, then work through the following steps to configure the browser:
    To open PDF files in a browser window, the ActiveX folder should contain the following files: AcroPDF.dll, AcroIEHelper.dll and pdfshell.dll.
     
    ActiveX controls must be in: program files Files\Adobe\Acrobat\ActiveX
    If one of these files is missing, then repair Acrobat or Adobe Reader by choosing Help > repair Acrobat Installation or reinstall the application.
     
    Make sure that you use a version of your web browser, Acrobat and Adobe Reader supports, such as Internet Explorer. Supported for Adobe Acrobat 8, Adobe Reader 8 browsers are Internet Explorer 6.0, 6.0 SP1, Internet Explorer 7.0, Firefox 1.5 or later, Mozilla 1.7 and AOL 9.

    To make sure that the Windows registry provides the information that your web browser should display PDF files, restart Windows. If the Windows registry is not updated after the installation of Acrobat, then the web browser can not find the references it needs to access the PDF files on the web.

    Reinstall Acrobat or Adobe Reader.

    To ensure that the correct information of the plug-in is added to the Windows registry, reinstall Acrobat or Adobe Reader.If you want the browser to open PDFs in a separate Acrobat window, then configure the browser to use Acrobat or Adobe Reader as a helper application. Then, when you select a PDF file in Internet Explorer or AOL, the browser opens the PDF file in an Acrobat window instead of the browser window.
     

    To configure the browser to use Acrobat or Adobe Reader to open PDF files:
    1. close your web browser.
    2 start Acrobat or Adobe Reader.
    3 Choose Edition > Preferences.
    4. Select Internet in the list on the left.
    5 disable the display option IN the browser, and then click OK.
    6. restart Internet Explorer or AOL.

    Finally,.

    And there is also a possibility that the file association to open pdf files was damaged for some reason, then we will have Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader as default program and check if that helps. Please refer to:

     
    Note: The next time you select a link to a file PDF, the browser may prompt you to open or save the file. If you choose to open the file, then the browser opens the file in the support application that you specified. If you choose to save the file, the browser downloads the file to the hard drive.
     
    I hope this helps.
    Please get back to us with the required information, and we would be happy to help you.
     
    Kind regards.
  • To open a Pdf file on the second monitor

    Original title: two monitors and open files
    Hello!!

    I have now two monitors on my desktop and I want to know how I can open a PDF on the second monitor, and keep all my PDFs on the first monitor? I want to simply click in the file - on the first monitor - and the file opens automatically on the second monitor.

    Thank you

    M. Vilela

    Hello

    Try these steps and check if you are able to open the PDF file on the second monitor...
    a. open a PDF file. Now, UN-maximize the file.
    (b) move it to the other monitor.
    c. now, close the document without maximizing it on the new monitor.

    d. now attempt to open a PDF file.
    e. it should open on the second monitor.
    f. maximise, close the vial.
    g. now opens a new PDF on the new monitor, and it will be maximized when opened.

    Adobe will remember whether or not a document has been expanded and open PDF one another in the same way, but it will update the monitor to use when a document is closed so that not maximized.

    How can I prevent word from opening when I boot my Mac?

    It may be something added to the login items in System Preferences > users and groups

  • The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000005) - keep from appearing when you open a pdf file. How can I stop this?

    I'm on a 64-bit Windows 7 Pro computer and just upgraded to the most recent Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.  When I open a PDF file a window opens saying "the application could not start (0xc0000005).  Click OK to close this application"I click OK and the window opens up again about three or four times before it finally stopped.  My PDF file is then visible.  This is driving me crazy!  I tried to use "Repair Installation" in the Menu Help, but it has no effect.  I downloaded and installed the latest update - and this miserable message keeps popping up!  Before you do a system restore to revert to the previous version, can someone please tell me how to solve this problem?  Thank you very much.

    Hello

    There might be a chance of the previous version left overs. Try uninstalling Acrobat using cleaning tool: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html

    Then try to reinstall it and then see if that solves the problem.
