  Work does not have PDF files. You need Acrobat Reader or Foxit Reader.

• Cannot open PDF files in the browser. I tried every fix mentioned and it still does not work!

  I have Windows XP. Using firefox as my browser. All of a sudden, I can't open the PDF files in the browser. I tried all the mentioned patches. Nothing works! Check the configuration of the plugin, checked the settings Adobe Reader.

  Is the problem that Firefox opens a blank tab, or that it requires you to download the file?

  I guess you tried switching spectators between the internal viewer and the Adobe plugin. If this article does not, steps: How to disable the built-in PDF Viewer and use another Viewer. Sometimes behind switching will allow to correct an error in the settings file.

  You can rename or delete the settings file that stores these associations and have Firefox regenerate. If the file is corrupt, this could be the only option that works. Here's how:

  Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using

  Help > troubleshooting information > "view file" button.

  Leave this window open, activate any Firefox window and quit the program (for example, the file menu > exit or Firefox menu > Exit)

  Pause while Firefox finishing his cleaning, then rename the mimeTypes.rdf to something like mimeTypes.old

  Restart Firefox. Your likely PDF preferences will be reset to the internal PDF Viewer, but you can activate the Adobe plugin as described in the above-linked article.

  Any improvement?

• Problems to open PDF files after the upgrade of the file server for 2012 R2

  Hello

  This weekend we have improved our main Windows 2003 to 2012 R2 file server.

  Since the upgrade, users (including myself) cannot open a PDF of the file server.  If I double click on a PDF file, it opens as usual, but if I double click a different PDF, the acrobat reader flashes (in the Task Manager I can see another instance AcroRd32.exe starts and stops) but the second document does not open.

  If I close the first document and then try and open the other, and then it opens without any problem.

  This only affected the opening of files on the new file server, opening several files on a local disk is very good.

  If I disable 'enable protected mode at startup' then I can open several documents of the file server.  I would prefer not to have to do.

  Users are using Acrobat Reader 11.0.10 on 64-bit Windows 7 and Windows 2008 R2 Remote Desktop.

  Does anyone have any ideas, it may be the cause?  And does anyone have one solution other than to disable the protected mode?

  Thank you

• problem with opening pdf file of the web browser

  I have Acrobat Pro ver 6 and Adobe Reader 9.1 on a computer.  When my user tries to open a pdf file from the web as it gets the following error message:

  "Adobe Acrobat/Reader that not running to view the PDF files in a WEb browser.  ADBE Acrobat/Reader version 8 or 9 is required.  Quit and try again. »

  What also happens is that Acrobat Pro 6 worm opens and nothing is there.

  I don't know why he received this message from Reader 9.1 is installed.

  One can shed some light on this for me.

  This user must have Acrobat and Reader on its system.  I understand that there are problems with having both.

  It has also set up so that any PDF opens using Reader 9.1.

  Thank you

  Configuration of your PC drive by default for embedded PDFs has become confused, because of multiple solutions of Adobe PDF documents installed on a PC.

  Solution 1:

  Go to start > run

  Type regedit, and then click OK.

  Navigate to the following key: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Software\Adobe\Acrobat\Exe

  Make sure that the correct default data value is set to the path where are installed the Adobe Reader or Acrobat.

  The default installation values are:

  "C:\Program 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe Adobe.

  or

  "C:\Program Files\adobe\acrobat 6.0\acrobat\Acrobat.exe" (not sure of this path.  Make sure that on your PC)

  If Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat is installed.

  Solution 2:

  Configure the browser to use Acrobat or Adobe Reader as a helper application.

  If you use Firefox to browse the web, you can change this setting in Firefox by clicking on:

  Tools > Options

  Click on the "Applications" tab

  The first item in the list should be "Adobe Acrobat Document".  In the Action list, click the drop-down arrow and select the application you want to read a PDF file in the web browser.  Click OK and you should be done.

  If you use Internet Explorer to view a PDF file, try the steps below.

  After you configure Acrobat or Adobe Reader as a helper application, the browser starts the helper application in a separate window and displays PDF files within this window. Acrobat and Adobe Reader both include a preference that allows you to specify the Acrobat or Adobe Reader as a helper application.

  To configure Acrobat or Adobe Reader as a helper application:
  Start Acrobat or Adobe Reader.
  Choose Edition > Preferences.
  Select Internet on the left.
  Deselect Display PDF in browser using [Acrobat application], and then click OK.
  Quit Acrobat or Adobe Reader.
  The next time you select a link to a PDF file in the browser, a dialog box asking what you want to do with the file. If you select open, the browser opens the PDF file in Acrobat or Adobe Reader (request for assistance); If you select save it on the disk, the browser saves the PDF file on your hard drive.

• Bulk convert MS in PDF files in the folder structure on Mac OS

  Hi all, I hope you are well?

  I have a question that has been confusing for some time.  I'm now using Adobe Acrobat X Pro on a Mac, my company switched a bit put us all to Mac.

  I always used to use Adobe Pro on a PC and can convert batch all the MS files in a folder structure nested containing different files MS throughout the structure of folders at different levels and Adobe would be Batch convert the batch and pass the converts and OCR'd PDF in the same folder as the original.  It is a task, although not required by week what at least one a month, and sometimes on a large scale.

  Now that I'm using Adobe Pro X on a Mac, I see an option batch convert, but it only allows me to select the PDF files and does not allow me to select the documents Ms.

  Nobody knows what is happening here, are my settings incorrect or do I need Adobe 11 Pro. We have 19 other people who need to do so as well and will buy additional copies if we can get this to work?

  Any help and suggestions are greatly appreciated.

  Kind regards

  Richsarada

  Hi Richsarada,

  Word is not one of the formats supported for processing batch create PDF files in Acrobat for Mac OS X, but it is in XI Acrobat for Windows. If you want to try Acrobat XI before buying, please do not hesitate to download a 30 day trial of www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html.

• Is no longer able to open pdf files in mail, Yosemite 10.10.5 in mail 8.2

  Hello

  After trying to install the 2016-004 security update 10.10.5 I'm more able to open pdf files in the yosemite in 8.2 mail or on our hard drive.

  When you try to install the update, we get the following message:

  "Updates available have changed."

  • We can install is more up-to-date, even if we downloaded.

  • Sent PDF files can only be opened by mail on our iMac

  • This has also affected all PDFs, saved the e-mail to the iMac.

  • All PDFs in mail over the past four years cannot be open-ended.

  • All PDFs over the past four years, saved from mail hard disk cannot be opened by any PDF reader, including preview and Adobe Acrobat.

  Any help appreciated

  Anthony

  Try to install the update mode without failure or another account admin user. If it works, check if you still have the PDF problem. If so, try what is displayed below links Safe Mode.

  Safe mode - subject

  Safe mode - Yosemite

  Make a backup using Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure that data files can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.

  Try to set up another admin user account to see if the same problem persists. If back to my Mac is enabled in the system Prefeences, the guest account will not work. The intention is to see if it is specific to an account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.

  Isolate a problem by using a different user account

  If the problem is still there, try to start safe mode using your usual account.  Disconnect all devices except those necessary for the test. Shut down the computer and then put it up after a 10 second wait. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the SHIFT key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. Startup is considerably slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a check for directory and disables all start-up and connection, among other things. When you restart normally, the initial restart may be slower than normal. If the system is operating normally, there may be 3rd party applications that pose a problem. Try to delete/disable the third-party applications after a reboot using the UN-Installer. For each disable/remove, you need to restart if you do them all at once.

  If it works in safe mode, try to run this program when it is started normally, copy and paste the result in a response. The program was created by Etresoft, a regular contributor.  Use please copy and paste the screenshots can be difficult to read. On the screen with the Options, please open Options and tick the boxes in the bottom 2 before the race. Click on the button "Report share" in the toolbar, select "Copy to Clipboard" and then paste into a response. This will show what is running on your computer. No personal information is shown.

• How to open a PDF file using the built-in Viewer? (Windows 8.1)

  When I try to open a PDF file I have the pop-up dialogue "you have chosen to open *.pdf Firefox do with this file? And display in Firefox is not one of the options. I am sure that what is happening is that there is no dialogue, and the PDF has just opened in the integrated Viewer pdf.js. If something is wrong with my profile I guess.

  I tried the instructions here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/view-pdf-files-firefox-without-downloading-them

  I checked through all my extensions and you do not have open a PDF (I have uBlock, NoScript and Zotero).
  I completely uninstalled Adobe Reader.
  I checked that in preferences/Applications, PDF is set to "Preview in Firefox.
  I did as I went through: config and change all settings with 'pdf' on their return to their default values
  But none of these things work.

  Is there anything else I can try to get this working?

  I think the problem I had was that some of the PDF files is served by Web sites with a "header" (I don't really know what that means) called "Content-Disposition: attachment", and when this happens, Firefox refuses to load them into the integrated PDF Viewer. (I don't know why Web sites this.)

  It is very helpful, especially because Firefox gives no indication as to what is happening (why the user preference for a PDF file is not respected). I just thought that the PDF Viewer was broken and spent hours trying to fix it.

  If anyone runs into this problem, there is an extension that fixes it: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/inlinedisposition/

  There is a Bugzilla bug open about it: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=773942

  As far as I can see, it would be trivial reflect changes the extension above in Firefox. In the bug of no claim that it would be a bad thing to do for safety reasons. But Firefox should at least present the user the ability to open the PDF file in the integrated Viewer or even more at least have explanations on why the PDF is not currently open in the Viewer, for example "this PDF file was marked for download, so for safety reasons it has not been opened in the integrated Viewer. Who would save people like me, who don't know the HTTP headers that are complicated, just think that Firefox is broken.

• 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.

• Open a PDF file inside the ZIP with the preview pane

• Why the CD player replace default 'use Acrobat Pro' to open pdf files?

  Had to install the CD player to open online pdf files. Already have Acrobat Pro. After the installation of the drive of DC and despite repeated together "use this application to open pdf files" Acrobat Pro, CD player overrides this setting. Seems so new versions of programs... as, for example, Windows 10... are programmed by nerds who seem to think they know more about what a user wants to that user only. Sites now offer pdf files requiring a CD to open, but this version now seems to have the attitude "to hell with what you want to do." I want only to set Acrobat Pro as my default application to open pdf files. How can I do this? And, Adobe, why do you think that you know better than I what I want? < Nothing new, by the way; I had to do to make the script processing in PhotoShop, because it substitutes for my choices for the target files and your technicians had no idea how to solve this problem, with workarounds.

  Hi brucec3514345,

  Acrobat Reader DC has been defined as the once its installed default PDF Viewer, this is a behavior of design. However, you can change the default program, open Acrobat, navigate to the Edit-> Preferences-> General-> click "set as my default pdf reader.

  Click OK to confirm the changes.

• Disable the opening of PDF files in the browser.

  Hi guys,.

  I'm deploying DC to my environment, but only one requirement is disable the opening of PDF files in I.e.

  The only work to date is to * manually * disable the Adobe PDF Reader add-on in IE11.

  I tried:

  1. GPO to disable Adobe PDF Reader. The add-on comes as disabled, but a PDF file will always open in IE.

  2. the HKCU entry for bBrowserIntegration = 0. It makes no difference.

  The second step is the only one I've ever used for reader XI and it satisfied my needs. Someone at - it run in this yet? It's really weird that manually disabling the addon works (all PDFs pop out of drive) but if I re - enable and disable then via GPO, the opening of PDF files in the browser.

  Hi christopherh31260325,

  Please provide detailed information about your question.

  Could you please try to uninstall and reinstall MS Reader from the link mentioned below:

  Adobe Acrobat Reader DC install for all versions

  Then, try to disable the opening of PDF files in the browser after you follow the instructions as indicated in the link of doc KB:

  Reference: Acrobat Help. Display PDF in browser. DC to Acrobat, Acrobat Reader DC

  Let me know if it helps.

  Kind regards
