Preview.app (El Capitan) does NOT display PDF files

Since the installation of El Capitan...

Preview.app stop work, just show blank pages... all 'other' pdf viewers work on my mac... but not the Viewer System.

I saw another reference to this question on this forum... thought it would be a little to be big problem...

Thank you

Please, back up all data. Leave the preview runs.

Hold down the option key and select go ▹ library in the Finder menu bar. In the library folder, delete the following, if they exist:

Group Containers/com.apple.Preview

Preferences/com.apple.Preview.LSSharedFileList.plist

State/com.apple.Preview.savedState request registered

Sign out and then sign back in. Launch the application and test.

  • Recently, Firefox does not display PDF files. It acts like it loads the PDF file, but there is nothing there but the "program" that the document should be presented in.

    This started with 20 Firefox and persists with Firefox 21. It's never happened before. Everything is up-to-date. However, PDFs don't appear. Sometimes I see the bar indicating a load of progression and sometimes it of just the normal program PDF background, but no matter, he does not appear. What is happening with this?

    Moreover, I will eventually switch to Chrome to view the PDF file as I can't make them work in Firefox.

    Thank you very much. That seems to work. What a shame the preview version of Firefox is not longer functional!

  • Acrobat, does not display PDF files correctly in the browser

    This seems to happen only on chrome when displayed in the browser of the graphics, especially the text appears incorrectly, or in this case at all. You can see that the financial 'Fi' is missing. It is a major problem because most of the people who visit the site hit the download and the PDF file automatically opens in the browser. Is there any solution for this? Not bad I exported in Indesign? Fonts should be returned in an object before you export it in PDF format (this is the galley)?

    BUT a quick fix is to download the PDF file, display in the browser, then refresh the page and display all fonts. Weird. It is a step that many will miss.

    This is what it looks like when downloaded and played in acrobat. Notice the thicker fonts

    You probably view the PDF file in the viewer of PDF from Google Chrome and NOT Adobe's PDF Viewer.

    1. check your plug-ins by going to:

    chrome://plugins

    2. go outside viewer of PDF of Chrome.

    3. If you see (active), then you use the viewer of PDF of Chrome.

    Missing in many ways for the feature.  Fonts is one of them.

    4. you can disable

    5. then go to the the list for Adobe Reader

    Adobe PDF plugin for Firefox and Netscape

    6. then turn it back on.

  • Firefox does not display jpg files from a web page so that other browsers

    I created a page and downloaded www.nutechequipments.com/equipment.html page does not display jpg files in firefox only everywhere, including in Dubai. But all other browsers display images jpg uploaded in a perfect way. In Firefox that the table is loaded with spaces reserved. It is not a problem with my computer. It is the problem all over the world.

    the html code example is given below:

    <td><img src="equip\equip.jpg" size width="110" height="90"></td><td><img src="equip\equip1.jpg" size width="110" height="90"></td><td><img src="equip\equip (2).jpg" size width="110" height="90"></td><td><img src="equip\equip (3).jpg" size width="110" height="90"></td>

    You have the backslashes (------: fumble that 5% C, as seen in tools > Page Info > media) in the scr attribute of images and which does not work in Firefox.
    You must change the backslashes into slashes in order to

    Hi donqmaine,

    When you open a PDF attachment on iPhone or iPad, it will open in preview of Apple Mail (default), which is not rendered annotations (for example Sticky Notes, point climax, Freehand) or form fields.

    Would you have your message recipients read the section "open email" following FAQ documents to open PDF files in Acrobat Reader to iOS instead?

  • Nexus10 version does not support pdf files in the web site.

    I have a new Nexus 10 and installed Firefox and the Epson Print software. When I go to the bath of Rockville and center of fitness, full screen, it will show me a button on the right side hourly. Click on that to start a download (it should just show me the contents of the file as does the true Firefox). If I go to the download section of Firefox, the download is listed, but when I try to do with the word app, it says that the file is not present. If I try to do with the Epson application, she argues that the application has stopped. If I go to epson print and look around, I can find the file and read it. But it's exceedingly complex.
    The same died of problem with crome, crome, but does not support full screen. This problem is not present on the ipad from apple with the web browser by default.

    in the original post, I am fearless "PDF viewer" as a name for a standalone application, and as I said in my reply, I installed this app. you suggested that what I needed was an Add on Firefox. I installed this add-on and could see page.
    I think you still have a bug in the download page, so that it appears not to pass the correct name to the app non-firefox that you want to use.

  • Recent items folder does not display the files saved in the Office 2010

    I have a question where the record of recent items (Start/Recent Items) shows not all files that are created in Office 2010 or converted in this format. All other files (for example, .xls, .doc, .pdf) are displayed, but it's not Office 2010 files.

    If I open Excel 2010 or Word 2010 and go to file/Recent then files are all listed here as recent files, but do not show up in the start/Recent Items menu.

    I use Vista Home Premium with Office 2010, but also have this problem with my PC which is running Windows 7. However, it is less a question here as I have Word and Excel pinned to the taskbar and you can access these files from there.

    It drives me crazy because I have to go through a number of additional steps to open files that are routinely used and wonder if it's a 'function' or a bug.

    I posted this question in the forum Office 2010 too and it advises to ask here as well. My reason for posting, it is originally that I am convinced that this is a problem with Office 2010. Files created in Office 2010 and saved in the Excel/Word 2003 (.doc and .xls) format very well, appear as files created under .docxand .xlsx that have been converted to the format Office 2003. It occurs only with files with extensions Office 2010.

    I tried to dlete everything in the folder and run the "shell: recent ' command, but the opinion is to do this after DELETING the folder recent elements which is something the system won't let me do - there is no option to delete the record.

    Any help much appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Thanks for the clarification, but once again, I think you're wrong understanding of the issue. The point is that it does not appear in the list of recent items... otherwise I him have not posted the question.

    I appreciate that we're trying to be helpful, but it is actually more an obstacle if you have not read and understood the issue of opening. Sorry to be blunt, but the fundamental issue has not received by people either in this topic or the forum of the Office.

    However, I am pleased to announce that the elements are now show - do not know what he did, but I think it's the no-check/recheck option proposed by Nithyananda J, BUT ONLY AFTER a REBOOT.

    However, I also tried various other things on mine so can't be sure which of them solved the problem.

  • printer does not print Pdf files

    as above, computer then presents the pdf text, but I can't print sheets in the printer I need (brother dcp - 117c) any help appreciated

    Hi pcmcgarry,

    (a) this only happens with PDF files?  Do you get specific error messages?

    (b) are you able to print PDF files online?

    To determine the cause of the printing problem, I suggest you try the following steps:

    Step 1: Print another PDF file, such as the first page of Acrobat Help:

    If that file prints correctly, the PDF file that does not print properly may be damaged.

    If the file prints correctly, go to step 2.

    Step 2: Print another type of file (for example, a .txt file) from another application.

    If that file prints correctly, the problem is not systemic - specific to the Acrobat product. However, the way Acrobat interacts with the system may affect printing performance.

    Go to step 3 to eliminate some causes related to the system of the problem.

    The problem may be system resources low, not enough memory on your printer, or a bad connection between your computer and the printer.

    Step 3: Restart your computer and then print a PDF file:

    If the file prints correctly, your system may have been out of memory or resources.

    If the file prints correctly, go to step 4.

    Step 4: Turn off your printer for at least 15 seconds to clear the memory, then turn it back on and print a PDF file:

    If the file prints correctly, the printer's memory was too full.

  • Windows Explorer does not display the file or files with fix = folder

    A few days ago I noticed that I have some files seemed not be included in the records, I have worked with. After some fiddling, I find that I can see all the files in a folder if 'fix' (at the top right of the display of the files) is set to "name". Usually the value by default in "folder" but whose value fix folder the subfolders and their content is invisible.

    With fix the name value, I moved some files to another folder and they turned upward correctly. But when I then moved this folder in the folder where I had taken the files and set fix it to the folder again the folder and its files have disappeared.

    I had recently downloaded both Dropbox and Google so I removed the and pulled out another who was supposed to repair/update drivers that I had a problem with many (e.g. printer) drivers disappear just before Christmas. Does not see how this can be related unless there is also a malware somewhere on my computer. I have Norton 360 update and run Windows Defender when he invites me.

    The only other recent change (after the loss of the pilot) was to download all the Windows updates current, even if not necessary.

    I am running Windows 7 64 bit. Windows is up to date.

    Right-click on the folder and click Properties,

    Is there a Unlock button on the general section?

    If not,

    Check the hidden box and click on apply.

    This will set all the folders and files as hidden.

    Now to clear the hidden check box, click on apply again.

    This will remove the attribute hidden folders and files,

    Finally click OK and apply and OK your way out.

    At worst, check with your user account permissions.

  • New OfficeJet Pro 8620 does not print PDF files

    I have a brand new 8620 and I use Windows 7. My printer prints a few PDFs but not most other PDF documents. I am using Acrobat Reader XI. The printer will print from MS Office.

    HELP, please!

    Hello! Welcome to the @lmel forums

    I have a few ideas that come to mind, I read the issue you're having with printing of PDF files. They are here!

    1. try to resave the PDF files that do not print and then try printing again.

    2. update of Adobe:

    Select help - search for updates. If a new update is available, it installs automatically.
    Once installed, you can restart a computer.
    Then try to print the PDF file.

    http://helpx.Adobe.com/Acrobat/KB/troubleshoot-PDF-printing-Acrobat-Reader.html

    3. run the print and scan the doctor. This diagnostic tool will check for all conflicts that may be causing the problem. The tool will show you a report at the end. If there is a problem that the tool could not fix, you will notice it in the results.

    4. uninstalling the printer software

    Restart the PC

    Reinstall the printer: HP Officejet Pro 8620 e-all-in-One Printer series full feature software and drivers

    That should do the trick! Keep me abreast of the results!

    Have a great Wednesday

  • C5580 does not print pdf files

    My HP Photosmart C5580 all-in-one print and copy perfectly except for PDF files.  When you try to print the PDF files, whether on the web or on my hard drive, a blank sheet of paper is passed through the printer and I get an error message saying there is a paper jam.  However, there is no paper jam.  I contacted HP support twice by phone.  Every time they say they'll call me in 1 hour with the solution, but they do not return calls.

    I tried to uninstall and reinstall the program, and now the printer works perfectly.  Hope this helps someone else in the future.
