    Default Default PDF Viewer

    Acrobat Pro continually asks me if I want to change the default PDf viewer from Preview to Acrobat Pro and I always click NO. How can I get it to stop asking me? I couldn't find anything in the prefs.

    Default Re: Default PDF Viewer

    Jeremy,

    The easiest way to get it to stop asking is to say yes! Ok that is not
    the answer you are looking for. The problem may be that it cannot
    remember your answer. Try deleting the Acrobat preference file. The file
    may be corrupt.

    You also might try CTRL + click on a PDF and then choose Get Info. In the Get Info dialog go to Open with: and choose Preview then click the change all button.

    Good Luck!

    Default Re: Default PDF Viewer

    Mike is correct, the only way is to click YES and accept that Acrobat is the default now. If I change the default in the Finder using Get Info, Acrobat will just pester me again.

    Hi,

    If the pdf file is really corrupt, you may try Advanced PDF Repair at
    [url]http://www.datanumen.com/apdfr/[/url] This tool is rather useful in
    salvaging damaged PDF documents.

    Hope this will help.

    Default Default PDF Viewer

    Did you ever find an anywhere to this? I get that stupid dialog box every time and it would be nice if there was an option to turn it off.
