Macbook Air Failed To Download Pdf File
I am unable to download pdf files attached to my e-mail. I have a MacBook Pro computer with OS X with an Intel chip, version 10.6.7 operating system, Adobe Reader9.3.1, and Adobe Updater 6.2.0 1474. What do I need to do? On your Mac, open the document you want to save as a PDF. Choose File Print. Click the PDF pop-up menu, then choose Save as PDF. Choose a name and location for the PDF file. Enter the information you want in the Title, Author, Subject, and Keywords fields. Later, you can search on the contents of those fields using Spotlight.
If Safari is still downloading the file, wait for it to finish. You can’t open a file while it’s being downloaded.
If the download is paused, resume it. Show the downloads list by clicking the Show Downloads button , then click the Resume button for the paused download.
If you see a message that the app can’t be opened because it’s from an unidentified developer or wasn’t downloaded from the Mac App Store, you can open the app by overriding the settings in Security & Privacy preferences.
Sometimes a download is incomplete because the file was damaged. Try downloading it again.
Make sure you have the app needed to open the file. If you do, the file may have been corrupted during the download. Delete it, then try downloading it again.
The downloaded file may be a compressed archive or disk image that contains the file you want. If the file is from a trusted site, double-click it to decompress it.
