Question

Right click to open a pdf in AA Pro XI from a page in Safari doesn't work?

I am using an iMac 27 on OSX 10.11.3 with Adobe Acrobat Pro XI : When in Safari or other web browser on my Work machine I am able to right click and the dialogue box opens with the "save as" option or "Open in Acrobat" . In this case I cannot do this as the right click option doesn't appear so I am forced to read the PDF in safari with no way of getting it to open in AA Pro XI. 

Why when I am in safari reading a PDF can I not simply right click and save and open the file in Acrobat Pro XI which I can then save to file.?

Please someone help because adobe acrobat have no phone help or assistance at all.

Thanks Robert
