HI,

Today, I have noticed that all my PDFs are opening in Preview and not acrobat? Nothing was changed so this is very confussing, Does anyone know of a global way i can set all PDFs to open in acrobat? I have Acrobat Pro and am on a Mac. Many thanks!

Found the solution:

To change the default app for PDF,

  1. In Finder, select one of PDF files.
  2. Right-click on it and select Get Info in the pop-up, or type command-I, or choose Get Info on the File menu.
  3. Click Open With if the section isn't already expanded.
  4. Click the dropdown list of applications and choose Preview.
  5. Click Change All...
  6. Click Continue on the dialog for confirmation.
