Ok. Keep in mind the 64bit version of Firefox will not work either. If you get this message in Safari, you will need to set up the Reader plug-in. Here is info on that: Configure browser to use the Adobe PDF plug-in to open online PDF files

What browser do you use?

Many browsers have their own pdf viewers now and are not compatible with the Adobe Reader plug-in. You may have to right-click the link to the pdf, choose to save it to your computer then use File>Open from within Reader to open it.

I've been using Chrome. I'll give Firefox and Safari a try.

I recently installed Adobe Acrobat Reader DC on my mac to create a word doc from a pdf.  Since then, I've been unable to open any pdf files (even ones I opened previously with out any trouble).  I would receive an error message that indicated I didn't have permission to open the file.

Simple solution: Remove ARDC as the default reader! That was $28 well spent!
