AdobePDFViewer cannot find a compatible Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader to ..
Safari gets stummped when trying to open PDF files posted on some bank and financial sites. Instead, a dialog box / file browser box is opened which requests one to navigate to the reader. This even tho your reader is right there, visible in dialog box (* the 'Acrobat Reader 9' folder is in std font, but the app in folder, 'Adobe Reader.app', is grayed out *). I have a screen shot of this box, but cannot attach.
I have removed the Adobe plugin from ~/Library/internet Plug-Ins, there was no such plugin in /Library. I cleared Safari cache and restarted all to no avail. (ps: rather then removing, I renamed the Adobe plugin to removed_Adobe....)
Any suggestions? If I paste the URL of document into Firefox, firefox can deal with it. URL for test: http://materials.proxyvote.com/Approved/MC0069/20090203/AR_33254.PDF
