Mac users I need help...

Published

I'm trying to download the lectures from my Biology class and they are in PDF format, I believe the publisher is Adobe Presenter. I downloaded the Adobe Flash Player last night and it still will not let me download the file. Do I have to download Adobe Presenter too? I'm able to download them at work but we have Google Chrome and Adobe Reader.

Adobe Reader is what you want. I also read in another forum about an app called "Documents" that might be able to help you.

So then what's the difference between Adobe Reader and Adobe Flash Player?

If it is just a PDF, you don't need anything. Preview (native on a Mac) opens PDFs better that Adobe Reader does.

Adobe Flash is a multimedia tool often associated with those flashy websites.

Adobe reader :) That should work, good luck.

Hi:

Flash player plays flash files which are like movies, streaming media.

Thank you.

It's an interactive PDF where there's video/audio so when preview opens it it is blank. That's why I downloaded Flash Player. When I get home I'm going to make sure my Adobe Reader is up to date. It's not a general PDF document, it's him actually talking showing the powerpoint.
