I had a fellow member report that he could not see the pdf file attachments here on the forum (Files Section) so I thought I would check with other members.
Here's a couple of links where the pdf files occur. Can you guys download and view them?

If you can, any thoughts on why these won't show up to our fellow (bronze contributor) member?
The pdf attachments don't even appear in the posts that he views.
He mentioned the he has no problems with receiving pdf files from other sites....just this one.
I mentioned the he should check his security settings, but that's the extent of my limited computer knowledge.
Yes Pat, I can view the attachments - I'm using my iPad at the moment. Will check with my PC later tonight.
I sometimes have problems viewing PDF's when I use my iPhone, but never normally with iPad or PC.
I can, too.
Might be the browser thing. He should try on Chrome, Mozilla, etc. which need to be updated. I can't think of anything else.
Pat let me know who cannot see the PDF files so I can ensure their permissions to see if there is an issue that I am not aware of.

ok, thanks guys!

Currently on my Android phone. The links that Pat posted open and the ODD files open with no problem.

All good. Windows 10 and iPhone.
Can't see them on my PC or my Android. Guess I'm not one of the cool kids.

Can't see the image or the link?
This is what I see in the linked thread by FJ Flyer
Installation of Bosch RE55 Regulator to FJ1200, just about says it all.
[edit] Pat added Transpo to title, hope you don't mind Chris.
So to answer Monkey's question, I see Pat's links but no PDF files in the linked threads.
I cannot see the pdf attachments. This has been an issue for several months.

Pat,
No problems here, I use:
Firefox 52.9.0
Adobe Reader XI
A new (different) browser (or a version update) may fix it. A while back, I had an oddball problem something like the one mentioned. My browser has user profiles, so I created a new one with a different user name. Once I was confident that the new profile was working well, I deleted the old profile. Fixed the problem completely, but we'll never know what caused the problem.
I dont see the PDF in one, and the other says "The topic or board you are looking for appears to be either missing or off limits to you."
Okay,
If you were having trouble viewing any attachment as a Bronze, Silver or Gold Contributor please log out. Then log back in and you should be able to see everything.
If you are still having issues, please let me know so I can continue to work on it.

Yes, whatever Randy did fixed it for me. Logged in and out, and works perfect now!
I've had this problem as well, and it was because I'm behind a federal firewall at work, so images and links from uncertified locations are suppressed. If your business has similar firewall protections, this could be the cause.
Ignore what I wrote at first - works now! Thanks!!!
Wrote this before I read back to the first page:
For me - it remains the same whether at work or home or public WiFi, computer or phone or iPad.
Thanks Randy!
Need my glasses but can download and see
Yep, whatever Randy did fixed it. I can see the attachments now. Thank you.
