Accessing online database Science Direct issue this week:
Dear respected user, Elsevier have informed us that there may be problems opening PDF files from ScienceDirect using the latest browsers with the Adobe X plugin. They currently only support Internet Explorer up to version 7. This may cause problems using ScienceDirect on University PCs running Windows 7. Their technical team is aware of this, and have promised to address this issue in the coming weeks. Unfortunately they have not been able to give us a definite timescale for this work.
In the meantime they suggest the following workaround:
If you checked this and setup Adobe in the correct way, but still face this issue, please uninstall and re-install Adobe reader. When saving PDF's, you can also consider to save it on a different location such as network drive.
If user still faced problem to download any pdf file in Science Direct email directly to technical support sginfo@sciencedirect.com
