I once had a similar problem, which was resolved when I installed the 'PDF Browser Plugin' (http://www.schubert-it.com/pluginpdf/). Though I'm on PPC – I don't know whether that plugin works on Intel machines.
it's ppc only. however, i had disabled rendering pdf within safari on the ppc-machine but 'typeset & view' was not affected.
In any case, this may be relevant. Can you view PDFs in a Safari window, say?
it's interesting: i enabled this feature in acrobat (with safari no showing pdf within its window) - when doing 'typeset & view' i still get a blank window with the spinning symbol in the top right corner but this time with the acrobat-icon in the center.
i suppose your question points into the right direction but i still don't know what's going on.
thanks!
best, christoph
