it's ppc only. however, i had disabled rendering pdf within safari on  
the ppc-machine but 'typeset & view' was not affected.

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,
