Firefox 11.0 stopped download PDF files automatically when I click on a link. The download folder is always selected in the preferences.
When I click on a PDF file that would normally cause the download folder to open it, I am rather taken to a blank white page and nothing happens.
I use a Mac OS X 10.6.8.
I recently installed Flash Player to preview an FLV file that I put on my site. I don't remember if the problem started after the installation.
This thread has a workaround solution, which is to "disable the Adobe Acrobat plug-in, NPAPI Version 10.1.3" under Tools/Add-Ons/Plugins

How can I stop under tools appear automatically when you click a tool in the palette?
I must have clicked something or inadvertently pressed a shortcut keyboard or something because a few weeks earlier, the secondary tools on the palette of tools started popping up without the button of the mouse for a second. Now when I click on a tool (the tool rectangular marked for example), the hidden tools (elliptical marked, single line etc..). Please do stop! It's annoying as hell.
I use PS CS5 on Windows 7.
Usually, it takes with the double click time preference system.

to stop multiple spam windows open when I click on a link
All of a sudden when I click on a link all kinds of spam windows open. I have 'Pop-up' windows defined on off... but, they always open... also suddenly online pages will have tons of highlighted words hough, they are links... and when I click on them, thinking that it is a link that's another annoying pop-up window. I checked my "plug-ins" and "add ons" and there is nothing I can find. I use Windows 7 and this problem just started this week. I performed a McAfee scan and found no virus... can help you?
These files are not supposed to be deleted. Quite possibly user.js (thanks for the heads-up jscher2000 on hidden file extensions. A movement bonehead by Microsoft) had a content in it that made all these pop-up windows. The user.js file is not there by default unless you did so it is safe to delete it.
Regarding the .json, those required by Firefox files. More information about the files in the profile folder can be read using the link below

Hello!!!
Is it possible to create a folder that can hide files automatically, when they are copied in it? I mean how to program a folder so that everything that he would automatically become hidden? I would be very grateful...
Is it possible to create a folder that can hide files automatically, when they are copied in it?
Yes. A sort of roundabout.
For this example, create a folder on your C drive named HideTest.
Download http://winsupport.org/utilities/freedos-choice.html Choice.Exe (click on the link to download the utility program near the bottom of the page. "And save it in the C:\HideTest folder).
Open Notepad and then copy and paste the following text in it:
Off @Echo
: All
Set FilesToHide = No.: GoToDir
C:
cd\HideTest: Top
CLS
IF FilesToHide %! Is Yes! Attrib *. * + H: Choice
Choice.Exe /c:YN t:Y, 30 are looking for files to hide
If ErrorLevel 2 Goto: exit: MakeList
Dir > TempList.Txt: CheckFiles
Set FilesToHide = No.
Find.Exe "0 file (s)' TempList.Txt
If ErrorLevel 1 Set FilesToHide = Yes
If exist TempList.Txt Del TempList.Txt: Loop
Goto: Top: Output
Set FilesToHide =
If exist TempList.Txt Del TempList.Txt
OutputClick on file, then save under...
Go to C:\HideTest
Name the file Hide.Bat
Click Save
Close Notepad
Open Windows Explorer
Go to C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Start where user_name is your own username.
In the right pane, right click, select New, and then click shortcut.
Click Browse, and then navigate to C:\HideTest and click on Hide.Bat, click Next.
Type a new name or accept the default name and click Finish.
Right-click on the newly created shortcut, and click Properties.
Change the race: from the normal window to reduced.
Click on apply, and then click Ok.
Restart your computer.
Note: In the line above Choice.Exe c:YN t:Y, 30 are looking for files to hide, 30 is the number of seconds it will wait before checking the new files. This can be from 1 to 99.
Edit: Just to satisfy my curiosity, why do you do this?

Since I installed the latest version of the player on my Windows 7 PC, when I click on a link to a PDF file in a Web page I immediately get a save as dialogue box. The behavior of earlier versions of the player was to open the PDF for on-screen reading. How to restore this behavior? I don't see in the preferences (Ctrl-K). Browser is Firefox last. Thanks - Dave

I have Acrobat, how do I block Reader to install automatically when I click on a PDF page? If I let the reader install, I can't change the default program to open PDF files in Acrobat, it is always default to the player. The only way to choose Acrobat as default editor, I uninstall the reader 1.
Drive does not auto install when you click on a PDF file. I think you mean "open". In any case, to set the PDF Viewer, choose Edition > Preferences > General > Set Default PDF Handler.
HTH,

When I click on a link of my emails, that it opens automatically by firefox. I want to disable this feature because I would go back to Chrome. I don't want to uninstall Firefox all together, but I don't want it to be my main browser not more.
Thank youThe only way to have such links open is not Firefox is to define a different browser, the default browser.
This MozillaZine Knowledge Base article shows how to set a different browser like IE as default browser.
See the definition of default browser manually:

Print my pdf files is no longer. After pressing PRINT the 'Print to File' window pops up and I have to press SAVE under to go to the next step. Once the pdf file is saved it is therefore more a pdf but a PRN file. An error message appears when I try to print the PRN file. I need to be able to print my original pdf files. Please notify.
Looks like you somehow accidentally active the option print to file in the Advanced Options print dialogue. Uncheck that and this problem should go away.

Hello! I have created a fillable pdf file. When I send the completed forms and try to open on my Iphone, I don't see the filled in information. I don't see empty shaded areas. I have Adobe Reader on my Iphone. Should I have a different program? Am I missing a step of creation / fill in the form to fill out? Thank you!
Hi Carol,.
Thanks for sharing your PDF form with us!
I opened the attachment PDF in Apple Mail, used the iOS feature "open in" (or "copy in") to open it in Acrobat Reader for iOS and filled in one of the text fields. I found no problems with your PDF form.
What is the version of Acrobat Reader for iOS that you have on your iPhone?
Could you pass a glance "Open of Mail" section in the following FAQ document once again to make sure that you open a PDF document in Acrobat Reader for iOS (not in other Apple iOS applications)?
