Firefox doesn't open PDF - I tried most of the help topic, nothing has worked
For a week or more, FireFox wasn't able to open pdf files in the browser. The page is empty, nothing happens. Im still able to click with the right button on a pdf file and make a backup action if.
Ive read several other subjects and tried some things like change the preferences on what program should open the pdf file, or how it must be open (or rather save as). None of them worked.
One solution, I have not tried, that might work, but should be my last resort, would be to uninstall and reinstall FF.
We hope to see if anyone has a tip about thow to change this.
Note: there is no if long I updated Adobe version (v2015), which is actually named "Adobe Acrobat Reader DC" now.

You can create a new Firefox profile? See https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Managing-profiles#w_starting-the-profile-manager
If it does not either, you could drag Firefox out of the Applications folder and in the trash, then download a new copy of mozilla.org/firefox/new and reinstall.

I tried to download an extension for Firefox and after that it just stopped working, no response. I tried to re - install the browser, deleting files and profiles. Nothing has worked. I can not access the Profile Manager to be * sad face *.
It is possible that your security (firewall, antivirus) software blocks or limit Firefox or the process of plugin-container without you inform, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.
Delete all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container in the permissions list in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

I am more able to synchronize Itunes using the USB between WIN 10 PC and Iphone 6. I've never had a problem until I recently installed the latest updates of ITunes on my PC and the phone. Win 10 Itunes version 12.3.3.17 Iphone IOS 9.3.1. Sorry that I wasn't able to thin Iphone Itunes version however was informed after checking the updates that I was using more current. I tried most of the solutions found under Apple support, including the abolition of the lockdown on my PC Itunes folder as recommended. Hoping someone has a solution. Very frustrating when something worked very well and no longer works after installing the latest updates.

I bought Photoshop elements & elements of Prime Minister to Best Buy 2 years. Finally opened and I tried to get the serial number online by using the identity card, but said website code is not valid. Called Best Buy, they said that adobe should have canceled activation because it has not been installed in a timely. How can I get a serial number for installation?

Work your way through this document in the end, step by step, and finally try to start a chat session. I hope that Adobe will straighten this out for you.

my toolbar (for the PDF edition) does not appear in a newly opened PDF file. What is the problem?
Hi Joanne,
If you are unable to display the toolbar by choosing View > show/hide > elements elements toolbar, please send along a screenshot of what you see. (And just double check that you open your PDF files in Acrobat and not player - that is a mistake that I make here and there).
Best,

I have the same problem that
https://support.Mozilla.org/he/questions/985552#question-reply
I tried everything I could find online. Uninstall and reinstall. tried even completely uninstall, leaving the data in my profile (I save him in chrome).
Nothing has worked. the firefox.exe process appears in the Manager of tasks for 3 seconds and disappeared.
Finally I downgrade to FF26 - an unofficial version on the web and not my locale.
You must provide an option to download the old versions.
V27 is too faulty. I'm sorry.

Last night, my system was still using Firefox 3.5.8. I played Farmville on Facebook and everything worked well. This morning, I connect to my computer and find that I upgraded to Firefox 3.6. I tried to play Farmville all morning and Adobe Flash Player continues to break. I tried to update Flash Player. I tried to restart the computer. Nothing works.
URL of affected sites
Another potential cause of this problem is that the lock timeout is set too low:
- Select the address bar of Firefox (click or press CTRL + L)
- Type of topic: config and press enter
- Click on I'll be careful, I promise!
- in the filter box, type dom.ipc.plugins.timeoutSecs
- Double-click the setting and change the number.
The default number is 10, for a default timeout of 10 seconds. Some games Flash can be slow and requires a higher setting. I would recommend to change that to 20 if you have problems with this.
In addition, it would really help if people who encounter this problem let us know what games Flash is slow - and as soon as they are slow. Thank you!

and read this information to microsoft:
Error message when you run Windows Defender: «Error 0x800106ba»
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/931849
and if you need to change startup programs read this information on the other methods of doing it without using defender
using msconfig read this tutorial:

Here's how to use MSCONFIG in Windows Vista to disable some unnecessary programs that load automatically at startup

I have a version of Acrobat Reader DC on MacBook Pro, but whenever firefox tried to open the pdf file, it asks me to install Adobe Acrbat NPAPI plugin and when I allow / remember, it gives me just white screen.
All results of the research suggest that I fixed it by going to the preferences of Firefox, Application tab, search PDF or Portable Document, Content Type and select the NPAPI plugin from Adobe Acrobat. BUT my PDF search returns nothing.
All I have is Adobe Acrbat FDF document,

I use Firefox for several years on my G5 iMAC, running MAC OS 10.5.8. This morning, Firefox does not open. Tried to open it from the icon in the Applications folder, but does not always. Safari opens without difficulty. Tried to download Firefox again, thinking a file might have been corrupted, but new version is not compatible with my hardware of desktop computers. I find a compatible version of Firefox? My NAV for MAC security software is not interfering.

Acrobat Reader 11 closes immediately, doesn't open PDF
Just reformat mioy computer and upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate, now I can't open PDF - reader closes immediately - does not open the PDF file at all. I can't even open XI player by itself. I tried to uninstall and roll back to Player 10... same result. Uninstalled and installed the 9.0 version. Same result. I have not yet installed XI, but still failed to open the PDF. I bought and intalled Office 2013 when I replayed. Nothing is on my computer again except Avast antivirus and firewall, Skype, IE 10 and google chrome. Any ideas?
