Firefox on Ubuntu Linux does not open the PFD files (blank tab opens)

Firefox running on Linux (Ubuntu 13.04).
When I click on any file (or attachment) which is in PDF format, Firefox opens a blank tab and display content.
I saw a similar question for Apple computers, but it does not work under Linux and neither does Windows patches. It only started with the last udate to Firefox.
Unfortunately, like most people, I did the stupid thing and update, then went nuts loading of modules so it could be an add-on and not only the update.
The same problem occurs on thre PC (AMD and Intel) - one on the Mint and the rest on Ubuntu

That's all,

We are pleased to see that you solved it yourself.

    If this happens again, you can try basic steps as for the problems with web pages:

    Reload Web pages and ignore the cache to refresh potentially stale or corrupt.

    • Hold down the SHIFT key and click the Reload button
    • Press 'Ctrl + F5' or 'Ctrl + Shift + R' (Windows, Linux)
    • Press 'Command + shift + R' (Mac)

    Clear the cache and cookies from Web sites that cause problems.

    "Clear the Cache":

    • Firefox/tools > Options > advanced > network > content caching Web: 'clear now '.

    'Delete Cookies' sites causing problems:

    • Firefox/tools > Options > privacy > Cookies: "show the Cookies".

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

  • Combine files to a single PDF does not recognize the .ai files. If this happens?

    Im working with .ai files and I was wondering if I were to convert before a meet in a single PDF file? When I "Combine files into a single PDF" the finder window does not display the .ai files. I was wondering if that is supposed to happen? It is absolutely necessary first convert them to PDF format?

    You can always store as .ai files and should. But create a PDF file for the feature of the combine. Just to be sure, have you tried to open a .ai file in Acrobat (not combine) and doing a job? I do not suspect. If this isn't the case, then it is clear that you must first create the PDF file for the graphic illustrator. Acrobat cannot convert automatically all types of files as PDF documents, but only selected application files. I'm not sure that the illustrator files are a selected application. You seem to assume that Acrobat should be able to open any file and it is not the case.

  • I bought a Canon 70 d. Photoshop CS5 extended does not load the CR2 files. I installed Camera Raw 0.2. Help

    I bought a Canon 70 d. Photoshop CS5 extended does not load the CR2 files. I installed Camera Raw 0.2. Help

    Photoshop CS5 is only compatible with Camera Raw to version 6.7. Photoshop CS5 is is no longer updated by Adobe. The best way to have the latest version of Photoshop is to his scribe for the package of creative photography of cloud. This would have the latest version of Photoshop and Lightroom. You will receive updates of these two programs through the creative cloud.

    If you don't want to upgrade your Photoshop you can download and use the DNG Converter last to create digital copies of (DNG) negatives of your raw images. You would be able to use these files with the software you already have. But you won't receive updates for the software you are currently using. Your new device photo, the 70 d, requires camera Raw 8.2 which is only compatible with Photoshop CS6. Camera Raw 9.2 is only compatible with Photoshop CC 2015, which is only available through the creative cloud. You might want to consider the purchase of 14 Photoshop elements as a complementary program to what you use.

  • 6 Lightroom does not recognize the raw files of Nikon D800

    I have a nikon D800 and Lightroom does not recognize the raw files yet of this camera.  I've updated the LR software to 6.1.1 yet still cannot import files.

    Thank you

    The D800 has been supported since Lightroom 4.1.

    You use an earlier version of the Nikon software to transfer files from camera to computer? Older versions are known to make Raw files unreadable by Adobe software.

    Try to download a version update of Nikon. Or use a different card for example reader method.

  • Signature App, number of Folios error does not match the main file Folio

    Hi all;

    I have a standalone application of 250 pages that I'm trying to compile for the Apple Store. I've read through the forums and enabled "AppBuilderLoggingEnabled.cfg" in my home directory of the user to discuss the issue. Here is an excerpt of the newspaper which has been created which, to me, shows why the app is not signed.

    I deleted special characters in the article titles and rebuilt the app only to deal with the same error. I have advanced and created a new AppID in the portal to Apple developers, created new files available, and the error remains. I am now to create a new folio and import the items into the new folio to see if that will solve the problem of "number of folios does not.

    Any help or idea would be amazing. Thanks to you all.

    I created a new folio and all items imported again. After hitting "Create App" for this new folio, to about 10 pages in a 'PDF Export' error stopped the app creation process. I went in InDesign to update the layout for the 10 page to see that the PDF export issue kept me from updating the page layouts as well. Some thing in the InDesign file was not playing nice with the creation of folio, so I created two new InDesign files, deleted the article and built a new article from scratch. I was able to import the new page in a new article to the main folio and click on "Create App" again. This time he had no problems with the creative process. I have synced files available in App Builder and could sign the application code.

    I guess the moral of the story is to double and even triple check each item along the way to make sure there is no problem, is introduced into the process that eventually causes headaches during the phase of distribution of creating applications!

  • Firefox does not load the password files

    Firefox uses two files to load and store passwords:
    signons3.txt and sign. Lite
    The two files are present in the profile and both are filled with relevant information of password. However, the password manager, which is located under Options, remains empty. When I opened the Web pages that require passwords, and which I know for sure that they are in the files of passwords, firefox does not work shall complete them boxes apprioriate. Logical, as the passwords are not loaded in password manager

    Additional information:
    When I now save a password for a Web page, it does not store the information and fills the boxes on the Web page.
    [This problem occurred when setting back the old profile [copy - paste] in the right folder I found through cards help-resolution of problems-show]

    No I have not thought about it.
    Make a copy of the entire profile.
    copy the old information in the newly created profile

    Took an old signons3.txt from backup
    Has taken the last signon.lite that contains all of these passwords
    Both of these placed files [Replace] in the new profiel

    and voila. Everything is back

    > If I understand correctly, the Bluetooth device is on the same chip as the wifi and I should load the ath3k kernel module, but nothing happens.

    You are right, that the BT is integrated with the smart WiFi ATHEROS WB195-HMC
    I have not much experience of Linux but BT and WiFi must be activated by FN + F8 (using Windows)
    Eventually, you need to enable this as well on Linux
