my pdf file icons are now html firefox icons

Question: PC think files PDF is HTML documents even if only I can get him to open in Adobe. I followed the instructions in several of these posts, with the exception of the removal of profiles, but nothing has changed. I still XP, if I followed the path, Control Panel, folder options and go to the tab that indicates the Types of files, then highlight PDF, it is said, you have customized files with PDF extension, to restore these files to their default type (Firefox HTML Document) click on restore. So currently they are open in Adobe, however all the icons are firefox. Every single PDF, not only those who have been downloaded on the net, I created some of these myself with PDF995. I don't want to spoil anything, I changed the way Mozilla handles PDF in tools, options, under the application. I think it is a problem of mozilla because under the Mozilla options, their PDF icon is the icon for mozilla.

Hello Orleanslady, it works when you enter in the Acrobat > edit > Preferences > General & click on the application by default option at the bottom? to reselect it adobe application and confirm this selection...

  • There are many versions I [changed an option] so that PDF files does not open in Firefox. v 42.0, now I have no pdf viewer by default/built-in at all.

    I don't know how long it was, but I decided that I didn't want to use the pdf viewer by default in Firefox at the time, and because things have been very slow in the browser, I disabled the default viewer and set options to ensure that all PDF files that are open outside of the browser and directly in Adobe. I have no memory of what I've done to get there in time.

    Now for c. 42.0 (and 41.0.2, front) when I go to Options > Applications and select one of the "Adobe Acrobat Document" s, my only options are always "ask," "Save the file", or «Use other...» "and there is certainly no option of Firefox Viewer in 'another use. »

    With Adobe Reader latest terms and the fact that they can now push updates when they want, I just * never * use again.

    How to bring back the integrated pdf viewer? I realize there are other pdf viewers and I'm picking through those, but I would still have a browser too.

    Oh, hang on, I missed something. When you go into Options > Application, the content type that you want to change is Portable Document Format (PDF) , which is the standard type application/pdf. (The others being obscure guys like Marlon who are not your problem). Does it work?

  • Downloaded pdf files does not open in firefox

    I have this irritating problem. I need to open pdf files that are already uploaded and stored on my hard drive, so it would be easier to translate their and ect. Either I'm doing wrong, but when I try to do, I always get a regular save/open quickly.

    I tried to paste the url of domain Firefox url (file:///C:/Users/Kaunaus/Desktop/Bakalaurinis/EPFL_TH5664.pdf);
    And on the right, click on PDF-> open with-> Firefox.

    Same command prompt. If I choose to open, it opens with Adobe Reader (not in the Firefox tab), check-in - saves a copy to a specific location.

    All solutions?

    Hello freedomas, you can try the following?

    go in firefox > help > troubleshooting information, click on file/show profile folder and close all firefox windows later. a windows Explorer window should open upwards - in there remove the file named mimetypes.rdf (which stores the actions to handle different types of files) - it will be regenerated the next time you launch the browser.

    I have 9, 1 pages in PDF files that are accessible and the need to combine them into 1 PDF file.  I tried adding, adding and the combine process of PDF files. The file created does not take my changes. The file created is partially accessible, but I have to re - the problems that I had fixed in the unique files. I need suggestions on what else can be done, if any. Using Acrobat pro XI.

    By habit, I tend to combine PDF files in the Page pane by right-clicking thumbnails then 'Insert of Pages'-> 'From File'. For me, this preserves the tags of these two documents, although the tags may have to be moved to the correct location (if I remember correctly the tags for inserted pages are put at the end of the tag structure, regardless of where the pages are inserted), if I put the tags in the document to insert into a container as a Section tag It makes the process easier. Travel set of tags in the right place is the only re-fixing that I remember having to do. What behavior you encounter?

    I bought the CD "The Real Book" which is a html interface that displays PDFs from the CD.  However, whenever there is an upgrade to adobe reader, it ceases to display PDF files and only displays a gray page indicating that an adobe plug-in is necessary.  How can I fix it?  (PDF files are sheet music).

  • Pdf files downloaded are detectable at a 3rd party online?

    If I download the pdf files using Foxfire from a sensitive site can they be intercepted? It is my understanding that Adobe Reader does not offer this protection.

    You would be better to use a https downloads site.

    If it is, for example, a bank statement, it would be a https site and increasing safety.

    If it's terrorist plans sensitive yes they are detectable.

  • When I try to open pdf files, they are converted into speedy.ashx files and I can't open them. What gives?

    The problem is associated with attachments to incoming e-mail. The first time that this has happened, I looked for a solution and has finished installing something called fast. The problem has not resolved itself and I uninstalled the software. Now when I try to read a pdf attachment, the file seems to be converted somehow in a speedy.ashx file and I can't read it.

    Try to rename the file and give it a .pdf file extension.

  • Previews of the Windows Desktop for PDF files icon

    I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate x 64 and use a large number of PDF documents.

    My problem is that only some PDF document files that I leave on my desk display the image thumbnails.
    Others show just a generic Adobe logo and a red rectangle that says PDF.
    It seems random, on 60% images, logos of 40%. I contacted Adobe and sought in several forums, but can't seem to get an answer.

    I know it's just a nuisance, but it bothers me little. (I think it's the same thing in Vista Ultimate x 64)

    Hello Wayne,
    Please contact the Support of Adobe® support with AdobeAcrobat® Professional 9.0 Web.
    I understand that miniature previews for your PDF files do not always see your Microsoft® Windows® Vista® Ultimate Edition
    64-bit operating system.  Thumbnails in Vista are determined by the operating system and
    not by the default program to open the file. Some people have been able to display miniature systematically by previews
    setting the parameters of Visual performance for Vista. For more information on setting these parameters, you will need to
    contact Microsoft or your computer manufacturer. I hope this information helps with your problem.
    If you need help with this problem, update your web folder with all the details, including what measures you have applied
    and error messages that you receive. Alternatively, you can call Technical Support to the (800) 642-3623. We are available from 06:00 to 05:00
    Monday - Friday, Pacific Time.Kind regards, H

    (Yes, good luck with the phone support!)  and I tried to adjust the Visual settings, giving you all the logos of Adobe, or a mix again.

    Thanks for your suggestions.

    Hey, Wayne Claus.

    I found the following on the Forums of Support from Adobe , which implies to me that it is a problem with Adobe and 64-bit operating systems:

    Marin85 on forum.thinkpads.com has found a solution to this problem. Seems that the problem occurs on 64 bit systems. Win 7 32 bit version creates the miniature .pdf automatically with Adobe Pro v9. However, this is not the case with Win 7 x 64. Note that on Vista or XP, but it might be the same number of 32-bit/64-bit.

    If the thumbnails are not be generated automatically, in order to create a thumbnail preview instead of the regular pdf icon, you just browse to a folder containing PDFs OF IN ACROBAT READER and select the 'Tiles' of the 'Open files' window view Acrobat then creates miniature previews for the PDF files in that particular folder.

    I knew that I had seen something on this problem elsewhere and see that it's an Adobe problem needs to be addressed! I found the link when looking for an answer to a different question. See Finally, a fix for the bug to preview PDF in Windows 64-bit by Microsoft MVP & Tech, Ed Bott author.
