Why Firefox doesn't open Foxit Reader in its own window?

When you navigate with Frefox, I used to be able to click on a PDF link and Foxit Reader to open the file in a separate window (Foxit). Now no matter what I do, the PDF opens in Firefox in what I assume is a reader of PDF in Firefox.

How canI do this job like her?

Could you try the steps in this article to support and see if they solve the problem: How to disable the built-in PDF Viewer and use another Viewer.

  • Windows Vista won't allow me to open my files in its own window

    I can't get Windows Vista change to allow me to open my files in their own windows. I was not able to do this since I bought this computer a few months ago. I thought I did something wrong, but I follow the directions to the T and it continues to open only the folders in the same window.  Y at - it something I'm doing wrong? I follow the directions for help and check open in its own window and yet it acts as if I do not change it... I apply and ok and press to apply to all the files and still nothing.

    I don't know what are the instructions you followed, so here is a series of instructions on opening the windows, including how open each instance in its separate window: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/91587-open-folder-same-separate-new-window.html.  Read full article and follow ALL these instructions (there are parts you include in your post that are important to make it work - but then again you probably do not understand everything).

    In the meantime, to open a specific folder in a new window, you can right click on the file and click on open rather than explore.  This will open the folder in a new window.  It's an extra step, but it is a workaround until you find the answer (if the above did not answer it).

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • How can I change the folder under Folders options browse to open each folder in its own window?

    No matter how many times I select "Open each folder in the same window", the files still open in a separate window. So I then several windows open in order to view the other subfolders. Also when I select "File Types" tab and I see that the extension of the file types: (folder) and (folder), they both show (none), which I guess is OK.  So when I click on the "Advanced" tab area 'Actions' watch [find] and [open] with Open being the DEFAULT action. But for Edit or delete buttons are greyed out! So anything that can be changed is the default action is open or find it.

    I just want to be able to open and view the folders in the same window! Do you think I have to reinstall XP Home Edition, running around SP3?

  • Why Firefox doesn't open the printer dialog box whenever it starts

    When Firefox opens the printer dialog box opens automatically - why and how can I make sure that he does this.
    This never used to happen on previous versions of firefox

    Some web pages automatically shows the print dialog box. In particular, the pages Web sites have specially formatted for printing can do.

    Restore you tabs that you have opened previously, or commissioning with your home page (s)? I suspect that one of them generates the dialog box. You can view by clicking on each of them and reload the page to see if it's on this page.

  • Is it possible to add a button that will open an attachment to a specific page in its own window?

    I have two PDFs generated from Framemaker.

    PDF1 is a user's guide.

    PDF2 is a test plan document.

    I want to include the possibility for the reader in PDF2, open the guide of the user to a specific page (topic) if they need to access detailed information about a test item.

    In order to ensure that the PDF2 player has the user's guide, I thought I want to implement an attachment under PDF2 PDF1.

    By browsing the ' net, I found that I can add a 'link' (rectangular clickable area) on PDF2 which, when clicked, will open PDF1 in its own window to a specified page number. GREAT!

    But... what I want to do is to place a * key * on the PDF2 (with a tag) who will perform this task (open PDF1 to a specified page in its own window). However, I am getting lost and does not know how to do this (or if this can be done at all).

    Pointers would be appreciated :-)

    Thank you.

    John

    Then... I thought about it (of course, * after * post the question.) Sigh) and given that the post is now here forever, I thought I should share my solution, for what it's worth.

    In PDF2, with PDF1 included as an attachment:

    1. Rich Media > Add button.
    2. Button to place on the page.
    3. Open the properties of the button (double click or right click > properties).
    4. Click the Actions tab.
    5. Select the Action, select go to a page view.
    6. Click Add...
      (This opens her create go to view dialog box.)
    7. Double-click on the attachment (PDF1).
    8. In the attachment, scroll to the desired page.
    9. In create go to view dialog box, click on connect.
    10. In the Properties dialog box, click Close.
    11. Reopen the Properties dialog box, go to the Actions.
    12. In the action pane, click "Go to a page in another document" (the action that I had set earlier).
    13. Click on change.
    14. In the target Document section, select 'New window' field.
    15. Click OK.
    16. Click Close.

  • Why Firefox tries to open the PDF with Acrobat 8 when I set properties using Reader 9.1?

    If I click on a link in a PDF file from Firefox 3.6.10 he's trying to open it with Acrobat 8 and breaks down, while if I double-click on a folder it opens properly with Reader 9.1

    If I try to open with Acrobat 8 for the record, he does not either, but why Firefox does not use the default program?

    Go to tools | Options | Applications. The first 4 entries focus on Adobe. Make sure that the association is your version 9.1. If this is not the case, click on the association that shows. You will get a triangle pointing downwards to the right. Click it, and then check if 9.1 is displayed. If so, select it. Do the same for the other elements of Adobe.

    You can also check the "Folder Options" in the control panel. In the tab "File Types", you will find all file extensions and the programs with which they are associated. Scroll to the PDF extension and make sure that it is associated with a "Document of Adobe Acrobat. If this is not the case, click the < button > and find adobe in the programs list.

    Just to let you know, Adobe Reader is now up to version 9.4. You can go to the Adobe website to download the latest version.

  • Why firefox can not open with the default profile. It should be renamed?

    trying to install "malwarebytes" for extra protection, the Norton toolbar on firefox has been reduced in size by losing my option "Vault". This prompted reinstalling on securities Notion which then prevented the opening of firefox. Internet Explore works well but I use firefox for years so why change. Firefox won't open (even after being uninstalled and downloaded and reinstalled. The message 'your firefox profile cannot be loaded, etc.' following the instructions of your forum, I locate a profile with the word 'profile' embedded file. The word "profile" in the flow path is preceded by a weird name (such as a foreign name). Path =
    'C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\bzjajhor.default-1419035389504 '. This file needs to be renamed and can they?

    Please help me to go back to firefox. Thank you

    Do not rename a profile folder.
    It seems that there is a problem with the profiles.ini.

    See:

    This is usually caused by a problem with the file profiles.ini and the profile marked as the default value = 1 in this file is no longer present on the hard drive.

    • Windows: %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\
      C:\Users\ < user > < profile > \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\.
    • Linux: ~/.mozilla/firefox/
    • Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox /.

    You can use one of them to make Firefox/reuse to create a new default profile:

    • Remove the profiles.ini file to force Firefox to create a new default profile
    • Use the Profile Manager to create a new profile
      Use "Choose a folder" when you create a new profile to select the location of a lost profile and recover this profile

  • 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.

  • Why Firefox doesn't load the JCPenney update web page?

    I just spent an hour on the phone with JCPenney, and then we are cut off. The gal is telling me where things are running on their new website, and I'm telling him that no such thing appears on my page.

    After that, we got cut, I opened Google Chrome just for the heck of it and used my LastPass to open a session for JCPenney. LO & this IS! All these things the gal was trying to tell me about the page - are actually on the page.

    Now why Google Chrome will load the new site of JCPenney as Firefox continues to load the old site?
