Why several download windows pop up when I download a PDF file or other file?
Whenever I try to download a file (PDF, JPG, DOC), which was attached to an email (I use Outlook WebMail) the document will download very well HOWEVER eight (8!) or more to download windows pop up as if I tried to download that file eight times (or more).
So I 'X' by each window after downloading a file. This is the same file on each pop-up window.
Since it is a new problem, I tried to turn off the computer and put back in operation but failed.
Firefox 26.0
Any help... PLEASE, I BEG YOU!
Hello
Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.
(If you use it, switch to the default theme).
- Under Windows, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
- On Mac, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key option key when starting Firefox.
- Under Linux, you can open Firefox 4.0 + with leaving Firefox then go to your Terminal and running Safe Mode: firefox-safe-mode (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)
- Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.
Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "
If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .
To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.
When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. It might help others who have the same problem.
Thank you.

I see that you have Windows XP Home Edition, Service Pack 3 level. Ok. :-)Go to this page:Click the custom button. Wait a bit...If you have in fact all your patches security post-SP3 installed, then you will see this message:High priority updates
No priority updates for your computer are available. To select other updates, use the options on the left.
Can you confirm?In addition, do NOT choose to install the optional updates that are available! They are rarely necessary, and they often cause problems!Also, you need to let us know if you have the version the recent Adobe Reader or not. As I mentioned earlier, the current version is 10.1.3. If you run Adobe Reader and select "about...". "in the drop-down Help menu, you can see which version you are using.That being said...There has been a lot of recent reports with people having all kinds of problems with Adobe Reader. My recommendation is to uninstall, and then run the tool to remove here:Then, install a free PDF reader senior (and less of a problem): -

in Acrobat 8 Standard advanced editing tool is grayed out in Windows 7 and Windows 10 but works with the same pdf file in Windows XP Professional. Why?
Perhaps because Acrobat 8 is not compatible with Windows 7 or 10.

When I download a pdf file, I used to be asked if I wanted to open or save. Now, the file is saved only. It's really annoying, because the file name of the saved file does not identify it somehow, and I find myself with a bunch of unknown files on the desktop. How can I go back to being able to view the file when it is downloaded (and so to save it on the spot with an understandable file and to an appropriate folder name)?
I know you hate Adobe, but this parameter does not have to do with Adobe at all, in fact... This is an internal setting of Firefox.
Anyway, change go to Tools - Options - Applications and enter "pdf" in the filter field. Change the action associated with this type of file to do what you want, in this case always 'ask '.

Download a pdf file, the file name contains a space in the middle of the file. The name showing on the 'Save' popup is first letters up to space. Works fine on IE8. For example, a file named "old snail_12345.pdf" would show only 'old' (ignore the "s"). This is on Firefox 30.0, WinXP Pro.
Apparently, there is an extension to work around this problem. I have not tried myself. See:
