What action dom i take for this error message "C:\DOCUME~1\user\LOCALS~1\Temp\physics.pdf could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences"?

I get this message when I try to download a pdf file from a website.
"C:\DOCUME~1\user\LOCALS~1\Temp\physics.pdf could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences."
This is a new error. There used to be no problem.

Do you have any setting for MP3 in Tools > Options > Applications ?
You usually need the QuickTime plugin to play MP3 files on Windows because that is the only plugin that supports that file extension if there is no MIME type specified to play the file with another plugin like Windows Media Player or RealPlayer.

    first, you just asked me to use MS file Explorer to see what the properties were.,..and to ask what happened. Yes - that's on my hard drive. The problem I have is opening word files in a DB that is web enabled.....I've used Firefox browser for that, and everything else , for years...... When I look at the Tools, and options on FireFox., as your support page noted.....NOTHING is listed in the Applications tab....hence my note asking for help. The file I need to open is a Word file out on a web enabled DB. It's not on my hard drive - I have to problems opening docs there - but for that, I don't use Firefox

    At first I thought it was a broken file, but then realised it was all MP3s.
    The same MP3 downloads fine in Internet Explorer.
    Thanks.

  • Associated helper application does not exist

    Please bear with me as I'm computer illiterate....
    I'm a new Mac user and I don't even know if my problem is Mac related, Adobe Reader (the application) related or Firefox related....
    It appears I've been opening PDF files with Preview ever since I got my Mac (I didn't realize this until today, but always wondered about why it would not open in my browser) and lately - for some reason - I'm unable to view PDF files and get the message mentioned in the subject line.
    I honestly don't know what to do - I've been struggling with it all day, removing Adobe Reader, re-installing it, etc.
    One thing I did find strange was that my list of Download Actions in Firefox was next to empty. Any ideas as to where I should start looking for the cause of this? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

    BTW I don't care whether I view it in Preview or Adobe Reader - I just really really need to be able to read my mail from work! TIA

  • I cannot download word documents. Error message says assocated helper application does not exist.

    Tried downloading word document from email. error message Associated helper application does not exist

    To open a document you must have installed an Android application for it. The file is downloaded but can be opened with Firefox, but with the specific app from Android.
    Try installing a documents app and for sure it will work.

  • What's the reason for this error message?

    Why am I getting this error message?
    ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.
    at flash.display::DisplayObjectContainer/removeChild()
    at pdresses_fla::MainTimeline/releaseabout()
    script
    stop();
    var imageLoader4:Loader = new Loader();
    var image4:URLRequest = new URLRequest ("img1.jpg");
    imageLoader4.load(image4);
    addChild(imageLoader4);
    imageLoader4.x = 300;
    imageLoader4.y = 30;
    var imageLoader4x:Loader = new Loader();
    main_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, myClickReaction4a);
    function myClickReaction4a (e:MouseEvent):void{
    var image4:URLRequest = new URLRequest("img2.jpg");
    imageLoader4x.load(image4);
    addChild(imageLoader4x);
    imageLoader4x.x = 300;
    imageLoader4x.y = 30;
    back.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, releaseabout4);
    function releaseabout4(evt:MouseEvent):void {
    removeChild(imageLoader4);
    removeChild(imageLoader4x);
    gotoAndPlay(5);

    In your releaseabout4() function you have two removeChild calls. When it's called either imageLoader4 or imageLoader4x is not on stage, and so you get the error. You can use contains to make sure it's in the container before trying to remove it:
    function releaseabout4(evt:MouseEvent):void {
    if(contains(imageLoader4)){
         removeChild(imageLoader4);
    if(contains(imageLoader4x)){
         removeChild(imageLoader4x);
    gotoAndPlay(5);

  • Why am I getting this error message......."Adobe Reader could not open 'SBA 413.pdf' because it is e

    why am I getting this error message when I try to open a PDF file?  Adobe Reader could not open 'SBA 413.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).

    It's difficult for anyone to say how to fix it. Try getting a new copy of it. Did you download it from a web site, as an email attachment, or something else?
    I donwloaded that form from the SBA web site and it worked fine for me. It is an XFA form created in LiveCycle Designer, but those should work fine with the desktop versions of Adobe Reader. So try downloading it: http://www.sba.gov/sites/default/files/SBA%20413_0.pdf
