Adobe acrobat won't work in firefox 24

Whenever I click on any .pdf icon all I get is a blank page. Have tried usual avenues such as disabling pop up blockers- etc. No problems if I try to perform this task in IE.
Have had varying issues that have piled up over time with the constant upgrades such as javascript that is "disabled due to possible exploitation", flash shockwave failures, I was a diehard IE fan and former tech desk monkey once upon a time.Lately though, my switch to FIrefox is becoming not so heady any more. How do I fix the PDF issue?

I have a similar problem only on FireFox (currently running 26.0) with WIndows7 PRO 64 bit. On my old XP machine the add-on allows using "Using Adobe Reader in FireFox" as an option for Adobe Acrobat Document and the document opens. In my WIN7 the only option is "ask" or "Use Adobe Reader" (acroread32) and both options then only present me with a download window (document does not open).
Plugin is up to date and this used to work properly prior to Version 24 (I think 23 was the last version it worked properly, but I'm not sure at this point). I even uninstalled and re-installed Acrobat Reader.
Any help would be appreciated.

    why adobe flash 11 does not work with firefox

    Maybe someone can help me with a similar issue.  I am running Windows 8 64 bit, firefox 23.0.1 on a brand new Asus laptop, 3rd gen Intel I7.  I currently have Flas 11.8.x installed and enabled as well as shockwave.  Some pages that seem to use Flash, like Google Play, work just fine.  However, others do no display any content.  They do not display the crash logo (w/ the sad fave lego block),  I get only a blank (white or sometimes black) space.  If I right clock on this space, I get a greyed out option displaying the message "Flash movie not loaded" and an enabled button that read "About Flashplayer 11.8.x". 
    For example, Yahoo Fantasy Football draft room will not load, neither will the flash test video at http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html.  I tooke my computer back to TigerDirect for them to take a look at it, and while the Tech there said he didn't know what to tell me, he also said he was sure it was a software issue.  That being said, my GPU is Nvidia geforce GTX 670MX.
    I have also tried to run Firefox in compatibility mode in WIndows 7 and XP, and in both these instances, with updated flash, I at leas can get a "Flash Has Crashed" graphic in the instances that flash is not displaying. I have also tried loading flash in IE10, Chrome and Opera to the same issues.   If anyone has any help, please let me know.

  • Adobe Reader won't work

    Hello
    I use Windows 7 (64 bit). I've spent a couple of days trying to get Adobe Reader to work. I need version 9.5 or higher in order to fill out an important tax document. When I click on the icon the program will come up for a few seconds and then it disappears by itself. I have repeatedly removed both adobe reader as well as acrobat using both the adober clean up program as well as the windows uninstall program. I have tried re downloading all 3 versions. The same problem continues to happen. I desparately need to find a solution. Thanks.

    Hi again
    I'm afraid I'm not going to be able to help much - even though I feel like
    I've just finished an intensive adobe seminar. So, that said - I'm stuck
    again. Thanks to you I got Adobe Reader 11 loaded and was able to fill out
    and save the tax form as a pdf file. When I get into the the site to file
    the form though I get the following page when I try to open the saved form:
    Please wait...
    If this message is not eventually replaced by the proper contents of the
    document, your PDF
    viewer may not be able to display this type of document.
    You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader for Windows®, Mac, or
    Linux® by
    visiting http://www.adobe.com/go/reader_download.
    For more assistance with Adobe Reader visit
    http://www.adobe.com/go/acrreader.
    So - I'm sort of back to square one - and, I have until midnight est to get
    it figured out. Do you have any ideas?
    Take care,
    Tina

  • Adobe Acrobat XI Pro causes an error when starting it - Adobe Acrobat has stopped working. How do I resolve this?

    I've had Adobe Acrobat XI Pro for some time, but yesterday it stopped working and I started having an 'Adobe Acrobat has stopped working' error. It then tells me to Close the Program.
    How do I resolve this?
    Thanks and regards
    Roxanne

    Thanks Pat. I was able to resolve the problem.
    OS is Windows 7 Pro, Adobe Acrobat Pro 11.0.07.
    I went into the Properties file where I identified that Users only had Read & Execute and Read properties, I changed properties for Everyone to Full Control. That fixed the problem.
    I don't know how the properties got changed to just Read & Execute, but there had been an automatic update the night before.
    Regards

  • I have a user getting an error Adobe Acrobat has stopped working  how do I resolve this?

    Adobe Acrobat XI Pro
    This happens at a variety of times.  Sometimes while scanning sometimes while bookmarking sometimes while adding pages from a file.
    What I have done is made sure the program was up to date, a repair install, updated scanner drivers, replace the scanner with a different model, made sure the workstation was current with MS patches.  Any suggestions would be most welcome.
    Thank you,
    Brad

    Thanks for the reply.  Sorry I wasn't clear the version is XI standard.  And I did check for updates.  The program is current.  Still a few times a day the program will crash and my user will have to start over again on the document she is working on.  Very frustrating for her and me.
    The full error is:
    Adobe Acrobat has stopped working
    A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.  Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.

  • I have Acrobat 9.5 and when I try to create pdf from scanner, it displays an error "Adobe acrobat has stopped working". Is there any way I can use this functionality?

    I have Acrobat 9.5 and when I try to create>pdf from scanner, it displays an error "Adobe acrobat has stopped working". Is there any way I can use this functionality?

    Provide you have Acrobat 9 installed in an OS for which Acrobat 9 is compatible then you can use the functionality.
    As well, you need a scanner connected, powered up, and the software installed. Acrobat 9 "prefers" TWAIN drivers.
    Always visit the scanner vendor's site and download - install the latest greatest software.
    n.b., The Acrobat 9.x product family passed into "End of Support" mid-year 2013.
    As well the Acrobat 9.x product family is not compatible with contemporary OSs.
    Be well...

    I am on a Windows 7 OS attempting to reduce pdf size with my Adobe Acrobat Standard XI & Pro.  The application keeps timing out and  at the Subsetting embedded fonts portion and the application gives "Adobe Acrobat has stopped working" and then closes.  The document is 275 pages.  Is there something I can do to stop this?

    Hi Ricci,
    Since when are you facing this issue? Did you tried system restore to a date before this problem occured.
    Does acrobat stop working when you open this specific pdf file or with any pdf file that you open?

  • Java won't work on Firefox, while it works on Safari on a Mac.

    I have a MacBook Pro and downloaded Firefox 3.6 for it. Now I've realized that Java plugins won't work in Firefox for some reason, while they do work in Safari that came with the Mac. The problem wouldn't be with Java, since it works on Safari.
    The Java-related plug-ins I have installed in Firefox are the Java Embedding Plug-in 0.9.7.3 and Java Plug-in 2 for NPAPI browsers.
    When I go to a page that contains a Java applet, there is no error, the page says it's done loading, and there's a blank spot where an applet is supposed to be.

    Actually, I have both plugins installed in Mac OS X 10.6, verified by entering '''about:plugins''' in the SeaMonkey 2 Location Bar (address bar)
    Java Embedding Plugin 0.9.7.3
    <br>File name: MRJPlugin.plugin
    Java Plug-In 2 for NPAPI Browsers
    <br>File name: JavaPlugin2_NPAPI.plugin
    This is a new iMac computer I just set up last week running OS X 10.6.4 with all current Apple Software Updates. I have SeaMonkey 2 installed on it, but not Firefox.
    I have Java 6 Update 20 ( 1.6.0_20 ) installed, verified by going to the test link in the KB article I posted above,
    http://javatester.org/version.html
    Java 1.6.0_20 (referred to as "Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 2" on the page cor-el linked) should be available from Apple's [http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1338 Software Update] feature.
    Another test link you can try (from about:plugins):
    http://browserspy.dk/java.php
    I think that the Java Embedding plugin is something that Mozilla includes with all its current browsers (Firefox, SeaMonkey, Camino) based on: http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/OSX.html#Java
    ...which links to http://javaplugin.sourceforge.net/

    I just loaded Yosemite on my Mac and now adobe flash won't work in Safari 8.0.4 . Does anyone have a solution ?

    If you can't install or update Flash, follow these instructions.
    If you have installed the latest version of Flash, please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test.
    For a "blocked plug-in" error, see Step 4.
    For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 8.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    Step 1
    You might have to log out or restart the computer before a Flash update takes effect.
    Step 2
    From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data...
    and confirm. Close the window. Then select
               ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced ▹ Delete All...
    In the sheet that opens, check the box marked
              Delete All Site Data and Settings
    then click Delete Data. Close the preference pane.
    Step 3
    If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, log in to YouTube and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
    Step 4
    a. If you get a warning of a "blocked" or "outdated" plug-in, then select the Security tab in the Safari preferences window. In the list of plugins on the left, there should be one—and only one—entry for "Adobe Flash Player," showing the same version number that you installed. Select that entry. On the right there will be a list of websites for which you have specifically allowed Flash, if any. It's normal for the list to be empty. Below that is a menu labeled
              When visiting other websites
    From that menu, select either Allow or Ask.
    b. If you still get the alerts, then go back to the Flash Player preference pane and select the Advanced tab. Click Check Now. Quit and relaunch the browser.
    c. If the alerts still persist, triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
              Services ▹ Open
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open. Inside it, there should be a file named "XProtect.meta.plist". If that file is missing and you know why it's missing, restore it from a backup or copy it from another Mac running the same version of OS X. Otherwise, reinstall OS X.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    Step 5
    In the Safari preferences window, select the Advanced tab and uncheck the box marked
              Stop plug-ins to save power
    Step 6
    Open this folder as in Step 4:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
              Flash Player (failing).plugin
    You may be prompted for your login password.
    Step 7
    Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from the domain "get.adobe.com". Don't click a link from any other website, including this one, because you can't trust links. They may be an attempt to trick you into installing malware masquerading as Flash. Type the address into the browser window. Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
    Step 8
    If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked 
              Allow (or Enable) plug-ins
    Then click the button marked
              Manage Website Settings...
    if present and make sure that the website is not blocked for Flash.
    Step 9
    Select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.

  • Site won't work in FireFox

    Hi Everyone,
    I normally wouldn't ask something like this, but I've tried so many things and can't figure it out.
    A friend sent me her website because it won't work in FireFox, but does in every other browser.
    Here is the site:
    www.milanmoffatt.com/dinnerwithstrangers
    I've looked pretty intensely at it, but I'm not a coding Guru.  I can't see anything that would make it work in Chrome, Safari, Opera, IE but not FireFox.
    It looks like FF just won't recognize the style sheet, but it's being called correctly as far as I know.
    Thanks

    There are some errors in the html shown in the validator here: http://validator.w3.org/
    If it's still not working after repairing them, we can take a closer look.

  • Quicktime won't work on Firefox

    Quicktime 7.1.5 won't work on Firefox 2.0.0.3. Any ideas as to why?
    Thanks!!

    Jesus Christ, how tedious. Can I just revert to a previous Firefox somewhere in the 3.xxx range where everything worked just fine? I am MacBook Pro laptop. Are you sure you're giving me mac instructions and not PC instructions? This looks more like a PC fix than a mac fix. The exact same problem is happening on my girlfriend's mac computers. I may have to go back to Safari which works just fine and plays the MP3s. This is a very bad happenstance if Firefox is so screwy that everyone has to do all the crap listed above just to get an MP3 to play. This is something Firefox should fix instead of having all Firefox users be confronted with such a glitch. Bad Firefox, Bad Firefox!!!!!
