Adobe Plugins are not working for Firefox or Explorer 8

HI There,
my firefox and explorer do not open adobe reader files any more.  IN firefox it opens it in a different viewer and when it prints it prints the document as an artifact and the letters are not clear (almost looks like a blurry .jpg).   The plug in is installed but when I go to adobe reader under preferences then internet it says that the program is not available.  I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling acrobat and it still does not work.  I intalled the latest Java thinking that was the issue but still the same.  I can not find a way to delete and reinstall the plugins in Firefox or Explorer.  Are they built into the new Adobe Reader?  

Can you guide me on how to change it to adobe reader as the default.  I can't figure out where this option is.
I have to get access to the computer with the probloem to pull up the error message when trying to open a pdf file in Explorer.  I think it says that it can`t find the program or to try shutting adobe down and try again.

  • Npapi or webkit plugin are not working in firefox

    I have a Webkit plugin and NPAPI plugin. Both work fine in Safari but just would not work in Firefox (Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; en-US; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3) .
    about:plugins shows it as installed but when I try to access it from html page none of the entry points in a code are being called.(None of trace statement are being hit)
    I think Firefox has problem loading those plugins.
    I have similar NPAPI plugin working fine in Windows environment on all browsers, but MAC is giving me this problem.
    Does anyone has any ideas of what could be the problem?
    I even took a BASICPLUGIN sample for MAC and it has the same problem. Anyb
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    Christofer,
    I solved my problem after not getting any responses.....
    Turns out that some of my xcode compilation switches had to be changed, send me your minimal code that I can compile and i will help you finding it......My NSAPI plugin works just great with all mac browsers....in fact it is the same code excatly as i have for windows, just had to rename some files from .cpp to .m so that I could yuse some cocoa objects....

  • Videos are not working in Firefox

    Hey everyone,
    This seems to be a common problem, but videos are not working on Firefox, and not just for YouTube. I have updated Adobe Shockwave and Flash, re-installed Firefox, deleted/created a Firefox profile, started up Firefox in Safe Mode, turned off HTML5, checked if any of my plug-ins are disabled, and none of those have helped.
    When I get on YouTube and click a video, the video itself doesn't even load. On other sites, in the box where the video should be playing, it says "No video with supported format and MIME content can be found." This kind of confuses me because I have updated the Adobe Flash.
    Thoughts? Anything would be appreciated at this point.

    Hello,
    Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
    To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
    #Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
    #Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
    #Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
    # Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. <br/> <br/>[[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] <br/>
    # Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
    # Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
    # Restart Firefox.
    This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
    Does this solve the problem? Let us know.

  • NIK plugins are not working in LR 4

    I have been using the BETA version for some time and I did not see this problem until I installed the released version of LR 4
    The problem is that I cannot edit the images using my plugis from NIK software. ( I bought the complete collection about 3 months ago)
    In the Beta version it was still OK.
    Only the export plugin works (HDR from nik)
    Also when I try to install the plugin again it only shows that it is compatible with LR3.
    I just bought LR4 (since it worked in the BETA version)
    Hope they will fix this soon. I also sent a message to NIK software.
    anyone else has seen this problem
    regards
    Andre
    I use MAC OS-X 10.7.3
    NIK plugins are the latest versions available.

    Windows 7 64-bit SP1 machine here.
    Yesterday, as most of you here, I had this error message with any
    external editor, and I posted a message in this forum. At night, before
    going to bed, I installed an evaluation version of Photoshop Elements
    10. This morning I opened Lightroom and, TADA!, plugins work fine! So
    definitely it is an Adobe problem, LR must be missing some piece of
    software that PSE has; note that I did not open PSE at all after
    installing it yesterday night, so it has added the missing part during
    installation.
    Hope this helps Adobe engineers to solve the problem.

  • Adobe DV is not working for Video out in CS6!

    Adobe DV is not working for Video out in CS6!
    I verified my DV device is working fine with Premier Pro CS6.
    Anybody ever get this to work?

    Stan,
    First, the two audio/video output preferences in Encore CS4 and CS6 have different looks, as seen in the images below.
    But both are going out through DV/Firewire. Premiere Pro CS6 has the same look and settings as Encore CS6 and the Preview goes out to the monitor.
    CS4 -first image and CS6 -second image.

  • Quartz filters are not working (for PDF)

    It seems that quartz filters are not working for me under Mountin Lion. I have tried to export, print, etc everything in Preview, Automator, ColorSync. It simply won't apply the filters to my PDFs.
    Anyone experienced similar issues? Is it a known bug?

    I kinda have the same problem, except its only my custom filters that aren´t working in ColorSynch. The other filters get applied as usual, but I can not change any of the preformed filters within ColorSynch, and the "live update from filter inspector" doesn´t work if I try to apply changes or use my custom filters.
    The custom filters I have, were created prior to my upgrade from snow leopard to moutain lion.
    I´ve understood that there has been multiple problems with the filters in lion ++
    If there isn´t a quick fix to this, does anybody know of any programs I can use to apply filters without having to buy Adobe Pro, my use is not for simply decreasing file size, but mostly for editing colors prior to prinitng. And its  not sufficient to use the preformed filters unfortunately.

  • Alerts are not working for Site collections in a content database

    Hi,
    We have been into a strange issue that alerts are not working for site collections from a particular content database. When user subscribed for the alerts, they are getting mail about their subscription but not after that for any new items/documents added
    or changes happen in the list/document library.
    We have tried with Immediate as well as scheduled alerts both are not working.
    FYI, Alerts for all other site collections from different content database for the same web application are working without any issues.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

  • Adobe products are not recognized in my Internet Explorer 10 on my Win 7 64B professional

    Adobe products are not recognized with my Internet Explorer. I cannot open PDF documents on websites and I cannot play MSN games since Flash Player is not found. I have tried manage add-ons and enable status without success. Can anyone supply detailed information on how to fix this problem?
    C-adobe

    Are you running IE10 in 64-bit mode?  The Adobe Reader plugin is 32-bit, and can only run on a 32-bit browser.
    Regarding Flash Player, do you have ActiveX Filtering enabled?  Disable it.

    // evObj.initEvent( evt, true, false); if I change parameter to evObj.initEvent( evt, true, true); it works fine. the last parameter.
    //see below my piece of code.
    // Emulate a click on a given link

  • Flex 4 scaleGrid properties are not working for me.

    Hello All,
        I'm new to Flex 4. I have used Flex 3. But in flex 4 i'm facing one problem which i'm unable to solve. I have added a backgroundImage for a BorderContainer. Image is getting added but it is not at all scaling. I felt as the properties scaleGridTop, scaleGridBottom, scaleGridRight and scaleGridLeft are not working which was working in flex 3.
    Here is my code
    <s:BorderContainer
                           width="100%" height="100%"
                           backgroundImage="@Embed('/Styles/Images/toolIcons/Top_Bottom_Bar_Sub.png',
                           scaleGridLeft='150', scaleGridRight='650',
                           scaleGridTop='25', scaleGridBottom='26')"/>
    The image to be added is here.
    This image is getting added but it is totally stretched. Not scaling according to the positions i've set.
    Please can anybody help me in resolving this issue...?

    Looks like BorderContainer doesn't respect scaleGrid values.  I have filed a bug for this here: http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-30676

  • Time series functions are not working for fragmented logical table sources?

    If i remove that fragmented logical table sources, then its working fine.
    if any body know the reason, please let me know.
    thanks and regards,
    krishna

    Hi,
    is because the time series function are not supported for the framentation content, see the content of the oracle support:
    The error occurs due to the fact the fragmented data sources are used on some Time series measures. Time series measures (i.e. AGO) are not supported on fragmented data sources.
    Confirmation is documented in the following guide - Creating and Administering the Business Model and Mapping Layer in an Oracle BI Repository > Process of Creating and Administering Dimensions
    Ago or ToDate functionality is not supported on fragmented logical table sources. For more information, refer to “About Time Series Conversion Functions” on page 197.

  • What happened to my bookmarks, and how do I retrieve them. Your instructions are not working for me

    I have Yahoo mail, and recently they changed the format. Ever since then I've had nothing but trouble. At one time I lost my Orange Firefox button which contained the print, and bookmarks ops, among others. One day I lost my button, so I un-then re-installed Firefox. Shortly after that I lost my bookmarks, and have NOT
    been able to retrieve them DISPITE following the instructions. I started a new bookmark list, and then I lost
    it again. Your instructions do not work for me. I even tried re-installing Firefox, but that was a waste of time.
    I really like Firefox, but it seems since Yahoo Mail changed, I've had trouble with it. Sometimes changing something doesn't always work out .................................................If I can't retrieve these bookmarks, I'll just have to change my browser.............................

    These can't get your data back, but will help in the future.
    These add-ons can be a great help by backing up and restoring Firefox
