FF25 downloads csv files as text instead of csv - causes problems I have reset my profile, but it still the same problem. Fix?

I have a csv file that I download once a week and load into excel. Yesterday FF25 decides that the csv file is a text file (it is not) and converts everything to text. This is a new and unwelcome problem. To my horror, I was forced to try opening in IE where it worked just fine.
The FF open screen has
filename.csv
which is: text document
from https://companyName.com

This means that the server sends the file as text/plain (this may have changed if it didn't happen before).<br />
Firefox always opens a file send as text/plain in a browser tab.<br />
You can right-click the link and choose "Save Link As" to save the file or use "Save Page As" if the file opens in a tab.

    Sounds like something has been added into the Reader folder. I would recommend uninstalling, running http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html, removing any left over parts of the Reader folder (this might have been the problem), reboot, and reinstall. Hopefully that solves the problem. For future question about Reader, you should consider asking in the Reader forum, this is not it.

  • OSX 10.5.4: Still the same problems with Adobe CS3 files

    I updated to OS X 10.5.4 on a latest generation 24" iMac with Adobe CS3 on it. This is the only Mac with 10.5 installed in a publishing company with 10 Macs, all with Adobe CS3 and all working always with files on the same file server. The other 9 Macs have OS X 10.4 installed.
    The iMac with 10.5 had massive problems with CS3 files since OS X 10.5.2 - frequently existing Photoshop files disappeared from the server after the "Save" command, frequently "Save As" was not possible in Photoshop, sometimes Indesign crashed when files were getting saved on the server - none of this is happening on the other Macs with OS X 10.4.
    On the first couple of days with 10.5.4 at least in Photoshop exactly the same problems: Existing files disappear from the server after the "Save" command, "Save As" is often times not possible.
    It's a shame!

    Hi
    Why don't you try updating with the larger installer, the combo updater. The combo updater is generally more helpful when troubleshooting a problem.

  • Downloading .7z file as text file instead of archive

    Firefox has problem downloading .7z file. I read on other post that this is server side related but if I try to download the same file using Internet Explorer it download fine. So there has to be something that can be done to fix this problem.

    Changing the setting for alt click didn't help, I press alt after pasting the link and then press enter, open the file in a new tab but still as plain text. I also tried pressing alt 1 sec after pressing enter but the file still appear as text instead of archive.

    Back up all data.
    Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then launch Safari and test.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • Windows vista system, continuously trying to download a DRM file in Adobe Digital Editions application shows "Error check activation". I have authorized the Fire Wall and still the same.

    windows vista system, continuously trying to download a DRM file in Adobe Digital Editions application shows "Error check activation". I have authorized the Fire Wall and still the same.

    Since Re-activation as suggested by the link above is not working for you, Can you please confirm the following:
    The OperatorURL is reachable. ( you can find the operatorURL from the acsm file by opening it in notepad,etc)
    And Book is still available on the book-store for purchase.
    (If any of first two are not available, you might have to talk to distributor for next action item to get the book. Since you will have record of purchasing the book, (in my opinion) they should provide you the new token for downloading the book)
    And please confirm this that you used the same userID for downloading that you used when you first fulfilled/downloaded the book.
    (If it is the case, then you have to use the correct userID)
    I hope it helps.

  • I just downloaded iOS 6 on my iPhone 4 and now can no longer open internet links that were texted to me.  Anyone else having the same problem?

    I just downloaded iOS 6 on my iPhone 4 and now can no longer open internet links that were texted to me.  Anyone else having the same problem or know how to fix this? 

    The SMS links thing is highly annoying. You don't have to copy/paste however. You should see an icon like this: (>) to the right of the text bubble with the link. Tap on that, the in the screen that opens, tap "Visit".
    Alternatively, you can tap twice directly on the link, then hold your finger down after the second tap.
    Still unnecessarily difficult, but not as bad as copy/paste.
    What I don't get is why can't I find any mention of this change or how to fix it (if even possible) elsewhere online?

  • When i download files on MEGA it says that I don't have enough system space but on MEGA i only have file with 128MB and on my disk 120GB, what's wrong?

    i'm trying to download small files like 190MB, together is max.1GB with MEGA. it comes to 100% but then i got a message that i don't have enough system space. on MEGA i have only around 1GB and my disc is at 120GB. i don't know what to do

    Hi copycat667,
    Please see your system resources in order to find out how much space you have left for this MEGA program you are having difficulties with.
    I do not completely understand your question, but I will do my best to answer. If you are downloading files from a website called Mega on Firefox, it may be that the space allocated to the folder it is downloading to is out of space or that there is a limitation on the website how much you can download in a certain time period?

    Mega uses a filesytem api to detect the size left: [http://developer.chrome.com/apps/fileSystem] this may put you in the right direction.

  • Everytime I open Safari it downloads a series of blank.aspx files into my downloads folder. Anyone having the same problem?

    Everytime I open Safari it downloads a series of blank.aspx files into my downloads folder. Anyone having the same problem?

    Has there been a fix for this yet?  I am downloading close to 150 blank aspx files every 15 minutes.  I have tried the fix from Carolyn Samit and the AdBlock seems to be working thus far, but when it is not working it launches Adobe Dreamweaver.  Which is going berzerker.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks to all on this community.
