I cannot down load certain PDFs

I have tried the solutions in the help section but after I type ''about:config' a bunch of choices appear and I cannot find the Filter box to type in "general.useragent' Is there a simple way to fix this? I am unable to down load most of my financial forms for tax returns. Earlier versions of Firefox did not have this problem. Please help
Thanks,
Stewart MacMillan

User agent longer than 128 characters
The user agent is the text that Firefox reports to websites and external programs identifying its version. With some versions of Adobe Acrobat Reader, when Firefox has a user agent that has been modified to be unusually long (over 128 characters) Firefox will crash when loading PDFs.
1.
I am located in USA. Below is the section of the help area I am trying to use to correct the problem. As I explained in original question I am not able to complete these steps. Can not find the Filter Box.
'' In the Location bar, type about:config and press EnterReturn.
* The about:config "This might void your warranty!" warning page may appear. Click I'll be careful, I promise!, to continue to the about:config page.
2. In the Filter box, enter the following: general.useragent. This will show only the preferences that contain the text general.useragent.
3. For each of these preferences that begin with general.useragent, right-clickhold down the Ctrl key while you click on the preference and select Reset. This will return your user agent to the Firefox default. ''

HT5312 How do I find pass word to old email address has I cannot down load any apps as it asks for old pass word

How do I find pass word to my old email address has now I cannot down load any apps because I have changed my email address

That's because apps are DRM protected & tied to the account used to originally obtain them. They cannot be transferred to another iTunes account. You can contact iTunes support, explain the situation, and request they add these apps to the download queue of your new account:

outdated that adobe was no longer supporting it, there fore I got the

Can you try to download the latest AIR runtime from http://get.adobe.com/air/ ? Make sure all applications are closed when you run the installer.

HT3204 i cannot down load itunes on my lap top why?

i cannot download itunes from web, as windows installer keeps blocking it,why please help?

There are lots of volunteers here that love to help. Nobody can do more than guess without a lot more detailed information. Worse, "down load" has come to mean so many things, you are not providing a single clue as to what is not working.
Good luck!

Cannot down load itunes. Had it before but couldnt update so I uninstalled it and removed all the components but I get a message stating the installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file. Then an error message

I cannot download itunes to my pc. I had it on a couple of months back but I could not update the software so i removed everything and tried to reinstall. I get a message that says "The installer has insufficient privaleges to modify this file. Then when I click that off it continues to download and says its complete and ready but when I try to open i get another message "error#7 itunes did not install correctly. Please reinstall. "Which I have tried to do to no avail. Any suggestions?

Many thanks.
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

How do I down load a pdf slideshow to FB?.

How do I download a pdf file to FB?

I am assuming you mean Facebook and by "download" you mean posting to an album? Facebook will not accept pdf files. You could convert the pdfs to an image format (png or jpg) and then upload them that way. Reader cannot make this conversion, but Acrobat and Preview can.

Cannot down load macafee

I moved to bt because my macafee subscription was ending and I thought the bt offer was good value. For three months I have been unable to download macafee, spent hours on the phone to customer support , they have logged on my PC and now agree there is a problem their end and they are looking into it ( the Mcafee team) the one's you cannot speak to . The customer service team level 2/3 just keep telling me they are working on it i and have been told to load avg free or pay and load macafee direct which i know works, as they might never solve the problem. I have also been told I am not the only one having this problem Does anybody know what's going on between bt and macafee and why i cannot Load macafee Thanks

To be honest, it wasn't too bad on my laptop either. The netbook needed switching on 15 minutes before you could reasonably use it though. MSE reduced that time considerably, but it also has a lighter touch so that the computer is quite useable even while the AV is doing its stuff. I like the facility on MSE to limit CPU usage even further if you want.
I was so impressed with MSE that I also replaced McAfee on the laptop with a year to run. No regrets about that more than 6 months later.

How do I down load a PDFs from the web?

ccan anyone help me with this issue?

Hi bdreed51,
Would you provide more information about your problem so that we can help you?
Did you use Safari (the default web browser for iOS) on your iPad/iPhone to try to (a) open a PDF document in Adobe Reader for iOS or (b) download a PDF document to your iPad/iPhone by tapping a link or button in a web page?
Is a PDF document already opened in Safari? What do you see on the screen as a result?

HT201272 so i payed for Babel delux edition, I'm in canada....now its telling me I cannot down load it !!!!!!! not available in Canada???????????????

why???

It may have been taken down due to Apple's new rules regarding in-app purchases. We used to be able to buy movies as well as just queue up free content and Apple would likely require a % of the movie purchase price.
I do hope Shaw sorts this out. The current TV system is awful and the app was much nicer to use. Even if they give us back an app with just the free content available (which should abide by Apple's rules) then it would be better than the current system of nothing.
Alternatively they need to make a MUCH better website for VOD (or exo on demand as they're now re-branding it). I hate the organization by channel and prefer the alphabetic listing of the app.
