Internet Explorer and Acrobat
Hello all,
I apologize if this topic has already been discussed, but I have a problem in IE when I click a URL that links to a pdf document.
I have acrobat reader 8 installed, and I also have Adobe Acrobat installed on my PC. When I click links on web sites that link to PDFs, IE tries to open the document in Acrobat 6 rather than open the document in Reader 8 inside of an IE window.
I changed the preferences inside of Reader 8 to open in IE, and I also changed the "Open With" settings to open ALL PDFs in Acrobat Reader 8, but I still can't get my PDFs to open in IE when the URL is clicked.
If anybody has the remedy please share... this happened once I installed Acrobat 6 a few weeks ago.
Thanks all,
DeShon
Adobe doesn't recommend running both products for reasons that you are
seeing. If you want it to open in Reader, you can try opening reader first.

Internet Explorer and FireFox do not support Go To A Page View links
Internet Explorer and FireFox do not support Go To A Page View links between PDFs created with Acrobat 8 Professional. Safari does support the links. Similar problem on both PC and Mac.
Two possible errors occur: (1) the error message “page not found”; or (2) nothing at all happens – the reader does not leave the page.
Do you have any suggestions?Check the target field in the Firefox desktop shortcut and make sure that you do not start Firefox with the -no-remote switch or have set the environment variable MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1 (Control Panel > System > Advanced > Environment variables).
Always make sure to start at least the default profile without the -no-remote command line switch.
If you need to have more than one profile open at the same time then start subsequent instances with the -no-remote command line switch.
You can not send links from other programs to a Firefox instance that is started with the -no-remote switch.
In such a case you need to drag links in a Firefox window or paste the link in the location bar. -

You can try if it works if you disable OOPP (Out-Of-Process-Plugins) for Flash
You can set the prefs dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.* to false on the about:config page to disable the plugin-container process.
dom.ipc.plugins.enabled (currently false by default)
dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.npswf32.dll (Flash)
To open the ''about:config'' page, type '''about:config''' in the location (address) bar and press the Enter key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. -

Question
I can no longer send or respond to email from my Firefox browser. I closed and sent from Internet explorer and it works fine. What changed? The only thing different this morning, I downloaded Adobe uprade?I had this hotmail issue myself a while back. I Googled, scanned MS website, scanned MSN website, visited forums, couldn't figure it out. I tried Firefox and Opera and even changed the Opera mask setting from Opera to Internet Explorer. Nothing worked. My best guess was that I was signing on (with the new MSN Live as opposed to MSN Hotmail - the OLD interface) with the "Remember me on this computer?" box checked. I now make sure it is un-checked (which is not the default) and hotmail lets me in.
Not exactly sure if that is the real remedy, but thot I'd throw the story your way just in case... -
Recently when I try to play a video on Firefox I get the same message that I need to download the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. At least 5 times I have downloaded Adobe Flash Player 11 Active X and Adobe Flash Player Plugin 64 bit. Problem is that even though I have the latest version I still get the same message when I try to watch videos on Firefox. The frustrating thing is I can watch videos on Internet Explorer and Google Chrome as well as on Safari. How does that make sense?
Today, I upgraded to Firefox 10.0.2 (x86eng-us) hoping that would enable me to watch video on Firefox but it made no difference either. I would rather use Firefox as my default browser but if I can't get help so I can view video on it I will be forced to use another browser.Hi arpriltime,
Have you looked at our [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-crashes-or-flash-plugin-crashes Flash plugin troubleshooting section]? There is a lot of useful information in there that should help you get to the bottom of your issue.
Hopefully this helps! -

If you look at this page in Firefox, http://www.vpi-corp.com/Empower-Demo/index-iframe.asp, you will see that the html portion of the page loads, and if you right click in the white area in the middle, the Flash is present as well. I can view this page correctly in Internet Explorer and Chrome. I have tried to export the movie as far back as Flash 7.0, but will not resolve. I have also been able to see this video for a while in Firefox, but then mysteriously went away. Any help would be appreciated. I suspect some patch to the programming on this page will be necessary.
That f4v file is send as text/plain, maybe that is causing it

web site is stampworld.com firefox saved an incorrect username and would not let me change it.. i went into password under tools and deleted the entry for this web site.. it no longer autoenters the wrong id or autoenters a pass word but still does not let me log on.. I use the correct id and when i enter the password and click log in the page flickers and the password field clears but will not log me in. id and password works perfectly on internet explorer and my ipad.
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
Then try reloading the page and logging in again. Does that help? -

mostly web sites are not open in internet explorer and other web browsers in my laptop.
Rob,
Many thanks for your reply. It is appreciated greatly. I have added text against each of the points that you raise.
troubleshooting Addons is somewhat complex.....as from this side we do not know which addon may be causing the problem, so the
only recourse is to disable the types of addons that commonly cause problems in IE (for security and usablility reasons some older addons that you may have used previously with IE8/XP are no longer compatible with newer versions of IE that you are now using)....
The following instructions will stop your Toolbar and Browser Helper addons from loading in IE.
Start>Control Panel>Internet Options>Advanced tab,
uncheck "enable third-party browser extensions".
close any open IE windows and restart IE for the changes to take effect.
[GotaQ: Yes, did this but the problem then is that IE won’t open for me. There is no icon in the start menu or task bar
and routes such as using a command prompt or ‘run’ instruction don’t work. When I try this I get a window on screen that flickers for a bit and then disappears.]
Alternatively, your problem with keyboard input is most likely being caused by a form filling addon or a finger print reader
addon? Note: some addons like the Google toolbar have multiple features like form filling, you can disable the GTB's form filling features from its settings dialog (click the 'spanner' icon on the toolbar)
Use Tools>Manage Addons>Show all addons to locate any such addons and use the Addons Manager to disable them. (close and
reopen any open IE windows for the full changes to take effect).
[GotaQ: I tried disabling all of the add-ons in Google Chrome and the key-stroke mapping problem persisted, unfortunately!] -
Flash Player Freezing and Crashing Internet explorer and Google Chrome
Hello,
I have a dell xps 16 running on i7, windows 7 home premium 64 bit, 4gb ram, 500gb hdd. For at least a year i have been having problems viewing sites that use flash player such as youtube, and facebook. I orginally thought my anti virus was the problem because when ever I uninstalled it the flash began to work. I switched anti-virus programs about 3 times go from mcafee to kaspersky to avg 9.0 full...and it still would freeze up on me. Now it has been 2 weeks since I uninstalled avg 9.0 and now it has started freezing up my internet explorer and chrome when ever i go to youtube or facebook. Also for some strange reasion it also is making some of my programs like pinnacle studios 14, itunes, and window media player unresponsive. Currently I have taken flash out of my computer. And i have to use my ipad to view youtube videos..but i still can not view flash. I have heard this has happended to many people on mulitple o.s. , Please help. I have tried reinstalling it and it says that instalation failed evertime. Ive also tried reinstalling my os with no success. I ve tried reseting my browsers and reinstalling them....no success.Hi a, I wonder what happened since it was working on 7/21/10. Then after you Installed AVG9 you started having problems, even after disabling the AVG add ons, etc.
You have had this freezing issue for awhile and I don't know what is causing it, although cleaning up McAfee certainly helped and the Re-Install of Flash Player.
I think the first thing you should do is go to the Kaspersky website and find out if there is an Uninstaller to use and use it if there is. Then I would go to AVG 9 and do the same. Then Reboot after using each one. That way you will have had a Clean Uninstall of both of them.
Then go to Microsoft and Install Windows Defender. That way you would have some protection and that along with the Windows Firewall will help until we see what is causing this freezing and then you can Install AVG again.
Also these: Dellweb cam central, informational alerts, dell data safe online, oovoo, fastaccess.. I wonder if any or a combination are conflicting. Have you had these for sometime or were any added about the time you started having issues? I am not familiar with them, but if they are in your system tray, I would guess they use Flash? I would try to disable them all at once, try your websites, especially youtube. If you have no problem, enable only one of those and test youtube again. Then enable another one and so on and if any are conflicting, you will be able to find the one.
Thanks

The new flash player update crashes internet explorer and firefox
The new flash player update crashes internet explorer and firefox, please send a new release to fix the problem ASAP!
ok here's more mystery. i just uninstalled and reinstalled flash player using the adobe uninstaller and rebooting after each step. aqlso installed latest java. i started looking at videos and here are the ones that worked: you tube
imdb
hulu
ebaumsworld
here are the ones that didn't work: yahoo
msn
reuters
here are the ones that partially worked: the blaze (works on videos that originate from you tube, but not from news stories)
bing (work on videos from their video section - entertainment type, but not from news videos)
the common thing here seems to be that news type videos crash and entertainment type don't. also videos seem more likely to crash on internet portals like yahoo -
I use GoDaddy's webmail service, when I open an email that has several paragraphs the spaces between them are double, sometimes triple, spaced; this is apparent in Internet Explorer and Chrome
