Now that I've updated Firefox, when I open a pdf webpage, there's no toolbar with the Adobe save button, print button, etc. It's gone.

Firefox no longer displays the buttons for Adobe functions when I open a webpage with an pdf on it (e.g. a URL that ends in pdf)/ There's no way for me to download them to my laptop. The old version of Firefox automatically showed those buttons. I can't see a toolbar that relates to this. Can you tell me how to get those functions back? Thanks,
Laura

Try to remove the Firefox plist file (org.mozilla.firefox.plist).

Go to "~/Library/Preferences" and remove the plist file for Firefox (org.mozilla.firefox.plist)
You can check for problems with the localstore.rdf file.

    Also do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.<br />
    You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br />
    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

    When I sign in to the Adobe Reader XI (which is the only option that I have to open a pdf document, I will sign in to the Adobe ID sign-in page. After I do this, the "Convert To" box goes "gray" and I am unable to convert the document I have selected.  It was working great for the first week that I used it, but now it doesn't give me the converting option.  I am very frustrated as I have done nothing to change anything, and I was thinking this was so great...now I am just pulling out my hair and do not have the option of calling anyone since no phone numbers are listed. I am VERY busy and do not have time to sit and wait over a half an hour to "chat", which I tried to do yesterday.  All I want to do is very simply, convert pdfs to Word.  I have paid for this and am not getting any help. I am not very savvy when it comes to Adobe this program and Adobe that program...I feel I am being scammed as I do not get simple answers for something that appeared was going to be simple. You can't even call customer service to talk to someone live to help walk you through. 

    Hello Kathie,
    Sorry for the inconvenience that has caused to you.
    Please let me know if you have tried converting any other PDF to word with Reader.
    Alos, please sign up at "https://cloud.acrobat.com/" using your Adobe ID credentials. Click on 'ExportPDF' tab and upload the PDF that you want to convert to Word.
    Let me know if this converts fine.
    Hope to hear from you.
    regards,

  • Right, MacBook Pro 17" early 2011(Built March) and my new OCZ sata III 6G not working, when is Apple going to admit there is a problem with the Intel's 6 Series Chipset. In System Information it says "Link Speed: 6 Gigabit" which is sata III.

    My MacBook Pro 17" early 2011(built March) and my new OCZ sata III 6G are not working together, when is Apple going to admit there is a problem with the Intel's 6 Series Chipset. In System Information it says "Link Speed: 6 Gigabit" which is sata III and in my MacBook Pro it does not work. 
    Now MacBook Pro 17" early 2011 built May onward do not have this problem it was fixed in the Intel's 6 Series Chipset. (So there is a problem). Cam I have my MacBook Pro fixed please.

    After biting the bullet and ordering more RAM, my computer now is working a ton better. So that must have been the main issue. With 8 GB RAM, I can now even run Parallels fluidly (better than my work PC!) where before simple things like logging in to my MBP after reboot could take forever.
    The place I went to had several other people getting RAM upgrades at the same time as me, so between this and other comments I've seen in discussions here and elsewhere on the Internets, I take it to mean that either Apple should bump up the base RAM on its new machines, and/or stop charging so much for additional RAM.
    I refused to believe a Pro machine bought with Lion installed would come with too little RAM for light to medium usage, but it was apparently the case. I'll mark this as a correct answer and hope some other poor soul will come across this thread and be helped by it.

    I have just reformatted my drive and reinstalled creative cloud and lightroom. When i open it, it says there is another version running the catalog and i have to switch to it to fix the problem, but there is no other version on my computer. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Where did you put the LR catalog?
    Did you install the same version of LR, which one?
    OS and version?
    Open the folder where the catalog (*.lrcat) is located. If you see a file with lock in it while LR is not running, delete it.
    Now try to start LR again.

  • In the prior Firefox version when I opened a new tab there would be thumbnails on the blank page below tabs of web sites that I frequented- now the screen is just blank- is there a way to see the thumbnails below again?

    In the prior version of Firefox before I was encouraged to download the newest version... when I would open a new tab: on the blank page below would appear thumbnail versions of web sites I had frequented which was awesome to return to sites without even going to bookmarks. Now when I open a new tab it is just a blank white screen beneath. Is there something I can do to make thumbnails appear again on the screen below when I open a new tab?

    You can change this in Firefox's about:config preferences editor.
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''newtab''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click the '''browser.newtab.url''' preference and enter the desired value:
    ''(i) Page thumbnails (default)''
    about:newtab
    ''(ii) Blank tab''
    about:blank
    ''(iii) Built-in Firefox home page''
    about:home
    ''(iv) Any other page''
    full URL to the page
    Press Ctrl+t to open a new tab and verify that it worked. Fixed?

  • When I open a pdf link I am getting an error "The system cannot find the file specified. " The same link is opened in other browsers.

    I used to open the link" http://supportdocs.sonybiz.net/indexes/pi%5CLFS%5CMay_2004%5C00035186.pdf" in firefox earlier. Now I use version 5.0. Recently I noticed that such links in pdf are not opening with firefox and getting an error that "The system cannot find the file specified. " But the same is opened in other browsers. I do not know whether it is a settings problem or limitation of firefox.
    It is very much helpful if someone can help me in resolving this issue.

    That link has backslashes (%5C) that need to be changed to forward slashes:

  • Why is there no option to go back multiple pages when browsing a website? it is annoying thet there is no option with the back/forward one page button.

    When browsing a fashion or shopping website, you often look at an item, then browse the colour choices, you have to go back multiple pages, before you can look at the next item. Where has the back multiple pages arrow gone?

    To go back (or forward) more than one page, click and hold the mouse button on the back (or forward) button for a few seconds and a list of recently visited sites will show. The down arrow that used to be next to the buttons to view the list was removed to add more space in the toolbar.

  • When I opened up a new tab, I used to get the Speed Dial page. I like that. However, since I updated my AVG anti-virus program, now when I open a new tab, I get the AVG search page. Can I change it back so that I get the Speed Dial?

    In the past, when I opened up a new tab, I used to get the Speed Dial page. I like that. However, since I updated my AVG anti-virus program, now when I open a new tab, I get the AVG search page. Can I change it back so that I get the Speed Dial?

    I had that too. On the bottom right of the AVG search page is a link which leads you to where you can switch it off. This restores normal Speed Dial operation.
    This hijacking has really cheesed me off. I've just downloaded Avast and am going to put it on in place of AVG.

    Question
    Hello from Norway with a bad Englisch.
    You tell me to uppdate Firefox 3.6 on my MAC Air, it is impossible, I get to 1,5 mb than it stops, MAC support tell me that it is not posible to update Firefox when I am on Firefox, tell me hove to update, [email protected]

    about:crashes only lists crashes that you have reported using the [[Mozilla Crash Reporter]] which comes up after a crash. Because there are so many possible reasons for a crash, getting the crash ID really helps volunteers find the cause quicker.
    That doesn't mean we can't help without a crash id. :-) No crashes here, but I'm also on Snow Leopard and using Firefox 3.6.6.
    Are you using Firefox 3.6.6? The most common cause of crashes on Mac is the Flash plugin. Are you using the latest version of Flash? You can check at http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
    Do you remember any specific circumstances about when the crash occurred? What sites you were on?

  • How do I retrieve my old calendar and lists from my iPad now that I've updated it?

    How do I retrieve my old calendar and lists from my iPad now that I've updated it?

    You're almost there. When you look in that Profiles folder, you should see one or more folders with semi-randomized names. The most recent one probably is your last active profile.
    You have a lot of options for how to recover:
    * Restore last bookmarks backup ([[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]])
    * Manually copy over saved password files to your currently active profile folder ([[Recovering important data from an old profile]])
    * Attempt a complete "transplant" of your old settings folder to your new installation of Firefox (e.g., this thread: [https://support.mozilla.org/questions/965036 how to install and migrate info to a new laptop with Win 8])
