PDF plugin for Firefox

Hi!
I have trouble activating or upgrading to the newest version of Acrobat Reader extension to Firefox. Whenever I try opening a pdf in the browser, I get a message that I don't have the newest version (although the one installed is v.10.1.0.534). In the overview over plug-ins there is a line that this version has vulnerability issues and should be upgraded. If I try to install newest Acrobat version, I just get halfway, then the message that it is already installed. How to proceed from here?
I have Firefox version 18.0.1 and OS is Windows Vista.
Best,
Eszter

Adobe PDF Plugin for Firefox 4

Mac OS X 10.6.7 with Firefox 4.0 / Acrobat X Pro 10.0.3
After installing Firefox 4 I was told that the PDF plug-in was no longer compatible and that Firefox was unable to find an update for the plug-in. I cannot believe this to be true but was unable to locate a new version. When finding a PDF-document in Firefox I would like to open it in the browser without the need to downlad the document. Under Windows the Adobe PDF Plug-In "Adobe Acrobat 10.0.1.434" is compatible and PDF-documents are opened showing (application/pdf-Objekt) in the tab, just as it looked with Firefox 3.6 on the Mac.

Hi, What operating system are you using? Are you Uninstalling the current Flash Player version first?

Firefox PDF Plugin for Mac OS X shows as an unknown plugin, yet I got it through mozilla! What's its latest version?

Firefox Plugin check says:
Firefox PDF Plugin for Mac OS X
Displays PDF documents in the browser. Unknown plugin
yet I got it via Mozilla plugins.
So it's in the Firefox data base. What's the latest version?

Sorry for the delay in getting an answer, but there don't seem to be any advanced level Mac-users helping do support in this forum. <br />
1. Mozilla didn't supply that Firefox PDF Plugin for Mac OSX, it is probably part of your PDF reader program, or maybe it came with your Mac operating system.
2. Lack of Plugin version information is something Mozilla has been working on for that Plugin Check page. The problem with fixing it is that there is no standard among Plugin developers for making the version number of their Mozilla Plugin available for Mozilla to locate and display. If you look at your own '''''More system details...''''' in your original posting, you can see the problems Mozilla faces when trying to fix the Plugin Check service. Eight Plugins recognized by this forums software and only the last 2 in the listing reveal the plugin version number to a website - Silverlight and Flash.<br />

PDF viewer for Firefox 4.0b7

I know that the Firefox PDF Plugin for Mac OS still doesn't work for the newer versions of 4.0b. I want to know if this problem bothered anyone enough so that they went and found a workaround of some sort till the PDF plugin does come out. Also the Google Docs reader doesn't do me any good so that suggestion would probably be useless.
Before the update to 4.0b7, I was running a patched version of the PDF Plugin but the patched version broke, as expected.
Also as a side note, video playing is broken in the new update.

Nah, I have a PDF printer installed for that. I am trying to view PDFs without downloading the file to my computer. Firefox had a plugin for that for the previous betas and I wanted to check if there are any workarounds or if there is a patched version available somewhere.

Adobe Reader plugin for Firefox 3

Has anyone else been having problems reading some pdfs using the Adobe Reader plugin for Firefox 3?
For several months this often (but not always) happens:
I follow a link to a .pdf, a new window opens with a blue progress bar in the middle.
It gets to 100%, but then nothing happens, it just sits there with the progress bar full and "Done" in the status bar.
Interestingly, I also have the "IE Tab" extension installed and if I click on the icon to change the browser engine, the page reloads (with a slightly different progress bar that includes a counter for the file size) and the document is always displayed correctly when the download is completed.
the Adobe Acrobat plug-in is v10.1.0.534.

http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/
You'll find previous versions there as well as the latest builds, but I honestly don't see why you'd not like 4.0. After all, this is Firefox we're talking about not IE, which seems to only get worse with each new release.

Is there an Adobe Acrobat plugin for FireFox/Mac OSX?

Any of you are aware of Adobe Acrobat Plugin for FireFox on Mac OSX? There seem to be one FireFox PDF Plugin for Mac X. But am looking for Adobe plugin.
Thanks,

Hi ..
You can use the pre installed Preview app for editing .JPEG files.
Preview is located in your Applications folder.

Installing Adobe Flash Player 10.0.42 Plugin for Firefox 3.5.7

I currently have Firefox 3.5.7 installed and am trying to access a site that requires the current version of Adobe Flash Player (10.0.42). When I download and install it, the website still doesn't recognize flash player being installed.
I go to Adobe.com, make sure I am downloading the one for WinXP/Firefox and install it, then it says that it is successfully installed. However, when I try to access the site, and it says that the current version of flash player is not installed, with a link to the adobe site to download the latest version (which I already did).
I have tried uninstalling the flash player, from both Windows and Adobe's uninstaller, and reinstalling with no success. I have even tried uninstalling/reinstalling Firefox, still nothing. For fun, I tried updating IE, and it works fine, but I REALLY don't like IE.
Another note: when I uninstall Flash Player, it doesn't remove it from my machine (add/remove program list), even when Windows asks, "Adobe ... is already uninstalled, would you like to remove it from the list?" Additionally, when I go to Adobe's Flash Player version tester site, it reports that IE is running version 10.0.42, but when I access it with FF, it shows a link to download the latest Adobe FP.

I have Adobe Flash Player Plugin for Firefox, but I'm still missing Flash Player?

So I have installed the latest version of Adobe Flash Player Plugin for Firefox, and I'm able to watch youtube videos on my browser and other things that require flash player, but I have a disc that i got along with my Samsung monitor, and when I put it in my computer, it says that I do not infact have flash player. Also, when I try playing a game, DawnGate, theres a black box where a video should be, and it says that i do not have flash player, and it is required to watch these videos. I tried uninstalling, and I was unable to watch youtube, and when i reinstalled, I was able to watch youtube again, but that did not fix my problem. Is there something I'm missing? I look forward to hearing from someone soon.

Odds are it's looking for the IE plugin: (A lot of software just assumes ALL Windows users are "slaves to Microsoft" and only have IE installed.)
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
or the standalone Player:
Windows Flash Player 12 Projector

Java plugin for firefox

Hi All !
I hope this is the right forum. I have installed java plugin for firefox
I try the website javatester.org and I get a message saying:
Your security settings have blocked an untrusted application from running.
If I understand this correct this is not a firefox message but a java message
so...
I have used the java control panel and added the site to the site list
I also lowered the security settings to medium
Restarted the browser and tried again but no luck, what am I missing ?
Appreciate your feedback !
Thanks
Magnus

Hi,
Did you activate the JDK java for your browser in the java plugin config.

JRE 1.5 plugin for Firefox on Linux works as root but not as an other user

I am trying to usel the JRE plugin for Firefox on Fedora Core 4. I downloaded and installed it as "root" and created the symbolic link so Firefox can "see" it. It now works just fine if I run Firefox as "root", but if I run it as any other user, it thinks that the plugin is not installed.
I checked to make sure that the path to the symbolic link is accessible by anyone (all directories in the path are x to "other" and the link and the .so file are both rx for "other").
What else do I need to do so non-root users can use this plugin?

remove $HOME/.mozilla/plugins and $HOME/.java and try again

New Plugin for Firefox- Maps Blank

I just went to maps.ovi.com and got offered a new plugin for Firefox. It seemed to install OK and now the website - which used to take about 5 mins to startup for me - starts up in seconds. Almost as fast as Google maps!
SNAG - the map area is blank. I can't see any maps!
Is it just me?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Malicious software had switched my Internet Options to use a proxy server. Firefox showed the Maps website and navigation perfectly but the map did not download. Simply disabling the "Use a proxy server" in "Connections" fixed it. Since I do not use Internet Explorer I had not noticed this!

I can't install the Flash plugin for Firefox

I can't install the Flash plugin for Firefox (Firefox version 1.5.0). I've tried to install the latest version 9.0.16.0 from the Adobe Download Centre. There are no error messages or warnings during the installation.
The Flash plugin for IE is working fine.
I've tried everything, uninstall the pre-installed version (7), re-install FireFox, uninstall all plugins, download and install everything over and over..... still the same problem.

Hi Stephan,
Thans for your reaction and suggestion.
I've cleaned up the register, deleted all the macromedia and flash keys.
Restarted, installed Flash plugin again, IE is working fine (again) but Firefox (and Opera!) only showing the message "Flash plugin needed" when I try to display a site with Flash content.
I have the same combination working on several desktops, does it have anything to do with te pre-installed software from Toshiba?
I have two Toshiba Sattelite's P100 with both exactly the same problems! Flash on IE working, Opera an Firefox NOT.

Where is "Google Web Toolkit Developer Plugin for Firefox?"

I can not find this plug in for the version of Firefox I have 3.6.8, even though it already runs with it?
I can not find Google Web Toolkit Developer Plugin for Firefox for Firefox 3.6.8 even though I already have Google Web Toolkit Developer Plugin for Firefox running on a version of Firefox 3.6.8 on other computers.
# There is no regular information that tells you how to get this plugin as there is with other plugins.
# When GWT Devmode loads the Firefox brower, it says "missing plugin." you click to install, and it can't find it.
# I know that I have previously been able to install Google Web Toolkit Developer Plugin for Firefox version 1.0.7511 installed on Firefox 3.6.8 on another machine. But I'm migrating to this one.

Hi richkatz,
I'm on FF3.6.2 and today, I encounter the same problem.
I got the solution by opening the download page in another tab. Then the firefox message switched from "Look for Plugin" to "Autorise FF to install the plugin".
Here is the URL of my new tab, hoping that it works for FF3.6.8 : https://dl-ssl.google.com/gwt/plugins/firefox/gwt-dev-plugin.xpi
Seeya! ;)

Windows Media plugin for firefox loads but does not play

Hi,
I am facing problems using windows media plugin on firefox as well as other browsers as well. I guess the problems would lie on the windows media plugin.
Few weeks back, I do not have any problems running windows media player on firefox, however I am unable to do so now. I am able to load the plugin but I cannot play it. I tried testing the plugin on the site below. Thank you for your help.
Windows Media plugin for firefox :

Hi,
You can try to fully trust Firefox + its sub processes/files in the security software (antivirus and firewall). You can also try to '''Disable''' other possibly conflicting '''Plugins''' in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons'''. You could also uninstall it from the Windows Control Panel > Programs and Features and [www.interoperabilitybridges.com/windows-media-player-firefox-plugin-download reinstall it].

Flash plugin for Firefox: 2, 3 speed audio?

Hi all,
I am having problem with audio using the flash plugin for Firefox. The video
is OK but the audio seems to be played at double or triple speed, which sounds
funy.
Here is the address:
http://news.com.com/1606-2_3-6052333.ht … &subj=news
Anybody else had this problem before?

its playing in the background right now and sounds fine. Motion is a little jerky but acceptable.
using the 2.6.16 kernel from testing firefox from current over a DSL line.
Is the rtc module loaded? Otherwise at a loss (as usual)
BTW, that VW system is the last thing I need in my truck. Would rather have a cup holder that works and a first gear that does not lose sync.
