Why can I not open a you tube item on Firefox
I've been sent 4 different music videos on email but cannot open them in order to hear them. I'm advised that the 'plugin'
is vulnerable. What is a plugin?
Hmm, what kind of files were you sent?
Your "More System Details" shows that you have a rather old version of the Flash player plugin in Firefox: Shockwave Flash 11.5 r502
A plugin is a chunk of computer code that another company, like Adobe, releases to add capabilities to Firefox. In this case, the Flash player handles a range of different kinds of media right inside a Firefox tab inside of requiring you to download the media and play it in a separate program.
But to get back to the vulnerable part, you can update Flash by downloading a fresh installer from Adobe:
* Main distribution page: https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
* Alternate page: http://www.adobe.com/special/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
Sometimes the new Flash installer doesn't clean out the old plugin. To give it the best shot at doing that, it's best to close Firefox after the download and run the Flash installer with Firefox closed to avoid locking the old file. After the install, you can check for the Add-ons page to see whether there was a clean substitution of the new Shockwave Flash for the old one.
To open the Add-ons page, either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Plugins.
Success?

Why can I not open some attached emailed pdf files?
PLEASE HELP ME! I HAVE TO OPEN THESE FILES MY BUSINESS DEPENDS ON IT! why can I not open some attached pdf files and others are ok?
PDF files are extremely reliable. You may have a software issue. I have the problem on 2 identical systems with the exact same specs. The problem occurs at the same exact interval. It may be a windows update. We have had to re-install software form the DVD in each instance. This fixes it for awhile and then it recoccurs. Adobe acts as if they have never heard of the problem...imagine that. I'm the only one with th problem.
This is happens with CS6 volume lic product.
If you dont own Adobe product it will be even more difficult to find and answer as the reader is used my so many people.
We know we have the problem again when we double click opn a PDF and nothing happens. SOme have reported that reloading does not fix the problem.
Wish I could help you. I am looking for answers to this issue right now and phone support is a 30 minute wait.
Very frustrating. -
why can I not open illustrator on my laptop it will not download from creative cloud
Vanessa,
You need to have Application manager installed.
Beyond that, I believe this is one for Customer Care (tick I Still Need Help and hope for an agent available for a chat),

Why can I not open PDF-files in InDesign CS4?
Hi,
Well then, as I wrote in the headline... Why can I not open PDF-files?
I get a notification that says that either the file is already open (which it's not) or it is missing a plug-in thingy for this kind of file.
So, how do I know which plug-in thing I should chose from Adobe which will solve my problem?
Could it be enough just to update the program? I tried with 6.0.6. upgrade but it wouldn't even open up. I'm not so good at this type of computerproblems (choosing upgrades, plug-in etc.). The program is not upgraded for a long time, unless it do it automatically, but I think we've chosen it not to....
Please help!

Why can I not open files saved on a server?
I think I figured it out. I set the compatibility mode to Windows Server 2008 (which is the OS on the server we are using) and it opened just fine. Whoop Whoop. Thanks for your help.

Why can I not open a stated InDesign CS8.1 document when mine says it is InDesign CC version 9.1? I have creative cloud.
The version error messages are really screwed up and out of sync with the new naming (CC) system. CS8.1 would be CC2014 version 10.1

You will have to check to see if opening and saving in a .doc or .docx format is permitted in AppleWorks. Since AppleWorks is legacy software it probably is not supported.
