I was quite frustrated when I downloaded Firefox 4 and found I could not
open or save a PDF files from a web page.
I found that I needed to update my Adobe Reader.
STOP NOW and bookmark my page here.
You might have to close the Firefox windows to download the newest reader.
You can get an update at this link: SEE BELOW.
First you will need to know what your computer's operating system is.
To locate that information, Go to the START key in the lower left corner of your
computer screen. Left mouse click.
A window will open up. Right mouse click on the word - COMPUTER.
Then left click on the word - PROPERTIES.
A window will open up telling you the Windows operating system. (Mine is Vista)
Now you can go to this Adobe link and download a reader. I downloaded the
Adobe Reader 9.4. I had read some things about the Adobe X and they were not so good.
I believe the X is the latest, but the 9.4 worked for me.
From the Adobe site, it will tell you step by step how to download.
Link to download - Adobe Reader
AFTER you download the Adobe Reader, you will need to make sure your
Application settings are correct. The following widows will show you how to get
to the Application settings.
JUST --- LEFT MOUSE CLICK on the orange FIREFOX button in the upper
right of your computer page..... Then go to the areas highlighted in the graphics.
This should solve the problem for you. If I can be of any help, just leave a comment.
I'm certainly NO expert, but thought this info might be useful for others.
When you click options.... this window will open up. Click on Applications
and make sure all the Adobe tabs are set this way........ Click OK .
