How do I get Firefox to respond differently to the way it's handling pdf files? I just read and followed the instructions "Set how Firefox handles different types of files." I changed the setting (pop-up menu) for PDF's from Download to Always Ask, but pdf's continue to download with no asking. Is there a way to Save changes? I tried quitting and restarting Firefox. Next thing I'll try is restarting my computer, but there's no instruction to do this.

Firefox Menu > Settings > Application

  • Search for "PDF" > Change the value to "Always ASK"

Set this, if its not working properly, then your preferences are not saved

You can check the value of the plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types pref on the about:config page and remove the application/pdf part if present or reset the pref to the default via the right-click context menu if you want to display PDF documents in Firefox with another application (i.e. not the built-in PDF Viewer).
