Firefox will not open Adobe PDF files on my mini Mac (I have reader x and the latest Quicktime versions)

When I try to download a pdf file sometimes an error message appears and states can't down load file, Quicktime may need an extension. Other times the page just stays blank - nothing happens. This happens very frequently. I can open some pdf files in Firefox. The problem appears with downloading. I have the same software in Safari and Firefox and I do not have this problem with Safari - I can download PDFs in that browser
