Trouble Viewing PDF's

Recently, I am unable to open PDF's on Firefox. When I go to another browser and access the same site (such as a bank) I am able to view the PDF. I have tried some of the suggestions regarding extensions etc, but nothing seems to work. Is there a solution? Thanks, SVS

What happens when you try to access a PDF -- does Firefox suggest downloading it instead of showing it in a tab in the built-in PDF viewer? Or Firefox does nothing? Or the new tab is blank?

For reference on setting Firefox's PDF handling preference: Choose your preferred PDF viewer in Firefox.
