FF 25, Mac Mountain Lion.

In the last week, PDFs have stopped downloading and Downloads window is blank. Have tried Safe Mode and clearing cache, as well as selectively disabling DownloadHelper add-on. Nothing has worked. Acrobat plug-in is not used, I've always had the PDFs opening in Acrobat itself.

It appears to only affect PDFs.

I have not reset FF because that's so invasive and labor-intensive. Any other solution before i resort to that (or switch to Chrome)?

In order to change the default reader for PDF files (to not open PDF files with Firefox's internal PDF reader), follow these steps:

  1. Go to Tools > Options (or Firefox > Options).
  2. In the Options window, select the Applications tab.
  3. In the Search field, type PDF. You should find Portable Document Format (PDF).
  4. On the right handside you should find an Action column. Use that to select your favorite PDF reader. In order to view PDF files in Firefox, choose Preview in Firefox.

There is neither Tools>Options nor Firefox>Options in my Mac version 25. Can you update your templated responses to the latest versions? Thanks.

(But accessing those features from Preferences, I saw that I had switched to the PDF plug-in. Switching back to Acrobat makes them download properly now -- but i'm not sure why the plug-in doesn't work?)
