Firefox downloads pdf files to temp, but then won't print them -- why?
Until a short while ago (5.0?), if I downloaded a pdf in Firefox, it would open in an Adobe window and I could print it. Now it tells me "C:\Users\Peter\AppData\Local\Temp\[filename].pdf could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences." I can't find a relevant preference in Firefox to change*; Acrobat and Reader are each fully functional, and if I go to that file location in Windows [7] Explorer, there is no difficulty opening it and printing it. ???
- BOTH Acrobat 9.4.5 and 10.1.0 show up as add-ons, but disabling one or the other has no effect on this problem.
