When I attempt to open a PDF file I receive a message "Adobe Acrobat/Reader can not be used to view PDF files in a web browser." I have Adobe Reader 9+ installed that presumably opens PDF files. Is there a way to work around this problem or must I purchase Adobe Acrobat? I noticed your assumptions about my computer. I do use Windows 7 and I assume I have the latest Mozilla Firefox version, but I don't know about any of the other assumptions.

Hi,

You can try PDF Viewer after disabling the Adobe PDF plugin in Tools (Alt + T) > Add-ons > Plugins.

Thanks for your suggestions, but disabling the Adobe PDF plug in and downloading PDF viewer did not work. Still could not open a PDF file from a website. I tried the profile route, but the profiles I believe you meant did not appear.

Another person suggested this approach, but no profile seemed to match his suggestion. Thanks.
