I cant download PDF's from my laptop i dont know whats wrong, i have a PDF reading program, but when i click on a .pdf link, my browser makes a sound (error sound) and it takes me to an about:blank, any help? ;]

I have adobe reader 8, but I tried opening the PDF on the same page and not a new tab, but it dosent work

firefox 2.0

^ Why don't you right-click + save the PDF and view it offline?

I tried doing that too, but when I click save target as, the little box dosent come up (the box where i name the file and save it to a specific place on my comp)

I used to have issues with PDF files on my laptop.

What operating system are you using? Vista home premium.

xp :]

I've never had issues with PDF files on XP. Are you sure Adobe Reader is installed correctly?

And version of XP? I've only used XP professional. And what service pack?

http://get.adobe.com/reader/ ?

Right click PDF link and click on Save As. A lot of times browsers do that because of some sort of error. Have you tried closing the browser then reopening and click the link? If you're on windows, sadly you'll more than likely have to restart your machine.

it should Work if you Click and Drag the Link of the .pdf file to your Desktop...

it does work...

..I Tried..



and Aberisk has Said that the laptop is Running on WINDOWS XP

Uninstall acrobat reader and re install that should work since your getting default settings incase you messed with yours.

You could also just, you know, update your FF. We're almost into 3.5 now. :]

3.7

3.0.7, n00b.

I still couldnt figure this out, but I rarely use my laptop anyways, so it is not hindering me anymore so this can be closed :]

You know firefox 3 came out like forever ago right? You're behind :O
