I had the exact same issue .. so frustrating! Here is the solution:

To add the site to the trusted sites list:

  1. At the top of the Firefox windowOn the menu bar, click on the ToolsFirefoxEdit menu, and select Options...Preferences....
  2. Select the Security panel.
  3. At the right of Warn me when sites try to install add-ons, click Exceptions....
  4. In the Allowed Sites - Add-ons Installation dialog, the list of permitted sites is displayed. The current site URL is inserted into the text field.
  5. To allow the site, click Allow. Then, click Close.

The instructions on the Adobe site are outdated and do no longer apply to current Firefox versions and you can ignore those instructions and save the Adobe installer to your desktop and start the installation with a double-click on that file.
