Ever since I updated to Mountain Lion, I have not been able to access PDF file using Adobe Reader or view streamed video using Adobe Flash Player. How can I get FireFox to work with Adobe on my MAC 10.8.2 OS?

Disable the Adobe Reader plugin in Firefox (Tools > Add-ons > Plugins) and use the external Adobe Reader application or Preview application instead.

  • Firefox > Preferences > Applications > Adobe PDF document : Use Adobe Reader

PDF files may also be found under another entry like Portable document.
