PDFs will open in Adobe Reader by default while using Safari, but will open in Preview while using Firefox. What do I need to do to get PDFs to open in Adobe Reader while using Firefox?
Got a tip for us?

I tried unchecking Open with [Preview (default)] but it won't uncheck. And there's no other selection besides Preview.
ajx22, I clicked on your link but I see no mention of Adobe Reader in that link.
That's a nice trick! I'm still looking for the "always open with adobe" check box though.
I don't think we're getting the same windows. Firefox sends the PDF file to the desk top. When I click on the PDF, that's what I see. I would definitely make Adobe the default if I could.
Thank You for your help clevin.
no p , you should click that "get info" line which is right below the highlighted line of your context menu. then you will see the window I posted above.
PS. if you are using an Intel chip powered mac. you might want to get free adobe reader 8. which runs faster on intel chip.
