Cannot open PDF files from Zotero
I get this weird error message when I try to open pdf files from Zotero:
"/media/.../zotero/storage/CTR5F4T4/JMB531.pdf could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences."
Does anyone know how to let Firefox/Zotero open the file inside a tab as it did before?
However I can open pdf's in a new tab from other websites, eg using Adobe Reader plug-in viewer.
My Firefox Application preferences are:
PDF document (aplication/pdf) Use Adobe Reader 9.3 (in firefox)
PDF document (aplication/force-downlode) Use (default)
PDF document (aplication/binary) Save File
One other point: I get the same error message if I go File->Open from within Firefox.
I am running Ubuntu 10.4, with adobe acrobat 9.3. and Zotero 2.0.3, and Firefox 3.6.6.
