The adobe reader update won't install automatically. Both Adobe & Firefox remedies say that a yellow bar will appear at top of page after you click on "install". I don't get a yellow bar, nor can I find any box for editing allowed download sources.

The instructions on the Adobe site are outdated and do no longer apply to current Firefox versions and you can ignore those instructions and save the Adobe installer to your desktop and start the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.
