I cannot get an Iframe to display a pdf file on my Mac OS 10.8.2, using FIrefox 14.0.1, it works on PC, and works on Safari on the mac, just will not display on Firefox.

Try to update to Firefox 17 then try again. Update Firefox to the latest release

We've seen reports that the PDF plugin isn't working properly in Firefox.

Try to 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.

I have OS X 10.7.5, Firefox 17.0. In my case, if there's a PDF in an iframe, it opens in Adobe Reader in a separate window, leaving the iframe blank. Works fine on all other browsers I've tried.

The Preference for Portable Document Format (application/pdf) is set to "Use Adobe Reader" as suggested.
