  • Itunes store has a blank page will not load

    I have updated my system also uninstalled and reinstalled itunes

    Install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo
    That will replace any missing system files and is applied for troubleshooting.
    Restart your Mac after the combo is installed then try iTunes.
    If that didn't help, restore v10.6 using your install disc > Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard: How to Erase and Install
    No need to erase the drive, just follow the instructions for a retore.
    When you're done restart your Mac. Then click Software Update from your Apple menu  top left in your screen.
    That should bring all your software up to date.

    You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
    You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
    *Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
    *Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    *Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
    Clear the cache and remove cookies only from websites that cause problems.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • The new version of Firefox, 18.02, will not load any pages. Why not?

    I attempted to open Firefox and was told it would load when the updates were applied, which was nothing new. It loaded fine and there were no incompatible add-ons, but it will not load any web pages. I'm on the same computer using Chrome to send this message. Everything was working fine in release 18.01.

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

  • Firefox will not load any web pages since update

    Using Galaxy Nexus, installed update today. I have ICS version 4.0.1. Pages will not load at all. Even the firefox pages on the home page will not load. I verified with using both wifi and my network, and checked the stock browser from the phone which works, but no success with Firefox. I uninstalled Firefox, restarted my phone, re-installed, and the same issues are happening. Any idea how to get this back to normal?

    Update..when I open firefox from scratch, the main firefox pages on the home page seem to work. But as soon as I try to go anywhere else, IE going to a website in the address bar or even trying to access the defauly bookmark links, it just sits there loading but never brings anything up.

  • Firefox will not load any web page, other programs will. Continuously "connecting"

    Firefox will not load any pages, but Google Chrome will. Firefox will 'load' the home page, but with any other site, the tab will continuously circle and say "connecting". I have tried clearing my cache, starting in safe mode, and restarting my computer. So far, nothing is working.

    It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • I can make a WiFi connection but pages will not load. WiFi works for a laptop using windows

    I can make a WiFi connection but pages will not load.  WiFi works ok on a laptop using Windows.  I have reset the WiFi settings but this makes no difference.

    Thanks, Linc, but  that almost helped:
    Because the retina 15 only has a wifi connection (no ethernet), that's the connection I'm stuck with for the notebook. But on the 27iMac, I did have both ethernet and wifi enabled. When I turned the wifi off on the 27, therer was a brief moment when both computers were showing their counterparts when I tried to make a network connection. BUT, after a few seconds of 'searching', the computer I was trying to connect to disappeared from the Network list.
    So I tried the opposite; the retina can only connect thru wifi, so that's a given. I swithched my ethernet off and then enabed the wifi on the 27 and ....same thing: When I try a network connection, there are a few seconds of 'searching', then the ony option I'm left with is share screen, which doesn't work either.
    I've read the 'dropped' network is a problem with the retina, but the odd thing is that I never lose my internet connection—that continues to work fine, as does Air Drop—but I can't seem to connect, network-wise.
    Any ideas about the dropped network?

  • In Firefox 18.0.1 on Windows XP, pages will not load until I hit reload

    In Firefox 18.0.1 on Windows XP, many pages will not load initially. They will sit, blank, with the little spinning circle. If I hit reload, they immediately load. I have verified that all plugins are up to date (AdBlock Plus and Web Of Trust) and that I have the latest version of Java. I also have added Firefox as an exception to Windows Firewall, and verified that no proxies are set.

    '''Try the Firefox Safe Mode''' to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.''
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Don't select anything right now, just use "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shift key) to open it again.''
    '''''If it is good in the Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.

  • Firefox 10.0.2 on a Samsung Continuum 2.1 will not load any web pages.

    Just reinstalled and still no luck. Will not load any web pages or complete any searches. Just brings up a blank page and adds a blank tab. Tried on WiFi and 3G, neither will work. Installed the Phony add-on and set the user agent to Android as suggested in the help, but no change. I'm using GO Launcher EX, but reverted to the stock launcher to see if that helped, still no luck.

    Unfortunately the Firefox App is not working properly with 2.1 systems. HEre are the bugs to follow their statusesȘ

  • Application Server Control Panel page will not load

    I am new to Oracle Application Server and need some assistance to determine why the Application Server Control Page will not load after entering the username/password for ias_admin. I have just installed Oracle Application Server 10g (10.1.2) on Redhat Linux.
    The Listener and the Repository Database are up. I have successfully started the processes for the OracleAS Infrastructure instance with:
    $ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin/opmnctl startall
    I have successfully started the OracleAS Console with:
    $ORACLE_HOME/bin/emctl start iasconsole
    I ran "emctl status iasconsole" and received:
    http://localhost.localdomain:1810/emd/console/aboutApplication
    Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Application Server Control is running
    Logs are generated in Directory ...../sysman/log
    I ran "opmnctl status" and received:
    Process in Instance: oraappserv1.localhost.localdomain
    ias component process type pid status
    LogLoader logloader N/A Down
    DSA DSA N/A Down
    dcm-daemon dcm-daemon 0 None
    HTTP_Server HTTP_Server 6180 Alive
    OC4J OC4J_SECURITY N/A Down
    OID OID 6199 Alive
    I can bring up the "Welcome to Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1.2)" web page successfully with "http//<host>:7777".
    My problem arises after I click on the link for " log on to Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Application Server Control". I enter the username/pwd for ias_admin and then progress bar on the status bar of the browser goes so far and stops. The Application Server Page will not render.
    Can someone point me into the direction of what to check, whether its an enviromental setting for linux or a configuration issue with the Application Server?
    note: that the status bar for the browser shows "shortcut to localhost.local domain" when highlighting the link " log on to Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Application Server Control". This is different than <host> specified in the URL to render the welcome page. I would't think this to be an issue because the login screen came up and it also appears in the results of the emctl status iasconsole and opmnctl status commands.
    Thanks in advance for your assistance.

    Emilio, note implies emagent core dumps. If that is the case emctl would (hopefully) not return status "ok".
    Here is my output with sysman oc4j running but emagent gone (AS 9.0.4):
    $ emctl status iasconsole
    Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Application Server Control 9.0.4.1.0
    Copyright (c) 1996, 2004 Oracle Corporation. All rights reserved.
    EM Daemon is not running.
    Also, if you login to AS Control does it redirect browser to http://localhost.localdomain/... ?
