Why can't I view a preview page of an item I list on ebay in Firefox. I can view in internet explorer

Prior till about 24 hours ago, I was able to preview an item that I listed on ebay without any problems. Now I cannot preview the item in Firefox, but I can preview the item in internet explorer. What might be causing this?
Thanks,

Are you trying to use the built-in Print Preview in Firefox, or is this a page specially generated by eBay?
Do you get an error message when trying to view the page, or nothing happens when you click the link/button, or ... what exactly happens?
In case you haven't already...
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* (menu bar) Tools > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
In case one of your extensions is involved, could you test the page in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
Any difference?

When I click to open Mozilla icon on my desktop, the page does not open & I cannot access it unless I type it in an Internet Explorer page?

When I click to open Mozilla icon on my desktop, the page does not open & I cannot access it unless I type it in an Internet Explorer page? When clicking on the Icon sometimes it will flash to the right of my desktop screen but does not open for access.

Hi Dave, thanks for your answer.
I have tried a several times to repairing permissions, restarting the mac, relaunched Finder, but no difference.
I copied the download folder to the dock...there I can open the files, but not deleting them or copying them.
When I open finder, then I click on the folder Download, after a while of thinking, it throws me out and back to the desktop.
already tried to sign in with the guest user account, then I am able to open the download folder.(but not seeing my files)
When I am trying to change the download folder in Safari, it also throws me out and gives me a error report ,for sending to Apple.
I think it's a settings fault or i think my download folder is locked. Almost desperat, already called support center,
They couldn't help, for free, due the 90 days free online help i have reached. If I want to solve this problem, they could try it , but it cost me almost 50 euros.
hope there is someone, who's knowing this problem.
By the way, I think it also could be that I dragged some downloaded music to the desktop, and dragged some folder that has the settings. Now its changed???
Or I was downloading something, and deleted the files in the download folder while it was unpacking and reparing the files.
It's not easy for a beginner Mac user (3 months) to already solve this problems.
Can you follow me? And seems this problem familiar to you?
Thanks in advance

TS3899 WWhen I try to access my email, I can see mail in the preview page but when I click to go to my inbox it bounces back out to my password again, so I re-enter password and it just keeps bouncing out - help!

Hi
When I try to access my email I can see mail the preview page but when I click to go to inbox it bounces back out to my password again. I re-enter password and it does the same again. I've found only way to access is if I clear cookies and history first which obviously I would rather not have to do everytime. Anyone got any answers for this one please.

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

How can I open Internet explorer only pages on a mac? The website that I need to access only permits internet explorer

How can I open Internet explorer 'only' pages on a mac, without creating a drive partition and installing windows separately?
I've tried winbottler, but it doesn't seem to serve my purpose. The web site that I'm trying to access only permits Internet explorer.

Microsoft has not written IE for Mac for years so unless you want to create a parition and install Windows, or user a Windows emulator, you're out of luck for installing IE on a Mac.
The web site that I'm trying to access
There might be a work around for you since it's just the one site.
Go to the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
Enable the Develop menu.
Now click Develop from the Safari menu bar then click User Agent > IE 9, 8, or 7

I'm developing a web site using MVC3 & Razor, but my css changes do not show up on FireFox, but do on Chrome & Internet Explorer - How can I get Razor to render correctly on FireFox?

I don't have a public version as I'm just staring development.
For an example I have completed the walk-thru at [http://www.asp.net/mvc/tutorials/getting-started-with-ef-using-mvc/updating-related-data-with-the-entity-framework-in-an-asp-net-mvc-application]. Then I tried changing minor items in site.css (such as font size) and the changes did not show up on FireFox, but do show up on Chrome and Internet Explorer.
Example of change below: I changed the background from #e8eef4 to #ff0000. The table header background shows up in red for chrome & IE, but stay in light blue for FireFox.
<code>
table th {
padding: 6px 5px;
text-align: right;
background-color: #ff0000;
border: solid 1px #e8eef4;
</code>

You can also reload web page(s) and bypass the cache.
*Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)

I need to access a website that is not Netscape compatible. Where can I get a Firefox add-in that emulates Internet Explorer?

Need software that makes Firefox act like Microsoft Internet Explorer so that I can get into a website that will not interact properly with Netscape, which is apparently used by Firefox.

The following Add-on uses the Internet Explorer installed on your system to display a page in an IE tab in Firefox. There are several Add-ons to perform that function, but I have had the most success with the following:

There is a task bar that should be visible so you can expand the viewer to the full size of your computer screen. I can open up internet explorer and it works, but not in FireFox. This is when using ESPN3, or ESPNWATCH.

Firefox is being slower than Internet Explorer since the update. Why?

I updated Firefox, which is my absolute favorite browser, and it is being extraordinarily slow. I can't get anything done as far as working goes on my computer. I am currently running Chrome. Although that browser is faster than my car, it has few options and is far less easy to navigate than Firefox. Can you help me to understand why Firefox is having these issues since the update? Thanks.

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information such as bookmarks and history.
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.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

Can bookmarks be organized so the folders are listed first (above) the urls like they are in Internet Explorer?

In Internet Explorer I nest web addresses (urls) inside folders in a folder tree. This is something Internet Explorer actually does quite well. It would really be helpful when you open a folder in the Firefox Bookmarks to see all the folders nested within it listed at the top before any urls that might also be in the folder. If anyone knows how to do this, I'd sure appreciate knowing. Thanks.

The extension SortPlaces gives you many options on how to sort folder, the urls within folders, the urls not in folders, and the bookmarks toolbar items. I use SortPlaces for the almost 4,000 bookmarks that I have within and outside of many, many nested folders.

How can I get Firefox to let me use Internet Explorer. I have to use it to register some software and Firefox is blocking it and all of Microsoft.

We recently had to reinstall windows xp pro on our computer. We then reinstalled Mozilla.
I have to reinstall all of my software such as my Microsoft Office, but our computer will only go through Internet Explorer to activate it. However, Firefox will not allow access to any Microsoft site. Firefox says that the Microsoft sites do not provide identity information and therefore will not allow them.
I am a professional writer. I need my Microsoft Office to work and it cannot work unless I can activate it.

Just open IE, Firefox doesn't block it from working. You can even have both browsers open at the same time, if you want to.

Why don't I see the popup option to RUN when I try to download a file under Firefox that I get in Internet Explorer which is where I turn to to download a program ?

In Internet Explorer I always get the popup options RUN, SAVE, CANCEL. In Firefox I only get SAVE & CANCEL. When I click SAVE a "binary" file gets downloaded but I don't know what I'm supposed to do with that.
Thanks for your help

Firefox only allows you to save executable files. If you want to add an option to run them you can use the OpenDownload² add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/opendownload-10902

I am new to Firefox. I previously used Internet Explorer and would like to know "where/how" I can get my "Favorites" file/app" back again? Thank you!

I just started using Firefox and I can not find my "Favorites" file that I previously had when I used "Internet explorer"? Is there any way that you can help me with this issue?
Thank you in advance for your prompt and courteous attention to my question.

Ronnie

Your above posted system details show outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks that you should remove and update to the latest Flash player.
*Shockwave Flash 7.0 r19
You can find the old Flash plugin file NPSWF32.DLL in the plugins folder within the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\plugins\) and remove that file.
Also remove the flashplayer.xpt file in the components folder.

When sharing a link from Firefox, the program automatically opens Internet Explorer and not Thunderbird. Can Thunderbird be made the default for sharing links from Firefox?

When sharing a link or page via email, either the webpage or Firefox will open up Internet Explorer to share the link or page. As I use Thunderbird for emailing, could Firefox open Thunderbird automatically instead of internet Explorer?

From Firefox, I click on "File' and then 'Email link'.
This results in a new Outlook message opening automatically, with the URL copied into the body of the message.
I then add my own text, see the screenshot image. That's where the formatting problems come in!
Cheers,
Michelle
