After updating to firefox 6.0.1 I no longer can access websites with "https" in the address bar.

I am running Avast internet security. I have tried removing firefox from the allowed websites section and re entering it into the list and I still cannot access facebook, email, bank, etc. Same effect in google chrome but Internet explorer works normally. Not sure what settings were adjusted after the update and where to go to bring them back to the way they were.

  • Firefox 4 will not accept a web based service "Silverlight" that I downloaded after updating to Firefox 4. I need this on-line access to pay taxes to the State of AR

    The AR Dept. of Finance requires that a taxpayer download a web-based service that allows taxpayers online access to their tax accounts. I cannot get "Silverlight" to work with Firefox 4

    ''I have it downloaded''
    ....You also have to run the downloaded Silverlight.exe file to install Silverlight. Open the Firefox [[Downloads window]] (via Tools -> Downloads") , right-click on the Silverlight.exe download entry and select "Open containing folder" to find the downloaded file, then close Firefox and double-click the exe file to start the installation.

  • After update, my firefox reverted to my old and unusable bookmarks leaving me with numerous lost bookmarks. How do I get them back?

    I recently updated my firefox and when I opened it, all of my bookmarks that I've made over the past several updates are gone. My current page shows bookmarks that I have deleted a long time ago or are no longer working. Even bookmarks that I have saved in folders are gone. My stumbleupon is also missing and will not update. As a teacher, many of my bookmarks were important and I would really appreciate some help.

    I have tried opening my previous bookmarks and restoring them, but even the "recently bookmarked" section shows bookmarks that I made years ago instead of the ones that I made today.

  • After upgrading to firefox 4 for yahoo my "My Yahoo" home page loads wide I use the scroll bar to see it all.

    This is an intermittent problem. I have not changed any of my setting in "My Yahoo" that would account for this problem. How can I fix this without changing the font size.

    Solution for my problem: I had simultaneously blocked some items on my page using Adblock Plus. I removed those personal blocks and the page is back to normal.

  • Does Firefox has a feature can allow websites to open windows without address bar as IE 7?

    Some of popup windows can be opened without address bar.

    Hello,
    Try clicking on Tool --> Options --> Advanced --> General tab. Uncheck "Use Hardware Acceleration... ". Do you have any add-on like avg safe search installed?
    Hope that helps.

  • After updating to Firefox 7.0.1 , Kaspersky password Manager v5 crashed firefox?!

    After updating to Firefox 7.0.1 , Kaspersky password Manager v5 becomes incompatible with Firefox 7.01 ,I've tried to force add-on to work by installing the Add-on Compatibility Reporter , it said this add-on no longer works , any site I open it with kaspersky Password Manager firefox would crash , I wish I could rollback the updates and back to version 6 , also Kapersky virtual keyboard ,URL advisor . antibanner for KIS 2012 stopped working any solution , please?!

    @repected sir.
    we paid kaspersky pure alot of money....and a major portion was because it has inbuilt password manager.....
    if we get the password manager v5..we still have to pay for it which is unacceptible.
    firefox has ruined password manager.
    i recommend people to switch over to chrome(the new version has password manager support) for the time being till firefox gets us a stable version one which has support for kaspersky password manager.
    regards

  • Firefox freezes when i visit websites with videos on the background or i watch videos.I have windows 7 and the laatest version of mozilla.

    I have windows 7 and the latest version of firefox.When i watch videos on youtube or visit websites with videos on the background mozilla freezes. I tried to disable all the extensions and plugins but it had no result.I didn't had this problem with versions of mozilla previous to 4.

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

  • Firefox is crashing or comes up with Chrome something in the address bar and clears my page, why?

    For some reason Firefox keeps clearing my page and something with 'Chrome' in the address bar pops up along with a second set of menu, bookmarks, and address bar below my existing ones. If I click on anything besides the address bar it disappears. I've uninstalled Google Chrome and Firefox. (thinking that Google Chrome might be somehow interfering with FF) I then re-installed my previous version of FF with no results. I took it off again and then installed the newest version of FF. I've ran several scans on my computer with SuperAntiSpyware, cleared my history/cache . Nothing has changed and I'm very irritated now. Either someone tell me how to fix this or I'm switching to another browser.

  • After updating to Firefox 7.0.1, menu bar for Google,yahoo, Facebook (message,notification,profile,home) and others site are disabled. How can solve this problem?

    after updating to Firefox 7.0.1, menu bar for Google(web ,image,video,map etc),yahoo, Facebook (message,notification,profile,home) and others site are disabled. even I cant log out from different sites cz the log out bar is completely disabled. I tried with Firefox 4;5 and 6, same problem exist . I tried by active all add ons for facebook, same problem exist. If I use internet explorer , I don't find such problem with it.
    How can I solve this problem?

    Thanks a lot for your swift response. And sorry if it was a bit too hectic to go through my detailed query (which I did because it was misunderstood when I asked previously). As I've mentioned above, I was informed that updating to 5.0.1 would '''require''' me to '''delete''' the current version and then install the new one. And doing so will involve losing all my bookmarks. I guess I should have been more specific and detailed there. By losing, I didn't mean losing them forever. I'm aware that they're secured in some place and deleting and installing the software doesn't harm its existence. What I meant that if I install the new version, I'd have to delete the old one. And after installing the new version, I'd have to transfer them (bookmarks) back from wherever they are. Get it? When it updated from 3.6.9 to 3.6.13, and from 3.6.13 to 3.6.18, I didn't need to follow that process. They were already present on their own.
    BTW, I'm having no problems with 3.6.18 but after learning about the existence of version 5.0.1, I'm a bit too eager to lay my hands over it.
    Thanks for your help; hope this wasn't extremely long.

    It sounds like you restored from an old back-up.  Did you back-up just before your software update?  It will use your last one and if your last back-up was a ywear old then it will use that one.
    In general, if you are getting these messages on your iPhones select logout (when you get that Apple Id request) and then log back in with your newer ID.
    Sorry for your losses.

    Have you tried re-syncing as Larry suggested?
    I'm sure it will work, but I'm perplexed as to how this could happen.
    Do you find that iPhoto now launches faster? Perhaps it's because my web galleries are gone?

  • How do I remove the bookmark toolbar icons for websites? After updating to Firefox 22, add-ons don't help.

    In the Bookmark Toolbar, the icons for websites take up too much space and are distracting. I used to use the Bookmarks - Deiconizer add-on but after updating to Firefox 22 it doesn't work anymore.
    I tried adjusting the userChrome.css as in other posts but that does not work.
    Please help!

    Hi haweyext,
    Did you see this thread from yesterday:
    [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/964732 How do I keep the icons out of my Bookmarks Toolbar (tried Bookmarks Deiconizer) even after downloading files?]
    If userChrome.css isn't working (note: you need to exit and restart Firefox before it takes effect), you can apply that rule to Firefox using the Stylish extension instead.
    Does any of that help?

  • After update to Firefox 15 it crashes after javascript call window.close();opener.alert('test');. Is this working as intended or is it a bug?

    After update to Firefox 15 it crashes after javascript call from a popup window.close();opener.alert('test');. Is this working as intended or is it a bug?

    According to the pages linked to the crash ID, there is a bug report on this.
    Does the crash occur as soon as you run those two lines of code, or after dismissing the alert()?
    If this is your application, why are you running script commands after calling window.close()? Could you avoid the problem by using an approach like this:
    <br>window.setTimeout(function(){opener.alert('test'},250);
    window.close();

    I am unable to view flash videos from all websites except youtube after updating to Firefox 4. All help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance :)

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
    * Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)
