Being in a Skype call causes Firefox to not load videos or audio files such as pandora songs or youtube videos.

I have already talked with a Skype representative and they said to come talk to you. I do not have this problem with IE or other browsers. I already tried reinstalling firefox and reinstalling skype, neither of which was effective. It is really annoying because depending on luck of the draw I will have to refresh a video 10 or more times to not receive and error.

This is not a problem with Skype. The Skype program will take a lot of internet usage and CPU to run on your computer. This may cause Firefox to run slow and/or not function correctly.
You can try these things, but I don't think that it will help:
# Try Firefox in [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode?esab=a&s=safe+mode&r=1&as=s Safe Mode]
# Update to the most recent version of Firefox <i>(Firefox 23.0)</i>
Have you ever been able to run Skype and Firefox before?

  • Removed working Firefox 7, Installed Firefox 10.0, Firefox will not load. When I click on icon, firefox.exe process shows briefly in task manager, then goes away....no errors, nothing

    Removed working Firefox 7, Installed Firefox 10.0, Firefox will not load. When I click on icon, firefox.exe process shows briefly in task manager, then goes away....no errors, nothing. Never see browser panel at all. Also tried to install Firefox 9.0, but the same result was observed.

    Rather difficult to say what the problem may be at present but for general info please have a look at
    * [[safe mode]]
    *[[firefox will not start]]
    *[[firefox hangs]]
    Note sometimes you may have to wait a while for firefox to shutdown completly, and if it has hung then as explained in the above articles you may need to kill any firefox.exe process that is still running (and maybe plugincontainer.exe)
    Try starting firefox in [[safe mode]] e.g. by holding down shift key
    * do not make any changes in the first window, just click on continue<br/> ? Do you get as far as seeing the options window for safe mode ?
    If firefox is crashing see [[firefox crashes]], this is easier to work through if you can get firefox to start without crashing on startup. Currently some firefox users are finding Firefox 10 crashes on startup, and a new version Firefox 10.0.1 is being released very soon to deal with this and another cause of hangs.
    Not saying any of this applies to your case but recent issues include
    * ask tool bar causing hangs if video is used none English versions [/forums/contributors/708073]
    * possibly some crashes do not start the crash reporter and other issues [/forums/contributors/708122?page=2#post-45059]
    * some general info about current crashes [/questions/917748#answer-308124]

  • Firefox is not loading websites

    I attempted to Google search some images, but the page stopped loading even though the tab said it was still loaded. I tried to do a web search instead, but Firefox wouldn't load Google at all. I then decided to restart my computer and run a disk cleanup and cleared my history, but even that didn't stop Firefox from not loading Google. Frustrated, I tried going to other websites, such as Facebook and InsaneJournal, but neither of these would load either. I'm absolutely certain that these websites are all running fine, but my concern is that Firefox's latest update -- not the beta -- is causing my problems.

  • Firefox does not load by clicking he icon why .have to restart to load

    firefox does not load.click the icon noyhing happens. I have to restart or log out for firefox to load

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that 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 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.

  • Firefox does not load images on any website. This has been a problem for years

    It's not clear why. but only Firefox does not load images on web pages. Works fine on IE
    Follow all the troubleshooting steps at
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_don%27t_load
    no of it works. Never has. I see this problem all over. It's the main reason that users don't switch to Firefox.

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.

    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins"
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

  • Whenever I restart my laptop, Firefox will not load.

    Whenever I restart my laptop, Firefox will not load automatically. I use Windows 7

    A couple of troubleshooting options you can try. This may be caused by an add-on, follow the procedure in this link - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    If that does not help, there may be some corruption in your profile folder (location where user data is stored). As a test try creating a new profile, if that works you can selectively copy data such as bookmarks and passwords from the old profile. For details on doing that see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Creating_a_new_Firefox_profile_on_Windows and https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Recovering+important+data+from+an+old+profile

  • Firefox will not load no matter what I try (safe mode whatever). It only loads if I run it inside Comodo sandbox! How do I get it to run the normal way?

    Firefox will not load the normal way (clicking on a link or running it from Run window or even running it in safe mode). It only runs if I dig down to the installed directory, right-click firefox.exe and select "Run inside Comodo Sandbox". I have Comodo Internet Security Suite installed but this does not happen with other programs. Do send in your suggestions. Re-install did not help.
