Composing in gmail will not work in firefox, but it does in IE. Why?

I suddenly cannot compose, reply or access my contacts in gmail when
I'm using firefox, but I can in IE.
This problem is on just one computer.
Turning off Buzz and clearing cookies and cache did not help.

I had this very problem today. I found the solution through another support request. The DOM storage "cookies" need to be enabled:

    hello phillbatts, the java plugin and javascript are two very different things: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Javascript_is_not_Java
    if websites report that javascript is disabled, try the following: enter '''about:config''' into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''javascript.enabled'''. make sure that it is set to '''true''' and else double-click it in order to change its value.
    if this doesn't help, please also make sure that you don't have any extensions (like noscript) installed, that might block the execution of javascript or other active content...

  • Some of the buttons on web pages will not work with firefox but will with IE, is there a fix or do i need to uninstall firefox

    going through my account at verizon pay bill get to a submit button, it will not work. go back to site with IE everthing find. Happened mant times before, but sometimes i restart the page and it works, not the last time, i had to use IE

    Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?<br/> ''A troubleshooting mode.''<br />
    You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut. Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut to open it again.''

  • Site search will not work in Firefox but works with Chrome

    I run three websites. One is personal (www.rossolson.org) and two are for non-profit organizations (www.outpostministries.org and www.tccsa.tc). All have site search through Google, my own site is paid to be ad-free, the non profits are free and without adds because of their non profit status. For a while now, site search does not work with Firefox for the non profit sites but does for the paid site. Chrome and IE work fine. Is there a solution? Some setting to activate? Is this Google's doing?

    I am able to type a search word in but on clicking it, nothing changes. No results. the word just stays there.
    I also downloaded the https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/live-http-headers/ -- at first I wondered if it was not letting me install. So I allowed it in exceptions. But I'm not clear on what it does or what I do to use it.

  • Videos will not work in Firefox but work fine in windows explorer. why?

    I tried to verify my plug-in's and all are enabled. I found where was suggested to remove and reinstall Firefox but that did not fix problem either. I tried to change viewer for videos but still no luck. Not certain why Quicktime doesn't work. Note, videos when browsing will not open but everything else works fine. Videos work fine with windows Explorer, but not Firefox.

    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 (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • Java will not work on Firefox 3.6 and 4.0.Why?

    After upgrading toFirefox 3.6 and 4.0 cannot get Java to work.
    Uninstalled several times with both versions,and reinstalled the same.As soon as Iclick on a Java site Firefox freezes and does not respond

    Friends,
    Everytime you upgrade firefox 3.6 onwards In win XP you are advised to upgrade Flash player and now for FF 3.6.8 player 10.1.54.. I don't find any justification.I would rather suggest user of Mozilla to clear the unwanted file created on macromedia flash player at C:\Documents and Settings\(**type__yuorfoldername)\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects> then except for s.ytimg.com ,ww.youtube.com you can safely delete the other junk.Thn move on to E:\Documents and Settings\ **type your foldername)\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash Player\macromedia.com\support\flashplayer\sys perform similar exercise. However this is my suggestion you may at your own risk . Chinu Ray

  • Hi. I have a website that uses Virtuemart and the 'add to cart' feature will not work in Firefox but will in IE. I am running XP and 'Accept all cookies' is enabled. HELP, PLEASE... Thankyou

    I am testing our website :www.winningsportstips.com and we have Virtuemart installed and the site will not allow me to select 'add to cart' feature. However if I open the website in Internet Explorer, the feature is available and it functions correctly. I am running XP and have 'accept all cookies' enabled in settings.
    Can you give me any clues? Thanks , Vern Nowland

  • Image - maps are not working in Firefox but it does work in IE. Some help required.

    Hey there,
    Last week i've been building a website for our company. However, there is still a problem with our banner/slider. I've uploaded some images and the slider is currently working. But the image maps ,using <map> & <area> taggs, are not functional in FF. They do work in IE so I suppose it should be working correctly.
    I've tried using Chrome & Safari but the problem keeps persisting.
    Some help would be nice (:

    Doesn't work in Firefox, Chrome, and Safari? <br />
    Sounds like you're using non-compliant code.

  • Netflix Instant Play will not work with Firefox but works fine with Internet Explorer

    When I log in to Netflix, I cannot play instant movies from my Queue. I called Netflix and they said to reset my router. I did this and now Netflix Instant play works with Internet Explorer but not Firefox.

    I am able to type a search word in but on clicking it, nothing changes. No results. the word just stays there.

  • I just downloaded the latest Windows updates, now videos online will not work on Firefox but will on other browsers, anyone else having this problem?

    After downloading the latest Windows updates I found that I could not play videos on YouTube or at other sites. Switching to other browsers I found I could play those same videos now without any problem. So I did a System Restore to determine if the Windows updates had affected video play using Firefox. The restore point was set to the day before the Windows download occurred. After System Restore was completed I could now play videos using the Firefox browser.
    To make sure that the Windows update was the problem, I again downloaded the newest Windows Updates and once again could not play videos on any site using Firefox. System restore was used to again reset my computer to the day before and once again the videos would ow play in the Firefox browser.

    Actually your reply took me in another direction and I found this on the Adobe site:
    The RealPlayer extension for Firefox, Downloading & Recording, has compatibility issues with Flash Player 11.3. If RealPlayer is installed Flash Player content does not appear. YouTube provides an error message when you try to watch a video.
    As a workaround, do the following:
    Start RealPlayer.
    Click the RealPlayer icon in the upper-left corner and select Preferences.
    Select Download & Recording in the left menu and deselect Enable Web Download & Recording for These Installed Browsers option.
    Click OK and restart Mozilla Firefox.
    Once I followed this I could now again play videos in Firefox.

    The enter key is not working in firefox but it has working fine in chrome and IE so please help me to rid out from this.

    Hello gokulaan, '''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.)''
    * You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''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.

  • Farmville will not load using Firefox, but it will with IE, for over a week now.

    Farmville will not load using Firefox, but it will with IE, for over a week now. I have cleared the cache and cookies multiple times, updated flash player, did a virus and malware scan, allowed java script, allowed mozilla in the Windows firewall, contacted Zynga multiple times, and yet Farmville still will not load using Firefox, my main and preferred browser. I'm very frustrated and want this fixed.

    Thanks for the advice cor-el, but if you would read the info I posted, I already did that, SEVERAL TIMES. That's not the solution unfortunately.
