Does Firefox not work with windows8

I had no problems with Firefox while using windows 7, but now have 8 and Firefox is continually being non responsive.

Some problems occurs when your Internet security program was set
to trust the previous version of Firefox, but no longer recognizes your
updated version as trusted. Now how to fix the problem: To allow
Firefox to connect to the Internet again;
* Make sure your Internet security software is up-to-date (i.e. you are running the latest version).
* Remove Firefox from your program's list of trusted or recognized programs. For detailed instructions, see

  • Why does Firefox not work here in China anymore, since January of 2015?

    I have used Firefox for years, as the fastest and most reliable browser for me, esp in China... not anymore! Last month (unknown to me) a hijacker called Vosteran took over my Firefox browser. I finally realized it and got it cleaned up using Malwarebytes anti-malware, and downloaded a new Firefox... now SAME problem exists, even with Vosteran removed!
    Firefox will not allow me into ANY normal sites, saying they don't have the proper security code. This includes my Yahoo front page, email account, ESPN and other common sites that are certainly NOT dangerous. So, WHY does Firefox not work anymore? It is useless to me here in China the way it works now.

    hello rickinchina, first please make sure that the '''date, time & timezone''' are set correctly on your system and that firefox is set to directly connect to the internet (that's the "'''no proxy'''" setting in the firefox ''menu ≡ > options > advanced > network > connection - settings...'').
    if this doesn't solve the issue (or it is already set properly), a possible solution depends on different factors:
    * what is the '''error code''' shown under ''technical details'' on the error page?
    in case the error code equals ''sec_error_unknown_issuer'', please attempt to add an exception on the bottom of the error page (but don't do it for real) and inspect the certificate (see the screenshot attached for instructions):
    * which '''issuer information''' does the certificate contain?
    please report back with those two pieces of information. thank you!

  • Does Firefox 6 work with Billeo?

    I had to reinstall Firefox 4 because 5 did
    not work with Billeo. Does Firefox 6
    work with Billeo?

    I recently upgraded to FF6 and to my surprise, Billel does have Support for FF6. However its ony for Windows users. Below is a copy of the email that Billeo sent me.
    Dear Customer,
    Billeo for Firefox 6 is available for download for Windows only. Unfortunately, Firefox 6 support for Mac systems is still under development. If you are on a Windows system, you can download the latest Firefox 6 supported version of Billeo by heading over to www.billeo.com and clicking on Get Billeo Now. This will uninstall the current version and install the Firefox 6 supported version. Once the install is complete, please remember not to register a new account. Simply sign back in with your existing username and password for your Billeo account. You can do so by clicking on the Billeo Icon in your browser and selecting Sign In.

  • Does FireFox 4 work with OSX 10.5?

    Does the new FireFox 4 work with OSX 10.5? I ask this because read in an article on Mac Rumors 22nd March 2011 that it does and I quote ''"[http://www.macrumors.com/ Firefox 4.0 is of course a free download, with the Mac version requiring a minimum of Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard] Firefox 4.0 is of course a free download, with the Mac version requiring a minimum of Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard"''. Is this information correct?

    Yes, it will work on OSX 10.5.8, but only with Intel processors.
    For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4.0, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 . <br />

  • PS Cloud does not work with Windows8

    Why is there no warning when you buy or subscribe to Adobe Cloud alerting you that PS CC does not work properly with Windows 8??? There is no customer service agent to work with you on fixing the problem, and I am not a programmer... so I do not have the knowledge or the time to figure out how to update video cards and drivers...

    You have a bit of a misconception.  Adobe software in general works just fine with Windows 8.
    YOU are the system integrator of your computer.  It is YOUR responsibility to ensure the computer provides the essential facilities that the application software you try to run needs.
    As you have chosen Windows, not OSX, you will need to learn enough about how to set up and maintain your system so that it works.  This will involve learning how to get the proper drivers into your system to make it capable of running Adobe software.
    It's not a difficult process.

  • Firefox not working with gmail

    i tried to load gmail, but the standard view does not load, only the basic html version.
    whereas it loads perfectly internet explorer 9 or firefox v4.
    tried reinstalling, clearing cookies etc.. nothing changed.
    even tried "network.http.spdy.enabled" to false as given on http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/928888#answer-339203 but nothing happened.
    got error:
    with gmail-
    Some important features may not work in this version of your browser, so you have been redirected to the Basic HTML version. Upgrade to a modern browser, such as Google Chrome.
    with blogger-
    Your browser is no longer supported by Blogger. Some parts of Blogger will not work and you may experience problems.
    If you are having problems, try Google Chrome. | Dismiss
    has gmail stopped supporting firefox new versions? i dont want to switch to chrome? wat can i do?
    am using windows xp sp3

    This is silly (and stupid). Why should I have to go to IE anything? Firefox worked fine with gmail until I went to this new version (16), I went to the beta version and gmail still did not work. I thought you guys were supposed to be unbiased? I should be able to use one program for my mail and my internet and not lose any of my cookies or services. I went to you guys because I was able to use all the services without any problems, now need two services so I can use my mail (no, I am not changing mail services...I like gmail and have a very set and established email address. It would cause a lot of problems trying to get my friends to memorize a new one...we like the one I have now).
    It should not be THAT DIFFICULT to allow access to gmail. Work with each other, you will be amazed at what you can accomplish. Thank you, NukeGeek

  • Does Firefox not work on Mac PPC paltform

    I am trying to find out if Firefox 5 does not work on Mac PPC platform.

    *Firefox 4 versions and later do not run on a PowerPC Mac.
    *Firefox 4 and later require at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.
    * http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/5.0/system-requirements/
    For an unofficial Firefox 4 compatible version (TenFourFox) that runs on PowerPC Macs with OS X 10.4.11 or OS X 10.5.8 you can look at:
    * http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
    *Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    *Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

  • Why does Thunderbird not work with Windows 8.1

    I have used thunderbird now for about 6 years, for all my website accounts. During that time I have had very few problems, about 9 months ago I started using Windows 8, I transferred all my accounts from my old machines running on XP pro to new machines running Win 8 and thunderbird ran ok. I have auto updates running so I am assuming both thunderbird and windows are updating whenever! About 4 weeks ago I started experiencing major problems with Thunderbird, it would start then freeze, then it would start again then freeze, if I ran it in safe mode it would work for a while. Now it opens and freezes, the message at the top just says ' Thunderbird is not responding'. Even in safe mode now it will not work! I have tried uninstalling and re-installing, I have even tried installing an earlier version of Thunderbird, I Have deleted the profile and forced it to produce a new one, I have spent hours trawling different sites trying to find an answer, and you know what, the only conclusion I could come to was, nobody seems to care whether this problem is solved or not, so reluctantly I have had to give up and I moved all my accounts to Outlook, which works perfectly with Windows 8.1. I think that should have been the answer, right from the start of the problem!

    The point is, it shouldn't matter if you're using McAffee or Norton or not using any anti-virus at all. Thunderbird works on XP. Thunderbird works on Vista. Thunderbird works on 7. But despite what the FAQ says, Thunderbird does _NOT_ work on Windows 8. This is a problem that many people are having and Mozilla _OUGHT_ to be able to fix it.
    I hate to bitch because Thunderbird is free and it's a damned good program. But this damned good program that worked through three earlier iterations of MicroSoft operating systems is unusable on 8.1. Anybody who has any knowledge of user experience can tell you that a program becoming unresponsive at random for anywhere from 1 to 3 minutes is simply not acceptable.
    This problem has been known for quite some time now. Is anybody in Mozilla support even looking at it?

  • Does Firefox 6 work with McAfee Site Advisor version 3.3.1.133, please?

    We have McAfee security software with Site Advisor 3.3, build version 3.3.1.133. Firefox 5 was not compatible with Site Advisor, so we are still running Firefox 4. Before downloading and installing Version 6, I'd like to know whether this will cause any problems, or disable Site Advisor, which is a useful tool. I haven't found any notes on the website giving this information.

    No it doesn't. There is a new 3.4 version of the Site Advisor which is supposedly compatible with Firefox 5 and 6.

  • How does syncing Notes work with Mountain Lion ?

    How does syncing Notes with Mountain Lion?

    Notes are synched via IMAP.  IMAP is a protocol most frequently used by email.
    So if you have an iCloud account and have set up a @me.com email address, that's what is used to sync.  For Gmail, that can be used as well, though Gmail's IMAP support has to be enabled on their site and their implementation is very nonstandard and can be problematic.  Best is to sync notes via iCloud.
