Facebook/Twitter DO NOT LOAD TEXT/IMAGES correctly in Windows 8 in ANY version of Firefox

The title sums it up nicely. I bought a new laptop 2 days ago and Facebook and Twitter do not load correctly in Firefox (ANY AND ALL VERSIONS - I have been installing/uninstalling/reinstalling nonstop like a maniac). They load in every other browser just fine.
Basically what happened is I installed Firefox on the new laptop (first thing I did), loaded Facebook and Twitter for the first time, and once I closed those pages and re-opened them, they started to appear with the text flush to the left and without some images. Almost looks like a part of the CSS code is missing.
I have tried ALL of the solutions posted on these support forums. None of them are permanent
Clearing my cookies/cache IS NOT an adequate solution. It works for the first time and then I have to do it every time I close and re-open FB/Twitter. Since the entire Windows 8 O/S concept is based on the "social experience," this seems somewhat ironic. Either it's a problem with my new laptop but I doubt it, as I said before, every other browser and webpage work fine.
My conclusion is there's a problem between Firefox/Windows 8/Facebook and Twitter. If someone could just confirm or shed some insight to development problems or suggest permanent fixes, that would be greatly appreciated and save me a lot of headache. As it stands, I'm about to throw this laptop out the window. >_> I'm very much not impressed with the hassle this transition has been.
Google Chrome has always been a close second to Firefox in my eyes and it looks like I'll have to switch over, despite the fact the former does not have a customizable bookmark toolbar.
Thanks in advance.
I have NORTON INTERNET SECURITY if anyone can suggest any settings change.

Hey Firefaux,
I changed a setting in Firefox and it seemed to have solved my problems. Since CTRL+F5 seemed to work as a quick fix, that told me it was something to do with the cache.
My browsers on my old laptop had never had their cached cleared (I have a problem deleting things :P).
Go to Tools --> Options --> Network and under Cached Web Content, your cache may be set to 350mb just like mine was in my new Firefox. I had a moment of clarity and thought, "maybe since my computer is so new, I haven't browsed enough to fill my cache with information from various different sites, as opposed to just Facebook, Twitter, and Youtube."
So I ticked the box "override automatic cache management" and set it to 0mb.
Ever since then, I've had no problems with browsing (in Firefox, haven't attempted anything else since the problem was fixed immediately).
I know nothing about caches and whatnot, but with the limit set to 0, I believe this is forcing the browser to reload a new page from scratch EVERY time since I have not allowed *anything* to be saved to memory.
Hope this helps, please let us know if it works for you as well. I know I was experiencing massive buyer's remorse for days because of this problem.

  • Lightroom 5 not loading older images correctly

    I'm going through older photos that were edited elsewhere and then added to my catalogue as DNGs while I was using Lightroom 4. Now as I go back, they are not loading correctly with my edits, but they were on Lightroom 4. Did something happen during the upgrade? Or is there a way to get them to register my edits?

    You have just described a 2 step process.
    Import photos into LR4
    Convert LR4 catalog to LR5 (side issue: exactly how did you do this, what exact steps did you follow)?
    So when did the editing happen? Before or after step 1? Before or after step 2?
    In your LR4 catalog, do the photos appear with edits?

  • Latest version does not load web pages correctly with windows 8 system

    I did a new install of Firefox (latest version) on a new Windows 8 laptop (I did not import anything). When I go to Hulu & Facebook (as an example, this happens to almost all sites I try to load) the pages do not load correctly, I get hyper links on the left side of the screen. If I refresh then the pages load correctly.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) 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 and the plugin-container 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.

  • Instagram, Facebook, Twitter photos not loading, Getting Kicked off xbox live, random drop outs.

    Hi everyone, Here's an issue for you to solve. Im sure it can't be fixed, and I know multiple people that have this issue, and it is unnacceptable.  Before I start, here is the router I am using: Telstra Gateway Max. Ok so heres the problem. I have an android phone, well two on my network and they both have the same issue. The iPhones and iPads seem to be OK. i don't have these issues on the computer either (Macbook Pro and Dell Inspiron). When I go onto instagram for example, all of the text loads just fine, but the images just sit on 0% and stay like that until it says unable to download. Facebook is usually ok, but sometimes has the same issue, and Twitter, same as instagram. This also happens on the Google Play Store when trying to download apps, and other random things. I have tried on the 2g and 5g networks and both same issue, but strangely enough, as soon as I connect to 3G/4G network, everything loads great. Why should I have to use my data when at home? Whats the point of paying $200+ a month for a service that doesn't even work! Also, with Xbox Live, this happens on the 360 and Xbox One. I have Two 360's on the network, one being wired (ethernet), the other on wifi. The xbox one is also connected to the same switch as the wired 360. Don't give me any of that garbage about buying a new switch, because this one works perfectly fine.
    I have a moderate NAT type on some games, and sometimes I just get randomly disconnected. I have monitored the lights on the router, and they stay normal, some flashing, some solid. Basically, everything is normal. The other xbox's drop off at random times. The annoying thing is, when I connect to the Telstra Air network (off my router) everything loads fine on my phone, and I don't want to be forced to use that terrible 3mbit connection. Oh and while I'm at it, the telstra air app says I don't have a valid account, even though when I manually connect to telstra air through wifi settings on my laptop or phone, it works fine. Back to the xbox, I have forwarded all the ports needed (SHOULDN'T HAVE TO DO THAT), I have changed my firewall to low... Basically, Telstra, get your **bleep** together, and help me with my issues, or give me some pointers.

    So someone else with Android devices on an entirely different network seems to have the same issues. This doesn't rule out the Android devices at all, in fact it suggests maybe there is more to it
    The only way to make sure it's not the other switch introducing problems is to take it out of the equation. That means running direct connections to the modem. I realise it might be a pain in the rear end though. I user ethernet over power for one of xboxs.

  • My facebook page will not load properly just shows the text headings on page no graphics like there should be.

    My facebook page will not load properly just shows the text headings on page no graphics like there should be.

    You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
    You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
    *Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
    *Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    *Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
    Clear the cache and remove cookies only from websites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    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

  • On my MacBook Pro when I am connected to the internet via an Ethernet cable, Facebook pictures do not load. They show up as white boxes with blue question marks.

    On my new MacBook Pro when I am connected to the internet via an Ethernet cable, Facebook pictures do not load. They show up as white boxes with blue question marks. This also happens on a website editor. But, when I am connected to the internet via Wifi, everything load properly. This is my work computer, so I have to be able to connect through the Ethernet cable to access everything. Please help me!

    I mostly use Safari. But I also tried it on Firefox, Mozilla, and Camino. Mac OS X. It's my work computer, so I've only tried it at the office. I have to be connected through the Ethernet cable to access my files and email on the server.

  • Swf does not load the images on the web

    I made a swf that works perfectly on my computer.
    The swf does not load the images, cal with the buttons, when I use the swf on the web.
    I think the problem is due to the fact that the web changes the path of the file, that is called with the following variable:
    var ImmageUrl: String = "MyFolder2 /" +  MynamePic +  ".jpg";
    The path is C:/MyFolder1 "(with the swf)" /MyFolder2 "(with the pics)"
    Any hint ?
    Thank you.

    When you place an swf in a web page, any files that the swf loads have to be targeted as if the swf is sitting in the same folder as the html page.  If you have the swf in a different folder than the html page, then you need to adjust the paths for the files it loads so that it acts as if it is in the html page's folder.

    all of sudden comcast and facebook pages do not load when i try to access them on my mac.  all other websites are fine. any one out there having the same issue?

    That's just not right - I mean, it really wrong to have to use a Windows machine to access your Facebook account. Can you pull up Comcast on IE as well?
    Something's going on and I'm surprised that deleting your cache and cookies for those sites didn't work.
    Let me fool around a bit - what's your primary browser?
    Curious,

    Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

    Unable to load ITUNES onto PC HP, windows 7 Home Version.  Error message reads "Application Application Support not found".  "Uninstall and reload".  I have done that 4 times on Explorer and Firefox without success.  Help??

    I had gotten a similar problem, except with "provider services", i believe, but i solved it by copying sqlite3.dll from E:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support to E:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support. doing that solved my first problem, but now i have been getting the error described in this topic (unable to load dataclass info... etc.). i tried reinstalling itunes (i already had 9.1.1, and thats what i reinstalled) by using the method described on apples site (using the "remove programs" tool in the control panel) and then downloading and installing itunes. when i opened it again, i still got the same error, and just now i got an error saying "the instruction at "0x00aadb6b" referenced memory at "0x00000008". the memory could not be read" it gave me the option to cancel and debug, or to press ok and terminate the program. I tried pressing cancel, and the popup went away but nothing else happened. a minute later the popup was back, so i pressed ok and itunes quit. Upon opening Itunes again, i got the very same error. sorry for the long post, but its really been bugging me. thanks for any help you might give, and if you need anymore info, feel free to contact me.

    You can get the missing assembly (Microsoft.SqlServer.Diagnostics.STrace.dll)
    by installing the "Shared Features" of SQL Server 2008.
    You could only install SQL Server 2008
    R2 (any edition) on Windows 7.
    Do not install more than 1 SQL Server 2008 R2 edition
    into the same computer; Some of the components are not compatible.
    E.g:  BIDS from R2 Express Advance edition cannot
    recognize Integration Service from R2 Enterprise Trial edition - it would throw above missing dll error.

  • Could not load assembly or file "crystaldecisions.windows.forms"

    Hi,
    I have a VS2005 C# .net application which works fine when I run on the programming machine.
    Now , I copy all files (dll , pdb , exe) from the Project's "..bin\Debug " directory .
    These files I transfer to another computer which does not have VS 2005 .NET installed (or any separate crystal reports program), but it does have .netframework 1 and 2, so that I can test the application on that "test" computer.
    When I double click the .exe , I log in and then I click a menu item which shows a form which has a crystalreport viewer in it.Here , an unhandled excepion error is shown like this...

    Thanks -

    Hello Dimitar,
    If Crystal Reports is not properly integrated into your VS IDE you'll usually see that kind of message.
    You have to make sure that Crystal Reports is properly integrated into Visual Studios.  Do you have a full version of Crystal Reports installed on your Visual Studios .NET 2005 development machine? If so, what is the version of Crystal Reports?  Open Crystal Reports, go to the Help menu, and then About Crystal Reports.  What is the version number and name (listed near the top)?
    Now open Visual Studios and go to Help > About VS.  In the list of Installed Products what does it say for Crystal (usually near the bottom of the list).  Please DO NOT include your keycode - just what it says for Crystal.
    Sincerely,
    Dan Kelleher
