Firefox 26.0 loads flashing web page

I've notice for sometime now that my Windows 8.1 running Firefox 26.0 when loading pages and adding several tabs the pages start flashing and load slowly. It's as if takes it's time and then it flashes the page once it's done. The pages spin while loading until the action is completed.

Firefox will not load any web pages

Firefox will not load any web pages. I have tried every suggestion on the support page, deleted the program and reinstalled it 4 times, and ran a malware scan. None of these have solved the problem.

Hi JessN37,
We've got a whole [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/web-pages-dont-load troubleshooting section on failure to load pages]. Have you looked through any of that information? There is a ton of useful stuff there.
Hopefully this helps!

FireFox will not load any web pages and says to check firewall. What can I do?

I updated the new version of FireFox and now when I open it Google appears the way it should but when I type into the search bar or type in a web address it will not load. The message says to check my internet connection and my firewall to make sure firefox is allowed to use the web. Everything looks ok to me and I do not know how to fix it, help!

Firefox suddenly not loading several web pages properly

I've had Firefox 4 since the release date, but today it's been acting up - it's not loading certain webpages properly, removing all the formatting and just putting all the text/links/etc in a list along the left hand side of the window. It's also not showing some pictures at all any more, although they're all hosted on Photobucket. This is literally ther first time there's been a problem with it since updating, and I've not changed any settings on it at all, so I have no clue why it's suddenly broken. Is anyone else getting this?

Same issue for me suddenly began this morning (yesterday all was fine) - it's not that images aren't loading, it's quirky code errors. In some cases, CTRL-F5 fixes it... but, in others, it does not (e.g. Facebook only loads the most recent couple dozen status updates - clicking the link for more does nothing; I also did a daily check of fares on SW Airlines website - code for the reservation window won't load, and when I try manually typing it the info isn't accepted).
My short-term solution is to go back to IE8 - not happy about it, but at least all of the web pages I visit are properly working.

Firefox freezes when loading some web pages then the computer locks up

Sometimes, when loading a website, the browser freezes. Then the computer locks up and I have to use the power button to turn it off. There seems to be no pattern to this problem. I'm also not sure whether or not the problem begins within Firefox, but a web page was loading every time it happened. It has only started happening this week.

I seem to be having a very similar, if not exactly the same issue. I'm using the latest production FF 11.0 release on Win7 64 and as with this not only does FF freeze, but I can't task switch, or anything. The one thing I've noticed is that when the lockup happens, it always appears to be loading some custom font from a CDN, if I breathe deeply and slowly and allow the request to complete everything seems to eventually unfreeze and I can continue, so maybe something to do with implementation of custom font loading?

Firefox will not load any web page, other programs will. Continuously "connecting"

Firefox will not load any pages, but Google Chrome will. Firefox will 'load' the home page, but with any other site, the tab will continuously circle and say "connecting". I have tried clearing my cache, starting in safe mode, and restarting my computer. So far, nothing is working.

Update..when I open firefox from scratch, the main firefox pages on the home page seem to work. But as soon as I try to go anywhere else, IE going to a website in the address bar or even trying to access the defauly bookmark links, it just sits there loading but never brings anything up.

I just updated to 3.6.11 and now firefox won't load any web page

I just updated to 3.6.11 and now firefox won't load any webpage it
just times out I tried diableing add-ons no difference. I't on internet exploers now. Tried rebooting.

Do you use McAfee Antivirus/Firewall/Security products? McAfee released a security update that is blocking Firefox 3.6.11. This should be cleared up with the next McAfee update.

Firefox won't load any web pages but my other browser will

i updated to firefox beta. It ran for one day. Since then it loads a blank white page and won't go to any web sites. I don't get an error message or anything. It just sits there.

This was the problem with mine. I had to remove mozilla firefox from my trusted programs in my antivirus firewall settings and then open firefox... it added it back in. The problem occured when my AVG updated.

Firefox will not load any web pages since update

Using Galaxy Nexus, installed update today. I have ICS version 4.0.1. Pages will not load at all. Even the firefox pages on the home page will not load. I verified with using both wifi and my network, and checked the stock browser from the phone which works, but no success with Firefox. I uninstalled Firefox, restarted my phone, re-installed, and the same issues are happening. Any idea how to get this back to normal?

No web browser (firefox included) will load certain web pages on a Mac. "Unable to connect."

I try to go to those pages. Immediately (without loading or any wait) I get an "unable to connect" message. On Firefox, it says "Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.cj.com." On Safari, it says "Safari can’t connect to the server." Yet I can access these websites using a PC which is on the same wireless network.
What is going on?! I don't know where the problem is. Is it the network, the computer, a firewall? It's making me crazy because new sites keep getting added to this "blacklist," often sites that I need to access for my business. This is very inconvenient.
== URL of affected sites ==
http://www.cj.com, www.cracked.com, www.ezinearticles.com

If this happens with both Firefox and Safari, it may be a problem with the internet connection on your mac. Do other internet applications work (mail, etc)?
Check the Airport menu on your mac and confirm that the icon isn't greyed out or has an exclamation mark.

After I boot up from standby, Firefox won't load any web pages

If I let the computer go into standby on it's own, once I start it up again and open Firefox, it won't load any webpages...the wireless icon in the taskbar is showing connection, but nothing happens other than the address bar on Firefox says "loading"

I had this problem too. Running 32 bit Vista on a Toshiba Satellite U305 laptop. When you fold the lid it doesn't matter if Firefox is running or not, when you open it and the system wakes up, then Firefox 7.0.1 doesn't work any longer. Firefox either will not load if it wasn't running when the system went to sleep or it will soon hang if it was running. I started having this problem 2 weeks ago and have since then been uninstalling and reinstalling software that recently updated, checking configurations etc of ZoneAlarm, AVG, Acronis, etc. but nothing I did seemed to resolve the problem. Then this morning I was about to rebuild my system and remembered something I did a couple of weeks ago, install iTunes to support a used iPhone I was given.
I decided to try removing iTunes before undertaking a rebuild and this fixed the problem. Now that I think about it, I installed iTunes on this laptop when it was new and had to remove it because it slowed it down so much. It looks like they resolved a lot of iTunes performance degradation over the years but iTunes still appears to slow your system down and obviously, now also stops Firefox from working. Whose fault is it, Microsoft, Firefox or iTunes? Good luck having them work it out :-). Removing iTunes resolved my own problem. I can live without iTunes but not without Firefox :-)
Note: When the problem occurs, firefox.exe is running in the task manager but you can't kill it. Another problem for the research team. My own research found that MS Vista turns out to be one of the few OS's in the world that doesn't always provide for killing a process. (Lucky me for buying a laptop that has no XP drivers and doesn't warrant the expense of upgrading to 7). Reason for the kill problem? From what I understand, a kill instruction requested of Vista has it asking an application for permission before doing so. Problem is, hung applications rarely reply "sure go ahead".
///// UPDATE:////////
After 12 hours and 4 iterations of putting the laptop to sleep and waking it up, the problem has now recurred. So uninstalling iTunes is not the solution (although it seemed to help at first). Sorry if this confused anyone. My plan now it to regress to an older version of Firefox and see if that fixes the problem. However, I probably need a fresh install anyway after 3 years of overcrowding.

Hy does loading a web page in Firefox causes my external hard disk to spin up?

On OSX 10.6 and 10.7, Firefox will not load a web page unless my external hard disk spins up.
My thought is that Firefox is trying to cache or pre-fetch something, but why is it doing it on my external backup drive?
No other browser does this. Only Firefox. It's annoying because the backup drive is slow, so I have to wait for it to wake up, spin up, do whatever it needs to do, and THEN Firefox becomes usable again.

Maybe Firefox is searching for fonts.
Try to move all User fonts in Font Book to Computer fonts.
# Launch Font Book (/Applications/Utilities/)
# Open Font Book > Preferences
# Deselect: "Automatic Font Activation"
# Set the "Default Install Location" for fonts to "Computer"
# Select all User fonts
# Move the selected User fonts to Computer fonts
# Remove all duplicate fonts in Computer fonts
