I also have this problem and it just started in the last week or so. It seems to be dependent on my home network and the problem only exists with firefox. I have used chrome and IE8 with no issues. I can verify tomorrow that it only exists in my network but one thing I was able to test is that the problem exists even on my linux boot. I am totally dumbfounded with this problem and I can't find anything that will allow the gmail page to load. All other pages I have tried load fine, all be it a little slower than normal but they load. If anyone knows of a difference between firefox and all other browsers on how it goes through the router I would appreciate the info cause I don't know of any differences.

  • After using my browser (any of them) for a period of time I get a message saying that a page can't be opened. I have to reboot again. Clearing the cache doesn't help.

    After using my browser (any of them) for a period of time I get a message saying that a page can't be opened. I have to reboot again. Clearing the cache doesn't help. It's very annoying. It even happened in the middle of a chat with Apple online support. I'd be very grateful for help!

    Several things come to mind ... when you say your wife uses the same system with a different login and doesn't have issues, that suggests looking at your login items. Go to System Preferences (on your dock or on your hard drive in Applications), accounts, and on your account look at login items. Anything there that shouldn't be or isn't used? If you don't know, create a new account for yourself with no login items, and see if you still have the issue.
    Next, I would run OnyX, which is a free disk maintenance program. You can download it from http://www.titanium.free.fr/download.php . Do the tasks on the cleaning and maintenance tabs. Before using any disk maintenance software, you should have a system backup. I periodically run it, and others have found that it can help with performance.
    You might look at how you're system is using memory. You should have enough but it's easy to check. Bring up the Activity Monitor (on your hard drive in Applications/Utilities), and look at the system memory tab. Note page ins and page outs. If page outs are 10% to 15% more than page ins, you can use more memory for the programs you run. A page out occurs when memory is full and OS X has to write a section of memory to the hard drive. Too much of this can really impact performance. The optimal situation is for page outs to be zero.  Note these  values reset on a system boot.

  • Recently FireFox often has been causing 100% CPU usage and locks up until it finishes the process (various ones). Clearing cookies/cache didn't help. Any ideas?

    Windows 2000 SP4, 1g RAM, Firefox 9.0.1
    We keep IE6 and Firefox open simultaneously for 2 different mail accounts. Firefox was always much faster even with 3 or 4 tabs open, but for the past couple of weeks when trying to update a screen the CPU suddenly goes to 100% usage and of course nothing will move until the particular process is finished. Closing one or more tabs does not help. If I close Firefox completely with Task Manager CPU usage goes back down to nil. After restarting Firefox CPU usage may or may not go back up depending upon whether it tries to continue the previous task that was locking it up.
    It did not do this with Firefox 3.6 but then again it didn't happen immediately after updating to 9.0.1 either.

    100% CPU usage occurred most often toward the end of the working day when busy trying to print on-line postage. We don't have any memory-consuming plugins but according to the knowledge base articles Firefox memory usage can gradually increase during the day even if you do nothing. It seems that may be the problem so we close and restart Firefox more often now as that usually fixes the problem. However, if we get stuck on a particular website update that causes the CPU to to go 100%, we can always start Firefox without previous tabs so the update will stop, or simply use a different browser until we have time to let the computer play games with itself.
    So our workaround of restarting Firefox turns out to be the final solution (until we find something better - will post it if we do). Vic

  • Safari, maps, utube and app store will not open on my ipad1?  If I go to Settings and Safari and Clear Cookies, then Settings will close abruptly.  How to fix?

    Hi,
    Neither Safari, utube, maps, itunes or app store will open on my ipad1.  I tried to go to Settings, Safari and Clear Cookies - but when I do that Settings will abruptly close.  How to fix.  I tried restore - di not work.
    Thankyou,

    Try downloading any free app and see if that helps to reset the iPad and return your apps to normal. If that doesn't work ...
    Close all apps. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. If that doesn't help try this ...
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • Firefox will not open now - I just updated my privacy settings, and cleared cookies - what happened?

    I changed the privacy settings on Firefox preferences, including clearing cookies, history and cache, and now Firefox will not open at all. It said it had to restart after one of the privacy changes, but it didn't and now won't open by the dock icon or thru applications. What happened, and how can I correct the issue to start using Firefox again? Thanks.

  • How to delete a wrong password that Firefox always shows; I tried deleting cookies and profile, but it doesn't help.

    Firefox helps filling in forms (eg webmail inlog) but it also shows a wrong inlog (consisting of inlog name plus password). I want to remove wrong inlog names from Firefox. I already tried to remove all cookies for this site, and deleted the default profile from my Mac applications folder. But still several options for inlog on webmail are given. Where can I find the place where inlog suggestions are kept?

    *Click the (empty) input field on the web page to open the drop down list
    *Highlight an entry in the drop down list
    *Press the Delete key (on Mac: Shift+Delete) to remove it.
    Firefox will remember new form data when entered.

  • Ever since the last Firefox update (12 April 2013), Yoono 7.7.17 displays totally black; reinstalling Yoono doesn't help.

    At lunchtime yesterday when I went online, I got the message "checking add-on compatibility with this version of Firefox;" subsequently, the Yoono sidebar displayed as a solid black box. Disabling and re-enabling Yoono didn't help, nor did removing and reinstalling Yoono, nor did restarting the computer. I've come to rely on Yoono to advise me of YouTube & Facebook updates without me having to directly visit my YouTube or Facebook home page and scrolling through all the updates myself - and I really miss not having the Yoono sidebar around!

    please directly contact the extension developers - they can likely give you more detailed guidance and are the only ones who can fix bugs or make necessary adjustments in the addon for new firefox versions. thank you...

  • What's the difference between keep cookies until I close firefox and clear cookie history when firefox closes?

    In the settings for Firefox 33.0 (I am using Ubuntu 14.04 but the functionality is the same for Windows 7) there are two different ways to delete cookies when firefox closes. Or at least there seems to be.
    First is the keep cookies until firefox closes
    Second is to check the box to clear history when firefox closes and in the settings check cookies.
    What is the difference between these two options?
    I usually have both setup but I was noticing that a login was not saving for td canada trust easyweb, even though I have an exception set for it. Now I unchecked to delete cookies when clearing the history on close and the login saves correctly.
    This login saves 7 cookes under easyweb.td.com and 10 cookies under td.com and I have exceptions set for both. If I clear history on close and include cookies, half of the td.com cookies are gone when I close firefox and re-open. The same is true if I don't set the exception.
    So currently I cannot figure out a way to keep all the cookies if I clear cookie history when firefox closes. What is the difference when this is enabled?

    Let all cookies expire when Firefox is closed to make them session cookies.
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: Keep until: "I close Firefox"
    Create a cookie 'allow' exception for cookies that you would like to keep.
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: Exceptions
    Clearing "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, passwords, and other website specific data.
    Clearing cookies will remove all specified (selected) cookies including cookies with an allow exception that you would like to keep.

  • Suddenly I can no longer open my comcast email. I tried deleting cookies and emptying the cache, but neither helped. I can see the preview of the inbox, but not the whole inbox, and I cannot open any email. Help! I hate having to use IE!

    When I click on "open entire inbox" the font seems to get very large briefly,then it returns to the normal size.I can't see my whole inbox or open anything!

    When using Preferences to change the email to Xfinity Lite you loose certain valuable features available in the full verfsiion. This may work for some but I enjoy attaching photos in some emails and having them show in he message boz along with a message. It's a shame that two multi-national companys can't get their act straight. Comcast blames Firefox, Firefox blames Concast. In the meantime users are forced to use Internet Explorer. I hate this kind of stupidity. Millions of consumers are inconvenienced. I suspect that Microsoft and Comcast are schemeing in this matter.

  • I keep getting problem loading page. I try different sites and Firefox will not load. I've uninstalled and reinstalled but it doesn't help.

    I also can use internet explorer just fine so I know it's not a problem with my internet provider.

  • Why Firefox automatically clearing cookies/cache?

    Recently Firefox has been automatically clearing all log-ins and passwords on a seemingly random basis.
    After closing a browser window, I launched Firefox, and all of my standard logins (emails, homepage, etc.) have been cleared. This has happened 3 times now at seemingly random times. I'll go for weeks without an issue, and at one point open a browser and everything is logged out. This is after a successful close - no error shutdown, same day as other uses without issue.
