Mozilla shows NOT RESPONDING until it loads the pages completely, for FACEBOOK and checking EMAILS on yahoo and google.
You can't do anything, you should just wait.

I'm getting a similar error over here. Sporadically some sites won't load specifically in Safari; they open just fine in Opera, Firefox and Camino though. This is really annoying.
It's pretty clear it's nothing network related…

My desktop icon for firefox when double clicked wont load the browser?

My firefox browser wont load when clicking the desktop icon...i have uninstalled and reinstalled ( i have done this 3 times) and it will work for a day then it doesnt work again. Im at my witts end and im about to go back to IE.

i think i figured it out, at least for now. I installed Adobe reader about a week ago so i could retrieve my w-2's, and i dont think Fire fox liked it. I uninstalled Adobe reader and fire fox and then reinstalled fire fox and all seems to be well again. We will see...Thanks

I cannoy access my Yahoo new mail because Firefox won't load the page completely

When I try to open my yahoo mail (bellsouth.net), the progress bar at the bottom of the screen only fills up about half way. At the top of the screen, the information bar, where it shows all previous page that I have visited, continuously blinks a partial login url for Yahoo mail and never completes the login. I did screw around with some permission settings and unchecked some default settings. This was a link at the top of an advertisement. I right-clicked on "add choices" and navigated to the permissions tab. When I went back to the "ad choices"again, the blocks I previously unchecked were once again checked. However I was not able to sign in to Yahoo Mail because Yahoo would not recognize my password. I can still access my email with internet explorer.

If you are using a bookmarked link then go to the main Yahoo site and navigate from there to the wanted email page.

Macbook pro wont load ebay pages

Hi,
I finally took the plunge and got rid of Windows and bought myself a macbook pro. Not had it long but its already driving me crazy. It will not load ebay pages!?!? Every other internet site loads great but when I come to load ebay, I can search but when I click to view items it wont load the page!?!? I've tried everything I can think of, unintstalling safari, using chrome, reseting safari, emptying the cache, turning router off/on and turning airport off/on. Its got so bad I'm back to using my windows laptop!!
Can anyone help before I throw it through the window lol

Hello Daggers75
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Try this... go up on the menu bar to: *Safari > Preferences > Security* and see if *Accept cookies:* is set to Never, if so change it to *Only from sites I visit*.

When I click on a tab in the toolbar the tab flies off the screen to the right. Suddenly after using firefox for years I cannot load any pages

I'm using Windows XP. I've used Firefox for years but in recent weeks I've had the following problem. When I endeavour to open an internet site the tab appears in the toolbar at the bottom of the screen instead of loading the page. When I click on the tab it appears to fly across the right of screen and disappears from view. Fortunately we've left an internet page OPEN so that we can redirect our search via that. Today we had a power cut and now I cannot get Firefox to load anything. At the moment I'm using Explorer to write this. We've made no changes to our system and we're continuing to use the same virus checker we're had for years. (Kaspersky)
One last point. When I try to load any site in Links the tab changes to the correct name but then flies off as I've previously mentioned. When I right click on the tab and choose Max or Min I have no reaction. I've tried rebooting the computer and turning it off but this does not fix the problem. I've also uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled the latest version all to no avail. Please, can someone help? Micam

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Hello,
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!
Thank you.

A lot of tabs loads and tells me there was a problem loading the page. How can I stop all the tabs loading because ist slows down Firefox.

When I open Firefox, a lot of tabs try to open at the same time. They all say Problem loading the page. It happened after I tried to download a owners manual for Harley Davidson motor cycles. How can I stop all but one tab from opening.

This can be a problem with the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
Delete [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.

I am using VPN, and Firefox is loading the page. Before I reinstall the new version, the VPN was working okay. Whta happened, what I am supposed to do?

I am using VPN, and Firefox is loading the page. Before I reinstall the new version, the VPN was working okay. Whta happened, what I am supposed to do?
I have to use the VPN to acess the site because of the limitatation , and it was working okay. When I do turn off the VPN, then the sites will open, but if I activate the VPN, then site will load for ever, but they won't load.
Please advise me what to do?

You might try using the add-on 'NoSquint' which allows numerous zoom options specific to each page you visit & keeps your settings - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/nosquint/
If you want to go back to 3.6x, you will find it here:
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
In most cases you can simply "upgrade" (meaning downgrade) directly from the installation. It would be a good idea to save your passwords & bookmarks just to be on the safe side.

When i start Firefox ( 5.0.1 ) it loads the home page fine but along with it, it starts playing a video i watched earlier on youtube and it is invisible ( no where in tabs ) and i can just hear the sound. After playing the video one time it stops.

Sorry you are having problems. First of all try Fifrefox's safemode.
*[[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]
If that works post back for further advice.
Next step, if safe mode did not work.
First: Try a clean install, (you have had a none standard version installed previously) that involves deleting the program files. Then if necessary try troubleshooting by creating and using a clean empty Firefox profile.
See
* this recent post [/questions/940399#answer-377134]
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Clean_reinstall
Second: try a New Profile
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager#Creating_a_new_profile
* this will be an additional profile, it is still worth backing up any existing or currently working profile on a regular basis
**[[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
* Until you are absolutely confident about the repercussions I suggest
** always use an empty folder when creating a new profile
** never delete or rename profiles, just disable or remove shortcuts
** after creating a new test profile open it and check for any addons or plugins that may be have been included by default

Minefield just would not open pages, whatever I tries to type in the addressbar the URL just stayed there and nothing happened. Even if I opened a new tab and put a new url again it did not even start loading the page. This is happening since the last updates from today or yesterday. I already removed minefield and installed it again
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== today ==
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; Windows NT 5.2; Win64; x64; rv:2.0b3pre) Gecko/20100728 Minefield/4.0b3pre ( .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET4.0E)

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems
See [[Basic Troubleshooting|#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins"
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

You can discuss issues with Namoroka 3.6 and Minefield 4.0 nightly and alpha/beta builds at the MozillaZine Firefox Builds forum.

Help-Safari wont load any pages-others having same problem

Safari wont load any pages. Tried reinstalling Safari. Nothing. Zip. Notice that people on the Safari for Windows board are having the same problem.
WHAT IS GOING ON? Anyone know?
I get the menu bar, but not Bookmarks, etc. Cannot see a blank page. Cannot open a blank page, BUT my efforts (Untitled and Untitled 2) are reflected in the Dock. A right-click there shows that the pages are open, but obviously invisible.
I really need to fix this.
Firefox works. As do other apps.

EDIT:
The last thing I did before this happened was open a .pps file I got in email. If I do what was suggested in the Safari for Win post where someone is having the same problem: empty the cache, everything becomes greyed out. Its as if everything becomes invisible.
If I click on a link in Apple Mail, the URL shows up in the dock right-click as if it has mounted, but it hasn't. No window. Nothing.

Do you actually have a data plan from your cellular provider?
Being connected to 3G does not automatically indicate that a data plan exists on the account or is even set up correctly on the carrier side.

I click on a link and It won't automatically load the page; I want to change this setting. HOW??

Hi,
When I ope my mail in gmail. I click on a link to open a new tab and show me what ever it is I've just clicked on....Firefox won't just load the page like it did before I upgraded to this latest version. It says: Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page. and asks me to allow. I allow.
How can I tell firefox that if I have clicked on a link, I want to view it. That seems intuitive enough. I don't want to allow every time. I do this all day~
Thanks,
Melissa

See:
*Firefox > Options/Preferences > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"
The setting in "Options > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.
