Firefox can not load Gmail after longon. Other browsers, no problems

Hi:
When I click on Firefox icon, it takes a while to come up. Even after that, when I click on Gmail and log on, it keeps loading and loading and loading. It does not open the mail promptly. With Windows Internet Explorer, everything goes very fast. Why I should use Firefox at all? what and where is the problem?
Thanks.
Kris

Since yesterday morning Firefox can not load Facebook. Every other browser works fine. Tried many computers, both Windows and Macs, same issue. Help!

Facebook loads fine on multiple PCs and Macs in any number of browsers but NOT with Firefox on any of them. Started Friday AM. It tries to load but takes FOREVER and never gets "up". Frustrating since FF is my browser of choice despite the fact it has recently become the slowest of all the browsers I've tried. Be nothing like THIS slow. Other sites seem to be unaffected, just Facebook.

What you describe look like a problem of infection, for me.
I have W7 and FF34 as you, and FF is faster than Chromium.
So, except a problem of corruption of the code of your Firefox (and maybe problems generated by some addons or plugins), I' rather believe that there is malware(s) on your computer.
For FB, it could be the adware pushow**.dll, like pushow35.dll, in c:\windows\system32
What security programs do you use on your computer ?
If you want, you could also try to start Firefox in "safe mode", to see if there is a difference of speed and on FB.

Firefox can not load YouTube Website

I put youtube.com in address bar and Firefox can not load youtube website. It eventually times out. Any suggestions? I have tried clearing the cache, closing firefox and re-opening, downloaded firefox again, and the same problem persists.

See:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Error_loading_websites
You can try to reset (power off/on) the router.
Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer. 
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. 
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

Firefox will not open any webpages, but other browsers work. How can I fix it?

Firefox will not load any web pages. I recently ran a registry cleaner/virus scan on my computer and now Firefox 5 will not load ''any''webpages. It displays a "Problems Loading Page" error message. Other browsers still work. I tried uninstalling and re-installing firefox, even restoring to a previous restore point, but nothing seems to work. How can I fix this?

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.

Firefox is not going online while my other browsers are

for the past 4 days, when i click on the firefox icon it automatically installs an update that i cannot stop. then the window opens and it does not go online, while my other browsers are.

Do you have "Work Offline" checkmarked in the File menu? If so, click it to remove the checkmark.
If not, please do the following.
Click '''Help''', then '''Restart With Add-ons disabled'''.
Next, click the button called "'''Continue without making changes'''". Firefox will subsequently restart in Safe Mode which means all your add-ons will be disabled.
Then go to '''Help '''| '''About Firefox '''and click the '''Check For Updates''' button to download version 4.0.1

Firefox will not load gmail

Gmail will not load in Firefox browser. I can get it in IE. I have disabled add-ons, extensions, reset theme to default, renamed extensions.?? files, re-started in safe mode, and a few other options, but it still won't load. Get "The connection was interrupted
The connection to www.google.com was interrupted while the page was loading." However, I can go to www.google.com, but can't get to the login page or gmail link. I can get to other links there.
I have cleared the cache and cookies several times, ran in safe mode and removed themes....Did not work.

Firefox cant find a server after updating. other browsers can. tried all suggested fixes, any suggestions?

"Server not found
Firefox can't find the server at....."
keep getting this when trying to access the internet. only started happening after updating to firefox .36
Running windows xp, firefox has been working great until now. ive tried all the suggested fixes, firewalls etc.
Chrome and explorer are working fine but im a firefox fan and dont want to change. any help would be gratefully appreciated

Hello gregmurphy128,
This does sound like a Firewall issue. Are you running any security software on your PC?
If not, here are instructions for Windows Firwall: [[Configure Windows Firewall to allow Firefox access to the Internet]]
Thanks,
Curtis

Firefox won't load any websites but other browsers connect with no problem. error message: connection has timed out. deleting browsing history did not work.

I also tries removing firefox and reinstalling it - still did not work.
I checked - the firewall wasn't blocking firefox , so it's not that.
As far as I could find my antivirus (AVG) also was not causing the problem.
I'm at a complete loss - any ideas what has gone wrong?

Type '''about:preferences#advanced'''<Enter> in the address bar.
Under '''Advanced,''' Select '''Network.'''
Look for '''Configure How Firefox Connects''' and press the '''Settings''' button.
Check the settings.
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

When I change albums on my Porta website Firefox does not refresh the site although other browsers do.

I have a Porta website using 'simple viewer' and when I update the albums it usually is fine, but today I changed the content in 2 albums and although they are updated on other browsers, the changes are not showing in my Firefox. I have deleted history etc. in case that was causing a delay in the browser refreshing, but it has made no difference. Does anyone have any ideas please?
== This happened ==
Just once or twice
== I changed my website content.

Try clearing the browser cache.
Tools > Options -> Advanced >> Network tab - Offline Storage = Clear Now button.

Firefox crashes when loading Gmail, and random other pages, and freezes often.

Firefox upgraded itself to 3.6.10 sometime last Friday, I believe, and every since I cannot get into gmail, and it freezes often. When I try to log into gmail it will crash immediately. Sometimes if I click "sign in" rather than hitting "enter" it will load, but will lock up or crash within minutes or seconds. It also will lock up if I have more than three or four tabs open, often when loading a video, and crashed while loading Nexis, which I use often for work to do research.
I have disabled add-ons, disabled extensions, run in safe mode, uninstalled and reinstalled, rebooted, downgraded, re-upgraded. Nothing has worked.

Problem does not seem to occur on a modern Win XP nebook with 1 gig RAM, but does on a relatively old laptop running Win 2000 with 98.5 MB ram.
Error message states that a script is running from a Firefox directory and asks to stop it. Crash occurs anyway!

Firefox can't load gmail while safari can. none of the "help" solutions work. help!

see above. i've cleared cache and cookies, etc, etc, and nothing helps. this is so frustrating.

You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
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 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 > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] 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.

Adobe programs can not be opened after installing because of a problem

Hello, I just got my copy of Adobe Creative Suite 5.5. The installation procedure seemed to be ok. However when I try to open any of the Adobe programs I've got an error message saying:
Adobe Indesign, or photoshop, ... CS5.5 cannot be opened because of a problem.
Check with teh developer to make sure it works with this version of Mac OS X.
My MAC OS X version is 10.7.2

you can try launching the softwares from a different user account. cs5.5 should work fine with 10.7.2
