Firefox cannot connect to Internet.

Firefox 5.0 cannot connect to the Internet after changing the connection from my corporate connection to any other connection. Changing from any other connection to the corporate gives the same problem with the Firefox. IE 7 can connect to the Internet after the changing. Closing and restarting the Firefox allows to connect, but the closing loses all the open pages in the tabs.
The network setting is to use the system proxy settings.
How to resolve the problem? How to make Firefox not to lose connection, as IE7 does not lose?

The default Firefox home page is on your own machine, so sound like it is your Firewall.
Server not found / firewall / flushdns flushdns / (**article**)

  • Firefox cannot connect to internet, although internet explorer will, this problem just starter today, any ideas of what I should dpo

    Everytime I try to use firefox I get a message saying Firefox cannot connect to the internet. It was working fine yesterday. I can connect without any problems using Internet Explorer, so I know it is not my internet connection?

    Thanks, for responding.
    I did a hard reset of the linksys router. I changed the name of the wireless network. I did this using the PC that is wired to the router. The PC continues to work just fine.
    The G4 continues to be able to log-in in the wireless network, but there is no internet connection with the G4. Under Network Status, the G4 says "Airport is connected to the network. Airport has a self-assigned IP address and may not be able to connect to the internet" Is this something I should try to fix?
    Thanks!

  • Firefox cannot connect to internet yet other programs can!

    Whenever I load Firefox 3.6.7 It doesn't connect to the internet. It constantly says "Unable to connect" however, other browsers such as Opera, I.E, Chrome, these work, also same for Firefox 4.0 Beta 1 too.
    What is the problem?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Few hours ago ==
    == User Agent ==
    Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US) AppleWebKit/533.4 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/5.0.375.99 Safari/533.4

    Just so we're clear, when you say "I've tried all the tips" are you referring to the [[Firefox cannot load websites but other programs can]] article?

  • Have disabled IE on windows pc and am using Firefox as browser. iTunes now says cannot connect to internet even though Firefox working: suggestions

    Have disabled IE on windows pc and am using Firefox as browser. iTunes now says cannot connect to internet even though Firefox working: suggestions?

    There is a plugin for Firefox - see here
    http://latestversionplugin.com/current-version-plugin-itunes-application-detecto r.html
    It should be installed automatically if you install iTunes, but I guess when you installed iTunes you didn't have Firefox.  Just reinstall iTunes and it should work OK  (your iTunes library will not be affected)

    When you use the Airport utility what happens?
    What is in the System Preferences control panel for Network settings?

    Wi-Fi Setup Considerations
    Things to consider before you begin
    Start with a plan for the physical layout. Depending on whether you have an existing Wi-Fi network, or if you are using your AirPort Express as a standalone Wi-Fi device, there are several options available for you to choose from.
    When using Ethernet, Cat6 cable is recommended.
    The layout you choose should take into account environmental factors such as physical access, location, range, radio frequency interference, etc.
    You will need to consider what AirPort Utility settings to adopt.
    You will need to know whether you are using an AirPort Express (802.11b/g) or an AirPort Express (802.11a/b/g/n).
    If you will be using more than one Wi-Fi base station, it may be helpful to read the article Extending the range of your wireless network by adding additional Wi-Fi base stations.

  • ITunes cannot connect to Internet and iPad backup takes Forever

    Hi, I have a workstation, high end Windows 7, PC, everything works perfect except the iTunes.. here's my story:
    iTunes cannot connect to internet, nor can iTunes Store. I tried "Run Diagnostics" from Help menu, it showed "internet connection verified" green light BUT "Secure link to iTunes Store Failed" Red Light.
    Then I thought, lets check other Apple App, Safari.. which couldn't load google for a long time and didn't even show any error, anyway, so I quit and uninstalled it.
    I connected iPad for backup, it started all fine. At "Step 2 of 7" backing up, the loading/copying bar came half way up and stayed there for more than 20 hours. So, I quit that too. (Maybe, this is a different problem or connected, im not sure.)
    I also checked the setting in Norton Firewall and made sure iTunes was allowed full access. Internet is working perfect in all the other applications, even "Apple Software Update" is working fine, checking for updates and everything. I have latest version of iTunes by the way.
    THEN, I uninstalled everything Apple, left no trace of Apple in Program Files, and reinstalled iTunes. STILL SAME PROBLEM!!! Can anybody help? What could've happened, 'coz it used to work just fine before.
    Thanks Guys!

    start itunes.
    update podcasts - no response.
    click on store - no response.
    use diagnostics for connectivity - no response.
    sometimes, when i stop itunes from trying to connect, i will get an error code 11222

  • Cannot connect to internet in Solaris 10 OS.

    I setup X4500 running solaris 10 OS. But, I cannot connect to internet. I do not understand whats wrong with that. When I ping google or any other site from X4500 its not transferring any packets. I can ssh it from a remote computer. So, running fine on the network. I have a static IP for that. Could someone please help me with this.
    Thank you

    Can you ping your own default gateway's IP address?
    Can you traceroute to a public IP address like forums.sun.com (72.5.124.102)?
    Can you use nslookup to resolve hostnames to IP addresses?
    Does your /etc/resolv.conf have lines like:
    nameserver 192.168.0.10
    Where 192.168.0.10 is the IP address of your local DNS server(s)?
    Did you copy /etc/nsswitch.dns over /etc/nsswitch.conf before trying to reach websites?
    I hope investigating these questions help.

  • Cannot connect to Internet (using Safari)

    Hi all.
    I got my Macbook (unibody) for about 7 months ago. I have never had any problems with it, but now suddently Internet has stopped working. I am using only Safari. It just says "cannot connect to Internet" when i try get online. The weird thing is that Internet works to all other computers here at home, but not on mine. I have checked that all the cords are plugged in and all lights are on. I have tried using the internet cords for the other computers on my Mac, but they dont work. The cord i am using is working on other computers too, so there is nothing wrong with it. It is like my Mac doesn´t "recognize" that i have the cord plugged in. When i am on the systems settigns it says that everything is offline, and when i am on the Ethernet settings it does not have any IP adress written or anything, and i have chosen "Use DHCP".
    What should i do? I was watching a movie yesterday and had the laptop in my lap, maybe it got overheated or something? Or is it something wrong with the network card? Please help, this is so frustrating!

  • WRT54G2 Cannot connect to Internet in Vista

    I'm having WRT54G2 wireles router, but cannot connect to Internet when system is running Vista. I try on another system which is running XP is working fine. I have tried to turn off the Windows and anti virus firewall, but the resukt is still the same. I can see there is a list of available wireless network and can be connected with signal is excellent, but cannot connect to Internet.Wondering what should I do?

    What exact error message you are getting while trying to connect the wireless network ?
    Try to readjust the wireless settings on your router...Go to Linksys setup page...Under Wireless Tab..Change the channel to 11, If the SSID is linksys(default) then, change it to some unique name...and click on save settings...Go to the subtab "Advance Wireless Settings" under Wireless and change the Beacon Interval to 75, Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304, Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 >>Click on "Save Settings"...
    Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect...
