Firefox cannot load certain websites and I've tried all suggested options to fix the problem.

I cannot load certain websites (my bank, some public/civic offices, etc.) on Firefox or Internet Explorer (I usually use Firefox) and have tried all the suggested options in Firefox Help to remedy this problem: clearing cache and cookies, making sure no proxy is selected, allowing cookies). How do I fix this? I use a broadband internet connection that is shared.

Start Firefox in 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).
<b> To Enable SafeMode </b>
*You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
*''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: "Firefox > Quit Firefox"; Linux: "Firefox/File > Quit")

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> 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).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

    If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.
    *Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
    *Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
    *Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions"
    *Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).
    If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
    Make sure that you do not block third-party images, the permissions.default.images pref should be 1.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load
    There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images.

    Hello kadur778, if you cannot open websites that needs login (username and password) like Gmail or Facebook then delete the cookies.sqlite file and any cookies.sqlite-journal files in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox#Windows profile folder] and restart firefox.
    see for more info : [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/fix-login-issues-on-websites-require-passwords#w_remove-corrupt-cookies-file Remove corrupt cookies file]

  • Adobe flash keeps crashing and reloading and changing timeout per your instructions, does not fix the problem. What else can be done?

    I recently upgraded Firefox and now I cannot use it if I want to watch something involving Adobe Flash because it crashes. I read your article and made sure I am up to date on all programs through Firefox check page. I reset the timeout on the adobe flash to -1 per your article. Your article states it may crash and just re-load it. I have done all your advice and it still will not run. I am now using Windows as my default browser because I don't have time right now to research this on my own and solve it. I don't know if you are aware that the fixes you suggested are not fixing the problem.

    Try reinstalling the previous version of Flash - 10.1 r 102 and get rid of that 10.2 r152 version. ''I never updated Flash and I haven't had a problem with Firefox 4.0 on WinXP.''

    What happens if you go to iTunes > File > Devices, do you get the option to Sync iPhone?
    You could try a reinstall of iTunes. OS X Yosemite: Reinstall apps that came with your Mac

    I have just reformatted my drive and reinstalled creative cloud and lightroom. When i open it, it says there is another version running the catalog and i have to switch to it to fix the problem, but there is no other version on my computer. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Where did you put the LR catalog?
    Did you install the same version of LR, which one?
    OS and version?
    Open the folder where the catalog (*.lrcat) is located. If you see a file with lock in it while LR is not running, delete it.
    Now try to start LR again.

    The latest beta update for Firefox, version 3.6.4, prevents plugins from crashing Firefox. Instead, when a plugin crashes, only the plugin itself will be affected.

  • The same problem again with HP Simple Pass fingerprint reader after upfrading from Firefox 4 to Firefox 5. I have already installed HPSimPlePass 7.0.74.0 to fix the problem after upgrading to Firefox 4.

    I have a HP Pavilion dv6 with a fingerprint reader. I had the same problem as many other people when upgrading to Firefox 4, : I couldn't use the HP Simple Pass to enter a website needing a username and password by just swiping my fingerprint. I fixed the problem by downloading the new HPSimPlePass 7.0.74.0. This fixed the problem and I was very happy. Since upgrading to Firefox 5 I have the same problem again, but I already have the new version of HP Simple Pass. How can this be fixed so that I can use this fingerprint scan feature again, or where can I download Firefox 4 again?

  • Ghost Excel workbook opens each time I start excel and prevents formulas - tried all suggested solutions without luck

    Hi
    When I start excel and open any workbook a 'ghost' work book opens it doesn't contain cells and is just greyed out. When I am working on a document whenever I start to write a formula the ghost wbook opens and I cannot see the original document to complete
    the formula. If I open multiple workbooks I sometimes get a ghost workbook for each doc that is open - after a while I get error message to say not enough reources to do even simple tasks like save work or open a document.
    I have posted on several forums and tried all suggested solutions without luck - this is really preventing me from using excel which I need daily. Personally though I am only intermediate user I think it may have something to do with a workbook that I downloaded
    that had macros in it but I cant be sure
    Any help greatly appreciated
    Thanks
    Dave

    Hi Dave,
    First make sure have installed the latest update. Second, we can repair Office 2013 from Control Panel > Programs and Features. Third, open Excel 2013 in safe mode, if it works fine, disable some 3rd-party application add-ins.
    Could you please share a screenshot of this “ghost” workbook and upload it to OneDrive? I’ll analyze it in detail as soon as accessing it.
    If there is anything about this issue, don’t hesitate to tell me.
    Best regards,

    Yes, the message is self-explanatory. You need a carrier who supports Apple's activation policy for an iPhone.
