Firefox cannot load websites like Pandora

I was listening to music on Pandora and it randomly stopped playing the song. When I tried to reload Pandora I get an error message that says "We're sorry but the site does not appear to be loading in your browser." It provides a link to a help page, but I could not find an answer that solved the issue there. Pandora still loads for me in IE. I updated Firefox and restarted my computer, but it still will not load.

  • Firefox cannot load websites but other browser can

    background - family community home pc...mozilla worked great for the longest time (along side IE)...all of a sudden mozilla can't connect to any website...IE always can (yuk)
    troublshooting steps (still can't connect to web w/firefox):
    1. Removed Mozilla, re-installed, same results
    2. Searched for all mozilla folders. Deleted two folders and also daughter's mozilla iphone folder. Removed Mozilla, re-installed, set connection to "no proxy", same results.
    3. Ran "House Call" - no malware found.
    Help! do not like IE!

    *What exactly happens, or does not happen and do you get any error messages ?
    *Is it all websites you have a problem with, or only some ?
    * What happens if you work offline, can you load web pages that are saved on your own computer ? <br> (save something with IE, -as HTML web page files - maybe this page, then try opening it with both Firefox and IE)
    Can you use firefox to look at your local disk such as (depending on your setup) ''file:///C:/''

  • Firefox cannot load websites but other programs can

    Firefox cannot load any webpages, but IE can.
    I have tried everything suggested. This problem happened befoer I updated Firefox and did not resolve after I updated firefox.
    I tried changing internet settings, disabling firewall, and even disabling IVP6, but nothing is working.

    One day it was fine, and the next day it stopped working! I have tried everything suggested under the topic "Firefox cannot load websites but other programs can."

    You should e able to install FlashPlayer separately on IE and Firefox. So you may use Flash 11.3 on IE and 11.2 or 10.3 on Firefox.
    Work from the administrator account. First of all sort out Firefox, use the Adobe uninstaller to uninstall Flash before reinstalling 11.2 Afterwards check that IE is ok, the Uninstaller may have changed that so you may need to reinstall Flash on IE.
    * see instructions in [[flash 11.3 crashes]]
    You are apparently using an outdated Firefox 8. That is not secure you should update to the latest Release Firefox 13 (or within a day or so Firefox 14)
    You may also encounter problems relating to use of RealPlayer software and that software may affect use of FlashPlayer 11.3
    * see also [[Fix problems with RealPlayer add-ons]]
    * a user ''blacksabath710'' recently posted a workaround in [/questions/931055] suggesting use of free software from http://www.dvdvideosoft.com/
    P.S.
    When you finish set Firefox's FlashPlayer not to upgrade, and until this issue is resolved do not follow suggestions from Adobe, or Plugincheck etc. to upgrade Flash.
    Use this test page form Adobe in each browser and account to check Flash is working ok
    * http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html
    The test page will display version information and error messages or a Flash animation to prove flash is working.

  • Firefox cannot load websites, but other programs can. Listed guide/faq not effective.

    I went through the FAQ guide for firefox not loading webpages, but after having changed both boolean setting in the about:config section of the firefox advanced settings, deleting and re-adding it to the program permissions list in my firewall (mcafee antivirus 2011), and even attempting to completely disable the firewall for a period of time, I am still unable to browse the internet on firefox. Internet explorer, however, does work.

  • All website went "Not Found HTTP Error 404. The requested resource is not found." and the "Firefox cannot load websites but other programs can" page is not help

    A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Flash player not loading websites like pandora or memrise

    On those websites, the flash player just continues to load until the website times out. I've done the pandora troubleshooting, and I've reinstalled the flash player multiple times. The only thing that worked for awhile was uninstalling and reinstalling chrome. However, if I happened to close chrome, it would not work the next time I started chrome. I have no idea why. I tried firefox and internet explorer and went through the adobe page on proper installation for them as well. I've deleted all cache data, and changed my settings in chrome to clear browsing data, I disabled ad block, I have plugins set to run automatically, I have memrise and pandora allowed in the pop up blocker.
    Here is the plugin information from chrome:
    Adobe Flash Player (2 files) - Version: 11.7.700.179
    Shockwave Flash 11.7 r700
    I also tried disabling my avg and spybot from running too, but that didn't work either.
    I also tried running chrome as administrator.
    I restarted my computer multiple times while attempting to fix this.
    I cannot think of anything else to do.
    Please help me!

    "Install Flash...", nope...enable Shockwave.
    My experience is my own, but this may work for you.
    Opening Pandora in Chrome a link to download Flash v10 or higher appears. Huh? It worked last week before I re-installed and slimmed down the add-ons/bloatware on my laptop. Turned off and allowed EVERYTHING including plug-ins like Pandora suggests as a test. Still nothing. Tried again but on a whim instead of allowing all plug-ins, I clicked "disable individual plug-ins" and found my post-install slimming last week wasn't being reset on the previous page so incrementally I re-allowed each one individually and found allowing the Shockwave add-in fixed it.

  • Firefox cannot load websites but IE can

    I have Firefox 8.
    I am running vista.
    Firefox should load the homepage, Set to aol.com, but it won't load anything.
    The browser just shows a white dotted box for an icon.
    It says Connecting.. for 3 seconds and stops.
    IE can open every website.
    I have a stable internet connection.
    I have allowed Firefox through my firewall.
    Just need help loading any page possible.

  • Firefox cannot load websites but other programs can (link to solution is dead)

    Firefox either takes a long time to load some pages or simply does not load them, ever. I've just tested it and tried in IE9 to load one of those pages that FF never loads. IE9 loaded it immediately. Browsing through your FAQ pages, i found a question about this problem, but when i click it, it turns out the link is dead

    The default of the pref network.http.max-connections has been increased from 30 to 256 in Firefox 6+ versions.
    You can try to decrease the value of the pref <b>network.http.max-connections</b> from 255 to a more modest setting like 30 as used in Firefox 3 versions.

  • Firefox cannot load websites when Internet Explorer can.

    I have read your article about this but I cannot follow your instructions as the only "tools" I can find to click on is in IE and brings down "internet options", which has an "advanced" tab (not a panel) and no settings tab. Am I misssing something? I am having the same problem on my desk top! Both have just occured in the last 2w. Thanks; Robin

  • Firefox cannot load websites when connect/disconnect from any VPN connection

    I am consistently uses OpenVPN and RamsesVPN connectivity. But whenever i switch between the VPN connectivity or connect into any VPN or disconnects existing VPN connectivity. My Firefox Browser is unable to load new webpages/Refresh existing open TABS.
    In order to restore, i have to restart my Browser each time, whereas i am not facing this problem with Chrome.
    I am running with Windows 7 Enterprise edition, and latest Firefox version.
    Is there any method to avoid these restarts ?

    Hi, this bug is old, but it has useful info for VPNs
    See for reference Bug 702111
    And there are built in features on the about:config file that you can tweak the number of connections and allowing pipe lining: [http://support.vpnsecure.me/articles/ssh-tunnelling-proxy-troubleshooting/tweaking-firefox-for-best-performance-security Third party information on these connections]
    Other suggestions I have seen are to add bookmarks while logged into either vpn. (For example, bookmark the frequent sites you use in either vpn in separate folders)
    In Firebug, when you connect or refresh the page when moving from one VPN to the other, do you see a termination in the connection to the first vpn?

  • Firefox cannot load websites but others can, websites look wrong, started happening after i ran some update. i am not computer literate

    that is all the details i can provide, is there anyway for phone assist otherwise i'm screwedc

    Start with this;

    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
    '''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/configure-firewalls-so-firefox-can-access-internet Configure firewalls so that Firefox can access the Internet.]''' {web link}

  • Firefox cannot load websites but other programs can. I followed the problem solving steps, however I can't access to any web site.

    I followed the following step (in spanish):
    Configuración de la conexión para Firefox
    Si te conectas a Internet a través de un servidor proxy que tiene problemas de conexión, no podrás cargar páginas web. Para comprobar la configuración del proxy de Firefox:
    1.En la parte superior de la ventana de Firefox, en la barra de menú, haz clic en el menú Herramientas, y selecciona Opciones....
    2.Selecciona el panel Avanzado.
    3.Selecciona la pestaña Red.
    4.En la sección Conexión, haz clic en Configuración... .
    5.Cambia la configuración del proxy:
    ◦Si no te conectas a Internet a través de un proxy (o no sabes si te conectas a través de uno), selecciona Sin proxy.
    ◦Si te conectas a Internet a través de un proxy, compara la configuración de Firefox con la de otro navegador (como Internet Explorer. Consulta Guía de configuración de proxy de Microsoft) (O Safari. Consulta Guía de configuración de proxy de Apple).
    1.Cierra la ventana de Configuración de conexión.
    2.Haz clic en Aceptar para cerrar la ventana de OpcionesHaz clic en Cerrar para cerrar la ventana de preferenciasCerrar la ventana de preferencias

    You need to allow for the loopback connection in Firefox, as an "outgoing" connection.
