Firefox cant connect to the internet after a while of being on

Hi,
I posted this question some time ago and since i didnt get any working solution and I still have this issue I am reposting it now. My problem is simple: I start up my computer and open Firefox. I browse the internet normally. No problem so far. But lets say I go to take a nap or I just stop browsing to do something else on the computer without closing Firefox or whatsoever. After a while I go back to browsing on Firefox (the same window with the same tabs are still open) but now no page will finish loading no matter how long i wait.
So I close Firefox and open it again. Then I get a popup error saying Firefox is still running and that i need to close it. When i close that popup then i get another error saying it was unable to load my profile. I close that and reopen Firefox. Now it loads pages normally again but but only for 1 or 2 minutes and not any more after that. I repeat the whole process and i still get the same results until i restart my computer.
I have checked for any viruses and i have none at all and there is absolutely no problem with my overall connection since no other programs have this problems only Firefox. What can i do?
Thank you.
Edit: Im having the issue right now and I just checked but seems like some tabs work and some dont so i really dont get it.

Hi again,
I have been testing and I still have this issue. I ran the recommended antivirus multiple times and seems like i got rid of the speedbit malware and so but it didnt any good. What can I do now? This problem is driving me crazy.
Thank you.

  • Firefox disconnects from the internet after a while

    Hi,
    i have the latest version of firefox and in the recent days i have been experiencing a very annoying issue. My computer is on and connected to the internet for many hours a day. This has never been a problem so far but now i have noticed Firefox suddenly becomes unable to connect to the internet after a while of being on. No page will finish loading no matter how long i wait.
    I try by closing and reopening Firefox and I get an error saying Firefox is still running and that i need to close it and when i close that error then i get another error saying it was unable to load my profile. I close that and reopen Firefox which at the beginning works normal again but after 3 or 4 minutes it disconnects again. I repeat the whole process and i still get the same results until i restart my computer.
    No other programs have this problems only Firefox. What can i do?
    Thank you.

    Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.
    *http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/how-to-start-windows-in-safe-mode/
    It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) 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 install for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Problems connecting to the internet after Upgrade from windows 8.1 pro

    Cant connect to the internet after upgrading to windows 8.1 pro, what can i do to rectify this problem?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You can also try to install the older version in compatible mode:
    Windows 8.1 Wifi showing "limited" or "No Internet Access"
    Solution: revert your network adapter driver back to an older version
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/dennis_schnell/archive/2013/08/31/windows-8-1-wifi-showing-quot-limitied-quot-or-quot-no-internet-access-quot.aspx
    In addition, disable power management on your network driver:
    Open Network and Sharing Center.
    Click the Change adapter settings link in the upper left of the navigation pane.
    Right click the network connection you want to enable/disable power management support on and click Properties .
    Click Configure .
    On the Power Management tab, clear the Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power check box.
    If the issue still persists, please upload the event log for our research:

  • I just upgraded to firefox 6 and now cannot connect to the internet. IE still works fine but firefox won't connect. Any suggestions on how to get the new firefox to connect to the internet?

    I just upgraded to ff 6.0.1 via an automatic push. Since then, ff hasnt been able to connect to the internet. Error message:
    Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.google.com.Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.google.com.
    IE has no trouble connecting to the internet.

    After upgrading, your firewall may not be recognizing the new Firefox version and is not allowing it access to the internet. On your firewall progam's allowed applications list, remove Firefox, then re-start Firefox, try going to a website, your firewall will detect the new version of Firefox, then give the permissions needed for Firefox to have internet access.

  • My macbook pro (lion 10.7.2) takes several minutes to connect to the internet after waking from sleep.  Is there any way to make this instant?

    Hi
    My Macbook Pro 15 inch takes several minutes to be able to connect to the internet after waking from sleep.  Does anyone else have this problem and is there a fix?

    The message that comes up when I click on "TomTom Home Install" is "You cannot open Home Install because Power PC applications are no longer supported." Does this mean that the TomTom, which is absolutely vital to my life - well, not literally but you know what I mean - can no longer be used with my MacBook Pro?
    What that means is that is can't be used with Lion 10.7.  PowerPC was the chip Apple used up until 2006 when they switched to Intel.  At that point, they created the Rosetta emulator to allow for PPC support for 5 years.  They finally dropped the support with the release of Lion.  It will only work with OS X 10.6 or earlier.  The other option is to purchase a new GPS, which can be had for $100 for a decent one.

  • Cant connect wirelessly to internet after installing iphoto 9.2.1

    I recently upgraede my system to 10.6.8. Today I downloaded and installed iPhoto 9.2.1 (going from 6.0.6). Now I cant connect to the internet wirelessly. Ethernet works. Could these actions have something to do with causing this problem?

    Probsbly good to post in the OS forum along with the error message when it failes to connect
    Is this failure only from iPhoto or from all software on teh Mac?

  • I cannot connect to the Internet after installation of Windows Vista Ultimate edition.

    I cannot connect to the Internet after installation of Windows Vista Ultimate edition. For some odd reason, it seems my ethernet has not yet been installed to my operating system and I do not know how to do that even with the internet, I have the LAN cable hooked up to my computer but I do not know exactly what to do about it. Is there some sort of driver I need to install, or what? How do I do that without the internet?
     This operating system is on a separate partition to my other operating system that is connected to internet already (Windows Vista Premium) that I do not wish to use anymore because of it's corruption. I tell you this because you may know a way of finding the driver files on my previous operating system that I may be able to transfer to the other.

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at
    http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.
    Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim

  • Cant connect to the internet using my wrt54g

    i bought the linksys wrt54g yesterday brought it home put in the setup disk and everythin was goin good until it came to step 10 and an error message came up saying: cant connect to the internet please shut off modem and turn it back on so tryed that still didnt work. so i found a thread when i searched this problem that said i had to bridge my westell 6100 modem to the router or somthin like that so i followed those steps and it still doesnt work can som1 help me please!?

    Did you try to change the routers Ip address to 192.168.2.1?
    I am not sure of that modem and not sure if it has a built in router ot not.  Call your ISP and see if that modem is also a router running DHCP and everything else.

  • Firefox cannot connect to the internet...i can get on with int. explorer

    I always use Firefox as my browser...may be 4.0...recently, I get a message that firefox cannot connect to the internet. I do have an internet connection, since I can connect with internet explorer...any suggestions?

    For possible causes see [[Firefox cannot load websites but other programs can]].

  • Firefox won't connect to the internet after trying all the troubleshooting, reinstalling, checking my firewall, etc. Help!

    OK, I've got Firefox re-installed but it still can't connect to the internet. The original issue disabled my Norton antivirus and I'm currently using Windows defender. I've removed Mozilla from the allow list as suggested in the troubleshooting and then re-added it, but that didn't help, Any suggestions? I'm running a full virus scan now, it's been 2.5 hours now and still running. I can't figure out what is stopping FF from accessing internet and so far none of the suggestions have worked. I'm running windows 8. I'm trying to install the troubleshooting info but it keeps asking me what to open the xpi file with and I have no idea. dammit this is so annoying. Ok, got the troubleshooting info added manually. Hope that helps someone help me.

    Thanks, that didn't work either. I finally got it figured out with some help from a co worker. My norton antivirus was blocking the upgrade,even though the upgrade had disabled it. Weird, but once we updated and downloaded the new norton things worked fine. Thanks everyone for the suggestions.

  • Solved: message "You are not connected to the Internet" after idle sleep

    Summary: What worked for me was to turn off IPv4 and IPv6 on my unused interface.
    The problem was that after my computer had been in sleep mode, Safari would say:
    "You are not connected to the Internet."
    or "softwareupdate -l" would say:
    "This computer’s Internet connection appears to be offline."
    Yet Firefox worked OK and traceroute also showed the connection was fine.
    Digging deeper (though only later, after I found the command), "scutil -r" indicated a problem with DNS lookup:
    $ scutil -r developer.apple.com
    Not Reachable
    $ scutil -r 17.254.2.129
    Reachable
    I'm using 10.6.6 on a Mini (model Macmini1,1), which has a wired ethernet connection on en0 and an AirPort on en1. I use the wired connection, but I also configured the AirPort just because, and then turned it off in the network preferences. I use a static (manually-configured) IPv4 address on en0 and DHCP on en1 (when it's up, which is only for experimenting). I don't use IPv6 as such, though I've left it enabled.
    I was initially confused, thinking the problem was intermittent, though it's not. I tended to assume that because the display had gone into standby the computer must be sleeping, without checking that the power light was dimming and brightening, indicating sleep mode. Later I found the "pmset -g" command to display the power management settings. Among the settings is:
    ttyskeepawake 1
    This means that if I had a shell session open in Terminal, which I did quite often when investigating the problem, the computer put itself into idle sleep later than if I didn't have the session open. The times in Energy Saver settings in System Preferences seem not to be very accurate anyway. For instance, with the default computer sleep and display sleep settings of 10 minutes and a shell session open, I've seen it take 17m25s for the display to blank and a further 14m16s for the computer to sleep, for a total of 31m41s.
    The problem only occurs after an idle wait. It doesn't occur after a software sleep (entered from the Sleep entry in the Apple menu or using the keyboard shortcut) or after pressing the power button momentarily.
    One way I found to fix the problem was to turn the AirPort on and then off again through Network Preferences (or the menu bar item). Later I found that disconnecting and reconnecting the ethernet cable also fixed the problem. I hoped to find a better way.
    What led me to this halfway house solution was noticing that if I turned the AirPort on and then off again, entries for en1 still remained in the routing table. These entries were for IPv6 link-local and multicast networks, as in this edited output from "netstat -nr":
    Internet6:
    Destination Gateway Flags Netif Expire
    ::1 ::1 UH lo0
    fe80::%lo0/64 fe80::1%lo0 Uc lo0
    fe80::1%lo0 link#1 UHL lo0
    fe80::%en0/64 link#4 UC en0
    fe80::216:cbff:fexx:xxxx%en0 0:16:cb:xx:xx:xx UHL lo0
    fe80::%en1/64 link#6 UC en1
    ff01::/32 ::1 Um lo0
    ff02::/32 ::1 UmC lo0
    ff02::/32 link#4 UmC en0
    ff02::/32 link#6 UmC en1
    Even with the AirPort switched off, ifconfig showed it as being up:
    en1: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,SMART,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
    ether 00:17:f2:xx:xx:xx
    media: autoselect (<unknown type>)
    status: inactive
    I don't know if these observations are relevant, but anyway they led me to the solution (well, workaround). The way I finally fixed the problem was as follows.
    1. Create a new location in Network Preferences. (This isn't strictly necessary, but it allowed me to keep the AirPort configuration (including my wireless password) intact in the default Automatic location.)
    * Click on the Location pull-down
    * Click Edit Locations...
    * Click +
    * Enter new location name (I called mine Wired-static)
    2. Configure the Ethernet interface with its static address. (If using DHCP, I'd have skipped this step as DHCP is the default.)
    3. Go to the AirPort configuration (even though it's shown as Off).
    * Click on Advanced
    * Click on TCP/IP
    * Select Off for both IPv4 and IPv6
    4. After clicking Apply in Network Preferences, a new "Location" item appears in the Apple menu between "Dock" and "Recent Items". Select the new location. This setting sticks across boots.
    I hope this helps anyone else in a similar situation. Maybe if you use wireless it would help to turn off IPv4 and IPv6 on the Ethernet interface?

    Try:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset Network Settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - DId the iPod ever successfully connect to the network?
    - Does the iPod successfully connect to other networks?
    - Do other devices successfully connect with your network?

  • Software Update can't connect to the internet after a new install of 10.6

    I had a clean install of 10.6 and after that the Software Update can't connect to the internet (the status bar hangs at the beginning and finally it prompts me the internet is not connected) while all my other applications can.
    Someone help me out?

    I am having exactly the same problem as well.. has anybody managed to solve this yet? I have uploaded Snow Leopard - try to connect to Software Update - the menu bar scans a little then stops and then an error saying 'Not connected to the internet'' but the connection is working fine!!
    Is this a SL issue? or just an overload with the Software Update programme? I cant do anything - no update for itunes/iphone software, etc.. most annoying.
    Look forward to seeing some good news and some answers to this one.
    Cheers
    Linda
