Firefox does not redirect anywhere and I tried but still fails

when I open my firefox on W8 the thing is that any url I wrote and I write on the search bar and when I hit enter , nothing happens, stays there‼‼‼ like refreshing the site, I know this same problem is happening to others I tried the same procedures and I'm still in the same page. my dear firefox.. it is time to say good bye? I'm here becouse I like firefox. so please can you give me the real solution to this or I have to migrate and still loving firefox?

yes guys, thank you all very much, I did all you say but nothing by the way in running the last version of firefox. But I really want to share with you guys that I found the reason of the problem. It was IDM. Internet Downloader Manager , I'd desinstall that program and it works fine just like before and redirect everything‼.I Noticed the problem when I uninstall that program (the other browsers wasn't able to redirect anywhere) I'm sorry for doubt about firefox‼‼ My mistake... but there you have it, for all of you having the same problem, that was the real solution.beware if you do not clean the registry you do not be able to run any browser because of IDM.

    You can try a direct connection and select No Proxy in the connection settings.
    You can find the connection settings in "Tools > Options > Advanced : Network : Connection"
    Also do a malware check with a few malware scan programs.<br />
    You need to use all programs because each detects different malware.<br />
    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.

  • Firefox does not open proprely on the page but forms only 1/3 of page

    When i open any site Firefox does not form properly on the page but takes up only 1/3 of the page (to the right).

    Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.
    There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
    * Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
    * Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

  • Firefox does not redirect users to web auth page

    I have a client that uses web auth for the guest wireless.  When a users opens up FF, it does not automatically redirect them to the web auth page.  However, IE and Chrome work fine.  If you copy and paste the redirection page into FF, it will go to the page then.  The only two possible solutions I have found are to either enable web auth proxy or regenerate the WLC self-signed cert. 
    Anyone have any other ideas? 
    TIA,
    Dan

    I've been trying to figure out a very similar issue where Firefox wouldn't open the guest webpage (the connection was interrupted) and finally found it was caused by opening Yahoo as my startup page. I change it to Google, for example, and it comes up everytime now. When set to Yahoo I could clear my cache and it would work once but then wouldn't work again. If I load Yahoo as the startup page in IE it works everytime. Very strange.
    Here's what the debug looks like:
    *webauthRedirect: Jul 23 20:59:33.793: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx- received connection
    *webauthRedirect: Jul 23 20:59:33.794: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx- received connection

  • When atemping to use wifi hotspots FireFox does not redirect to login page.

    when trying to use a hot spot like in a hotel or airport (tmoble for one) will not redirect to login page. Nor can it find the page when I enter the DNS name. If I enter the IP address of the long in page then it can find it but not the subsequent pages that it calls by DNS.

    I am a Hotspot ISP and I am having this issue with Firefox on Linux devices. We use Colubris MSC-3300 as access controllers tied to a RADIUS server. Have tested all other browsers on Windows and Linux and they seem to work correctly, problem seems to be tied to Firefox on Linux (testing with Ubuntu 11.04). When I open Firefox the redirect to captive portal page works correcty. I enter my username and password and when it tries to send this information back to the controller I get a "connection was interrupted" error. I have gone into Preferences and turned everything off and/or on and still can't get this device to log in.

  • THe sync key supplied to me by firefox does not match account when I tried to reload firefox.

    I needed to reload my firefox browser. I was using sync before and I wanted to use it to reload my bookmarks ...etc... I loaded the add-on, ran setup, entered my account name and password, set up then requested sync key. I saved the html when i recieved origional key. sync setup tells me it is wrong key... i can change sync key but I lose all info in my account.. what to do?

    When you cleared your history, did you select Cookies and/or Active Logins and clear those? That could explain why you are not automatically logged in.
    I have not used the Zimbra mail server. However, generally speaking, when you are using webmail, you usually do not need to enter a mail server name. Usually you just have to login.
    Where does the site stop working for you. Can you log in and get to the next page, or does it require you to keep trying to log in? Can you view the Inbox? Can you open individual messages? Et cetera.

  • Firefox does not save history and bookmarks and I can't even clear history.

    Hi, I would like to ask some help regarding my firefox.
    At first, I have this Mozilla Firefox 3.6.8 where it all started.
    I can't remember really when, but I just noticed that I can't clear my history even though I checked all and selected "Everything". Already tried re-installing FF, still none.
    Then another one is that, it does not save history. All the history it saved were from the past. No new history can be added.
    Please help me..

  • When a html coded page requires the Windows Symbol font, Firefox does not call it, and the English alphabet characters display instead. How can I get the Symbol font to work when the page is loaded in Firefox??

    ''duplicate of https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/902677''
    This site shows Greek letters and Greek words by calling for the Windows Symbol font. The page(s) involved display correctly in Internet Explorer, but not in Firefox 3.6.1 or 8.1. In Firefox, the Greek letter does not appear, it is just replaced with the English letter for the equivalent keystroke. Here is a html line that ought to cause Symbol's Greek letter lowercase alpha to be displayed, but all you get is an "a" :
    (td width="60")(p align="center")(big)(strong)(font face="Symbol")(span style="font-family: , Symbol")a(/span)(/font)(/strong)(/big)(/td)
    **I have had to replace the left and right carets with left and right parentheses. Otherwise, the line actually executes, disappears, and just leaves a bolded "a" on the next line.***

    Reemphasizing, the page code works on Internet Explorer. It does _not_ work with Firefox ver 3.6.1 nor ver 8.0.1 (which I upgraded to, to see if that would solve the problem). The MDC FAQ solution is not a solution, because it forces the html coder to change his language just to accommodate Firefox. Firefox needs to change to conform to standards.
    What did work was that I followed the solution offered on:
    http://hutchinson.belmont.ma.us/tth/firefox3.html
    "How to reenable symbol font in Firefox 3 on Windows"
    <b>**********Solution*********</b>
    Download the file:
    http://hutchinson.belmont.ma.us/tth/symbol8859.otf
    Go to Control Panel/Fonts/Install New Font
    Install the font that was downloaded.
    <b>************Problem Solved*********</b>
    I think Firefox wants you to use _its_ font faces, not the standard Windows fonts. They do not have a Symbol font to replace the Windows TTF, I guess.

  • Firefox does not display button and table in High Contrast Theme

Please suggest whether it is possible to get the layouts in High contrast theme, if Yes, kindly tell the detailed steps to do that!

  • Hotmail, only in Firefox, does not function, chrome, yes, IE, yes, but not firefox--WHY?

    I have uninstalled all versions of Firefox, no matter-Hotmail loads, but when trying to open any email or part of hotmail, does not function. I have now added Chrome and IE and they have no probs with Hotmail!
    So, WTF?????

    It has been suggested that the Foxit Reader plug-in can cause problems with Hotmail. Try disabling it, reloading the page and see if it helps.

  • Firefox does not see my updated web page, but can see it using IE. Why?

    My web site is designed on Frontpage. I updated information of several pages. One page in particular does not show the updated information. http://www.dianedrain.com/RealProperty/TrusteeSalesForeclosures/TRUSTEEpendingTrusteeSales.htm
    Yet, IE does show the page with the updates. Why?

    Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache.
    *Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
    *Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    *Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)

  • Firefox does not close/exit and must be shut down using task manager

    When I "x" out of Firefox, or File menu "exit" or right click to "close," the Firefox window closes but whenever I attempt to restart Firefox, it says that it is already running (hence was never shut down) and I have to use Task Manager to "end process" before re-starting Firefox again. This dilemma only started after upgrading about 6 months ago (can't remember the version). I recently upgraded again but the problem still exists.

    Did not address my issue. Firefox isn't freezing while it's up and running, it just doesn't completely shut down... therefore it's always running behind the scenes.

  • Why doesent Firefox does not remember Emails and passwords? Seems this issue started when 4.0 came out.....

    Well ever since FF 4.0 came out it doesn't seem to want to remember all my emails and passwords, once in a great while it will scroll down and show my email but once i click it it doesn't even place my password in, Such as accessing my email or logging into an account on the web such as Facebook, MySpace or anything like that, and i have to re-log in every single time when i used to do click, click Done, Id like to continue doing that...

    To ensure that no malicious software has been installed, try running several malware scanners. It is best to run several as each will pick up things that the others miss. Some scanners you can try are:
    * Malwarebytes - http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php
    * SuperAntiSpyware - http://www.superantispyware.com
    * Ad-Aware - http://www.lavasoft.com/products/ad_aware_free.php
    * Windows Defender - http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/defender/default.mspx
    * Spybot S&D - http://www.safer-networking.org/en/home/index.html
