Firefox doesn't load a page or GIf unless I am moving the mouse

Firefox won't load any page or play a GIF unless I am moving the mouse or typing. I have the latest version of Firefox. It happens every couple of times I use the computer, and the problem keep occuring if I just restart Firefox. Any ideas?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions 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.

It is only happening since I upgraded to 4.01
It happens even on this page if I stop typing or moving the mouse.

Symantec have released an update for Norton 360 to make it compatible with Firefox 4, for details see http://us.norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20100720113635EN&ln=en_US

Firefox doesn't load any page after a while.

I'm having problem with firefox while surfing after a while. For example at first 15 minutes , there is no problem , after a while firefox doesnt load any page , i have to close it and reopen it again to make it work. While firefox is not loading , i can use other browsers as normal. It just doesn't load any page at all but the program itself responds so I can close it with X button.What could be the problem , I'm using latest firefox.

The default of the pref network.http.max-connections has been increased from 30 to 256 in Firefox 6+ versions.
Try to decrease the value of the pref network.http.max-connections from 256 to 30 as used in Firefox 3 versions.

Firefox doesn't load my pages from my last sesssion

on the last version of firefox, when i closed down a session it asked me if i wanted it saved, so that when i next turned on firefox all my tabs and pages loaded up automatically. can i get this feature back?

Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session. 
You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time. 
There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default about:home Home page. 
Another possibility is to use:
* [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Menu_differences Firefox (Tools) > Options] > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

My browser will not load a page or update unless I am actively moving my cursor or typing. If I select a page and don't do anything then it doesn't load at all. I have no idea how this happened or how to fix it. Thanks.

Firefox doesn't load/run/start at all.

Firefox doesn't load/run at all. Never had any problems with Firefox before until today.
My spyware warned me about a potential risk of a website asking for permission when browsing on Firefox...I clicked decline. Since then Firefox closed and won't start at all (a load icon begins to appear then nothing else happens. ''' Nothing'''). I don't know if it crashed or not as I didn't receive a crash report (not that I'd be able to access it anyhow I think). It just randomly shut down and since then won't start.
I have restarted my computer, scanned my computer, turned off the firewall, reinstalled Firefox, attempted to run in safemode - none of these options correct the problem. It literally just does not start! It's not running as a hidden process/application either as I've look through my control pannel. Any help would be most appreciated.

Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Accessibility settings.

Safari and Firefox both not loading any pages yet when i run diagnostics it says i am connected to the internet... any ideas???

I am having the same problem. My airport says i'm connected with full bars but when i click on safari it takes a few minutes then says i'm not connected to the server. Now the kicker is i have a magicjack and you need internet to run it and that works fine... also i can access my itunes store which also requires internet. I can only run safari with the ethernet cable connected. That is how i'm connected now.. any ideas what it might be.. i have reset safari, emptied the cache, renewed the DHCP lease.. and all of the obvious... Please anyone help..oh p.s. my iphone picks up the wireless so it is working.. HELP......

Firefox no longer loads home page or deletes cookies. I have repeatedly checked both settings and they are correct. It always goes to the last page I was on when I closed the browser ..

Go to '''TOOLS''' then''' OPTIONS''' then in '''GENERAL''' panel in '''STARTUP '''session choose '''Show my home page''', then click '''OK''' to save it, exit firefox and restart-it.

Google Toolbar Options, in the Search tab, make sure that '''Enable the Google new tab page''' is check-marked. If that doesn't fix it for you, see this for support information about the Google Toolbar.

As far as your UserAgent showing Firefox 3.0.11, see this:

You might want to consider getting rid of that '''desktopsmiley''' program that has messed up your UserAgent, it is known as Malware.

Anyone notice that Firefox downloads and load a page a lot slower then Dolphin HD?

Anyone notice that Firefox downloads and load a page a lot slower then Dolphin HD? That has been my experience all morning. I'm on Verizon Droid 2.
I been testing various web pages using Dolphin & Firefox Mobile, and I have noticed that in general, web pages takes longer to download and slower to render in Firefox Mobile then in Dolphin HD. It is not a cache issue as I clear my cache between tries.
Firefox Mobile 4 (downloaded 3/21/2011)?
Dolphin HD 4.5.0

I have the same problem on my website. It only happens in Firefox. IE, Chrome and Safari are working fine.
Very strange behaviour. Check this page: http://1stlook.nl/webdesign-eindhoven.html
You have to push the orange button twice. First time it only drops. Only if you click in the right corner it works???

Firefox crashes when loading certain pages. ID: d9839212-23dd-4214-94a1-8a7db2100704

Firefox crashes when loading certain pages. Often pages with video content
== Crash ID(s) ==
ID: d9839212-23dd-4214-94a1-8a7db2100704

The crash reports indicates the crashes may be caused by a file named mcbrwctl.dll, that file is part of McAfee Site Advisor. Try disabling the McAfee Site Advisor to see if that stops the crashes.
To do that, in the Tools menu select Add-ons to open the add-ons manager. Select the Extensions panel, then in the list of extensions select McAfee Site Advisor then click on the Disable button. Re-start Firefox to complete the process.
For info McAfee Site Advisor has caused various problems with Firefox for quite a few people.

How do I fix this error message, The address wasn't understood Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because one of the following protocols (connectag

We have a new computer and I cannot get my garmin running watch to sync with mozilla. The error message that I keep getting is"The address wasn't understood
Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because one of the following protocols (connectagent) isn't associated with any program or is not allowed in this context.
You might need to install other software to open this address."
Help please

This is for a special URL that starts with
connectagent://
instead of with
http://
is that right?
Two thoughts:
(1) Could you try changing a setting for your Garmin plugin. Here's what I mean:
Open the Add-ons page using either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Plugins.
Find your Garmin plugin change "Ask to Activate" to "Always Activate".
Your system information seems to list two different versions of a similarly named plugin. I'm not sure whether that is causing a problem.
(2) Does Garmin's documentation specify any extra steps to set up Firefox, other than installing its add-ons?
