Firefox is preventing automatic reloading of pages even though I tell it to allow

I have clicked on "allow" at least 15 times but Firefox "prevented this page from automatically reloading." I need some help to resolve this. It is happening on several sites after i completely cleared history.

See:
* Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"
The setting in "Tools > Options > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.

  • When I download files in Firefox they only get about 99% complete even though it tells me they downloaded successfully.

    9 out of 10 times my download gets truncated in Firefox. For example, let's say I was downloading a 42.2 mB file, it would get to about 42.18 and then complete. I would then try to open the file to find it was corrupt. I would then open up IE9 and download the exact same file, and I would get the full 42.2 mB and the file would open flawlessly. I have tried disabling all extensions/addons, nothing. I have reinstalled Firefox cleanly a few times, no dice. I have tried disabling any file system protections I have, nada. I'm at a loss right now as to what else I can try. I love Firefox, I've been using it since it's original release, but I need to be able to download. Every other browser I've tried works great in that department, except for Firefox all of a sudden. Anyone have an idea?

    Just tried that, but the issue persists. Any other ideas?

  • When I try to open a new tab, it automatically goes to a babylon seaqrch page, even though I have un-installed the toolbar

    Someone installed babylon toolbar on top of Firefox - since then when I try to open a new tab, it automatically goes to a babylon search page, even though I have un-installed the toolbar.

  • My opening page won't load the home page even though I set it to home page in preferences.  Instead it always opens to the last page I had when I last closed.  I'd like it to open to my home page.  I've tried dumping and reloading Safari, I have 5.1.2.

    My Safari 5.1.2 Just won't open to my home page even though I have it set in preferences.  It continues to open on the last page I was on when I last closed Safari.  What overrides my settings in preferences?

    I just purchased my first MAC after working on PC for the past 25 years and would like to know how to keep my safari program to be the full screen everytime I get into the app. I always have to click the two arrows to the top right of the safari program but on a PC it is always opened in full screen mode ??? and while I have you plugged in how do you make it so that the manu bar does not go away (hyernate??)

  • When trying to log into my bank account, I always get a Challenge Page even though I check the box to register my computer as a private computer.

    When trying to log into my bank accounts (2), I always get a security Challenge Page even though I have repeatedly checked the box to register my computer as a private computer. When I attempt to get into these same two accounts using Internet Explorer, I skip the Challenge Page and go directly to the Log In page. What settings do I need to change in Firefox so that I don't get the Challenge Page every time?

    I have had exactly this problem - Firefox - version 11, but when I updated all my plug-ins (go to Customize Firefox - about halfway down - '''''Check your plugins''''') and restarted Firefox the problem vanished. Hope this helps as this seems to be a fairly large issue.

  • When I clear my history, Firefox clears my browsing and download history even though this checkbox is not checked. It didn't use to do this. What can I do to fix this?

    When I clear my history, Firefox clears my browsing and download history even though this checkbox is not checked. It didn't use to do this. What can I do to fix this? I believe the problem started with the last Firefox update.

    Do you mean the "Form autocomplete" feature?

  • Firefox keeps asking to authenticate to kerebos even though it is no longer

    firefox keeps asking to authenticate to kerebos even though it is no longer using the xserve as a proxy, do i have to reset something in firefox or delete something so it works with a new windows proxy? can't seem to get past this as i can't authenticate as it is no longer using that proxy, so just keeps popping up all the time with cannot contact any kdc for requested realm . There must be a way to reset firefox to not look for kerebos? any ideas would be greatly appreciated?

    Hi
    When the Kerberos login window appears just click cancel. Firefox should then use the next authentication mechanism it can or it won't bother if that's all there was. You can 'reset' Firefox by removing the Firefox folder from /Users/home/Library/Application Support. Relaunch the application afterwards.
    Don't trash the moved folder as you may want to reinstate the Bookmarks.html? If you do it should be fairly obvious to you as to what you need to do. If you don't want the bookmarks trash the folder.

  • Why can't I open some of my documents on Pages even though I created them all on the same IPad with the same Pages ap?

    Why can't I open some of my documents on Pages even though I created them all on the same IPad with the same Pages ap?

    I think I know the problem because I've had it myself. I didn't upgrade iWorks on my iPad, but after Apple made changes to iCloud (concurrent with Mavericks) any docs passing through it were modified and made unreadable. Even though, as you say, they were created on my iPad using the previous version of iOS Pages, which I didn't upgrade.
    iCloud is the culprit, if your iPad settings had iCloud>Documents & Data enabled, the docs were modified and disabled in the cloud.
    I made a further mistake. After I saw this happening, I didn't think to turn off auto updates, and Apple pushed the new version of iOS Pages onto my iPad. The result was that ALL my docs disappeared from the iPad, and from iCloud.com also. I have not been able to recover them.
    I've been talking to the Pages engineering team about it. If they come up with an answer, I'll post it here. Meanwhile, get those older files backed up somewhere safe if you can.

  • I have just updated my iphone 3gs to the latest operating system but cannot now update my emails even though it tells me I have new emails in my btinternet account. I have tried re-installing the email account onto my iphone but to no avail.

    I am having a problem with my email account not updating on my iphone even though it tell me I have email in my btinternet account. Has anybody experienced this and have any possible solutions?

    After some troubleshooting, I decided to order a new battery.  I replaced the battery and was then able to get it to restore, however--after I restore it and it comes time to restart the phone, it gets stuck and doesn't turn on.
    Sorry, your repair ruined the iPhone.
    She does not have apple care and even though she loved this device, she isn't going to buy another iPhone because of all the problems shes had with this one (it's just over a year old).
    After you ruined the iPhone with DIY, Apple won't touch it anymore. You should have asked before all these had happened.
    I'm an android user myself and I love rooting/flashing new ROMS, so if jailbreaking her phone or doing some kind of super-restore with 3rd party programs might help, I'm all for it-
    Yeah, all Android user can think of is Jailbreaking, read this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3743

  • Firefox blocks the automatic reloading of my company email site and "allow" won't work

    When I open my company webmail site, I immediately see a message that reads: "firefox prevented the automatic reloading of this website". I clicked "allow" and the message just pops up again.

    The problem with this fix is that when you disable the block as instructed above, you are also turning off the warning of a page redirecting you to a different site. This is risky as some sites redirect you to malicious sites and you can't stop it as you are not warned. I don't know why Mozilla linked these two item in the options, but I wish I could get rid of the block on reloads and keep the redirect warning. Anybody know how to fix this?

  • When I open Firefox it does not go to my home page even though my setting are set to go to home page when Firefox is opened

    I have repeatedly checked my settings for Firefox to go to my home page when opened. Instead it opens my last pages opened. I have the most current version of Firefox. This has been going on for about a week.

    This problem started about 4-5 days ago.
    After i scroll down a bit on a longer page, the scroll bar is still near (not at) the top. The page is scrolling at that point based only on me continuing to move the cursor in the scroll bar vertical column - even though not in line with the actual scroll bar itself. Then when I put the cursor on the actual scroll bar the page jumps back up to near the top of the page.
