Firefox is saying that the FIREFOX "get add ons page" is being listed as an UNTRUSTED WEBSITE!

your own add on page says its an untrusted connection....
that is just bad in so many ways.... Ok... I believe you...
your not to be trusted....
thanks

Can you tell me the website you are going to, and what exact message you are seeing? Have you checked that the time and date on your computer is correct? Try the following:
Update Firefox to 16.0.1. [[Update Firefox to the latest version]]
Read [["This Connection is Untrusted" error message appears - What to do]]

  • The firefox button with all the plugins and add ons and stuff doesnt appear... what do i do?

    I saw the tutoring video for firefox and it says that if I want add ons to appear I have to click the firefox button but I don't see it anywhere... how do I add it???

    The Firefox button is not available on the Mac, this is due to the way that the Mac handles menus.
    For the Mac, to access the add-ons manager, in the Tools menu select Add-ons.

  • Windows 7x64 FF 28 renders internal "Get Add-ons" page as text only

    Setting up five new Acer Veriton E430G Windows 7 x64 desktop machines for work, each has been Windows live updated to latest spec as of end of March '14. All were brand new factory pre-installed Windows 7 x64, all have had the same set of software individually installed, Adobe Flash player, Adobe Shockwave, Acrobat Reader, QuickTime, Oracle Java 8x32 and x64, Picasa, 7-Zip, LibreOffice, Skype and of course Firefox 28.0. All have the exact same behaviour in that when the "Welcome to Firefox" first run page displays, it displays in text only with a large grey box "No video with supported format and MIME type found. If you go to Tools\Add-Ons\Get Add-ons, the internal page displays in full text only as well - no graphics, same problem when you load "Plugins" page and click "Check to see if your plugins are up to date", the following page/tab loads as text only.
    After taking one of the machines brand new out of box and creating an Acronis snapshot of the entire drive [factory install before first run] using it as a test install, I played around with a number of software / driver / updates / Firefox add-ins scenarios trying to get to the bottom of this. I have come to a dead end in as much as all runs great within Firefox, web pages from all internal pages and many on-line websites render correctly when I load a previous version of Firefox [v26.0 or v25] rather than the latest v28.0 onto each of the machines, I tried v27.01 & v27.0, these gave the same text based pages. This has been replicated successfully on the other four machines with all of the above listed latest software versions installed [no AntiVirus software installed yet as not fully in use in Office yet], change nothing else other than load the latest version v28.0 Firefox and the problem reappears.
    I did for the sake of completeness test the brand new factory install just past 'first boot set-up' and first time desktop hello, let everything settle and installed Firefox v28.0, [tested with v27.01 & v27.0] this too exhibits the exact same text only page rendering on internal Firefox pages. Yet again, over install Firefox v26.0, clear history and the same pages start loading correctly.
    I am open to suggestions regards a fix for this as I really do not want to leave the machines with old version Firefox installed on each desktop. I would also prefer not to allow each member of staff to install Google Chrome. The on-line web pages that were found to be loading as text only within Firefox 28.0 were tested and rendered correctly within Chrome 33.0.1750.154 and IE 11, this would indicate something to be clashing with Firefox or Firefox not behaving with something else. I would like to get this resolved.

    Minor update and workaround but still no fix: installing and uninstalling testing versions of Firefox again - if I stick with the bare Windows 7 Acer factory install clean out of the box [temp turn off Microsoft auto update], attach an Ethernet cable to give me internet, install Firefox 28.0 I get text only [are these pages css base?] pages for internal "Get Add-ons" page / "Welcome to Firefox" 1st run page / Mozilla "Plugin Check & Updates" page.
    If I then flush all history and close - over install 27.0.1 and repeat all of the above I get then same results. Flush all history and close again, over install 27.0 and repeat all of the above - same text based results, flush all history and close again, over install 26.0 and repeat all of the above and we have a winner. Firefox 26.0 does not have a problem displaying any of the pages correctly.
    Working my way back up version numbers again, flush all history, close Firefox, over install 27.0 and repeat all of the above and we are back to text based pages.
    I have tried a forked version of Firefox - "Pale Moon - v24.4.2" on the same machine and this gives the exact same text based results. Would this then not indicate that it is something in the base coding or settings of Firefox that has been changed after Firefox v26.0?
    Chrome and IE are displaying these Add-ons and Plugin Checks pages with no fault, why not Firefox 27 /28 ?
    In the interests of curiosity I decided to try some of the beta builds, namely 28.b9 and 29.0b7 - unfortunately same text based results :-(
    If I cannot get this to work correctly with these machines I may have to concede and let the Office users select Chrome which I really do not want to do.
    Can I run any more logs files and upload them to assist in diagnoses of this problem for a hopeful fix?

  • "Get add-ons" page on "add-ons manager" in russian instead of english.What to do?

    "Get add-ons" page on "add-ons manager" in russian instead of english. How can i change that specific page back to English.

    In case it's a weird glitch with obsolete cached files or broken cookies, you could open the Add-ons site directly and do the usual:
    https://addons.mozilla.org/
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • 'Get Add-ons' page not loading at all..

    I'm tryign to get some add-ons for Firefox but when I got to Tools/Add-ons.. and then click the 'Get Add-Ons' tab I see the page 'Loading' banner and it get's stuck there for over half an hour now.
    I have completely reset Firefox and even installed a clean copy but still not working.
    Any help please?

    Here's the URL for the Add-ons website.
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/
    ''I just hide that incontent display for Get Add-ons, and use the URL fro bookmarks.''

  • When I try to open Firefox, it says that "the proxy server is refusing connections." What settings do I need to change? Even though the internet signal is strong, I can't open any webpages.

    It also says that Windows cannot connect to the Internet using HTTP, HTTPS or FTP. This is probably caused by Firewall settings on this computers. Check the firewall settings for HTTP port (80), HTPPS prot (443) & FTP port (21).
    This all started when I tried to tried to delete the Verizon Broadband toolbar and home page that always opened when I opened Firefox.

    In Firefox 3.6.4 and later the default connection settings have been changed to "Use the system proxy settings".
    See "Firefox connection settings" in [[Server not found]]
    You can find the connection settings in "Tools > Options > Advanced : Network : Connection"<br />
    If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then select No Proxy

  • I can't download firefox. When I click on run, I get a window saying that the author is unknown. When I click on run in the new window, another window says the file is corrupt. What can I do about this?

    I want to have firefox as my default browser. As this is a new laptop, I hasve to download firefox. As per the instructions, I click on "run" to complete the download, but instead of completing the download, a window appears which says that the author is unknown. If I ignore the window and click on run, I get another window which says the file is corrupt and I can't finish the download and have firefox as my browser.
    I have windows 7 and explorer is the default browser and I want to change to firefox, but so far am being prevented from doing so. How can I successfully download firefox?

    It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.
    Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.

  • When I try to open firefox it says that it is not responding, after I disabled the adobe flash plug-in it worked, how do I get it to work with flash

    Since I updated my adobe flash player firefox keeps saying that it is not responding after I open it and it loads my home page, I disabled add-ons and went throught the process of figuring out which one it was and it was adobe flash, but without flash I cant access a lot of different sites, how can I fix this. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling both firefox and adobe flash, but neither works!

  • Firefox will not install on my laptop using windows 7. I keep getting a message saying that the installation was interrupted

  • Why does it say in the Firefox Safe Mode article that all of the changes are temporary while in Safe Mode, then later it says "Note: The following changes cannot be undone."?

    Why does it say in the Firefox Safe Mode article that all of the changes are temporary while in Safe Mode, then later it says "Note: The following changes cannot be undone."?

    When you open Firefox in Safe Mode, it automatically disables your custom settings, themes, and add-ons. THOSE changes are temporary.
    However, if you click any of the boxes underneath the line, "You can make some or all of these changes permanent", and then choose "Make Changes and Restart", everything you checked will be forever changed, even when you start Firefox again in 'normal' mode. [See attached image for a preview of the Safe Mode options].
    To be clear:
    1. If you check any of the boxes but do NOT select "Make changes and restart", those things will not be changed at all in safe mode.
    2. If you select any of the boxes and you DO select "Make changes and restart", you will permanently lose any of the items you checked (bookmarks (except for backups), user preferences, etc.).
    If you performed the action in step 2 above, you will only be able to restore those things if you have a previously created back-up of your Mozilla Profiles folder (not the same as the Firefox program folder).
    Hope this helps.

  • After working correctly before Firefox now says that I don't have the propper permission to have the automatic upgrade process. New iMac and MacBook Pro both afected. Using Snow Leopard

    After working correctly since I started using the iMac Firefox now say that I do not have the privileges to have it auto update the Firefox. I don't think I changed anything.
    == This happened ==
    A few times a week
    == Since last update

    Well, running on a 2006 model.  I did not have a startup disc.  Initially, it booted up on original software in 2006.  Since then, I've upgraded to 10.6 via a box set.  And, since then I think I popped it up to lion. 
    All I have on a disc is snow leopard.  And, I can't get farther than the setup screen due to hard drive.  I'm taking to a apple authorized repair store right now.  We'll see what they tell me .  I'm just going to weigh the cost of repair vs. buying new.
    Another bad, stupid thing is I had no means of backing up my stuff.  So, I might have lost things like music, vids, etc.  we'll see if they can recover.  If the cost is too much for repair I might just forget it and start over with a new system.  Just not sure at this point.

  • Firefox opens with a window that says "Checking for compatibility for Add-ons" then it always opens 2 tabs... one with my home page and one that says Congratulations, Firefox is up to date. How can I stop it from starting that way?

    Firefox opens with a window that says "Checking for compatibility for Add-ons" then it always opens 2 tabs... one with my home page and one that says Congratulations, Firefox is up

    Hi konee,
    You should look at [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox+has+just+updated+tab+shows+each+time+you+start+Firefox this article about that specific issue] and the article [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved Preferences not saved]. These should give you all the information you need!
    If that doesn't work:
    # Type about:config in the address bar
    # Click ''I'll be careful, I promise'' if prompted
    # In the Filter input field type ''startup''
    # Double click on startup.homepage_override_url
    # Delete the text string and click ''OK''
    # Close Firefox and reopen the window to verify that it has worked.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • I can't access Facebook. I keep getting the "Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete". I have cleared cache, cookies, history, offline storage. Nothing has worked.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
