Firefox keeps loading an outdated webpage.

I am trying to visit the website www.theage.com.au whenever I go this URL, it loads the page from 27/01/2015. I think that is the last successfully load of the page I had. To fix, I have tried:
- uninstalling and re-installing Firefox.
- doing CTRL-F5 to re-load the page.
- clearing cache, cookies and history.
In the status bar down the bottom it cycles between "transferring data from the www.theage.com.au" and "Waiting for..." some ad stuff. The little green wheel just keeps spinning but the page never changes. I think eventually it just times out.
It is trying me mental.

You can remove all data stored in Firefox from a specific domain via "Forget About This Site" in the right-click context menu of an history entry ("History > Show All History" or "View > Sidebar > History") or via the about:permissions page.
Using "Forget About This Site" will remove all data stored in Firefox from that domain like bookmarks, cookies, passwords, cache, history, and exceptions, so be cautious and if you have a password or other data from that domain that you do not want to lose then make sure to backup this data or make a note.
You can't recover from this 'forget' unless you have a backup of the involved files.
It doesn't have any lasting effect, so if you revisit such a 'forgotten' website then data from that website will be saved once again.

Firefox keeps loading cached site

Firefox keeps loading a cached version of a website, specifically businessinsider.com. I have tried deleting my cache via tools>clear recent history>everything. And of course i did make sure all of the boxes were checked.
I also have deleted the cache at
C:\Users\Syntax Attack\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\go9ce91m.default
both the offline cache and the regular, and yet it is still loading a page from much earlier. This is an intermittent issue and does not always happen, it is pretty much just this site it happens with anymore but has happened to a few others in the past, this has persisted even after upgrades.
Windows 7 64bit
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.21) Gecko/20110830 Firefox/3.6.21

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 keeps loading multiple tabs of: Index of file:///c:program files/mozilla then eventually crashes

Firefox keeps loading multiple tabs of: Index of file:///c:program files/mozilla
Here are the details:
I start Firefox (6.0.2.4262) (I'm running version 6 due to compatibility issues with my online college having problems uploading files with FF version 7 or 8)
I enter a web address (i.e. www.yahoo.com) and as soon as the page begins to load I have multiple tabs and windows opening.
When I attempt to close one of the windows it gives the warning I am try to close "22 tabs" - yep... 22 tabs.
If I allow FF to keep loading all the tabs, etc., about a minute later it will crash. The submit a crash window appears.
I have all extensions and add-ons disabled.
I even uninstalled Java, Flash, and several other programs in hopes that the problem would stop.
In addition, I ran a malwarebytes scan and an Avira virus scan which both came up clean. I also used CCleaner to wipe out history and clean the registry. I even made hidden files visible and deleted the Mozilla install folders under my user name.
So, then in hopes of searching for some answers on the Mozilla forums I started up the horrible Internet Explorer and also get a million different pages loading of the preset homepage of "msn.com", which also crashes
(I apologize for starting and using IE, but I was limited on resources to check the internet for info)
If anyone can offer some assistance, or advice on this issue I would greatly appreciate it.
I am also using:
Windows 7 Ultimate
SP1
Thank you,
Biff

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.

Firefox keeps loading old tabs when restarting

Firefox keeps loading old tab when closed and a new Firefox was started. (My Startup home page is set to "restore to default". I even set sessionstore to 0 in about;config) Still same issue

Deleting sessionstore files did not help. But resetting firefox helped. Thanks everyone.

Firefox keeps telling me that I have an outdated Firefox, I keep downloading Firefox 4, but Firefox keeps repeating the outdated message. How do I activate Firefox 4?

I do not understand what more information you require. I have downloaded Firefox 4 four times, but Firefox keeps telling me that I am using an outdated Firefox!

Please do the following. 
#Go to [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/?ref=logo Download Firefox 4.0.1] and download the installation file to your desktop. 
#Then go to Add/Remove Programs, scroll down to "Mozilla Firefox" and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (''don't checkmark the box''). 
#Then reboot and delete the folder called "Mozilla Firefox" at this location: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox 
#Finally run the installation file you downloaded to the desktop earlier. 
Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation. 
After you complete the installation, please go to the [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ Plugins Check] page and update where necessary.

Firefox is loading but the webpage (eg google or whatever) is not centred

This means that the search box (for example google search) is positioned right (right aligned). this means that i cannot read the webpage when it loads or get to my bookmarks drop down list. Also, there is not a scrollbar on the right hand side either. I have a screenshot of the problem but cant upload it here!
Cheers.

There are several possible causes for that error, uninstalling and re-installing Firefox is very unlikely to fix it. For details on things to check see [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]]

Hello,
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!
Thank you.

Do you see a Mozilla Crash Reporter dialog when you crash?
For us to see your crash report that you have submitted:
#Go to '''about:crashes''' in the Location Bar.
#Copy the blue links (beginning with bp-) and paste them here.
Do you have this problem when running in Firefox Safe Mode?
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode
''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in Safe Mode."''
If it does not occur in Safe Mode, an extension is at fault. To find out which one, see [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]].

Firefox won't load any website/webpage at all, why is this?

The internet connection works fine. There's no error message either(like 404 error), Firefox just keep loading the page. Other browsers can still go to the internet without problem. If I close and restart Firefox, the "Firefox is already running, but is not responding" window pops up. This happened often, but not every time Firefox opened. It doesn't occur when I go to a certain website, I'm sure of that.

Check your firewall/antivirus/security suite for settings that may be causing this. If that's not it, it's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
If the problem does not disappear when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there. Please have no fear of following my instructions to the line, as all can be easily undone.

One firefox can load webpage, the other cannot

I have two Firefox running concurrently, one on laptop and one on desktop, both through the same router and ISP.
Last night the desktop would not load a particular webpage, a forum, but was fine with everything else. I assumed the problem was at the other end, it has happened before, and they would fix it.
I happened to try it on the laptop and it loaded OK, but I then found that the desktop version would still not load. Repeated tries confirmed this. The desktop has version 29.01 and declared up to date.
Wierd

On the Firefox that won't load the page, do you get an error that the page was not found, or it loads blank, or what happens exactly?
If the site is loading incompletely/incorrectly, did you try the usual?
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(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:
"3-bar" menu 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?
To see whether it's likely to be a settings issue, could you do a two-minute experiment?
'''Create a new Firefox profile'''
A new profile will have your system-installed plugins (e.g., Flash) and extensions (e.g., security suite toolbars), but no themes, other extensions, or other customizations. It also should have completely fresh settings databases and a fresh cache folder.
Exit Firefox and start up in the Profile Manager using Start > search box (or Run):
firefox.exe -P
Any time you want to switch profiles, exit Firefox and return to this dialog.
Click the Create Profile button and skip the option to choose a nonstandard folder location. Then start Firefox in the new profile you created.
Can you get into the forum in the new profile? If so, that implies there is an issue with a setting or extension in your regular profile.
When returning to the Profile Manager, you might be tempted to use the Delete Profile button. But... it's a bit too easy to accidentally delete your "real" profile, so I recommend resisting the temptation. If you do want to clean up later, I suggest making a backup of all your profiles first in case something were to go wrong.

The following keeps popping up before firefox will load, Exc in ev handl: TypeError: this.oRoot.enable is not a function

There is a pop up box, it says,"Exc in ev handl: TypeError: this.oRoot.enable is not a function" It pops up before Firefox will load, what is it?

Disable "McAfee Site Advisor" extension which was just updated to 3.4.0, which probably took it out of the addons block list.
* "Ctrl+Shift+A" > find McAfee Site Advisor and use "Disable", and then restart Firefox.
* Do a Google Search no problem
* It seems that if you re-enable Site Advisor again, and restart Firefox you are okay. At least you know where to look if you get the error again or Google searches slow down.
