Firefox loads but does not display
1. When I double click the Firefox icon on my desktop the firefox.exe application loads (per the Task Manager) but it does not display. I have to use Task Manager to end the process. FF will usually display on the second try, but I often get a "this is embarrassing" message. This has been going on fore several months.
2. I don't know if this is related to the loading problem, but I frequently have to shut down & restart FF because some Bookmarks don't work when I click on them. Usually my Home Page icon at the top will work, but those in the Bookmark sidebar don't.
I am surprised that 17 other people have this problem and no one has any ideas.
Basically, I have had to abandon the use of Firefox and use IE ... is this a Microsoft conspiracy? I really like Firefox ... I am devastated.

Since the upgrade to FF3.6, I've had several annoying glitches.
1 Dclick desktop icon, FF loads into memory, but does not display. End task. Then Dclick the icon again. This time FF loads and displays normally.
2. After closing FF with Save & Quit, next time I open FF, error message : "Well this is embarrassing, can't recover tabs". Start new session. FF opens with last tab instead of default site.
3. On some sites I click icons and nothing happens. Sometimes other icons on same page will open, but most won't. Internet Explorer will open the same icons, so the Problem seems to be in FF.
Am I the only one with these nuisances? Any help will be appreciated.

You may be 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 coming from 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] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. 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 theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author. -
Outlook 2010 loads but does not display on monitor
Very strange problem. When I click on Outlook 2010, the splash screen appears and it seems to load, but does not appear on my monitor. Task Managerr shows the application is running, so I guess it is there somewhere. All the other Office 2010 programs work
fine.
I am running Win 7 Professional 32bit, dual core 2.7 cpu, 4 gb ram. Everything else works fine. I was having a problem with Outlook 2003 crashing and had not tried Outlook 2010.
Have the same problem in Safe mode.
I did run scanpst.exe and it only found (and repaired) a few files that it felt were not important. I transferred my .pst file to my wife's computer and her copy of Outlook 2010 opened it fine. I used her computer to delete all items in the
"deleted" file. My total pst file is about 142mb. I have defragmented this hard disk. I don't have a Win7 installation disk because I downloaded the Office 2010 file and used a legitimate key to activate it
I think there is a simple answer. Appreciate your help in finding it.I found my problem.
“Add-ons” were the source of the problem.
I believe there was a conflict between two programs:
Norton’s Security Suite and AnVir Security Suite.
Both were trying to scan my incoming e-mail.
I uninstalled AnVir, reset Outlook back to its original configuration (i.e. reversed all the changes I described above), and my problem is gone.
Not sure why this problem took so long to appear as both programs had been install for at least a month without issues.
I used AnVir and ZoneAlarm for over a year together without issues.
However, about one month ago, I uninstalled ZoneAlarm and installed Norton’s Security Suite.
In any event, uninstalling AnVir solved the problem.
Uninstalling Norton’s and keeping AnVir would probably work as well. -
Windows Media plugin for firefox loads but does not play
Hi,
I am facing problems using windows media plugin on firefox as well as other browsers as well. I guess the problems would lie on the windows media plugin.
Few weeks back, I do not have any problems running windows media player on firefox, however I am unable to do so now. I am able to load the plugin but I cannot play it. I tried testing the plugin on the site below. Thank you for your help.
Windows Media plugin for firefox :
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/play-windows-media-files-in-firefox?s=windows+media+&r=0&e=es&as=sHi,
You can try to fully trust Firefox + its sub processes/files in the security software (antivirus and firewall). You can also try to '''Disable''' other possibly conflicting '''Plugins''' in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons'''. You could also uninstall it from the Windows Control Panel > Programs and Features and [www.interoperabilitybridges.com/windows-media-player-firefox-plugin-download reinstall it].

Page loads but will not display
I have an IP address that allows me to view my cctv cameras.It works fine with Internet Explorer,but when i enter the same address in to my safari browser the page seems to load but will not display anything.
I assume its some thing do with my internet security settings but do not now where to find them to allow this site. Can any one help please.
ThanksTry temporarily turning off your firewall via SystemPreferences>Security>Firewall. If the site then works you can turn the firewall back on and specifically allow Safari.

A problem has just started with my IPAD Air after 3 months of use.
If I try to open Safari by tapping on the icon the screen briefly flashes white but does not display the page.
Similarly if I try to open Settings page, Mail page, Calendar or Clock the screen just briefly flashes but the Apps do not run.
Some of the Apps do work on tapping the icon e.g. Maps, iBooks, Appstore, iTunes, Newstand etc.
I do have some website links which display when the icon is tapped e.g. John Lewis but some links do not work.
I have ensured that the ipad is fully charged, powered it off an on again, and cleaned the screen with a lint free cloth but the
same problem keeps occurring.I saume you used a second display at one time, otherwise the Display settings wouldn't be treating your primary display as a secondary.
IF you open your System Preferences>Displays (-System Preferences) and click "Gather Windows" it should pull everything to the display on which you clicked it. -

When I click the Editor, it loads but does not open the Editor page. Options?
When I click the Editor, it loads but does not open the Editor page. Options?
Try making separate desktop icons for the Editor and Organizer. You can then launch directly. The standard desktop icon is for the welcome screen which often runs in the background or doesn’t shut down properly.
Start by right-clicking on the desktop and select:
New >> Shortcut
Then browse to:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 13
Inside the Photoshop Elements 13 folder make sure you select the application (not a shortcut) by scrolling down to the files beginning with the letter P and highlighting ‘PhotoshopElementsEditor’
Then click next followed by finish.
You can repeat for the Organizer using the different file path.
New >> Shortcut
Then browse to:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Elements 13 Organizer
Highlight ‘PhotoshopElementsOrganizer’
Then click next, followed by finish.
Now that you have your separate desktop icons you can delete the one for the welcome screen, if preferred. On Mac try launching directly from Applications. [if not using PSE13 substitute your own version and go to Program Files (x86)] -

Apple TV powers up but does not display all of a sudden. Tried all of the advice on this page to no avail. Any ideas?
Try resetting the SMC and PRAM
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
About NVRAM and PRAM
However, I suspect you zapped the Mini, maybe the lower voltage part since you siad the fan works.
The power surge could have went into HDMI and damaged the TV.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Siebel Charts gets generated but does not display in the Web client
Siebel Chart is getting generated in NetChart4.6\Server\root\projects\Siebel.chart folder. However does not display on the Web client
There is either no error displayed on the front end...
Also note that Charts is installed on Windows environment and Siebel Server is installed on Linux ServerDear User,
Thanks for using Oracle communities.
Does this happens in dedicated client as well?
We would need to have traffic captured when you are actually executing actions. The tools like fiddler etc will help here to track the traffic.
I would suggest you open SR with MOS since it will need some analysis on network trace like fiddler. You can refer this thread in SR as well, so that once issue gets resolved thread will get updated with solution which will benefit others.

Movieclips loader loads png but does not display image in ie
hello, i have created a static class to deal with the loading
of images, it works great. yesterday, i found an issue: i try to
load png files (those pngs are generated with quasimondo's bitmap
exporter), they do load, but they are not displayed in ie.
it worked until recently. is there some specification about
the png that i have to make sure that the png has? or is there an
issue using the movieclip loader with ie?
i included the actionscript class (save the code in an .as
file), so if you want to test, write only this in the first frame
of your code:
import com.iCongo.utils.MovieClips;
this.createEmptyMovieClip ("placeholder",
this.getNextHighestDepth ());
MovieClips.loadIMG (this.placeholder, "
http://somedomain.com/somepng.png");
that image will load, but in the context of my flash file
where many many files are loaded at the same time, only the block
generated by the bitmap exporter will not show.OOPS
cancel that question. i ftp'd the file to the server again, this time setting the transfer type to binary and the png image comes up
just like it should.

When I load Firefox, I get a blank page. There is a single tab with "Untitled," and an indication "Done" at the bottom. The program does not respond to any of my bookmarks--it works but the end result is the blank page described above.
A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.<br />
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox.<br />
See [[Server not found]] and [[Firewalls]] and http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firewalls<br />
See also http://kb.mozillazine.org/Error_loading_websites
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).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Firefox 3.6 does not display pages correctly
I recently upgraded to 3.5 beta 4 and it worked ok. 2 weeks ago it stopped displaying pages correctly. Uninsalling and reinstalling did not cure problem. I unistalled and installed v3.6. Same problem.
I could provide a screenshot of Mozilla home page. Backgrounds, table borders and some inages to not display. I have disabled all plugins and "load images automatically" is checked.
The images and background of this page do not display. I checked with K-meleon and IE.If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" as a (too) high value can cause issues.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
Make sure that you allow websites to choose their fonts.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Changing+fonts+and+colors
It is better not to increase the minimum font size, but use an extension to set the default page zoom to prevent issues with overlapping text.
*Default FullZoom Level: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/
On other platforms instead of Tools > Options use:
*Mac: Firefox > Preferences
*Linux: Edit > Preferences
*Windows: Firefox > Options
<i>Press F10 if the menu bar is hidden on Windows and Linux or use "Firefox > Options/Preferences"</i>
