Firefox not loading up webpage

Hey guys,
I've been experiencing this problem with Firefox where most pages would not load after i clicked on it. This happens 100% of the time when i first open up the program, it would let me browse a few web pages before it stops loading everything else. It would try to load a webpage indifinitely. I can only remedy this by restarting the program, but then it only works for a few more webpage browsing before it stops working again.
Do you guys think it could be an extension issue? If so which one?

If this is one Mac on a Network with your own Router, reconfigure the Router to have your ISP's DNS "magic numbers", then disconnect and reconnect your Mac. Your Mac should pick up the numbers from your Router.
If this is one Mac without a Router, use:
System Preferences > Network > (Internet interface) > Advanced ...
to enter your ISP's "magic numbers" for DNS.
If you prefer, you can use OpenDNS servers instead:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
Make certain you do not have any bogus, old, dead numbers ahead of the ones you want to be using -- they will be used first in the order they appear.

  • Firefox not loading any pages.

    Firefox not loading any pages either when typing a url, dragging a .webloc into it or searching anything in its google field.  It just stays at the Also, when I try to open a .webloc file "open with", Firefox is not one of the options.  Furthermore, when I go to the "open with">"other..." route, Firefox is not selectable.  I've repaired permissions in Disk Utility, updated Flash and reinstalled the latest Firefox and restarted the computer with no success.  Also, another odd thing is when I double-click a .weblock file, it opens up in Fireox to a blank white page, even though its set to open in Safari as the "open with" default.  This is clearly an issue related to the computer, not Firefox.  Your help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

  • Firefox not loading/running/opening

    In my laptop firefox is not working. It was working initially one day it stopped opening so i uninstalled it and could not delete scriptff.dll file which I deleted along with the technical support of Mcafee. But still it is not working. after installing I check the box to launch the firefox but it does not launch instead in task mangae its running.
    please suggest some what to do now. I am very prone to use firefox please help me out as soon as possible.

    Hi,
    If the history or download folder has grown causing the slowdown, then clear the history by going to ‘Tools > Downloads’ and opt to ‘Clean Up’.
    If this does not solve the problem, delete the downloads.rdf file completely.
    If Firefox is attempting to save downloads to non existing folder, then reset the location by navigating to “about.config” from Firefox address bar and reset “browser.download.lastDir”. Or create a new download folder in the settings.
    Sometime Firefox may be stuck in an infinite loop due to badly written codes in sites with Java or Flash.
    To confirm this, open the same site with explorer or other browsers.

  • My computer says it is connected to internet but it does not load the webpage

    my computer says it is connected to the internet, full bars but it does not load the webpage when i click on safari

    If you are connected wirelessly it is possible to have full bars, but your wireless router connection to the Internet could be the problem.  Try restart your router. 

  • Firefox 3.6.15 will not load any webpages--BLANK PAGE only!

    I just upgraded my Firefox to 3.6.15 yesterday, and upon restarting the browser, it does not load the homepage...or any other page for that matter. It loads a blank white screen even though the address bar has the proper web address. It will do this no matter what webpage you load.
    I have updated my Java applet and Flash to the most current versions and this did not seem to help either.

    I had already tried a reinstall before, but thanks for the suggestion. Starting FF in Safe mode did not help either.
    XULRunner is specific to FF. Mostly found discussion about using the code in web pages when I used Google before posting.
    When FF went from version 3.6.14 to version 3.6.15 this issue started. Please note the Error message and the version info I just mentioned.
    '''"Platform version '1.9.2.15' is not compatible with minVersion > =1.9.2.14 maxVersion < = 1.9.2.14"'''
    '''The Platform was revved up from 1.9.2.14 to1.9.2.15'''
    I could not find information on: minVersion or maxVersion much less how to change them in XULRunner.
    '''''It is definitely a Mozilla FF issue'''''.
    Avast sandbox is up to date and works just fine with everything else. More importantly it worked just before the update was installed.
    The only reason I bothered with the update is because Mozilla touted it as a security issue and there was NO mention of any known issues with sandbox software.

  • Firefox does not load any webpages. Only shows "done" in corner. IE (64bit) works fine

    The firefox program loads fine. However it only shows "untitled" in the tab and "done" in the bottom corner. It does not show any error notifications. When I click a bookmark, or enter a URL into the location bar it makes not attempt to contact the server. In fact it appears to do nothing at all.
    I appreciate any help you can provide.

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting&#58; Make a new profile]]
    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins"
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

  • Since July 24, 2010, firefox will not load any webpage. I uninstalled 3.6.8 and want to re-install 3.6.2. How can I do this?

    My updated firefox version will not work at all. I uninstalled it, and want to go back to my previous version which was always working. I have Microsoft Vista. Please help as soon as possible.

    This can be caused by a firewall blocking internet access to Firefox. See [[Firewalls]]. That link has a list of popular firewalls and how to configure them to work with Firefox.

  • Firefox not loading webpages from yesterday. I am getting a string of error and warning messages. I tried reloading but getting same messages. Like Parsing Value, Unknown property zoom. Lots of different errors. Cannot re-load pluggins. Help!

    Used Firefox for some time no problem until yesterday. Now it wont load web pages. Getting a string of warnings and errors. Tried reloading but getting same errors. Can't download pluggins. Error in Parsing, Unknown Property, Unknown Zoom, loads of messages like this for no apparent reason. Help please!
    == 10 July 2010

    Same thing started after updating to 3.6.6 on Window XP. Some pages load after doing "shift - Reload page", but not always. Error Console is showing a lot of "Errors" and lots of "Warnings" from pages that do not load. But before 3.6.6 update the pages loaded OK.

  • Safari and Firefox not loading pages

    Safari and Firefox are now selectively not loading certain pages. Sites like penny-arcade.com and staffingnow.com give me a ...
    Safari can’t connect to the server.
    Safari can’t open the page “http://www.staffingnow.com/” because it could not connect to the server “www.staffingnow.com”.
    message. Now I have tried to empty my cookies, my cache, I have cleared all data that can be cleared. I've renewed my DHCP lease, reset my router, restarted my computer, etc and none of it seems to help.
    I've tried loading them on my girlfriend's pc and they load up fine.
    Any ideas?

    Having the same problem here, only I dont have firefox. Safari refuses to load my webpage www.epicvideo.com.au yet any other computer can access it. I have another site, with the same server, on a similar but cheaper plan, that loads every time.
    I have no problems with download speeds, but from reading discussions, some individual sites, hand-picked by Safari, refuse to load. My business website is the only site Safari wont load - I get the error "Bad Request (Invalid Hostname)" - frustrating when running a business!!!!
    Ive done it all to, emptied the cache, reset safari, deleted all my book marks (yay), turned off my modem, restarted my server, spoken to tech staff at my STMP and website server... even Mac Heads at Telstra... no answers.
    Lastly, im finding discussions not helping too much either, cause im just deleting files and changing settings etc - something that will surely cause me more grief!!

  • Firefox not loading some pages properly?

    So I have recently bought a new laptop with Windows 8, and I installed Firefox. For the most part it works fine but I have noticed, for some reason, some webpages do not load properly. It looks as if only the HTML of the site has loaded.
    Now I can easily fix this by clearing the cache, but only for the same problem to occur a few hours later and this is really annoying me. The problem still happens in safe mode, and other browsers seem to work fine. I have also tried reinstalling but not a full reset.
    Here is a link to what Facebook looks like when this happens: http://oi40.tinypic.com/2gwcbxk.jpg
    Please could you help me solve this?

    This just started happening to me, on my desktop (Samsung software is not an issue), on '''most''' pages. Only a few, incl. Gmail and Mozilla Start page, load as normal pages, with graphics. One site I visited, from a link in an email, loaded All pages normally, but it's the only one so far.

  • Firefox not loading SSL secured websites (Paypal, Firefox Addons, eBay, etc.) Why?

    After updating to FireFox 5 beta 3 no version of firefox will correctly load any webpage that is secured by a SSL certificate. When viewing sites such as PayPal, eBay, even the addons page for firefox I get a warning saying the page can not be verified and that the certificate is not trusted.

    I've got Firefox 5 running on Vista Home and while trying to connect to a SSL secured website running on a network device it won't let me. I type in the username and password, and press 'login' but rather than presenting me with a 'incorrect login' screen, it just refreshes and brings me back to the login screen as though I never even tried to login in the first place.

  • Why does firefox not load my yahoo toolbar that I have personalized with my apps. I am so try of this crap! What is the problem?????

    When I load Firefox my Yahoo toolbar with all my links that I use does not load! I've been dealing with this for a long time! And as much as I hate Internet Explorer, you are forcing me to go back to it after 3 years with Firefox! Why dose your program have to be so uncooperative. If I can't access my program with ease, what good are you? I don't have this problem with IE. I have been using Firefox because it's so much faster than IE. But If I have to waste all this time trying to re-install Yahoo toolbar or type in Internet addresses, You really are no better, even worse!

    '''Ya I also have the same problem. its working on I Explorer but I don't want to be so slow. '''
    plzz suggest me a solution.
    thanks.

  • Safari not loading any webpages after 10.7.3 update.

    I did the update through software update, and I saw a lot of people having errors with that, but i did not get the cui error, my only issue is safari stopped loading any webpages.
    If I try to enter an address in the bar and hit enter, it just beachballs, and than nothing happens, before it used to just keep trying to load it.
    I than downloaded the combo updater, opened the dmg, and installed over it, restarted and same issue
    Prior to the combo update I repaired any file permissions as well.
    How do I get safari to work properly again?
    I even uninstalled the clicktoflash extension.
    TIA.

    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
    If that doesn't help, back to the menu bar click Safari > Reset Safari. Select the top 5 boxes click Reset.
    If that didn't help, go to ~/Library/Preferences. Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file form the Preferences folder to the Desktop. Quit then relaunch Safari to test. If pages load, move that .plist file to the Trash. Otherwise, just move it back to the Preferences folder.
    See if that helps. If not, go to Safari > Preferences then select the Security tab. Deslect:  Enable plug ins
    Quit then relaunch Safari to test. If Safari loads pages, then you need to troublleshoot Safari add ons >  Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues'
    If you have anti virus software installed, disable that. And turn off the Firewall in System Preferences > Security & Privacy. See if that helps.

  • Safari and Firefox not loading images

    Recently I worked on somebody's MacBook Pro computer (a few months old but software is kept up to date) but I couldn't figure out why Safari and Firefox often would not show images. This person also has a desktop PC computer with the same problem in Internet Explorer. The mac laptop is connected to the internet via wireless and the desktop is wired to a Netgear router. The router is connected to a Motorolla Surfboard 5100 cable modem. The problem started about on the 16th of March. When I tried to open a page in Safari often half of the pictures did not show. In Firefox when I clicked the broken picture icon and selected 'show picture' then it will load. Also, in both browers, clicking refresh will usually, but not always, reload everything correctly. Clicking refresh does the same on the PC in Internet Explorer.
    Safari showed on the status bar there were errors on the page so I opened the Activity window. It said 'failed to connect' or something like that (I don't have the computer in front of me) for the images that did not load. Oddly, not all the images from the same site fail to load. Some will load but others won't. This happened with most sites and it appears to be random.
    I opened a terminal window and typed netstat. With no browser running there were still several connections. I'm not sure if that matters on a Mac in OS X. On a windows computer if there are several connections and no programs are open then there may be a problem with malware.
    It is possible the problem with images not loading has nothing to do with the Mac or Safari since we are having the same problem with the PC. The view images option in all 3 browsers is checked. I tried taking the router out and connecting only the PC to the cable modem. I tried unplugging and replugging all the ethernet cables. The owner of the computers spent a few hours on the phone with her internet provider. In the end they couldn't find what was causing the problem and tech support told her the internet was slow sometimes. We have the same internet provider and I'm having no problems with images on the same sites I viewed on her computer.
    Any ideas?

    Before somebody asks- yes, I tried clearing the cache
