Firefox starts, but fails to display websites with no error message.

Firefox starts, but when it tries to connect to a real website, i.e. google.com, mozilla.com, etc. it just... doesn't. There is no error message. There is no progress bar. No "Loading...". Nothing. It just continues to say "Untitled" in the tab name.
I tried updating to the latest firefox version. I tried reinstalling firefox. I tried creating a new profile. I tried clearing cache/cookies/etc. Nothing I did caused any change.
I have noticed that if I attempt to type in a random string of characters (clearly not a real website) or a made-up ip address, then it displays the proper error message... intermittently. I just tested it again, and apparently it doesn't always work.
*sigh* What now?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I went back to firefox after using Chrome.

I have mac. And I have the same problem.
First page loads - and I can click on any link from that to continue opening it in tabs. But when I open new tab cmd+t and enter a website address to location bar, nothing happens.
I don't have a firewall.
I already deleted Firefox from applications and reinstalled.

  • Firefox "loads" but fails to display.

    After updating Firefox, the browser loads (it shows up as running in Task Manager) but fails to display on screen. In other words, it is completely unusable. I've uninstalled & reinstalled the program, without favorable results.

    It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • ISync fails - what to do with this error message?

    I set my iMac to autosync everyday at a certain time. I realized that the last sync was 7/27/06, and when I go to Sync tab in the .Mac system preferences, I get the following ".Mac Sync Error" message exactly as follows:
    "* -[NSKeyedUnarchiver initForReadingWithData:]: incomprehensible archive (0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0)"
    Any idea of what sync fails? and what I need to do ?
    Thanks!

    With the release of Mac OS X 10.4 more than a year ago, iSync no longer has anything to do with the synchronization of contacts, calendars and tasks with .Mac - that is the responsibility of .Mac Sync. You should probably post you query in the .Mac Sync forum, here:
    http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=957
    You may be able to deal with the error message by resetting the Sync Services framework—its truth database, actually—by launching iSync, opening the Preferences… dialog, and pressing the Reset Sync History button. That will leave your data intact and your sync clients registered, but reset the truth database and framework to behave in such a way that your next synchronization event will appear to be the first event you have ever performed.
    The 'incomprehensible archive' the error message refers to is likely on your Macintosh.
    Before proceeding further, back up your contact and calendar files using the built in provision to do so in both the Address Book and iCal. If resetting the database does not correct your issue, you can launch System Preferences, open the .Mac pane and press the Advanced tab. In the lower left corner is a Reset Sync History button. Press that, and in the dialog which appears, configure .Mac to overwrite the data files for one OS X application on your machine at a time, starting with contacts. Make sure that you overwrite your computer data [which you have just backed up, and can therefore restore if that is necessary] with the data from .Mac.

  • I had set up my device to sync but now it comes up with an error message.

    I was using Firefox OS for some time but now I guess the standard is Mercury. I successfully synched my desktop and iPhone. But I wanted to update and clicked sync, but it didn't work and I was asked to input the 12-character code. I did so and it wouldn't sync.
    In Preferences, I have "Clear history when Firefox closes" checked and in Settings I have "Saved Passwords" unchecked.
    Deciding to reset everything, I deleted my paired device and started from scratch, but when I entered my Account, Password and Sync Key it came up with an error message for the "Secret word(?)". I double checked to ensure I was entering the information correctly.
    Now I'm stuck.

  • App runs in Eclipse environment but not from jar file with no error message

    When I upgraded my jre to 5.0 my app does not run. After fixing the properties problem I had a few days ago it is now at least compiling and running within Eclpse
    However, when I export to a jar file it runs to a certain point and then just goes away with no error message!!! I've narrowed it down to the exact point where it dies but don't understand why it dies and especially gives me no errors whatsoever. It just goes away.
    It is creating an instance of a new class when it dies.
    Can someone please help me?

    Ok, well it doesn't. Anyway, I'm still having the same problems. I can run my jar file to a certain point and then the application just stops. I know this because I've put come message boxes in the application to let me know where in the app the system is.
    It always dies when it is instantiating the new class called HeidiFrame; done by:
    HeidiFrame heidiFrame = null;
    if I put code in between the above line and before the below line, this code will work fine
    heidiFrame = new HeidiFrame();
    but if I put code after the above line, nothing happens
    As I said this all worked fine until I upgraded to Java 1.5
    If you look at http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/compatibility.jsp there are 23 compatibility issues with the new release. We're using xml stuff so that was my first problem and the code wouldn't even compiile. Once I added in libraries, the code compiled and ran beautifully.
    However, when creating my jar file so I can deploy this application , I've discovered that the jar file will only run to a certain point, as I've stated previously. So, that's my problem. Not that I can't run it from the command prompt, which I can't, but it's a gui application. I've tried changing things in the classpath file and the manifest to no avail. Nothing changes. The application starts but when it goes to instantiate the HeidiFrame class, which is the class that actually builds the gui it dies and goes bye bye.

  • HT4623 I'm trying to update my iPad but it keeps coming up with an error message but no explanation what the error is

    Trying to update to iOS 7.0.2 but not having any success,message keeps appearing telling me there's an error but doesn't tell me what the error is,any information on how to sort this problem would be appreciated

    Can you check that your Wi-Fi connection is working correctly?
    Do you get that error right away at the beginning of the download or much later?
    Have a look whether there is plenty of free space (several gigabytes) on your iPad to receive the new iOS 7 upgrade. Remember that the upgrade is downloaded in a compressed form.
    It's difficult for me to give precise advice without knowing what caused the error.
    If all fails, try to do the upgrade via iTunes with your iPad connected to your computer.

  • [WL10.0 on Solaris 5.3.10 and jdk150_06] JSP page fails to display sometimes with NSAPI Plugin message - Need Help pls

    Hello,
    Could someone HELP me with the following issue pls?
    regards
    Rakesh
    ------------------------------------------------------------- PROBLEM DESCRIPTION --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    1. Whenever I launch a JSP page, it takes significant time and fails to render with "No back end server available for connection. Timed out after 300 seconds or idempotent set to OFF" message.
    2. These JSP pages are not doing any I/O intensive activities (NO long DB read...) as well (reads a 10-15 KB file from local disk and display some simple UI)
    3. WL Console shows all the THREADS as HOGGING and eventually, the log file shows them as STUCK !!
    4. After some random period of time (1 hr, 2 hr or 5 hr), IF I try to launch the same JSP page, it might succeed.
    5. Re-deploying the .war file/Restarting the weblogic instance, SOMETIME helps !!!
    Based Google search, I have done following changes with NO LUCK.
        1.  Changed JVM parameters (--Xms1024m --Xmx024m, MazPermSize=512m ) with NO LUCK
        2. Changed the Java Muxer from native I/O to Java based – NO LUCK
        3.  Changed Deployment Plan to increase  #BackLog request  - NO LUCK
         4. Changed "Resource Reload Check" in deployment plan to -1 - NO LUCK

  • Safari 4.0.3 Starts but won't display any windows properly

    Since accepting the update to Safari 4.0.3 this morning, Safari starts but will not display any windows, just the main application menu bar.
    Trying new window has no effect and launching a history item either has no effect or safari crashes complaining that the crash could have had something to do with
    libcooliris.dylib
    I therefore removed /Library/InputManagers/Cooliris but this made no difference.
    History flow displays but won't launch any windows and strangely Menu>History>Home opens a window but there are no tabs nor URL nor search bar, but there is only the history bar. The window is all grey including where the page should be.
    Trying to open other history items in this window changes the title, but no page contents are displayed.
    I also tried reinstalling 4.0.3. from the Apple website, but this made no difference.
    Have you any idea what I could try next?
    Thanks

    Deleted all from /Library/InputManagers and problem solved.

  • Firefox application quits unexpectedly on various websites with no pattern: firefox-bin [770]

    Firefox application quits unexpectedly on various websites with no pattern. Part of the error message details reads "firefox-bin [770]"
    It started happening this AM after I visited facebook and got an invite from someone I don't know. I didn't reply. Ever since, I can only browse Safari but for a few pages until it quits.
    Please help.
    Thank you.

    Run /Utilities/Console and click 'All Messages' top left - look for the entries around the quit times and see if they give any pointers why the apps are quitting ? If you're not sure what the lines mean copy and post (just those not the whole log) here.

  • Are there other internet browsers that work well displaying websites with a lot of Flash content?

    Other than the browser that came on the Samsung Droid Charge....
    Are there other internet browsers that work well displaying websites with a lot of Flash content? 
    Thanks in advance!

    I use Dolphin Browser 6.0. Its faster than 5.0 and has no issues with Flash.  I have used flash and used the Beta 6.0 and now the actual released version. Its the best so far. It has tabs like a normal computer browser and even has a gesture feature to do scrolling. 
    Others are Firefox which has NO flash. Then there is SkyFire which is ok, uses its servers to compress data and show it on your phone, its quick but I found the quality of images not as good as stock. 
    Opera Mobile and Mini do the same as skyfire.
    I personally just didnt care for Xscope of Miren browsers.  Didnt care for the feel of Xscope and Miren was developed in China and is modeled after Iphone Browser. 
    Try em all if you want, biggest benefit of the aftermarket browser is you can sync certain accounts (dolphin with google, firefox with firefox) and instead of storing the Cache info using phone memory you can now save the data and the web browser on the SD card.

    Just got off the phone with apple support.  If the photo book completes the assembly process but fails during the upload process the problem is in their overloaded servers.They just started a free shipping promotion for the holidays which has increased the traffic dramatically.

  • DISPLAY/PRINT MY EXPENSE REPORTS UNDER TERA FAILS WITH THE ERROR MESSAGE

    Hi Techies,
    When i click on "Display/print" button under my expense report ( Employee --> Travel & expenses --> Manage Expenses (TERA) --> My trip reports), it opens up a new window with the error message "SOAP Framework error: SOAP Runtime Exception: CSoapExceptionTransport : HTTP send failed with exception communication_failure(100,101)."
    This behaviour is noticed in the new upgraded system NW 701 SP7 (portal) and backend ECC 6.0 EHP4; However it works perfectly fine with our non-upgraded system NW 70 SP10 (portal) and backend ECC 6.0.
    When i ran the trace on this functionality, i could notice that in the non-upgraded system, after pulling all the values, it calls the RFC function module "PTRM_WEB_FORM_HTML_GET"; however the upgraded system calls "PTRM_WEB_FORM_PDF_GET".
    For the "PTRM_WEB_FORM_PDF_GET", I believe we need to configure the "ADS" rfc pointing to the ADS service on a j2ee server which am not planning for.
    MY QUESTION IS:-
    IS THERE ANY OPTION TO CHANGE THE FORM BEING CALLED FROM "PTRM_WEB_FORM_PDF_GET" TO "PTRM_WEB_FORM_HTML_GET" WHICH I BELIEVE WILL RESOLVE THE PROBLEM AM FACING?
    Kindly assist with your thoughts!1
    -GK

    Read the steps on note 1032311 on how to achieve it,
    In Web Dynpro, the Parameter for Formula is Defaulted to PDF file. If
    you don't want to use the ADOBE Form in ESS, you have to follow 2 steps:
    Solution
        o  Check the Homepage framework configuration.
      In IMG (transaction SIMGH) go in Travel Management->Employee Self
    Service->Homepages Framework->Ressources
    Delete the URL parameter "sap.xss.tra.UsePdf=true" of the ressource
    "EMPLOYEE_TRAVEL_TRIPFORM_SRV05".
      Check that the field URL for PCD file is filled with
    ROLES://portal_content/com.sap.pct/every_user/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.bp_fol
    der/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.roles/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.employee_self_service/
    com.sap.pct.erp.ess.employee_self_service/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.area_trave
    l_expenses/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.tripform
      Normally if it is not filled in your client, the system should use the
    one from client 000, that is the SAP delivered customizing.
        o  Check the Portal PCD configuration
      Logon on to your SAP portal as Administrator.
      In the Content Administration - Portal content, select Content
    provided by SAP->end User Content->Employee Self Service->iViews->Travel
    and Expenses->Display Trip Form
      Right Click on Display Trip Form and Select Object->Open
      In the field Application Parameters, you will find a parameter
                                                                     Page 2
    sap.xss.tra.UsePdf=true . Delete this line completely.
    When this configuration is done, the PDF form is desactivated and the
    HTML form is used.
    This is the issue with ADOBE set up
    Firstly, I would ask you to check the customizing steps from 944221
    to ensure no issue with the ADS configuration for the pdf form.
    to review OSS note 925741 as there can be a issue with the
    platform validity and version.
