Firefox will not load any webpage, but Chrome works just fine. What is wrong?

Whenever I open Firefox I get the message 'Problem loading page' on every website I try. This just started today. I am having the same issue with IE, but Chrome is working fine. It is not a problem with my internet, as Chrome and my PS3 have no problem connecting to the internet.

Thanks, turns out I got a virus somehow. BWContextHandler32.exe is reporting itself to my firewall as the game BulletStorm, which I do not have, and somehow attached itself to Firefox and probably IE as well. I figured it was bogus so I blocked it. Still not sure why it just started blocking Firefox. I was denying access to it for a couple days, darn procrastination, and Firefox was working fine. Now I just have to get rid of it...I really hate windows sometimes...

  • Firefox will not open any webpages, but other browsers work. How can I fix it?

    Firefox will not load any web pages. I recently ran a registry cleaner/virus scan on my computer and now Firefox 5 will not load ''any''webpages. It displays a "Problems Loading Page" error message. Other browsers still work. I tried uninstalling and re-installing firefox, even restoring to a previous restore point, but nothing seems to work. How can I fix this?

  • Safari will not load any pages but chrome does on my ipad3

    When I click on a link in safari, it takes forever to load and often says server not found. Yet, if I use chrome, no problems. Unfortunately safari is the default. Any solutions possible for safari? Thanks

    This is strange.  Our two iPads and work laptops (Windows) have no problem accessing the web so I know the Comcast cable internet connection and Motorola wireless router are working just fine.  I did hook up a new wireless Brother printer and have the two affected Mac's set up to print to them. I am starting to think that maybe the issue causing my problems and the software update was just coincidental.  Any recommendations are appreciated.  Thanks for reading my discussion.

  • 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 will not load any webpages, on the tab at the top it says untitled. I've tried updating Firefox, but it still doesn't work.

    When I open my Firefox application, no webpage appears, the tab at the top simply says untitled. When I try to change the webpage, nothing still happens, there is still a white, blank page.

    Try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if it then works.

  • Mac Mail will not load any emails, but Airmail works fine. What to do?

    Hello,
    I recently purchased a MBP and did used Migration Assistant from my old MBP. Everything has worked fine except for Mail. Mail will launch and ask me to add accounts. I add an iCloud account and nothing happens, Mail does nothing and when I go to quit it won't, preferences is greyed out, and I have to force quit Mail. Internet accounts are in order. I even went so far as deleting them all and adding them all back in. Launch Mail and nothing is there.
    I then did an internet recovery and installed 10.9. Same issue persists.
    I took a chance and bought Airmail from the AppStore and it works perfectly. I know I can just use that but its bothering me that Mail does not work on my brand new MBP.
    OSX wont let me delete Mail to try and reinstall.
    Thoughts? I really dont want to wipe the disk and start from scratch.

  • Firefox will not load any web page, other programs will. Continuously "connecting"

    Firefox will not load any pages, but Google Chrome will. Firefox will 'load' the home page, but with any other site, the tab will continuously circle and say "connecting". I have tried clearing my cache, starting in safe mode, and restarting my computer. So far, nothing is working.

    Update..when I open firefox from scratch, the main firefox pages on the home page seem to work. But as soon as I try to go anywhere else, IE going to a website in the address bar or even trying to access the defauly bookmark links, it just sits there loading but never brings anything up.

    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.

  • Firefox will not load any web pages

    Firefox will not load any web pages. I have tried every suggestion on the support page, deleted the program and reinstalled it 4 times, and ran a malware scan. None of these have solved the problem.

    Hi JessN37,
    We've got a whole [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/web-pages-dont-load troubleshooting section on failure to load pages]. Have you looked through any of that information? There is a ton of useful stuff there.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • Firefox will not open ANY site. Wont work AT ALL. Nothing seems to be working.

    Firefox will not open ANY site. It worked last night, but not today. I uninstalled it many times, didn't worked. It displays the screen that says "unable to connect" yet chrome and explorer both work. I have disconnected and reconnected a few times, restarted my laptop, neither of those worked either. I have also tried turning "safe mode" off after re installing firefox, but again, that did not work. I need help :(.
    Although, before this, firefox was not letting me use voice recording sites or any site that let me watch television online. It would load the commercials, but not play the episode. It wouldn't even let me upload pictures to photobucket. However, it worked using chrome or explorer.

    Looks like a bunch of people have this problem. Anyone got any ideas to fix this???

    Firefox or googlechrome will not load any sort of videos playing sites. This is a recent issue. I've watched videos on hulu for the past couple months with no problem.

  • Safari will not load any webpage. Have reinstalled several times.

    I have not been able to use Safari on my PC for some time. I have reinstalled several times, and completely removed safari and installed new several times. It will not load any page.

    Many thanks.
    Even though it's about a different application, I'd try the following document with that:
    iTunes 10.5 for Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
    (Safari uses the same webkit engine to render web pages as iTunes uses to render the Store pages. So an issue that can cause the iTunes Store to blank can also cause a Safari for Windows application on the same PC to produce blank pages.)

  • Can't load any webpages but internet works

    I ran into an odd issue on a work computer running OS X Mavericks 10.9.2.
    Every morning when I come in, the computer is unable to load any webpages using Chrome or Safari. Other things that rely on an internet connection (but are not accessed through the browser) still work (i.e. LogMeIn Hamachi, Accessing a remote file server, etc).
    I don't think it's a DNS issue. I am able to successfully ping any website. AFP requests that rely on DNS lookup also go through. But I am unable to access any website, located on the internal network or the internet even if I know the IP address.
    I tried manually setting the DHCP settings and rotating the DNS servers. Still can't load webpages.
    I also tried restarting mDNSresponder and it still didn't work. The only thing that works is restarting the computer.
    This happens every once in a while on other computers in the office, too.
    I'm stumped. Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance.

    Log out under the Apple in the Menu bar.
    Log into Guest
    Open Safari and see if you see the same behavior
    If no, it's an issue in your User's folder.
    If yes, it's an base issue.
    Even though you are fully updated, running the combo updater can help.
    MORE INFO ON WHY RUNNING COMBO FIXES ISSUES
    Apple updates available from the Software Update application are incremental updates. Delta updates are also incremental updates and are available from Apple Downloads (software updates are generally smaller than delta updates). The Combo updates contain all incremental updates and will update files that could have become corrupted.
    Combo updaters will install on the same version as they're applying--no need to roll back or do a clean install.
    "Delta" updaters can only take you from one version to the next. For example: 10.9.3 to 10.9.4. If somehow the 10.9.3 is missing something it should have, and that something isn't changed between 10.9.3 and 10.9.4 it will still be stale after the delta update.
