Frequently, Firefox comes up with a blank screen - not Google!

Sometimes Firefox comes up normally. More often, I get a blank screen without my home page which is Google. I *think* this happens if I already have an internet site open, but it was never a problem before version 5.
When it happens, I have to close Thunderbird, the program I have open, and THEN I can open firefox. Not good.

Opening in the Sidebar is the default action for bookmarks that are created via a "Bookmark this Page" link or button on a website. Make sure you use the many "Bookmark this Page" methods that are in Firefox instead.
Right-click that bookmark and select '''Properties''', then un-check the preference for '''Load this bookmark in the sidebar''', and then click Save.

Firefox comes up with a split screen, left and right. Is this normal? (I don't like it, and would prefer to have only one pane open upon logging in.)

Firefox comes up with a split screen, the right side of which is the one I want to retain as the only opening window (blank), and the left side of which (a sign-on page for a favourite site) I would like not to have sitting there. Is this normal? Or did I somehow (erroneously) make it happen? How can I get rid of the left pane so that only one pane (the right, 'blank') appears when I log on to Firefox?

I cannot access itunes store- it comes up with a blank screen that merely has itunes store on the page

i cannot access itunes store- it comes up with a blank screen that merely says itunes store

With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:
Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
(If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

Firefox suddenly sits with a blank screen for one specific website.

A website I've used for years I suddenly can't get to using Firefox, but I can using Internet Explorer. When I try to go to it in Firefox I get a blank white screen in the browser. I tried all the usual troubleshooting techniques (disabling add-ons, resetting Firefox, deleting cookies and temp files) and nothing helps.
I have Webroot anti-virus and it hasn't detected anything; scans run automatically every day.

Are there any special icons on the location bar that Firefox is blocking content?
You can get a possibly colored Lego icon on the left end of the location bar that indicates that Firefox is blocking a plugin.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/why-do-i-have-click-activate-plugins
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Issues_related_to_plugins#Click_to_Play
You can check if there is a shield icon to the left of the "Site Identity Button" (globe/padlock) on the location bar that mixed active content is blocked.

*https://developer.mozilla.org/Security/MixedContent
You can use these steps in case of issues with web pages:
Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
*Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
Clear the cache and cookies only from websites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

I can't download apps! Every time I try, it asks me to chose a security question and I try, but I just comes up with a blank screen and I can't choose a question. If I click no, I don't want to put security questions, it doesn't install the app. HELP!

I can't do it! I am willing to add questions but I can't because it just shows me a blank screen. I even tried rebooting my entire iPad2 and that didn't work. I know it is not a certain app because I tried multiple ones.... HELP!

Some of my hot links in Hotmail come up with a blank screen even though it says Done at the bottom. What?

I am using Firefox 5 with Microsoft Security Essentials on Win XP Pro with SP3.

Check to see if you have cellular data enabled for mail.
Go to Settings > Cellular and check the apps under "USE CELLULAR DATA FOR:"

My iPhone has suddenly stopped working. It now says the battery is dying and to charge it. After charging it for over an hour, there is no change. The power won't come on, and I am left with a blank screen advising me to plug my phone into the charger.

Try different USB Cable, try different Charger. Clean iPhone charging port with clean dry toothbrush. If still problem and you have Warranty or AppleCare, make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple for resolution. If no coverage, most likely it could be battery or charging port assembly that need replacement.

I set Firefox 3.6.13 to start with a blank screen. Firefox ignores that option and starts with the Google screen. How do I get the blank screen?

I sent to Tools\Options\General and set "When Firefox Starts" to Show a Blank Screen. Didn't work. I made other settings but Firefox ignored the settings and defaulted to the Google screen each time. I have uninstalled Firefox three times and deleted all remaining files and references to Firefox I could find but when I reinstall Firefox 3.6.13 the Google screen is back.

I am now seeing this same IP address resolution problem slowly (but surely) populate into other browsers (firefox and internet explorer) in windows. The only way I can rationalize this is there is some kind of address resolution problem with one (or more) of ICANN's DNS servers.

l have an apple tv 2 generation please help me

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
Open iTunes.
Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
(You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device)

My mail, which used to work, comes up with a blank page, with no escape.i no longer connects to to the internet as it once did.

My email, which used to work, now comes up with a blank page, with no escape.

Wayne-
Can you get back to the home page? If so, double click on the Home button and a row of recent Apps will line up along the bottom of the screen. Scroll across and look for the Mail icon. Press and hold on it until it starts to wiggle. A red minus sign should appear on each icon. Press the minus sign on the Mail App to remove it from the list of recent Apps. This will stop it from running in the background.
If you can not get back to the home page, try to reboot the iPad. Hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears. Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow. The iPad should restart in a couple of minutes.

Laptop only coming up with a blank screen after set-up?

Ok, so. My parents bought me a brand new hp laptop for christmas. On christmas day i went through the whole set-up process and did all the steps it told me to do. When i'd been through all the steps, i got a loading symbol and ever since, all it comes up with is a blank, black screen and a mouse icon that i can move. I'm not 100% sure of the model though (appologies). What do i need to do??
Cheers

Companyweb pulls up with a blank screen

The company that I work with uses a company web that is hosted by a SBS 2008 Server. I can access the companyweb with chrome or safari, but Firefox does not work. The other two come up with a white screen and then a authentication box comes down to ask for your credentials. Firefox does not do this. It just has a white screen. It is not just my computer that is doing this. It seems to be all Macs that have Firefox. What is also weird is that Firefox for Windows works fine.

I actually found the answer here in the following article when I did some more searching.
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Releases/30/Site_Compatibility#Security
Apparently, Firefox did not like the type of authentication their sharepoint server is using, so I had to disable the NTLMv1

What to do if it freezes with a blank screen

Tried to restart the mac pressing CMD+Opt+On/Off then pressing CMD+R+On/Off with the restart sound going off. However, it still freezes with a blank screen. All control buttons such as brightness and volume do not work at all. After waiting for few seconds, it ask me to press Return key if i wanted to put english as my language which i did and still with a blank screen. A few seconds later, the edges around the keyboard became hot. Then i tried to restart it the same process a few times, still the same results. This happened right after i login into my account.

My iPhone4 vibrated for ages with a blank screen, now it won't turn on.

My iPhone4 vibrated for ages with a blank screen, now it won't turn on. It was fully charged as well.

Plug it in to wall power. If it doesn't automatically come on within 15 minutes, try a Reset... press the home and sleep/lock buttons until you see the Apple logo. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings. You might need to hold the buttons for as long as a minute.
If it still doesn't turn on, you likely have a hardware problem.
