Frequently visited website no longer recognizes Firefox browser. Happened same day as upgrade from 18 to 19.

Message from frequently visited website: https://www.mybenefitscalwin.org/
Tells me the website is encrypted; managed by HP; HP history shows I've visited this website 126 times; all appears good, but I get the following message after opening their website, on their screen!
Browser Not Supported
The Web Browser you are using is not supported by MyBenefits CalWIN. Below is a list of supported browsers.
Microsoft Internet Explorer (versions 8 and above)
Firefox versions 10 and above
I got this after upgrade from Firefox 18 to 19. Is that the reason?

Madperson,
This worked beautifully. Sorry for the delay in replying.

I changed the default browser from 19.0 to 18.0 on 2/21. Firefox just updated a few minutes ago (3/9) back to 19.0. The default browser remained at 18.0 after the update, and the website in question is still accessible. So looks like all is well.
Thank you very much!!!

    I had this hotmail issue myself a while back. I Googled, scanned MS website, scanned MSN website, visited forums, couldn't figure it out. I tried Firefox and Opera and even changed the Opera mask setting from Opera to Internet Explorer. Nothing worked. My best guess was that I was signing on (with the new MSN Live as opposed to MSN Hotmail - the OLD interface) with the "Remember me on this computer?" box checked. I now make sure it is un-checked (which is not the default) and hotmail lets me in.
    Not exactly sure if that is the real remedy, but thot I'd throw the story your way just in case...

  • Does anyone know how to stop the "frequently visited websites" box from popping up when doing a search in Safari?

    Hi,
    I just upgraded to Yosemite and Safari is now showing a frequently visited websites box right below the address bar when I start to type something in it. Does anyone know how to deactivate this box? Its rather irritating.
    Thx

    Uncheck the box beside "Show Favorites".
    I haven't tested this long enough to say that this works always.
    Best.
    Yup, that works.

  • HT1199 I-pod no longer reconised by computer since downloaging the latest upgrade from i-tunes?

    Ipod no longer reconised by computer since downloading the lastest upgrade from i tunes.

    Same here.
    I have tried all the repeated reccomendations I've found in other posts.
    Nothing has worked.
    I have tried installing older versions of ITunes also...will not recognize my library so it will not start up.  Have tried rebuilding it.  Not working....
    One thing that did work was resetting my Ipod nano...now all I have is the message "Please use Itunes to sync music to this Ipod." :/

  • Drop down menu in Navigation Toolbar that lists frequently visited websites does not work.

    When I click on the down arrow, the address already in the address box is highlighted. A list of up to 10 often visited websites would open up before. I have disabled Hardware acceleration and reinstalled Firefox 21.0.0 with no luck from either. I can go to Bookmarks/bookmarks toolbar/Most visited and see a list there, but would prefer to use the drop down arrow that I used to be able to use. Thanks

    Do you want to see a list of recently used URLs? See
    [[Awesome Bar - Find your bookmarks, history and tabs when you type in the address bar]]
    this can come handy too:

  • Frequently visited sites no longer shows

    Hi,
    For some reason "Frequently Visited Sites" does not show anymore. All that shows up is "Favorites".  Does anybody know how to re-enable Frequently Visited Sites?  I don't see a Preferences setting for turning it on and off.  It's been off for about a week now.
    Thanks....

  • Drive no longer recognizes blank DVD's since I've upgraded to Snow Leopard

    Hello, I have an issue with my Super Drive (the UJ-875). Since I've upgraded to Snow Leopard, the drive no longer recognizes any blank media in it. I've tried -R, +R, -RW and +RW. No dice. The discs can be put in the drive and ejected without issue, it's just they are never displayed in Finder or Disk Utility. When I try to burn a mounted disc image, it simply sits there saying "To begin, insert a blank disc". I've tried using the exact same spindle of blank TDK -R's that I was using before I upgraded the O.S. I also tried some blank Sony media and it doesn't recognize it. It should be noted that the drive doesn't seem to have any issue with previously recorded discs. Those appear to read just fine, it's only blank media that looks like the issue. Any answers you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Below is the Disc Burning information that's displayed in About This Mac:

  • When I try to scroll down to find a recently or frequently visited website, the browser will not allow me to do so. WHat is the issue?

    Anytime I try to scroll down on a dropdown style bar I cannot.

    Which button are you trying to click?
    Is that a button on the Bookmarks Toolbar or the location bar drop down list or a drop down list on a web page?
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • How do I choose my homepage to appear when opening a new tab instead of the frequently visited websites which appear by default?

    When I manually open a new tab, a page appears which has previews of some of the sites I frequently visit. Instead of that I just want my homepage to appear.

    See this article about the New Tab page (about:newtab):
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/new-tab-page-show-hide-and-customize-top-sites
    You can set the browser.newtab.url pref to the preferred home page.

  • Websites won't recognize Firefox update.

    I'm updated to the latest version but almost every website tells me I'm not.

    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.

    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''

  • Plugin problem with one website on my new Firefox browser.

    This is my second problem of the day:
    When I'm on one particlar website on the "chat" page (which is a streaming, real-time conversation "room"), a gray-black box pops up that says "Plugin is needed to display this content", with an action button, "Install plugin..." Now, the odd thing is that the content is already displayed perfecty and is functioning, but this box is blocking part of it. When I click on the "Install plugin..." button, another window comes up that says that a suitable plugin couldn't be found. But the original gray-black box won't go away, even when I click on the "X" in the upper right corner. ... Obviously a plugin is not needed anyhow; how can I get rid of this box?
    Thanks much,
    Bob

    This is not a reply; it's my adding the information that I just installed Xubuntu on my PC with Firefox included, and all the encryption and security that was offered.
    Thanks.

  • My Yahoo! Apps diappeared from Firefox browser window 3 days ago

    I posted this question yesterday, but it has not been resolved.
    The only response I got was from another person in the forum who was also experiencing this problem:
    The Yahoo! toolbar apps disappear and from time to time reappear again, but briefly.
    As I mentioned yesterday, I have disabled and re-enabled the Yahoo! toolbar; uninstalled and re-installed it; and also used the Mozilla Firefox Safe mode, etc.
    ...'''But''' no change!
    Yahoo apps briefly put in an appearance and then go--mainly they just go.
    ...Is there anyone out there who understands why this happens
    and what to do about it?
    Thank you for your attention.

    Hello Steve.
    You may be having a problem with some extension or plugin 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?
    If you detect a faulty add-on, you should contact its author for support. You can also search for alternatives. Site filters are relatively common in the add-ons gallery: [http://addons.mozilla.org addons.mozilla.org].

    We've seen this issue on some servers, but not on others running the same application. We're still researching the problem, but the best lead we've got so far is that it might have something to do with the network, either with not being able to look up a network address with DNS or accessing this address.

  • Firefox won't allow me to upgrade from the 1.5.0.6 version to the 3.5.2 version. What do I do?

    My actual version is too old, on most websites they keep telling me to upgrade my browser. Ever since I downloaded the 3.5.2 version the problem is even worse: a window keeps opening to ask me to either continue or stop the script...
    When I try to override the older version, a pop-up tells me that I don't have enough "privileges" for the newer version...???

    Okay, I will try to uninstall the old version, but I have no idea what IE means nor what a FF profile is... I am new to Mac and I know zero about keeping a computer up to date. This one was given to me a year ago and I have had no problems whatsoever until I tried to update my Firefox a few weeks ago. Ever since then, I have problems on most websites and I can't vision a pps in my email without fiddling with the settings a bit. My photo library keeps disappearing out of my Iphoto app and I have never been able to open any e-mail attachment with a .wmv
    Other than that, everything is peachy-keen and I will NEVER go back to a regular PC with windows! I love my Mac! I just know nothing about how to take care of it and keep it up to date :0(
    Thank you for taking the time to answer me!
