Hotmail opens as a blank page in firefox

Hello,
I started having a problem opening hotmail a few days ago using firefox. When I click on www.hotmail.com it opens as a blank page with no error message. I can open it in IE but I don't use that browser as it is too slow for me. I have followed all suggestions including, clearing cookies, cache, plugins, downloaded latest version of firefox and I still can not open hotmail. Please can someone help me? Thank you

This happens to me intermittently. Some days, I can login fine other days, all I get is a blank browser page. Works fine in Safari and Chrome. But all issues happen under Firefox. However, if I try enough times, and at some point just let the blank page just sit there (for as long as a couple of hours), Hotmail eventually loads up. Perhaps, just a coincidence. That an underlying issue that comes up from time to time, gets resolved with no notification to us. None of the tips have resolved this blank page issue, as well as not seeing the buttons at the top (ie. Reply, Forward, Delete, Archive, etc...) They get cut off. Only way to seem to view them is if you increase the font size in preferences, but then all the fonts in all webpages get huge. Also the AddThis plugin doesn't work well with the new Hotmail (Outlook.com). When you choose Hotmail as an email to send the link to (using AddThis), it takes you to an error page. Any other email client works AddThis fine. ie. AOL, Yahoo and Gmail.
Personally, I think this is a Microsoft issue with Outlook.com, that Firefox has not been able to address.

  • Had multiple problems with Firefox 4..went back to 3.6.16. Now always opens to a blank page rather than my chosen home page, no matter how many time sI have set it to open on my homepage. Running Windows Vista. Any suggestions?

    $ was totally jacked up, no tabs, no history, no buttons that worked and always opened on a blank page. I saved my bookmarks, uninstalled 4, reinstalled 3.6.16 and all my problems went away except for the oening on a blank page. As soon as I hit home, it opens.
    Tnx,

  • Ever since upgrading to Mountain Lion, my AOL messages sometimes, but not always open with a blank page. If I open AOL in Firefox, the messages open fine.  This does not happen with any messages by any means, and it is not any type of certain message

    Ever since upgrading to Mountain Lion, my AOL messages sometimes, but not always open with a blank page. If I open AOL in Firefox, the messages open fine.  This does not happen with any messages by any means, and it is not any type of certain message. In fact, in the same screen I can often open an email from the same sender with email intact. This is weird. Sometimes I close the page and open a new page. Sometimes that works and sometimes it does not. It is a very annoying thing.

    Hi,
    When you start Messages fro the first time you are asked for an Apple ID
    When this is verified and entered it appears in Messages Menu > Preference > Accounts and is Enabled.
    The App should have also picked on on those iChat Accounst you had before.
    These should be Enabled if they were when you last used iChat.
    Exactly which "Accounts" are logged in can be seen in Message Menu > Accounts and will include the iMessage "Account" and Bonjour.
    In the Window menu you will see CMD +0 for the Messages window and CMD+1 for the "Buddies" window which is a combined list at this stage.
    Go to the Preferences > General Section and Untick the "Collect all accounts into one list".
    This will give you separate iChat type Buddy lists.
    You can check if that account/Buddy list is set to Invisible or if in the Preferences > Accounts > Security you have settings that will block some people from seeing you as On line.
    You are saying Buddies can see you as On Line which implies they are still sending to your AIM based Names (@Mac.com is a valid AIM Screen Name)
    I am not sure from your post if you are trying to iMessage their email IDs thinking they are Apple IDs and that they are using Messages as well.
    There is no Buddy list for iMessages side
    No-one can tell you are "On Line" until they have your details in the "To" spot in Messages with the correct iMessaged contact info (iPhone Number or Apple ID)
    Obviously an Apple ID can be an email or look like one.
    In some cases they are also valid AIM Screen Names as well.
    In the case or the @mac.com name you may have linked this Apple ID to iMessages as well.

    I actually need help but cannot find the answer.
    Please.......Lately when open a new tab it does not open with a blank page. I don't want to set my homepage as blank as when I first open Firefox, it automatically loads my hotmail page. But then if I open other pages I don't get a blank page. Help, please?
    Thank you.

    hello, please refer to [[New Tab Page – show, hide and customize top sites]] in order to switch the feature off.

  • My desk top shortcuts to favorite web sites only open in a blank page. I have to then reload in a new tab from the toolbar or a bookmark. It is annoying but not critical.

    I have shortcuts on my desktop for yahoo mail and a few other sites. I used to be able to go directly to them. Now it opens in a blank page and I have to load the site in a new tab from the toolbar shortcuts or a bookmark. Also my saved passwords no longer exist. It all happened after a firefox upgrade to my yahoo tool bar.

    You would get better response from the iTunes community forum.
    Have a nice day!

  • How can i open a new blank page, if i open a new tab??

    how can i open a new blank page, if i open a new tab?? because if i click the plus "+" sign(at right corner) it open a website that i don't like.... please help meee....

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See:

  • Allowed pop ups but safari won't open my Uni website. It just opens a fresh blank page? Using sim not wifi would this have something to do with it?

    I have a new iPad and am trying to open my Uni website. I have allowed pop ups but it just opens a new blank page. I'm using a sim not wifi, would this have anything to do with it?

    Thanks again ...
    This trouble is fairly new as I just got my MacBook Pro.  It's been going on for 2 weeks or so.  Prior to the MacBook I was using my old PC laptop and never had any difficulty.
    Nobody else seems to be having this problem at school and IT is completely unhelpful.  I've been told that nothing's wrong with the uni's internet/network, it's my laptop. 
    Could it be that the uni's network doesn't recognize my new Mac's IP address (I think that's right) and for some reason is blocking access?
    As for the VPN idea - I think I get it.  Can I set that up myself?

  • I updated safari and now it opens with a blank page.  I can open a page after that but my homepage doesn't open.

    When I launch safari it opens with a blank page.

    Hey mate,
    I was having the same problem. If you upgraded to Lion - apparently there is a 'general tab' in the system preferences that has a box that you need to un check. (The box says something about restoring all last windows from last session)
    If you updated Safari but are not using Lion, here is how to fix it. Simply delete this item fromyour Mac HD and restart Safari.
    [USERHOME]/library/preferences/com.apple.safari.plist
    Hope this helps... It worked for me!

    Dealing With The Resume Feature of Lion
    Managing Mac OS X Lion's application resume feature.
    If you shutdown your computer you should get a dialog asking if you want applications to resume on the next startup. Simply uncheck the box to prevent that from occurring. Open General preferences and uncheck the option to Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps. You can also install a third-party utility to control resume features on individual applications: RestoreMeNot or Application State Cleaner.
    It is possible to completely stop the Resume feature although I'm unconvinced that it is that annoying. Nevertheless see the following:
    If you have not yet done so you must first make your /Home/Library/ folder visible. Open the Terminal application in the Utilities folder. At the prompt paste the following command line:
    chflags nohidden ~/Library
    Press RETURN. Quit the Terminal application.
    In the Finder navigate to the /Home/Library/Saved Application State/ folder. Delete the contents of the folder. Back up to the /Home/Library/ folder. Select the Saved Application State folder. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. In the Sharing and Permissions panel at the bottom click on the lock icon and authenticate. Set each of the listed entries to Read Only. Close the Get Info window.
    Quit all open programs except the Finder (this is very important.) Next, navigate to the /Home/Library/Preferences/ByHost/ folder. Look for a .plist file with "com.apple.loginwindow." in the file name followed by some numbers in hexadecimal. Select the file. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window and in the Sharing and Permissions panel click on the lock icon and authenticate. Set each of the listed entries to Read Only. Close the Get Info window. If you also find a file with the same filename but with a last extension of ".lockfile," then you should delete it.
    The above should eliminate the Resume feature system-wide. Note that any future system updates or upgrades will likely undo these changes. You will then need to repeat this procedure assuming there are no major changes in OS X related to it.

  • My Brother MFC-J615W prints blank pages from Firefox 3.6.18

    The printer works fine with other programs, prints blank pages form Firefox.

    Try the '''''reset''''' described here: <br />

    Make sure you reset all the prefs for that printer.

  • When I close Firefox (all tabs) and then reopen later, it does not offer the link to restore my prior tabs, it opens on a blank page, not even a home page v 9.0.1

    I "upgraded"/ "updated" firefox to version 9.0.1, there are no newer updates offered. I used to be able to restore my prior session upon opening firefox the next time, now it doesn't even offer that link on the opening page. And it does not open a 'homepage' for firefox, just a blank page, with one empty tab/window, this is not an improvement

    Hi glivezey,
    Try typing ''about:home'' into the address bar. Is that the page you are looking for? If so, go to ''Tools > Options > General'' and save it as your homepage. If that home page doesn't show up the next time you start Firefox, you should look at [[Preferences are not saved]].
    Hopefully this helps!
