I am getting the "Problem loading page" error when trying to run gmail. I've tried many of the suggetions, but I have a Mac not a PC and cannot figure it out.

I got a new MacBookPro a couple of weeks ago, and am unable to get Firefox to load GMail. I've tried lots of the suggestions on here, but none seem to work. I have to use Firefox in order to have access to class through Blackboard, but I can't get my e-mail. It is becoming frustrating.

You could of course use Safari your default browser as a quick method of accessing gmail until you figure out the Firefox problem. (More than one browser may be used on a Mac or other computer).
Is this the only site you have problems with ? and does Safari work ok ?
Often this problem requires the page to be reloaded
* try pressing the shift key as you reload the page
Another problem is sometimes the cookies for that site need clearing
* see [[Delete cookies to remove the information websites have stored on your computer#w_delete-cookies-for-a-single-site]]_delete-cookies-for-a-single-site
* see also [[Firefox and other browsers can't load websites]] or[[Firefox can't load websites but other browsers can]]

  • I receive the "problem loading page" error message many times daily

    I frequently receive the error message "problem loading page." "Server not found... Firefox can't find the server at www.whatever.com" shows up in the window and I click the "Try Again" button. Sometimes I have to click the Try Again button several times to connect to the desired website.
    What should I look at to solve this problem on my 3 office computers connected via cable to an older neatgear router?

    You can check the connection settings.

    If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then try to select "No Proxy" if "Use the system proxy settings" or one of the others do not work properly.

  • I installed dropbox in my applications and now I want to delete it.  Dragging it to the trash isn't working because I get a message that dropbox is open, but I have hardly used it at all and cannot figure out why or how it is open.

    When I try to uninstall dropbox I get a message that it's open, however, I never use dropbox and cannot figure out how to close it in order to move it to the trash.

    Look in the menubar for a blue icon shaped like an open box and click on it. Click on the gear icon and select quit. Now you can throw it away. DropBox is an almost faceless program - it puts an icon in the menu bar and that's all it shows.

  • Updated windows. Firefox gives "Problem loading page" error everytime now.

    my computer told me that windows updates were available and that I needed to restart so I did. When the restart was complete firefox doesn't work at all now. It jut gives me the "Problem loading page" error no matter what website I visit. I have tried removing it from my windows fire wall and re-adding it but that did not help. I also try to uninstall firefox and reinstall but that didn't help either.
    I am using Widows 7 for what it's worth. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Try these in order.
    Type '''about:preferences#advanced'''<Enter> in the address bar.
    Under '''Advanced,''' Select '''Network.'''
    Look for '''Configure How Firefox Connects''' and press the '''Settings''' button.
    Check the settings.
    Some problems occurs when your Internet security program was set
    to trust the previous version of Firefox, but no longer recognizes your
    updated version as trusted. Now how to fix the problem: To allow
    Firefox to connect to the Internet again;
    * Make sure your Internet security software is up-to-date (i.e. you are running the latest version).
    * Remove Firefox from your program's list of trusted or recognized programs. For detailed instructions, see
    '''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/configure-firewalls-so-firefox-can-access-internet Configure firewalls so that Firefox can access the Internet.]''' {web link}
    '''[http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/ Download Firefox Full Installer For All languages And Systems]''' {web link}
    Save the file. Then;
    Using your file browser, open the '''Programs''' folder on your computer.
    '''Windows:''' C:\Program Files
    C:\Program Files (x86)
    '''Mac:''' Open the "Applications" folder.
    '''Linux:''' Check your user manual.
    Look for, and rename any Mozilla and Firefox folders by adding '''.old''' to them.
    Now run the full installer.
    If all goes well, remove the OLD folders when you are done.

  • Problem loading page, error the proxy server is refusing entry

    My computer crashed a week ago, with numerous viruses. After it was fixed, when I go into Firefox, the screen I get is Problem Loading Page, then in a dropdown box it says the proxy server is refusing connection. Cannot get into the internet. What can I do?

    In Firefox 3.6.4 and later the default connection settings have been changed to "Use the system proxy settings".<br />
    See "Firefox connection settings" in [[Server not found]]
    You can find the connection settings in Tools > Options > Advanced : Network : Connection<br />
    If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then select No Proxy

  • How can I include a success message in a drag and drop interaction - I don't see this option in the Actions on success options, and cannot figure it out?

    How can I include a success message in a drag and drop interaction - I don't see this option in the Actions on success options, and cannot figure it out?

    I suspected you used the eye icon on the timeline to hide the message, but that one has no impact whatsoever on the published version. It is only meant to be used for editing reasons on the stage, to hide objects temporarily on a crowded stage. It is confusing, certainly in CP8 where for both instances the same eye icon is used. In previous versions the Properties panel had a checkbox for 'Show in Output', which was IMO much clearer than this eye icon. But of course, that is only my personal opinion.

  • I get problem loading page (error 404) it says the page cannot be found when i try to access the game Mobsters through my mysapce account and i cannot access it no longer through firefox and i want to find out why i cant, can you guys please help?

    i cant access my mobsters account through myspace. every time i try to access it i get "problem loading page" "this page cannot be found" "404 error" and it wont let me access it. myspace works fine but as soon as i click on the mobsters app i get the 404 error, this page cannot be found, problem loading page! can you please help?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == i try to access mobsters game through myspace

    I dont understand the answer
    '''''""The problem can be solved by opening FF and choosing Tools...Add On's...select the SEARCH addon and choose UNINSTALL...restart FF browser when asked, then reload Mobsters. This worked for me. The suggestion on the 404 that says to remove Search via Add/Remove Programs is completely BS, as Search doesnt show there. ""'''''

  • When I open news or other sites in tabs, I get "Problem loading page" errors on all tabs that I attempted to open.

    I just upgraded to Firefox 20.0 as you "suggested" and now whenever I try to open a new site in a new tab, I get the error "Problem loading page". However, if I open them in new windows, they come up just fine. What have you done to a reasonably running browser?

    I can't think of any reason for a new window to load well but not a new tab. It could be the second try effect. Firefox sometimes seems to give up on a site instantly, but if you reload, everything is fine. Could you try a reload in the same tab the next time and see whether that works? Not that it's a good workaround, but just to get a better idea of what's happening.

  • Askmen 'problem loading page' error in FF6. Page doesn't load up.

    The Askmen website doesn't load up in FF6. The page loads to the FF 'problem loading page' page.
    At the same time the url also changes to http://uk.wrapper.askmen.com/

    No problem here.
    Try the Firefox SafeMode. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
    # You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    # Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

  • How do I use the product formula in Numbers?  I want to calculate the product of three numbers?  In Excel it is simply calculated as '=b4*b5*b6.'  How do I do this in Numbers?  I cannot figure it out, and I can't type in the Excel type formula.

    Can someone tell mr the steps to write a formula to calculate a product of the cells?  I cannot figure it out.

    You double click the cell the product is to be placed in.
    Then click the "=" from the little bar that appears above the numeric keyboard.
    Then click cell B4.  That should place its reference in the bar to the right of the equal sign.
    Then click the "x" from the function guide next to the numeric keypad.
    Then click cell B5.
    Then click the "x".
    Then click cell B6.
    Finally click the green check mark on the right.  Done.

  • When I click on a aite to open it, I get a problem loading page ,and even retrying doesn't help

    I am running XP media center edition. I just had to get it wiped clean and an XP program reloaded, but now when I click on a link, it try's to open another page, but says trouble loading page.

    Hello Donald.
    Although possibly not related to your problem, I will remind you that the version of Firefox you are using at the moment has been discontinued and is no longer supported. Furthermore, it has known bugs and security problems. I urge you to update to the latest version of Firefox, for maximum stability, performance, security and usability. You can get it for free, as always, at [http://www.getfirefox.com getfirefox.com].
    As for your issue, you may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on 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?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
    If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

  • HT1695 I have just returned from a trip and cannot figure out how to reconnect with my home Wi Fi, which is functioning fine on my desktop.

    I am unable to connect my iPad to the internet following a trip.  My home WiFi is working on my desktop, so I know I should be able to connect.  I'm a cyber-nincompoop and can't figure it out...please help!

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Thank you

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that 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 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.
