My Bank of America but works finwe site shows this message after signing in but works fine with Internet Explorer; "THE CONNECTION WAS RESET".

I checked with the bank & they said problem may be due to I do not have all the updates to Firefox or problem may not work with my favorite entry to bank site. I checked & did not have a problem with any pending updates. I did get to website and was able to enter ID and Password.
The site was fine when working it on Internet Explorer both through Favorites and direct entry.

Are you now using a direct connection?
Check the connection settings.

Hi!
Does this occur with other browsers? Is this will all websites you are trying to visit?
Thanks!

Firefox says "The Connection was Reset," but internet works in all other browsers

Whenever I open Firefox, it says "The Connection was Reset" on all pages. But, when I open Google Chrome the internet works without problems. I have already tried to change the proxy settings, but that didn't work.

Maybe also do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.

The connection was reset message only appearing on mozillas support and addons site

I received an error message involving a proxy when i tried going on netflix. I have the add on "media hint" which redirects the proxy through it, so i uninstalled it intending to reinstall hoping that would fix it, but i never even got that far.
When i went to the mozilla add on site, it said the connection was reset while loading the page. It said the same thing on the support forums (im on my phone now). I thought it was an https problem, but the irony is the only sites getting this error message were some mozilla sites. They work fine in other browsers.
I tried every solution i could think of or find on the internet and nothing has worked.

Getting "The connection was reset" on several sites

I just updated from FF21 to FF22. Immediately after doing so, I was unable to get into my Comcast email, the Google search page, Facebook, and even the Mozilla community. On some of them (such as Google and Facebook) I immediately got:
The connection was reset
The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.
The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
On other sites (such as Comcast and Mozilla), I can access their home pages with no problem, but when I go to sign in I get that message. Obviously, I haven't tried every page in my bookmarks, but I've tried enough to know that I've got an inconsistent problem.
I do not have this problem with Internet Explorer or Chrome (in fact, I'm using Chrome right now to access the Mozilla community, which adds yet another dimension to the definition of "irony".)
I've tried, to the best of my limited technological ability, to apply the suggestions given in other threads, with no success. (And I'd really rather not have to reload scores of bookmarked pages individually if I can avoid it!)
I have never had any problems with earlier FF versions (and I think I've been using them since about version 4). Is this a glitch with the new release? Should I go back to 21?

I'm having this exact same problem and the pages linked are not helping. I've tried disabling ipv6 and the prefetch, clearing the cache and cookies, reinstalling, and checking for malware. What gives? I was using Firefox fine until I upgraded.

Gargoyle https router logon not working after version 27, when I try and logon it just says the connection was reset. works fine with 27.0.1 must be a bug

I use a Gargoyle quota management router which has web access through https. It works fine with Firefox version 27.0.1 , and has worked for years with no problems. Somewhere after version 27.0.1 a bug was introduced which prooduces the error message "Problem loading page, The connection was reset, The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading" each time I go to the routers address. Reverting to 27.0.1 fixes the problem and it also works fine with Interney Explorer so it is not a firewall problem.

HI techman88,
Thank you for your question. I understand that the password for your router is no longer working in Firefox 27. Please download the new version of Firefox from your working browser and reset the profile.
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
More information about reinstalling Firefox can be found [[Troubleshoot and diagnose Firefox problems#w_5-reinstall-firefox|here]].
WARNING: Do not run Firefox's uninstaller or use a third party remover as part of this process, because that could permanently delete your Firefox data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and saved passwords. These cannot be easily recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device!
To reset Firefox go to about:support and and click Reset Firefox. However if there is a saved password in this profile you can manage the passwords under Options > Security> Passwords. Please check this out as well.

I keep getting "the connection was reset" etc when logged onto my bank.

When logged on to my bank (business account) and setting up weekly payments I can set up a couple of them but then I get the "the connection was reset" etc error message. If I try to log in again I just keep getting the same message.
Then I have to open up Chrome, log in to the bank, and finish the job with no trouble at all. Generally I prefer to use Firefox; but maybe not for much longer!

Thanks cor-el, I'll give your suggestions a try next week when I have to log into the bank.
Will let you know how I get on; I just hope I won't have to keep on doing it every time!

Keep getting this message - Tried your suggestions but to no avail.The connection was reset

Start now.com keeps appearing in the search line - bad news!! Appeared upon installing Firefox 4.
Also, unable to perform any search using Bing - see message below
I'll be uninstalling Firefox - it's unusable with Windows 7 Ultimate - unless you can fix your problem
The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.
The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few

Does your proposed address (don't post it) in fact contain any of these forbidden characters, i.e. accented letters or punctuation signs?
If not it sounds like a glitch at the server end: the first thing to do is to give it a day or so and try again. If it still doesn't work you will have to contact Support.
To contact iCloud Support: if you currently happen to have AppleCare, either because you recently bought Apple hardware or have paid to extend the inititial period, you can contact them here:
http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/
You will need the serial number of the covered hardware.
If you are not covered by AppleCare, then - in common with other free email services - there is no free support and you may be asked to pay a fee. You can reasonably insist that as it's their problem you shouldn't be charged.

Since I downloaded Firefox 4, I can't see attachments in my Yahoo mail. This is not a problem of Yahoo, because with Internet Explorer works fine. What is the problem?

Ad page for one site won't display, but works fine with Internet Explorer

Main page of one site displays fine, but ad page won't. Works fine under Internet explorer. Didn't have problem before.

When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
(You also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now")
(2) Remove your live.com cookies (save any pending work first) using either of these. While viewing a page on the site:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

When I try to but on line, the last action is to verify payment using my password for my banks verification screen, but the payment process won't then complete. it's fine with internet explorer, what setting do i need to change on Firefox? thnaks

Trying to buy goods/services on line using Firefox and all is fine until I get to the final screen, which is my banks verification screen (an added security). The payment then fails. I've used thsi happily before on Firefox, and it currently works fine on Internet Explorer - but no longer on Firefox. Have I inadvertently changed some security settings? I'm not aware that I have?
I'm keen to use only Firefox for financial transactions, so the lack of this facility is worrying me

Not sure if this Term is Relevant towards an iPhone but, my iPhone won't Post unless if it's plugged into a Charger.
