New upgrade fails to load web sites on Mac 10.5.8. Old version is just fine. Please fix it. Thanks.

No answer to this question on 9/5. Older Firefox version works great. New one fails to load websites and is slow when it does. Often requires loading browser twice. Site load only partially. Have Mac lap top 10.5.8. Is Firefox working on this problem?

  • My Firefox will not load any sites. I used it yesterday and it was just fine, haven't installed/uninstalled anything, and today I have nothing.

    I uninstalled, reinstalled, and reinitialized Firefox but I am still unable to load ANYTHING.

    hello, there was an update to firefox 18.0.2 recently, so maybe see [[Fix problems connecting to websites after updating Firefox]].

  • Since yesterday's (Nov 6th) update, firefox fails to load any sites from web (still displays html files from PC). I tried restore, didn't help.

    I've installed the recommended update yesterday (Nov 6th) but didn't restart Firefox. Since restarting the computer this morning, Firefox has failed to open any website from the web. The connection is ok, explorer loads the sites normally, Firefox opens tabs as normal, it's just that the content of the pages doesn't show up, and after a while we get messages like "connection timed out". HTML files that I have stored on my own hard drive display normally in Firefox.
    I tried "restore Firefox" but it didn't help.

    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container 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.

  • Safari slow to load web sites

    Safari is very slow to load web sites. They can be frequently used sites or new ones. They just take a long time to load. I'm not sure how to trouble shoot this. I'm on Yosemite 10.10.3
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    There are many possible causes for problems with web browsing. Below are some simple steps that may help either to solve the problem or isolate the cause.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    1. Restart your router and also your broadband device, if they're separate.
    2. If you connect to the the router with Wi-Fi, turn off Wi-Fi and then back on.
    3. If you connect with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi.
    4. If your browser is Safari, then from the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    and confirm. If the Downloads button (with the icon of a downward-pointing arrow) is showing in the toolbar, click it and then click Clear in the box that appears. The download history will be removed.
    5. Select the Extensions tab in the Preferences window. Turn all extensions OFF and test. If there's an improvement, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
    6. If you're running OS X 10.10 or later, select the Search tab. Uncheck the box marked
              Enable Quick Website Search
    if it's checked.
    7. If you're running OS X 10.9 or later, select the Advanced tab and uncheck the box marked
              Stop plug-ins to save power
    Quit and relaunch the browser.
    8. Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest.
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    9. Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
    10. If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test.
    11. If Parental Controls is active for any user, please turn it off and test.
    12. Open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the boxes marked Safari and Photos, if they're checked.
    13. Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and if so, are they affected?
    14. If you can, test Safari on another network.
    15. Start up in Recovery mode. In the OS X Utilities screen, select Get Help Online. A clean copy of Safari will launch. No plugins, such as Flash, will be available. While in Recovery, you'll have no access to your saved bookmarks or passwords, so make a note of those before you begin, if they're needed for the test.

  • Firefox continuously brings up errors while trying to load web sites.

    Over the past few months I have been having problems with Firefox loading web sites. I get the error of either the connection timed out or server took too long to respond, etc, etc. I have done all the troubleshooting tips like emptying cookies, deleting history and I even started Firefox with all plugins and add on disabled and still the same thing. I did the update for the plugins and all that and still no luck. I even uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled Firefox. I checked to make sure it wasn't my system and I even disabled all addons, plugins, and anti virus software and still no luck. The same thing happens even in private browsing mode. This has been happening ever since the last Firefox update. I can't connect to eBay, Dell, and some others even after putting those sites on the safe lists in my firewall and everything. I have no problems with other browsers. And every once in a while if I click "Retry" the page will load fine. And when the "Retry" button doesn't work, I right click and choose reload which works from time to time. Opening up the error console under "Web Developer" option and select the errors tab, it lists nothing but a bunch of Java exception errors and wrong css coding for the sites.
    So what is going on?

    Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode? <br />

    In order to have the page load correctly, have to manually resize the page.
    How can I fix this?

    I'm sorry, but Apple does not provide a downgrade path for iOS. Because downgrading is unsupported by Apple we cannot discuss it on these forums, but you can use Google to find information on how to install an older version of iOS on any iDevice.

  • Airport: connects to network, fails to load Web

    I just bought a used Airport for my Clamshell (lime) iBook. Its installed, and seems to have connected to the wireless network. The status is up with a signal level over 3/4 up. However, when I type any url, I get the message :
    The attempt to load 'Accessing URL:...' failed.
    Does any one have any thoughts on this?
    I'm using OS9, and a very old Netscape and IE (which I am planning to upgrade once I connect).
    THANKS!!!

    Hello
    OK, it's been a while for OS 9, but I have a couple of ideas...
    First, is your network secured with a password? If so, is the password entered EXACTLY correct into your iBook? I used to have this problem...if the password is not EXACT, my iBook would show a signal - but I couldn't get online, and there were no error system messages - the only symptom was that it wouldn't load web pages, or check e-mail.
    Second, are you sure you are connecting to the proper wireless network? I live in a duplex-style house, and I can "see" two or three different networks. Depending on which room I am in, my portable may not automatically connect to the one I want (mine, in my living room), and I will get a signal in the Airport icon, but I can't load any web pages
    A suggestion to see if you do have network connectivity: run software update. If it runs successfully (doesn't return a network error), then the error is probably in your iBook. If it doesn't run - then you aren't connecting to the internet and you might want to check the above ideas.
    hope this helps

  • Logic8 w/ BFD2 upgrade "Fails to load Audio Unit"

    I had BFD 1.5 and now I installed BFD2. I got the latest update. Now my old songs (Logic 7 songs) do not recognize the BFD1 audio unit. The message is: "Failed to load Audio Unit, please contact the manufacturer for an updated version or further assitance. (-10110).
    The drums aren't loaded or anything. This means I would lose my old song settings for BFD, too tedious to fix.
    Runnning OSX 10.5.2 with Logic 8 on a G5 with 3GB.

    Actually not- just remembering that I had this problem immediately on 2 different computers with exactly the same up to date software: my MBP and Powermac. These must actually be legitimate disagreements in the software that Apple will have to address and the best thing to do is to leave feedback.
    My reasoning is this: I was running Sampletank(ST) v. 2.2.2 without problems when I installed samplemoog, then samplemoog wouldn't load but ST can load it's instruments the same and everything was fine. Then I installed ST 2.5 and it wouldn't load. So it seems that manufacturers are getting ahead of the old A team- but to forgive is divine and thus forget the upgrade for the old version.
    There are plenty of Sampletank XL users out there so perhaps you could report running v. 2.5 without problems? Obviously something trips Logic up and it may well be the upgrade. It's possible someone who just installed the newer version wouldn't have the problem but that's beyond me.
