Recently, Firefox updated, page opens but then nothing, it will not continue and load up

I have Firefox browser on my laptop. It upgraded recently and does not work. Page will come up but then 'not responding' and remains that way.

Check the home page setting.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page - Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' symbols
You can try to delete the sessionstore.js [2] file and possible sessionstore-##.js [3] files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
* Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder

Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

    Presently running mac osx 10.5.8. Recent Firefox update says it no longer works with osx 10.5 and it's no longer supported by apple. Any suggestins?

    Use an earlier version of Firefox, use Safari, or upgrade to a later version of OS X. Any Intel Mac can run Snow Leopard.
    Latest version of Safari for Leopard: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1422

  • IPhoto opens but then the spinning rainbow wheel appears and I can't do anything. I have opend iPhoto with the Option key pressed and rebuilt the library and it still happens.  I want to at least access my photos and copy them to an external drive.

    iPhoto opens but then the spinning rainbow wheel appears and I can't do anything. I have opend iPhoto with the Option key pressed and rebuilt the library and it still happens.  I want to at least access my photos and copy them to an external drive. Anyone have ideas on how to get to them?

    Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    Click to view full size
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

  • I have CC and while attempting Light Effects, the Layer will appear in the layers panel, but the option bar will not appear and neither will the Properties panel. All my preferences are set correct, and my computer has a compatible video card and RAM. Ple

    I have CC and while attempting Light Effects, the Light Effects Layer will appear in the layers panel, but the option bar will not appear and neither will the Properties panel. All my preferences are set correct, and my computer has a compatible video card and RAM. Please help!
    I tried to delete the layer attempt again. I am in a Photoshop class, but the work is all online, so all my teacher is going to do is send me to this site. I am trying to edit a photo for this class, and without this working, i go to filter>render>light effects. the bar and panel will pop up for about 2 seconds, then disappear. How do i get the options bar and properties panel to display?

    I was about to suggest resetting LE from the Workspace drop-down top right corner, but if you can't see the Options Bar, I guess that is not going to happen.  The normal Tool reset is grey out for LE, so it might be a case of resetting Preferences.

  • Firefox will not continue to load unless I keep my cursor moving. How do I fix this?

    Firefox will not continue to load any request I have unless I keep my cursor moving. If I stop moving my cursor, it will stop loading my request until I move the cursor again. How do I fix please?

    i think the best option at the moment is to use the firefox 31 esr version: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/all/

  • My email client will open but the old emails will not.

    My email client will open on my mac mini but the old emails will not. I have some as far back as 2009.
    What can I do?

    Hmmm, sounds like they might not really be there!?

  • Safari will open but then nothing!

    Hi,
    I went to the apple store because of a problem with the fans coming on really loud and they re installed my operating system using a few cds in the store.
    I came home and everything seemed fine untill I tried to open safari. It opens but none of my bookmark menus are there and when I try to type an address into the window, it lets me type but then does nothing!
    Then when I try to go to the Toolbar at the top of my computer it will not let me click anything! It is very strange. I downloaded firefox and am currently using that, however I really want to figure this out!
    Any help would be appreciated!
    Thanks!

    Is there any other place this folder could be?
    •Click on the HD is it there ? Now I think about it that is where Previous System folder should be, been a little while since i did one.
    Also I read your next post and the links and it said safari might now work after an archive and install and you must re install the old version? How do I do that?
    I do not think they say the old version rather update to the lastest ( most recent version for your os). that is correct version os on your spex ->Mac OS X (10.3.5) look under Blue apple about this mac to make sure
    What version is the Blank page Safari, when launched under-> Safari
    About safari:
    Go to the Blue apple -> Software update and run that to see what is available for your os now. Are there any safari updates.
    Run permissions repair before & after uppdates with the Disk Utility do you know how to do that ? Look at Gulliver knowledge base article, I linked to you.
    You are using Firefox now & have your bookmarks good they are not lost!!
    •Again look for "previous system folder" in HD
    •What version is your blank Safari?
    •What is avaliable to download from the software updater
    •Read Gullivers Kbase article, before you update.
    Hope this helps

  • ICal app opens, stays open, but my calendar window will not come up

    very frustrating. I'm all up-to-date with software updates. As of last week, iCal opens, remains open, but I can't see my calendar window.
    I go to Window, Calendar... nothing. Any suggestions will be very helpful.
    Running Tiger (10.4.9) on a Powerbook 17" 1GHz. iCal version 2.0.5 (1069)
    Thanks

    I've got a similar problem, though with an intriguing difference. iCal opens, and stays open, but nothing is visible, same as you.
    But... day view works, month view works, but WEEK VIEW is completely blank.
    Not only that, if I have ever tried WEEK VIEW (and got a blank), then subsequent attempts to use both day and month views are significantly disabled, in that there are no buttons down the bottom right-hand corner (search results/todos/info) - I can no longer show/hide any of these any more, until I quit iCal and relaunch.
    Week view was originally my default view, which may or may not be relevant.

  • After updating to my iPhone to iOS5, Safari pages open but then immediately go back to the iPhone home page.

    Any solutions - help please!
    Thanks!

    Force-close the Messages app: from the home screen, double-tap the home button, locate Messages in the list at the bottom, tap and hold it until it wiggles, tap to close it, tap the home button again.  Try Messages again.

  • Just updated to FF7 - since then my plugins will not show PageRank - I've tried several plugins and they all always says pages are unranked.

    I've windows 7 and have just updated to firefox 7. since the update then all my plugins that show pagerank show all pages as unranked. The rest of the features of these plugins work fine. I'm using SEOQuake and Quirk SearchStatus.
    I've tried 3 different plugins and they all show the same. I've also tried the same in internet explorer and it works fine, so the issue appears to be with the new firefox. Any ideas?

  • Since recent app updates my Money dance app (via Apple) will not open, any ideas please.

    The programme worked perfectly until Sunday when two apps updated, it no longer opens.
    Around the Money Dance icon are little white circles that were not there before.

    You get an email sent to you for every purchase you make in iTunes. Check your email history. you should also have a credit card record if you didn't use an iTunes Gift Card.
    Second, Navionics posted an update to the app February 11, 2014. If you have not updated already, you should do so.
    If that doesn't work, contact Navionics directly for support with their app: http://navionics.com/en/customers

  • After updating to FF 20, the Welcome Message will not close, and there is no opt out.

    this is maddening. After updating to FF20, each and every time I open FF the stupid Welcome message is permanently displayed in a tab. There is no way to opt out. You cannot close it. I have tried cleaning out cookies and cache to no avail. I even signed up hoping that would automatically close it, nothing. I am really really annoyed now. Is this a new feature of Firefox, forcing their messages to appear without any means of closing them?

    You can check for problems with preferences and try to rename or delete the prefs.js file and possible numbered prefs-##.js files and a possible user.js file to reset all prefs to the default values.
