Restarted Firefox and now cannot access some sites

I restarted Firefox and it has given me a text only version of Facebook saying it's an untrusted connection.

You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
*Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
Clear the cache and remove cookies only from websites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
Check the date and time and time zone in the clock on your computer: (double) click the clock icon on the Windows Taskbar.
Check out why the site is untrusted and click "Technical Details" to expand this section.
If the certificate is not trusted because no issuer chain was provided (sec_error_unknown_issuer) then see if you can install this intermediate certificate from another source.
You can retrieve the certificate and check details like who issued certificates and expiration dates of certificates.
*Click the link at the bottom of the error page: "I Understand the Risks"
Let Firefox retrieve the certificate: "Add Exception" -> "Get Certificate".
*Click the "View..." button and inspect the certificate and check who is the <b>issuer of the certificate</b>.
You can see more Details like intermediate certificates that are used in the Details pane.
If <b>"I Understand the Risks"</b> is missing then this page may be opened in an (i)frame and in that case try the right-click context menu and use "This Frame: Open Frame in New Tab".
*Note that some firewalls monitor (secure) connections and that programs like Sendori or FiddlerRoot can intercept connections and send their own certificate instead of the website's certificate.
*Note that it is not recommended to add a permanent exception in cases like this, so only use it to inspect the certificate.

    If they have a tech support line I'd call your university. EIther their stuff isn't working with iOS7 or maybe they have some insight as to why it doesn't work.

  • I did a software update on my ipad and now cannot access the internet. how can i fix this?

    I did a software update on my ipad to 8.1 and now cannot access the internet.  How do I fix this?  My mail updates, but to get internet access I had to move from wifi to cellular data, and now even cellular data does not allow me access.

    Hi Go to settings Reset Network Settings After Reset you need to enter your Router wireless key Before you do this turn off your Router for 30 seconds Also an option is to go on Websites for your make of Router look for any Firmware updates but you can do this later. Cheers Brian

  • I recently updated my IOS software on my IPAD with the latest version and now video from some sites does not run. I did not do the update on my other IPAD and the video runs fine. Any idea why.

    I have an IPAD 3 and recently updated the IOS software with the latest version and now video from some sites will not display where it did prior to the update. When I go to those same sites on my other IPAD that I did not do the softward update the video still works. Any idea why and what to do to fix it?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • I have upgraded my iPhone to iOS 5.1 and now cannot access the camera from a locked screen.  Has anyone else had this problem?

    I have upgraded my iPhone 4S to iOS 5.1 and now cannot access the camera from a locked screen.  Anyone have any suggestions?

    From the lock screen, to access the camera you touch the camera icon and slide in an upward motion. It no longer takes a tap to get it to open.

  • I changed my aol password on my desktop and now cannot access my emails through my iphone.

    I changed my aol password on my desktop and now cannot access my emails through my iphone. I tried changing the password on my phone but it still says user name or password for aol is incorrect. I have also deleted the account and added back and it still saids the same thing. I would really appreciate any help on this.

    You are referring to your iTunes/app store account? You will need to sign out of your old account on your iPhone and sign in with the new one.

    Seems like ios6 isn't any good for any of their devices. I have an iPhone 4 and recently updated to ios6 and have had all the wifi problems and apps getting hung up on load screens. Restore is your best bet and downgrade if you can back to ios 5.1. If restore doesn't help with a fresh install of ios6 then call every Apple support number you can find and be heard like the 1,000s of other people like us with ios6 problems demanding support. There doesn't seem to be any quick fixes for ios6 other than an update from Apple.

  • I have just updated my iPad and now cannot access any apps as they just close down straight away. Any ideas why and how to solve?

    I have just updated my iPad and now cannot access any apps as they just close down straight away. Any ideas why and how to solve?

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    I've also seen it suggested that people try downloading a free app from the store onto the iPad (as that seems to reset something), and then re-try the apps - the free app can then be deleted.

  • Cannot access some sites in either Firefox or Safari

    I'm not sure when this began, but last month I tried to go to Ebay in both Safari and and Firefox and neither would find the site.
    Here's what I'm using:
    MacPro Desktop 2 x 2.8GHz, Quad-core Intel Xeon
    8GB memory
    Snow Leopard 10.6.8
    My network is set to 'Automatic' Using DHCP
    I have a FIOS router and have no firewall or security setting on my Mac
    I tried to get to Ebay using a proxy on the same computer and it went to the site. I tried also on my laptop that uses Leopard and the same FIOS router and was able to get the the Ebay site. I go to many sites including email, just fine on my desktop MacPro. A few sites will access some times and other times won't. Ebay never accesses on my MacPro, so this seems to be my test site.
    I'm guessing something got changed in my network setting with an upgrade, but not sure what to change under network settings.
    Anyone had a similar problem, or know what I need to do?

    Thanks, I am my own profesional as I've owned Mac since the Plus. It is probably the Mac as the router also feeds my other computers and they work fine. I just put in Google DNS 8.8.8.8 & 8.8.4.4 and it seems to be working okay, but I guess the Trojan can proably attck these too. Is there a virus app for these trojans?
    Let me start by saying that I doubt that either of the following possibilities are what you are suffering, but mention them just in case. I would expect to see you suffering several other symptoms associated with them.
    I can't figure out how the DNSChanger Trojan is able to do anything now as the perpatrators are behind bars awaiting extradition and the FBI is operating their servers as normal DNS's for at least another week and possibly until July. Never-the-less, I have seen a very few confirmed cases here in the forum. The fastest way to find out is to go to http://dns-ok.us/ and look for green. If it's red open the FBI document linked for the fix. MacScan did provide a fix for this, but I'm not certain that it removed all versions. I've recently read that one version actually changed the router settings as opposed to your Mac, so you might want to double-check there, as well.
    But there is another possibility. One user who was infected on Feb 22nd with the Flashback.G or higher Trojan reported Google redirects associated with it. Iomega has yet to confirm this, but they have been working with that individual and may be in a position to confirm something shortly. To check for this malware open the Terminal app (in /Applications/Utilities/) then copy and paste "defaults read ~/.MacOSX/environment" without the quotes, hit return and if you see something about "DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES" then you are infected. Paste the results here for instructions. If it doesn't find the file or says something else, then that isn't your problem.
    The MacScan's "Spyware" application is still alive and well. They just updated their definitions yesterday for what they are calling Flashback Trojan 3.0, so it may be capable of finding the latest of these, but I'm not certain. MacScan does have a reputation of sounding "False Alarms", so don't panic and start deleting things without confirmation.

  • I had to reset Firefox and now cannot find the calendar, how do I get it back?

    I was removing files associated with web.longfintuna.com from my PC. I then reset Firefox. When I open Firefox, all my email, bookmarks.etc. are there. However I cannot find the calendar. I had it before and now cannot locate it.

    When you reset Firefox then a new profile is created and some personal data (bookmarks, history, cookies, passwords, form data) is automatically imported and the current profile folder will be moved to the desktop (Old Firefox Data).
    You will lose extensions and other customizations (toolbars, prefs) that you've made.
    It is possible to recover more data from the old profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem.

  • Firefox updated to 19.0.2 and now cannot access aol emails...simply will not open; OS windows 7, 64bit -- what's the fix?

    after update to Firefox 19.0.2 supposedly optimized for aol, browser seems to work fine except for aol mail.
    AOL mail opens, however after selecting new mail it will not allow one to open a new email by double clicking the message as is a normal way to open an email. It can be opened by right clicking the selected email message and selecting open in new window; however this mail cannot be replied to, saved or any other option as the option buttons on top of new window are inoperable. What's the fix- never was a problem in earlier versions of Firefox

  • I've downloaded Firefox 4, now cannot access Windows Live Mail and have spent many hours trying to resolve including uninstalling, system restore etc etc

    I have a Sony Vaio Desktop (ie high spec) and have not had any software problems until I downloaded FF 4 and lost my WLM. I've tried so many ways to try to resolve this. The Sytem Restore is not working - ebven though I created a restore point for 4 May and disabled all the security settings etc.
    I can access my WLM account on my work PC - but note that the address list has gone.
    Really grateful for your help - thanks.

    Update:  I tried the "Toshiba Recovery Wizard" after everything else either fizzled out or hung up. After going all the way thru the recovery process (up to 100%), I finally got an error message.....it didn't work. And now, when I fire up the computer, I don't even get to that menu with the recovery options....the only thing I can boot into is the screens with the various ways to run your OS (in "safe mode", "safe mode with networking", etc).
    I'm not a techie, but I'm guessing at this point, the part of my hard drive that got damaged in the fall was, at the very least, the partition with the recovery data. Couple that with the fact that this cheapo Toshiba laptop didn't even come with recovery disk (or ANY kind of disk, even basic installation software!), I'm screwed: I don't see any way to get a workable computer now without some kind of disk to boot from. So NOW my concern is more about spending the $$ for a new OS and THEN finding out the hard drive has other problems too...is broken in some other way to boot.
    How to check this? As I said, I did run "chkdsk" back when I could get into the recovery menu and run the fix-it programs. It didn't note any problems. Thinking of taking this opportunity to upgrade to Windows 7 from Vista (which I never liked), but I have to know that the computer is otherwise ok....how to be sure? Help!!
