Some websites are working some wont open

firefox wont open google or my sky email but will open sky main page?! ive cleared cache cookies etc no luck and run full avast scan..again no luck..now downloading panda activscan as recommended by firefox help but no luck so far. It will allow some other websites to open like ebay though??Any suggestions? thanks

First, try to update to Firefox 11, it does have alot of security fixes and other bugs.
Then, if you still are having other issues, read [[Websites look wrong]], does that help?

  • Yesterday all web sites were fine, now some websites are fine, some are slow, some do not look correctly

    I am using a Dell inspiron 1525, running Windows XP, Firefox 5.0 both OS and Firefox have the latest patches and fixes applied. Yesterday all websites were loading, responding and appearing properly. Today some are working properly and some are slow and do not appear correctly. No updates were applied in the last three days. To make matters even more confusing, When I us IE, the sites work correctly. I believe it is something with this laptop because Firefox 5.0 works just fine with all sites on a different machine which runs Windows 7. I tried re-installing Firefox 5.0, going back to 4.0.2, 4.0.1, all resulting in the same outcome. I ran a virus scan and nothing was found.
    Any insight you can provide would be appreciated.

    Hi,
    Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
    Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
    To clear cache and cookies do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
    #Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
    #Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
    #From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
    #Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
    Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!

  • Despite my Javascript for Firefox 23 being "enabled" ( I checked re the "about:config" steps), some websites are still asking me to enable my Javascript.

    Despite my Javascript for Firefox 23 being "enabled" ( I checked re the "about:config" steps), some websites are still asking me to enable my Javascript to view content. Safari works without any problem. OS/X 10.8.4

    These files are hidden to me because my OS/X is 10.8.4 and I cannot make them appear. This is way, way more trouble than it's worth. Thanks for your help. Firefox has lost me.

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    and confirm. Test. If the sites still don't work, they're incompatible with Safari. Use another browser, such as Firefox, to access them.

  • Half of websites are working and half are not.. HELP ME,PLEASE!!!!

    This drives me crazy, I have a powerbookG4 with OS X 10.4.8 and use the internet without any problem until this morning, well actually when I figure out that I can go my school website or wikipedia, or hotmail and google,amazon but no access to any other website such as yahoo, or ebay.There is no relevance that I can find why some website is working while the others are not. I tried Safari, FireFox and Explorer, and it is the same thing. Yahoo and some other website simply don't open at all, and says that I am not connected to internet(safari) or firefox can't find the server.(and half of the website is always perfectly working)
    I don't know what to do, I emptied cookies and caches in no vain....
    Can anybody know what this is all about and help me out,please?????

    create a new user on you computer.
    - system preferences, accounts
    - click on Plus sign,
    - log out of current user, ( apple menu, bottome option )
    - log into new user
    - test out internet usage on new user
    : if issue is resolved in new user, then the problem is likely some preference file in the original user
    : if the issue persists in a new user, i would try to connect to the internet from a different location .
    : it is possible the ports are being blocked or filtered, or the DNS is not functioning properly

  • Some DvD's work, Some don't?!

    I have come across an irritating problem on a Macbook Pro 2009 model...
    I am trying to watch DvD movies on it. Some DvD's work, some don't. Sometimes it just ejects the DvD automatically, sometimes it claims it's blank, and there are times when the thing actually works - for specific DvD's
    I am a bit suspicious with this ordeal. I'm thinking it's the version of my operating system and there's a bug in it that causes some DvD's with certain specs to not work...
    For example, the DvD for the actual Harry potter Deathly Hallows P1 movie works, but not the special features. The DvD for the movie "The Number 23" works, but not the one for the "Black Swan".
    Thoughts? Broken reader? Bug that needs to be patched? or is Apple being bullies and preventing me from watching "burned" DvD's or something similar because I can't look at any dvd's with manually burned movies.

    Hi P,
    Super drives are known for being picky about the discs they'll read. It's normally not what's on them, but the brand of disc, or sometimes even the speed it was burned. Do you have two of the exact same brand/model/speed of burned discs and one works while the other doesn't?

    hello there! i am using Adobe acrobat pro DC and using windows 8.1. Recently I was trying to convert a web page (includes Greek letters) into PDF. I noticed that the conversion is not accurate, some words are missing, some are misplaced. Especially Greek words are not accurately converted or even not converted. Please give me some suggestions to improve this issue. Regards

    Hey quantum info,
    Thank you for posting at Adobe forums. We would love to help you out.
    Could you please let me know if you have tried converting other web pages to PDF and checked if the same issue persists.
    How have you been trying to convert the web page to PDF?
    Are you trying to convert to PDF directly via browsers or using "File > Create > PDF from Web Page"  option in Acrobat.
    Let me know more so that I can analyze where actually the issue persists.
    Hope to hear from you.
    Regards,
    Anubha

    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
    Click: Change Settings to the right of Proxies. That will prompt the System Preferences > Network > Proxies pane.
    If any of the boxes on the left are selected, deselect then click OK.
    Quit and relaunch Safari to test.

  • Why do some videos from some website stop working after seconds or minutes on a new iPad

    I subscribe to some website posting videos. The videos will start as it should and then stop after, sometimes seconds, and sometimes minutes after the beginning.
    The iPad is less than 3 weeks old. it is already the second. The first was a 16 GB this one is a 32 GB. no difference. This issue does not happen with only one website but other posted videos from other websites.

    This and other answers helped me to understand better why I cannot view these videos and search for answers. I found that the videos posted by this website end in .cfm, and doing research cfm is Adobe and is not compatible with apple software ? why this is not resolved is surprising to me - Several other people experience the same issue as I (dating 2007-to 2013) I am not computer literate but I know how to find information on the web and know +or -  how to use the programs. There seems to be nothing that will convert these videos into a format that the iPad could process and allow. should I buy quicktime for my windows device and transfer/sync it to the ipad (?)(3 weeks old I paid $900) will this work. I have tried to upgrade the firmware to my router but no luck there either; even following all the steps religiously. the unzip is not working? I get a file the upgrade button rejects.
    if it is this cfm format that is doing that, then there is no reason to spend x$ into a new router : the issue will remain the same- is this statement correct ?
    your help is greatly appreciated.

  • Some websites are downloaded very slowly from a user account but they are OK at admin in Win XP.

    In my Win XP computer I have an administrator account and a normal user account. Since a few days, certain websites (e.g. mail.yahoo.com) are very slow. Same websites are OK when I am in administrator account.

    Another observation is that, sometimes plugincontainer.exe is crashing.

    Hello.
    It's possible that you are 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 caused by one (or more than 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] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). 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 and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
    If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
