Some websites will randomly (and others ALWAYS) load as lots of random symbols and black questionmarks

Basically sometimes a website I've already visited fine, along with some websites which ALWAYS come up as gibberish, load as this: [http://i.imgur.com/OR27s.png]. I've got the kill helvetica greasemonkey script, it happens in safemode and with every encoding choice. Everything works fine in IE.

If you see code like this "AlstrÃ¶m Bros Â“Whoa!" then UTF-8 should be send by the server and selected by Firefox.
Did you try to clear or bypass the cache?
You can also try to disable compression by setting the pref network.http.accept-encoding to an empty string or only leave deflate.
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
You can use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a pref more easily.

Some websites keep asking to enable cookies in my browser when they are and I can't get this sites to see that, they worked fine yesturday but not now, any help

Some websites keep asking to enable cookies in my browser when they are and I can't get this sites to see that, they worked fine yesterday but not now. I've restarted the browser, restarted the computer, disabled then enabled cookies in the privacy settings and still nothing. Any help?

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!

Thumbnails on some websites will not show up

I have Firefox 22 & WinXP Pro. Some websites will not show a thumbnail picture on my home page. I have read all the articles on thumbnails & none of them help. I have cleared the cache, loaded the page by left clicking the blank thumbnail & letting it load. They are NOT https sites & I do not use private browsing. The sites WILL show pictures on my homepage in Google Chrome, so it's not the website. I will try to attach a screenshot, but I do not see a browse button. Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Phil

Hi Cor-el:
Thanks for responding. I went to Tools/Page Info, but couldn't find a "general" category. The website http://www.bridgeclues.com/ does show up in Chrome & used to show up in Firefox. How can I tell if there's a no-store or no-cache header?

TS2446 If i create a new apple id account on my ipod, will i still have all my music, apps, books and other stuff on my ipod that i downloaded and bought with my old account or will i loose everything; will i be able to still do the updates to those apps?

If I create a new apple id account on my ipod, will I still have all my music, apps, books and other stuff on my ipod that I downloaded and bought with my old account or will I loose everything; will I be able to still do the updates to those apps?
I really need help!

I don't think you understood what I wrote. You don't HAVE to pay for everything if you are happy with using the other account for updates, etc. But if you don't want to do that then you will have to buy new copies of everything for the new account. There's only one purchase item per account, but you can redownload an item in the account many times.
The idea is this:
One computer, multiple devices, one Apple ID.
One user, multiple devices, one Apple ID.
The basic idea is that each user has an Apple ID under which he/she can manage multiple devices on a single computer.
Once you step outside of that model you create such problems as not being able to use or update apps purchase under one Apple ID when using a different Apple ID. Or not being able to easily sync one device on more than one computer.

Reinstall OS X, either from disc or a recovery partition. You don't mention which version of OS X you're running so I don't know which it will be.

Running Windows XP service pack 3. Updated Firefox from 8.0 to 9.0. Now when Firefox opens "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded" is displayed in a window and no home page appears. What's wrong?

That issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I had a similar problem and after deleting endlessly...and weeks of frustration I (without even realizing what I was on to) deleted my text messages. I had been letting them add up since it seemed easier to text someone if it were readily available. Needless to say, I ended up with nearly double the space/memory available.

I do not believe that your parents will go "spastic" because your iPod was stolen. I'm thinking that you jailbroke it yourself. Am I correct?

Ipod screen is frozen and the screen is stuck on the itunes symbol and charger sign we have tried resetting but it is not working

ipod screen is frozen and the screen is stuck on the itunes symbol and usb cable and will not clear off when we tried to reset

The picture you describe is the subject of the Update and restore alert messages on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch support article. There are troubleshooting suggestions there.
Hope that helps.

I tried to update and now my phones frozen with the itunes symbol and wont restore. What do i do?

Did you try to connect in recovery mode again? iOS: Unable to restore

Firfox 8 is sometimes very slow to load random websites and others it loads quickly, IE8 loads all websites ok. Have cleared cookies and cache and allowed ff as exception in Windows firewall.

I use FF 8.0 (x86en-US) as default browser, since update to 8.0 FF intermittently takes ages to load some websites, sometimes not loading the site at all. To rectify this I go back one page to the Google results or hyperlink and ask FF to load the webpage again. This usually solves the problem but not always. I have cleared cookies and cache and added FF to exceptions in windows firewall. The websites affected are not always the same and some that load quickly one day can take ages next time. IE8 loads all websites OK. Antivirus and malware scans all clear.

Some websites will not load in FF. Same websites will load in IE.

Certain websites will not load in FF, but will load in IE. FF starts to try to load the page, but then stops and "Done" appears in the lower left corner of the screen, which displays as a white, blank page.

Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Perhaps if you post the URLs we could take a look and then make informed suggestions.

Some website will not load

There are several websites that just won't load with my router. I've connected the internet right up to my laptop and it works just fine. We have 2 laptops on the network and it won't work with either of them. I tried to do a ping test using one of the websites that won't load and I keep getting a message that say request timed out. I was able to do a ping test on yahoo.com and it worked right away. I'm not too savvy on networks and routers so I'm hoping that someone here has a simple solution. Especially since some of my favorite websites won't load.

Hmm, Now you've got me wondering whether our problem is the router and not the satellite internet.
Here is one site that used to work for us and has not worked since going over to satellite and a router: www.spamarrest.com (a spam filter service)
See if that one works for you or you get the "unable to load" message.

Why can some websites work well in other browsers but not in Firefox 3.6?

Today I went to Turbo Tax.com to file my taxes, but for some reason Firefox 3.6 would not let me get past logging in and their homepage. At first I thought it was the website, so I contacted their support who couldn't figure out the problem, so I opened Chrome to see if it would work on it. Guess what I did my taxes without a hitch. On Gamefly.com Firefox won't let me move a selected game to the number one position, but it will on Netflix.com. Firefox is my default browser and I would like to keep it as such but I can't with this kind of iffy proformance. Help! By the way I am running Windows 7 64-bit on a Dell desktop pc. Comodo is my firewall, Microsoft Security Essentials is my anti-virus. FYI

Although that error references the problem line in the script as line 71, that line actually has numerous commands in a compressed form that is very hard to read, so I can't see immediately what the issue might be.
In case one of your extensions is involved, have you tested the page in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
Any difference?
