Some websites wont cache

I have browser.cache.check_doc_frequency set to 2 but some webpages simply will not cache. Is there a way to force this? Memory use is not an issue

Thanks for that useful information.
I installed a version of that script (just removed the if url check so it applies to every site). It works for some sites, not others (like this one).
There definitely needs to be a setting added to firefox to override the pageshow/pagehide event hijacking user control over caching. I shudder to think how many billions of unnecessary packets are sent every day and how much time and bandwidth is wasted reloading information that is exactly the same and already sitting on your computer [Idiocracy].

Fonts in some websites wont render

I got the interface fonts to render, and they seem to work fine, but some (a lot) of websites text wont render at all. The problem seems to be in the way it handles CSS, that if a font listed in font-family is not installed on the system, it just wont render the text, instead of skipping ahead to the next font, or falling back on the default.
I found on my site if i set the font to something on the system, it will render.
Anyone else had any similar problems?

Sounds like the same problem I was having - a possible solution can be found in this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=993285&tstart=0

Some websites wont stream videos others will

Since buying a new computer, I have had perpetual issues with flash running correctly. I have always been a fan of chrome and naturally that has been my primary browser for the life of this computer....at some point in time, the flash (either after being updated/or @ some point) quit streaming videos on certain websites....(showtime anytime, and divx movies from places like movie-forumz being the most important.) At first, after doing some research on the web, I was led to believe this was a chrome issue and tried to do the workaround of disabling either the pepper flash or the adobe flash in the plugins section of chrome....this did nothing for me. I even posted a question on the chrome forums to see if there was any way they could maybe lead me in the right direction. Well, they gave me some generic things to try (most of which I had already done) and were not a huge help. Since then, I've tried completely uninstalling/removing/reinstalling everything from chrome/shockwave player/flash player/frirefox etc. but to no avail. Recently, since I thought this was not going to get fixed in chrome, I thought I would try to stream videos from internet explorer. After making sure everything was set up (since, I had never used it) I came across the same problem....the same videos will not play in internet explorer as well. This is what lead me here. Thanks in advance......(I hope.) I have a fairly new computer. Specs below:

Since this is also happening with IE, I'm not sure a Chromium bug is relevant. While you might suspect Flash is to blame, but it's also possible other issues are at play (network throttling, server code, third party utilities/services, etc.)
Taking a look at the locations you've outlined on the Chrome bug:
www.showtimeanytime.com (loads, but will not play video, also does not show the length of the video as if it never actually began to load)
I just tried this with Chrome 25.0.1364.172 m on Windows 8. I had to install the Widevine Media Optimizer to get video to play. Have you done this? Have you tried contacting Widevine to see if they have any advice? Once I installed this and restarted the browser I had no problems playing from Showtime. I haven't seen any recent posts about Showtime, so I suspect this isn't a widespread issue.
http://www.putlocker.com/file/DC54509DC05BAC99# (never actually plays, just continually looks like it buffers) any video on
This link was broken and I can't seem to find another putlocker video link. However, have you tried reaching out to putlocker to see if they have any ideas? Given that this appears to be a fairly popular filesharing site, I would imagine we'd see a lot of complaints if Flash was not working properly here. To date, I've never seen any reports on this forum.
www.xvideos.com (hangs @1% until video is fully downloaded, then plays.)
I'm blocked from viewing this site. It's possible that this site doesn't allow streaming and instead requires the entire video to be downloaded before playing. Again, you should contact them to see what the proper experience should be.

Some websites wont refresh.

While watching football on Sundays, i have noticed the scores/game clock is way behind then whats on the tv.(page wont refresh). My fantasy football pages all run on adobe flash, which i can not download. Any help please.

Or you can describe your solution, so others with a similar problem can benefit.

Fire fox loads some websites and not others. Clearing cache and history doesn't help.

Fire fox loads some websites and not others. Pages that don't load in Firefox do load in other browsers. Clearing cache and history doesn't help.
One of the websites that doesn't load is google.com! It loads some of the page, just some menu items at the top of the page. Then, it hangs and remains in the Loading state (with the spinning wheel and "Loading" in the tab) indefinitely.
The problem started after 3.6.11 was installed. I'm on Mac OS 10.6.4.
I would be happy if you just showed me where I can download 3.6.10. Also, is there anything special I have to do if installing an older version?

I ended up going into the clear history settings and setting it to clear history when Firefox closes and chosing it to clear history and cooking and browsing history when Firefox closes. Now the links work fine and the last page I was looking at before I closed Firefox is no longer there when it opens again. Problem solved!

My MacBook uses Mac OS X Version 10.6.8. I am unable to access some websites, such as Facebllk, Gooogle, etc, but I can access other websites such as MSN, Amazon. I have emptied the Safari cache with no change. Appreciate any help.

Wont load media on some websites

pictures dont seem to load on some websites. Only started recently. have tried most the basic stuff. internet radio station (address below) doesnt play. some sites are fine. Videos play ok. no problem on other computers.

If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.
See:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load
You can use these steps to check if images are blocked:
* Open the web page that has the images missing in a browser tab.
* Click the website favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
* Click the "More Information" button to open the "Page Info" window with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
* Go to the Media tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
* Select the first image link and scroll down through the list with the Down arrow key.
* If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "Block Images from..." then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

Some websites are inaccesible. eg microsoft, trendmicro, adobe update, and many more
I noticed it first when I needed EFAT drivers from Microsoft.
I Could'nt access the site. Subsequently I have discovered other sites with similar problems.
two of my XP machines are exhibiting this problem. BUT one XP netbook is'nt.
my Linux Ubuntu 12.04 boxes are not affected.
The error I get is " Server not found at [insert url here] "
I can access google, ebay, facebook, my website, most other websites, both HTTP:// and HTTPS://
I cannot see what the difference between access and no access is.
My network is working fine and I can access these unobtainable websites using Linux running Firefox on this network but not on the XP machines with any web browser I have tried.
Its not AFICS a virus on the two machines.
I have isolated one machine from the network, and re-installed XP from CD, installed fresh Firefox, and while isolated from the rest of the intranet, connected to the internet Still problem exists.
I have tried different DNS servers,
I have changed the adsl router to a different manufacturers router and still the fault exists.
I am at my wits end here. Any help appreciated.
thanks

Can't access some websites. Possibly DNS problem.

This problem only started to occur a couple of days ago. I found that I can't access certain websites,but all the other computers in exactly the same network environment have no problem accessing them. I tried changing my DNS server settings from the servers my ISP provided to the Google DNSs, 8.8.8.8 and 4.4.4.4, and those websites I couldn't access before became accessible immediately, but some other websites, which I was able to access with the DNS provided by my ISP before, became inaccessible again. I tried using another set of DNS addresses, the same thing happened: some websites that I couldn't access before became accessible, but some others become inaccessible again. All these DNS servers that I used work perfectly on other computers in my network, so it has to be the problem of my computer. This has nothing to do with the browser, as all of the browers in my system have the same problem, even including the Internet Explorer in my VMware Windows virtual machine. I tried flushing the DNS cache with dscacheutil -flushcache, and it didn't work.
I'm using Lion 10.7.3 on MacBook Pro MC371. Please help!

Please give an example of a site you can't access now.

I can't access some websites, log in on some websites or have some websites remember my username and password.

Before I asked this question, I went through all the questions and answers and guides that were about problems similar to these but they never worked.
For some websites, it's as simple as not being able to log in. I will enter my account details but it will take me back to the log in page.
Some websites say that they can't 'redirect properly'.
I've looked up the solutions to these problems, but they didn't work. I think I'm experiencing another problem because one of the solutions that I think might work isn't being completed properly. When I try to do the 'use custom settings for history' fix, Firefox never remembers my settings.
The only add-on I have is AdBlock Plus.

Recently Mozilla is having problems displaying some websites. Previously these website displayed fine, and in Internet Explorer they still displays them fine.
For example. http://www.yr.no/ displays few graphics, and all the text is in times new roman font. The size of the font varies and things are bulleted. Links appear blue and underlined, and the rest of the text is black. The sites are now very plain and have none of their previous detail. How can I fix this?

Some websites, like Amazon and Shutterstock became garbled after I updated Java.

Some websites, like Amazon and Shutterstock show up completely garbled. I suspect problems with Javascript, and I'm pretty sure the issue started after I updated Java. I did all the troubleshooting tips listed on this site, and none helped. I booted Firefox without extensions and the problem prevailed. I don't know what else to do.
