Updated firefox, now I am unable to connect to the internet via mozilla but other browsers still work

When mozilla asked my for an update several months ago I chose to skip the install and wait. Did the install soon after and firefox stopped working even though my connection to the internet is fine. I uninstalled mozilla firefox, used another browser to access the mozilla website to reinstall firefox. This fixed my problem and firefox was working again, until another update came along. This time attempting to uninstall and reinstall did nothing. Once again I am left using another browser to use the support forum and firefox is not working. Please help!!

That is an indication that a firewall is blocking the new version of Firefox. For details see [[Firefox cannot load websites but other programs can]].

No animation or videos will play from Firefox, but other browsers still work fine. I have checked plugins and even updated to the Firefox 14 beta - no fix

As of yesterday no animation or videos will play from Firefox, but other browsers still work fine. I have checked plugins and even updated to the Firefox 14 beta today, but this did not fix the problem.
this problem started yesterday; before then there was no problem.
I have updated everything I can find, and ran a system restore and disc clean.
The problem still persists. What am I missing here?

This happened to me too. This problem started suddenly with no changes made on my part. I had 11.2 Flash version with Firefox 13. I tried updating to the new Firefox, same problem, then updated to Flash 11.3. I even uninstalled RealPlayer.
I read a solution on another forum and it was as easy as clearing my cache. Everything works fine now (even after reinstalling RealPlayer and allowing the download button function).

Curve 9380 unable to connect to the internet via wifi

I'm using curve 9380 and unable to connect to the internet via my home wifi, there is no blackberry logo beside the wifi signal symbol. I don't have this probelm if I'm using my laptop or curve 8520 to connect to the internet via the same wifi router. Please help. Thank you.

Check firewall, if you're on wifi then try ethernet to rule out interference. It is likely a network issue.

Hello Rattisate,
Sorry to hear you are not able to connect to Wi-Fi on your MacBook Pro. I would be concerned about this too. You can find information on how to troubleshoot this in the following article:

Follow the steps in the section labeled, "Symptom: My Mac does not connect to the Internet."
Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.

Connected to the internet via ethernet, BUT...

I turned off my computer, modem, everything and uplugged it all because of a severe lightning storm Saturday. Since I turned it back on the next day I haven't been able to access the web or my mail. However, the problem must be with my G4, because I have an iBook on Airport and I'm able to connect to the web and email with it. So the cable modem and Airport are evidently working properly. My G4 network settings all appear normal. I've got a green light saying I am connected to the internet via ethernet, but I'm really not. My email won't go online and no browser works, although I don't get a "can't connect" message on the browser screen, it just stays white. I had this problem before but I can't remember what I did to correct it. I just remember unplugging the modem and Airport over and over, in different order, and resetting preferences. But I don't remember what I did, if anything, to actually make it work again. Does anyone have an idea on what I can try to REALLY connect?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Frustrated in Florida,
EG

Tough to troubleshoot lightning in person, moreso at a distance!
Things to try...
Type 17.112.152.32 into your browser... thinking it may be off looking for a DNS server that doesn't exist.
Launch Network Utility and see if you can Ping like that addy, or your other computer.
Results may help us get further.

I am unable to connect to the internet via WiFi connection. My iphone works just fine. Please advise possible solutions.

I have an iPad on v5.01. I am unable to use my wifi network to connect to the internet. My wife's iPad works fine. Please advise any potential solutions.

Have you checked to see if your WiFi router needs to have your iPad's MAC address specifically permitted to use WiFi? Some WiFi routers have a section in the settings called "Access List", possibly under "Security".
You can find the MAC address in Settings > General > About > Wi-Fi Address

I am unable to connect to the internet even though my wi-fi is working

My iPad is connect to a wi-fi from my router but when i want to go on to the internet it says Safari cannot open the page becasue it is not connected to the Internet. What can I do to solve this?

There are two aspects to your router setup.
One is to make a wireless connection between the router and your devices. It sounds like that is fine.
Your router also has to establish an internet connection. It is possible to have a perfectly good wireless connection, but still no internet access. This is because your router is not connected to the internet.
Usually, there are a series of lights on the router that show wireless status, (A)DSL (the line delivering broadband to your house) and finally the internet. What is the status of your router?
If there are some issues, try rebooting the router (switch off for 5 seconds and then back on again)
Good luck
Max

I could use \Firefox ok but all of a sudden i can no longer use it. I get a message saying there is a problem connecting and although i am connected to the internet and can use other browsers, i cannot use firefox. It is allowed through my firewall.

i think i may have caused this wheni inadvertently pressed upgrade when i had an internet explorer message appear.

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

IOS 5 update on iPhone 4 - no connection to the Internet via GSM

Hello,
After the iOS 5 update my iPhone is unable to connect to the Internet via GSM. I tried to reboot and restore the device and also to reset the networ data transmission settings. So far neither of these worked. The Wi-Fi connection works after the update just fine. I also contacted the carrier to make sure my service subscription is ok.
Does anyone have a similar problem?
Thanks,
Tomek

Had to restore the phone to fix, after making sure all the possible settings everywhere were United States and English, but it worked. Still find it amazing that an update would change so many settings in so many places, especially the ones that aren't on the phone.

My iMac won't connect to the wifi it has been connecting to for a year. All other devices still work. Any suggestions?

IiMac won't connect to the wifi anymore. All other devices still work with wifi any suggestions?

Try the basics first:
Change your router channel number. Most times this works & is all you have to do.
Disconnect & reconnect your modem. unplug it for about 10 seconds. Plug it back in. Do the same for Apple’s routers. Wait for everything to reboot.
System Preferences>Network
Click the Assist Me button.
In the next window that pops up, click the Diagnostic button & do the necessary.

You need to restore the iPhone via recovery mode. To do this follow the link below to guide you:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
Because you need to restore to factory settings all data on the iPhone will be erased. Because the iPhone was never backed up most of the data you won't be able to get back.

I recently updated my iPod touch to sync through iCloud - now can't connect to the internet through wifi, my macbook air is working as we speak

I recently updated my iPod touch to sync through iCloud - now can't connect to the internet through wifi, my macbook air is working as we speak. ive tried 'forgetting this network" in settings; tried turning off and on again; and pulling my hair out! The last was equally useless and a little painful!

Try:
- Resetting the iPOd. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Pwer off and then back on yur router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reet Network Settings

Suddenly unable to connect to the internet

hi all,
my mac's been working fine the past 4 years, when suddenly, a couple of days ago, i turned it on to surf the net, thats when this peculiar problem occurred..
i went onto firefox, typed in a url, but the browser is unable to load anything from it. tried other urls, same thing. tried using safari, same. i restart into this windows partition in the same computer, and i can surf the net as usual!
i connect to the internet via a wireless router that links to an adsl modem, so i try to access my router via its IP address while running mac os, and okay, the browser manages to load the router's webpage. after some fiddling around, i discover that i can actually load websites if i enter their IP address, but not urls, so the problem is most likely something to do with the dns. but the thing is i use the same dns under windows, and it works (and still does). i try using google public dns of 8.8.8.8, and it still doesn't work in mac, while in windows it works perfectly. tried turning off the firewall in mac, no improvement.
what is wrong with my mac?!
oh btw, i think one day before this happened, i just did a software update that gave an update on iLife, but can that actually cause this problem?? didn't change any other setting other than this as far as i recall..
let me know if any specs are required and i'll post them up.. thanks in advance guys!

Hi jf_element and welcome to Apple Discussions!
It sounds like this is an issue with Domain Name Service. Possibly your Internet service provider changed some settings and didn't tell you or possibly your settings have been corrupted.
Go to your *System Preferences* (under the Apple menu) and select Network. Select AirPort from the list of ports on the left. Click the Advanced button. In the resulting dialog box, click on the DNS tab. Is anything listed here? Contact your ISP and ask them for the IP addresses of their domain name servers. Those IP addresses should go here.
Best of luck.
