Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> 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.

Some web sites not working in FF but they are OK in Safari.

A couple of times lately I have had web sites not work correctly with Firefox. I need to switch to Safari to complete the tasks I needed to do. My FF is running on Mountain Lion and is up to date.
Thanks,
MJT

Hello michaeljt, the sites you have problem, is it with a lot of flash content ?
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.
Please reload the webpage while bypassing the cache using '''one''' of the following steps:
*Hold down the ''Shift'' key and click the ''Reload'' button with the left mouse key.
OR
*Press ''Ctrl'' + ''F5'' or ''Ctrl'' + ''Shift'' + ''R'' (Windows and Linux)
*Press ''Command'' + ''Shift'' + ''R'' (Mac)
See if this helps solve the issues you had and please report back to us!
thank you

Hi ritawickham,
We've actually put together a troubleshooting section for [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/web-pages-dont-load website loading issues]. Have you had a chance to browse the documents there? If not, you should take a look. There is a lot of useful information.
Hopefully this helps!

Why are web images not loaded on Safari?

In many cases, as I open my Safari browser most web sites are not showing any image or picture. This happens for example for:
- Google MAPS
- airbnb.com
I have tried many times to empty cache and restart Safari, but it does't work at all. The same behaviour happens on Chrome browser.
I've got a MacBook Air 11' (End 2010) with OS X Lion. Even with Leopard I had the same issue.

Could this be a Flash issue. Is Flash installed on your machine?
I believe the Air does not come with Flash installed so you have to install it yourself.

Web sites not loading properly / Account Error: Nonexistent

Something strange has begun happening with the websites I've been publishing through iWeb and Me.com -
When the site loads, parts of it are missing or load improperly, such as a picture, or a border around a picture, and so on.
However, the really strange part is that when I refresh the page, a different part of the website is missing or has loaded improperly, each and every time. It almost seems like the server is choosing at random which elements of the website to load, and which not to.
Often when refreshing, the site doesn't load at all, and a white page with the error, "Account Error: Nonexistent" appears, but upon refreshing again, the site goes back into its cycle of random loading.
This only started for me recently, and I would be greatly appreciative if anyone knows the cause and fix to this problem. I don't know if it's iWeb that caused this, or Me.com, or even something else I've done.
Thank you kindly!

I have exactly the same issue on several pages of mine. If I publish them on my MobileMe master Account or family member account, these random loading difficulties occur. If I publish on another Account that I got from Apple Support for testing, it works perfectly. So it has something to do with certain Accounts on MobileMe, for example with mine... In my case, the problem is always here, around the clock. If I reload the page, it usually works but not always.
Apples MobileMe support is on the case since 4 days, I will post results as soon I have any.
Sometimes, the menu of the page does not load, sometimes images are missing, sometimes fonts are wrong, sometimes the background is missing, sometimes I have an the message "Account Error: Nonexistent". When I reload the page, it usually works or the problem is slightly different.
I did publish the sites from scratch, without improvement. It happens on other browsers than Safari and on other OS like Windows XP. It really is a problem with MobileMe. UNACCEPTABLE !

Web sites not loading on EDGE at my office

I've been using my iPhone 8 gig successfully to surf the web and the YouTube app on both Wi-Fi and EDGE (even though its slow) at home, at the gym, and at Starbucks. However, right now it's not working. We don't have wi-fi set up in our office, so I have to go through EDGE. Whenever I try to load a site I get the error "Safari can't open the page because it can't find the server." I have full bars and am able to make outbound calls and receive inbound calls. Any ideas?

I am having the same problem here, as well. I was able to load web pages and email earlier today (albeit seemingly slower than I was able to this weekend) and now, all of a sudden, it's not loading web pages, my weather and stocks widget or email. I am getting the same error message you mentioned. I have full signal strength, the little "E" up at the top and nothing. I've even tried turing off wifi and restarting the phone to force it to use EDGE as the default also with no luck.

Web sites not loading correctly

Hope someone can help Please.
This is not the first time this problem as occured and I can not remeber how it was resolved previously?

Thanks for the response. I tried Chrome and it is shoving the page into mobile mode.... Firefox is doing the same too.

Hi srskss lab, Welcome to Apple's Users Help Users Forums.
I see you have double posted on essentially the same topic. Suggestion: close one out by saying that's what you are doing and copy/paste the URL to the other post.

Web pages not loading in Safari 7.0.5

Hi,
I have a MacBook Air 13 inch, running on OS X 10.9.4. I recently updated to the latest OS from my AppStore Updates settings. I have Safari 7.0.5. Since last one week I have been facing issues in loading webpages on Safari. I use a local internet provider and I use internet over a WIFI. I have a 4mbps speed from the provider. The webpages such as Facebook and Youtube, gmail etc open up very quickly. But many other pages do not open at all. The progress bar on the internet url just completes 15-50 % and then the page doesn't load. I don't even get an error message. Some webpages where I find issues are speediest.net.in or gmatclub.com etc. Even some of the apple discussions don't open.
I tried the following on my system to resolve the issue
1. DNS Prefetching: Set the DNS Prefetching to 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220
2. Tried to disable DNS Prefetching
3. Chrome also behaves the same way
4. Tried using Guest Login. Issue is still the same.
5. Reset the WiFi router. Issue still the same
To make sure there is no issue with the internet provider or WiFi router, I tried on a windows laptop and strangely everything not only works fine but also at the optimum speed.
I am facing similar issues on the iOS device iPhone 4S.
Can some expert kindly help me in resolving the issue. I am not sure what is causing this.. OS Upgrade or something different.
Thanks
MS

From the menu bar, select
           ▹ System Preferences ▹ Network
If the Network preference pane is locked, click the lock icon in the lower left corner and enter your password to unlock it. Then click the Advancedbutton and select the Hardware tab. Select
          Configure: Manually
and
          MTU: Custom
Enter an MTU value of 1280.
Click OK and then Apply. Test.
You must apply the change before it takes effect.
If the issue is resolved, experiment with higher MTU values until you find the highest one that works. The higher the MTU, the better the network interface will perform.
If changing the MTU has no effect, restore the Configure setting to Automatically.

New favicon will not display in Firefox, but does display in Safari

I am working on a new website and uploaded the favicon.ico into the root folder (Go Daddy). The favicon appears when I use Safari, not does not appear in Firefox... I have a mac OSX version 10.5 I have cleared the history and cache too. Any thoughts?

I have this problem too. I've just loaded my favicon.ico into my root folder and it shows next to the site url in latest Safari 5.0.5, but not in Firefox 3.6.17 - neither next to the site url nor on the page name tab.
Firefox also does not show the favicon in the Tools > Page Info > Media tab, although this does list just three of the many jpgs and pngs within its folders. I've just added the favicon.ico to the folder where it does see a jpg and png, but no joy, still not displayed. See attached png.
How do I overcome this problem? Is there a plugin that resolves this issue? It would be nice to have some color in the page name tabs. Many sites, such as this one, do have their favicons displayed by Firefox...

How can I fix that registering for a GoToMeeting webinar is not confirmed using Firefox but is confirmed using Safari?

When I registered for a GoToMeeting webinar using Firefox, the site did not send a confirmation e-mail with the registration information for the webinar. With the Safari browser on an iPhone, the site did send the confirmation e-mail. This has happened recently with another web site as well. How can I fix the problem? Thanks.

I recently upgraded my Mac to OS 10.6.5. Now the links in my incoming emails will not open in Firefox, but they will in Safari. What do I do?

there is nothing more to add.... links from a wide variety of sources simply do not open up firefox and open the website like they used to. I can copy the links and paste them into firefox and they will open.

this answer does not help at all. It tells me how to change my mail client for outgoing mail. I use iCal from mac, which is the default mail program, and it works well for me. The problem is with INCOMING mail that contains clickable links that will not open the page in firefox. When I click them nothing happens. iCal and Firefox used to play together just fine; now firefox doesn't answer when I click a link sent to me and received in my iCal.
Thanks for your help.

Photobucket images do not show on Firefox but do so on Safari.

The photobucket website will not display my photos that I've downloaded. This is only a problem with Firefox. Safari has no issues with this.

Sites not loading in Safari

Sometimes when typing in an URL in Safari and pressing enter, the address disappears, and nothing else happens. If i do it again, the site loads as normal. This happens randomly in about 1 out of 4 cases. I have tried all i can think of, and today I even did a clean install of Mavericks. It did not solve the issue. I have tried using another network, changing DNS etc. Is this a bug in Safari?
