What does it mean when things load only if I move the mouse?

Well, sometimes after a prolonged session the web doesn't load unless I move my mouse around a bit.
For instance,
I click a link to something, the tab icon shows a sign of loading for about half a second and then it just stops.
If I move the cursor with the mouse (or trackpad), the loading continues and finishes.
This problem resolves itself when I restart Firefox, but I still want to know its cause and how I can prevent it.
I don't know what to make of this, and the circumstances are odd enough that Google is not helping me figure this out for myself. So I'd like to know if anyone can help me out.

That issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
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.

    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

  • Why my browser load only if I move the mouse?

    My browser load only if I keep moving my mouse. It happen when it has to load embedded videos and load other websites. Plus it always crush when I'm trying to open PDF pages. I always be very loyal to firefox, but if the problem persist i would have to change browser and I don't really want to...

  • What does it mean when a plus sign shows up before the number?

    I have a question that is going to sound very strange to some.
    I have had two incidents with my iphone where I went to pick it up and it started dialing a number--A number I didn't dial and a number that didn't dial me. This happened on two separate occasions. Both times, there is a plus sign before the number. It is a domestic number and I have never seen the plus sign on my phone except when this has happened.
    Does anyone know what that plus sign indicates?

    NEVERMIND! All you have to do is tap the upper right corner of the ipod on a hard durface and it worked!!!!!

  • HT1551 what does it mean when I see a black screen with the Apple logo but it wont do anything but that.  I have re booted 4 times  same outcome.  Help!

    I just hooked up my Apple TV.  I see a black screen with Apple logo.  Nothing else happens.  Remote functions as I see the white light respond.  Have rebooted 4 times but same thing occurs.  What should I try.
    Thanks.

    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Source list, and then click Restore.

  • What does it mean , when my iphone wont turn on and the apple symbol keeps flashing

    my iphone wont reboot or turn on and the apple symbol just keeps poping up

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable                     
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Angel Season 5 -- what does it mean when it says "repackage"?

    For some reason there are two versions of Angel Season 5 listed and only one of them is on sale.  The one that is on sale says "repackage" in the product title and I was wondering if that meant that it was used, or if maybe it just meant different packaging.  So, what does it mean when it says "repackage"?
    This is the page I was looking at http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8014631&productCategoryId=cat02564&type=product&id=1568268
    Thanks!
    Heather

    Hey Heather -
    The only difference in those two skus is the actual packaging.  One is a thicker package (older one) and one is a thinner packaging (newer one).  You should be able to receive the sale price on either. 
    I hope this helps!

    It means you have a hardware problem. That could be the screen itself or the graphics system, GPU.

  • HT201359 What does it mean when a purchase is billed to "store credit"? Is it one of those iTunes gift vouchers? Only reason I ask is because I downloaded Ken Follit's FREE book from the 12 days of Christmas app and seem to have been charged 10.99 for it!

    Thank you so much for the link. Am persevering thru it, will get there eventually, as I had already tried to press the Report a Problem link on the invoice, but it won' t connect to iTunes store on my iPad, it keeps saying can't connect. Infuriating. But thank you, you found me a link I would have taken ages to find.

  • What does it mean when the screen shows only the time and the play button

    what does it mean when i turn on my i-pod and it has a white screen and all it displays is the time and the play button cant get to the main screen to play music

    Is the hold switch in the on position?  Try resetting the iPod. To do this, press and hold both the Select/Center and menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.  The iPod may have simply locked up.
