I assume this page worked normally in Firefox 22?
Firefox 23 introduced a new security feature. If this is an HTTPS page, insecure content may be blocked. Look for a shield icon on the address bar to the left of the URL. This article has more details about this feature: [[How does content that isn't secure affect my safety?]]
If it's not a secure page or there's no shield, here is a more general suggestion.
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

Firefox had been working just fine. Then a few days ago, I noticed the Firefox desktop icon would not open into the program. I uninstalled the program and re-installed it and yesterday it was working but now again the icon, or clicking on other icons driven by firefox or clicking on firefox in the program menu does nothing. Just nothing happens. My desktop here runs on Windows 7. Safari works OK. Thank you.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
You can use one of these to start Firefox in <u>Safe mode</u>:

*On Mac, hold down the Options key while starting Firefox

A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) 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 and the plugin-container 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.

When I click "Options", the popup gives me a blank screen for last 4 or 5 updates.
Since 4 or 5 updates ago, I have been unable to access the options on Firefox. It gives me a blank popup. It is odd seeing just a blank screen and unable to get to anything. All the other pulldown menus work. The addons option works, but I just can't get into my general options. I was desperate enough to try Seamonkey, but I really want Firefox (and yes, Seamonkey's works).
hello, this problem is usually caused by the ghostery addon - you could try to disable it...
https://getsatisfaction.com/ghostery/topics/problem-with-firefox-32-firefox-option-is-not-displayed-when-ghostery-is-active-in-firefox-32
another workaround would be to switch on the new firefox preferences interface which will place the preferences menu within a tab:
enter '''about:config''' into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''browser.preferences.inContent'''. double-click it and change its value to '''true'''. -

Did you install anything new? there was an update to Safari last week.
Launch Safari in safe mode to disable plugins.
You may need to look into booting your Mac with Command-R to repair your disk or even reinstall Lion.
The best place would be Lion and Safari forums, and just to let you know this is not the forum for MacBooks or MacBook Pro.

I have the latest Firefix update, and I am using Windows 7 Home Premium. It's annoying, specifically for games because I have to make sure the cursor is to the right (by a certain amount) of the item I wish to click. This issue is only in Firefox, I have tried in Internet Explorer *shudder* and there is no problem, I do not have any web browsers currently installed.

I have no more info than is in the question.
Sounds like a feature of the Google Toolbar.
The Google Toolbar '''7.1.20110512W''' version works in Firefox 5.0 by using the Compatibility Reporter extension, I tried it myself due to the large number of postings about GTB problems. <br />

I downloaded Firefox to my PC and olny get a blank screen when I click on the Icon, Why?
I only had Internet Explorer on this new( to me) PC and wanted to download FireFox. I downloaded it to my PC and when I click on the Firefox Icon, all I get is a blank screen with a small menu bar at the top left. I DO NOT get the icons that show on the sample input screen at the top right. All I get is the History icon which does nothing when I press it. I deleted the Firefox app from my PC and downloaded it a second time and it does the same thing. My son gave me this used PC, but it did NOT have firefox on it. What do I do now?

I recently downloaded the latest version (15.0.1) of Firefox for my Mac. When i click on the Firefox icon, i get a display "Important Torbutton Information". It states "Torbutton is now always enabled. Click on the Torbutton for more information". I click on OK. I then get a display that states "THE PROXY SERVER IS REFUSING CONNECTIONS". I believe that i have two problems. 1. How do i fix the Proxy Server.
(2) How do i access Torbutton?

I run Windows 7. I downloaded Firefox 6.0 for Windows which resulted in the following which I cannot fix:
"I had Firefix, however I downloaded the newest Firefox along with all plugins. Now when I click in the desktop icon firefox refuses to open my default webpage. Why?....How do I fix this"
I can go to internet explorer or AOL and it opens right up to my homepage but not when I click on Firefox.That problem can be caused by the Yahoo! Toolbar that extents too much downwards and covers the top part of the browser window and thus makes links in that part of the screen not clickable.

When I click on the - to minimize fire fox, it does not close the window but the firefox icon disappears from the task bar; it is still open but gone from the task bar, if I click on any other icon it opens a new Firefox window, I end up with several windows open but none on the task bar.Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

Firefox does not open when i click on the icon or menu path
when i click on the desktop icon or go through the menu path to open firefox, the computer will run it but nothing appears. apparently, firefox is still running in the background but i cant get to it. so whenever i try to edit another program that involves firefox, i have to go to the task manager to manually shut it down.
i tried running it in safemode but it does the same thing. furthermore, i deleted the whole program and reinstalled it hoping that that might fix the problem. however that did not work, i have searched all the offered support and have come up dry.
i am running the current firefox version and i am using a windows 7 professional operating systemHi,
It could be that a security software installed in the system is blocking the new updated Firefox executable. You may have to go into the settings of the security software to re-trust Firefox.
Please also check if you are able to start Firefox by browsing to the Firefox installation folder ('''Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\''' or '''Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\''' ) and clicking '''firefox'''.
