on the drop down menu for firefox(in my bookmarks) I used to be able to customize firefox to change my themes. Now when I click on it, it only loads words, no pictures or thumb tabs to hover over or anything. When I click on the words, it does nothing. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Java. What is going on? What else can I do to fix this. And I have Windows Vista, just in case you need to know. Thanks Sharon

Using "Forget About This Site" will remove all data stored in Firefox from that domain like bookmarks, cookies, passwords, cache, history, and exceptions, so be cautious and if you have a password or other data from that domain that you do not want to lose then make sure to backup this data or make a note.

I've downloaded Lightroom 5.6 today but it won't completely load before windows pops up and says that it has encountered a problem and is shutting the application down. What is my next step....thanks?

If you use extensions like Adblock Plus or NoScript or Flashblock that can block content then make sure that such extensions aren't blocking content. 
You can see the installed Firefox extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions".
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

Firefox keeps prompting an update, but can't complete it. It gets stuck on "Connecting to the Server" and runs for hours until I stop it. Help!

I have a Mac OS X ver. 10.5.8 and I've used Firefox on it since I got it 3 years (?) ago. The most recent update for both Firefox and Thunderbird keeps prompting me, but when I say "yes" to update, a bar appears with lines moving through it and it says, "Connecting to the update Server" but it never gets any farther. I've left it for hours at a time and it won't actually update either program.

If you have problems with updating then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded

Updated Firefox but add-ons download page won't see my Firefox browser even with it set as default.

I have updated my Firefox browser to current. When attempting to download an add-on, I get the popup screen requesting for me to download Firefox browser. I have redownloaded it 4 times. Still no luck. Firefox is set as default. Add-ons still give me this message: "To install ... and thousands of other Firefox add-ons, get Firefox, a free and open web browser from Mozilla. To learn more about Firefox and how it can make your internet experience better, click the button below."

Every time Firefox opened
== Downloaded Firefox 3.6 ==

Check your user-agent: Help > About Mozilla Firefox.
Your original user-agent when you posted shows no browser name/version number:
''Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 NET_mmhpset''
My user-agent (pretty vanilla, no toolbar add-ons, etc.):

See the difference? Yours does not show '''''Firefox/3.6.3''''' or the Build ID. I have seen that '''NET_mmhpset''' on other users who have posted here, but I do not know what it is.
If you follow the instructions and it keeps changing back, then you have something installed that keeps changing the user-agent.
Just to be sure:
-You did right-click on the item below the filter area in about:config and choose Reset?
-You did restart Firefox after making the change?
'''Safe Mode'''
You may need to use '''[[Safe Mode]]''' (click on "Safe Mode" and read) to localize the problem. Firefox Safe Mode is a diagnostic mode that disables Extensions and some other features of Firefox. If you are using a theme, switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes '''before''' starting Safe Mode. When entering Safe Mode, do not check any items on the entry window, just click "Continue in Safe Mode". Test to see if the problem you are experiencing is corrected.
See:
'''[[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]'''
'''[[Troubleshooting plugins]]'''
'''[[Basic Troubleshooting]]'''
If the problem does not occur in Safe-mode then disable all of your Extensions and Plug-ins and then try to find which is causing it by enabling '''one at a time''' until the problem reappears. '''You MUST close and restart Firefox after EACH change''' via File > Restart Firefox (on Mac: Firefox > Quit). You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window.

Mozilla Firefox comes with Google Start Page, I want old one, can I get it again?

I updated Mozilla to the latest version. However, when I open a second tab I get a Mozilla Firefox Start Page with a Google Search page, instead of the old page which showed the last pages I browsed. Can I get the old page back and how.

hello Nick_Burman, you can either install the [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/ searchreset addon] to get rid of the problem or manually reset the page that opens on each new tab.
enter '''about:config''' into the firefox location bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up), search for the preference named '''browser.newtab.url''' and double-click & change its value to '''about:newtab'''.

Youtube videos won't completely load / play in safari - (OK in firefox tho)

So whenever I try to play a youtube video, it'll partially buffer, and only about the first quarter to half of the video will play.
This was the case in Safari 2.whatever and Tiger, and is still the case with Safari 3 and Leopard.
Here's the weird part: everything works just fine in Firefox.
Help! I actually like Safari more, and it's annoying to have to switch browsers.

Hi
The "repair permissions" is an important step after installing Flash. Just wanted to make sure you had done so.
In your Finder: Go to Your User Account>Library>Preferences>Macromedia>Flash Player>#Shared Objects>etc. In the last folder you'll see YouTube entries at the bottom of the list. Delete them, then restart the computer/Safari.
Once in Safari, empty cache again. Plus, also remove the YouTube cookies. Then try YouTube again.

SWF won't completely load when embedded

First Time posting,
I've seen a few topics like this but they were posted years
ago and I doubt I'd get any further input from them. At my company
we create flash recordings of our clients web recordings using
Camtasia. When Camtasia publishes the files there is an .xml a .swf
of the recording itself, a .html file, and a control button .swf.
If I open up the html file it will load in Internet Explorer fine
with the control buttons in the video as well. (Fast Forward,
Rewind, etc.)
The problem my client has on all the machines at his school
and even at his house is when he tries to open the .html file the
loading bar acts like it's opening something but only gets half way
and the flash recording never comes up. He has the newest version
of flash and can open the .swf directly in IE just fine.
That is the code from the html file. I figured it was
something to do with his active X security but changing a couple
things didn't seem to have any effect... any suggestions?

no ideas huh?

I currently have Firefox 21.0. The 'Download Video' does not appear when I play videos. Help !

Please help.

If you are using Internet Download Manager, make sure that you are using latest version of IDM?

Firefox web surf slow. Pages take minutes to load,and sometimes they dont load at all. I have win xp sp3. Thanks

Hello. I have windows xp sp3,and latest firefox, i think 26. And sometimes, not all the time,but most of it,my web browsing is so slow, i mean google search,web pages load,etc. Like minutes before it loads,and when finally does,sometimes i see only text ,in web pages,not images.
I have speed,as i can download torrents with 7 Mb/sec. Just web surfing is slow,painfully slow.
My question is,if you bear with me, is this a browser problem or a windows one ??
(i dont exclude even the possibility for the nice guys at microProose to inject a thing in windoze to make it slow,so we upgrade,in the light of recent discoveries:) .
thanks in advance.

hi i running win7 and yes site is loading slow. i dont have proble using chrome! i like firefox but after number of update it getting horrible slow and slower..!!!!

How can i browse using webbrowser to many pages one by one and waiting for each page to be completed loaded ?

I have this method:
string filename = "";
private void GetHtmls()
for (int i = 0; i < numberofforums; i++)
uri = sourceUrlId + forumsIds[i] + sourceUrlNumber + 1;
filename = uri.Substring(49);
webBrowser1.Navigate(uri);
And in the document completed event:
string forums;
private void webBrowser1_DocumentCompleted(object sender, WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEventArgs e)
if (e.Url.ToString() == uri)
if (retrivedForumsInfo == true)
targetHtmls = (combinedHtmlsDir + "\\"+ filename + ".txt");
htmlloaded = true;
StreamWriter write = File.CreateText(targetHtmls);
write.Write(webBrowser1.DocumentText);
write.Close();
The problems are:
1. When it's getting to the completed event already it's saving the text file with the id number of the second one in the ID's list.
If in the method GetHtmls i used a breakpoint and see that forumsIds is 93 the first one when it's getting to the completed event i see that the id there is already the second one like the loop continue or something.
And if i will wait with the break point and click continue after some seconds the id will be the fourth or fifth depend on how long i'm waiting before click continue.
2. When it's getting to the completed event after saving the text file it's not coming back to the GetHtmls method and not continue the loop and not navigating to the next page.
I need to do it this logic:
Make for loop navigate to the first page now wait somehow when it finished to save the text file of the first page in the completed event only then jump back to the GetHtmls method and continue the loop navigate to the second page and again wait/hold untill
saving the text file of the seocnd page in the completed event. And so on all the loop in the GetHtmls.

I tried it this way now and it's working untill the variable count is 5 then it stop and never continue i can't figure out why it stop and why when it's getting to 5(It's doing the 5 time but then stop and not continue).
In the top of the form i did:
private int counter = 1;
private int countpages = 1;
private int forumId = 0;
private string uri;
private bool htmlloaded = false;
Then in the GetHtmls method:
string filename = "";
private void GetHtmls()
uri = sourceUrlId + forumsIds[0] + sourceUrlNumber + 1;
filename = uri.Substring(49);
webBrowser1.Navigate(uri);
Then in the document completed event:
private void webBrowser1_DocumentCompleted(object sender, WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEventArgs e)
if (e.Url.ToString() == uri)
if (retrivedForumsInfo == true)
targetHtmls = (combinedHtmlsDir + "\\" + filename + ".txt");
StreamWriter write = File.CreateText(targetHtmls);
write.Write(webBrowser1.DocumentText);
write.Close();
htmlloaded = true;
timer1.Enabled = true;
Then in timer1 tick event:
private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
if (htmlloaded == true)
uri = sourceUrlId + forumsIds[counter] + sourceUrlNumber + 1;
filename = uri.Substring(49);
webBrowser1.Navigate(uri);
htmlloaded = false;
timer1.Enabled = false;
counter++;
countpages++;
I tried to use try and catch and a break point i couldn't find why it stop and what make it stop and what stopped ? Maybe the timer1 never continue ? But if the timer not continue why it stop when counter is 5 ?
The number of id's in the List<int> forumsIds is 547 and it's equal to the number of forums 547.
I still can't figure out why it stop on counter 5 and what make it stop.

Brand new Mac suddenly does not load videos or plays them while buffering every 30 seconds. Also, pages do not completely load with header, sidebar, photos, etc. loading more slowly. What's up with this??

My new Mac has worked beautifully until recently when it stopped loading videos from emails, websites, Amazon, etc. Those that do load are constantly buffering and are impossible to watch. Since I did not alter any settings or download any programs, can anyone determine what may be causing this sudden malfunction? I have Comcast high speed Internet. Thank you for any help you can provide.

I have the same problem and it has just started in the last day or so...
Got the phone late July and then in the last day, everytime I plug into PC or take a photo, I get the same "Disk Error / Retry message"
What is interesting is that I always had the Photo Storage location as the Memory Card (detachable). Seems odd that sometime in the last month or so the phone decided to change my setting to the Mass Memory. Might have been an firmware update that I have done in the past but not sure.
Changing the Photo Storage Location back to the Memory Card has stopped the error coming up everytime a Photo wastaken, but the message continues when I plug in the phone to the PC.
Phone was just updated to latest firmware this morning and that has not helped, although during the back-up process I could not save some files from the Mass Memory.
I wonder if Optus will shout a new phone because their technicians are useless with past experiences and to be honest the N97 really promises so much but offers very little compared to all of my last Nokia's.

I updated the Reader on my Mac OS 10.8.5, and now my .pdfs won't open. I only get a little popup in Chinese.

Please help.
I was prompted to update Adobe Reader when trying to open an interactive document on a government site.
Since updating it, I cannot seem to access any .pdfs online.
Very frustrating.

There were several similar topics recently, where a Japanese message pops up when trying to view online PDFs.
But yours is Chinese; can you post a screenshot of that message: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1070933

Why does Firefox re-jump to a page when it is finished loading or when automatically refreshing?

If I change tabs or windows within Firefox or switch from Firefox to another open programme running, and the browser page has not completely loaded (or sometimes refreshes due to automatic updating) what I see on the monitor is not the tab or window highlighted in the tab bar (or for that matter programme highlighted in the taskbar). Firefox just jumps back on its own accord and leaves me with often with a view that is conglomeration of the reloading page and the other programm I am working on.

Another user posted a screenshot of something like that earlier this afternoon, and I'm not sure what is causing that to happen. I suspect if may be caused by an extension that was recently updated, but no ideas about which one it may be. I just got back to my computer after be gone for the last five hours, so I don't if there has been any additional information in the other thread or not. This is about all I can figure to do right now until we have more information related to this new issue.
Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?

BB Torch keeps trying to reboot and won't complete

Anyone had this experience and found a solution??
I clicked a link from Drop Box to install application and it immediately shut off my BB Torch and it has been trying to reboot ever since but won't complete reboot. It gets to about 70% on the progress bar and shuts off again repeatedly. Tried hard and soft reboot and it didn't help.

When you get a chance, do a battery pull. When the red light goes away on the front of the phone, hold down the
back button the entire time while the phone is booting up. When the boot is complete, the phone will enter safe

Remove the app and do another battery pull.
if you can't get past that, you will have to reload the device software on the phone.
