When i load a page i get "server not found", when i click retry it loads properly, what can i do to have firefox load page first time
When i load a page it often tells me "server not found". When i click on retry most of the time it works. How do i fix it so that it works the first time.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== a couple months ago
You either have an extension that causes that issue or some security software (firewall) is causing a delay.
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
Also make sure that Firefox gets full unrestricted access to the internet.

I recently responded to a prompt to upgrade Mozilla Firefox and started seeing visual bee in background and got lookup for browser safeguard.com.com failed. Can't get into Firefox. My version is 3.6.12. Help requested. Thanks Keith
It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) 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.

Frequently get 'Server not found', have tried all articles solution, what now?
Frequently get 'server not found' when accessing web sites, no particular websites just randomly all sites, clicking 'try again' always resolves. I am thouroughly sick and tired of this error and no working soloutions! Have tried 'about:config' settings; pipelining, script_run_time, ipv6. Have tried reinstall of Firefox and update of firefox. Have allowed firefox in my firewall which is 'Comodo' and have deleted entry and re-allowed it again. Have tried firefox proxy settings on all choices of settings. These things do not fix the problem. I cannot find anymore information or solutions to try, I have searched everywhere and everything and tried all the things Ive found as mentioned above. What is the problem? Can it be resolved? How can it be fixed?

How to fix "server not found"
Does this happen on all websites? If so then you may have to update the permissions in your firewall application to allow the new Firefox.

Why do certain of my Firefox windows start getting "Server not found"?
Several times a day, one or more of my many Firefox windows gets into a state where it gets "Server not found" whenever I try to browse to a new URL. Internet Explorer is not affected.
I usually run Firefox with ~4 windows and more than a hundred tabs. The problem sometimes affects only one of those windows. Sometimes I can solve it by closing and then reopening the window. Sometimes I can solve it by closing and then reopening Firefox. Sometimes I can solve it by rebooting.
It's hard to say when exactly this started. The computer is only two weeks old.
I have experimented with the solutions discussed here (played with my firewall, verified that I am not using a proxy server, network.dns.disableIPv6, network.dns.disablePrefetch): http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firefox%20cannot%20load%20websites%20but%20other%20programs%20can

Getting "server not found" errors randomly. If I reload the page comes up fine. Why?
I'm on a Mac running 10.6.5 and using Firefox 3.6.13. All of the sudden pages I visit all the time are coming up with "server not found" errors, but when I refresh the page comes up fine. Sometimes the page loads, but in html code and all jumbled.
How do I fix this? Very annoying. I've been using Firefox for years and it's never done this. Nothing's changed with my connection or settings.You detailed the situation very well dezi.
Amazing that so many people have this problem yet NONE of these so called "AWESOME" developers deem it important enough to address the issue.
I still have the exact same lame problem as you with 3.6.whatever it is now.
There are quite a few of these random"Server not found" threads scattered around here,all with a mounting number of "people have this problem"
On my old MacBook Pro, which runs 3.5.16, I have no such issue.
After 6 weeks of exhaustive research the only thing I have found is a fix aimed at PC users in which you alter the about:config settings (not that it would work for us or that if it is even possible) that affect something called DNS fetching. I am not a computer person so all the jargon about do this-do that goes over my head. However, to get this solved I will learn what it takes.
I hope we get some real answers soon

When trying to open firefox I always get "server not found".
After downloading Firefox I cannot get it to connect to the internet. I always get the message "server not found." I have tried all the "fixes" suggested online but without any luck. This is a new download and I have not used Firefox before now.

Desktops get "Server Not Found" errors with WRT160N
I'm sharing my WRT160N with 2 laptops and 3 desktops. My laptops connect to the internet ok... drops now and then tho... but my desktops frequently get a "Server Not Found" error. After repeated "try again" clicks, it eventually connects again. Any ideas??
Try this ;
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...Leave Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
Under the Setup Tab...reduce the MTU value to 1300 and save settings.
Also reduce the card speed of the dekstop... (assuming it is window XP)..Click on the Start button >>> Control Panel >> Network Connections >> Right click on the ""Local Area Connection"" icon and select properties-Here click on the "Configure" button- Click on the "Advanced" tab- In the "Property" box highlight Link speed and duplex/Connection type/Network or Media type- And in the "Value" box select 10 Mbps half duplex/ 10 base T/10 base half mode and click on OK.. Now restart the computer. -
So for example I clicked on the Firefox help icon and it said 'server not found' I shut it down clicked on it again and it opened. This happens all the time with various different sites and pages within those sites

What do you mean ''shut it down'' ? Did you close Firefox, or that window.
Load the page. After, hold down the '''Shift''' key and press '''Reload.'''

In Firefox, I keep getting "Server not found" error - CONSTANTLY!
Two days ago I started getting the "server not found" error, off and on, daily. It is happening on both my desktop iMac 10.7, and my Windows 7 laptop. I keep having to hit the "Try Again" butting, and sometimes, several times, before a web site will finally launch. The only two extensions I have on both, are the Adblock Plus and the Last Tab Close Button, both of which, have been installed on said computers for months and months and months.
I went in and changed a setting to the "auto detect proxy setting", hoping that would work, and it did not.
I have Firefox version 21 on both computers, and it seems the problem started shortly after this latest Firefox update, and at the SAME TIME on both computers.
I do not have virus protection on my iMac, nor on my Windows 7 laptop, at the moment, but I have run online software to check for anything, and no issues, so I believe, it is not that which is the issue.
The firewalls on both computers are working fine and no issues there either, I have not changed any firewall settings, on either computer. It couldn't be the firewall, in my opinion, because this annoying error message started happening on BOTH of my computers, at the same time; I work on my iMac in the morning, then switch to my laptop in the afternoon, and same issue continues on both, and started at the same time, on both.
Is there something broken in Firefox from this last update of the browser?
Does anyone have any suggestions as to why both computers are having this issue, at the same time?
I have not tried using I.E. yet on my laptop, I rarely have ever needed to use that browser, and I hate it, so I don't use it.
Any help or suggestions, would be appreciated.I followed those steps, but clearly some steps are missing. How do you "enable each extension one at a time"? The only choices I see in Safe Mode are "disable" and "remove."
And why is it that every other update to Firefox breaks Firefox? I've had to install add-ons just to be able to use it in Windows 8 with a touchpad.
Now that I think of it, it doesn't even matter any more. After years of Firefox loyalty (even after Firefox users have dropped to 28%), I'm off to download Google Chrome (up to 52%). I'll miss Firefox, but not the on-again, off-again performance. -

Server not found when switching from 4g to wifi and vice versa.
I've had this issue for a while across multiple phones and multiple versions of Firefox for Android, and it does not happen with any other browser (which is upsetting). Whenever I am surfing the web and have multiple tabs open, and I switch from 4g to wifi or vice versa, I always get a "Server not found" error on both existing tabs and new tabs. This is an annoying issue that I am surprised to see hasn't been fixed. The only way I've been able to fix it is to quit and relaunch the app. I have tried removing plug-ins and reinstalling, but it has not helped.
Anything I could do to alleviate the issue?

Hi scruffy90:
You wrote "LG G2 and Samsung Galaxy Note 3. Both on Android 4.4.2 Firefox for Android Ver. 35.0.1 "
I just tried switching between HSPA+ aka 3G and WiFi on a Galaxy S5 running Android 5 and have had no issues but I think this may have been an issue in the past (I did a search for a bug in bugzilla.mozilla.org but couldn't find anything).
Are there any other details you could provide that could help us debug?
e.g.
# Are you using a proxy?
# Who is your WiFi provider?
# Have you tried other WiFi (e.g. the Wifi both at home and work)
Cheers!

Hello Roland,
No proxy on the phone or wi-fi network.
My ISP is Time Warner, but I supply my own router (Linksys e4200)
And this happens on every wi-fi network, at home and away from home. -
Server not found when trying to access our credit union.

It says to check the address for typos, check the network connection or make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the web.Hi sws23, and a warm welcome to the forums!
