Why do certain webpages via google searches (YouTube, google images etc) not load when clicked but load upon page refresh?

I had problems with my Firefox browser being too slow so recently reset the browser (preserved my bookmarks but lost all my plugins). Now I find that when I am searching for something in google when clicking on certain links the window goes blank/white and shows a long url across the top (showing the link was pressed from a google search) and only if I refresh the page will the link load up.
Not sure why this is the case and could use some advice.
Thank you in advance.

  • Why now, since Firefox upgraded to ver23.0.1, can I not load several pages including facebook unless I use I.E Tab ext?

    Between last night and tonight, suddenly I can't load any pages unless I flip back and forth between I.E Tabs. Only difference: Firefox did a bloody update. Why is it that nowadays when a program updates, it always ends up being glitchy or fails entirely. Aren't updates supposed to IMPROVE the program, not break what was already working?
    This problem happens on Facebook, twitter, Goodreads, Google, this page... everything. What is the use of having a browser that doesn't work. Come on Mozilla. Please let me roll back to 22. At least that worked. Sorry for the grump here, but I've truly had enough of programs self-"updating" into a version that is crap. With all that programmers have learnt over years of computing, this should not happen any more. If you're going to put out an "update", at least make sure it works fully first. We're not your lab rats for testing.
    I've already restarted twice, and once more in safe mode, so please no one give me all the basic advice. Just someone tell the blokes at Mozilla that their update is broken, and they need to patch it. Meanwhile, I'll just run my business loading pages twice in two different browser tabs... or, after more than six years and twenty different version numbers, I might just drop Firefox altogether.
    And you know what, I can't even add my Troubleshooting info from the button below. Guess why? That's broken too.

    Have you tried windows safe mode? It could be your antivirus rules.

  • Google Image Thumbnails not Loading

    As in the title, Google image thumbnails are appearing as blank space on my macbook pro. Please help.

    HI,
    From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences then select the Appearance tab. Make sure: *Display images when the page opens* is selected.
    If that box was already checked, from the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 7 buttons and click Reset. Relaunch Safari. If Google thumbnails are still not loading ..
    Go to the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab. Quit Safari. Now go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.safari.plist to the Desktop.
    Relaunch Safari and see if that makes a difference. If not, move the .plist file back to the Preferences folder. If Safari functions as it should, move that .plist file to the Trash.
    And repair permissions.
    Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

  • Why do certain webpages load on my Macbook, but others won't?

    I have a Macbook Pro (mid-2012) that's running on Mountain Lion (10.8.2). Recently, I have had trouble connecting to certain websites.
    I can connect quickly and easily to Outlook, Google, Tumblr
    Sites such as Facebook, YouTube and Netflix will not load at all
    - This is on any of my browsers, Safari, Chrome and Firefox.
    - On Chrome I get the frowny paper that says "No data received" after about five minutes of loading
    I also cannot connect to apps just as the App Store, however, my Spotify is connected and working just fine (not Unlimited)
    My room mates both have Microsoft/Windows computers, and have had absolutely no problem connecting to any and all websites.
    I have tried rebooting my computer, uninstalling and reinstalling Chrome/Safari/Firefox, messing with my Firewall and clearing caches and cookies, manually entering my IPv4 address, dis- and re-connecting to my wifi (also forgetting and rediscovering saved networks), restarting my router, and verifying and "fixing" disk permissions and whatnot. I feel like I'm running out of options, because I haven't and won't purchase Applecare, and I don't have the funds ready to just take the computer to Best Buy.
    What have I not tried?

    Fixed it! I guess that I had installed avast! a few days ago and completely forgotten about it. That seems to be what the problem was, because I uninstalled it and it's working fine now. Thank you though, you rang the bell that reminded me! (:

  • Images do not load in foxfire, but load ok in IE. such as the zoom bar in google maps

    I'm using Firefox 9. when I goto sites such as amazon, the images do not load. I can right click on the image box and select view image and the image will be displayed in a new page. An other example is google maps. The zoom bar on the left does not display. If I move the cursor over where the zoom bar is suppose to be the cursor will change to the hand and I can left click to work the zoom. If I bring up Internet Explorer all images, etc work ok.

    You can use these steps to check if images are blocked:
    *Open the web page that has the images missing in a browser tab.
    *Click the website favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
    *Click the "More Information" button to open the "Page Info" window with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
    *Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
    *Select the first image link and scroll down through the list with the Down arrow key.
    *If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

    Hello,
    Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
    You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    Then perform these steps:
    *Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
    *In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
    *In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
    *Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
    Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
    * [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
    * [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • YouTube Video's will not load, is there a way to fix this?

    I have flash installed and all YouTube video's will not load. In their place there is a black box when I right click on this box it says "movie not loaded..." and "about adobe flash player." All other flash related video's load fine it seems to be a problem only with YouTube. This problem persists into Google Chrome but not Internet Explorer.

    This has been reported many times over the past 24 hours and if the solution hasn't been posted yet, one short-term workaround is to change from a regular session to a secure session.
    Click in the URL and insert an s after http. In other words:

  • On my MacBook Pro when I am connected to the internet via an Ethernet cable, Facebook pictures do not load. They show up as white boxes with blue question marks.

    On my new MacBook Pro when I am connected to the internet via an Ethernet cable, Facebook pictures do not load. They show up as white boxes with blue question marks. This also happens on a website editor. But, when I am connected to the internet via Wifi, everything load properly. This is my work computer, so I have to be able to connect through the Ethernet cable to access everything. Please help me!

    I mostly use Safari. But I also tried it on Firefox, Mozilla, and Camino. Mac OS X. It's my work computer, so I've only tried it at the office. I have to be connected through the Ethernet cable to access my files and email on the server.

  • Why is Firefox not loading my pages at startup anymore?

    FF 12.0. Why now all of a sudden is FF not loading my pages at startup. It loads the "pinned" pages, but NONE of the other ones I had open. This is happening at every FF startup now. Really, this was the ONLY feature that was keeping me with FF. The performance has gone dramatically down, and the problems more frequent ever since 4 was released. I am getting to the end of my rope with this now. Any ideas?

    No previous session option, it is grayed out.
    I did try the file exit way to close, and it brought the tabs back up. Is that a change in 12? Not good, we don't always or even often get the chance to close down like that. It was never like that in the past. It did not matter if you hit the X, or ended the process in the task manager... the tabs ALWAYS came back up. It was a feature that nobody else had working in that matter at the time. Honestly, it is the only reason I have been using FF on a regular basis for the past couple of years. Now I have to worry about losing my tabs when it is not closed down "properly", or spend a hour looking through the history and trying to figure out what I had open.

  • Why does my browser not load web pages?

    I have been having trouble with my browser not loading web pages.  After clicking on a link or typing in a web page, the page will usually not load.  I have to reload the page a few times, then it will work fine.  I have this problem with all web pages.  As for pages like youtube, if I can get a video to start playing, it will stop loading at random times.  I can back up in the video and start playing again, sometimes this will lead to the video playing further, only to stop loading again.  Help please!

    Try streching it with the bottom left corner. Also try view zom in. You can also try safari preferences resetsafari.

    It sounds as if your account has been compromised. I would recommend logging into those accounts from your computer and their websites and changing your password.

  • Why will safari not load web pages with the prefix "fhp"?

    Why will safari not load web pages with the prefix "fhp"?

    Because it doesn't recognise them as valid addresses - just as the error message  says.
    Firefox is similar : Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (fhp) isn't associated with any program.
    Where are you seeing this problem ?.
