Why won't Firefox load videos/sites properly...

When I go to Youtube, the video will load but will freeze after a few seconds. Some sites (like Tumblr, for example) don't load properly as well.. Help?

  • Why won't firefox load websites after reseting to default state

    I've reset mozilla through the tools troubleshooting and reset fire fix to its default state. Now the webpages such as facebook, hotmail won't load or they won't load properly.
    A window with this connection is untrusted appears. Even when I validate a security exception it won't load and it won't let me have an option of validating sometimes. Technical details says invalid security certificate. No issuer chain provided. Error code unknown issuer.

    unfortunately the fiddler2 issuer in certificates might be a sign of unwanted software present on your pc that is intercepting secure network traffic. please go into the system control panel and uninstall programs like BrowserSafeguard, BrowserSafe, SafeGuard or other software that sounds suspicious and didn't get installed by you intentionally.
    <br><sub>reference: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/982532#answer-520145</sub>
    afterwards, run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].

  • Why won't Firefox load some pages correctly?

    On my everydayhealth.com site where I keep my fitness journal, suddenly the graphics are gone and all I have is a page with text and numbers on it. After it switches to this text page, at the very top it will say "Location TemplateTop not found in page 40811."
    On another site I shop all the time, sephora.com, when I would click on a makeup area I want to go it would give me an oops page and tell me I have ventured into some unknown beauty territory.
    I thought NoScript was causing this so I disabled it. Since doing that my Sephora site seems to be working. And initially my diet journal seemed to come back too. But then the journal page again flipped to this text and numbers page with that message at the top. Sephora seems to still be working.

    More specifically, after logging in, go to the support forum at (https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions), then you should see the "My Contributions" link.
    Despite their similar names, Java and JavaScript are two completely separate things. Java is used for Java applets, and JavaScript is used for interactivity in pages. NoScript prevents JavaScript (and Java) code from executing in pages unless its explicitly allowed.
    JavaScript in particular is a technology that many web developers rely on, and expect browsers to have enabled. While developers should properly handle the use case where someone has JavaScript disabled, many don't, either because they don't want to spend a bunch of time coding for what probably amounts to 0.1% of their users (most of whom will allow JavaScript on pages they trust), they simply forgot to handle it, or their site would be impossible without it.
    I'm not familiar enough with NoScript to walk you through it, but what you need to do is add exceptions for the sites that aren't working properly. Try their [http://noscript.net/faq FAQ ]or [http://forums.informaction.com/viewforum.php?f=3 forum].
    Again, this problem almost definitely has nothing to do with Firefox itself--you should get in touch with the owners of the sites in question, or with the NoScript folks.

  • Why won't Firefox load my home page?

    Firrfox will not load my home page. Safari and chrome both load it fine.My homepage is www.yahoo.com.  It will allow me to log in to my yahoo.mail account but not home page?

    It is nothing systemic with Mavericks. I have a Yahoo home page and it works perfectly with FireFox.
    It's possible that you have some FF add-ons that were not upgraded to a newer version when Mavericks was released--that is quite common. It is the job of the add-on developers to keep up with the major OS developments, not the other way around.
    Open FF and do Tools > Add-ons. See if any extensions, appearance add-ons, or plug-ins show that an update is available.
    Another thing that can cause grief are the various anti-virus and "I'll Clean Your Mac" programs being foisted upon Mac users. They can play havoc with browsers. Have you installed any? I hope not!
    If these do not help, I sugest you try FireFox support:

  • Why won't Firefox open an site in a new tab when clicked on in Google?

    When I was in Google and would click on a site to open, it would open in the tab I was on rather than opening in a new tab. It used to do so.
    So if I go to the site and it's not the one that answers my question, rather than clicking on the back button, I have to go back and click on my Google Bookmark.
    It's annoying because everytime you open Google, you get a different set of sites to access.
    Today, the word I was Googling was kfeeders.

    Thanks but perhaps I didn't explain the problem well.
    I was on the Google page, and put in the item I was searching for, clicked search and got a page or many pages of potential sites that would fit my query. But if I clicked on one of the sites, I couldn't click back to the Google page, the back arrow was gray. It doesn't happen all the time, only occasionally. Guess it's just a problem with some sites.

  • Why won't Firefox 33 shut down properly?

    I must have just got an update to V33 because I was not seeing this problem before today. I have not myself been messing with the configuration in the last couple of weeks. (Not sure when the last time I actually closed Firefox successfully, but it was definitely within the last 3 days.) Looking at Submitted Crash Reports, I see just one on 10/3 and then 53 of them spanning the interval from 7PM to 8PM this evening, during which I had had to kill it from the Task Manager 3 times because it was just hanging when it was supposed to be shutting down. Here is a small sample:

    Firefox seems to be working normally when I restart it.
    I really do not want to have to do a reset to fix this. However, if I were to have to, would Sync put things back?
    Is reverting to V32 an option? If so, how?
    I'd appreciate any help.

    Uhh. Never mind. After restarting Windows, it started shutting down normally again.

  • Why won't Firefox automatically show new Hotmail emails or easilly down load attachments when it was working a week ago?

    Why won't Firefox automatically show new Hotmail emails or easily down load attachments when it was working a week ago?

    Hotmail has been having a few hiccups lately I'm afraid.
    If you don't see any emails when you log in, or nothing appears after some time, click in the middle of the grey bar on the left which has the word "'''Inbox'''" in it. This usually causes them to magically appear for some strange reason.
    I've read on on a few blogs that Microsoft is working on the problem, but don't hold your breath.<br><br>
    If this suggestion resolves the problem for you, please click the '''Solved it''' button next to this post after you log in into the forum. This will help others searching for a solution to the same problem.
    Thanks.

  • Why won't firefox search?

    Why won't firefox search when I type anything into the search bar? It lists everything I've typed in before but when you click search it just sits there doing nothing. If I use the search bar in the top right corner it searches just fine, but nothing from the central search line.
    Also what is the line below this for? if I mouse over it I get a pointy finger, but it is blank and remains blank.

    If you can't clear that saved form and search history then there may be nothing to clear.
    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).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

    In list view: Why don't searches include results from the Collections field? Why won't the Collections column sort properly?

    I create a new index on column2, (INDEX_N3)
    and change SQL to
    select 1 from table T1 where
    T1.COLUMN_002 = '848K 36892'
    This time INDEX_N3 will be used.
    but change SQL to
    select 1 from table T1 where
    T1.COLUMN_002 = '848K 36892'
    and T1.COLUMN_004 = '1000'
    The explain plan will show full scan.
    Why？

  • Why won't Firefox won't download?

    Why won't Firefox download? It completed the set up stage then stops.

    If downloads hang at the last minute (just before reaching 100%), the cause might be antivirus software which tries to scan the file and during that process hangs the Firefox instance.
    In order to fix the problem, try disabling the scanning as follows:
    # In the [[Location bar autocomplete|Location bar]], type '''about:config''' and press '''Enter'''. The about:config "''This might void your warranty!''" warning page may appear.
    # Click '''I'll be careful, I promise!''', to continue to the about:config page. A list of settings should appear
    # Filter the list by typing in the search bar at the top. Type in ''scanWhenDone''. '''You should now find the "browser.download.scanWhenDone" preference'''.
    #Double-click on that preference to set the value to ''false''.
    #Next, try to download something and see if it still hangs.
    Please reply and tell us whether this helped you!
