Firefox displays blank spaces where text should be (for example, by displaying the code), but other browsers

• Firefox displays my website poorly; other browsers work fine.

  I recently bought a new computer, and now my website (www.tree.org) shows italic! It is probably not the fault of the computer (ASUS 1215 B), because the problem appears only on Firefox. I've upgraded to the latest version (6.0), and it shows always in italics. In Google Chrome pages display correctly. However, my desktop computer, the same versions of Firefox, running is displayed correctly. I think my font file might be corrupted (Goudy Old Style), so I have not copied a known source of good font (from my other computer that is displayed properly) - no change. I tried to empty cache.

    All I can figure out is that there is something between the ASUS processing and Firefox that is causing this.  I have written also to ASUS, but this problem baffles me.  Any ideas?

• Firefox displays the weird texts

  I use Firefox 32.0.3 on my Windows 8 (. 1) PC. The problem I've always faced with Firefox on my Windows 8.1 machine is that Firefox displays the text incorrectly, see screenshots here: http://1drv.ms/1xCwgJ0.

  It happens more often in Favorites, menu, tabs bar and sometimes in the Web page. In fact, it can be any text element. What's wrong? ClearType is enabled.

  You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

  • Tools > Options > advanced > General > Browsing: "use hardware acceleration when available.

  You will need to close and restart Firefox after enabling/disabling this setting.

• Firefox 8.0.1 where import you bookmarks? Can't find the bookmark import or thr Organizer

  In Firefox 8.0.1, where is the import feature to import bookmarks from another browser or a return to the top of the bookmarks on a dvd. In addition, there doesn't seem to be a bookmark manager to organize or edit bookmarks.

  operating system is windows xp home edition 2002 service pack 3

  "Bookmarks > organize bookmarks ' has been renamed to"show all bookmarks"in Firefox 4 and later versions.

  You can find the entry menu import into the Manager of bookmarks (library)

  • Bookmarks > show all bookmarks > import and backup > import data from another browser

• After invoking the RSS "Subscribe to this page", then using the previous/next buttons, Firefox displays the raw XML code

  1) go to the URL http://bionsmalleyassoc.com/BSA_jsp/MU_test
  (2) select Bookmarks-> subscribe to this page
  3) press the previous button
  4) press the next button
  Note that him 'subscribe to this page' does not reappear. However, Firefox incorrectly displays the raw for the RSS XML, as if he forgot that the destination forward is an RSS feed.

  This same sequence in IE9 or Safari 5.1 works fine as expected. In addition, Firefox has the same problem in MAC OSX 10.6

  Works for me now, you probably recharge and bypass the cache (Ctrl + F5) to get a new copy of this page RSS.

• Problem installing Firefox 3.6.8 as error "no request for assistance" to open the file

  Used a netbook Asus Linux / Firefox version 2.0.0.0.11 for 3 years without problems. Now I can't use "Hotmail" on it, because it requires an update to the version as above.

  It appears to download but not to open it and I get the message "could not be opened because there is no such thing as the doe to request assistance associated with" I'm not sure where I should be downloading it too but chose home/user.

  I use very basic but verified the file 'open with' settings and there is no demand for a tar.bz2

  Any advice would be much appreciated

  If you can't update your graphics / video driver, try turning off hardware acceleration.

• Firefox does not connect to any Web site, but other browsers will.

  When I get something in the URL- google.com, localhost, http://127.0.0.1/ one bar the IP address, there is a fraction of a second flash, then the bar becomes empty and nothing has changed. It seems that Firefox is not even try to connect to the internet.

  Yesterday, everything was fine when I was running FF on Windows 7. After the upgrade to Windows Pro 8, Firefox has failed. I've updated for Windows 8.1, hoping for the best, but it's the same problem.

  I've walked by the firewall program, several times (the only race is the built-in Windows Firewall). Finally, I uninstalled Firefox, including all my settings, custom and reinstalled from scratch, twice. And even this version pure and clean Firefox does not connect to the internet.

  I am a computer web developer and would be happy to look at the log files or run a tool (Fiddler?) to see what happens at a low level, if I only knew where to look.

  john99, thanks for the links. I went through all (again), one by one. The last link kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic showed me what helped. I've renamed "firefox.exe" to "firefox1.exe" and was able to use firefox.

  It made me suspect the firewall or malicious software. I ran a Malwarebytes full scan, zero problems detected. I have pored on the entries of windows firewall, the "Windows Firewall with advanced security" view and also the simple control panel view. The only mention of Firefox is that I continue to add and remove to allow firefox through.

  Here I knew what was going on, but for now, I can at least use firefox. How frustrating!

• I can't connect to my yahoo email although Firefox, I get an error message saying Bad Request Snytax. I can connect with other browsers.

  I tried to connect to my email yahoo for two days without success. I get the same error msg 'Bad request syntax.' I can connect in other browsers. Clear my cache and reset Firefox did not help. Know not what else to do.

  This can be caused by corrupted cookies.

  Clear the cache and cookies only from Web sites that are causing problems.

  "Clear the Cache":

  • Firefox/tools > Options > advanced > network > content caching Web: 'clear now '.

  'Delete Cookies' sites causing problems:

  • Firefox/tools > Options > privacy > Cookies: "show the Cookies".

  If clearing cookies doesn't work, then it is possible that the cookies.sqlite file that stores the cookies is corrupted.

  Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete the other files of cookies as cookies.sqlite - journal in the profile folder of Firefox in the case where the cookies.sqlite file has been corrupted.
