I can't type in Firefox (websites, other browsers work well)

When I start typing something on Facebook, or in my email, or comment on a blog, in Firefox, it will let me type a word or two and then nothing more. All other functions work fine, it's not frozen, but there is no response to what I've done with the keyboard. Other internet browsers and other programs work very well. It started with the SPACEBAR is slightly behind the other letters (so I typed a Word, you press space, had to wait for space to appear before I could type the next word) but now it's all.

  • Got the update of Firefox and now it hangs / crashes after loading homepage. Have been through the help pages Firefox but no change. Other browsers work well. Help! Best regards, Yuna

    Ive only been a Firefox user for many years now and get automatic updates without problem. But I got an update today, November 14, 2011 Australia and now Firefox crashes / freezes after loading the home page. I changed NOTHING else on my system at all. Other browsers work fine.
    I went through your help pages, but could not find anything that my help - I have a 5 year old laptop Dell with Windows 7 running. Ive never had any problems until now.

    Hey Yuna,

    Completely uninstall Firefox from your system. {http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_firefox#On_Windows}

    You can download the latest version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/fx/

    If you don't want to lose your bookmarks, you can back up your bookmarksbackups inside your profile directory {http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder} folder.

  • I can't comment or whatever it is on Facebook as when using Firefox. Other browsers work, but not Facebook.

    I tried to clear my history, cookies and everything else on Firefox, but it does not solve the problem.

    Whenever I try to comment on a post on facebook it says "Unable to display the comment." And it wont let me as any positions either.

    Google Chrome works perfectly with Facebook. I don't want to quit smoking using Firefox, but unless I get soon a solution that may be what I have to do.

    I recently got my Facebook working again when I disabled my extensions at the same time. It was a mistake, but because by then, I didn't know what could be the cause of the problem. After activating one by one, do the reboots needed, etc, I noticed that the only time where Facebook will not load my messages or I would like / comment is when the Plugin of effective Community measure 3.1.0 (by effective measure Pty Ltd) is enabled. I thought that perhaps similar plugins or products of the same manufacturer are not compatible with Facebook and Firefox 17. IDK.

    Bottomline is: there is an extension/plugin that went rogue. There may be more.

  • Why my Bank does not recognize my computer whenever I connect, and this only happens when I connect with Firefox not other browsers

    I connect to Bank and firefox remembers my account #, but when the next screen appears the Bank does not recognize my computer. Each time to answer the correct security question, I check the box to remember as a personal computer, but he never does. This only happens when I use Firefox, not other browsers. Other browsers don't forget Acct and that it is a personal computer.

    Many issues of the site can be caused by corrupted cookies or cache. To try to solve these problems, the first step is to clear cookies and cache.
    Note: This will be you temporarily disconnect all sites, you're connected to.
    To clear the cache and cookies to do the following:

    1. Go to Firefox > history > clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is displayed) go to tools > clear recent history.
    2. Under "Time range to clear", select "all".
    3. Now, click the arrow next to details to toggle the active details list.
    4. In the list of details, see the Cache and Cookies and uncheck everything.
    5. Now click the clear now button.

    More information can be found in article to clear your cache, history, and other personal information in Firefox .

    We hope to hear from you soon.

    I wouldn't store any bank information on your computer for various security issues.

  • Cannot load a site Web of Firefox only, other sites work.

    This used to work, but now I can't connect to a server by using Firefox. I can connect to this server using Epiphany on the same laptop and other computers, even using Firefox on other computers (although this system has not yet upgraded to FF10).

    The error that I get over and over again, it is "the connection to the server was reset while the page is loading."

    I have cleared the cache, cookies, etc., all items to clear recent history, with the time range 'everything '. I use not offline, or to have data stored for offline use. I am not using a proxy and disabled ABP. When I remove the server for the site certificate I waited "this connection is not reliable." and after I "Confirm Security Exception" I'm back to "connection... load reset while...".

    I read in the troubleshooting guides and not found anything else.

    Else where Firefox stores the data that could help to connect to this site?

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    The current versions of Google Chrome have this bug fix as well (this link fails in GC) and the IE can have if the corresponding hotfix is installed.

  • Videos on youtube are restless and skippy, this only happens on firefox, other browsers work fine...

    I started my computer this morning and everything seemed normal, again I am on youtube, each video, I tried to watch would not play correctly, even if yesterday things were very good, and I never had this problem before...
    I had not been updated, installed or otherwise changed anything between two days and everything works fine...
    Whenever I start a video sound has chopped and dumpsters/GAL since it does not follow... It's hard to describe... A bit like if you listen to a CD with a lot of scratches...
    Initially, I assumed it was a problem of Flash Player... But after the update of Flash Player and Firefox to the latest versions, the problem persists...
    Now, I guess it's a Firefox problem, because I tried to watch the videos in other browsers, and they play very well...
    I have no idea what is the cause... And I would appreciate your help or you could give me solutions...
    I'm not that big of a computer expert, so please forgive me for nothing seemingly obvious, I could have forgotten...
    Thanks in advance...

    I know it's old, but one thing that try to solve this problem, I noticed a few months. YouTube is automatically to have some users using some browsers use HTML5 video.

    Next time you get this video chopped, right click and click "on HTML5.

    He will tell you that youtube has you automatically entered in their beta version and to withdraw, you click on the link at the bottom to stop seeing the HTML5 videos.

    I hope that helps you, it helped me.

  • Slide show does not not on Firefox. Other browsers ok. (Muse CC)

    Hello. I had a site which worked perfectly, and now that I have installed Muse CC homepage slideshow does not work in Firefox. I tested it in Safari and Googl Chrome and it works very well on these, just not Firefox. I also tried to export the site in my browser (Firefox) and it works fine there too. It's just at the point where I'll live with it. I tried to download all the files to new cae too something become corrupt. No success yet. Any help would be great. Thank you.

    This page and slide show work well for me on Firefox. I can have you try to do a 'hard' on the page reload? To do this, you can press Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + R. This will force your browser to dispel all the resources that have been cached and redownload everything from the server. See if that helps.

    If that doesn't help, can you describe what exactly you see, and what version of Firefox you have?

  • New type of font "Century Gothic" and works well with the 'live view', but also a google chrome. As soon as I download my index.html file my changes disappear and always see them in dreamweaver, but not on my real Web site. any help will be great. Thank y

    I downloaded my new "Century Gothic" font type and works well with live view, but also a google chrome. As soon as I download my index.html file my changes disappear and always see them in dreamweaver, but not on my real Web site. any help will be great. Thank you!

    I use and Filezilla to connect to our FTP site.

    I see on line 42 of style.css

    do-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;

    I see on line 180

    do-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;

    and I see FontAwesome used in several places.

    I can only conclude that Courier New is the applied font.

    If you have a different version of style.css on your local system?

  • Drag a break is not the button "next".  All other slides work well, what don't get me?

    Hello

    I created training modules that require the learner to click next to advance to the next slide.  In a slide, there could be transitions within this topic, but I want the learner to have to click to the next major topic (slide).  It works fine for all other blades, except for the following...

    I am betting that the solution to this will be obvious to at least one of you.  I hope that my screen will show what I'm not doing correctly.

    For all other slides, I Action drag 'Continue' enter (to move the script) and 'Pause' to the output, to make the button NEXT to do the work.  Others seem to work well, but this one gives me problems.  Any thoughts?

    Adobe Screenshot Slide Advance.jpg

    What version do you use? None of the buttons on this slide is a break this slide. Add action break leaving CP7 (and 6) is not the way to go: this action is executed when the playback head has left the last image, so pause will occur on the first frame of the next slide. I'm puzzled that you say that it works on some slides? Sure that you do not have a break on the next button, which is the normal way to pause a slide. Also, there is no reason to do this slide as long. You can interrupt this button for 1 sec, and reduce the duration of the slide at 7secs, throw all the useless frames only increase the size of the file.

  • 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?

  • Since I updated Java, Firefox (16.0.2 for Windows) will play no longer videos. Other browsers work as usual. Can someone advise?

    Videos won't play, and some sites say that Java is not enabled, but it is.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

    • Do not click on the reset button on the start safe mode window or make changes.

    You can check the problems caused by the recent updates of Flash and try these:

    • disable an eventual extension of the browser for Firefox Plugin RealPlayer Record and if installed RealPlayer update
    • disable the safe_mode in Flash 11.3 and later versions
    • turn off hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin
    • demote the Flash player to version 10.3 or 11.2
