Some pages don't load on Firefox. They charge after changing the proxy settings back.

I have a very annoying problem with Firefox. Some pages not loading, randomly. Other browsers work fine. I tried to disable all add-ons, I reset firefox, I tried safe mode. Nothing works. When a page does not load, I go to advanced/network/configuration and change the setting between 'no proxy', 'use system settings' and 'auto-detect' proxy. I try to reload each time, sometimes try to go to another page and then come back. Finally the page I want loads. Sometimes it loads when I just of the cycle on the same setting, as it was before! It makes no sense to me. I'm on MAC OSX 10.8.5 and have no proxy at the system level settings (all boxes are unchecked).

Any help would be appreciated! I don't want to change chrome, but I'll be forced to if I can't solve this problem! (annoyingly, the page did not load when I tried that submits the first time...)

Try disabling IPv6 (also check other possible causes).

  • some pages will not load in Firefox - only works in IE and Google - have cleared cookies cache and reset firefox - no luck

    Failed to load www.simplyrecipes.com in Firefox. It works in Chrome and IE 8. OS is XP - latest firefox and all windows updates.

    According to the troubleshooting guidelines, I have deleted the history, cache and cookies. Then I reset firefox. Still no luck.

    Hello.

    I was going to just through all the steps of troubleshooting above without success.
    I see that disable the plugins is not permanent - restart the browser allows all the plugins again - did not see how to remove the plugins...

    OK, I have disabled all plugins except the 2 (adobe flash and shockwave)
    then I disabled javascript. It works!

    I have re-enabled Javascript and page breaks. Looks like the site's bug.

    Thanks a lot for your help.

    I will activate my plugins now and test again.

    Some thing funny - without reloading the browser - I went in plugins/Add-ons- and they were all turned on again. With Javascript turned off that the site works.

    If you want me to check anything else (later) I'll do it.

    Thanks again!

    Don't load your Firefox profile. May be missing or inaccessible.

    Hello mal3chka, if you remove the profiles.ini file, then a new default profile will be created the next time you start the application and a new profiles.ini file will be generated that references the new profile.

    Thank you

  • Firefox 38.0.1 changed the new behavior of the page

    I have a page with all the links that I like to use; I used it for years. Each link on the page creates a new page (target = "_blank"). All of a sudden the new pages came up with nothing else that a bar of address cannot be changed... not bar menu, no search box, no toolbar. Is not the way in which the new page links have never behaved, and I want that they continue to behave in the way that they have always worked.

    I must say, I'm really tired of the development of Firefox team deciding to change the behavior of things with a requirement that I spend one or two hours or more to find what they did, why they did it and how to fix it. Y ' All seem to think that whenever you come with a wonderful idea that we're all supposed to love it and the idea that we can't are unthinkable for you.

  • How can I stop Firefox from sinking my IP when I use the proxy settings?

    So basically I use settings from manual proxy on Firefox from time to time to be more anonymous. These proxies are normally rather slow (but hey, it's the price for you to pay for anonymity). Sometimes I'll see a sudden leap of speed. I suspected that the proxy may not work for some reason any. So, I use a website that tells you that your IP address is to see if the proxy settings are really working. Of course when I update the site it gives me my real IP. I have check the proxy settings and it turns out that the browser was restored to use the proxy settings of the system (for some reason that is the default instead of no proxy). This happens randomly and why not apparently when I use the Manual proxy settings and it flees my IP every time that happens (and I never know when it does, unless I am very attentive). Is it possible to prevent him from returning to the system without no reason proxy settings? BTW, I tested the proxy in question after what is happening so it still works which preclude the possibility of the proxy does not (even if that were the case, I'd rather my IP don't Connect at all that the leak). So yes, any help in getting it to stop doing that would be nice.

    Hi internetman, in your system more than details it shows as active. It may or may not be something, but try to disable in case it makes a difference.

    I can't access my hotmail account among some other sites since the upgrade to 3.6.8 on my macbook. I get the following message: "the proxy server refuses connections.

    Set your settings to connect to the 'No proxy', if you are not using a proxy.

    Firefox 3.6.6 added a new preference for connection settings, use proxy Panel"system settings", and the default value is the point. " This new preference does not affect most users, because they probably do not have a proxy set in place in their operating system. Therefore, most users should use the setting "no proxy".

    LiveCycle ES4. I am trying to move a picture online with a text box to create a header.  I had to create a subform that flows to generate multiple pages of text.  After changing the settings, it seems that I can't place the images and the text I would like.  I tried moving them to the bottom, but does not work.  Is there a way to encapsulate the images so that they can be places as much as I want?

    Select your photo and text inside the subform flowed. Right-click and select wrap in subform do the positioned Subform subform. This will allow you to move objects in this subform positioned the way you like them.

  • My screen iphone6 is cracked and in my country, they can only change the iphone with a new one and with a very high price. Is there anyway that I could replace just the screen?

    My screen iphone6 is cracked and in my country, they can only change the iphone with a new one and with a very high price. Is there anyway that I could replace just the screen?

    No, if you want to keep all rights to the service or support from Apple. Not to mention the fact that it then will be bork Touch ID and make the phone unusable if ever, you restore or update of iOS.

    Apple doesn't sell parts of the iPhone. There is no legitimate sources for replacement screens.

    Hello

    In Windows 7, the AllUsers folder is not a real file.

    It is a symbolic link that redirects to the C:\ProgramData folder.

    ProgramData is not hidden, by default.

    The correct syntax for the Attrib command would be,

    C:\>attrib h ProgramData

    You can view all files by going to the tab options\View Organize\Folder and research.

    In the section files and hidden files , place a check mark in the Show drives, folders and hidden files.

    Click Apply/OK.
