When you visit some Web sites, Firefox does not display the topic sites and sometimes the text correctly. It seems broken and unreadable.

I reinstalled a new version of Firefox and set all of the default settings, but the problem still persists. Running Windows 7 and I have tried several different browsers (IE, Safari, Chrome and Opera) and all seem to work well. Only problem is with Firefox. The only time it works great is when I do not allow the site to use their own fonts. For any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

These sites use the Helvetica font?

There has been problems reported with older versions of the Helvetica font bitmap or Geneva or fonts (bitmap) that Firefox cannot display in this size.

Firefox cannot display some old bitmap fonts in a larger size gibberish and display instead.

You can test in zoom out (view > Zoom > Zoom out, Ctrl-) to make the text smaller.

Uninstall (remove) all variants of this not working do Firefox, use another font or see if you can find a version of real type that does not show the problem.

There was also the fonts with a reported Chinese name who self-identify as Helvetica, in order to check that as well.

  • Safari crashes when you visit some Web sites.

    Safari freezes when I visit certain websites. The sites include espn.go.com and www.nytimes.com. I think it might have something to do with the graphics on the page. I have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player installed. The gel causes me to restart the computer by using the toggle switch, as my mouse pointer can move, but can't click on anything. Thanks for the help.

    This seems to be the same problem that has affected particularly other Mac and PC users for the past two months, all over the world. Amazon sites especially behave badly in this regard, giving rise to not only the phenomenon of gel, but also the appearance of spinning beachball dreaded Mac. There has been lengthy discussions within these forums about this. Almost all browsers and all platforms are affected by this. Flash doesn't seem to be a factor, and the last three versions of Mac OS x - Mavericks and El Capitan, Yosemite - are also affected.

    The problem seems to be caused by Javascript has changed to some Web sites, which now makes these sites less compatible with browsers. My own investigations have shown that, in the case of Safari, the problem was sensitive to the fontsize. Certainly, in the case of the iMac, if you went in the settings of Safari preferences, to the Advanced tab and set the browser fontsize on 14 or less, he avoided the question and subsequently, the site was stable. In your case, you use a MacBook, but nevertheless it might be useful to try the same thing.

    This problem is widespread, but it will never be fixed unless and until Apple is enough complaints from users. So, complain! http://www.apple.com/feedback. Web sites have to say so, but it is not so easy to communicate with their developers, I found.

    This question has become huge in its importance. Apple seems insensitive to this (or selfless), even after a few months.

    My personal opinion is that, regardless of the implementation "upset" JavaScript on the Web sites, Safari itself has a few bugs in this area. I found the beachball appearing momentarily (with no adverse effect after) when switching back to using the Web to an embedded application or the GUI of my router, for example.

  • Firefox does not display the pages correctly.

    Images are not displayed. It works if I start in safe mode, but I don't know what extensions or plug-ins is causing the problem. Tried to uninstall and reinstall, but all the same plugins and extensions are always there. I can't remove the extensions or plugins.

    Have you tried disabling hardware acceleration?

  • Firefox does not display the changes on the site after the remote host; Refresh does not work

    I recently had to reinstall Windows 7 on my machine, and since it has been wiped off I installed CS5, reconfigured my Dreamweaver site and made changes to our page index.html (so far).  After you put the files on my remote server, I noticed that Firefox does not display the changes I made to this file - it is to show the page previously recorded on my CS4 version.  Thinking it was a cache problem, I emptied, refreshed/reloaded several times, restarted Firefox - nothing has worked.

    I checked the page in IE8 and all changes are not displayed correctly.  I used BrowserLab to display a preview in IE, Firefox (same version 3.6 which I use) and Safari, and all 3 display correctly version update of the page.  Visualization in 'live' of Firefox seems to be the problem, and I've looked everywhere for answers. Help is needed and appreciated!

    It is possible that you redefined the site incorrectly and put the files to the wrong address on the server. Carefully check both your local and remote sites definitions.

  • My firefox does not display the icon fonts!

    I use fontello.com for my web design project. But recently it does not display the icon.

    and the strange thing is that its OK my Firefox friends and just my PC have the problem.

    for example, this page shows icon on my friends firefox but I can't see the icons
    https://DL.dropboxusercontent.com/u/28793409/fontello-d3b0f38a/demo.html

    That's what I see
    https://DL.dropboxusercontent.com/u/28793409/shot.jpg

    If Safe Mode is good, the more likely culprits are one of your extensions or incompatibility of the graphics driver. To work around the second question, you can disable use of the hardware acceleration Firefox to see if that helps.

    "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > advanced

    In the mini ' General' tab, uncheck the box for "use hardware acceleration when available.

    It takes effect the next time you exit and restart Firefox.

  • After installation or upgrade to Firefox 31, starting Firefox does not display the home page, personalize displays a blank page and the radio button does not work

    I am the admin of Windows for a University Department and install PC with Firefox all the time. This problem does not occur with every PC I would maintain, only a selection bit (model different laptops with Windows and update 1 8.1.) Until today, it has happened with the new user (with admin rights) accounts that I place on laptops for our staff. Today, this happened with the account administrator while setting up a new laptop. In all cases so far, I have install Windows from a registered image that was created by using sysprep.

    I tried many suggestions to reset Firefox, removing the profile of Firefox users, removing the Windows profile users, uninstalling/reinstalling Firefox, uninstall/reinstall of Firefox and the latest Java, but nothing helped. After uninstalling, I run an application to delete the caches and temporary files and even remove manually the keys to register HKLM\SOFTWARE\Mozilla and HKCU\SOFTWARE\Mozilla. I restart and make sure that the installation folder is deleted after uninstalling.

    Results are the same: after installing Firefox 31, the initial settings for migration, IE or Chrome pop up and after having clicked on the button finish, Firefox starts but does not display the home page of the new user, only a blank page. By clicking on the Options (3 bars) button does nothing. Right click in the appropriate box, the shortcut menu appears, so I can choose to customize, but which opens another tab with subject: Customize the URL and the page is blank. In the right click context menu, I can activate the menu bar and get options from that.

    My last attempt helped a little. I uninstalled Firefox 31, cleaned, removed the profile user Firefox, rebooted and then installed Firefox 30. Initial start-up runs and tells me that I'm not up-to-date and the works of button Options. But I can't always customize.

    Then I upgraded to Firefox 31, but then it's back to no start page, no options button and no customization. I can go down to 30 and get customize practically works again.

    Addon only is for McAfee Scriptscan to Firefox 15.1.0, just after installation is disabled.

    Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

  • Firefox does not display the colors of the pages of the site despite trying your troubleshooting tips or reinstall, while without this problem with Chrome or Opera isthere

    I'm surprised, because I use Firefox for years and never met such a problem. Any Web site I can get with Firefox has its missing colors. The background is white. Also color of tab header/Navigation etc are missing. There is no problem with the sizes of fonts or colors.

    I see that this problem is only with Firefox only. I tried your troubleshooting tips which "Tools - Options - content - colours - allow pages choose own colors..." and also reinstall the latest version of Firefox without any addons. Problem persists.

    I tried the same thing about websites using Chrome and Opera, which returned the original colors of page.

    Can someone help me please?

    absolutely perfect, cor - el.

    as you suggested, I went to control panel configuration-> appearance and personalization-> personalization-> then "change theme". I chose a basic theme and here... the colors were back.

    Thank you very much cor - el for your tip fast and blind.

  • 12 Firefox does not display the favicons site by url bar constantly, how to fix?

    I am a webmaster so I have access to insert icon into a joomla website, the pages all have
    < link rel = "shortcut icon" type = "image/x-icon" href = "' / favicon.ico" / > "
    adding anyway since it is a Joomla 2.5.

    icon shows ok for domain name page which is a simple index.htm, without the code above! but no favicon for all
    domain name/index.php page... even with the code added above.

    bookmarks newly taken on the pages of the site are empty favicon too,

    pre-upgrade bookmarks are kept as any favicons of websites you visited before upgrading to v12

    How to fix the blindness to the site favicons?

    as far as I know it's a 16 by 16 pixel favicon, it was produced in line.

    I have no problem with seeing favicons on three sites in your PM on the tab bar (future versions of Firefox 14 + will not show the favicon on the address bar).

    They all send in the Content-Type: image/x-icon by the server.

    I note that there are two different favicons for the first two links you provide.
    Your page code specifies /templates/pulsar/favicon.ico (a star shaped icon; Content-Length: 1150), but there is also an another favicon (Content-Length: 894) in the folder root of the site that seems different.

    I do not know which favicon you intend to show up (Firefox displays the star icon specified for me).

    No problem with the S-shaped icon on the third link either.

    You can try to use the Live Http Headers extension to check if there is a demand for the favicons and the sending server response.

    You can also check out the tools > Page Info > media to check if the favicon shows up.

    You can make a standard test for problems with the images.

    Is he missing pictures then make sure you are not block images from certain domains.

    • Check the permissions for the domain in the active tab in "tools > Page Info > Permissions.
    • Check that the images are enabled: Tools > Options > content: [X] loading images automatically
    • Check exceptions in "tools > Options > content: Load Images > Exceptions.
    • See the tab "tools > Page Info > media ' for blocked images (scroll all the images with the cursor key).

    If an image in the list is grayed out and there is a check mark in the box "block Images of..." and remove this mark to unlock the images from this area.

    Make sure that you do not block the images of third parties, the pref permissions.default.images must be 1.

    There are also extensions (Tools > Modules > Extensions) and security software (firewall, antivirus) that can block images.

  • 9.0.1 Firefox does not display the entire Web page

    The latest version of Firefox has developed an intermittent bug on my desktop computer. Especialy after a full stop, the program stops displaying many, but not all, the content of the Web page on most Web pages. Drop-down menus and buttons in the sidebar seems particularly prone to this problem, but large chunks of main content also fails to display on most Web pages. It's as if the page only partially loaded, but the loading process has effectively ceased.

    Uninstall, reboot, and reinstall temporarily solves the problem. but it comes back.

  • Firefox does not display the Images selected from the Google search results!

    I'm a recent new user of Firefox, since my IE8 on XP does not work with certain sites.
    I am now on Firefox 25.
    Firefox has a couple of mixed content settings, and in fact, some changes have gone with 25 who has been registered to be in 24, but was not (I read).

    Anyway, my IE8 and IE9 on Windows 8, I believe, have a warning that appears in a box when I go to a web page with mixed content, so I can decide whether to allow the display of mixed content, and I make the judgment, if I'm on a bank or other secure site, etc.

    This mixed content WARNING CHOICE seems to be missing in Firefox, and I'm surprised!

    In any case, in Firefox 25, mixed the active content is blocked, and when I do a google search on '2014 Nissan Rogue', successes were few images called images.
    When I click on any of these images, a blank page appears, with no way to allow the image to display. Help!

    Looks like 25.0.01 that came out a few days ago has fixed the problem that existed in 25 delivered a few weeks before. Thank you!

  • Firefox does not display the printable credit card statements

    I get paperless credit card statements and I always print a summary of one page of the statement. I access my credit account and select view/print statement. It appears in PDF format, but Firefox shows just a blank page. There is no error dialog box. If I followed the same procedure using Internet Explorer, it works very well. This happens with my Visa and Discover cards. My current version of Firefox is 28.0. The operating system is XP and this is the current version with all updates installed. Sites secured for two credit cards work fine. I can view my statements OK, but cannot view the printable version of the statements. Why do IE, but not Firefox?

  • Firefox does not display the .swf files

    Hello

    Everything worked quite well in Firefox and then all of a sudden it stopped simply to display .swf files. Where they should be is simply empty. On Web sites with a background, I can see the background through where the .swf file should be. This includes the locally saved files as well as all Web sites with a .swf file that is supposed to play.

    I don't want to suddenly quite literally, as it was in the middle of a browsing session. I changed nothing, just... one minute they worked very well, the next they completely arrested. It is clear that the program is to recognize that something is supposed to be there, like Adblock appears a little tab 'Block' on where the file should be, but again, this space is completely empty. He's not black, it is transparent.

    I completely uninstalled reinstalled from zero and 'upgrade' Shockwave it three times now, all without effect.

    You can check for problems with the current versions of the plugin Shockwave Flash and try this:

    You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder:

    Among them .html and .ini and .js and .txt and you might see only a file name without file extension.
    You can check the file extension (type) in the file properties in Windows Explorer via the context menu.
