I can't get a blinking cursor on clicking any of the input fields, regardless of the website.
When I click on input fields like "username" , "password", sometimes I dont get a blinking cursor like I used to get in Firefox 28. In the later versions, I have to refresh the webpage and try again. It usually happens when I am visiting other tabs while the webpage loads. I am facing this problem since Firefox 29 onwards. Please help.

Can you try to start Firefox in Safe Mode to see if Firefox opens properly with no error? You can start Firefox in Safe Mode below:
- Windows/Mac: Hold the SHIFT/Option key while opening Firefox
- Linux: Run firefox -safe-mode in the Terminal/Konsole
If Firefox opens up fine with no problems, it's probably one of your extensions that's causing the issue. You can re-enable your add-ons one by one until you find the one that causes the issue upon being re-enabled.
I notice that you have disabled TLS 1.1 and later: Your System Details list shows this pref setting:
- security.tls.version.max: 1
Did you make this change this pref yourself for some reason? If not then best is to reset the pref on the about:config page via the right-click context menu to the default value.
0 means SSL 3.0, 1 means TLS 1.0, 2 means TLS 1.1, 3 means TLS 1.2 etc.
@cor-el : it felt like it worked....but its happening again.
restore the firefox again if it reapeat same again try to install with new version .
You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
- Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
- Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
- Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
Clear the cache and cookies only from websites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
- Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
- Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
- Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
- Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window
thank you very much.... i have narrowed down the addon which is causing the problem. So, is there a way i can use the addon or removing it is the only option.
What add-on is causing this problem?
