Make sure you are not blocking content.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?


One issue that seems more common lately is Firefox's Tracking Protection feature. When it is blocking content in a page, a shield icon will appear at the left end of the address bar next to the padlock icon. This article has more info on managing this feature: Tracking Protection {web link}

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache.

  • Clear the Cache and
  • Remove Cookies

Warning ! ! This will log you out of sites you're logged in to. You may also lose any settings for that website.

If there is still a problem, Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Did this help?

While you are in safe mode;

Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox. Since this feature was added to Firefox it has gradually improved but there are still a few glitches.

Testing in Firefox's Safe Mode would rule out an extension as the culprit. Not seeing the "shield" icon for Content Blocking/Tracking Protection would rule out that feature. It sounds as though you have liberal cookie settings (as described in Websites say cookies are blocked - Unblock them). That leaves more obscure settings such as whether you allow sites to use local storage or service workers or other features the sites test for to ensure they can fully monetize your visit.

Could it be something external to Firefox? For example, some security software may intercept and filter your browsing, possibly removing ad server content in the process. Or some sites might be blocked via firewall or a hosts file, although normally those would affect other browsers as well.

Well thanks everyone for the help Like I said its not really important . I tried using My laptop windows 10 ,on the same site and I had no problem . So it appears to be some setting on this computer In the Config Settings of Firefox? As Chrome opens site normally. Well its time to move on, I have spent more time on this problem than necessary. Thanks All for the Help
