I just updated to the new version FF 13.0 and the new feature that uses the history to display the top most visited sites on the new tab is not working. When I open a new tab it is blank, I tried pulling a site from my bookmarks and letting it load and then opening a new tab and it did show up, but when I went to pin it, it disappeared.

I have been using the "pin as app tab" feature from the previous version, but would like to try the new feature with the new tab page.

So i wanted to see a Microsoft presentation video... and as they love to use HTML5 it's a HTML 5 video. I get the error^. I don't understand how to fix it in windows 7-32 bits.

Per the title. The issue came up after a Flash update. It seems to work fine in Firefox and Chrome, but when I try to, let's say, watch a YouTube video in Firefox, it won't work. It's not confined to YouTube, either: the same thing happens with Hulu as well as The Nostalgia Critic's website, whose videos are hosted by Blip.tv.

I'm pretty sure that the problem isn't JavaScript or another type of script, because JS appears to work fine - the dropdown list on YouTube's search bar functions how it's supposed to and Wikia's main page loads correctly, and these are functions which I know run off of JS. The same thing holds true for Sliverlight scripts and all of my other script plugins except for Flash.

I've tried clearing my cache and starting a new Firefox profile. I even reinstalled Firefox, but I kept all of my profiles when I did so, so I'm inclined to believe that if indeed it is a problem with Firefox and not with the Flash plugin, then it's a problem with one of the profiles.

As of 6/10/12, Adobe flash 11.3 would NOT work in Firefox 13. On any web site. I had no problems with IE. I run Vista, latest update.

None of the posted answers on this site solved my own particular problems.

This is how I successfully addressed the issue:

1) I removed all Adobe Flash caches as directed in http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/flash-player-games-video-or.html#main_6__Remove_Flash_Player_cache .

2) I uninstalled all instances of Adobe Flash through Programs and Features in the Control Panel.

3) I restarted my computer and Firefox.

4) I opened YouTube in Firefox. It directed me (automatically) to install Adobe Flash 11.2.202.235. Though I was aware of that version as the version previous to the current version (11.3), I was unable to locate it for download on the Adobe site.

Flash then worked again in Firefox 13.0.

As of today the "reply" button in the comment section on any youtube video has stopped working, Usually it brings up an input field when clicked, but now I get nothing except a blue glow around the button (cropped picture of what I see)

So far I have attempted the following with no success

• restarting firefox
• restarting the computer
• reinstalling latest version of flash

The button works if I access a video page through internet explorer, but I despise that browser.

Just this week (10/1/12) I signed out of youtube and now I cannot log back in there or in my gmail account. I have tried every single fix-it/remedy offered on the FF forum but nothing works.

Everything else works, all websites I frequent load fine, is youtube doing something on purpose to FF users? I can get to the youtube page and view videos, but I cannot log in, every time I click the sign in button I get:

"The page isn't redirecting properly

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete. 

This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies."

I hate to be a conspiracy theorist, but I can log in to youtube with no problem on IE, but I hate that browser. I am using windows 7 and FF 15. Can anybody figure this one out?

I'm using Firefox 13 beta. The new-tab page is an awesome feature, but it does not work well.

When i'm visiting sites it does not changes. It still like this: http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/2474/56130e74e4b842268628eba.png

If I restart Firefox, the new-tab page will have some sites, but with no thumbnails, like this: http://img822.imageshack.us/img822/8289/74eadf18095b43a39696159.png

Sorry for my bad English.

Hi,

I got an update to Mozilla Firefox over the weekend, and since then, it's not been working 100% correctly. I have version 13.0.1

I use gmail, but now can't seem to log in. I can get to the log in page no problem, but when I out my details in it tries to connect but nothing really happens (you can see "Connecting..." with the moving circle in the title field of the tab, so it seems to be doing something, but nothing actually happens).

Sometimes I get the "loading mynamegoeshere@gmail.com..." with the progression bar underneath, but the bar stays clear all the time. I don't always even get that far, sometimes it stays on the log-in page even though the Connecting circle is moving, sometimes it just changes to a blank page.

There has been one occasion when I got to the inbox, but only the HTML version (you know the one that you get if you have a slow connection), but then I couldn't actually open my emails and eventually logged out. That has not happened since.

I also use another gmail account for work (which we use by logging in through a portal on our website), and have been having a similar problem with that, only that sometimes the pop up window that appears just comes up as an about:blank tab.

Refreshing the page (for either account) doesn't seem to have any effect.

I can get around the problem for the moment by using IE, but for a host of reasons I'd prefer to be able to use Firefox.

Is there any way of fixing this? I have looked here http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/fix-problems-connecting-websites-after-updating?s=firefox+13.0.1+gmail+problems&r=4&e=es&as=s and updated my Windows Firewall putting Mozilla in as an exception, but that doesn't seem to have made a difference.

This also applies to other Google stuff like the calendar.

I am not having any problems with other websites.

I use AVG for my anti-virus, but Windows Firewall.

Thanks

Chatzum has installed itself on Firefox.and appears as default search engine each time I open a new tab. It does not appear in the search enhines list or as an add-on. Can you suggest how to remove it

I would like to remove the thumbnail view when opening a new tab. I use Firefox on my home and work computers. Unfortunately, when using my work computer, the thumbnail view from websites I access from my home computer comes up. I would like to remove or disable this feature on my work computer. How do I accomplish this?

I downloaded this new update and it didn't work at all. I again had to uninstall and reinstall Adobe 10.3. I don't want to keep going through this. How can I find out when a new update works with Firefox? Does anyone know if Firefox is working on an update as I'm having a few problems with that too.

firefox version: 13.0 windows vista 32bit SP2 antivirus: comodo. plugin-container.exe is on the exceptions list

after latest update vista reports that "plugin-container.exe is not responding" after hitting "check online....." a pop up next to the clock indicates that DEP terminated the process.

some event viewer info....

I used to be able to use MSN Messenger right from my inbox just fine until firefox upgraded to 13.0 I don't why but now it won't load. It works just fine on Internet Explorer but not on firefox after I upgraded and I don't want to use internet Explorer so if anyone can help I'd very much appreciate it, any help is welcome. Thank you.

Like a lot of others, I have had terrible problems with this damn incredibar thing that has somehow gotten onto my laptop. Thanks to the other threads in the forums I have managed to get Firefox back to what I originally had, (remove webassistent, check about:config etc...) but I still have one concern. When I search for incredibar in about:config, I still get a whole load of extensions.incredibar results. I am not very technically literate when it comes to these things but is there anyway I can remove these or are they just remnants that I am better off leaving alone? The incredibar extension doesn't seem to come up in the list under the Firefox Tab. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
