Does the results page appear blank, or does Firefox skip past that page?

If the results page appears blank, this is a problem with the way Firefox caches the results when you use the default setting of "instant prediction" results combined with a high zoom level. You can reload the page (Ctrl+r) or to avoid that, see this post for a workaround: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/970863?page=2#answer-485663.

Please update to the current Firefox 27 release.

  • Help > About Firefox

The Firefox Firefox 3.5.2 version that you currently run is no longer supported with security updates.

  • It is important to update Firefox and add-ons to the latest version to get all security fixes.
