Various sites don't seem to work properly on Firefox recently. examples of problems are:- in youtube my inbox is completely blank, nothing shows up. on bbc.co.uk some videos won't play, video player is just blank. This also happens on other sites. Also on quite a few sites often buttons don't work properly.

On each occasion when encountering a problem I have tried again on google chrome and it's worked fine.

Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.

"Clear the Cache":

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"

"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:

  • Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"

Start Firefox in Use Troubleshoot Mode in Firefox to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
