I am an Etsy shop owner and always been able to access my shop just fine all the sudden about three weeks ago I cannot log in to my shop on ff. I can view the Etsy site but when I try to log in it just loads and loads and will not let me. I know it is the script bc I added a script turn off add on and I could log on but Etsy will not let you have it turned off to edit items if your shop so I had to download chrome just to go to my shop which is annoying, I do not like chrome.

Other than that a few more sites like creative market and a few blogs will not load anymore for me. I have already re-set and that did not work. Also I get a lot of script not responding plugin popups that freeze and crash. This is really annoying. Does anyone know a fix? Thanks..

You can try basic steps like these in case of issues with web pages:

Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.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 only cookies 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 > Cookies: "Show Cookies"

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

  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

I tried all of these with no luck.
