Occasionally Firefox 3.6.12 won't display photos on certain sites. Reloading works sometime but not alwasys.

At times on auction some sites such as ebay, (and others), photos won't display. If I press the reload button there's a chance the photo will display. If reload doesn't work the first time, pressing it 3 or 4 times may work but not always. Closing the site then re-opening works sometimes but not always. Annoying.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

See Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems and Troubleshoot issues with plugins like Flash or Java to fix common Firefox problems

If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.

  • Use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window to disable all extensions.
  • Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
