I am using Firefox 20. I can play Facebook games like Angry birds. Flash player is not the problem because YouTube works fine. games like crazy taxi, cube, backgammon not loading, not even the page - full blank. I tried with other browsers, It works.

Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.

  • Press and hold Shift 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 the cookies from sites 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/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window or otherwise make changes.

I tried those already and after that i posted this problem here. I tried Shift+reload and Shift+F5. not works. I tried with safe mode too. no use. just remaining on the blank screen only. but another tab pops up and it is with the original game site - same game opens up. eg. https://buggle.cookapps.com/buggle/ since Buggle on Facebook is https://apps.facebook.com/playbuggle/ In the new original game website I can able to play games. but not in Facebook. i added those screenshots. //support.cdn.mozilla.net/media/uploads/images/2013-05-07-19-51-29-1fc384.png //support.cdn.mozilla.net/media/uploads/images/2013-05-07-19-49-43-221367.png


I think the problem is with popups I use Popup blocker. but in the safe-mode all disabled, but no use. I think i should install a portable Firefox and try to check games works on it or not. Any way thanks for your try.

My problem is in playing Solitaire blitz on FB Recently it has become very slow and almost unplayable I contacted PopCap re this issue and their reply was as follows: "If you are using Firefox as your browser currently, we strongly recommend using Chrome instead at this time, as there are known incompatibility issues with Firefox since the latest update to Adobe Flash. Until either Flash or Firefox release a new update to address these issues, online games will not run optimally in that browser." I have a desktop PC and use win Vista I did download Chrome and have to say the game plays ok

This is a very recent problem Probably since the last firefox update

Please help as i much prefer using Firefox

So no response from Mozilla Firefox even though i contacted support Cheers!! Maybe I should go back to Chrome since you don't really seem to care!
