I can't edit or create a Hub using Firefox. Every time I attempt to save a capsule, a window pops up that says 'Microsoft encountered an error and needs to close' or something along those lines. I've had to use Internet Explorer to work with Hubs.
Anyone else experiencing similar problems?
I have had the error with Firefox a few times, and it closes everything down, so I lose any info that was in the capsule I was working on. Overall, it works...but there are those frustrating times when it closes down.
I use Firefox and have not experienced any problems. I believe I am running the latest version.
Stacie,
Yeah, that's exactly what it does to me. Very frustrating. I don't have problems with Firefox anywhere but Hubpages.
Simco, thanks for the information. Maybe that's it.
Spuds, I just downloaded what I thought was Firefox's latest version also. But maybe I didn't and that's the problem.
Thanks, everybody. Right now I don't have time to pinpoint the glitch, so I guess for now that I'll just use IE. Oh well...
I use K-meleon and I find it much faster than firefox but it does not have all the plugins like firefox if thats what you need, and I use it more than my other 4 browsers and I don't have any problems using it at hubpages
And as Angela was saying firefox has just undergone a few major updates which I was about to do and it warned me that somethings might not work once updated so I never bothered and I can't remember exactly what!!

I run the latest version of FF - most of the time it works OK with no issues (but I've not done much yet!) However, if I try to run a spell check it tells me it has a problem and has to close - so far that is the only time I found it hang up

To the powers that be at HP: this is getting OLD. What's the point of a writing site that won't let you edit, let alone publish, your work????? Seems to happen only on the weekends, and I'm 100% sure it IS NOT on my end. No Windows updates pending, cache has been emptied, system...

The videos I am using on my hubs are all displaying an error message, and refusing to play. It was only a few videos at first, but now it's all of them.I have had only a few comments about the videos, so I am assuming that others are not having this problem. I am running Windows 7, and I use the...

I'm still having problems saving text capsules that have links in them.I've been having the problem for months now. Every now and then I can't save text capsules that have contextual links within the capsule. I'm using Firefox and I've tried Safari today. I can only get it to work most of the time...

I tried to upload pictures for a new hub, but got a white box with an "X" instead of my pictures. I haven't had this problem before. Anyone else have problems on New Year's Day?

I have been experiencing problems trying to post comments. When I finish writing the comment it doesn't post and the screen returns to the top of the hub. Anyone in my boat?
