I have 34.0.5 and am still getting the black and pages don't open, in addition I am not getting an error message like I used to, HELP!
I will be watching something and get a black screen. I open a new page and I get a black screen that never opens into the page. These problems only started with my recent update. I can refresh and it doesn't seem to do anything - HELP!
The other weird thing is that I don't get the firefox popups I used to that would close it and fix the problem. Not that I liked it having to shut down, but at least it then worked.

hello Atwitsend, could you go to the firefox menu ≡ > help ? > troubleshooting information, copy the contents of that page and paste them here into a reply on the forum? this might give us a clue what is going on...

Experimental Features
ok thanks, maybe that's an issue with hardware acceleration - please try to disable hardware acceleration in the firefox menu ≡ > options > advanced > general (that setting will take a restart of the browser to take effect).
You can also try to disable OMTC and leave hardware acceleration in Firefox enabled.
- about:config page: layers.offmainthreadcomposition.enabled = false
You can click this button on the troubleshooting information page (about:support) to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
- Help -> Troubleshooting Information -> Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
It seems to be better with the first solution. I will come back if it doesn't work. Thanks!
