Pictures will not come up for anything on the web if shopping or on Facebook. I can get them on other web sites but not on Firefox and I want to know why they are blocked.

It is possible that you clicked "Block Images" in the right-click context menu while saving an image.

If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.

See:

  • Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in Tools > Page Info > Permissions
  • Check that images are enabled: Firefox > Preferences > Content: [X] Load images automatically
  • Check the exceptions in Firefox > Preferences > Content: Load Images > Exceptions
  • Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).

If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "Block Images from..." then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
