Using MacBook Pro OSX 10.7.3 and Firefox 10.0.2 when downloading pages via internet of newspapers such as Toronto Star for example, photos included in the page or item download are absent from the download. There is a box with a line margin around the space for the photo, and the written description of the photo is present.

Firefox is browser of preference and every version prior to most recent update has functioned perfectly.

This is a new problem!

Thank you.

See IF permissions.default.image in about:config has value 1 (Default)


type in the address bar about:config

then press the button i'll be careful i promise

then type in the bar permissions.default.image

then right-click on it, select modify, type 1 , click OK,

exit firefox and restart-it.


see for info : Permissions.default.image

see also: Images or animations do not load

Thank you however, this solution fails at the entry:

permissions.default.image

which brings up a "DNS Guide" with many entries including:

Permissions.default.image - MozillaZine Knowledge Base

The title given to this article is incorrect due to technical limitations. The correct title is permissions.default.image. This article describes the preference ...

kb.mozillazine.org/Permissions.default.image

The solution offered will go no further than the article above.

Is there an alternative?

Your help is appreciated....!!

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

  • Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
  • Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
  • Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > 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.

Make sure that you do not block third-party images, the permissions.default.images pref should be 1.

There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images.
