When I try to upload or download a document, on various websites, the file browser window that pops up has no file names or any other information other than the icons. Mousing over a file brings up the size, date modified etc but not the file name. If I right-click the icon and open up the file properties, all the information is there except the file name, which is blank. Changing the view (list vs icons, for instance) changes nothing. Am using Firefox 35 and Windows 8. Problem did not occur with earlier versions of Firefox.

When the window comes up, what view are you using? Have you tried to change the view? At the end of the input field, can you select all files?
