# Visual editor missing, Firefox 39.0

 * Greetings,
 * I have an odd problem – the visual editor disappeared for a single website, and
   in a single browser. No problem with Opera, Chrome, or IE (!), but Firefox 39.0
   won’t show the visual editor for one web site out of the 14 I maintain – and 
   Firefox is my go-to browser.
 * I’ve cleared the cookies and cache in browsing history, and de-activated all 
   the plugins – to no avail. Any words of wisdom as to what the problem might be?
 * The site is brand new, and is at cpusafety.siterubix.com
 * Thanks much,
 * Dennis

 * Try deactivating all Firefox add-ons. If that resolves the issue, reactivate 
   each one individually until you find the cause.

 * FYI, Firefox 39.0 in Windows 7 Pro 64bit works fine for me, but I only have my
   one blog.
 * Now, if it’s not working for only one of the websites you maintain, then it’s
   possible that website is triggering some ad-blocking filter or similar thing.
 * Like James mentioned, restarting Firefox with add-on disabled (Help -> Restart
   with Add-ons Disabled) will help to determine if an add-on is causing it.

 * Likewise, no problems in Firefox 39.0 under OS X 10.10.4.
