  Hello!
  I just finished reading pretty much all the FAQs and the articles about the Visual Editor, but I can’t seem to find a solution.
  I have Firefox 8.0.1 and, even though the visual editor is not disabled, (I’ve checked two times, so I’m sure it’s enabled), it just doesn’t work for me.
  I’ve tried forcing a refresh of the page, cleaning up my cache and cookies but nothing seems to work.
  The icons for “add a new media”, “add poll” and “add a custom form” doesn’t work and all the other icons are missing. Plus, the editor shows the html tags.

  I’ll add a screenshot, so you can see for yourself.

  

  Hope you can help me resolve this.

  At Users -> Personal Settings in your Dashboard, is “Always use HTTPS when visiting administration pages” checked?

  If not, would you please try with it checked?

  “Always use HTTPS when visiting administration pages” wasn’t checked.
  I’ve turned it ON and now everything seems to work just fine.

  Thank you so much for your help and for the quick reply!!
