developers console will not load

I'm using MS Windows 8.1 with Google Chrome Version 35.0.1916.114 m
I have a free Salesforce trial version

From the "My Name" menu I chose "Developer Console".
I get a new window Force.com Developer Console with the "Loading workspace ..." progress bar.
The progress bar gets hung at about 50%.

Any advice?

Oded is the consistent regardless of environment?  Have you tried this in another production instance or a developer edition?

Hello Phillip.

Thanks for the prompt response.

I am using a free trial version. As far as I understand this means one single environment.
Do you know of a limitation to using the developer console in a trial version?

Regrads, Oded

SAme issue is with me as well. I have tried on different browsers, but issue still remains. Even, when I tried to create the project in Eclipse, I am not able to connect to salesforce server. It seeme to be an issue with firewall an dproxy, but after doing proper changes, it is still there. Can someone put their answers if they have figured out this issue. Any pointers will be appreciated.

I think I found the problem... I signed up simply as a regular account at salesforce.com... I later signed up from another url http://developer.salesforce.com/signup and with this account my developer console started opening instantly... Having smooth drive in salesforce so far... I strongly recommend test drive on salesforce by completing the step by step tutorial @ http://ccoenraets.github.io/salesforce-developer-workshop/index.html...

Solution that worked for me is (IE instruction, i'm sure it's similar for all browsers) : when you see developer console page with "loading workspace..." message, right click on page, go to the properties | certificates | Install Certificate and then complete the certificate installation with wizard, after that reset your developer console.

I had the same issue. When I was opening the developper console from my organization menu, it will fail to open and keep loading for ever.

So I just copy the https link (https://YOUR ORGANISATINO.my.salesforce.com/_ui/common/apex/debug/ApexCSIPage) of the loading page and re-open a new web page, copy the link and the console this time open as usual in a new page. I put this link in my Favorite in Chrome Broswer in case of this issue reappear.

Work for me.

I copied and past the URL into another page as suggested by @Frederic Lapierre 5 and was able to gain access to the console where I can go in and delete the APEX Class that was giving me the issues. I was looking to create a Lightning Component through a Trailhead exercise.

Chrome opened a new window and page timed out.  I copied and pasted into my open window and the developer console opened!  Trailhead and My Playgrond froze but I could use the console and just re opened TH and MP.

I ran into the same issue (same as image posted by Ganesh M), and copying the URL and pasting into a new tab worked. There must be some issue with the popup when certain resources/components are open in developer console.

Copy URL: https://orgInstance.force.com/_ui/common/apex/debug/ApexCSIPage  from Developer console Page and then paste it into a new tab in your browser.It will work fine.

This is only temporary problem and you can open developer console in new window the next day you log in
