All my browsers hang at the point of "resolving host"

Any browser hangs at the click on a new site, always at "resolving host." The whole system slows down and pages are inaccessible.

From the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network ▹ Advanced... ▹ DNS
Under DNS Servers you should have one or more numerical addresses, such as “192.168.1.1” or “10.0.0.1”. What are those addresses?

Safari and all other browsers hang?

Safari and firefox and chrome have started to hang all the time. I have to force quit each when the dreaded rainbow ball replaces mu curser. I'm on an iMac running Mavericks. I have the latest flash player. 4GB of ram. I've installed Norton Internet Security. Norton's has been on my computer for a couple of months. This hanging started happening about a week ago. The sites that I view every day are cluttered with video. As soon as I scroll on the page up comes the ball. Is this because the Flash player can't keep up? It's impossible to view a website. Any help or solution would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Dear Linc Davis,
I have never been a fan of Norton’s Anything, too. It was provided by my ISP. I thought I’d give it a try. When I installed it and ran it the first time, it did find quite a few files with various viruses which were fixed or deleted.
I had the same feeling that Norton’s could be causing the problem. However, something strange happened overnight. I went through my morning website reads, and did not have one browser hang no matter how much I scrolled. It fixed itself somehow. If it does happen again, Norton’s will be my first trash. Thanks for your response. Sure wish I knew what happened, and how it fixed itself?

Can't open iPhoto. I don't get an error message. When I launch the application it just hangs and the pointer just spins. I pressed option apple and rebuilt the library and thumbnails and it's still not working. Do I need to re-install?

If I do need to re-install how do I do this? I saved a back up of my iphoto library. Does this mean my photos are safe if I re-install. Help is much appreciated!

If you're getting a hang like this at opening
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

Hello, I am on an iMac. I recently changed my password using the start up disc, now I have a thick lined rectangle, transparent, following my wireless track pad pointer all arount my moniter. The pointer is inside of it?

Hi, I think I covered everything in my subject?

Firefox hangs on the default Start Page

Hey.
I'm having a rather odd problem where Firefox hangs for about ten seconds while loading the default home page. It has worked just fine for years, and then suddenly yesterday every time I open a new tab or start Firefox (basically anything that would take me to the start page,) I get a 10-15 second hang.
I've confirmed this by changing the homepage to the old "http://www.google.com/firefox" which completely fixes the issue. No other pages do it, only the start page.
I've tried safe mode, but I knew it wouldn't yield any results as I've not changed configuration in any way for years.
I've tried updating to the most recent version of Firefox, this also had no effect.
I tried backing up my profile and resetting Firefox, of course still no effect.
Finally I tried completely uninstalling all Mozilla products, then sweeping the registry for any of their keys, then reinstalling it all. Still hangs on the start page.
So that this point I just restored my backed up profiles, scratched my head and came here.
The obvious solution would be to change homepage, but I can't let it beat me. =P
Anyone have any ideas? I'm pretty stumped at this point.

-Pokes up- I did, and its reply is simply 0 then does nothing.
My firefox version is also not old, I just downloaded a new instillation trying to fix this.

Satellite A200-24B (PSAE6) - display hangs when the pictures are zoomed

Dear Sirs, I can't believe that ther is no solution for the product you produce. Like my Toshiba that I bought 14 months ago and trying to fix it. I have a problem with my Display Card "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2600" when I view pictures with Windows Photo Gallery and trying to zoom it ... the display screen will hang and go with black and red blocks!
I tried to install all kinds of windows (XP - Vista from basic to ultimate). I tried to download all versions of catalyst from version 6 to 9.7. so what is going on!!!!
Do you know that most of my friends and people hated the brand Toshiba because of this bad reputation in the market ... keep in mind that Toshiba laptops with Nvidia graphic card doesn't have the same problem. please please please help me!
Your prompt response will be highly appreciated.
Sincerely,

Dear Lars_3,
First of all I want to thank you for your support. But I've tried all what you said, to the point that I downloaded CCC version 9.8 and still have the same problem, even the latest bios version!!!.
FYI I advised my friend to buy the same laptop "Toshiba A200-24B" because it had the best specifications that days. He is facing the same problem too!!!!! I believe this edition of laptop was very bad. Any way in this case I have to go and fight with the service center in my country that is responsible to repair it. Because I have three years warranty. So I am going to abuse it ;-)
If you can do any further help please tell me. I don't know how to attach a file if possible to show you my system information that may help in finding my problem!
So I am copied and pasted this information as follows:

Website page with jquery datepicker does not calculate dates while other pages without datepicker and all other browsers do their job

I wrote two mobile pages with dreamweaver cs5.5 and jquery. Both do online calculations. Both appear and accept input. One page using jquery datepicker does not calculate. Solely in Firefox. IE9, Safari, Chrome display correct results. Debuggers show no error. Firebug seems telling me that Firefox does not get a result from datepicker function.

Thanks. But did not help. I had done this several times before, reload, clear cache, disable extensions etc. Always used standard theme. I tried the same on two different machines, with next to last version and after having installed the latest version. In the debugger I can see that variables "zeit1" (jquery datepicker) were not filled with the datepicking results, while in all other browsers zeitX shows the current date and the app shows the results that are expected. Given that another comparable app - only without date and datepicker functions - works in Firefox I think one should explore why solely datepicker - or the function using datepicker - does not show results solely in Firefox on desktop (no mobile device with Firefox on hand) . I indeed believe that there is a mistake in my code which is detected only by Firefox (10.0.2 at the present time, with Win7 64bit - had the problem with 3.6... on another machine). Given that you could run the app with results on your machine: could it be the context of locale/culture (here: de)?
Kind regards

Please suggest.
Regards,
Kaushik

Hi Ankan,
Thanks a lot for the immediate response. During the initial synchronizaiton of the mobile client All the Outbound queues are cleared from the CRM system.
And the recieve is also succesfull in the Contranns. But the data import didnot happen. Contranns hanged in the data import phase and there are no errors.
I checked the Queue Manager in the Mobile client and there are no entries. But when its refreshed the following error is seen.
"Error loading queue entries from the user database (IDES)."
I have installed both SQL server and the Mobile Client in the Windows authentication mode.
Please suggest.
Thanks & Regards,

What is the point of the online chat if it doesn't work

I am desperately trying to get someone to explain my bill (I cannot make personal phone calls at work, so I cannot call) and when I click on the "online chat" it just greys itself out and says the agents are all busy. What's the point of this feature??

It works, because you are not able to chat doesn't mean it's broken or pointless. Granted it seems as if it is always busy customers do chat with reps all the time, enough to where it is always busy.

27" imac yosemite update hangs. Required power cycle and safe boot to get the update going. Now all OS X update do the same.

27" iMac Yosemite update hangs.
The original upgrade to Yosemite (10.10) took almost a full day! The computer hung during one of the reboots and just showed a blank grey screen, no apple logo, no progress bar, nothing. I left it like that for about an hour thinking it might be working in the dark... Eventually I had to power cycle. Disconnected power at the wall outlet for about 5 minutes, then reconnected and tried to start. After about 20 minutes, got to the same point, grey screen:no action, again waited at least an hour.
Then I did a safe boot. System came up OK in safe mode to the log in screen. As soon as I logged in, it proceeded with the interrupted update, which ran to completion. Yay!
Now, every update to Yosemite that arrives gives men the same grief!
To add some more, the "Pro Video Formats 2.0.1" update has installed about 4 times, and is asking to be installed again? There's no indication that it fails the update so whats going on?

I saw the set hibernet mode to 0 trick and it failed. Guess I can try 3 because reinstalling OS X did nothing but cost me another few hours and a little faith in Apple. Getting annoyed as I see how many people complain of the identical issue and the fixes are variable and random. Suggests to me that it is a major design flaw in the hardware and Apple got too cute with the just works idea and didn't put a damned power button on the display so there is no manual way to do it and no 'insert a pin here' type trick to reset the thing.
Asking for a refund tomorrow. Past the 14 days so maybe they'll say no but if so then every time this happens I will swap it out. At least then I know it is a three hour fix and as I was working on this for hours today it occurred to me that if the trick is to do 57 different things and maybe one will work then that is not why I made the switch to Apple. I could plug everything in on my PC and it all 'just worked'.
Really poor customer service - the support folks are very nice and I am sure they know that this is a systemic issue but aren't allowed to say so. Feeling pretty stupid for going on faith right about now.

HELP?!? - Website BeachBalls/Hangs Safari in OSX and iOS, loads fine on all other browsers.

Site beachballs Safari in OSX and iOS, loads fine on all other browsers.
The page loads in safari if javascript is disabled, so it would seem to be something javascript related that is causing the issue.
Because it beachballs safari i can't even debug the issue in safari.
This site was working in Safari before, I beleive this issue started with the latest Safari update, but don't hold me to that.
I need help figuring out what the issue is so I can fix it for Safari users.
Since it bricks safari i can't even get far enough to determine what the issue is or set debug points or gleen any helpful information from Safari about why this may be happening.
I might be forced to hack out sections until i can eliminate/pinpoint the code, but being a magento site that is a very complex and daunting proposition.
Please help!!! Please, please, pretty please. :-)
Pointers? Tips? Ideas on how to track down the issue?
site is: http://bumblebeetoys.com/
(no flash or similar content in this page, this is a standard magento website.)
Many many many thanks to anyone who can help resolve this issue or has any helpful pointers about tracking it down.
Thanks,
Josh

I ran your site with Firefox error console and got the attached, perhaps Safari can't handle these errors. Activity monitor does show Safari in a hard cpu loop while trying to access the site. 'Sample Process' seems to point at a Java Script as the culprit.

What's the point when most browsers are NOT Safari ?

I’m using a Mac of course (since 1996) but also have other browsers installed like Firefox, SeaMonkey & Camino (formerly Mozilla).
Spending MANY hours redesigning my old site, formatting and creating really nice FX that render perfectly on Safari, FAIL to render properly on the aforementioned browsers.
Since most people on the planet are not using Macs or Safari, what is the point of using iWeb08 if the rest of the word cannot see your site as intended? I used to use Mozilla Composer for the last couple of years and I never had any issues with my pages rendering incorrectly...
Try for yourself, visit www.dpkmusic.com on Safari to see what it’s supposed to look like. Then visit it on any other browser. You’ll see what I’m talking about. Unless I’m horribly mistaken and I’m doing something terribly wrong...
I’d appreciate it if some one can let me know if this really is the case. Thanks.
(And yes, I did use the Apple Feedback link already about this matter.)

Out of curiosity, did you shadow the text IN the text box, or the text box itself??? I couldn't figure out why my shadows were too dark and others not when I found that you can do it either (or both) ways. I don't remember now whey I decided the text was better because clearly clicking the box is easier.
Anyway, text shadows & reflections are one thing that do work ok on my web page (my first). I think Georgia which is what I used for body text because I wanted to use something different than Times New Roman for a change but still be 'web friendly' looks weird on the PC/Firefox, kind of moth eaten, although it looks just fine on my Mac/Firefox, might be a resolution issue, I dunno, and the least of my problems right now.
I am also a refugee of the upgrade problem. I just found the solutions here yesterday and plan to work on it today. In my case as a newbie, using a program for newbies, I never encountered the domain.site file while building my entire site so I thought I was backing up when I kept publishing to successive folders to mark my progress. No, I didn't read the Read Me file to back it up when I upgraded, I usually do....
One new thing to mention, I was just checking my fonts to answer your question and clicked on our About Us page (the site is for my lab) and the pics were completely rearranged!!! I moved to another page and back and then they were in correct/matching order. Anybody have this happen???
Best of luck to all, and thanks for all who have done so much problem solving so far.

I can not print from Firefox, but can from all other browsers and applications (such as MS Word, notepad, etc.). I get a print error on the printing monitor like it's a spooling problem.

This is a recent development but I can not print anything from within Firefox. The print functions open normally, it is going to the correct printer which works..I can print from other browsers and applications. It acts like it is spooling and then a print error occurs and it won't print. I closed and reopened Firefox, opened it in safe mode, cleaned out history/cache/cookies, and rebooted twice. Nothing makes any difference. Also tried printing from the print preview which had the same result. I can print from all other browsers and applications without a problem so it must be within Firefox.

Ok, I had a glitch, forced to restart, and lost my train of thought.
Reinstalling iTunes should fix the major issue that might have gone wrong, perhaps your explaination points will disappear and everything will be peachy again.
But if they don't, you can open the XML file in iTunes Folder using a Text edit program to see what the common pathname is to the iTunes Music folder or where your content is located.
If you moved the itunes folder, it needs to go back.
I can't download iTunes to my Vista virtual machine to test it out right now because iTunes is down, so I can't verify the pathname, perhaps your issue and the iTunes being down are related somehow?
You don't want to import all your music again, but it's a option, but you lose all your playlists, that's what I'm trying to recover.
If oyu don't have a whole lot of playlists, then simply select all the explaimation point music and delete, select File from the menu and import your itunes folder again.
