Apple website failing to load

Is anyone having issues with loading the Apple website from firefox or safari from a PC. This is an on going issue. What is the solution? I'm tired of looking at the wheel continuously spinning.

If they are you'll probably find them in the Safari forums, as this forum is for troubleshooting Apple Software Update for Windows, a software package for Windows designed to update Apple products that run on Windows, and not related to your question.

Websites failing to load, games lag, but connectio...

Hello,
Hoping someone here might be able to help me out with this one. For the past few days now some web pages havbe been failing to load and games are occasionally disconnecting. However the entire time our connection seems to be remaining stable and connected.
It appears to happen for no reason, and it only affects some websites. bbc.co.uk, google search, and these Broadband forums. Other sites will load perfectly fine, including both the BT speedtest and the ookla speedtest (both of which show our internet speed & ping to be perfectly fine.
I'm at a loss as to what could be causing this issue. I've set the DNS settings in my network adaptor to google DNS to see if that makes a difference, but the fact it affects online gaming in the form of lag makes me thing this is not the case.
I'm hoping to try a traceroute the next time the issue happens, and hopefully have it complete. The problem is by the time we confirm a non-working site and get part way through the traceroute the problem seems to fix itself so we cannot get confirmation of where the issue is coming from.
I'm wondering if anyone else is having similar problems, or has maybe had a similar problem in the past and can suggest any steps or tests I can take to find/remedy this problem?

nothing has been posted here about it have you checked the service status page or the status phone line 08001690199 and see if there is any problems in your area

Apple websites will not load

Hello!
Is anyone else having trouble loading Apple websites on their MBP since the launch of Mountain Lion? I don't understand, my MBP will not load Apple Store websites or the Apple Community Website, however my iPhone works seemlessly.
Please help!
Also moone has seemed to be able to suggest why the 'tabs' section at the top of Safari is not loading open tabs on my iPhone.
I must be having some really bad luck with ML.

They are Google's public DNS server addresses (the ones I posted were from the "Open DNS" project). They handle domain names (like apple.com), which always has an IP number associated:
so if you go to http://17.149.160.49 you'll arrive at http://www.apple.com and vice versa.
Usually your ISP has their own and sends the addresses to your router (or you can fill them in yourself, or use Open DNS or Google' DNS instead), which in your case didn't seem to work too well. The Wikipedia article on Google should give you a rough idea.

Some websites fail to load page on safari

Two websites, Twitter and my bank fail to load properly. The page starts to load then hangs when the blus bar is about a quarter of the way across the address bar. The fault is intermittant - sometimes the page loads fine - and it doesn't seem to be the site as if I use another mac the problem is not replicated on it and the page comes up. I have cleared the cache etc and it doesn't seem to help. Any ideas anyone?

You can try resetting Safari using the option under the Safari menu. You might not want to reset everything, so I suggest looking at the options.

Websites fail to load unless https

Hi,
Using either Chrome or Safari many websites will fail to load unless I manually change the protocol from http to https.
If I don't - I almost always get:
I have tried both a wired and a wireless connection and also flushing my dnscache.
Any help or thoughts would be appreciated.

Also if it helps debug:
It fails to load a jquery file: http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.2/jquery.min.js
But it works when I do: https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.2/jquery.min.js
I tried the port scan utility and it shows (if I just do: http://ajax.googleapis.com)
However, I tried an external port checker and that failed:

Apple website won't load on my MacBook Pro

I cannot connect to www.apple.com or any variation of it on my MacBook Pro Retina on either Chrome or Safari. I receive message that says I am not connected to the internet, however every other website opens just fine. I can access Apple from my iPad and my Windows PC on the same network connection. I have no clue what the issue is or how to resolve it. Any suggestions? I am current on all updates.

Double-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, then copy it to the Clipboard (command-C):
www.apple.com
Launch the Network Utility application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Network Utility in the icon grid.
Step 1
Select the Lookup tab and paste into the address field (command-V). Press return. Post the output that appears below – the text, please, not a screenshot.
Step 2
Select the Ping tab and do the same. Please enter the same input as you did in Step 1. Don't use the output of Step 1 as input to Step 2.
Important Note
Some web browsers and mail clients will automatically convert a domain name such as "www.example.com" to a clickable URL, such as http://www.example.com. That will interfere with the test. If necessary, edit the input in the Network Utility window to remove any added characters.

Firefox 3.5 for Mac not loading Apple Website

Just wondering why the Apple website won't load at all in Firefox 3.5 for Mac. It works fine in Safari. But not at all in Firefox. It's the only website I know that flat out won't load in Firefox. I want my movie trailers back.

Works just fine here for me. Maybe there's something broken in your Firefox installation. Try deleting it and downloading a fresh copy.

Smart Menus fail to load fully since update to ff33 ok with all other browsers.

Thanks Pete

Thanks for your reply cor-el. I had never heard of nor seen the pref network.http.max-connections until I read about it in some of the replies in this support forum. People were saying 256 was the old setting and a new setting of 48 would correct my problem. When I followed the instructions to get to - see - and change the setting I discovered that my network.http.max-connections was already set to 48. I never did this. The only way I can think of that this setting was changed is that it happened by an automatic update to my Firefox browser. So, the problem I have was probably happening while this setting was at 48 all along. It is still set at 48 and I am still having the same problem. I will try as you suggest and set it to 30 and see what happens. I'll let you know the results. That's again for your response.

ITunes fails to load. Message is Service Apple Mobile Device failed to start. Verify you have sufficient privileges to start system services. Never had this problem before trying to install this upgrade

iTunes fails to load. Message is "Service Apple Mobile Device failed to start. Verify you have sufficient privileges to start system services." Never had this problem before trying to install this upgrade. How do I fix this?

Dave, same problem here. And I did go in as admin to Administrative Tools, Services, Apple Mobile Devices and tried restarting the service. It seems there is a bug with the newest update, period. All of the normal "easy" steps don't work. Before I remove all of Apple's programs, including Bonjour....I'm running a full system scan.
But the answer will be to remove all of the Apple stuff, then reboot, then use whatever utility you have to remove all temp files...then go download and install it again. This has worked for several people (I read the thread before posting). Win 7 64bit. It just seems that Apple did not thoroughly test this new version. Period.
If Apple reads this...I have many computers...and whenever Apple wants to update something...it just about stops everything else that is going on. Total memory hog, even with 16G RAM and dual quad core processors. It has to learn to play nice with others.
After the scan and I'm sure an hour or two of work...I'll re-post.
Of course if you do image back-ups, as I do, you can simply restore your drive to its previous state and run the previous version of iTunes, declining the update, until Apple gets it right. Depending on the size of your drive, this could take hours. It is a matter of choice, of course.

I am upgrading from Tiger to Snow Leopard. I keep getting an error when I try to load the Mac Os x update combined. It says that it was corrupted during download. Have try loading from Apple website V10.6.7 upgrade combined but it still won't do it?

I have an Intel Desktop iMac and I am upgrading from Tiger to Snow Leopard. I keep getting an error when it tries to load the Mac OS X update combined. It says that it was corrupted during download. Have try loading from Apple website Mac OS X V10.6.7 upgrade combined but it still won't do it? Any other suggestions. The printer is not working either - I am not sure if they are connected. Everything else is fine.

Please excuse, but I have to ask an obvious question: Did you already update using the Snow Leopard Retail install DVD? (You must do this first; 10.6.7 is just an update if you already have 10.6.) Are you, then, trying to update from whatever version was on the install DVD to 10.6.7?
Otherwise, I'd keep trying. The 10.6.7 Combo is a huge update.

Firefox fails to load websites after using Thunderbird

When using my new laptop HP Pavilion dm 1, Windows 7 Home Premium, Firefox 4 fails to load any websites after I have used Thunderbird v3.1.9. The only solution is to reboot which is becoming very annoying. I use Firefox 4 and Thunderbird on 3 HP Desktops using Windows 7 Pro without this problem occurring. I have uninstalled Firefox and Thunderbird and then reinstalled and the problem persists. I even did a complete recovery of the laptop starting fresh as it came from the factory and the problem continues. I have disabled and erased all history. I have tried safe mode. Nothing seems to work. I did note on laptop that default manager 2.2 is not enabled (comes up false in troubleshooting log)...not sure if that's a problem as I am traveling in Dubai and cannot match it against my desktop settings. So long as I do not open Thunderbird I have no problems with Firefox. Could there be some kind of conflict between these programs?

Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache in such cases.
* Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
* Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
* Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)

Apple Website is failing?

Why can I not access the Apple website at home, at work or at my university? I am trying to find a form were I can request support regarding iTunes but I cannot browse further then a knowledge database. All other pages and specially regional ones are not even working. And no this is not a issue with my connection, it is a issue with Apple. Fix it please, so I can re-download my iTunes purschases because iTunes failed in restoring my recovery image.
Regards,
David

Where are you located? The Apple website is working fine here in Florida.

IMac won't boot - Failed to load extension com.apple.driver.applemacriscAGP

Hello, so I have an iMac G4 17" (running 10.4) and it was unfortunately not connected to a very good surge protector. The power surged and a fuse blew and now when I try starting it up it chimes and then just sits at the gray screen with the apple logo. Here's what I've tried:
Booting into verbose and single-user modes, this is what happens:
Failed to load extension com.apple.driver.applemacriscPCI
Couldn't alloc class AGP
Still waiting for root device
Still waiting for root device
Still waiting for root device etc.
Booting into Open firmware mode:
I'm able to do everything just fine, including resetting the nvram
Resetting PRAM:
Works fine, chimes when appropriate
Starting from Tiger install DVD:
Works just fine, I'm able to access all the utilities and was able to copy files off to a flash drive with the terminal. I used Disk Utility to repair the drive and repair the permissions, both of which ran successfully. I did a clean install of Tiger and then repaired the drive and permissions. I selected the new install on the hard drive as the default start-up disk. Still it sits at the gray screen and I still get those same errors in Verbose and Single-User modes.
I found the source code (a cpp file) for the com.apple.driver.applemacriscPCI, but don't really know how to compile it and what headers are necessary etc, and even if I did I don't know where I would put it since the problem can't be on the hard drive after I did a clean install. I have not yet tried completely reformatting the drive before an install but doesn't the installer do that anyway?
Any help would be much appreciated.

There may be some circuit damage in the computer; due to the surge of power.
Sometimes, a computer and its owner get lucky and when a surge disables a
Macintosh, a reset of the Power Management Unit (PMU) can help restore the
normal functions. Often, when this works, the computer may not go past the
grey screen at all, until the PMU is reset.
Instead of a simple surge protector, my computers are powered through a
backup power supply; an uninterruptable power unit with battery backup.
These also have automatic voltage regulation. Forget common protectors!
On the iMac G4 series, the PMU reset button is under the metal plate on the
bottom and is hard to see. There may be instructions with images available
online, perhaps in Apple Support's knowledge-base. This would also be in
the official service manual in pdf electronic documentation, for a tech repair.
How to reset PMU in iMac G4:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1712
You may have to see if the Apple Hardware Test can show error codes and
other hints of hardware damages; and perhaps a tech visit is not far off...
Good luck & happy computing!

Live Bookmark Feed failed to load. I cannot view any footage on BBC News site. Also I can no longer view images I have uploaded to a website. This has all materialised overnight. Please help.

I have been uploading pictures of booksd to ABE.com for ages. I am able to view these images on the site. Today, without warning, I am unable to do this. Coincidentally, I note that I can no longer view film footage on the BBC news pages. The Latest Headlines column is also showing "Live Bookmark Feed failed to load". Please help.

If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.
*Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
*Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
*Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions"
*Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).
If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
Make sure that you do not block third-party images permissions.default.images
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load
There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images.

FireFox images not loading in local folders (firebug error-Failed to load given URL)

I am having difficulty when developing websites in local folders (Windows7 computer). The webpages I make are showing images in IE9 & Chrome but not FireFox (nor Safari nor Opera).
In FireFox I get Firebug "Failed to load given URL" prompt.
I am using html5 & external linked css stylesheet & the html/html5 & css code validates.
I have tried using rel path ie images/image.gif & absolute path references ie C:/RPD_Programming/RPD WEB/amwcsnew/index.html
and have tried using % to eliminate whitespace in references but I cannot get FireFox to display images!!
This has been a problem for me for around 2 weeks now & is very frustrating. Some website code/templates I have downloaded from the internet display the websites properly (ie load images fine) when I open them locally in FireFox. Why does my code not allow the images to load in FireFox (paths/permissions/other issue??). How can I fix this?
Here is example css & html5 not displaying images from local directory in FireFox (fine in IE9 & Chrome):
style.css
/* CSS Document */
/*Basic Reset*/
margin:0;
padding:0;
html{
/* HTML5 display-role reset for older browsers */

I am most grateful for help & look forward to replies & fixing this-thanks
NB
Is there a FireFox guide/manual in pdf format available anywhere? I have not found one yet & a FireFox reference might be useful!

You need to use file:// as the protocol instead of C:/. The latter may never work (C:\ might).
Where is the main HTML located ?
Easiest if to store the images in a sub folder of the location because you can't go back via ../ beyond that root location for security reasons.
