Blocked From Accessing My Own Website CMS

Hi, I wonder if anyone can shed some light on an odd problem which arose out of the blue two days ago. I operate two iMacs (new types) on a network, with Leopard 10.5.2. We have ADLS broadband, and network using an Airport Express. I have several websites, one of which has a cpanel and is set up with a CMS on the server - to access this, I need to log in to the administrator using a user name and a password. On Sunday afternoon, while working in the CMS online, my admin session suddenly expired and since then I have not been able to log into my own website to work on it. Oddly, my husband's user name and password is also being blocked. Yet, even more oddly, when I log in using either username and password on my husband's iMac, there is no problem! The message from my website is that the username and password are incorrect. I have to use Firefox to work on my website, so after restarting my Mac, I emptied the cache on Firefox, deleted the passwords in key chain, and when none of this work I deleted my old version of Firefox and downloaded a new version. All to no avail. As my husband's computer is able to access the site, I assume that the Airport isn't the problem, but there is something going awry in my Mac. I have had my webmaster check that my Mac IP isn't being blocked by my website - which I think would exclude my Mac from accessing it - but she says everything is fine at her end. She is also not Mac savvy, so if the problem lies in my Mac she can't help. Can anyone suggest anything???

Have you tried clearing ALL private data? It's under the tools menu and make sure you check cookies and saved passwords as well. It could quite likely be pulling credentials from a cookie stored on your machine or from a saved password if FF does not use the keychain (I cant remember if it does).
As an extra troubleshooting test if this doesnt work, you could try either logging into another account, or if none is available create a temporary account to log into and test it from there. This would indicate a preference problem most likely and you could then clear the problem files from your home directory's library.

  • Blocked from viewing my own website!

    This morning my website went live via a GoDaddy domain name I'd purchased, my MobileMe account and iweb'08. All was working fine and I was merrily updating the site and publishing the changes. I was viewing my website using the latest versions of Safari and Firefox on my MacBook Pro and also via IE on my dad's PC. After about an hour of work on my site...Firefox and Safari suddenly started directing me to a GoDaddy parking page and not my website. However, I could still view my website on my dad's PC. I've just checked on my Dad's Mac too using Safari and Firefox on there and I can view it fine. So, why has my laptop seemingly been blocked from viewing my own website? Any ideas?

    Hi Tom. Thanks a lot for the reply. I just went to check before posting and both browsers are now letting me view my site from my laptop. Maybe my IP had been blocked because I was viewing the site such a lot this morning whilst tinkering with it. Who know's?! I did also write to godaddy about it.
    If it happens again, I'll be sure to put the url and .me details.

  • Updated to Lion and can't access my own website?

    I recently update to Lion and now I can't access my own website, no matter what browser I use.
    I can access the site fine from my work PC, but can't from home and this started after I updated to Lion.
    Help?

    And it all worked fine until I updated to Lion.
    Any help you can provider would be very helpful.  My host is claiming they can access it fine so they aren't able to help.  They verified my IP isn't blocked on their end.
    And I can access it straight away in Safari.Do you have any anti-virus or third party programs, especially secrity related installed?
    Can you access any other sites you regularly go to?
    Is your Wordpress program up to date to be compatable with Lion (check developer's site)

  • Can't Access My Own Website when using TMobile phone as Modem

    I am using my Nokia 5310 as a bluetooth modem through TMobile on my MacBook. When I try to access my own website, it redirects me to a address that says, "Great Success! Apache is working on your website..." and so on. However, when I disconnect the modem and use my airport bluetooth connection I can get to my site immediately. I've tried rebooting my MacBook, pulling the battery out of the phone, refreshing the browser, emptying the cache, all to no avail. I called Tmobile and got their "Tier 3" people who said it's not from their side but could not give me any real reason it's doing this. They reconfigured my settings to see if that would work but it didn't.
    I can access all other sites but my own website. I tried Firefox and got the same conclusion.
    If it's the computer why would I be able to get to my site when I use my airport? If it's the phone, why would I be able to access the site through the web browser on my phone?
    Does anyone have any suggestions on how to correct this problem? Thanks in advance for your help!

    Hi halacious, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    Airport & Bluetooth are two separate Interfaces, so that is a bit confusing.
    Where is this Website hosted? Locally on your own machine, or on the Internet?
    Any Router involved there?

  • GT70 Application has been blocked from accessing Graphics hardware

    I have a GT70 with a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 675m, have Windows 8.1 on it. Last month I had an issue where the video card freaked out and started to throw blue screens at me, had it taken in they fixed it and reinstalled the drivers and cleaned out the inside of the laptop which had dust inside, I would love to do it quite frankly I have no idea what the insides of a laptop like this look like.
    So after I got my laptop back I had drivers 344.75 installed on it, then went to watch a video on YouTube and all of a sudden the video freezes while the sound still played. Then in the lower right hand corner it said Display driver stopped responding and has recovered under it said, Display driver NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 344.75 stopped responding and has successfully recovered after that the small thing popped up saying Application FlashPlayerPlu has been blocked from accessing Graphics hardware over and over again I got so tired that I went to the customize option to make that thing disappear from popping up, but the error kept coming and coming so much that it created hundreds of warning errors in the Event Viewer. So the only thing I could do was restart my computer.
    Figured that updating my graphics card to the latest driver would help, which is 347.52. But whenever I watched YouTube on Firefox it would do the same thing, it wasn't just the Flash Player plugin either it was other programs like VidCoder I haven't seen what other programs did it. It just feels so frustrating because I don't want to take this laptop into get repaired again to the local computer place. I think it might be a software issue since the computer seems to work fine when it's not using the NVIDIA GPU, I started watching YouTube using Google Chrome and not Firefox. I haven't really gamed on it in a while but now afraid to play games on it that it might break the video card or crash. Has anyone out there seen such a problem?
    I've looked all over the Internet and people say that maybe the GPU is being overclocked but I don't even know what or how to search to see if it is. How can it be overclocked when using simple programs or websites like YouTube? I have also heard that most of these problems are cause of Windows 8.1 but can I even down grab back to regular Windows 8? I wish I had Windows 7 on this laptop but it came with Windows 8 and kept hearing that it's dangerous to downgrade the laptop to Windows 7.
    Thanks if anyone can help out with this issue.

    I am really hating Windows 8 & 8.1 all together. But I took it into the shop this past Monday to figure out maybe they can fix it. Since I still have the two month warranty with the shop I can take it in and won't have to continue paying more money. When I got it back they said something about the files or drivers were corrupt and they reinstalled them. Went home played Unturned on Steam for like 15 to 20 minutes, game froze like it did with No More Room in Hell. Giving me that same error Application unturned.exe has been blocked from accessing graphics hardware, over and over every three seconds. I shut down the laptop for the night and turned it on about an hour ago and the error message kept popping up like twice then finally stopped.
    I went over to NVIDIA's forum a couple of days ago and someone with a GT70 and GTX 675m card is having almost the same issue as me which is crazy, then saw another person with a 675m saying that it's unstable that the GPU usage exceeds 2000% and freezes. Do you think that it might be some sort of update that is causing the cards to just mess up? It's strange that within a few weeks three people including myself have issues with the card acting strange. I haven't gone with factory restoring my laptop yet, been trying not to go down that road unless it's needed. Also I hear Windows 10 is coming out in the summer and I'm iffy about just upgrading hoping the problem will go away or is Windows 10 is just as dangerous as Windows 8.
    I am also wondering if I was to downgrade to Windows 7 will it also erase my MSI factory recovery partition for Windows 8 on the drive?

  • HT1349 I have purchased a new PC and am being blocked from accessing my itunes account why ???

    I have purchased a new PC and am being blocked from accessing my itunes account why???

    You are being blocked how ?
    If you mean that your library isn't showing then it won't automatically appear on it. You can authorise your iTunes account on it via the Store > Authorise This Computer menu option (with iTunes 11 pressing Alt-S should get the Store menu to appear). You will then need to either download your content onto it (what you can re-download will show under Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage), or copy if from your old computer or your backup.
    If you are referring to something else ... ?

  • Ulitmate Poker blocked from accessing my geolocation

    I am a long time customer of Verizon and a new customer of Ultimate Poker. I am outraged that Verizon has blocked Ultimate Poker from accessing my geo-location even though they have my permission to do so. Everyone in the word (Google) has access to my location. Ultimate Poker is legal in Nevada as long as they can verify my physical location in Nevada via my cell phone. All the other carriers allow this--not Verizon. Time to look at ATT.

    Discussions of moderator actions on the boards. If you need to comment on a moderator action, please private message any administrator/moderator;
    First off, nowhere in my discussion does it say I want to play online poker on my cell phone. It would have to be on a desktop or laptop computer.
    Second, your assumption is incorrect regarding AT&T, Sprint and T-Mobile. These wireless carriers do allow the triangulation of their phones to UltimatePoker.com. As it pertains to this discussion, It is necessary for this legitimate  Nevada based poker website to prove to the Nevada Gaming Commission that:
    1) Prospective online poker players are playing on a desktop or laptop computer with an IP Address located in the State of Nevada.
    2) Prospective online poker players are physically here in the State of Nevada while playing online poker on Ultimate Poker website. This is proven via your wireless cell phones GPS.
    Third, you are assuming if a phone's GPS has been set up to allow triangulation, it should be giving your GPS whereabouts to the poker server. One would think this is a true statement. The Smart Phones of today, such as my HTC Thunderbolt, do have GPS Location Services provided by Verizon and Google. Unfortunately, the issue we Verizon customers are having is that Verizon Wireless themselves are blocking our GPS Signal to UltimatePoker.com, whereas other carriers are not.
    Forth, I do not have to take it up with the poker website. They have done their due diligence to legally offer online poker playing on their website to any person 21 years or older. The person must allow their physical location to be verified through their cell phone's GPS Locator via the Location Based Service Ultimate Poker uses to triangulate location. Also, the IP Address from the prospective player's computer would need to be physically located in the Stare of Nevada while they are playing.
    Fifth, you are speaking about a whole different subject in regards to what Websites Verizon chooses to grant/block access or guarantee any rights to. Your statement has nothing to do with this discussion. We are talking about Verizon preventing their own customer's GPS Location and cell phone number from being verified by a Location Based Service on behalf of a legitimate online gaming website. F.Y.I, Verizon does not prevent their customers from viewing porn and gaming websites over their network. It's up to apps or software such as Anti-Spyware, Anti-Virus, or Parental Controls to block these types of websites. However, Verizon will block a website if they receive complaints regarding objectionable material or photographs of a sexual nature involving underage children.
    Sixth and final, your sarcastic statement regarding "How much you pay each month does not get you any perks other customers are not getting" is out of line and tries to put words into my mouth. You have taken what I said out of context. I don't think I'm above anyone or are owed any special rights or privileges. On the same token, Verizon Customers, such as myself, should not have to issue ultimatums to the carrier they have long defended and remained loyal to for the past several years. However, if Verizon keeps preventing their customers the right of playing legalized online poker, they may leave us no choice but to sign up with a different carrier. That doesn't mean it would be enjoyable or fun for me to do so, let alone give up all of the UNLIMITED DATA I receive for $24.90 a month.
    Thanks for reading. I hope this helps other Verizon customers who may of had questions regarding this issue.

  • Can't access my own website and manage it using Safari!! Very annoying! _

    If anyone can help me or give me an answer that would be great and highly appreciated! I am new to Mac!!!
    I am having trouble accessing my own online shop as Safari doesn't support Java Script or something like that (i know nothing about it)? I can see it but once logged into the site to manage it, the buttons wont click (am I making sense?)
    Even accessing Ebay is giving me trouble as well!!! Like I can't see what I am posting and how it looks in Ebay when writing up the description!! I have to use either Firefox or IE on another computer to write them and post them. I am really getting mad!!!! Can someone give me a solution??
    Please I need help desperately!!

    Hi
    Welcome to Apple Discussions and Mac Computing
    Safari does support Javascript. However, it's possible the coding for your Online shop is using a version of JS not compatible with Safari and possibly the Mac Platform.
    To be sure Safari is set up to access JS content, go to your Safari Menu (next to the Apple logo in the upper left of your monitor)>Preferences (a short cut for preferences for most applications is pressing the Command and , keys). When Safari Preference opens, click on the Security panel (if you don't see multiple panels listed, click on the small pill button in the upper right of the Preference panel). Make sure the 4 WebContent boxes are checked.
    Try your web site. If no success, post the URL of your web site here and I'll be glad to try it.
    eBay is a different story. The site is not the friendliest for Safari due to their odd approach to site coding, especially for Sellers. From what others have posted in this forum, using Firefox is a better alternative when listing/posting product.
    Safari is quite strict about following industry standards promulgated by the Web Standards Project. In part, this endeavor strives to create uniformity and better security on the Internet through specific guidelines for site coding.
    Unfortunately, sloppy coding practices exist on some sites, creating functional challenges for browsers. Also, as Microsoft's Internet Explorer is used by a majority of PC owners (certainly not because it's a quality product), some web developers tend to code sites specific to IE without considering whether other browsers can render the content. Besides being very short-sighted, this type of work devalues the use of the Internet as a viable and secure structure for communication and commerce.
    The good news about owning a Mac is the lack of viruses, spy and malware, and poorly constructed operating systems such as Windows Vista and XP. Working around Mac-bias, when encountered, is the primary challenge.

  • Having Problems Accessing my own Website!

    Hello there,
    I had a very strange problem today.  I run a website (http://jag35.com) which I hosted for free on Byethost.com 
    I usually access this from home no problems, for about a year now, today when I tried to call it on my browser (safari on an iMac) it timed out.  Server didn't respond, so I thought my free host of course is down.  
    So to quickly test this I checked another site that I also host on with the same company under the same account (http://vdslruser.com) and that pulled up just fine, so I thought it was strange already.  This lead lead me to check my Who's Online account, basically a small widget that tells you who's online at this moment watching your website (http://whos.amung.us/stats/n3u5yoc1plgi/) this widget tells me that there are people on my website, it even tells me which pages they are one, which makes this situation even more strange.  Other can view my website, but I can't for some reason.
    I immediately thought it was my computer of course.  So I restart my computer, clear out my cache & cookies, flush my DNS cache on my computer, and I still have the same problem, all other pages seem to work just fine, except for my http://jag35.com domain.  I tried the pulling the page on another computer at my house, same problem, then I tried a laptop, same thing.  It's beginning to become even more strange.
    So I restart my router and modem a couple of times, even reset all my settings to make sure the problem isn't there.  Nothing, same problem.  I sent out a twitter message to see if anyone else was having problems viewing my page, everyone says it's fine except for a couple of other people, I then asked those other people who had the same problem, which service provider they were using.  Turned out they were both using Verizon.
    I tried to ping the site and do a trace route and I just keep getting a timeout message, however I also noticed that I get a timed out message on most domains that I try to ping or trace route.  I haven't come up with a solution of figured out where the problem is.  I hope someone that's had the same problem came share some insight  as to what might be a solution.
    I have a feeling, I'm gonna have to change my free host, but I'm just hoping to understand the problem.

    I tried to access your website using a Verizon FiOS connection and it failed.  Running a traceroute suggested that the failure occured after the first hop that did not have "Verizon" in the server name.
    About two hours later I tried and succeeded in accessing your website using a Comcast connection.  It would appear that Verizon has a problem.
    Just for laughs and grins I tried accessing your website using a Verizon DSL connection.  Once again, the connection failed.  Tracert showed the connection failing after first hop without "Verizon" in the server name.  Are you starting to see a pattern here?

  • I just "upgraded" to 6.0. Now I get an "alert" and am blocked from accessing mail. What should I do? Uninstall?

    Here's the "alert"
    Could not initialize the application's security component. The most likely cause is problems with files in your application's profile directory. Please check that this directory has no read/write restrictions and your hard disk is not full or close to full. It is recommended that you exit the application and fix the problem. If you continue to use this session, you might see incorrect application behaviour when accessing security features.

    Migrating a Power PC Mac to an Intel Mac is never a good idea.
    Migrating Final Cut Studio is a bad idea -there are many FCS components in the System and Library folders, and quite a few in folders that are normally hidden from the user. They do not get transferred in a migration, so you end up with an incomplete installation of the applications.

  • Weird wrt54g problem-can't access my own website

    I maintain a website through hosting service go daddy.  I use Frontpage XP to maintain this website.  My computer is WindowsXP pro.  I have the wrt54g version3 router with v4.30.5, Apr. 27, 2006 firmware.  Now for the weird part, I can access all web addresses fine, except for the website I maintain.  If I bypass the router, the website loads perfectly.  If I have the router installed, the website doesn't load at all, or if it does load, it doesn't load correctly.  I have tried resetting the router back to factory defaults,rebooting and praying.  I have called both my ISP and Go Daddy and they both say I am having a router issue. I have called thre of my freinds and they are all able to access the website without any problems.
    Any Ideas?
    DR_K

    Check the MTU on the Status tab. Open a command prompt and ping your website with a packet size 28 lower than the MTU. If your MTU is 1454 then 1454-28=1426. Thus type:
    ping -f -l 1426 www.uawlocal1485.org
    It should go through. Then try to increase the value in the ping by 2.
    ping -f -l 1428 www.uawlocal1485.org
    It should not go through. If the first one does not go through, you have to lower the MTU in the router. Decrease the value in the ping until you find a value that works. Increase that value by 28 and use that as MTU in your router.

  • How can I block a url from accessing my browser?

    I want to block a url from accessing my browser. The url in question, djbsaqja.co.cc, flashed a pop-up saying that my computer was infected with a dangerous virus and that "Windows Security" required that I download a program to fix it.
    I maintain realtime virus protection, but ran a manual scan anyway, which proved that I was clean.
    The url listed above would not let me out of an unending chain of popups, demanding that I download their tool.
    Instead, I opened a new Firefox session (it was the only way I could re-enter Firefox without this rogue url taking control), then cleared out my history, cache and cookies.
    I'm clean...and now I'm back in control with, I believe, no damage. But since I wrote down the url, is there a way that I can block from accessing my browser again?
    Thanks for the help.

    You can add it to your hosts file - http://allthingsmarked.com/2006/08/28/howto-block-websites-using-the-hosts-file
    Sites like that pop up on a regular basis, but will often get taken down quite quickly. I have just checked and the site appears to have been taken down.

  • IP address blocked from signing in to Skype

    Hello everyone.  I have Skype version 6.21.0.104 on my desktop computer and I am now having trouble logging in.  I have done several chats, over the last few days, with Skype customer service and the chat I had with a representative today told me that my IP address is blocked from accessing Skype. The person said I needed to contact the manufacturer.  Does this person mean that I need to contact my internet service provider?  I am a bit confused.  I wonder if I accidentally denied Skype access to the internet.  I had this issue before on my laptop and I had to go in and remove the block, but I do not remember how I did that.  Please help.  I would like to be able to use Skype on my desktop computer again.
    Subject/title edited for clarity.

    I just wanted to let everybody know that the issue has been resolved.  The IP address block has been lifted, my account is no longer restricted, and I can sign on with Skype on my deskopt computer again.
