Can not load Crate and Barrel to save my life!

I found a post over on the Safari board that speaks to an identical problem I am having with Crate and Barrel and CB2. No solutions offered there yet. Would appreciate any help!
I started trying to load the site on Sunday and thought it was their site till I phoned yesterday to learn that they had not heard of this issue from anyone else.
I tried a million times in Safari, Firefox, and even downloaded Netscape Navigator to see if that worked. Nada. It is clearly NOT a browser issue.
I've had this system for 10 months of daily/hourly use and have never had this issue with any other web site. It is totally confined to Crate and Barrel and CB2. Any link to any of their sections on their site will not load. The read out says: "waiting for crate and barrel" for a very long time and if I let it go on and on, I think I get the "can't load page, server not responding, can't find page", etc stuff.
I'm not super savvy when it comes to tweaking and experimenting, and not very brave, but it sounds like my experience is identical to the original poster.
I hope someone can offer some clarity and solutions here!
Thanks
MacBook Pro Intel Core 2 Duo Mac OS X (10.4.11)
I should add before anyone asks that I have no memory of visiting either of those sites on this computer in the last ten months. It is probable that this was my first attempt to visit so I have no history of once being able to log on to compare current experiences to.
I am irritated because I need a new couch!!!
What on earth could it be about one retailer site that would be so infuriating for just a few of us?
Thanks in advance!

Well, you probably won't want to hear this, but those sites work fine for me with Safari on 10.4.11 (minus the latest security update, though - why do they always issue those the day after I do a big update to a bunch of other software?).
First off, in Safari, go to the "Window" menu and open up the Activity window. It will show you what components of a page that Safari is trying to load. Maybe it will tell you what's getting hung up. You might need to use the triangle to open up some parts of the page.
Post back with the address from the Activity window if you find something not loading there. And notice how not all of the page components load from the same place, some come from other servers.

  • Can't get panels and preferences to save with MacBook Pro

    I can not get panels and preferences to save using Illustrator CS6 on a MacBook Pro. When I close out of AI the settings/preferences don't stay. Please help.
    Thank you

    Have you tried rebuilding preferences?
    Working in a new user account?
    Workspaces are saved in your local user folder. If workspaces are not saved, this could be problems with either Illustrators preferences in general or your user account.

  • Recently updated Mac OS 10.5.8 to 10.6.8 and and can not open exisiting Illustrator5 files or save new files.

    I recently updated my MacBook Pro OS from 10.5.8 to 10.6.8 and can not open existing Illustrator5 files or save new files can someone help?

    I think you have a corrupted upgrade. Do you have a backup of your old system?
    Here's what you should do for now:
    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

  • Can not load help information, so I can not save my work?

    I have been working on this vi for about an hour.
    When I try to save I ge an error that says "Can not load help information of find_resources.vi"
    So it will not let me save it.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi James,
    That error is usually indicative that the VI is unfortunately corrupt. I'm sorry that you had to spend some time rewriting your code. I wanted to provide some information that I found in case you ran into anything like this again in the future.
    If "Select All" then copying to a VI does not work, that is usually a good sign that the VI is corrupt. At that point, there is not much you can do except possibly look at the recovery VIs that LabVIEW saves. If the VI is there, you can try moving it out of the recovery directory and opening it. The location for the autosave directory varies depending on how your system is set up, but it is typically located in your Documents folder > LabVIEW Data > LVAutoSave. For more information on how LabVIEW autosave works, take a look at this KnowledgeBase article.

    Dan,
    The only safe way is to erase the volume and reinstall SL.  Then use setup assistant to migrate your data from a Snow Leopard Time machine or clone backup.

  • I have a problem that I can not load or even close the download in iTunes, it turns out I have hanging in the mode, and because of that I can't download from AppStore, because it turns out that the other programs I have on standby. What do I do? Thank you

    I have a problem that I can not load or even close the download in iTunes, it turns out I have hanging in the mode, and because of that I can't download from AppStore, because it turns out that the other programs I have on standby. What do I do? Thank you.

    If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.
    If that doesn't work:
    •  Log out of your iTunes store account.  Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
    • Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
    • After restart, the Waiting should be gone.
     Cheers, Tom

  • Facebook is not loading properly and all my text and images are lined up along the right side of the page. How can this get fixed to the way it use to be?

    Everyone who logs into Facebook on my Firefox has this problem however if we use Internet Explorer - facebook looks normal.

    If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" as a high value can cause issues like you described.

    *Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"

    I suspect you have the original, 1G iPod touch. Those can only go as high as iOS 3.1.3,
    If y ohave a 2G those can go as high as 4.2.1
    Identifying iPod models
    To update
    The Settings>General>Software Update comes with iOS 5 and later.
    Connect the iPod to your computer and update via iTunes as far as your iPod model allows
    iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    A 2G to 4.2.1. Requires iTunes version 10.X. If a Mac it requires OSX 10.5.8 or later.
    To more easily find compatible apps:
    iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
    Vintapps 3.1.3 - paid app.
    Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.

  • My problem is a sudden loss of ability to get to PSE12 Organizer when I tried to load a saved scan. Had been using the Organizer and the Editor with no problems for several hours just before that.     Can not load the Organizer from the icon at the bottom

    My problem is a sudden loss of ability to get to PSE12 Organizer when I tried to load a saved scan. Had been using the Organizer and the Editor with no problems for several hours just before that.  
    Can not load the Organizer from the icon at the bottom of  Editor screen, from the icon on the MacBook Air dock (OS 10.10.2),  nor from the file in applications located with Finder.
    I have tried without success to access Organizer after turning off and on the scanner, turning off and on the computer, loading a fresh copy of PSE12 from the CD, and restoring default preferences.  I have searched on line for other options but not  found any. 
    Can you help me?

    You don't see drives when using a hardware RAID only the volumes.
    WD Green are not suitable for hardware RAID (or software RAID for that matter).
    USB2 and TimeMachine are a disaster waiting to happen. I've used SATA (internal) and eSATA (using SATA PCIe cards) trouble-free.
    I can't say I begin to understand your use or "choosing the install drive for the backup"
    Install what?
    You don't load TimeMachine. Maybe seems minor but that is not how to describe the behavior of software.
