Can't access sites like Twitter, thedailymash

I can't access some sites including Twitter and thedailymash.co.uk. My Windows laptop is working fine on my home broadband and I've tried deleting libraries etc but to no avail. I had it before and it cleared but now it's back again. I've seen others have had similar issues but no one seems to know why?
Any ideas or suggestions? Starting to wonder if I should go back to window as too many of these issues are coming up with Apple and they don't seem bothered about fixing them.

Firefox Version 3.6.16. I get this:
Unable to connect
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at twitter.com.
    *   The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
          moments.
    *   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
          connection.
    *   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
          that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
Safari just gives me:
Safari can’t connect to the server.
Safari can’t open the page “http://www.thedailymash.co.uk/” because Safari can’t connect to the server “www.thedailymash.co.uk”.

  • Java enabled but can't access sites

    I have enabled Java (version 7/21) in Safari/Chrome and Firefox but still can't access sites - they report a "missing Plugin"
    I managed in the past.  What is happening?  any ideas?

    Java is probably not the plugin that is missing. Those sites probably require Flash, which is not installed by default. You can install Flash by downloading it from here:
    http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    As for Java, note that  you really shouldn't have that enabled in your web browser these days. See:
    Java is vulnerable… Again?!

  • Can't access sites with video's on page

    I can't access any site that has video's on page. like ESPN.com for example. Anyone have any idea why?

    That video IS Flash, try Uninstalling what you have now and install Flash 9 Player again ...
    To check what you have installed use this link, it should say "You have version 9,0,115,0 installed"

  • I can't access facebook and twitter in my new macbook pro.

    I can't access twitter or facebook on my mac. I just recently bought my mac two weeks ago but since two days ago it hasn't been able to access twitter nor facebook.I already tried using safari, google chrome or firefox but none of them could access it. It goes to connection time out everytime after I log in. I don't know what to do anymore. I already tried updating the software but no luck.

    Boot up from your install DVD and run "Repair Disk" from the Utility menu.  When done, restart back to your desktop, repair permissions and restart your computer. If the above does not work, try the following: 
    Change your router channel number.  Most times this works & is all you have to do.

  • Can't access site mailbox- Exchange 2013

    Hi
    Please I have been refered to the Exchange 2013 forum Support team by the SharePoint Team to resolve a complex issue that is unfortunately taking quite some time to resolve. I currently manage a Sharepoint 2013 environment. I have a requirement
    to configure and enable the creation of site mailboxes. 
    So, I have Sharepoint 2013 installed on A.contoso.com which has all the user accounts( Account Forest). As a means of using the Sharepoint 2013 site mailbox feature, another domain( resource domain) called B.contoso.com has been created. Exchange 2013 has
    been setup on B.contoso.com. All the lengthy services on Sharepoint and Exchange 2013 have been configured. A two way trust has been established between both domains. I am able to access resources both ways. On the other hand, when ever I or a user tries to
    access a site mailbox it prompts that a mailbox has been created and then takes you to the OWA page of which login credentials don't work. I'm having to now create a linked mailbox and specify the users account in the accounts domain in order to enable a user
    login to the created site mailbox. Furthermore, When, I access Exchange management Center I don't see the site mailboxes listed. I only see the linked mailboxes for the account holders. I am only able to view the site mailboxes through powershell. 
    Please, I would appreciate it if anyone can help.
    Dominic

    looks as if there are not many exhange 2013 experts around. Please could you someone look into my question.

  • Domain name can't access site.

    Anticipating the end of MobileMe web-hosting, I transferred my site to MacHighway in October. I  notified my domain name registrar of the change of site instructing them to update my name-servers to ns1.machighway.com and ns2.machighway.com. Unfortunately, when I type my domain name - www.jamesrichards.eu - into Google 'The_Bog-House_Miscellany/Welcome.html' is automatically added which brings up the error message:
    'The requested URL /The_Bog-House_Miscellany/Welcome.html was not found on this server. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.'
    In order to access the site using my domain name I have to delete 'The Bog-House…' etc and paste in 'The_Pool_of_Narcissus/Welcome.html'. There is no problem accessing the site using the MacHighway address: http://terri.machighway.com/~jamesric/The_Pool_of_Narcissus/Welcome.html. At one time, when I was finding it impossible to upload my main site I did attempt to upoad another  of my sites, The Bog House Miscellany to MacHighway's servers. However, their support team removed all my files in order to try to solve my problems uploading. I have contacted them about the problem with accessing the site from the domain name and they replied as follows:
    James,
    Your index.html page is pointing to: http://jamesrichards.eu/The_Bog-House_Miscellany/Welcome.html This means that either the correct index.html file is not being uploaded, or that the file itself contains incorrect code.
    I wish we could solve this for you, however, at this point the faster solution would be to contact Apple directly as they are going to be the experts in using iWeb. You could also try searching through or posting in the Apple discussion forums as there are many iWeb users there who may also be able to help you out as well. https://discussions.apple.com/
    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    This URL...
    http://terri.machighway.com/~jamesric/The_Pool_of_Narcissus/Welcome.html.
    is the path to a specific file so it will load in the browser.
    When a visitor enters ...
    domain-name.com
    into the browser, it looks for an index.html.
    Normally, the first page of a website has this name but, due to the way iWeb creates sites, the index.html is created as a redirect to the first page - the one at the top of the list in the left column in iWeb.
    iWeb creates two index.html files - one outside the folder containing the rest of the files and one inside.
    If you upload more than one site to a single user account, the site whose external index.html resides in the root folder is the one that will open when the domain name is entered into the browser. Subsequent sites require the folder name like this...
    domain-name.com/folder-name/
    For the iWeb FTP to work properly and upload more than one site to a single account, the sites have to be on the same domain file. Otherwise the external index.html file for one site will get overwritten by the next when its uploaded and the main site will become a sub site. This is, more or less, the same as uploading to MobileMe.
    I prefer a multi user account where each site has its own root folder and, therefore, its own IP address so that a visitor only has to enter the "domain-name.com" into the browser to get ot any one.

  • Can't Access Site Via FTP

    I'm not sure if this is an issue related to my Airport Extreme or my Virgin Superhub...
    I have a Superhub that is set to modem mode connected to my AE and there are a couple of websites that I am unable to access via FTP. (I use Transmit as I'm on OSX 10.7.4 and am able to connect to several other websites.) I have only noticed this recently, and can only think it may have been since the 10.7.4 update.
    When I am NOT using the AE and the Superhub supplies my wi-fi I CAN connect to these sites. Does anyone know what may be causing the issue?

    It can take quite a long time to publish a site. Mine takes more than an hour. And I don't see anything moving in the publishing wheel for about twenty minutes, then slowly the clockwork starts moving. Depending on the size of your site you may have to let it publish (and don't let your mac go to sleep while it is publishing) for more than an hour.

  • Javascript 32 (I think) bit Intel Mac Can't Access Sites.

    I don't know what's going on. I've the proper version of Flashplayer installed and working but cannot access YouTube or Facebook through Safari or Firefox. The error message I get on YouTube is that I must not have FlashPlayer or Javascript on my computer but I know the error cannot be with Flashplayer as I am running version 9.0_124 on Leopard.
    Even when I try to access the Adobe website the page is displayed incorrectly. If anybody knows what's going on and how to remedy this, I'll buy them a cold one.
    Message was edited by: mmccoleman

    Some users have mentioned that the latest Flash Player (v.9.0.115.0) conflicts with Leopard, and that they have needed to revert to v. 9.0.47. This can be downloaded from here:

    You can try clearing Safari and see if that fixes the problem.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data or Cache. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
