Can't access youtube or facebook

After upgrading to V35 I could no longer access Google, my other browsers on this computer, IE and Chrome could with no issues.
I uninstalled and reloaded Firefox V35 and now I can reach Google, but have now lost Youtube and Facebook (which are still reachable by the other two browsers). The browser just sits with the trying to connect message before finally dropping back to the page I was on.
I run Avast Antivirus (free) and Comodo Firewall, I've disabled both with no effect.
I have cleared the DNS cache in a command window and still the problem exists.
Any suggestions what could be the cause?

Do you get this message??
Try this your pages could be timing out.
Q: Are you on DSL?
Type in a Bank URL '''about:config''' then press button "I be careful. I promise"
Then in the text box at the top '''network.http.response.timeout'''
it might be set to 300, On the very left side under Value select "Modify"
Change 300 to 300000 and exit out the tab (Just close the tab and try your sites again)

EA4500 - can only access youtube, google at a very slow speed, can not access anyother website

Got a new EA4500 for X'mas
After setting up the new router I could only access youtube and google at a very slow speed, however I can not access anyother website - facebook, yahoo and etc...
it would ping yahoo and google no problem
friend told me to do a tracert some ip address and his conclusion was the router is fully functional
ISP uses PPPoE, Im sure that the username and password are correct.
upgraded to the latest firmware manually, and holy hell accessing the router with no internet access is a pain in the **bleep**!
Please help and Merry X'mas

I've made sure that both the EA4500 setting were the same as the WRT54G, did not solve the problem.
IP Address behind WRT54G is 192.168.1.103
behind modem is 202.151.XX.XX
It might be a DNS problem. Release & renew ip on the status page of your router. Just make sure you are already using the latest Linksys smart wifi firmware, reset the router & reconfigure. You can download the firmware here http://homesupport.cisco.com/en-us/support/routers/EA4500.

Can't access youtube on Mac, no error message - just blank page

I can't access youtube in firefox. There is no error message. I'm using leaopard on a mac.When I type in youtube.com, nothing happens, the page is completely blank. youtube works in safari. other websites work fine. Works in safari, just not firefox.
I tried many of the solutions offered for not being able to access youtube but no solution so far. I have uninstalled flash and realplayer and disabled noscript and some plug-ins and still nothing. If I try to access youtube without these items, I don't even get a page saying that I need the flash plug-in, it's just blank. I have re-installed an older version of flash, 11.2. flash was an still is working fine on other sites, I have re-installed firefox. I have tried things like using html5, nothing works. I have read through these help pages and found nothing that helps so far.
Please help, I have been trying to figure this out for a week and am at my wits end. I need to be able to access youtube in firefox.

Can't access YouTube from my update lists.It shows updated but won't let me open app

HHi,I can't access YouTube or Google+ from my updated apps.
it shows that they are updated,but I am unable to open the app.Also,they have disappeared from my home screen

Usually I could just swipe my finger across the screen and the "delete" option would pop up...instead it starts the show/movie and then gives me the error message. I have tried restarting, I have even tried syncing to my computer. Even though I don't have the computer set to sync any tv shows or movies, those items are still there. I'm noticing the same thing with Podcasts in the separate podcast app and in my itunes app under podcasts. There are several there that I have deleted from my itunes and they still show up on the iphone.

Can't access youtube and google docs.

I can't access some websites, like youtube (I can only see a page with text and links) and google docs (firefox stops downloading like everything is correct, but nothing happens). Allready fully uninstalled (as far as I know, forgot bookmarks, passwords, etc....) firefox from my OSX 10.6. Installed it again and find the same problems. Other browsers have no problem with these websites. thanks. No errors reported by firefox.

If it works through the Ethernet port on the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) it probably has nothing to do with the AEBS. There must be something about the configuration of the computer connecting wirelessly.

Can't access Youtube anymore

Hi folks,
I don't know what's happening but I could go to Youtube and use it to see videos etc. Since last week, I can't even get access to the site. It simply doesn't LOAD (tried with Chromium and Firefox). Tried on Windows today and it worked perfectly. Any idea about what's going on? Any help would be heavily appreciated.
Thanks.
D.

So I can apparently reach youtube, but it takes too long in Firefox or Chromium and it never loads all the page, only few links (no images etc.)
Using a PROXY works 90% (some images don't load).
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Can't access youtube

i have two network LAN and wireless with only one LAN interface in the same subnet and i did rule to allow YouTube from wireless range with only some users , it was working and stoped the users can access youtube but can't watch video , however the
lan range who have access can access and watch . i loged that and found that with wireless range user anonymous so what steps should i do to back to default .
Thanks

Hi,
According to your description, do you want to allow all the users to watch videos or just for some wireless users and all LAN users? I would appreciate it if you
can tell more detailed information about your requirement or post the error message to us.
In addition, if you want to block YouTube videos for LAN users, you need to create outbound deny access rule in the Firewall policy for this specified users and create a new content type set(such as
video/mp4,video/x-flvin,video/x-ms-asf)
in the properties of the rule. For more detailed information, please refer to the link below:

Best regards,

The new user I created can't access YouTube.

I created a new user on my MacBook Pro. This new user appears to be blocked from accessing certain websites, namely YouTube. I have verified that the new user does have the ability to access any website under Parental Controls. The strange part is that while logged on as administrator, these sites are not blocked. Any suggestions?

Only just seen this, I'm in the UK so your original post was at 11 pm UK time
As Demo says, when you use home sharing you need to use the same account on both your computer's iTunes (via the File > Home Sharing menu option), and on your iPad via Settings > Music > Home Sharing . If both the iPad and computer are connected to the same wifi network, and iTunes is open on your computer, you should then get a 'Shared' option under the More button at the bottom of the Music app :
What have you managed to do so far ? Have you enabled home sharing on your computer's iTunes via the File drop-down menu, and if so which account have you used, the old or the new one ? The same account then needs to be used on the iPad as that is what will link them together.
If you can't remember the password for your old account then you might be able to get it reset via this page : http://iforgot.apple.com

Can't access YouTube on ATV in China

I have been unable to watch any YouTube videos since updating my ATV a few days ago.
At first I thought it was a network problem - but I can download movie and TV trailers without any problems.
Then I thought it was a network problem specific to YouTube, but I am able to browse through the YouTube menus and see all the previews.
Then after reading the posts here tried resetting (many times), and logging into my YouTube account, and logging off, and setting my iTunes Store setting to US, and then to UK and then to other countries all in different combinations but no joy.
All I see when I try to watch a video is the feint YouTube logo and the spinning 'wheel' in the bottom left corner as it tries to buffer the video endlessly.
Does anybody else have this problem? I am in China and I thought that it could be a network block, but I can see YouTube videos on my computer without any problem, and also no problem seeing any Apple served content through iTunes or the main Apple site.
Help!!!

wow, thanks for the stunning insight, socalmac! certainly solved the problem for me. all i had to do was go to the apple tv settings and select "communist dictatorship" for location and works like a charm now! for those of you that don't have this location setting, you're really missing some classic must see dictator tv. top 5 youtube videos include: "mao with jedi lightsaber", "a day at the salon with kim jong-il", "ayatollah in cocktail dress" (yes, its black, but he looks good with the pearls), and "bush comedy hour" (looks to be ripped directly from CNN though). my personal favorite is "deng xioaping dunking in a monkey suit" but if you look closely you will see they censored out the trampoline he was using.

Can't access Youtube & other google services with Safari (maps, translate...))

Hello,
since I got my new Macbook (retina 13") several google websites don't work anymore.
- Youtube
- google maps
- google translate
- google play
- google books
- etc.
It's only a problem with Safari, as soon as I use a different browser like Opera or firefox, everthinks works.
If I use Safari I get the message:
"Safari can't connect to Server"
It never worked with the new Macbook, so I think it can't be a problem of a particilar software installed on my Macbook.
Thanks for you help.

Is there an y Proxy server selected?
Safari > Preferences > Advanced
Proxies:
Click "change settings"
The network preference window will open up.
Under "Select a protocol" if any box is checked uncheck it.
Click "ok", then "Apply". Close the window.
Restart Safari.

Why can't I access Youtube on my iMac?

I can't access youtube from any of my browsers:
-safari
-firefox
-chrome
-opera
The loading bar doesn't move at all, and the page stays white; It's only happening with my iMac computer.
I use a router for internet. Other websites work just fine... although, there are some that also give me trouble by not loading completely.
This happened as soon as I got the lates update for my computer (Feb 2, 2012)
I ran Disk Utility to verify permissions, and even fix them, but it didn't work.
-my firewall is off
-I don't have proxies
-my DNS is empty
-I flushed the DNS cache
-I tried with other users in my computer
... but Youtube still won't work
Can anybody help me with this one?

Try a different browser. Try updating your Flash player.

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 certain Google sites (youtube and google-analytics)

I can't access Youtube or goole-analytics in Safari or in Firefox. In Safari, I get an error saying that Safari could not contact the server. Here are more symptoms:
- A ping from Terminal works. The site responds.
- No change when firewall is turned off.
- No change when LittleSnitch is turned off.
- No change when all settings in Safari are reset.
- google.com works fine.
- yahoo.com works fine.
- Other video sites work fine - only youtube is affected.
- Youtube videos linked on other web sites do not work.
- In Safari I get a blank window - no text at all.
- In Firefox I get text but no videos at all - but the page never fully loads.
- Parental controls are off.
- I connect to the internet without proxies - ie. there are no proxy settings.
- I have installed the latested versions of Flash and Shockwave.
I have seen a lot of messages regarding this problem. Does anyone know about the cause ? Some people have noted the problem started with the beta version of Safari v4. If so, why would that stop Firefox from working ?
It's not a big deal but this is really bugging me. Why would all web acess be lost ?
Thanks
Garry

Great news Garry, thanks!
DNS Servers are a bit like Phone books where you look up a name and it gives you the phone number, in our case, you put in apple.com and it comes back with 17.149.160.49 behind the scenes.
Problems are that many Modems/Routers don't communicate the DNS Servers with macs all that well because they've made mistakes in their Firmware & by golly by gee, they tell MS about the workaround!
Then, many... even major ISPs have DNS problems and may have not even patched them against DNS poisoning!
Those numbers are in the US, and there may or may not be faster ones in your area, but I doubt there'll be and better more reliable ones!

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:
