Can't get past the first page of some websites

4 days ago everything was working fine, then 2 days ago i bought something on ebay and followed the instructions to pay via paypal i didn't get any further than the check details page, so i closed and tried to go through the paypal site directly, the login page opened fine, typed in my name and password then nothing, no error message, just blank page, one night i left it for 2hrs nothing. i tried to go on internet banking last week on firefox and it kept coming up with a error message (can't remember what it said) but went through internet explorer and it worked fine.
i tried another website last night www.britishgas.co.uk/topup and that page wouldn't display anything at all, but some pages i go on work perfectly fine with no problems, i don't really know alot about computers and this has left me baffled, how can it work one day then not the next. i have AVG and have just completed a full scan and everything is fine and also updated flash player

When the AirPort Express is new, it is broadcasting a default wireless network with a name like Apple Network xxxxxx, where the "x" can be either a number or letter.
Click the fan shaped AirPort icon at the top of your screen and look for this network. Your computer needs to be on this network in order to communicate with the AirPort Express.
An alternate way to do this is temporarily connect a spare ethernet cable from your computer to the AirPort Express. You can keep the ethernet cable connected during the configuration process and disconnect it when you have updated the Express with your new settings.

Can't get past the Configure page

I got a new Airport Express (old one replaced by a Genius after MBP couldn't connect to it). I try to set up a new network but I'm failing. MBP recognizes AE but I can't get past the reconfigure screen. The page keeps loading but that's as far as I get. I can't get to the point of naming my network and choosing a password.
Since I had a different AE set up here, do I need to reset something to make the AE work again?
Thanks.

My new iMac had the old data transferred in-store but now it won't accept the password on the first screen. How can I reset this? I can't get past the first screen as a result.

I cannot get past the initial screen on my new iMac. Data was transferred from my old computer so when I turned it on It automatically had my name in the window and asked for the password, but none of my old passwords seem to be accepted. How can I fix this?? It's a new IMac with osx.

Which password isn't working? The one to access the iPad or the one to get your hotmail?
If hot mail, you go into the settings, mail, contacts and calendars and edit your hot mail account. Of if it won't edit, delete it off the iPad, then re-add it with the new password.

How can I get past the activate page on ipod touch?

I am trying to fix a ipod touch for an lady I know. she purchased this ipod for her 9 year old daughter and she set it up with her dad apparently using his email account. The daughter forgot her passcode so she wanted me to restore it which I did. Now I'm stuck at the activation page. After trying everything online I could find I called apple spport and spent 2 hours on the phone with them. After all this I was able to finally get logged into the dads apple id account which shows the daighters name and his email account that was used. Problem is that the 9 year old apparently set up the find my iphone setting and/or changed the apple id at some point to her [email protected] so when I get to the activation page it wants the apple id that the 9 year old used and she has forgotten it. If I try her dads email and id it says it cant be used to activate the ipod. I try to reset her password but the birthdate isn't going through and I've tried her real bday, her bday that she used on her facebook account, and her parents bday as well as several years up and down from it but can't get through. Any ideas on what can be done?

Click here and try recovering the account information. If needed, phone Apple’s Account Security team.

Cursor engages bookmarks too fast and I can't get past the first few folders.

This may be a Mac OS X 10.5 problem and not a Firefox 6.0, but I can not locate anything to slow down the response time in which the cursor engages a folder or bookmark (immediately upon passing over) (and throwing up a window that I have no intention of viewing). I can not get past that spot in the bookmark scroll, as releasing or moving the cursor only works within the folder (politics/travel/etc.).
Thank you for any help in resolving this speed thing!

I am trying to reinstall an admin password and got completely locked out. I can't get past the first log in

I am trying to reset my admin password. I think my computer was tampered with. I signed out completely and now, I am locked out. I can't get past a black screen. I'm unsure of my operating system but I've had laptop about 2 years.

If you boot from your install DVD and, after choosing language, go up to the Apple bar and select utilities, you can restore you admin and firmware psswds. You will these options there. Do not choose a firmware psswd if you do not need this, you may complicate your life, especially if you forget it.
I do not understand how you changed the psswd and why you cannot log in, though. Did you forget the new psswd or why? What do you mean by ‘was tampered with’?

Can't get past the "Registration" page when syncing up nano...Help!

I'm hoping someone can PLEASE help with my problem. I posted in a different forum a week or so ago, but unfortuantely didn't get an answer that worked:
My wife and I have had our iPod nanos (2nd gen) since Christmas 2006. We've been using iTunes since then with no problems.
The basic information:
My computer is a Gateway laptop running Windows XP. It was recently serviced (it needed a new power jack) I am using iTunes 7.0.2.16.
Recently, when syncing up mine or my wife's iPod Nanos (2nd generation)using the USB port, iTunes will reccognize our iPod nanos in the left-hand screen, and it will sync them up...however, on the main screen, it will not get past "Registration" no matter what I do. If I hit "cancel" or "register later" or "never register", nothing at all happens. It just stays on the same page. If I select "register", it will let me fill in all the information, and then gets stuck on that screen. It absolutely refuses to get past registration to the "preferences" screen.
Needless to say, we are unable to select any of our playlists, see how much space we have...do anything, basically. It is super frustrating~!
If anyone has any suggestions, I would be extremely grateful~!!
Thank you very much--

Hi melbernai - not sure if you've solved this problem yet. I had the exact same problem recently with my 2nd Gen iPod Nano. I solved it yesterday by simply updating iTunes to the most recent version, after which I could get rid of the register screen. The only other thing I needed to do to add my custom playlists was select "Manually manage music" on the screen for my iPod, since it had been in an automatic synching mode since the problem occurred.

How can I get past the iTunes page that offers a free download of iTunes 10+ ?

My iMac G5 doesn't have the Intel Processors and it operates on OS X 10.4. Both conditions make it impossible for me to upgrade to iTunes 10. Every time I attempt to log into the iTunes Store, I am given a page that offers me the opportunity to upgrade to iTunes 10+ and I'm not able to get beyond the page and in to the Store. My account is current and I'm not happy with this strategy to make my perfectly good iMac obsolete and force me to buy a new one in order to access the iTunes Store. I need a way to get beyond the page that offers the iTunes 10+ free download, so I can purchase the music I want. Please help me get around this Apple ploy.
Uncle Jim Serna

Many of us don't like it but innovative Apple staying ahead of the curve means those of us on the other side quickly get ignored. After all, who is it who is spending money on all that hardware and software; the people staying with the newest all the time, or those of us who haven't bought a computer or operating system in 5 years? It's a for-profit company so you can hardly blame them, though it doesn't endear me to the policy of not supporting anything older than 4 years or so.
More in response to your specific issues, with a G5 you can upgrade to OSX 10.5 (which doesn't require Intel except for iCloud and related) which will allow you to run newer iTunes. It's a bit of hassle and some cost.
Alternatively think about buying from some other online retailer such as Amazon and don't forget to write Apple saying what you're doing.
Edit:
A comment on Niel's suggestion, I don't think anything less than iTunes 10 gives you access to the iTunes store.

How can I get past the wifi page during setup on iPad 2? I've tried hitting the next button but my screen is cracked and I can't press it

I've tried pressing the next button but my iPad is cracked in that spot.

I'd "get past" that problem by getting a new iPad!

Just reset tiger but can't get past the first welcome screen

I'm loading up my MacBook Pro after resetting it to factory settings without a disk. It loads up to a welcome screen after a little animation of languages and it says 'to begin select the country or region you're in, then click continue'
But there are no languages to select. The box is empty and obviously I can't continue until I click on something.
Anyone had this issue or is it just me?

Possibly, make sure it's the Retail version though.

The only options I have are overview or end. I've tried swiping from right to left and left to right on the green box at the top... Nada

My guess is you're in a country that does not yet support turn-by-turn.
Here's a list of which countries support which iOS 6 features:

Built my first PC, won't get past the first screen :(

Took me 12 hours to do my first build (I know, took too long) and I was so happy at first once everything was done but that didn't last long unfortunately. :( I'm stuck at the first screen where it lists my PC components and it tells me to either press DEL or F11. Nothing works. It's as if my keyboard is not being recognized... which it does because it says "1 KBDs, 1 MICE etc." in that same screen.
Parts are:
* MSI Computer Corp. Motherboard North Bridge AMD 970 & South Bridge AMD SB950 Chipset ATX DDR3 800 AMD AM3+ Motherboards (970A-G46)
* AMD FD6300WMHKBOX FX-6300 6-Core Processor Black Edition
* PNY 8GB Kit (2 x 4GB) 8 Dual Channel Kit DDR3 1866 (PC3 15000) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM MD8192KD3-1866-X9
* ASUS HD7790-DC2OC-1GD5 Radeon HD7790 1GB GDDR5 128-bit, DVI-I/DVI-D/ HDMI/DP PCI-Express 3.0 CrossFire ready Graphic Card OC-selected 1075MHz core
* WD Blue 1 TB Desktop Hard Drive: 3.5 Inch, 7200 RPM, SATA 6 Gb/s, 64 MB Cache - WD10EZEX
Every single one of these parts is listed in that first screen where I'm stuck at so that means everything is working, right (i.e., not dead on arrival or I didn't damage anything)? I did a Google search and this guy here (can't post links so the URL is not formatted) ->overclock.net/t/1426196/all-new-custom-pc-wont-get-past-the-bios-setup-screen<- had the same problem as I was and he pretty much has the same parts as me and he fixed the problem by using a pair of RAM with a lower voltage.
On MSI's page, it says there that the motherboard that I'm using supports 1.5V of RAM and I just checked the manufacturer's page for the RAM that I'm using and my RAM is listed as using 1.65V... could this really be the problem? Should I go ahead and get new RAM or is there maybe something else?
I also removed the CMOS battery for 1 hour and then moved the jumper to positions 2 and 3 to short the pins and I still can't get past the first screen. I'm going to try using just one stick of RAM next and should I insert it in DIMM1 or DIMM2?
Thanks in advance!

Get a stick of cheap 1.5V RAM and give it a try. Plenty of good quality cheap RAM out there. In this instance my meaning of cheap is "low price" not low quality.
To be honest I would suggest to just go ahead and get some Corsair RAM such as what you see in my signature below. That is one brand that seems to work good in just about any system built using MSI MB whether it be AMD or Intel.
Thanks! I just ordered these - http://www.amazon.com/dp/B003N8GVUY/
Cheapest Corsairs I could find with 1.5V

Another question I forgot to ask is what is the brand and model of your power supply?

Welcome to the Discussions!
The first thing to do would be to boot from your original Disk 1 by:
1. Inserting the disc, pressing the power button, and immediately after the startup chime, press and hold the C key until you see the spinning gear icon appear on the grey splash screen.
2. After the machine has booted, pick your language, and when the Installer window appears, do not press Continue, but go to the Utilities menu in the menubar and open Disk Utility.
3. In Disk Utility, choose your normal startup volume in the pane on the left and then click Repair Disk. If any errors show in the window, run Repair Disk again until you see 'The volume appears to be OK' in green.
4. Quit Disk Utility, quit the installer and attempt to restart into your regular startup volume.
Please update your profile so we have a clearer picture of your particular machine.

Restart the Mac, and start over, it very well could be frozen. This is not the way you would like to start out your Mac experience!
