Can't load web pages/Itunes store

Hi
I installed the security update yesterday and since then (or may be a coincidence) I'm having difficulty loading webpages. Some, like Apple, my bank, won't load at all - the progress bar just gets about 3/4 of the way across and stops. Others take minutes.
I'm using Entourage for mail and that is fine - no problem with email. I've tried using Safari, Firefox and IE - same problem with all my browsers.
I contacted Apple support - and emptied the cache, trashed the preferences folder and reset safari at their suggestion. No Joy.
Can't access the iTunes store either - or rather, it starts and again just stops.
Any help or suggestions would be welcome. In simple words please, I'm a bit simple.
Thanks
ian

It sounds like it might be a DNS issue.

IPad really slow and can't load web pages

I tried to ask this question from my iPad mini, but it was not possible to type in this field, so apparently support is another page that I can't load. Suddenly iPad won't load web pages, and is really slow...I already cleared safari cache and history...what now? have not updated to ios8.

Hello LizBMac,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If your Wi-Fi network is loading images slowly, then I recommend that you follow the information in the article linked to below.

Take care,

Can only load web pages

Hi there,
I'm running an Apple iBook G4, with Mac OS 10.4.7, and connecting to the Internet through an Apple Airport Extreme. Until recently, my connection has been fine, but in the last few days I've noticed a systemic failure has crept up on me.
Almost every application in my system cannot connect to the Internet. iTunes can't connect to the music store, Gmail notifier can't retrieve messages, Mac OS X Software Updater can't connect to the update server, even the dashboard weather and stock ticker widgets can't connect to their servers.
Now here's where it gets weird. Web pages load fine in Firefox. Camino and Safari both refuse to load anything, but Firefox is loading pages without a hitch.
I'm stumped. Really, any help would be greatly appreciated.
iBook G4 14" Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Try restarting the base station by opening the Airport Admin Utility in /Applications/Utilities/. Select your base station from the list and choose Base Station> Restart. If your base station doesn't show up in the list, you can also unplug your base station from the wall for a few seconds and plug it back in to restart it.
If that does not work, follow the instructions in this article to reset your base station.
Let me know if this helps.

Can get email, but can't load web pages

I have an Airport Extreme basestation which, up until a week ago, was working fine. Now, I can send and receive email, but I can't access any web pages. When I try, it just hangs and nothing loads. Nothing has changed in setup and I haven't changed any settings anywhere. My suspision is that my ISP (Charter) changed something that my Airport is unhappy about.
I called Apple, and they told me it's Charter fault. I called Charter, and they told me it's Apple's fault.
I also called my local Apple store (not an official Apple store, but a small local reseller) and they said they've had an unusual number of people in the area reporting the same problem. Unfortunately, they don't know what could have happened.
Any idea what the problem might be or what I can check? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Limited Access - can't load web pages

Although I am connected to the internet, web pages won't load. Trouble-shooting, it says I have "limited access" (I've tried both hard wire and Wife - same deal, no go).
Thought it might be my ISP, so I was on the phone with AT&T support and we ran tests and ping showed packets going out and coming in normally, and I can connect to the online game I play, but websites will not load. No home page, no E-mail, nada.
I am not a computer geek, so I have limited know-how.
This question was solved.

Interesting that AT&T support could not help. When that problem happens, it could be a virus or some malware. It can also be caused by your antivirus software - imagine that. But first try resetting the stack. SEE HERE for a dicussion. The reset in the last section applies to Windows 7 also.

Lumia 920 can't load web page

We just bought 2 new Lumia920 phones and while we like the devices, we have a huge problem... A couple of web pages I need for work doesn't work. It opens the main page but when I try to log in or open another link it just reloads the page I was on. I'm pretty sure it's a browser compatibilty problem but I am out of ideas. If this can't be solved I'll have to switch to a different phone Thanks for any suggestions

I didn't mention the site because unfortunately you need a password to be able to get to it. Im guessing its some sort of script or java problem but i don't know much about either... If that's the case, could this be addressed later when they update the site or is it one of those permanent bummers? I did find the"requirements page" and this is what it says:

Can't load web pages?

in the past few days I have been unable to load certain webpages (google, hotmail), and have had spotty access to others (gmail, certain yahoo pages). Also, many images are not displaying. I downloaded Firefox and experienced the same problems, so it seems as if Safari may not be the problem. I've tried rebooting my computer multiple times only to experience the same results. My hard drive only has about 250 megs of space left, but it's been like this for months and I haven't had these website problems before. Any advice?

It sounds like it might be a DNS issue.

Get error "TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined" and can't load web pages. Problem with Firefox 5?

I tried repeatedly to load Firefox 5. The Error "TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined" keeps coming up. The browser loads but any URL I enter doesn't load. Sites activated by buttons do load. Internet Explorer works.

07-05-11 When I turned on my laptop (Vista) this morning, I got a Start in Safe Mode and Repair message so I did. It suggested a System Restore, I hit OK. When it started like normal, I waited a few minutes then TRIED to launch Firefox 5.0 but kept getting a Mozilla Crash Report dialogue. So I instead opened Firefox 4.0b12 --error free-- so I could get here to get help. When I tried the Run... firefox.exe -profilemanager step, I get the subject error. When I try to open FF 5.0 in Safe Mode by holding down the shift key simultaneously, I get the subject error and no launch (though no Crash box either). I will try to let the FF 5.0 Updater run when it appears again but it never lets me choose when to Ask Again so I don't think it'll show again until tomorrow. Sigh. Oh, and like someone at a different version of this error blog re WinVista 32bit, now I'm getting the issue of Enter not executing the URL typed in the address bar; I had to click the arrow.
I hope the Update is to fix this problem.

I can't connect to the itunes store and have some problems with other websites. Some websites load OK. I had the same problem on my iPad and changed the DNS, but don't want to do this on my iMac, anyway, surely I should have my router's DNS?

I can't connect to the iTunes store from my iMac and have problems loading a number of other websites, however some websites load perfectly well. I have had the iTunes store issue on my iPad and resolved it by changing the DNS but surely I should use the DNS for my router. I don't really want to change it for the iMac as I access secure sites with it to internet shop.
Any ideas, I was going to try loading Chrome but can't get it without going through the iTunes store. Anyway, that is treating the symprom not the cause.

Adding Open DNS codes to your Network Preferences, should give good results in terms of speed-up as well as added security, (including anti-phishing and redirects) (Full information about Open DNS is here: http://www.opendns.com/home/nobloat ) and further independent information can be read here:
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57338784-263/free-dnscrypt-tool-enhances-ma c-web-security/?tag=mncol;txt
and here:
http://www.macworld.com/article/1146064/troubleshootdns.html?t=234
Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu, and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' add the following two numbers:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
(You can also enter them if you click on Advanced and then DNS)
Sometimes reversing the order of the DNS numbers can be beneficial in cases where there is a long delay before web pages start to load, and then suddenly load at normal speed:

I'm using Safari 5.0.5 on a 13" MacBook Pro and can't get Safari to fully load web pages or pictures on web pages. Any suggestions?

I bought a MacBook Pro in October of 2010 and it's been running greatly up to this month. Now I am experiencing problems with Safari loading web pages. Sometimes it will load web pages just fine and other times it doesn't load web pages at all. This only seems to happen with certain sites. Also, on some web pages Safari won't load pictures (only the blue "?" is visible). I've experienced the same problem when I use the Mac App Store. In addition to these problems, when I visit sites that have problems loading, sometimes I just get a notice saying "Not connected to the internet" or "Safari cannot find the server." I am beginning to wonder if the problem could be some setting with my wireless router. I'm really hoping my MacBook hasn't gotten a virus. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi.
Try putting these numbers in Network>TCP/IP>DNS Servers, for the Interface you connect with...
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
Then Apply

I can open my web page, but cannot install itunes.

Everytime I try to install itunes, i get message saying check internet connection.

These issues are usually caused by firewalls. See [[Cannot connect after upgrading Firefox]]

My MacBook Air won't load web pages from the internet. It will connect to phone hotspot and run fine. The apple store reset the library and network preferences and it ran fine for a little bit, now slow again. Any ideas?

I'm using the same swear words as you. There are several threads about this problem - no answers.
I have a LaserJet 8100N and 8150DN, get the 79.01FE error on the 8150 from print outs from Safari, Firefox, and Preview, for only some sites/documents. CNN.com has become my test site, seems I can crash the printer 90% of the time with their home page at any given time in the day.
A summary of what I have tried:
- Upgraded the firmware to the latest for both the JetDirect card and the printer.
- Swapped the JetDirect cards between the 8100 and 8150.
- Swapped ram on the 8150 board.
- Disconnected external trays, bins, and removed extra RAM and hard drives from the 8150.
- Tried setting the JetDirect link and matching switch port link to 100FD, 10HD, 10FD, 100HD, as suggested by a poster.
- Tried having client's print to the printer through a XServer Print Server.
- Can consistently create the error from multiple systems running 10.3.9, 10.4.5, and 10.4.6 (didn't have an install base of 10.4 before 10.4.5).
Someone in the 'know' (which means they're likely not), said 10.4.7 will likely fix this. Being Apple has not even addressed that the problem exists (that I could find), I doubt the magic fix is a release away.
Apple's software is triggering something that Windows systems appears not to be, so one could say it's an Apple problem; but ulimately it's HP's software/hardware that is at fault in that it is allowing their system to crash from input alone.
