Cannot access a secured (https) web site but IE can.

Receive Problem loading page error:

If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network

If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

If you mean www.ssa.gov there is no problem (for me) accessing it on Mountain Lion in Safari at all. It also works with Firefox and Opera.
Here it is in Safari:

    Flash player works on https web sites but not on http web sites ?
    I've tryed a lot of things to solve this problem but impossible to find the solution.
    - re-instal flash player

    Thank you.

    This is what you should see under "plugins" in Opera:
    Make sure Flash Player is listed and enabled.
    It comes from the same place as the plug-in for Firefox, so one won't work if the other doesn't.
    If that doesn't work, try a clean install. http://forums.adobe.com/message/4041846

  • TA21328 I downloaded a security update and now I cannot access my online banking web site.  How do I fix it?

    Does anyone have a quick fix for this?  I downloaded the latest security update and now I cannot access  web page for online banking. 

    It is not asking what part of your country you are in, but what country/region you are in.
    Region encoding is the mechanism that enables motion picture studios to control the worldwide release of their movies. It is required by the DVD Forum (http://www.dvdforum.org/forum.shtml) in all commercial hardware DVD players. Every DVD-Video disc contains one byte of data representing a region code, which limits where the disc can be played.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2397
    Once you have set the region in DVD Player five times it cannot be changed.
    Instead, use VLC to view videos from different regions:

  • Safari can not access any secure (HTTPS) web pages

    Does anyone have an idea why a good frined of mine using Safari 1.3.2 on a Power Book G4 with Mac OS 10.3.9 can not access any secure web pages (those that start with HTTPS)? I can not find any preferences that might control this. She can access the pages with IE but not Safari. What setting on her computer might control this? Any ideas would be appreciated. I even through away (com.apple.Safari.plist) file. Not change. An ideas??

    I have the same problem! However, this is ONLY while running wireless internet. Anytime I want to use an HTTPS site, I have to plug directly into my router, so I'm not wireless anymore, and then it works fine. Every now and then (like maybe 5% of the time), I get lucky and it will work for a short while such as logging into yahoo mail for example (logging into here didn't work at first but after waiting a bit, i was able to log in), but trying to stay on a secure connection such as a bank accnt. is impossible.
    Any help would be GREATLY appreciated! Everyone I've asked says they've never had the problem. I thought I was the only one.
    I checked my proxy settings -- nothing is checked. I've tried deleting preferences and I reset safari often.

  • Firefox 4 (nor other browsers) do not load web sites but IE can

    Hello,
    Firefox suddenly stopped work - It was working few days after ver. 4 update. I was looking everywhere for some solution but nothing worked. - uninstalled firewall - '''did not worked '''- added full exception for Firefox into the firewall - '''did not worked '''- Firefox reinstallation - '''did not worked '''- Firefox complete uninstallation (registry including) - '''did not worked '''- IPv6 disabling - '''did not worked '''- diferent proxy options (no proxy, system proxy, autodetect proxy) - '''did not worked '''- new firefox profile - '''did not worked '''- complete coockies, history... deleted - '''did not worked '''- there is only one solution which partly works - I have used public proxy addresses for Firefox but the ping is (750ms), down/up (0.8MB/0.2MB) originaly (10MB/2MB) and yes, I have tried different proxy server from different countries from my including. - IE is working perfectly and without proxy - other browser - are not working also - only IE is working - I have used three different malware, trojans, spyware, anti-virus programs and nothing
    It seems to me as hopeless situation or very clever move from Microsoft, I am forced to use IE - at least this works
    Any ideas, solutions?
    System Windows 7, firewall Comodo Internet security
    Thanks everyone for the help

    Yes, skype was running that time, but....
    1) I do not start Skype automatically with Windows start up.
    2) I cannot use any browser for web pages loading
    3) it seems to me as something is preventing to browser go to the internet cos firewall never recognized any request for connection to the network.
    findings:
    - firewall nor defense+ is the problem - we have tried it already - with different conditions and with completely uninstalled
    - plugin container.exe cannot be started, but I think that Firefox should be able to run without it
    - IPv6 is not a problem
    - Skype or Hamachi is not cause of this problem
    - Firefox is able to run with manually set proxy server - but is slow
    - IE is running regardless everything what is preventing to run other browsers
    The easiest way will be to reinstall the windows. I have killed innumerable hours to solve it without success - reinstall is at least sure solution
    Anyway thank you for your help

  • Firefox isnt able to load any web sites, but IE can. I disabled Norton 36o but no joy

    Everything was rather ok before I upgraded to 3.6.13 Should I downgrade? It must be some other solution. Or, of course IE way...

    Most commonly, not being able to connect to the internet after updating/upgrading Firefox is caused by your firewall doing its job. Your firewall does not recognize the new Firefox version. Remove all references to Firefox from your firewall's "programs list", start Firefox, let your firewall re-detect the new version, and give proper permissions for Firefox to access the internet.<br />

  • It gets me to the web site but I can't do anything the site ?

    Firefox gets me to the selected home page but I am unable to make any selections on that home page.

    Apple tells us that the AirPort Express can only "extend" a wireless network....using wireless only....if you are using another Apple router......an AirPort Extreme, Time Capsule, or another Express.
    If you already have a wireless network in your home and want to extend its range, AirPort Express can help. Just place it in range of your primary base station — an AirPort Extreme, Time Capsule, or another AirPort Express
    As far as we know, Apple's "extend" feature is not compatible with routers of other manufacturers. I have tried an AirPort Express with models from both Linksys and Cisco in the past....and it would not work with them to extend the signal using wireless only.

    If I switch on my iCloud will I still be able to access my iWeb created web site currently on MobileMe. I understand I need to find another host before June, but I would like to access iCloub before then.

    If you want to migrate your MobileMe account to iCloud you do so at http://me.com/move . You will need Lion 10.7.2 on your Mac to be able to use its facilities. Your calendars, contacts, bookmarks and email will be moved to iCloud.
    Your iDisk, including website hosting and Gallery, will be unaffected and can still be accessed as before, though the migration process will probably sign you out in System Preferences>MobileMe and you will need to sign in again there.
    You will continue to be able to use your iWeb site as before. As you say, this will cease at the end of June. This page examines some alternatives:

    Since I updated my IPad software to iOS 5.0.1 from 5.0, I cannot access some web sites. How can I go back?

    Sorry, you cannot downgrade iOS software.
    First thing to try is a reboot of your iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appear. Let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart. See if that fixes your problem.

    It is possible that the server gets confused by the user agent that is modified by your Ubuntu distribution and adds Ubuntu/10.10 (maverick)

  • SharePoint Designer 2013 cannot access workflows in Office 365 Site

    I have an Office 365 SharePoint site with a number of workflows that I have created on my machine with SPD 2013. After a number of weeks I was unable to access the workflows from my machine through SPD (while still being able to access pages, site assets
    etc.), getting the following error: (Am restricted from submitting images)
    "Server-side activities have been updated. You need to restart SharePoint Designer to use the updated version of activities"
    Restarting SPD doesn't help, after clicking OK I get the "SharePoint Designer cannot display the item" screen, prompting me to refresh. 
    When I do refresh, I get the following:
    "Windows Workflow Foundation, part of .Net Framework 3.0, must be installed to use this feature"
    This is happening on my machine, Windows 7 64 Bit, SPD 2013 64 Bit, but on a colleague's machine, Win 7 64 Bit, SPD 2013 64 Bit I can access the workflows. 
    I get the same error if I try to create a new Workflow on my machine but I can create it on my colleague's machine.
    I downloaded SPD 2013 on a 32 bit laptop I have access to, in which I can create a workflow. One existing workflow can be accessed, updated etc. with no issue, one opens to a prompt to "Insert a stage" and one tells me that it "Failed to load
    the workflow definition for the workflow", then the "SharePoint Designer cannot display the item" screen. All of these workflows can be accessed from my colleague's machine.
    Here are the actions that I have taken to date on my own machine:
    Cleared the caches multiple times
    Checked for updates
    Installed .Net Framework 4.5
    Re-installed .Net Framework 4.0 (which contains 3.0)
    Uninstalled and re-installed SPD 2013 
    Due to issues with a workflow on the site I am in contact with MS Support who are aware of this issue, they sent me a link to a hot fix that was already installed but they have no concrete idea of what might be going on.
    I was convinced that it was an issue on my machine, but I don't know what the issues that I have seen on the 32 bit SPD on the new laptop mean.
    I have been searching the internet for a fix with no success, I would appreciate any help.
    Thanks
    Mick

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that SharePoint Designer 2013 cannot access workflows in Office 365 Site.
    There was an issue recently when a service release was implemented that incremented the version number in the HTML header on some SharePoint online sites to '16' when SPD was expecting '15'. 
    I suggest to install internet explore 10 and install a patch for IE10. Then test with "open with windows explore" then opened in SPD from sharepoint online.
    In addition, I suggest that in SPD go to Account > Switch Account and type in the credentials of the site you are trying to open (it defaults to your Microsoft Login).
    If the issue persists, to troubleshoot this issue, you can uninstall all versions of SharePoint Designer on workstation, clear cache and then reinstalling the latest SharePoint Designer. For the detailed information, you can refer to the
    article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2794961
