Cannot access most used sites

I've seen a few threads where people ( for no reason ) start being unable to access certain sites and this has happened to me tonight.
http://www.alibaba.com
http://www.radbmx.co.uk
Both sites get used a lot but both try and load then time out.
Connection via a non BT modem and broadband provider is fine ... but not via BT.
Why is this happening to people ... ? as it sure is a pain.
Cheers
Ed

neither work for me :-(
"The connection has timed out
      The server at www.alibaba.com is taking too long to respond.
  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."

  • Cannot access to any site with ssl connection and fail to open safari and keychain, unless restart computer and login in with Guest account.

    when Update to 10.7.2 ,I cannot access to any site with ssl connection and fail to open safari and keychain, unless restart computer and login in with Guest account.
    OS:10.7.2
    Macbook Pro 2010-mid 13inch

    I also have the same problem, however if I use Firefox or Opera sites with ssl connection work fine. Still, I can't use Google Chrome (ssl), Safari (ssl), the Mac app store (generally), or the iTunes store (generally). Both the iTunes store, Safari and the app store won't respond, and Chrome displays this error: (net::ERR_TIMED_OUT). The problem persists regardless of what network I'm using. Also, when trying to access the keychain or iCloud, the process will not start (will hang). I didn't have these problems at all before updating to 10.7.2.
    Sometimes rebooting helps, and sometimes not. If the problem disappears by rebooting, then it only lasts a few minutes before it reappears. It is very frustrating, especially since there doesn't seem to be any obvious or consistent way of which to fix it.
    I'm also using a Macbook Pro 13-inch mid 2010.

  • I can't access most .mil sites pretty sure I just need it to let me add the security exception but it doesn't give me the option anymore.

    Ever since I got the last two updates for Firefox I can't access most .mil sites like ako or even the us army library Europe site. These sites use to come up as untrusted sites that I just accepted and continued life. However now it goes straight to server not found page. I know the site links and bookmarks are good because they are what I used to use. I've read some of the other help situations that are similar and I can see some of the old certificates in the advanced options up nothing I've done in there had changed anything.

    To try to distinguish between a change in Firefox and a problem in your settings, could you do a three-minute experiment?
    '''Create a new Firefox profile'''
    A new profile will have your system-installed plugins (e.g., Flash) and extensions (e.g., security suite toolbars), but no themes, other extensions, or other customizations. It also should have completely fresh settings databases and a fresh cache folder.
    Exit Firefox and start up in the Profile Manager using Start > search box (or Run):
    firefox.exe -P
    ''Be careful not to delete anything in this dialog.''
    Any time you want to switch profiles, exit Firefox and return to this dialog.
    Click the Create Profile button, assign a name like Sept9, and skip the option to change the folder location. Then start Firefox in the new profile you created.
    Do the sites work any differently?
    When returning to the Profile Manager, you might be tempted to use the Delete Profile button. But... it's a bit too easy to accidentally delete your "real" profile, so I recommend resisting the temptation. If you do want to clean up later, I suggest making a backup of all your profiles first in case something were to go wrong.

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

    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.

  • I cannot make shortcuts to my most used sites. How do i do this?

    in IE, I have one bar with all the shortcuts to go quickly access my most frequently used sites. Is there a way to do it that I haven't found yet?

    In Firefox 4 you see the orange (on Linux gray) Firefox button if the Menu Bar is hidden (View > Toolbars > Customize or right-click a toolbar).
    * Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.
    * Go to "View > Toolbars" or right-click the "Menu Bar" or press Alt+V T to select which toolbars to show or hide (click on an entry to toggle the state).

    I don't know why this is happening to you; maybe your Wi-Fi connection is unstable?
    I just tried from my Android tablet to login to http://www.adobe.com/, https://www.acrobat.com/, https://www.facebook.com/ - no problem whatsoever.
    I also opened Adobe Reader, and I get autoatically connected to Acrobat.com

  • Cannot access web-streaming site

    Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit/SP1 OS...cannot access ANY cahnnels on "FreedoCast" web-streaming site (http://www.freedocast.com)...despite having latest Flash installed (version 11,6,602,180 installed).  Probably not a browser issue as this occurs on IE9, Firefox 19 & Safari 5--of which is a screenshot attached--as you can see No Video--just a Black Screen & No Audio--Basically the same display on all 3 browsers---COULD this be a "Flash" issue or more likely  the actual site (http://www.freedocast.com)--or perhaps something ELSE, I might not be familiar with?? 

    Hi,
    You can check the port you bind for the website in IIS and make sure you have created endpoint with the correct port. You can also install Telnet client on your local computer and run "telnet xxx.cloudapp.net public_port_in_endpoint" at the command
    prompt to see it works.
    Have you enable SSL on the website hosted on Azure VM? If yes, please also create an endpoint with port 443 and open that port in Windows Firewall on the VM.
    Best regards,
    Susie

  • Pc users cannot access my web site

    pc users trying to access my web site that I designed on iweb cannot play my podcast or my music samples. Why????
    Powerbook G4 10.4   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    That's because your QT clips are probably encoded with the latest video codec H.264. This is only available with QT 7 and is the new default for iLife applications. In order for your PC friends to see everything, they must download QuickTime 7.

  • Cannot access any https sites, clock is OK, get This Connection is Untrusted error message.

    All works OK on Chrome and IE, but Firefox just suddenly stopped access to https sites yesterday, e.g. Google, Facebook and Linkedin. Non secure http sites are OK though. "This Connection is Untrusted" is the error message and technical details are www.google.com.tw uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because no issuer chain was provided. (Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer). I've tried all the Mozilla support suggestions, clock (which was always correct), reset Firefox, etc. No change so far, I hope you can help fix this issue.

    Check the date and time and time zone in the clock on your computer: (double) click the clock icon on the Windows Taskbar.
    Check out why the site is untrusted and click "Technical Details to expand this section.<br>If the certificate is not trusted because no issuer chain was provided (sec_error_unknown_issuer) then see if you can install this intermediate certificate from another source.
    You can retrieve the certificate and check details like who issued certificates and expiration dates of certificates.
    *Click the link at the bottom of the error page: "I Understand the Risks"
    Let Firefox retrieve the certificate: "Add Exception" -> "Get Certificate".
    *Click the "View..." button and inspect the certificate and check who is the issuer of the certificate.
    You can see more Details like intermediate certificates that are used in the Details pane.
    If <b>"I Understand the Risks"</b> is missing then this page may be opened in an (i)frame and in that case try the right-click context menu and use "This Frame: Open Frame in New Tab".
    *Note that some firewalls monitor (secure) connections and that programs like Sendori or FiddlerRoot can intercept connections and send their own certificate instead of the website's certificate.
    *Note that it is not recommended to add a permanent exception in cases like this, so only use it to inspect the certificate.

  • Cannot access iCloud using my Apple ID password.

    I cannot access my iCloud account.  Yesterday I started getting a message that I need to review and accept the new iCloud user agreement.  My password was rejected repeatedly, so this morning when I got that message, I followed the prompts and reset my password.  The new password word works for the iTunes store and it got me logged in here, but it won't work with the iCloud.
    *** am I supposed to do now?
    Thanks for any help,

    Solution:  if you get the "Unsupported AppleID" dialogue following an OS update in OS X on a desktop / laptop.
         1) click "Cancel" button in the dialogue box,
    then quickly
         2) switch to the main Preference window ( button in menu bar that looks like several rows of tiny icons)
         3) select the Security & Privacy Preference Pane, go to the Firewall tab and switch the firewall to OFF. (if necessary unlock padlock using your desktop keychain password)
         4) re-open the iCloud Preference Pane where everything should be normal again. Login to iCloud if required.
         5) switch back to Security & Privacy Preference Pane and switch Firewall back ON.
    The above
    Worked following "unsupported AppleID" dialogue blocked new agreement in the iCloud Preference Pane following upgrade to Yosemite 10.10.3. (March 2015)
    I'm not sure which aspect of the Firewall triggered the AppleID issue, it may have been "Block all incoming", or "stealth mode", or…?  It would seem that following significant changes or upgrades to the OS  ones computer needs to re-establish an authenticated handshake with iCloud, by a different than everyday method is normally used to sync documents and data, and that a firewall blocks this initial handshake.
    This may explain why some folks who have an effective router based firewall also have problems setting up iPads and iPhones.
    Goodluck.
    One could have reasonably have expected that Apple (the slackers) would have long since fixed this problem, or at least notified a workaround in the posted iCloud trouble shooting knowledgebase.  This OS centred problem differs, from the earlier ICloud Authentication problem that was server based and affected users with very old  AppleIDs that were flagged "Apple Retail Product Professional" which was caused by iCloud's database not recognising the Flag.

  • I cannot access common web site like Paypal. I get an "Untrusted Connection" screen. I have accessed Paypal in the past. This also happens with Capital One.

    Just in the past week, when I try to access many web sites, including PayPal and Capital One, I get a Untrusted Connection screen and it prevents me from entering these sites.

    hello ra12rick, first please make sure that the date, time & timezone are set correctly on your system. if this doesn't solve the issue (or it is already set properly), a possible solution depends on different factors:
    * what is the '''error code''' shown under ''technical details'' on the error page?
    in case the error code equals ''sec_error_unknown_issuer'', please attempt to add an exception on the bottom of the error page & inspect the certificate (see the screenshot attached for instructions):
    * which '''issuer information''' does the certificate contain?
    thank you!
