Cannot open Yahoo!, Lifehacker but others fine

Using my Macbook, I can (as of yesterday) no longer load Yahoo! Lifehacker and a few other random websites while others function fine. The issues are not with the sites since I can access them from other computers. Any thoughts?
This started after installing the latest update/security but I am not sure if that has anything to do with this.

Hi Heeljim,
Did you try to repair permission?
Try to repair permission everytime you update, remove or install something to your mac.
Finder > Application > Utilities > Disk Utility > Repair permission.
Good Luck.

  • Cannot open yahoo or orkut through firefox

    cannot open yahoo or orkut through firefox......
    == URL of affected sites ==
    http://orkut.com, http://facebook.com, http://yahoo.com, http://gmail.com

    Hello Jil.
    First of all, and although possibly not related to your problem, I will remind you that the version of Firefox you are using at the moment as been discontinued and is no longer supported. Furthermore, it has known bugs and security problems. I urge you to update to the latest version of Firefox, for maximum stability, performance, security and usability. You can get it for free, as always, at [http://www.getfirefox.com www.getfirefox.com].
    Now, as for your problem, you may be having a problem with some extension or plugin that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?

    thisnthing keeps on probing itself ... i wonder why. (.66 is the NMH  .76 is my pc ... ) it is also strange it cannot retrieve its own mac address....
    Oh , you can turn off the logging features again when done. it only takes time and diskspace on the NMH
    And before i get flamed : the comments i make about 'broken source' : i have no gripe with linux. I have a problem with companies that grab a bunch of stuff that is free ,slap it together, sell it for a lot of money and give no support to the people that bought it. They want all the money for no effort .. they turn open source into broken source ...

  • I cannot open Yahoo Mail in Firefox - It works just fine with all other browsers

    When I try to open Yahoo Mail in Firefox, it times out.
    This happens every single day.
    Every once in awhile I get lucky and get in, but again, I have to deal with this issue every single day.
    Yes, I've dumped the cookies and Cache
    Yes, I've switched to No Proxy
    Yes, I go through straight links and not bookmarks
    Nothing helps.
    Basically, if I want to get into Yahoo Mail, I have to open Google Chrome. Which has me thinking, if I have to open Google Chrome so often, why don't I just switch?
    I'm a long time user of Firefox and would prefer to stick with it, but this is the kind of thing that will push me over to using Google Chrome.
    Anyone have any other suggestions?

    You can remove all data stored in Firefox from a specific domain via "Forget About This Site" in the right-click context menu of an history entry ("History > Show All History" or "View > Sidebar > History") or via the about:permissions page.
    Using "Forget About This Site" will remove all data stored in Firefox from that domain like bookmarks, cookies, passwords, cache, history, and exceptions, so be cautious and if you have a password or other data from that domain that you do not want to lose then make sure to backup this data or make a note.
    You can't recover from this 'forget' unless you have a backup of the involved files.
    It doesn't have any lasting effect, so if you revisit such a 'forgotten' website then data from that website will be saved once again.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

  • Hotmail shows inbox but cannot open emails shown but can send email, it works on other browsers and I did the latest update on firefox

    Firefox brings up my Hotmail web page and shows emails but I cannot open them or delete them. I can send emails however. Other browsers like Opera and Chrome work the Hotmail fine. I have downloaded the latest Firefox update as late as today!
    This is a new problem and it worked fine for years. I have Windows 7 operating system on my desktop.

    This problem has been ongoing for months for some users.
    I managed to fix my issue by completely uninstalling FF and then reinstalling the newest version which is 6.0-something.
    I was previously running on 3.0 and my automatic updates had not told me there was a newer version.
    I don't know if that will fix everybody's problem though. I assume a lot of people were already running on FF 6 when they had their problems.

  • I can open Windows Live with Ff4 and can 'see' emails but cannot open them. It was fine with Ff3. Is there a plug-in?

    If I right click on the messenger icon on the toll bar it opens windows live in firefox by default. Then the page just hangs. I can see the emails but cannot open them. It works ok if I load in internet explorer browser.

    That format is used primarily to record TV shows, which you are generally not allowed to edit.  So it's unlikely you'll find a plug-in or converter.
    Recapture using Premiere Pro or HDVSplit.  Those files will work.

  • I cannot open some sites. Others open fine.

    I have a PPC iMac G4 running 10.5.8. Both in Safari and Firefox, some sites open right away (mail.yahoo.com, wellsfargo.com, apple.com). But others will not open or will take minutes to open (yahoo.com, mail.google.com, wunderground.com). Bizare for sure. Set up static IP address to find this mac on my network. No settings have changed since this system was set up a few years ago. Other PCs on my network work fiine. Also rebooted DSL modem, and router. Any ideas?

    Finally had time to work on the iMac again. Checked the above link and other links off of that. No help. Covers basic trouble shooting. I am using the iMac now. The problem is not being able to open or seriously delayed opening of some sites, like Yahoo, Google or Bing. Would something in Onyx have deleated or changed settings to cause this? Thanks to anyone who can help.

  • I can open hotmail but cannot open the email, it works fine in Internet Explorer, it seems as if the problem is with Java. I am using the latest version of Java, Help!!

    I can sign into my Hotmail account and see emails but cannot open the email. I have tried to open the Java consul but it won't open. I can open emails OK in Internet Explorer. Any ideas??

    You said you tried the recommended solution, but didn't mention what that solution was. Try, from the Firefox menu bar:
    <br /><br />
    Tools -> Options -> Content
    where you will find an option to block pop-up windows. If that box is checked but there are sites from which you would like to allow pop-up, click the button "Exceptions..." to add sites to your exception list.
    See also the help article [[Pop-up blocker]].

  • Cannot open Photo.library of other Mac User.

    Running Yosemite, and Photos 1.0 (Dutch version). As advised elsewhere, in order to allow Photo library being used by 2 users of same MAC, I created a 3rd 'shared data' user, to put shared Photo data. So with 1 of the users on MAC, I imported (old) iPhoto library in Photos, went fine, and copied the Photo.library file on the 'shared data' folder under folder Pictures. I created proper authorizations for both users to access this library. Now from the user by which I created this net Photo.library, I can open this library OK, but from the other user (same authorizations) I cannot open the library, error is 'Photo cannot restore permission'. I run the checkdisk program, run the program to restore permissions, but did not help. When I try to open this library on the 'shared data' user's folder from Finder, error says it cannot import pictures from the library. Thanks for advice. 

    2 disks, and buy a software to backup one disk to the seagate raid 1 ... sounds complicated to me, TimeMachine can't backup network disks. Fact is though that I can access the foto library from 1 other user on the MAC, so it isn't so that accessing other user's  library doesn't work. But it only works for 1 user apparently. Clearly not very well thought through by Apple.

  • Firefox gives error by opening Yahoo Mail. Other webbrowers don't have this problem. How do I solve this

    Firefox gives an error by opening Yahoo mailbox.
    It mentions every time: 404 Not Found
    When using other webbrowers Yahoo is doing fine.
    How do I solve this problem?

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    ''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]<br><br>
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
    Thank you.
