Cannot use Safari or iTunes to access net, Firefox works ??

You guys,
Out of the blue, I'm unable to load pages in Safari or connect to the iTunes store in iTunes. Firefox works, though.
What gives ??

I have just developed the same problem after having to reinstall 10.4.11 from an old back up.
My problem is compounded by an issue with my system preferences that will not allow me to open the Network panel - it goes into a loop saying your settings have been changed by another application - how do I deal with this latter issue?

" You cannot use the application "iTunes" with this version of MAC OS X."

I am getting the response " You cannot use the application "iTunes" with this version of MAC OS X." How do i get Itunes on my Mac. I tried to download the newest version but it won't let me do that either.

What operating system version are you using on your Macbook? If you are still using Tiger 10.4 the new iTunes requires Leopard (10.5) or higher.

The following article may address your question:

Open the Finder by clicking the Finder icon in your Dock.
From the menu bar at the top of your screen click Go > Go to Folder
Typs this exactly as you see it here ~/Library/Safari
Click Go
Move these files from the Safari folder to the Trash.

I downloaded the latest Adobe Reader when prompted. Since then I cannot use Safari File Print to print web pages - the printer dialogue window opens but the page is blank. Also, when I try to use the safari Help button,the dialogue box is blank.

I downloaded the latest Adobe Reader update when prompted. Since then I cannot use Safari>File>Print to print web pages - the printer dialogue window opens, but the page remains blank. Also when I try to use the Safari Help button, the dialogue box opens but remains infuriatingly blank. Can anyone help me to solve this problem?

Back up all data.
Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then launch Safari and test.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

Safari won't open anything. Firefox works fine.

Safari won't open anyuthing. Firefox works fine. Is something happenng at the Safari end?

Sue --
Are you really still on 10.5.1?
Tell us your exact OS, the version of Safari you're running, how long this has been happening, etc. Is it actually crashing? Does it open up with your Home Page? Then what happens when you want to see a site?

Wireless is connected, but cannot use safari, itunes, software update

Im having trouble with my macbook pro right now. The network diagnostics show that my connection is fine, but safari won't connect to any sites.
With safari, it doesn't say anything about not being able to connect, it just shows the loading icon on the url bar and a white page.
iTunes won't connect, and same with Software update. I do not have any antivirus right now.
My time machine is working, but that uses a different router(the one on the time machine)
Ive tried resetting safari among other things and nothing has worked. Any suggestions?

Do you use the right channel and right encryption settings?
This should be checked!
It should be able to change the WLan channels in device manager -> WLan card -> Properties -> Advanced tab
But I would also recommend disabling the encryption and password in router settings and to connect to Open Wlan of course this should be done only for testing purposes if the notebook would be able to connect to the open router, then this would mean that you used a wrong password.
How about WLan driver update? Did you update the WLan driver? If not do that!

Cannot use Safari or any net based apps. Keep getting "server not responding" any ideas?

when trying to use Safari, or any internet based Apps (ie:facebook,youtube) my daughters Ipad gives me a few min wait, then says " unable to connect, server not responding" . At first I thought it was my Wifi.. nope.. everything else in the house connects just fine. Then I thought that maaaybe I needed to re-login onto my wifi from the Ipad... nope.
Any ideas??
Thank you
I am asking about an original Ipad... idk whyit says Ipad2

Even though other devices are connected to wifi, it still could be that you are not connected. Is the wifi icon at the top of the display illuminated.
Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
Additional things to try.
Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

Cannot use Safari with this version of OSX??

I recenlty installed Leopard on my G5 (pre-Intel but with 2GB). I have iLife 08 and Safari 3.
On one of the Account windows I get the message that "You cannot use the application Safari with this version of Mac OS X".
It works fine on my (administrator) account.
Any thoughts on this one please.
BTW, it is my children's account and I have some (but not stringent) parental controls.

Alternatively, see the steps I posted for resolving conflicts/corrupt plists within an account at:

When I click the Safari app to open it, I keep getting this popup and I cannot close it without force quitting. I also cannot use Safari at all because this keeps poping up what do I do?

I will get this popup and when I try to quit it, it will show another popup called MacKeeper. I always get this ad however I have never downloaded. I am unable to use Safari because of this issue. I have tried restarting and shutting down my computer, but when I try and reopen Safari, I will get the same message and Mackeeper popup. Please help. It's like these popup ads have taken over my Safari. I have run multiple scans on my computer and it says no malware detected and no viruses.

Launch Safari with the Shift key held down. If that doesn’t work, disconnect your computer from the Internet and try again.
Those popups are being opened directly from the web and not by any malware installed on the machine.

Ipad mini cannot use Safari after connecting to Youtube?

My ipad mini doesn't seem to want to open Safari after I try to watch videos on Youtube. I tried using the Youtube app, reinstalling it, and using Safari to open up Youtube videos, but no go. It seems that my ipad mini is also unable to use Safari after trying to watch these videos, and I have to go out of my way to turn off and turn on the Wifi button again. This is already my second ipad mini, because I exchanged the first one due to the "battery charging" issue.
I've already tried to do the home button + power button reset and reset all my other settings. I know it's not my router because I can use my netbook and my mom can use her laptop on it, and even her ipad. I have also had this ipad for about a month now, and the problem only arose this afternoon. If there is an internal problem, I'd really like to exchange it again while I still have warranty, but I was just wondering, did anyone else seem to have these problems? And if so, did you get it fixed?

Go into Settings -> Safari -> Clear History and Website Data

Safari/Youtube/iTunes/App Store All Not Working

Hello,
I have an iPhone 3GS and today all of the software that required the use of the internet just stopped working.
Safari, YouTube, iTunes, and the AppStore all do not work. I click on one of these four icons, it pops up for about five seconds, then it goes right back to the home screen.
I tried shutting off my phone. Didn't work.
I tried reconnecting it to iTunes itself. Didn't work.
I reset my network connections. Didn't work.
I erased my History, Cache, and Cookies. All that did was make it so that when I click on Safari, my Bookmarks come up. The internet still doesn't work.
A friend of mine has a theory that these "apps" aren't working because of the snow/rain/ice storm I'm currently in the middle of and that once it blows over, my internet should work again.
My WiFi and 3G work.
I'd like to avoid resetting my phone to it's orginal settings if that's possible.
My most recent update is the 4.2.1 update.
To any and all who can help or offer some suggestions, thank you very much.

I tried both resetting it by itself and while it was connected to iTunes. It didn't work.
Thank you for your help though.
You tried resetting all settings on the device by going to Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings?
There is no reset in iTunes, are you stating that you did a restore? If you did a restore, did you restore as a new device or from your backup?
What you describe sounds like an issue in the settings of your device. If you have not already, restore as a new device.

Flash no longer functions on Firefox for my macs. I re-loaded flash by doing it from Safari. Used Safari to ask this quest since firefox uses flash for tho

I have tried everything. uninstall reinstall. I couldn't test for flash because the function wouldn't work. I uninstalled Firefox twice and uninstalled flash twice. I cleared history, etc. I called my tech support for my multiple listing service, since I can't even log on without flash. He checked everything, and told me he couldn't figure out why it is not working. the plugin for shockwave flash is there. I know flash is on my machine because when I tried to install it after installing it this morning, it said it was already installed with the latest version. Later on I uninstalled and reinstalled twice. Flash works on Safari and Chrome. Only Firefox has this problem. I am very frustrated. I had to use Safari to even use your "ask a question" since Firefox uses flash to ask a question!!!!! HELP!!!!!!!!

Thank you. Here you go!

I cannot use my pogo account this is what it states, how do I fix this, it worked fine this morning and tonight it isn't working
It looks like you’ve the new version of Firefox. Unfortunately, there is currently a bug that is preventing players from playing Java games with version 3.6.14 of Firefox.
