Certain websites are not resonsive on my Macbook pro!

So I have a late 2008 Macbook Pro. And I'm almost positive that this is an issue with the machine and not the internet. But whenever I go to certain websites (Pandora and You Tube) none of the navigational buttons are responsive! I try choosing other stations, or pausing video on You Tube and NOTHING happens. Like the sites are not letting me do anything!
Can anyone help me out here?? I'm thinking that it may be some kind of technical SOMETHING in my machine that's making it act buggy..... Thanks for your help

Hi Dj Cj,
It most definitely sounds like something with the browser. With that being said... what browser are you using? What version of the browser? If you're using Safari, what if you try FireFox? If you're using FireFox what if you try Safari? How about a new user account... does the issue persist there as well?

Certain websites are not running on my Macbook Air how can I fix that?

I was trying to get on LouisVuitton.com and it would not load, the page would just be black.

You won't be able to do anything with that page without installing the latest Adobe Flash Player.
Download Flash Player using this URL: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
Step 3 is just advertising. Skip it.

Zap the PRAM and Reset the SMC, then try again. If the problem remains, update to 10.6.8 and repeat.

The internal speakers are not working on my macbook pro

the internal speakers are not working on my macbook pro

Are they selected under System Preferences>Sound? Or do you see something such as "Digital Output" listed instead of "Internal Speakers"?
It may be that your digital out switch is 'stuck.' This usually happens after using headphones and you can usually see a red light coming from the audio out port. You can 'fix' this by plugging and unplugging a headphone jack repeatedly until the switch is reset.

I'm unable to load certain websites across all browsers on a MacBook Pro

Suddenly I'm unable to load certain websites (sundancechannel.fr, sundancechannel.tw, etc.) across all browsers—Safari, Firefox, Chrome—on my new MacBook Pro. Other computers on the same wifi can access those same sites fine.
I either get a won't connect to server message or a blank page.
Any idea what's going on?
I've thus far tried restarting the connection, clearing my cache, restarting the computer, deleting my history, and even getting in touch with the site owners.

Cambrey,
that HTML content shows that there’s no content at that Web site — it will only show the heading “301 Moved Permanently” and the single line “nginx/1.2.6”. I suspect that they might have wanted to include a redirection directive in that document, but for some reason, they didn’t. Your browsers are behaving as they ought to do with this Web site.
Have you considered trying www.sundancechannel.fr in your browsers instead of sundancechannel.fr?

Old conversations are not synchronized with new MacBook Pro

Hello!
Yesterday I purchased the newest Retina MacBook Pro (medio 2014), upgraded to Yosemite and started installing and setting up my applications. Sadly, I seem to have a problem with iMessage, since it's not synchronizing my messages properly.
Up until now I've been using an iPhone 3GS, a MBP (medio 2009 w. Yosemite) and an iMac (late 2012 w. Yosemite), and everything seems to work fine, since all the devices share and can access the same conversation history. However, when I started setting up iMessage on my newly purchased RMBP, the conversation history with each of my contacts isn't synchronized even though I'm able to send messages. I tried logging in/out, delete/add my iCloud account, but nothing seems to work.
I assume all of my messages are synchronized with iCloud. Of course it would make sense if it took some time for Apple to recognize and synchronize the messages, but it's been 18 hours since I started messing with iMessage. Am I being to impatient?
Does anybody know how to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Theis

Hi,
It is a yes, no and maybe answer.
You have to grab several items form the old Mac and place them in the correct places on the new Mac.
As you seem to be using Yosemite all round that task is easier (that is a relative easier),
See this pic
Note the Path Bar across the bottom that list where this Archive folder is.
It can be shortened to ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.iChat/Data/Library/Archive
(you can type or Paste this in the Dialogue box in the Finder > Go Menu > Go to Folder)
In the Messages folder is also an Alias that links to the Attachments folder. (I will come to that later)
You also need this spot.
This is Still in ~/Library but not in the Containers bit but just the Messages folder.
It has the Attachments folder and the various chat.db items.
Move the Contents of the Attachments from one computer to the new one.
Move ALL the chat.db items (I must admit I am not sure about leaving the incompatible ones behind).
Make an Alias of the Attachments folder and drag it to it's proper position (in the Containers/../../Library/Messages folder) (replace the one that is there so it is linked to the moved stuff).
Now go back to the Archive folder. If you are using the Show Path Bar (view Menu of Finder) then you can Right Click the folder icons
Select the Archive Folder and then Get Info on the right click.
At the Bottom highlight your name in the list for Permissions.
You Should have Read and Write Permissions.
If you now use the Gogwheel type icon you can see if you Own the Folder.
If it is greyed out like this one then you Own it.
However you are most likely to have to "Apply to Enclosed" items as you have just moved things.
Repeat for the Chat.db and Attachments (~/Library/Messages folder).
And then the Alias just to be sure.
There is not an Export option that would be simpler.

Facebook videos are not playing on my MacBook Pro

Help, I just bought a brand new MacBook Pro 2011 and I've downloade adobe flash, java, silverlight EVERYTHING i know of and I cannt watch Facebook videos ! :/ Please HELP !

Ignoring the silverlight and java stuff, and concentating on flash, because that is all you should need for the flash videos, did you download that flash installer from the adobe flash plugin download page?
If it was successfully installed you should have a Flash Player system preference. Do you?

Urls are not coming in as links in sent emails; certain websites are not displaying correctly

When I send an email with a url/link, it does not come in to the recipient as a link.
Went to a website (bjs.com), which was not displaying images and had no functionality.
These things worked in IE8 so it's a Firefox problem.

That is probably Hotspot Shield.
Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.

TS1627 I can receive my mail on my iPod and iPhone, but the messages are not coming into my macbook pro.

When I set up my two email accounts on my new mac, I was receiving mail just fine, and I could check it on any of my 3 devices, and view read or unread between the devices. Now no mail is getting through to my laptop. Any ideas??

My iPhone and iPad syncs calendar, contacts, mail. But these are not synced with my MacBook pro. I'm using latest leopard. Why?

To solve the above question, do I need to upgrade to lion?

You should post this in the iPhone or iPad forums.

Are certain websites simply not mac compatible?

I have had a mac for the last 4-5 years and have had only one issue in the past, which turned out to be easy to fix. However a new one is starting to crop up in that I have found that certain websites are windows and IE only. Is there a way around this? This has only occurred to me on three sites, unfortunately two of them happen to be pretty important. I would like to stay away from windows and IE as much as possible, nor do i wish to put either on my mac.

HI,
From the Apple Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences then select the Advanced tab. At the bottom of that window click: Show Develope menu in menu bar.
Now from the Safari Menu Bar click Developer/User Agent. Try one of the options there. This function only applies to sites for IE only.
Microsoft stopped writing IE for the Mac years ago. In order to run IE you would have to install Windows with BootCamp that creates a partition on the startup disk and install anti virus software on that partition.

Certain things are not displaying of pages

Certain things are not displaying that I know are there. For example, on one of my websites there are 3 banner ads and the bottom of the pages plus there is another line that has ads scrolling across the page, I can see it with IE or Chrome but on Firefox all I see are 2 banner ads and no scrolling ads. This is just one example but it seems 1that certain graphics or banner ads do not display. The site I mentioned is at http://www.ViralTrafficMania.com.
Other people with Firefox say it displays fine so it must be something in my settings but I can't find it, please help.

You don't happen to run any ad blockers or script blockers or privacy extensions, do you? To see whether any of your extensions could be responsible for the blocking, try the site in Firefox's Safe Mode. That's a standard diagnostic tool to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
Any difference?

In Safari (7.0.1) under Maverick (10.9.2) certain loginpages are not even presented anymore. What causes this problem?

Under Maverick (10.9.2) with Safari (7.0.1) I notice that certain login pages of websites are not even presented anymore. As I cannot reach the source of those pages I also do not know which programming/websites they use for the login process. Anybody knows about these problems. As I use Little Snitch to prevent certain markting websites, geared to present information that I am not interested in, there might be a problem there, but I want to know more!

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

My iSight is not working on my Macbook Pro. What are the possible problems and solutions?

My iSight is not working on my Macbook Pro. What are the possible problems and solutions?

Hello Douglas,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with the built-in iSight camera on your MacBook Pro. I recommend the following steps for this issue:
Important: Follow these instructions in order. Test the camera between steps to see if the issue is resolved.
Built-in iSight cameras
These steps are for iSight cameras that are built into a computer, such as the iMac G5 (iSight) or later, the MacBook, or MacBook Pro.
See if the issue is application-specific.
Try another application (iSight works with applications like iChat, PhotoBooth, and iMovie HD 6) to see if the iSight camera exhibits the same behavior in all applications. If it only happens in one application, try reinstalling that application.
See if the issue is user-specific.
Test your iSight camera in another user account. If the issue only occurs in one user, the issue would be isolated to user settings.
Find out if the computer recognizes the iSight
Check System Profiler (in the Utilities folder, inside the Applications folder). Under the USB header, check to see if the iSight camera is detected.
Reset SMC or PMU
Reset your computer's SMC or PMU, and then check System Profiler again. (SMC reset instructions for iMac G5 (iSight), Intel-based iMacs; PMU reset instructions for MacBook and MacBook Pro.)
If your built-in iSight camera is still not behaving correctly after trying all these steps, you may need to contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service.
