Certain websites inaccessible from Safari & Firefox

In trying to access Edward Jones website, all I get is the spinning beach ball followed by a "could not locate server" error. However, when I bring up IE 8 in Windows 7 (running in parallels - same machine), everything works as advertised. We are able to access this site from our iPhone/iPod Touch without issues. I have gone through all the usual steps of clearing/reseting the browsers to no avail. This does not seem to be a browser issue. My thoughts are that this is some sort of networking issue. I am running 10.6.2 with the full complement of software updates & no Anti-virus software. Any help/ideas on where to go next?

  • Use stored login information from Safari/Firefox etc in Flash Player standalone? (Mac)

    I play a flash game called FFR (Flash Flash Revolution). It uses a login system to keep track of scores and ranks from the songs I play. On my late model eMac It's very laggy in-browser, even on low quality. I downloaded the Flash Player 9 stand alone and it runs smooth, however it doesn't use my stored login information from Safari/Firefox (or IE5 for that matter) Like Windows does. Is there any way to fix this?

    Anyone?

  • Aspx websites error in Safari Firefox + Chrome website load error

    Garnierusa.com doesnt load at all on all my 3 browsers, Safari, Firefox and chrome..

    i uninstalled all flash versions and re-installed them, no change whatsoever.
    if this is java, i have not found an uninstaller or a reasonable explanation how to totally uninstall Java anyway, without using dangerous Terminal app.

    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, or by corruption of certain system caches. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and  Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in 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 (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Layers: No respect from Safari, Firefox

    Used layers in DW8 to revamp my site.
    Links designed to toggle layer visibility on/off aren't
    working in Safari, Firefox.
    Links designed to jump to an anchor point within a layer also
    aren't working in those browsers.
    Everything seems to work fine in IE.
    I ran the built-in code checker but DW didn't identify any
    problems.
    I would greatly appreciate any help/advice in fixing this.

  • Can't Access Certain Website in either Safari or Firefox.

    FYI, I have a G5 Power PC, 1.8 GHZ, operating Mac OS 10.5.4. My internet connectivity is wireless via Airport Extreme through Comcast modem. I have been unable to connect to Microsoft Office download page for updates. When attempting to connect using either Safari or Firefox, I get message "Safari can't open download.miicrosft.com because Safari can't find server...". I contacted Microsoft support for help. They said problem was that Comcast was blocking the port access. Comcast stated they do not block ports and that Airport Extreme may be blocking said port.
    This is the only website that I have experienced any problems accessing. Does anyone have any ideas. I have searched the discussion forums, repaired permissions, etc., but have had no luck resolving this problem. Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks, Mulder for clarifying Comcast's credibility.
    I do not have any problem accessing the internet via Airport Extreme. I am only having trouble accessing this particular website. I initially contacted Microsoft Support for an explanation and help in gaining access to their download site. After I contacted Comcast, who told me they did not block any ports, Microsoft Support suggested that the problem was with Airport Extreme. Although I was doubtful of this proposal, I am trying to eliminate it as the source of my difficulties. Since 1) I have not had trouble accessing other sites, and 2) you informed me that Comcast DOES block ports, I am more inclined to believe the problem lies with Comcast and not with Airport Extreme.
    Do you have any suggestions as to how I might get Comcast to unblock this port, in the face of their denying that they block ports?

  • How to block certain websites, stopping from getting in?

    well i have students staying in my house and i have recently noticed that my students go into certain Porn sites and i would like to block it so that the student cant even go into those sites or dont even get access to it.

  • How do I print a website article from safari on mac desktop?

    I've been trying to print articles from the internet from my mac desktop but it will only print whatever is showing on the screen...example...if the article is 6 pages long, when I hit 'print' in safari's file menu, it will only print the first page that is showing up on the screen. This is the first time I've had an apple computer and am used to the regular internet explorer and just being able to hit print and having it print all pages of the article. Please help as I am doing school research and need to figure this out asap. Thank you all for your help!!

    been trying to print articles
    Try Command + Shift + 4 then use the pointer to select an area. That will be automatically saved to your Desktop.
    Now open the Preview app. From that menu bar click File > Open
    Then you can print from Preview. File > Print
    Another idea is to save the articles to PDF.
    From the Safari menu bar click File > Print > PDF > Save as PDF
    Then try printing.
    When you click File > Print you should see:  1 of 1   or  1 of 2
    If you see more then one page then it should print both or all depending on how many pages you want to print.

  • I'm having problems loading web pages on a vmware workstation 6.05 guest OS using Firefox 3.5.9. I can ping external websites fine from the guest. No proxy. Any ideas?

    I'm having problems loading web pages on a vmware workstation 6.05 guest OS using Firefox 3.5.9. Also tried the latest 3.6 version. I can ping external websites fine from the guest. No proxy. Any ideas?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I installed a guest OS

    I'm using the same swear words as you. There are several threads about this problem - no answers.
    I have a LaserJet 8100N and 8150DN, get the 79.01FE error on the 8150 from print outs from Safari, Firefox, and Preview, for only some sites/documents. CNN.com has become my test site, seems I can crash the printer 90% of the time with their home page at any given time in the day.
    A summary of what I have tried:
    - Upgraded the firmware to the latest for both the JetDirect card and the printer.
    - Swapped the JetDirect cards between the 8100 and 8150.
    - Swapped ram on the 8150 board.
    - Disconnected external trays, bins, and removed extra RAM and hard drives from the 8150.
    - Tried setting the JetDirect link and matching switch port link to 100FD, 10HD, 10FD, 100HD, as suggested by a poster.
    - Tried having client's print to the printer through a XServer Print Server.
    - Can consistently create the error from multiple systems running 10.3.9, 10.4.5, and 10.4.6 (didn't have an install base of 10.4 before 10.4.5).
    Someone in the 'know' (which means they're likely not), said 10.4.7 will likely fix this. Being Apple has not even addressed that the problem exists (that I could find), I doubt the magic fix is a release away.
    Apple's software is triggering something that Windows systems appears not to be, so one could say it's an Apple problem; but ulimately it's HP's software/hardware that is at fault in that it is allowing their system to crash from input alone.

  • Can I copy my bookmarks from Safari to Firefox if they are on the same computer?

    I would like to use Firefox and I want to '''copy''' the bookmarks I have in Safari. I have a Mac with OS10.6 and both Safari and Firefox are on the same computer. I want to know if Firefox is more friendly since I do a lot of writing.

    You should update to Firefox 6.0.1 through Help > About > Check for updates
    before testing rather than be disappointed with a Firefox update after testing.
    All browsers can use the Netscape bookmarks formatted HTML file to copy bookmarks. But according to documentation you can import directly from Safari. Hopefully that applies to your Mac, because it is not shown as an option for me on Windows 7.
    '''Import bookmarks''' - MozillaZine Knowledge Base
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Import_bookmarks#From_Safari
    "'''Firefox imports Safari settings automatically'''. Just go to File > Import... and select Safari. In the next window, check the boxes of what you want to import. For example, your Safari Bookmarks will appear in Firefox's Bookmarks menu as "From Safari." Whatever other bookmarks you had on your Safari Bookmarks Bar will automatically appear on your Firefox Bookmarks Bar, too. "
    If that does not work:
    :'''Exporting Bookmarks from Safari:''' (from Safari Help)
    # Choose File > Export Bookmarks.
    # Specify a location for the exported file. The file's name will be "Safari bookmarks.html." Most browsers are able to import this type of file.
    '''Importing Bookmarks into Firefox:'''
    #"Command+Shift+B" to bring up Bookmarks Library List, can be done from Bookmarks menu > "Show all bookmarks"
    # "Import and Backup" menu > Import HTML > From an HTML file
    #: (unless you see From Safari)
    Firefox uses the same keyboard shortcut to display menus as used on Safari (on a PC it is the "Alt" key).
    Firefox is highly customizable, so you can change the appearance, and a lot of what would be done in other browsers must be done using extensions in Firefox, but the extensions for the "same" feature probably give you a lot more functionality and control. In the following making Firefox look more like 3.6 would be of interest if you are used to other older browsers -- Safari grew up independently so other browsers are more alike.
    You can make '''Firefox 6.0.1''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6)]. ''Whether or not you make changes, you should be aware of what has changed and what you have to do to use changed or missing features.''
    * http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface
    There is a lot more beyond those first 10 steps listed, if you want to make Firefox more functional. (later on)
    '''Keyboard Shortcuts:'''

  • Facebook Share from Safari and Notification Center Not Working

    So, for a couple of days now I haven't been able to share a website to Facebook using the share button in Safari or post a status update via the Notification Center. I do not recieve any sort of error messages. Nothing happens at all when I click on the necessary buttons to post or share. I do get Facebok notifications that show up as a banner and also in the notification center. Here's what I've done:
    - deleted and readded my Facebook account in Mail, Contacts, & Calendars in the System Prefrences Pane
    - Reset Safari
    - Cleared all website data from Safari
    - Tried in a different user - Issue Persisted (so, it seems to be a system wide problem)
    I'm not sure what else I can do. I am definitely logged in with all the correct data for Facebook. I did do the software update last week (10.8.3) but am unsure whether it worked after installing it. Any ideas?

    Try booting into the Safe Mode.  Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.
