Don't Know Where Else to Ask:Website Not Loading on Any Mac But Does on PCs

Strange.
For a couple weeks now accuweather.com will not load on any of 10 Macs at 3 different locations - which are a good 10 miles apart (whether in Firefox, Safari, or Chrome), but that site loads instantly on PCs using the same ISP (Cox) - my staff have confirmed this from their homes. All other websites seem to be zipping just fine on all the Macs.
Anyone have an idea as to why and what I might do to get back to my weather website?

Deleted cookies (and cache and history and everything else) long before posting - on all 3 browsers, on different Macs at different locations. No joy - but still this inability to load happens ONLY on this one website (I look at several dozen a day, at a minimum, and over the course of a week, up to a couple hundred).
Actually this inability to load this one site is affecting 10 Macs scattered between 3 very remote sites - the ONLY common factor is all are at 10.6.2, and Cox is the ISP (but like I said - Cox is delivering this website fine to Windows users on my staff, at their homes).
Absolutely nothing changed on the Macs themselves. I always wait 6 - 8 weeks after updates come out just to make sure all is stable before putting my economic life on the line. No Mac updates installed during that time frame. The only change along the way was upgrading Firefox a few weeks ago, but I can't see how that would impact Safari or Chrome (which have not been touched in a month). Also - this behavior did not manifest right after updating FF.
I did boot FF into Safe Boot and that didn't do anything.
Any more thoughts?
Thanks (anyone)!

I don't know where else to ask this: Quick Question about Logic Platinum 6

Hi everyone,
This question actually pertains to a copy of Logic Platinum 6 I own but I don't know where else to ask it, so here I am in the Logic 8 forum.
I haven't touched Logic in a year or maybe two, and I just installed it on my computer and after attempting to start it up with two different XS keys (I thought I lost one so I have a replacement and I forget which one is the active one) it says "no XS key found" to both of them.
I want to upgrade to Logic 8 but in the mean time I can't even get Logic 6 to recognize my XS key.
Please help me out if you have any information that would be beneficial or know where I could seek help!
Thank you!
Colin C.

When you plugin them in, are they recognised in System Profiler? Try differnt ports, connecting them directly and not on a hub. Try on a different computer if necessary.
You can also try running:

Installed SEO Quake, SEO Status and Search Preview don't know where to find them as not showing in any tabs on the interface.

Just new to Firefox. Installed these plugins/add ons. When installed SEO Quake saw this displayed in a tab at top of window. However, when installed the other plugins none of them appeared anywhere. I haven't got a clue as to how I display/show them in the window area so that I am able to use them. It is a mystery to me as to where they have disappeared!

Does the iPod work OK?
Does it charge when connect to the computer?
Does it appear in My Computer?
Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Compare with the iPod that does work/connect.
I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1

iPod touch (3rd generation)
iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

Hi folks, I don't know where else to go!

I have iLife '05 on my computer. I'm trying to upgrade to iLife '06. I can't even get the DVD to install the software onto my computer. I get to the point of registering and then receive a message that there was an error and to try installing again. I don't know what to do now.

Hi Mike,
I'm moving my question to the location that Jeff suggested. I don't have another computer to try the disk in, however, since I've tried installing the iLife disk, I'm having problems trying to install completely different software.
Thanks,
Scott

I use CS5 and all of a sudden I am getting a notification that says there is an error with my icons. It's telling me to contact support or reinstall. The problem is I don't know where my disks are to re-install. Any suggestions?

doodlebug,
Am I just out of luck until I find those?
You may try Adobe Support (phone),
http://helpx.adobe.com/adobe-connect/adobe-connect-phone-numbers.html
and talk to them about your registration, but I am unsure whether they can help you with anything pre CC (There was a Customer Care option with chat which seems to have stopped working).
If you are still out of luck, please report back, and I will try to ask someone to find the right someone to help you.

what is your question/issue here? did the folder have any content in it to begin with? screen shots of what you may be seeing?

What is a 403 Forbidden error message which I get on firefox, safari and chrome. I don't know if it is the website or something with my mac though everything else works fine.

When trying to log in to crossstitch.com I get this message:
You don't have permission to access /index.php on this server.
Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Apache mod_fcgid/2.3.6 mod_auth_passthrough/2.1 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 Server at www.crossstitchforum.com Port 80
I googled the error message and don't really understand what it means.
I don't know if it is the website or something else. I am not sure where to check and I don't know how to get in touch with the webmaster. If anyone can help I would appreciate it.

If it is a Firefox add-on, you may be able to disable or remove it here:
new Firefox button > Add-ons > Extensions
or
classic Tools menu > Add-ons > Extensions

Ever since downloading and opening Firefox 4 beta, when I try to launch 3.6.8, I get an error message saying that Firefox is already running; it is not. I have removed 4.0 beta from the computer, but don't know where else to look for any bits and pieces.

I need to restart the computer in order to launch FF 3.6.8. Also, in Dreamweaver CS5, I have defined FF 3.6.8 as my default browser, but when I try to view a page in FF, I get the same message that FF is already running. Where else do I need to look to find hidden files that are causing this?

Did you uninstall the Firefox 4.0 beta version ?
If you did then did you remove the personal data or otherwise removed to Firefox profile folder ?
Make sure that you still have a (default) Firefox profile folder.<br />

Don't know where else to turn

Please help if you can,
I'm having printing problems and can't resolve. Have an old Epson Stylus Photo 1280 and have cartridges from an OEM dealer. Never seemed to have problems before until recently. The printing is off <> muddy <> photo prints with too much magenta. BTW, have current drivers.
Here's what's interesting . . . Have a friend with an HP photosmart 07560. Her computer is old and the monitor & printer are not calibrated together, never were. Created a PDF of the file and printed it "perfect" on her printer. She also has bought cartridges from the same company I use and has had no problems with color shifts etc..
I have not calibrated my monitor & printer, never had to. Photos printed fine before. Could it be that maybe, just maybe this batch of cartridges is bad? I have other cartridges but haven't tried to use them. Don't want to open the packages and try & reseal them if the problem still exists.
Also have an HP color laserjet 2600n but can't use it right now: does have a color shift because of a hardware problem [registration is off]. Inks are fine but a similar problem occured with it as well. Just wanted to print the photo to see if the color was "off." Yup, too much magenta on a white walled house [outside]. Like I said, my friend's HP 07560 printed the photo perfecto!
Do you need any additional info to help solve this problem?
Have CS3 and tried printing the photo from Photoshop & Acrobat. Didn't manipulate image in any way. Been a graphic artist since the early '90's and can't fingure out what is going on!
Very frustrated and would appreciate ANY help I can get. I know this isn't directly a Photoshop problem but someone out there in the forum probably has had a similar problem and can help me. Could it be the cartridges and if so, why would both my printers be off [toner & cartridges] at the same time and not my friend's who is computer illiterate and doesn't even know what calibration means!
Oh Please!!!!
Thanks in advance,
Ellen

Just a quicky here: The company I bought the cartridges [and toners for another printer] from has really come through. Been doing business with them for several years and any problems I've had, they have responded more than graciously!!! BBB apporved, BTW! They're sending me 4 new cartidges and a UPS return label [I don't have to pay return postage]. I will then send back the defective ones.
They are Color Toner Expert [www.colortonerexpert.com] if you want to do business with them. Great bunch of folks and have gone above the call of duty. They sell remanufactured toners / cartridges.
I don't work for them <> but just want to pass along a great value. Internet companies can be shady and when ya find one ya can trust, well, it's worth passing along!

I don't know where else to post this. iTunes Remote Application

I know they have the application "Remote" so you can control iTunes from your iPod Touch or iPhone, but is there an application that you can control your iPod Touch or iPhone from your iTunes? I see this useful because right now my computer is a laptop, therefore anytime I'm listening to music on it, I'm usually right there, no need for the remote application. But I see it as if my iPod were in a docking station or stereo, it would make sense to have an application that runs on your computer, that you can control your iPod right from your computer, or atleast like a play/pause, skip, volume type thing.

Could you please copy/paste the link where this video that doesn't work is supposed to appear on? Perhaps we can see if this problem is limited to your settings, or is an actual server issue.

I lost one of my eartips for my in-ear headphones. Apple won't help me and i don't know where else to go

I just lost one of my eartips for my in earheadphones. Apple doesnt sell them on their site and also no other store in my country sells them. I called to the supportnumber but they told me that i 'll cost me 25 euros. 25 euros for a set of three rubber eartips from which i only need one?! (size s). Also i need to pay with a credit card, which i haven't got. So basically there is no way for me to get the replacement tips. Is there anything else i can do? Any number i can cal to complain about it? Because i feel like i''m gettng screwed. And no i dont want ear tips from a different brand. Thanks.

I wandered streets of Sydney including Apple store to be told these are not available however, I have since successfully purchased from
http://www.dealsishop.com
who provide the silcone plugs in all 3 sizes promptly and quite affordably. They seem to stay on better than the original Apple [product that comes with the headsets. Delivery was quick and an easy way to shop, recommneded fully, now placing another order for friends and family!

OSX 10.6 .8 -- Firefox automatically starts when I boot up (MacBook Pro Intel). It is not in the Startup Items in System Preferences, and automatic startup is not checked in Firefox Options. Don't know where else to look.

How do I keep Firefox automatically starts when I boot up (OSX 10.6 .8 -- MacBook Pro Intel). It is not in the Startup Items in System Preferences, and automatic startup is not checked in Firefox Options.

Hi fullrun-
Once Firefox is open, you should be able to open the Right click context menu on the icon. From there you select 'Options' and then de-select 'Open at Login'. Hope that helps.

Powerbook making bad squeaking sound...don't know where else to post.. hlp

Dear Forum,
This powerbook g4 1.25 2g ram, 15" alumninum, hard drive failed 3 weeks ago, I replaced it. Now, there is a new noise coming from somewhere in there. It only starts when I am downloading something, and the graph screen on safari shows the status bar filling up indicating the progress...and it also makes this sqeaking abbrasive sound when, for example, I am in iMovie3 hd, and i use the feature far far away, which generates "star wars" like scrolling on the screen. Out from the computer comes this bad abbrasive sound. Not good.
Can someone tell me what it is?
Id like to try to fix it myself from ifixit.com.
Thanks,

Yes using Virtual PC on your G4 PowerBook.
The new MacBooks can not run Virtual PC, however can dual boot with Windows XP SP2 and if the DOS applications can run on XP SP2 then you will be able to run them.

Don't know where else to post...

This is strange....I have been using a Mophie Juice Air battery case on my iphone 3G. It uses a microUSB cable to connect for power, etc. I have been using a generic microUSB car charger to charge this case and phone for some time now. No problems.
I just got a 3GS. Using my Mophie case on it now, which is no problem. Phone will still charge with the Mophie cable to the computer, but NOT with the car charger - when I plug it in I get a pop-up message on the phone saying 'this device is not compatible'. Why is that? It's just a charger for the case? I am not connecting anything strange to the phone itself?
Mind you, the car charger has no compatibility promises on the package, other than that it works with several Motorola phones and some others. But it shouldn't matter....it's the only MicroUSB car charger I could find, so it should power anything that has MicroUSB, such as the Mophie Juice Air. So now if I wanna charge the phone in the car I have to take it out of the case and use an iPhone car charger (which I hope will work now, as I haven't tried it yet.)
