I can access my college website with firefox on a PC but not a Mac.
The message I get when I try to access my college website is:
Server not found. Firefox can't find the server at www.ccccd.edu.
* Check the address for typing errors such as
ww.example.com instead of
www.example.com
* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.
* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
== URL of affected sites ==
http://www.ccccd.edu/
The key to what you seem to want to do is to be able to get Apple's Time Capsule router to "join" the network that your Conceptronic router. I believe that works with some third-party routers, but I've never seen a list of those that work in such a configuration and I have no experience with Conceptronic equipment.
You might be better off with a Network-Attached Storage (NAS) device instead of a Time Capsule.

Can't connect to websites with any browser. Bookmarks do not work but bookmarks through bookmarks edit works just fine.
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load 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.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
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 turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up 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 startup 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, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2. -
Can't access secure college website with 3.11 previously OK
I've been logging on as a visitor, once a week, to the Mount Holyoke College website for over a year without problem, but once I upgraded to Safari 3.11, I now receive a new warning, ""Can't detect hardware" which I've never seen before. Once I go through their registration process, I still get the same warning, and can't access anything on the Internet EXCEPT the APPLE.COM website. Is that weird or what? Nothing else has changed recently on my PowerBook except Safari (and other recommended Apple Software Update suggestions.) Last week I brought in a PC laptop/Vista, and logged on just fine. ;>) Their IT people claim it's a Safari/hardware problem.
How can I downgrade to the previous version of Safari, which worked just fine for me?normal traffic uses http on port 80 by default
encrypted traffic using https is on port 443 by default
there are some sites that use different ports, but if you open 443 it should be ok for most
if you enable "personal web sharing" on the firewall tab it'll open those ports
non-default port numbers can be seen in the url, for instance...
http://www.port.com:8080/
...means http for this site is on port 8080 instead of port 80 -
I can't access this secure website with the new fireforx upgrade but I could before the upgrade.
As above. What can I say-I have tried everything listed on the support forum website. I had no problem accessing this secure website, which is my work email, before I upgraded to Firefox 4.0. I would prefer not have to go back to the previous version if possible. I don't like IE because it is just too slow, but right now I have to use it to access this website. I have windows firewall and have allowed firefox.exe as an exception. Any suggestions as this is very frustrating. Thanks
You should be able to use the OpenVPN Connect app running on your iPad to connect your iPad to the VPN directly. It is an official OpenVPN client for iOS devices.
In what way is it "not compatible"? Have you tried it? Tunnelblick is an OpenVPN client, so your school's VPN is using the OpenVPN protocol. That means any OpenVPN client should be able to access it. (It is possible, but unlikely, that your school uses encryption that is not available on the iPad, but that would be very unusual.)
Otherwise, a remote control app on your iPad would let you control your Mac at home. "Back to My Mac", for example, would allow you to control your Mac remotely. The tricky part of this is that usually a VPN is set up to send all Internet traffic via the VPN server, and I'm not sure how that would work with "Back to My Mac". -
I am using Windows7 64 bit on my PC, plus I WAS using Firefox 4.0.1 very happily and enjoying the new tabs in groups etc, but I just discovered that '''''that''''' version of Firefox crashes when attempting to access any of my website's pages.
My Website: [http://www.franontheedge.com My Main Website] www.franontheedge.com
and [http://www.franontheedge.com/animation My Animation Website] www.franontheedge.com/animation
I discovered this when adding a new page to my website to display resource images for a challenge on Renderosity's Bryce forum. The page I added is this one:
[http://www.franontheedge.com/animation/stills_inspiration.html New Page added] http://www.franontheedge.com/animation/stills_inspiration.html
in order to continue working, including working with my website, I have had to uninstall Firefox 4.0.1 and re-install Firefox 3.6.12, which today wished to update itself to Firefox 3.6.17 - which I allowed it to do - checking that my website was still accessible from the updated 3.6.17 version - which it is.
I tried to update my plugins thinking that might be my 4.0.1 problem - but even after updating all my plugins, Firefox 4.0.1 still crashed every time I tried to go to my own website - this is very dispiriting!!!
I could maybe understand it if Firefox 4.0.1 crashed just on pages of my site with video on it, but it does it on pages with just images and text on it as well.
Is it possible to:
a) Install both Firefox 3.6.17 '''''AND''''' Firefox 4.0.1 on this my 64 bit Windows7 PC?
b) Fix Firefox 4.0.1 totally?
Is Firefox 4.0.1 a 32 bit system? or is it 64 bit?
I have program files for both 64 bit and 32 bit on this PC, and can run other 32 bit programs with no problems at all.
I have no problems accessing my website with Google Chrome either, nor with Opera, but I '''''liked''''' Firefox 4.0.1 - and would like to be able to go back to it, but I won't if my own website is not accessible on it.
Please can anyone help?Hi BladedxRayne,
You should look at the article [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved Preferences not saved].
Hopefully this helps! -
When downloading/uploading any file with Firefox, Finder shows date but not time
On my iMac, as I either upload or download a file using Firefox after installing Lion, the Finder window that opens for me to tell it where to either download the file to or upload it from, shows dates of all the existing docs there, but not the time. How can I make it show the time as well?
I have found the problem.
A download manager had been installed for a specific website and it was butting in all the time. Even after removing it with 'Add or remove software' it still had its hooks into the system and it was impossible to download anything as it now would not run.
Had to do an XP 'System restore' before I could get rid of it.
The offending program was MD_setup.exe size 3,045KB from the themediadownloader.com -
How can i delete a website made in iWeb from MobileMe but not from iWeb
The problem is that I have made changes to several pages (almost all of them) on my site and since the changes my site no longer displays correctly in Internet Explorer.
I have looked in the IE CSS file and the CSS file for IE is completely messed up and would take a long time to correct by correcting the code for every page, so I decided just to delete the whole site from MobileMe and then republish it as a new site, rather then as an altered site.
The problem is I don't want to delete the site from iWeb, because it has took me months to build it and I don't want to have to start again. I just want to delete the site from MobileMe, so I can republish it as a new site (and hopefully correct the screwed up code).
So how can I delete a website created in iWeb and published on MobileMe from MobileMe without deleting it from iWeb.
Huge thanks
JayHey thanks for your reply, unfortunately I have already tried to delete my site from iDisk >> Web >> Sites. But it said that i didn't have permission and it wouldn't delete the files.
I am loged in as an Admin and I still cant delete them
Thanks again

I can access a function in a package using OCI drivers but not PDO drivers
Hello all, i am a newbie to Oracle and its drivers for PHP. I would like to use PDO, and I have my database activity in packages, which have procedures and functions. My package has overloaded functions and that has been giving me a tough time with these drivers. So one signature of my function get_data contains a four arguments and all four are numbers, while another signature of get_data has the first two as numbers and the next two as varchar2. So when I try to access this function which is part of a package, I am able to retrieve data, and the driver I am using is OCI8, but when I try to do the same with PDO, it does not work. It gives me this error,
*General error: 6553 OCIStmtExecute: ORA-06553: PLS-307: too many declarations of 'GET_DATA' match this call (/var/www/php-5.3.3/ext/pdo_oci/oci_statement.c:146)' in /var/www/pdo_check.php:251 Stack trace: #0 /var/www/pdo_check.php(251): PDOStatement->execute() #1 /var/www/pdo_check.php(345): dbPDO->execPackage2() #2 {main} thrown in /var/www/pdo_check.php on line 251 *
I got this error earlier with OCI drivers, then I added the datatype while binding the values.
Has anybody had this headache earlier??
##Works
*$qu = oci_parse($connect, 'select pack.get_data(:p1,:p2,:p3,:p4)as rc from dual');
$p1 = (int)121;
$p2 = (int)222;
$p3 = (int)324;
$p4 = (int)001;
oci_bind_by_name($qu,":p1",$p1,10,OCI_B_INT);
oci_bind_by_name($qu,":p2",$p2,10,OCI_B_INT);
oci_bind_by_name($qu,":p3",$p3,10,OCI_B_INT);
oci_bind_by_name($qu,":p4",$p4,10,OCI_B_INT);
oci_execute($qu) or die("did not execute");
$r = oci_fetch_array($qu);*
##Does not work
*$sql = 'select pack.get_data(:p1,:p2,:p3,:p4) from dual';
$result = $this->dbConnect->prepare($sql);
$p1 = (int)2;
$p2 = (int)2;
$p3 = (int)2;
$p4 = (int)6;
$result->bindParam(':p1', $p1, PDO::PARAM_INT);
$result->bindParam(':p2', $p2, PDO::PARAM_INT);
$result->bindParam(':p3', $p3, PDO::PARAM_INT);
$result->bindParam(':p4', $p4, PDO::PARAM_INT);
$result->execute();*
I am still perplexed why is PDO giving me an error, when I have virtually mentioned everything is asks for?I think the only person who can really answer this question is Chris Jones. For my money I tend to steer clear of PDO as it is a bit quirky ( at least in my experience ) and it does not support reference cursors.

The PDF docs opened in Firefox are very light and the color of print is multicolored shaded. Different parts of display different shades of any color but black. Just loaded newest Adobe Reader, did not help. Previously running Reader 9. Haven't had a problem till Firefox 6. If I fool with the Window Color in 7 I can effect the PDF doc. Lowering saturation level to nothing helps, but doesn't fix problem.

I am connected to the internet, but all tabs are closed. Now I want to open a new tab, But Firefox pops-up with "Firefox is already running, but not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system". Does anyone here know how to fix this? Thank´s, BL.

A few times a weekFirefox is shutting down windows I want to remain open. Example: I am done viewing one window. I click the X to shut the window and it shuts two windows. Every single time, attempt to close one windows, two windows close. Lately, I have been opening several windows with nothing but google search, just so it will shut that window and not something else I want to remain open. I could understand this if I was using tabs, but I am not. This has been going on for over two weeks. I don't like going back to history to open a window, I did not want closed in the first place. Isn't that what 'Windows' is all about? Any ideas?

I upgraded recently my firefox browser on my home computer which still runs Windows XP. I can no longer find websites thru firefox, tho, I can load websites through a google or yahoo search.
The firefox browser won't download secure or unsecure site. I type in the full name of the site, and it just hangs. I do not receive an error message.
Internet explorer continues to work fine on the computer.
I emptied my cookies and search history and updated the proxy setting to "no proxy". I still have the same problem.
I tried to uninstall and reinstall firefox with the hopes of changing the initial settings (to see if I should have disabled or abled more of the boxes). Unfortunately, the program didn't fully uninstall .. and the firefox reverts to where it was the last time I logged on.A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

i cant open many website with firefox, there say filter not let open this site, but when i open they with internet explorer not have any problem.
Could you post an example of the filter message?
This article has more information on the filters built in to Firefox: [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/phishing-protection/ Firefox Phishing and Malware Protection].
It's possible that you also have a Firefox add-on, or external software, that is filtering what you see. However, we don't have enough information to help identify it yet. If you want to review a list of your add-ons, you can find them under: Help > Troubleshooting Information. -
I want to be the only one who can access my profile, so how to create passwords for profiles (NOT for websites) ?
thanksMaybe use the portable Firefox version on a USB stick if you want to prevent access to your profile.<br />
Solutions that use an extension can easily be bypassed by starting in [[Safe mode]].<br />
Otherwise you need to locate the Firefox profile folder on an encrypted drive.
