I can't log to certain sites (facebook, hotmail) anymore.

I've tried almost all of your tips. The problem is solved if I use Mozilla in the safe mode. However, none of the next suggested steps (disable themes, extensions etc...) worked. The first time this occurred, it was solved by chance when a website asked to download some new java"thing". Also, consider my operating system is windows 2000

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems
See [[Basic Troubleshooting|#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins"
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

Can't Connect To Certain Sites iPod Touch 2nd Gen

Hello.
I have an iPod Touch 2nd Generation, and I use an Arris modem to connect to the Internet. I do not have a router.
I've recently moved to a new location. I had to switch to a different ISP and modem. The internet has been working completely fine on all of my devices connected to the modem wirelessly except for my iPod Touch.
The best way I can describe the problem is: I cannot connect to certain sites. Due to Apple's complete abandonment of the older iPod Touch generations, I don't use it for anything but Facebook for when I am home and don't want to be sitting at the computer. That being said, there are only 3 sites I can report not working. Google, YouTube and Facebook all don't work for me. However, I have on rare occasion actually been able to connect to Google even though I haven't changed any settings. I can confirm that Reddit and Yahoo do work. I haven't tried other sites. The message I get when I try to connect to these sites is, "Safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding."
The steps I have taken so far (that I can remember) in hopes of fixing this problem are listed below:
Restored my iPod via iTunes to factory settings.
Restored my iPod to previously backed up data.
Reset network settings in iPod settings.
Disconnected and reconnected to modem wireless signal.
Turned off iPod and held down Home and Power button for 10 seconds or so.
Downloaded Facebook Messenger app to attempt to log in that way (did not work).
Reset modem.
Probably some other things too.
I would appreciate any help you fine folks over here could provide as I have no other options to turn to.
Thanks a lot.

Unfortunately, I have no other available networks to test it on. I can say that it was working before I moved. I can connect to the sites completely fine on all other devices connected to the same network. Unless there is some setting on the modem that specifically stops only my iPod Touch I figured it was something on the iPod causing the problem.

Safari will not load pages after logging into certain sites

Mac OS X 10.4.11, Safari 3.1 running on a Power Macintosh G4 "Quicksilver" 2002. All software updates are installed.
After I log into certain web sites (Apple Support Discussions being one of them), Safari simply stops loading pages. It will "try" briefly but each page comes up blank. In fact, they don't even appear to download.
This has been going on for a while now. I can't even remember when it started. I have done fresh installations of Mac OS X on to a clean disk to try and solve the problem. This has not resulted in any improvement. I am not using any extensions or modifiers.
As an experiment, I've tried a few Webkit Nightly Builds. Those did not work any better.
On some sites, such as eBay, Safari will put an empty file on the desktop. eBay is a prime example--after I sign in, an empty file called eBayIsapi.dll appears on the desktop.
Seemingly this has been reported other places. What I didn't find was a fix. Is there anything that can be done to resolve this problem?

I've just given up after several versions of Safari doing the same thing. It seems to be a bad interaction with Websense web filtering blocking some things that Safari expects to be able to download and process.
I don't even use Safari any more because of this.

Can I log in a site only with HttpUrlConnection?

I'm trying to write a small program which help me to log into my Megaupload account and manage my own stuffs there. But I met a obstacle right from the start, login site.
After reading some of Sun's ["working with URLs" lesson|http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/networking/urls/index.html] and searching around, I've tried coding a small method to do this step. As the following:
try{
       URL mega = new URL("http://megaupload.com/?c=login");
       String data = URLEncoder.encode("login=1&
                                                        redir=1&
                                                        username=my_username&
                                                         password=my_password","UTF-8");
        HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection)mega.openConnection();
        connection.setRequestMethod("POST");
        connection.setRequestProperty("Host", "megaupload.com");
     connection.setRequestProperty("Cookie", cookie);
     connection.setRequestProperty("User-Agent", "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3 ( .NET CLR 3.5.30729)");
     connection.setRequestProperty("Accept", "text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8");
        connection.setRequestProperty("Accept-Language", "en-us, en;q=0.5");
     connection.setRequestProperty("Accept-Encoding", "gzip,deflate");
     connection.setRequestProperty("Accept-Charset", "ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7");
     connection.setRequestProperty("Keep-Alive", "115");
        connection.setRequestProperty("Connection", "keep-alive");
     connection.setRequestProperty("Referer", "http://megaupload.com/?c=login");
     connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
     connection.setReadTimeout(10000);
     connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Length", Integer.toString(data.getBytes().length));
     connection.setDoInput(true);
     connection.setDoOutput(true);
        DataOutputStream wr = new DataOutputStream(connection.getOutputStream());
     wr.writeBytes(data);
     wr.flush();
     wr.close();
       //Codes to reading the response from MU
}catch(Exception e){
}The headers i receipt was exactly the same as using Firefox, but the html body was always of the login site instead of redirecting to the home page with logged in status. After some failed attempts to solve it myself, I came up searching help from this forum, and realized that there's lots of problem similar to mine. However, not any of them is absolutely solved without using external libraries (HttpsClient). I wonder if I can do it only with existing internal libraries. If yes, what I need to do?
Thanks in advanced for help, and sorry for my bad English.

I modified it:
String data = URLEncoder.encode("login", "UTF-8") + "=" + URLEncoder.encode("1", "UTF-8");
data += "&" + URLEncoder.encode("redir", "UTF-8") + "=" + URLEncoder.encode("1", "UTF-8");
data += "&" + URLEncoder.encode("username", "UTF-8") + "=" + URLEncoder.encode("chihuongbk", "UTF-8");
data += "&" + URLEncoder.encode("password", "UTF-8") + "=" + URLEncoder.encode("19881026h", "UTF-8");
..........Got the same result. I think that's not the problem. I feel there is something missing. Can you tell me whether I can log in the site this way with some more modifications !??

Why can I log into some sites or view them correctly in Safari

I have tried a few times to view the weather web site for one of my local stations, KOMO news. I can view this easily on my desktop computer, but a different version of the web page/site comes up on my IPod that does not have the same info, and there is no way of getting to the info I want to view (the 7-day forecast). What is this? And is there a way I can override what I'm seeing to view the web page I want to see?
Also, last night I tried logging into a few sites -- my web mail and utility bill pay -- with username and password, and instead of logging me in, the pages would keep "reverting" back to blank fields that I'd try again, and again (not even showing an error message, which is usually what I get if I enter wrong info.). It never worked, though it did work this morning from my desktop computer. Why won't Safari/Ipod let me log onto these sites?
Regards, David

Thanks for the advice everyone.
Working through them without much luck...
New user didn't help.
Have turned off MacScan.
No improvement as yet.
P.S. Not sure how MacScan and Virus Barrier X would interact as they seem to do different things... I got both of these as apps in bundles so didnt really specifically buy them.
I can't see any proxy setting in network preferences so will need to go into virus barrier and check.
Reading the "recommended text" on Virus's for homework.
Tomorrow it will be Appzapper for them both if the patient shows no sign of improvement.

Can browse the internet, but can't log in to sites such as ebay/play/yahoo

Using either my Powerbook, or a friends MacBook, at his home using a 2WIRE wirelessly, or with ethernet cables, we can successfully browse any websites but as soon as we try to log in to sites requiring data from the Macs (passwords ect) the Mac's freeze on the pages as we try and log in.
As data seems to flow into the Macs no problem, it's my guess something is going wrong as the Mac's try to send data back out through the 2WIRE to websites requiring user names and passwords. Any ideas what to do?

Hi D P T!
You could completely reset Safari.
The instructions are for Tiger 10.4.x, as I have not installed my Leopard 10.5.x upgrade, but the process may be the same.
If some of what I posted is significantly different, or nonexistent in Leopard, post that info before proceeding.
To Reset Safari:
Load Safari.
From the Safari contextual menu, select Empty Cache
From the Safari contextual menu, select Reset Safari.
Check all options and click Reset.
When that has completed, quit Safari.
Navigate to HD > Users > Your Account > Library > Preferences:
In that folder, locate and move to the Trash, this file com.apple.Safari.plist, and if present, com.apple.Safari.plist.saved.
Navigate to HD > Users > Your Account > Library > Safari.
In that folder, move to the Trash all items except Bookmarks.plist.
Navigate to HD > Users > Your Account > Library > Caches > Safari.
In that folder, move to the Trash, any items that appear.
Empty the Trash.

Advice please! Installed Leopard update...now can't connect to certain site

Hi and thanks in advance for any help.
I updated Leopard (10.5.3) and Safari (3.1.1) with the apple patch a couple of days ago. After install, my MBP wouldn't connect to certain sites like Google or Yahoo. This happens for Safari, Firefox, and IE. Today, Google works but not GMAIL. The other sites remain inaccessible; I get the message "can't open page _ because it can't find the server _"
After the install and restart, I didn't change anything.
There are no firewalls in place.
I tried using openDNS and configuring the IP addresses.
Rebooted the MBP and the Router and AirPort Extreme.
Moved the System Config folder to the desktop and starting the browsers.
Also, my Mail can't access my GMail account.
Nothing has worked and I'm near my wits end.
I have a PC desktop that connects fine to everything so I don't think it's my ISP or the router.
I'm hoping for some help here in lieu of subjecting myself to phone **** or driving all the way to the Apple store.

Hi
Welcome to Apple Discussions
Seems like you covered most bases.
Rebooted the MBP and the Router and AirPort Extreme
If you didn't do so, unplug the router and AE. Wait about a minute, then plug-in again. Try Safari or another browser again. If no go I suggest reapplying the 10.5.3 Combo Update. Do not use the computer during the Install. Also, plug in the laptop.
When complete, "repair permissions" using Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.

Can't log into web sites on iPhone 4s.

I recently upgraded from an iPhone 3Gs to an iPhone 4s running iOS 5.0.1. I've recently noticed that on the iPhone, I can't log onto any web site that requires my ID and password. Basically the information is not recognized by the web site. I had no problem logging onto these same sites on the old 3Gs. I've checked that the IDs and passwords are being entered correctly.
If I use my iPad of my MacBook Pro, I can log onto theses same web sites without a problem. I've tried resetting the iPhone but that has not fixed the problem.
The log in problem only happens on the iPhone.
Web sites that don't require an ID and password seem to be working fine on the iPhone.
Has anyone else run across this issue? Any ideas how to correct it?
Regards,
David

Many web sites requiring username/password use cookies during authentication. Be sure Settings | Safari | Accept Cookies is set to something other than Never. I recommend From visited. I think iOS 5 defaults this setting to Never, a difference from prior iOS versions.

I am running a linux RedHat system and can not get to certain sites that are accessible to me under windows.

I am using commercial software from ANSYS and when I click on to the customer support I get an unable to connect error. I can get to all other sites. I try to change my preferences but there is no apply button and no preferences are saved

Insructions for deleting the CTLoader/Community toolbar:
Locate the files in bold print and move them to the Trash. The first five are in your root /Library
/Library/Application Support/Conduit
/Library/InputManagers/CTLoader
/Library/ScriptingAddtions (anything CTLoader realted)
/Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg
/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle
The next one is in your Home folder.
~/Library/Application Support/Conduit
When you're done, try Safari.

Keeps making me log back in to Facebook, Hotmail. Tried to install 5.0, and it CRASHED my PC!

1)I keep having to log back in to Facebook and Hotmail. And even when I do, it will make me do it again!
2)Tried to install 5.o so that I could use the feedback tool (really dumb that you have to have the latest version to give feedback...) and it crashed my PC! Not going to try it again. If issues persist I will go to Google chrome.

You will need to be reactivated on the BES. The password for that would come from your BES admin for your employer.
So...my best advice, get in touch with the Admin first.

Since the last upgrade two days ago, my scripting seems to be wonky on certain sites - Facebook, eBay, esp.

There are a lot of sites that just won't load since the last upgrade. I have tried to re-install Flash from both Adobe and RealPlayer, but get told that :
"Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because one of the following protocols (apt) isn't associated with any program or is not allowed in this context."
I can't download Flash, I can't reach major sites... what's happening? I have cleared my cache, it's not that. It's something weird that the last upgrade of FF has done.
Please fix it quickly?? Thank you.

Do Facebook, eBay, etc., give you a specific error message? That may lead to more specific suggestions.
Adobe and Real should not be using apt:// URLs with Windows systems. That is very odd.
Could you check your connection setting in the Options dialog:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > Network mini-tab > "Settings" button
The default setting of "Use system proxy settings" should piggyback on the IE/Windows "LAN" settings but you also could try "No proxy" to see whether that works any better.
Are you able to download a full installer for Firefox? If so, try this Clean Reinstall procedure to bypass any confused/conflicting files in Firefox's program folder:
(1) Download a full installer for Firefox 32 from https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ to a convenient location. (Scroll down to your preferred language.)
(2) Exit out of Firefox (if applicable). Do not uninstall Firefox.
(3) Rename the Mozilla Firefox program folder
''64-bit Windows:''
C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
to
C:\Program Files (x86)\OldFirefox
''32-bit Windows:''
C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
to
C:\Program Files\OldFirefox
(4) Run the installer you downloaded in #1. It should automatically connect to your existing settings.
Does Firefox behave more normally?
Note: Some plugins may exist only in that OldFirefox folder. If something essential is missing, look in these folders:
* OldFirefox\Plugins
* OldFirefox\browser\plugins

I can't log in to my facebook on Ipad setting

I have been trying to log into Facebook on my ipad, but doesn't work. I can't connect to my hayay game.
Ipad4 iOS7.0.6
I have tried resetting, rebooting, deleting but nothing changes.
There is no button for disable or enable.
Also I have been trying uninstall facebook, change password, change email, go to setting-security, but still doesn't work
Any solution?

Thanks for the screenshots Orasa.s. I am having the same exact problem. It's not a problem of forgetting a password.
I can login on my computer, iPhone app, iPad app, but when I try to login through the settings on my iPad, I get a message that says, 'username or password is incorrect'. I know what my password is.
I changed my password last week so I wouldn't be surprised if it's connected to the issue but I just can't figure out how to fix it. I have an app that connects to facebook through this feature so I can't use it until I resolve this.
No rush. It's just annoying.

2008 iMac (OS 10.8.5) freezes when logging in certain sites

Yesterday I was on Safari (latest version) filling out Craigslist sales information and my iMac screen went blank and my old Apple Cinema Display (second screen) locked up in a speckled blue/purple design. After a few seconds the Apple Display went blank too. Never happened before. Today I was logging onto a client's corporate site and the same thing happened. I'm able to go to other sites without a problem. Just turned off my Safari Extensions to see it that helps, but haven't experimented yet.

applepicker,
I would recommend running Apple's Hardware Test in extended mode at least 2-3 times. If errors appear then take the machine in for repair. The reason you need to run the test multiple times back to back is AHT does not always pick up errors on the first or even second pass, however when it finds them they are correct.
Good luck.

I can't log to certain sites (facebook, hotmail) anymore.
