  • Cannot Access Certain Websites from MBP

    I've tried setting DNS to 8.8.8.8 as well as connecting via Ethernet as well as with my wireless broadband dongle, and still no luck. In fact, when I connect my dongle my internet connection goes even worse and I can hardly load any websites at all!
    It's just certain websites in particular that won't load, however they load fine on other devices (e.g. my iPhone) even when they're connected to the same network.
    Also I've tried removing my 'Wi-Fi' location under Sys Prefs and adding it again.
    I can access all my usual sites with no issues (e.g. Twitter, Facebook, YouTube etc, all the big ones) it's just the occasional small scale website. I'm a web designer you see and it keeps happening on websites that I am working on.
    And before you ask, these websites have all been hosted on different servers, it's happened on a total of 3 so far. All within the last couple of weeks.
    I've noticed tonight that this particular client's 3 websites are all hosted on the same server as he has a reseller account and I can't load any of them on my MBP. However other devices load them fine and my MBP can still load other websites.
    I've also tested by loading the websites in Adobe Browserlab and they load fine through that.
    Also I've tried rebooting my router and the other thing I use to make the network 'wireless' (I forget what it's called, I'm not the hardware type as I'm sure you've guessed).
    It's as if there's something about these websites that my MBP really doesn't like. However that's not to say it NEVER loads them, the problem seems intermittent.
    I was loading this client's websites fine tonight right up until about an hour ago when they just seemed to cut out altogether. But as I say, other devices load them fine.
    Any ideas what I can do to fix it? This is very annoying as it is preventing me from simply doing my job.

  • T400s and T500 experiencing slow response time accessing certain websites from within our network

    Hello there.... we have some Lenovo T400s running Windows 7 and T500 running WinXP Pro that are experiencing slow response time when trying to access certain website from within our company network (particularly this global crossing Web meeting, google maps): https://core1.callinfo.com/interface/guest.jsp?host=globalcrossing ... it takes 10-15 minutes before it loads the meeting login screen and same response time for google maps to respond as well... the thing is, other Lenovo T400s, T61, and other HP desktop machines that are connected to the same network in our company does not experience this slow response time... HOWEVER, when these problematic T400s / T500 laptops are connected to external network (e.g. home DSL, hotel DSL/Cable modem) the problem goes away.   Our NETWORK ran tests to monitor traffic to the websites from our company's network but seem to connect just fine... just wondering if anybody out there experienced the same problem and know of a solution.  By the way, the two newer T400s that are experiencing the slow response time have the following BIOS version 1.11 (6HET26WW) and BIOS version 1.09 (6HET24WW).  Then a T400s that is also connected to the same network but not experiencing the problem has a BIOS version of 1.02 (6HET17WW - running WinXP Pro).   NOTE: We also connected a Linksys USB wireless adapter to connect to our wireless network in the company but same problem - and problem occurs even when connected via network cable.  Your feedback will be greatly appreciated.

  • ICloud works on my iPhone but I cannot access my mail from my macbook.

    iCloud works on my iPhone but I cannot access my mail from my macbook. I keep getting a server error message;
    There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for account “iCloud” or try again.
    The server returned the error: The iCloud IMAP server “p03-imap.mail.me.com” doesn’t support External (TLS client Certificate) authentication. Verify your account settings and try again.
    I've done everything possible and nothing seems to work. Any suggestions.?????

    Have you tried to completely sign out of iCloud and then adding it back again? By the way, a software update to the latest version of OSX could also help to fix it (think about it, because Mavericks is a free upgrade).

  • I cannot print in color from my MacBook Pro

    I cannot print in color from my MacBook Pro to my hpdeskjet 6122

    hi FalconMom,
    EWS stands for Embedded Web Server.  You will be able to access the printer EWS if it is connected to the same network as your PC or notebook.  Here are the instructions to connect to EWS.
    Open the embedded Web server
    You can access the embedded Web server via either the network or Wi-Fi Direct.
    To open the embedded Web server via network
    NOTE: The printer must be on a network and must have an IP address. The IP address for the
    printer can be found by pressing the Wireless icon or by printing a network configuration page.
     In a supported Web browser on your computer, type the IP address or hostname that has been assigned to the printer.   For example, if the IP address is 192.168.0.12, type the following address into a Web browser:
    http://192.168.0.12.
    To open the embedded Web server using Wi-Fi Direct
     From the Home screen, touch (Wireless) and then touch (Settings).
     If the display shows that Wi-Fi Direct is Off, touch Wi-Fi Direct and then switch it on.
     From your wireless computer, turn wireless on, search for and connect to the Wi-Fi Direct name,
    for example: DIRECT-**- HP Officejet-5740 (where ** are the unique characters to identify your
    printer). Enter the Wi-Fi Direct password when prompted.
     In a supported Web browser on your computer, type the following address: http://192.168.223.1.

  • How do I transfer a downloaded offline website from my macbook pro to an ipad2?

    I want my sales team to use an ipad2 to sell and present our products.  I have a website built that fully works offline which is our catalog. 
    Now I want to transfer that website from my macbook pro onto a 'master ipad' so I can then sync up the other ipads with the 'master ipad'.
    How do I transfer the site to the ipad?

    Have you tried resetting the iPhone and rebooting the Mac?  I don't think iPhoto has an import size limitation, but if you still have trouble then perhaps using a cloud service like Dropbox as an intermediary will get the job done.

  • How do i block website from my macbook pro

    how do i block website from my macbook pro?

    It's an very old and simple question! There are two ways that you can use to block websites on your Macbook Pro:
    1. Enable the Parental Control on your Macbook Pro, choose the app you don't want your kids to use.
    2. Install the Internet filter software for Mac that can help you block any unwanted websites automatically.

    You only bought it four months ago, so it's still under warrantly.
    Call Applecare or call your nearest Applestore to make an appointment. Tell them your mac has serious technical issues, describe them shortly.

  • Cannot access certain websites?

    I have troubling accessing certain websites on my Mac. I started using them about 4 days ago and it was all fine until yesterday I try to open them and they don't work. I know I didn't change anything with my wi-fi or anything like that. My wi-fi works just fine because my other sites with other stuff work fine.  I asked my frined if he could access them from his computer and it works for him. I've tried different browsers such as safari, chrome, firefox but they all give me the same message  "the connection was reset". I can access the websites through proxywebrowsing. com, but I can't use certain features
    At this point I don't know what to do. I've tried to google for a solution but they all were confusing to me and just didn't work. I think from what I undnerstand i have to change something in my network settings, but how and what am I supposed to do there? I am a newby when it comes to fixing network, so if you have a suggestion in trying to change something please tell me how to get there. Please Help. Thanks!

    Thanks for helping me figure out how to turn off ipv6 on Mountain Lion, but it doesn't change anything. I don't know like I've stated in my description I was able to access the site just 2 days ago and I didn't change anything. Also why can I access the site from sites like proxybrowsing.com but not my own web browser,
    Sorry, I have never had to fix a problem like this, so I am obviously really new and not understanding.

  • Cannot access certain websites (in particular the ...

    I have had an ongoing issue where I am unable to access certain websites on my BT broadband connection.
    Example sites include:
    rsjoomla
    Dell
    I know the problem is not my PC, software firewall or router/hub.  If use a free proxy service on the internet that hides my BT Broadband IP address I can access these sites.
    I am an IT Manager who is knowledgeable on networks, firewalls etc so I don't want to have to go through basic troubleshooting steps on my computer or hub.  It affects all systems connected to my home broadband and when I take my laptops and tablets to other networks I can access these sites.
    Can anyone help me here?
    Thanks
    Ross

    Hi mcintyro,
    Can you please do a nslookup and a tracert (traceroute) for both rsjoomla and dell
    Also do you have BT Retail's (Consumer) network parental controls on? You can check by going to your MyBT.
    If the network parental controls are on or active (but not configured) then you need to make sure you are using the HomeHub's/routers' DNS address.
    Thanks

  • Cannot access certain websites on any web browser

    Recently, for the last month or two, my mac won't let me look at certain websites. (i.e apple.com, hulu.com, some yahoo.com sites.) Cannot find a solution on any forums yet that work for me. The internet works fine on the other computers in the house and I can access those sites with no problems. I have snow leopard on my Macmini, and I tried reinstalling it and the websites worked ONE time, then if I closed the browser the sites would come up with the error, cannot connect to the internet. Or in the case of the Hulu site, show text only with no formatting. I also tried reinstalling Java, and it did the same thing, would let me see the website once and then not again. Not sure what else I can try. Does anyone have any suggestions? Is there some update i have not installed yet that does not come up in my updates? Thanks for all help.

    Same for me, started with Facebook on all browsers (FF, Chrome, Safari)a month or two from now, and today twitter and this very support.apple.com + some software like ClamXav cannot connect anymore to update their database, etc.
    In VirtualBox with Ubuntu and VMWare Fusion Win XP : both with FF, same problem, same websites / IP
    _It is neither the router nor the DNS_ since my wife's computer works fine on the same network with all those websites and apps (PowerPC 10.5.8)
    _It is not the firewall either_ on or off, it does not change a thing.
    So far, I managed to make it all work (even apps like ClamXav) by using Vidalia TOR + Tor add-on on FF || Tor Browser (Safari under Namaroka) works great too.
    Tor makes browsing a little bit slower and anonymity can have its drawbacks, so it is not a long-term solution.
    So for those in need of a quick access to their websites :
    www.torproject.org > Download > Tor Browser Bundle for OS X Intel
    Now, why is that it works with Tor and not without ?
    What to do to solve the situation ?
    TIA for any help !

  • How do I upload a video to play on my website from my MacBook Pro?

    How can I take video clips on my MacBook Pro and upload them to my website and then embed the video with a video player so that visitors to my website can see and play them from specific webpages on my site and on my blog?
    Is there a specific software program I need?
    I've been told I need a Flash Video player uploaded to a file on my website but I can't figure out what that means in terms of finding a Flash Video Player I can first download to my MacBook and then upload to my website FIle Manager, then figure out how to upload the file so that it connects to that Flash Video Player that is on my website.
    This is all very confusing and frustrating to me and I need a solution as quick and easy as possible.
    THanks,
    Skip

    ... I want to host the video solely on my website with its own video player (stop, play, pause buttons, etc.).
    So, my question is how do I do that, what type of software, video player or html code, etc. do I need to have to make that happen.
    that is +a little+ beyond my skills, allthough I did that in the very beginnings of some of my websites a few hundred years ago And it is a little beyond the topic of this board..
    to offer at last a few remarks:
    • video files are huge.. check your contract, how much webspace your provider offers you.. (1 GB as a start)
    • due to size, your guests will generate lots of traffic/bandwidth.. check your contract, how much traffic your provider allows you.. (a few GBs per months)
    • the usual dilemma - what codec? YouTube made flv popular (=compatible with 99% of computers, 0% compatible with smart-phones and iPads..); actually, we're (and YT..) in transition to html5, which allows the more lean and 'better' h264 codec.. but do your guests use 'modern' browsers as Safari/FF/GC...? Do you have to offer a 'switch', flv/new? ...
    • you have to upload your encoded files to your web-host, add some lines of code which generates a 'player'-experience (= tons of advice and free downloads around the net...); 'link' the code to your site-folders containing the videos - done.
    • webspace and traffic
    • decision to encode in what ..
    • encoding video, probably wth some 3rd party encoder
    • some 'website generator software' which allows manual coding for embedding your 'player'-code
    => now you see, HOW convenient iWeb is...
    .. which, by the way, supports upload/FTP to 'foreign'/non-MobileMe websites..
    perhaps you should try this very Mac-like way as a start..

  • Cannot access itunes account with my Macbook pro

    Hello.
    My macbook pro died recently and I had to reinstall the system. After reinstalling, I upgraded to mavericks. I lost iphoto and could not even access backup (time machine) disk. Anyway, I am able to access my itunes account through the Apps store or Ibooks.
    However when I try to access my itunes account/authorise my computer I get the message "We could not complete your itunes request. The itunes store is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."
    Funny because I could access itunes through my ipad and iphone.
    Now, I could not sync my phone or ipad with my macbook without deleting their content! I could not even back them up through my macbook without deleting them.
    I could not access my last time machine back up before my macbook died.
    Any ideas what I could do?
