I cannot open a website on Safari

Hi everybody,
I am the moderator of a forum, and the forum is pretty important to me and as of four days ago, I cannot access the forum at all. I've tried at different times but it will not let me access the forum at all. I've tried it on Safari, Firefox, Internet Explorer, and Netscape but none of them will let me access it. Does anybody have any ideas on how to help me? If anybody wants to check it out, the addy is www.*********.net I am friends with the administrator and she doesn't know what would be wrong either. If it matters, my ISP is WildBlue, should I contact them and see if they can help me? Is there anything I can do in my internet options?
<Edited by Moderator>
Thanks for your help. I've had this Mac for about 4 months now after using PCs for 10+ years, and I LOVE it =)

Hi
Welcome to Apple Discussions. Glad to hear your Mac experience has been a good one.
Do you have any 3rd party internet blocker app. installed on your system? If yes, that would be a place to look.
If not, are you seeing an error prompt, such as "cannot connect to server"?

  • Unable to open a website with Safari

    I am unable to open one particular website with Safari. I have OSX 10.8.2 Mountain Lion. I have been reading all the related suggestions & downloaded & installed JavaForOSX.dmg and jdk-7u9. Still I cannot open this website (http://ctalanon.org). Can anyone assist me with this problem?

    Triple-click the line below to select it, then copy it to the Clipboard (command-C):
    www.ctalanon.org
    Launch the Network Utility application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Network Utility in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    Select the Lookup tab and paste (command-V) into the address field. Press return. Post the output that appears below – the text, please, not a screenshot.
    Step 2
    Select the Ping tab and do the same.

  • After upgrading iPad 2 to iOS 7 , cannot open new tabs in safari . When pushing on " " , Safari close the application .

    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple. 
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

    HI..
    If you are using Adobe Reader ...
    Try uninstalling the current copy of Adobe Reader first.
    Best to use a utility to do this to make sure all the associated files are removed as well >  Download AppCleaner for Mac - Uninstall your apps easily. MacUpdate.com
    Then reinstall >  http://get.adobe.com/reader/
    Quit then relaunch Safari to test.

  • When opening FF I gert the message "Can not initiate the security component of this programm"When I continue I cannot open any website except my own homepage.

    Below you can find the complete message (in Dutch) that I receive "Kan de beveiligingscomponent van de toepassing niet initialiseren. De meest waarschijnlijke oorzaak is problemen met bestanden in de profielmap van uw toepassing. Controleer of deze map geen lees-/schrijfbeperkingen heeft en uw harde schijf niet vol of bijna vol is. Het wordt aangeraden de toepassing af te sluiten en het probleem op te lossen.

    Rename secmod.db (secmod.db.old) in the Firefox Profile Folder in case there is a problem with the file.<br />
    You may have to rename cert8.db (cert8.db.old) as well.
    Firefox will create new files.

  • Cannot open adobe flash in safari

    I have tried uninstalling flash, deleting safari.plist in library, re-installing flash v9 and still cannot
    open adobe flash in safari. Anyone have other ideas to help resolve this issue?

    These are the downloads and the settings you need in order to view/hear pretty much everything that the net can throw at you: The setup described below has proved repeatedly successful on both PPC and Intel macs, but nothing in life carries a guarantee!
    It is known to work in the great majority of cases with Safari 3.0.4, QT 7.3 and OS 10.4.11. (If you are running Leopard, ensure that all plug-ins have been updated for OS 10.5)
    Assuming you already run Tiger versions OS 10.4.9 or above (this has not yet been verified with Leopard) and have Quicktime 7.2 or above, and are using Safari 2 or 3, download and install (or re-install even if you already had them) the latest versions, suitable for your flavor of Mac, of:
    RealPlayer 10 for Mac from http://forms.real.com/real/player/blackjack.html?platform2=Mac%20OS%20X&product= RealPlayer%2010&proc=g3&lang=&show_list=0&src=macjack
    Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/wmcomponents.mspx (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft)
    Perian from http://perian.org/
    Adobe FlashPlayer from http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
    (You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. This: http://www.macworld.co.uk/news/index.cfm?email&NewsID=19845 may also interest you.)
    In Quicktime Preferences, under advanced, UNcheck Enable Flash, and under Mime settings/Miscellananeous only check Quicktime HTML (QHTM).
    See also the very informative post from QuickTimeKirk dated Dec 3, 2007 in this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1268489&tstart=0
    In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them).
    Now go to Safari Preferences/Security, and tick the boxes under Web Content (all 4 of them).
    Lastly open Audio Midi Setup (which you will find in the Utilities Folder of your Applications Folder) and click on Audio Devices. Make sure that both Audio Input and Audio Output, under Format, are set to 44100 Hz.
    Important: Now repair permissions and restart.
    The world should now be your oyster!
    You should also consider having the free VLC Player from http://www.videolan.org/ in your armory, as this plays almost anything that DVD Player might not.

    It sounds as though a script on the site, or an advertisement, is not working quite right...
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    (You also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now")
    (2) Remove the site's cookies using either of these. Save any pending work first.
    While viewing a page on the site:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • Cannot open adobe files in safari

    Help ... I cannot open pdf files in safari. Any ideas how I can fix this please?

    Back up all data.
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, there should be a setting in its preferences such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected. Otherwise do as follows.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

    Try to update to the latest Firefox 17.0.x version.
    *Help > About Firefox
    See:
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/update-firefox-latest-version
    The Firefox 12.0 version that you currently run is no longer supported with security updates
    You can create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Creating a profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
    If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.
