IMac G5 Safari 4.1.3 will not load yahoo, youtube, google, facebook

We have an old iMac G5, running Safari 4.1.3. It did work great, until few days ago when Safari stopped loading sites like yahoo, youtube, facebook. It does load perfect and fast sites like apple.com, amazon, cnn, so it's not an internet connection issue.
We've tried removing cookie.plist, plug-ins, re-booting, but still, it's not working!
Any other suggestions?
Thank you!

    This just happened to me. Apparently yahoo mail just implemented something.. Check out this message from yahoo mail.

    I use 10.3.9 and I have no idea why yahoo mail stopped working today. I have firefox installed on my machine. BTW - firefox is able to serf the web without issues on all of my sites. I often wonder why apple wanted to build a browser, why not just use firefox and contribute to it's development for the mac environment?

  • Just got a new iphone 4s and it will not load yahoo emails. gives message of the connection to the server failed

    new iphone 4s will not load yahoo emails, gives message of the connection to the server failed

    Perhaps you should use this iPhone email setup assistant to re-enter your Yahoo account settings.  If you do that, simply go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and delete your current Yahoo account, then use the assistant to re-establish it.

  • Safari 7.0.3 will not load

    I got the lastest update for safari (7.0.3) and it will not load anypages, and when it does it takes like 3 minutes then when i click on something on that page another 3 minutes or longer. Is there anywhere I can download the previous version of safari? Apple needs to look into this because I have looked it up and it seems other people are having the same problem.

    Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them. In that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
    Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If not, do that now and see whether there's any change.
    If your browser is Safari, then from the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    and confirm. Any change?
    If you're running OS X 10.9 or later, select the Advanced tab in the Preferences window and uncheck the box marked
    Stop plug-ins to save power
    Any change?
    Quit and relaunch the browser. Any change?
    Log out and log back in. Any change?
    Enable Private Browsing in the Safari menu. Any change?
    Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
    If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
    If Parental Controls is active for any user, please turn it off and test. Any change?
    If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
    Again, if only Safari is involved, open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Safari, if it's checked. Any change?
    Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
    If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
    If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?

  • Safari browser on Mac will not load

    MMy Safari will not load telling me to contact Microsoft ?

    It's a JavaScript scam that only affects your web browser, and only temporarily. There are several ways to recover.
    1. Some of those scam pages can be dismissed very easily. Press the key combination command-W to close the tab or window. A huge box will pop up. Press the return key and both the box and the page will close. If that doesn't happen, continue.
    2. Press and hold command-W. You may hear repeating alert sounds. While holding the keys, click the OK button in the popup. A different popup may appear, which you can cancel out of as usual.
    3. From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    and uncheck the box marked Enable JavaScript. Leave the preferences dialog open.
    Close the malicious window or tab.
    Re-enable JavaScript and close the preferences dialog.
    4. If the Preferences menu item is grayed out, quit Safari. Force quit if necessary. Relaunch it by holding down the shift key and clicking its icon in the Dock. None of the windows and tabs will reopen.
    After closing the malicious page, from the menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    to get rid of any cookies or other data left by the server. Open your Downloads folder and delete anything you don't recognize.

  • Safari 2.0.4 will not load pages after automatic update

    I'm running OS 10.4.7 and after the latest auto update that brought me up to OS 10.4.7, updated iTunes to 6.05, and updated Quicktime to 7.1.2, Safari completely stopped working.
    The problem is that it no longer loads webpages and simply gives a blank error message saying the server stopped responding.
    To solve this problem I searched the forums and tried all the following things that others had suggested:
    1. Reset Safari
    2. Manually cleared out the cache and history.
    3. Cleared out cookies.
    4. Turned off form autofilling
    5. Disabled Java
    6. Deleted the Safari preference file and had a new one automatically built
    None of these things have solved the problem. I'm wondering if anyone has had any similar problems and if so, have you been able to resolve them? I'd really like to run Safari again, but it's looking a bit hopeless.

    Yeah I tired all that too. I even tired downloading Camino but still same problem. My ISP said to just restat my modem, that didn't seem to help. Is this because of 10.4.7? and is Apple addressing the issue?
    I would like to try Firefox, but all the browers ie; IE, Safari and Camino will not let me naviagate to the page let alone download it.

    You need the latest version of Adobe Flash installed first of all: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    To update Java, go to Windows Control Panel | Java | Update Now (I don't know if that's the way you did it before or not).
    As regards your mobile, see [[Will Firefox work on my mobile device?]]

  • IMac SMC Firmware Update 1.1 will not load. Help!

    I have just purchased an iMac with a Fusion drive. The App Store tells me to install "iMac SMC Firmware Update 1.1." I have tried to do so several times, leaving the computer alone until it restarts itself. But the update does not seem to have taken place: the udate is listed among the updates accomplished, but it continues to appear at the top of the screen as the available update and the badge for an update still appears in the App Store icon.
    Any suggestions? Is that a faulty upgrade? Have I got an faulty Mac?

    But isn't the Fusion drive in part a flash drive?
    And if I don't need it, how do I dismiss it? Will my App Store Icon forever have a red badge telling me I have an unneeded update to install?

    Anyone else having a problem with Safari and ESPN.com????

    Hello Greg,
    Just loaded the site you mentioned with no problems at all. There could be several reasons why you are experiencing problems....
    Try some basic maintenance with an Application called Macjanitor
    Delete the icons folder from here...
    Home folder > Library > Safari > Icons. ( don't have Safari running when you delete this file )

  • Unable to login to accounts bank of america. Safari works fine Firefox will not load. says site is unavalible try later.

    try to login to Bank of America account. I am able to get to the account summery screen but can not go to any account. Message comes up "site is busy or not avalible", this happens every time I try to try . I went to Safari and can login and go to all accounts.

  • Just updated Safari in 10.7.5 and now it will not load (beach ball)

    I am running 10.7.5, and I do not want to update to 10.9 at the moment. I updated Safari, and now it will not load. It gets stuck at a white screen with the beach ball of death. Any ideas? Thanks.

    I uninstalled Glims. That solved the problem.

  • Macbook Pro connects to campus wifi but suddenly Safari/Mozilla will not load anymore.

    I've had my MacBook Pro for a while now, it's still running Leopard, but that hasn't been a problem. I woke up yesterday morning and the Airport says its connected to the campus network, but when I open Safari/Mozilla/Mail, it will not load, and eventually says that the server will not respond.
    I have connected to this network for over a year with no changes/problems
    it literally happened overnight. I left my computer to sleep like I always do and when I woke it up in the morning, the internet wouldn't load.
    internet works when I use an Ethernet cable
    my roommate is sitting next to me with her newer macbook pro connected to the same network that is fucntioning just fine. So it's not the network (not that I could do anything to it if it was)
    I've restarted, turned off Airport and turned it back on, deleted network preferences, put in the exact same IP address that my roommate has (hers is different from mine, but mine will not connect with the one she is connected to)...
    HELP?

    I solved my issue and I believe it was router related. I have a router through Verizon and their Fios service. My router was old so I caled for a replacement. when I received thereplacement I switched it the router to only accept 802.11n and this did the trick. Problem solved, stupid router.

  • Disney Jr coloring pages will not load using Firefox on my iMac, using Safari the pages will load.

    I have a Apple iMac desktop computer that is about a year old, when using Firefox to access the Disney Jr. website the only problem I have is the pages that need to be printed to color will not load, the rest of the site works as it should. When I use Safari to access the same website there are no problems, I prefer to use Firefox as my browser of choice.

    Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Firefox > Preferences > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • Safari will not load numerous pages

    Ever since the 10.4.9 update I've had trouble with Safari not loading certain pages. Yahoo!, YouTube and numerous other pages just will not load. The problem carries over to other browsers as well. I've tried numerous things to resolve this issue. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find a new set of X509anchors and X509certificates to see if installing them would fix things.
    Does this sound like a reasonable approach to the problem?

    I have had the same problem since zeroing and doing a clean install on my imac. Some webpages load, others don't, and I cannot see a pattern related to page content (e.g. flash). I use aiport express, but even when using the cable, the problem persists. My laptop PC (sorry) connects to all pages without delay, so the problems lies with the mac.
    I've tried emptying browser cache, changing DNS settings, proxy settings (using passive ftp mode etc), resetting router, resetting airport express, changing safari mtu to 1492, disabling firewall, and Internet Connect detects no problems.
    Reinstall osx and hope for the best?
