Internet not working on Late 09 Air - working fine on all other devices

Hi
My Late 09 MacBook Air has been working a treat, not a spot of bother. All of a sudden, about 5 minutes ago, I've gone to go online to download some research papers (I'm *trying* to write an essay) and it won't load anything. Not even my Twitter app. It is connected to the right network, which is working absolutely fine on every other device in the house (windows computers, iphone etc). I'm stumped! I've turned it off and on twice, the way that us clueless folk do.. now I don't know what to do.
Any advice would be fantastic.
Thanks

I've done that, several times now, both on the router and the computer.
I started going through the "assist me" thing in network prefs, and all of a sudden, part way through, I suddenly have an IP address again. Ruddy thing!

  • Firefox is displaying unreadable characters when visiting some websites like digg. The sites work fine in all other browsers. I've tried all encoding options in firefox.

    Firefox is displaying unreadable characters when visiting some websites like digg. The sites work fine in all other browsers. I've tried all encoding options in firefox.

    This issue can be caused by an old bitmap version of the Helvetica or Geneva font or (bitmap) fonts that Firefox can't display in that size.
    Firefox can't display some old bitmap fonts in a larger size and displays gibberish instead.
    You can test that by zooming out (View > Zoom > Zoom Out, Ctrl -) to make the text smaller.
    Uninstall (remove) all variants of that not working font to make Firefox use another font or see if you can find a True type version that doesn't show the problem.

    This crap just happened to me this morning where I was sent 90% data plan threshold warningfrom AT&T (while sleeping at 7:09am) then 5 minutes later getting the Overage data plan warning from AT&T.  This is all while I'm asleep right next to my phone plugged into a (non-Apple) dock on my clock radio.
    Android has a limiting feature, why can't the "smart" guys at Apple learn from this??

  • "Window" drop-down shows no windows, if it's the 'primary' window; works fine with all other windows.

    The first time I opened Firefox after the 'upgrade' to 34.0.5, it restored all of my windows and tabs from the previous session, as it should. But the Window drop-down showed only "Minimize" and "Zoom", and didn't list any windows, not even the one I was in (I'll call it the 'primary', since it's the one that was listed first). If all of the windows were minimized, I would have nothing, but once I made a new window, all of the windows would show up in the Window drop-down. After some trial-and-error, it appears to happen *only* when the active window is the 'primary', it works fine when any other window is active.
    How can this be fixed?

    As I stated I already did this and it was not helpful. The drive is not near capacity, but I could not give you an exact answer on how full it is. I know my data is still there as I can see items but just cannot access any windows or menu items as no text is displayed.

  • Access to a site from the Internet not working, but is for other sites on the same SP

    Greetings,
    My environment:
    SP 2013 Enterprise w/ SP1 installed
    2 servers in the farm, 1 for SQL, 1 for SP
    Both servers are VMs running on Hyper-V, SQL is a bit underpowered when it comes to memory, SP is fine
    5 web applications running, including a MySites web app and Central Admin (I've seen where separate web apps isn't the recommended configuration any more, but, this is how it was done when setup)
    All sites run using SSL (443), same NIC, using host headers, pretty standard stuff (I think)
    Claims authentication on all but Central Admin
    Central Admin is firewalled off to all but a select few
    1 to 1 correspondence between web apps and content databases
    Other than MySites, all sites have either 1 or 2 site collections (search is in a separate site collection on 2 of the sites); MySites has many more site collections
    So, site A, site B, site C, and site M are all supposed to be available from the Internet (with SSL and authentication) and also from the internal network. For site A, C, and M, this is true, no problem. Site B however doesn't work when coming in from the
    Internet, just internally. I've received multiple reports of this from some of my users around the country, and I've been able to replicate it on my computers.
    IIS just gives a blank page, no messages, no login. Chrome does present a login box, and will log into the site and work. This is from a laptop that is a part of our domain with cached credentials, but not directly connected to our network or using
    our VPN. A non-domain laptop without cached credentials prompts me to login, as it should, and seems to work. The domain laptop will use the cached credentials to auto-authenticate to A, C, and M, but not B.
    I'm using IE 11. I've tried putting the site into Compatibility mode, no joy. I've added the site to the Trusted Sites list, no joy. I don't have IE 10 available for testing (or 9 or 8 or ... just 11 :-(  ) I've flushed the browser cache, emptied the
    cookies, etc.
    So, 3 of 4 sites work fine on the same machine, same Internet connection, same browser, same SP. I'm thinking it's something with IE, but, what? Seems like IE should be sending the same creds to all the sites, as they're all in the same Internet domain.
    Does IE or Windows cache different creds somewhere? Or is there something in SP? I could see where one person's settings could get hosed somehow, but numerous people around the country with different h/w, different Internet connections, different credentials?
    ARGH! HELP!!! Point me at something to look at, because I'm drawing a blank (and getting permanent dents in my forehead from banging it on my keyboard)...
    Thanks much,
    Steven

    It seems that the difference between the sites that will open and the one that won't is the Default Authentication provider is set to NTLM on those that open, and Negotiate (Kerberos) on the one that won't. The Authentication Provider for the Default zone
    is Claims Based Authentication on all the sites, just site B (which won't open) is set to Negotiate (Kerberos), the others are set to NTLM.
    Short term: can I change the provider to NTLM without destroying the site?
    Long term: point me in the direction for setting up Kerberos correctly on my server/farm, as from what I can tell Kerberos is the recommended path forward. I'll setup a non-production test site and get it figured out.
    Thanks much.

  • Flash 13.0.0.214 does NOT work on some sites, but works fine on all others

    Hi!
    I watch several wildlife nest-cams every day running Windows 8 using Firefox 29.0.1, but yesterday morning, (after I'd already watched the 6 cams I view every day), I started getting a solid, black screen with, "Error loading plugin: Plugin file not found", on TWO of these sites.
    My attempts to resolve the problem were:
    1.  Checked all the other web-cam sites I view daily, and there's only a problem on 2 of them.
    2.  Went to You Tube, Facebook & other similar sites and I can view streaming media.
    3.  Refreshed pages-when that didn't help, I closed & reopened Firefox & still 2 sites with "plugin loading error"
    4.  Completely shut-down my laptop & rebooted.
    5.  Did "System Restore" to earlier in the day when ALL web-cam sites were working.
    6.  Went to Adobe Flash site & verified that I had the most current version...I do, & I saw the animations on Flash site.
    7.  Verified my Flash Plugins in Firefox...AGAIN...they're all activated & up-to-date
    8.  Checked & re-checked ALL the web-cam sites I view every day, (for, at least the 10th time), and the
         same 2 sites are still showing the "Error loading plugin: Plugin file not found" on a black screen.  Even
         though the video isn't seen the "chat" area is functioning, (I don't know if that's important, but I
         thought I should mention it).
    9.  I posted the issue on Firefox's Forum but no one has an answer since Flash works everywhere except
         for 2 sites.
    I've tried everything I can think of to troubleshoot this, but as you can see, I've had no success in solving this "mystery".
    As for the 2 sites I can't view, they are: 
                                        http://www.pixcontroller.com/eagles/    And
                                        http://www.westmorelandconservancy.org/BlueBirdWebcam-1.htm
    I've been watching these sites for MONTHS, so why I can't view them all of a sudden, well, I'm clueless, (I guess you already figured that out...ha ha ha).  I was watching the 2 sites listed above early yesterday morning, then when I looked at one of the other cams I view and came back to these 2 sites, I got the "error message".
    I hope you have a solution for me, as I'm desperate!  I'm WAY behind in my documentation for these 2 sites, so hopefully you'll have an easy answer.  If it's a technical thing, please use LOTS of details, as I'm not very technically inclined.
    Thanks in advance for your help!
    Best Regards,
    DogPal 
    P.S.  I just checked on another site that offers many different wildlife cams, & I CAN view the "Pittsburgh Bald Eagles" if I go through: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/pittsburgh-bald-eagles    I'm sure this means something, but since I don't understand this technical stuff I don't know what that is!  (I told you I'm clueless!) 
    Message was edited by: Donna ....I had additional information

    First, thank you for a very good and detailed description of your problem; so few people provide any information when asking for help.
    Trying to reproduce; the first of your links works fine on Firefox, PaleMoon, and Internet Explorer.
    The second link only shows a blue screen after the ad (on the same three browsers)
    What is your installed Flash Player version?  See Flash Player Help | Flash Player Help
    Can you also try on a different browser such as Internet Explorer?

  • Why does my javascript code work fine in all other browsers, but not Safari

    Previously, I have asked how Safari handles javascript trying to resolve a problem with a slide menu, (http://www.designoutput.com/testslide.html) being directed to validator. I have corrected as many things as possible and still have code work in other browsers. Why will my code work in all other browsers (IE 5.2, Firfox, Netscape, and Opera) and not Safari. It appears that Apple would address some of the problems that people are listing. Possibly, my problem is not with Safari, but my code, if so why does it work in all other browsers. Having more knowledge of how Safari accepts code or handles code differently than other browsers would be helpful. It would be nice if I could debug my code in Safari step by step to know where the problem is at. I'm just frustrated with Safari after working on my problem for over a month. Would be very greatful to anyone that could just being to get my code to appear in Safari (only a blank page in Safari, menu appears in all other browsers)

    you seem to have deleted even more end tags. elements (<a>, <div>, <td>, etc.) need to be closed (</a>, </div>, </td>, etc.) to structure the code properly.
    incorrect:
    document.write(<font ...><b>example)
    correct:
    document.write(<font...><b>example</b></font>)
    check out w3schools for html and javascript help.
    the ilayer tag should only be in your NS (i.e. not NS6) code, but it too needs to be closed.
    i don't use IE, but with these fixes i've gotten your page to display fine in safari, firefox and opera.

  • TS1398 My iphone 4s does not show any of the Wi-Fi networks.  All other devices are working fine on Wi-Fi.  help?

    Worked fine last night, trying to update to IOS6 and Wi-Fi decides not to work anymore, I mean, there are no list of networks to even try to connect to a Wi-Fi.  Tried the reset network, power on power off, the whole nine.  Any other ideas???

    Give this a whirl and see if this helps.
    Forget the network on the device and turn wifi off.
    Turn bluetooth off. (Not sure why, but seemed to help with others)
    Turn on airplane mode and then off again.
    Reconnect to you network and open up a browser to confirm connection.

  • In DCOMCnfg "Run application on this computer" is grayed out for my application on two Windows 7 machines, but it works fine on all other machines

    We have a COM application that is installed on hundreds of machines around the country.  We have instructions included in our install doc of how to set up DCOMCnfg.  On one machine in the field and one machine in our lab (both happen to be Windows 7 machines) the checkbox "Run application on this computer" on the location tab in DCOMCnfg is grayed out and therefore we cannot access our engine remotely.
    I turned off UAC before installing  (we found that the install works much better than way)  and it is actually still off.  I do not get any DCOM errors in the Windows Event logs when I try to access via DCOM, I just get the standard -2147023174 Server Error.  I have added CallFailureLoggingLevel to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\OLE and set it to 1 to enable logging, but still no errors in the event logs.
    I pulled a DCOMTest utility off of the Microsoft site.  Initially it failed, but there were entries in the event logs indicating that it did not have the permissions it needed.  I opened up those permissions and now that test utility works fine.  So, DCOM is functioning between the two computers.
    This application is used with DCOM by hundreds of people, so I know the application should be working properly.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled to verify that everything is registered properly.  I have tried turning off the firewall and the anti-virus.  I am logged in as an administrator
    I am at a loss.  Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    This issue can occur if the current user profile does not have enough permission or related system file is corrupted. Please try the following steps to troubleshoot the issue.
    1. Assure the current user account has administrator permission. If not, please add it to Administrators Group and then test the issue again.
    2. Restart the machine in Safe Mode and logon to the machine with the account: administrator. Then, please check whether the option is grayed out.
    3. If the option is still grayed out, please try this step.
    a. Open C:\Windows\System32 folder and change the ownership of the ComUID.dll file from "trusted installer" to administrators group.
    b. Rename that file as ComUID.dll.org
    c. Copy the attached ComUID.dl_ file from the Windows 7 installation disk to C:\Windows\System32 folder and rename it to ComUID.dll
    Thanks,
    Novak

  • Uploading files containing swedish letter åäö gets ecoding corrupted in firefox for mac. Same features works fine in all other browsers. Is this a bug in firefox for mac?

    When uploading a file containing swedish letter å, ä or ö the file name is gets corupted in the filename. There are som encoding issues just for the mac version, since the file name is uploaded correctly in all other browsers on mac and all browsers in windows.

    What form does this corruption take? According to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=695995 the difference is decomposed vs precomposed Unicode forms, but that should not actually affect any Unicode-complian software.
