Links that work on other computers open blank pages on mine; is there a setting I should change?

I'm a novice user & hope this is a simple fix! I also tried Safari, and the same links opened as black rather than white pages. I installed Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac after Christmas; could that be the culprit?

Install Adobe Flash Player.

  • How do I solve "Error Code: 403.14".trying to open a link on a website that works on other computers and has worked on my computer 'til now.?

    The website is www.Jardencs.com/careers. When I click on "Career Opportunities" I get the following error message:
    Request Error
    Forbidden directory
    Listing denied
    Close the browser and try to log on again.
    Error Code: 403.14.
    The link has worked on my computer up 'til now and works now on my cell phone. I recently installed Torch, but uninstalled it today when I started having this problem.

    Did you try to log in to that website?
    If it worked before then try to clear the cache and the cookies from this website.

  • Using Mountain Lion and getting "Error 102 (net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED)" from some domain names that work on other computers on my network.

    I can not load some websites/domain names through Firefox,Chrome & Safari. It seems like a DNS caching issue to me. I have tried flusing DNS cache and changing to to public nameservers with varying success. The domains will load on other versions of OSX on my network, so Iappears to be an OS version issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Chrome Error
    Error 102 (net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED): The server refused the connection.
    Firefox Error
    Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at domainname.com
    Safari Error
    Safari can't open the page "http://domainname.com" because Safari can't connect to server "domainname.com".

  • Why can't other computers open my photos from Iphoto or down load them? they don't show up as an icon.

    Why can't other computers open and/or download my photos when I email themfrom IPhoto? Have also tried making it a separate file on my desk; to no avail.
    It shows as an icon and jpeg when it goes out from my computer but they can't download it.
    They might see the photo imbedded in the emil but it doesn't appear as a downloadable icon.
    Thank you for your help.

    I think I can help. I use Mac but my secretary uses PC.
    Make a file on your desktop and name it "test"
    Go to iPhoto and click on a photo to send to this folder
    Go to file and choose "export"
    Pop up window - Kind: jpeg
    quality: maximum
    size: full
    click on export and choose the "test" folder you created on the desktop.
    You can now send any jpeg that you put in this folder from an email account by "attaching file" from within the email. If you have more than one jpeg, right click on the folder and choose "compress file"

  • Pdf opens blank page in safari

    PDF opens as a blank page in safari.  Can any one help?

    Hello S Butler,
    Welcome to Discussions!
    See if any of this helps you below.
    Also did you use the combo up-date for 10.4.5? Because this version
    corrects things in Safari that the stand alone does not.
    Did you repair premissions before and after the up-date?
    Did you turn off your firewall?
    Safari: PDFs now open directly in Safari instead of in Preview
    When using the latest version of Safari with Mac OS X 10.4 "Tiger," PDF links that you click will now open directly in the Safari window for your viewing convenience. Before Tiger, PDFs would open in Preview.
    If you still prefer Preview, simply Control-click the PDF link (or right click on a two-button mouse) and choose Download Linked File from the shortcut menu. Once the file is on your desktop, double-click it to open in Preview.
    Notes:
    In addition to Control-clicking the link and selecting Download Linked File as described above, you also have the choice of using Option-click on the link to shortcut the process even further.
    If you do open a PDF in a Safari window, you can Control-click on the PDF itself and choose Open with Preview.
    Due to certain server configurations, some PDFs will still download to your desktop instead of opening in a Safari window.
    If you use a third-party PDF plug-in for Safari, it will block Safari's built-in PDF support.
    Please let us know if anything works for you.

  • Safari Opens Blank Pages

    Lately Safari has been opening blank pages behind my current page whenever I click links on the current page. The link opens in the current page or new tab, but the full screen blank page is still open. This is driving me crazy. Any thoughts?

    I was suggested to uninstall Glims. Here is the link I was given:

  • Safari cannot open the page ~ The error was: "There was a problem communicating with the web proxy server (HTTP)

    Help!  I was cruzing along just fine and went out tonight only to receive the message above:
    Cannot open Page
    Safari cannot open the page
    The error was: "There was a problem communicating with the web proxy server (HTTP)."
    I have had all the Apple iPhone phone.  Have never encountered anything like this. 
    All systems are GO as soon as I log on to wifi. 
    Can anyone help, please. 

    I am also fixed.  I also loaded Onavo, but that was the other day ... this is what I did with the help of online chat with AT&T ...
    I went to:
    Settings
    Wifi
    I selected the network I was working on by hitting the blue arrow located on right side
    At the detail page of that network I scolled down to the bottom to find HTTP Proxy boxes
    I was on Off and changed it to Auto and it worked! 
    I was soo jazzed!!
    Instructions said if it was already on AUTO, to change it to Manual and make your Port = 80 but I didn't have to do that!
    YIPPIE!!  I'm a new man!!
    Go to settings -----> WI-FI  -----> select the network you're using  ------> hit the blue arrow located on the right-side of the network name (ie: show details of that network), this takes you to another page.  
    --------> at the bottom of the page you'll see "HTTP Proxy" boxes (located below the "renew lease" button) ---------------> change the proxy to AUTO.   Note: if you're already at AUTO, change it to "Manual" and make your Port = 80.

  • Why can't I minimize more than 2 notepads in FF? I used to be able to minimize as many notepads as I wanted. FF must have done an update & now I can't do that anymore. Is there a setting I can change that will enable me to do that?

    # Question
    Why can't I minimize more than 2 notepads in FF? I used to be able to minimize as many notepads as I wanted. When I do research on a topic I keep many notepads open until I am finished. FF must have done an update & now I can't do that anymore. Is there a setting I can change that will enable me to do that again?
    Also at that time, the length of sentence I am typing changed.
    It doesn't seem to have any limit to how far it can extend to the right.
    Please help. I am not very techy & don't understand Computerese.
    Please explain in everyday English.
    Thanks in advance,
    posy

    Hi Prabhuti,
    Thank you so much for all your suggestions & helpful links to get help. I am not very computer literate. I have taken many classes over the years I've had a computer but I am still only a beginner.
    I want to tell you that I found a solution to my problem. I finally realized that maybe FF was not the problem but Wind. 7 on my new comp. I went on the 7 Forums & found another person who had the same problem & the answer was simple all I had to do was to right click on the Notepad icon & it would bring up a new Notepad & I could open & minimize as many as I want. I had moved the Notepad icon to my taskbar from the Start menu when I got my new computer.
    I have one more question for you. The notepad 2 program was mentioned there along with several others. I think it was about that prog. that someone said that it could open many notepads & when you closed the comp. the notepads would not disappear. Do you know if it was that program? Also is it possible to use that program the same way as I used the original Notepad? There are so many technical options on that program that I didn't understand. All I want to do is open the Notepad & copy & paste my notes in it & minimize them. Not losing them if I shut down the comp. would be real benefit to me. I believe that is the same prog. you recommended to me. Since you seem to understand tech things I thought maybe you could tell me if that is possible?
    Thank you so much for all your help.
