New Mac, I open some web pages hang for 30sec before opening?

Safari opens web pages but some sites for example Vodafone start to open but hang for around 20 seconds before fully opening the page. This can't be normal?

There are no maps or plugin content on either of those pages, so I don't feel like I'm getting the whole story from you. However, please try the following.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this test is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account. Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The "Guest User" login created by "Find My Mac" is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.

  • My MBP can't open some web pages

    Hello.
    I have problem with opening some web pages. It doesn't matter on the browser. It happens as in Safari as in Chrome. All browsers are updated. My MPB is updated. Problem is not in router. My gf has the same MBP and she can open the pages which I can't.
    Thanks for any advice.
    Resume:
    Lion 10.7.1, the latest Chrome and Safari, other computers in my network works fine (win/mac), example of page which I can't open: www.adobe.com

    Thanks for the reply.
    I don't think that reporting the pages to apple would do much good as it's not the pages themselves that are the issue, it's something on my system that prevents them from opening up properly. My laptop will open the pages without any issue, however my desktop isn't able to for god knows what reason. I know others on this board have had similar problems.

  • Why Safari 4.0.4 cannot open some web pages?

    Safari 4.0.4 cannot open some web pages, while Firefox 3.5.7 works like a charm.
    I tried to open http://www.bdnews24.com/bangla/ for which Safari gets stuck (never opens the page, except for the first word of the first line), but Firefox shows the page very well. The same problem happens for some other web sites as well (e.g. http://www.prothom-alo.com/).
    (I have Ekushey Bengali AAT fonts, and they are working fine in Firefox and other applications. So this cannot be a font issue.)

    HI,
    From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
    From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset.
    Go here for trouble shooting 3rd party plugins or input managers which might be causing the problem.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1594
    Make sure you are running Safari in 32-bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in the Applications folder, then click: Get Info In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle next to General so it faces down. Select 32 bit mode. Also, (in that same window) make sure Safari is NOT running in Rosetta.
    In case it could be a font issue in the future this may help.
    Try clearing the font cache. In order to do that you need to boot in Safe Mode.
    Shut down your Mac.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, press and hold the Shift key.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple and progress indicator. During startup in Mac OS X v10.4.x or later, you will see "Safe Boot" on the login window, even if normally you log in automatically. Boot time is a minute or two longer than a normal boot.
    After your Mac boots to the Desktop restart the computer normally, without holding any keys during startup.
    What this process does... It moves to the Trash all font caches normally stored in /Library/Caches/
    Restart your Mac and try Safari.

  • Can't open some web pages... DOES ANYONE HAVE A FIX THAT WORKS?

    I'm unable to open certain web pages. The pages will start to open and than the application will just stall. This seems to have coincided with downloading a security update a while back. I've tried downloading firefox and it too will not open these specific pages. I've searched the forum and as of now I can't find a solution. From what I've hear, Apple isn't even acknowledging that there is an issue. I've repaired permissions, deleted Safari plist files, all with no improvement. I know for a fact that it is not my internet connection, as my powerbook can navigate to these sites without any issues, however my powermac seems to have "forgotten" how to open some web pages.
    Any fixes would be enourmously appreciated!

    Thanks for the reply.

  • IP / DNS ?  Can't Open Some web pages

    Hope I'm in the right Forum here. Not 100% sure so apologies if I got it wrong. I am suddenly experiencing errors as below.... I get the same error on several web pages but to keep it simple I will just use www.hotmail.com as the example.
    In Safari I get
    Safari can’t open the page.
    Safari can’t open the page “https://login.live.com/login.srf?id=2&svc=mail&cbid=24325&msppjph=1&tw=0&fs=1&fs a=1&fsat=1296000&_lang=EN&lc=1033”. The error was: “lost network connection” (NSURLErrorDomain:-1005) Please choose Report Bug to Apple from the Safari menu, note the error number, and describe what you did before you saw this message.
    In Firefox I get
    The connection was reset
    The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.
    A few days ago there was some interruption to my broadband service. I had syncronisation with my modem and the exchange (two solid green lights) but no web access on any of my computers. It's possible that the errors above started at the same time but I'm not 100% sure.
    I have researched and read stuff about DNS and resetting IP addresses but don't really understand this.
    Importantly, I have a PC in my house on the same router which can access these sites fine using IE. Also, if I connect my Mac with my neighbours wireless network it all works fine. So - it's something with my ISP right?
    Any ideas on how I can look into this before having to speak to someone who doesn't really know what they're talking about (especially re Mac's) on a £2 per second helpline.
    Thank you

    Chris. I found this post
    http://forums.osxfaq.com/viewtopic.php?t=11628&highlight=firefoxsafari+openhotmail
    Read the very bottom of it regarding MTU. I really don't understand these things but I did have an afternoon of downtime with TalkTalk last week and I have also just changed my service with them from normal broadband to the free broadband. Have you also dont this?
    My logic says that if my two Windows machines work fine then it must be software related on the Mac. Or perhaps something to do wtih how it deals with cookies as the sites I can't access are those which would use cookies.
    Any other thoughts? Maybe we should communicate directly regarding this - I don't know.

  • Every time i try to open a web page I have other sites opening at the same time

    I keep having lots of web pages opening that I did not open and advertising flashing across my screen when i am trying to look at sites, does my computer have a virus or is this a setting and how do you clean a mac ?

    From what you describe you may have inadvertently installed adware. Eradicating it is simple. For an explanation or how this may have occurred, how to avoid it in the future, and for one possible solution read How to install adware.

  • Problem with reader version 11.0.2 when it starts up and I open a file, All hangs for 30sec

    I am using windows 7 on a 64bit laptop.
    When I open a file the sytem hangs for over 30sec saying 'program not responding' the wakens up and works fine till I open another file?

    Thanks for your feedback. I have now tried that but does not appear to change the situation noticeably.
    I have tried raising priority using a program for managing the 2 memory cores and this appears to improve
    things considerably as one might expect but probably only masks the basic problem.
    I am assuming that I have added the reader_sl.exe program file to the start-up sequence, since this is
    not as straightforward with windows 7 as it was with previous versions.

  • Can open some web pages but not all including bookmarked ones

    safari acting strange - not allowing me to open all websites i usually vists just a random few. connection ok as i can send and get emails as usual... explorer behaving in the same way
    advise - as always - appreciated

    Greetings Kate,
    Have you tried emptying the cache? Or second, resetting Safari, which will take out all your cookies and other caches. If this doesnt work, perhaps use OnyX (free from the Apple download site under your Apple menu) to repair permissions, and deep clean caches (users and kernel) and repair permissions.
    Let us know what happens..

  • How to open a web page of given url and open one of its link .

    Hi All,
    I need to write a java program which can open a given URL, fill in the form with given input values and submit it, and then can automatically click on a link (or say open one of the links) on the resulting page.
    It is basically what a testing script does.I want to write it in java.
    I am not able to find keywords i can use to google about this topic.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Elan

    That's what you do in the browser, but that isn't what your program would do. Follow the tutorial:
    [http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/networking/urls/index.html]
    Edit: Although now that I notice you used the word "testing script", you might just want to use HtmlUnit instead of programming that stuff yourself.

  • If I click a link in my email service(Thunderbird) which opens a web page. When I later open Firefox, the previous page appears instead of my home page. How do I stop this?

    Firefox opens for 2 seconds then closes until it opens again ,with the link page, instead of my Home Page

    I use Ubuntu 10.04 and I also get this problem when attempting to open a link through TBird 3.1.10. Firefox 4.0.1 '''opens to my homepage only'''. I have to physically put the link address in the address bar to go to the link.

  • Internet explore can not open some web site!!

    Internet explore cannot open some web site including yahoo game.
    whenever opening it, it says that i need to download java virtual machine
    and it leads me to Microsoft to download MS virtual machine
    but after intalling it, the problem does not disappear.
    Some people suggest that using opera, but it is not working, either!!
    What is the problem? Does anyone know the solution?
    Please reply me!!

    Hi,
    Internet explore cannot open some web site including yahoo game. whenever opening it, it says >that i need to download java virtual machine and it leads me to Microsoft to download MS virtual
    machine but after intalling it, the problem does not disappear.Explorer not opening some web sites indicated that you are not able to open those sites which
    do have applets in homepage,probabily you are able to download the applet but that cannot be
    executed due to lack of environment(JVM).Although the Explored does have the inbuilt JVM but
    I believe in the latest versions they are not providing.
    i hope yours is not that case.The other alternative can be explorer getting corrupt or change
    in the setting(which I believe you must not have changed)
    See if the application comes on different machines explorer.
