No browsers can load certain websites like Hotmail etc

Certain websites like Hotmail, Microsoft and secure websites starting with https seem to load indefinitely while browser is blank using Firefox, Internet Explorer and Chrome. I have been having these problems since Monday 22nd August only on my laptop.
I have tried everything suggested in the support and troubleshooting pages and none of them work.
I have scanned for viruses and spyware using 4 different antispyware programs in vain.
I dont think not using the latest version of Firefox would make a difference.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Web browsers cannot load certain websites.

    There are certain websites I am never able to access from my computer.  I've tried to access these sites using Safari (5.1), Firefox, and Google Chrome, and I always get a message stating (at least in Safari) "Safari can't open the page xxxxx.com because the server where this page is located isn't responding."  My girlfriend runs off of the same Airport as I do, and I can access these sites from her computer.  Any idea what's wrong with my computer, since it doesn't appear to be either a browser or ISP issue?
    Thanks!
    Nick

  • I'm unable to load certain websites across all browsers on a MacBook Pro

    Suddenly I'm unable to load certain websites (sundancechannel.fr, sundancechannel.tw, etc.) across all browsers—Safari, Firefox, Chrome—on my new MacBook Pro. Other computers on the same wifi can access those same sites fine.
    I either get a won't connect to server message or a blank page.
    Any idea what's going on?
    I've thus far tried restarting the connection, clearing my cache, restarting the computer, deleting my history, and even getting in touch with the site owners.

    Cambrey,
    that HTML content shows that there’s no content at that Web site — it will only show the heading “301 Moved Permanently” and the single line “nginx/1.2.6”. I suspect that they might have wanted to include a redirection directive in that document, but for some reason, they didn’t. Your browsers are behaving as they ought to do with this Web site.
    Have you considered trying www.sundancechannel.fr in your browsers instead of sundancechannel.fr?

  • Firefox cannot load all websites in e10s window. But Firefox can load all websites in e10s window.

    Firefox cannot load all websites in e10s window. But Firefox can load all websites in e10s window.
    It shows mostly, Tab crashed Well, this is embarrassing.
    Well, this is embarrassing. We tried to display this Web page, but it's not responding.
    Tell Mozilla about this crash so they can fix it.
    Or sometimes for the last tab it shows :
    Websites show a spinning wheel and never finish loading
    Of course other browsers works 'perfectly' onto loading sites.
    What can I do. Is this an e10s bug, that I could help to qualify and how?
    Also looking for a workaroud. I want to restore my tabs onto a non-e10s window, but really don't figure how to do that. Means, after relaunching FF-nightly, restore my windows and tabs.
    He still give me this message :
    Nightly is having trouble recovering your windows and tabs. blah blah...
    I want to disable e10s as of for now, until he will maybe work again.

    If you would like to disable e10s please follow these steps:

    Don't worry e10s is getting better every day. It's just a matter of time and hard work.

  • Problem loading certain websites

    For the past year or so, my iMac has (running Mac OS X 10.5.8) has been giving me trouble when it comes to loading certain websites. The reason why I think it's my computer as opposed to my browser or my internet connection is because these websites will load on other computers connected to the wireless network in my home, and because the problem persists with any browser I attempt to use - I've tried Google Chrome, Firefox and Safari and none of them load these websites. (Also, they load fine when I'm on the internet via my iPod touch.)
    The websites in question include about.com, ehow.com, and any website with a .me extension. There are others, but those are the three that come to mind at the moment. When I try to go on about.com for example, the page simply does not load. There's not even an attempt to load the page. It's very frustrating because I see no reason why these websites shouldn't work.
    I have tried clearing the caches, history and preferences for all browsers, as well as logging in as a different user on my computer and seeing if these websites worked - they didn't work, even as a different user. I was told it could be a problem with the .plist files, so I dragged all of them into the trash and tried loading these webpages, but it still didn't work. Does anyone know what else it could be? Also, I apologize if my description of the problem was unclear.

    Some other things you can try:
    1. Run Software Update (in the Apple Menu) and make sure you have all available Apple updates for OS X.
    2. Go to Adobe.com and make sure you have the latest versions of Shockwave and Flash for your computer installed.
    3. Go to System Preferences > Parental Controls and see if any restrictions have been established.
    4. Go to System Preferences > Accounts and set up a new user account. Try using your browsers from this account. If they work, there is a problem with your "old" account. Next steps will depend on how much time and effort you're willing to devote to troubleshooting.
    5. Power cycle your router and computer.
    6. Go to System Preferences > Network. Highlight your router (assuming you're using a wireless connection) and select the "TCP/IP" panel. Click on the "Renew DHCP Lease" button.

  • Whenever I open Firefox 4.0 Beta 6, and try to log onto websites like Hotmail, Facebook RuneScape etc. it won't let me... Help?

    Whenever I open Firefox 4.0 Beta 6, and try to long onto websites like Hotmail, Facebook RuneScape etc. it won't let me... I'm finding it frusrtrating and annoying since I cannot use Firefox 4.0 Beta 6. It works on other accounts excluding mine - What is this crap rigged or something? I have to resort to crappy Google Chrome and Safari since it messed up on both of my computers... Here's what it says when I double-click the short-cut: " Could not initialize the application's security component. The most likely cause is problems with files in your application's profile directory. Please check that this directory has no read/write restrictions and your hard disk is not full or close to full. It is recommended that you exit the application and fix the problem. If you continue to use this session, you might see incorrect application behaviour when accessing security features. " Although, it says the way to help - Can you like, dumb it down for me?
    ALSO, here's what it says when I go onto http://runescape.com - It says: An error occurred during a connection to www.runescape.com:443.
    Can't connect securely because the SSL protocol has been disabled.
    (Error code: ssl_error_ssl_disabled)

    See [[Secure Connection Failed]]
    Create a new profile exclusively for the 4.0 beta version and create a desktop shortcut with -P "profile" appended to the target to launch that profile.

    Thanks for that information!
    I'm sure I will be calling AppleCare, but the problem is, they charge for the phone calls don't they? Because I don't have money to be spending to be on the phone with a support service.
    In other things, it seemed like the only time my MacBook was working was when I had Snow Leopard without the 10.6.8 update download that was supposed to be done to prepare for OS X Lion.
    When I look at the information of my HD it says that I have 10.6.8 but that was the install that it claimed to have failed and caused me to restart resulting in all of the repeated problems.
    Also, because my computer is currently down, and I've lost all files how would that effect the use of my iPhone? Because if it doesn't get fixed by the time OS 5 is released, how would I be able to upgrade?!

  • Firefox cannot load certain websites and I've tried all suggested options to fix the problem.

    I cannot load certain websites (my bank, some public/civic offices, etc.) on Firefox or Internet Explorer (I usually use Firefox) and have tried all the suggested options in Firefox Help to remedy this problem: clearing cache and cookies, making sure no proxy is selected, allowing cookies). How do I fix this? I use a broadband internet connection that is shared.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode 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).
    <b> To Enable SafeMode </b>
    *You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    *''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
    Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: "Firefox > Quit Firefox"; Linux: "Firefox/File > Quit")

  • My computer will not load certain websites

    Hi,
    Both Safari and Firefox will not load certain websites consistantly (Twitter is one of them). I check on my wife's computer and they can load on her computer no problem. It shows the "Problem Loading Page" message. I've cleared history, cache, everything that I can think of. Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Richard

  • Need to click in address bar to load certain websites

    Firefox never finishes loading certain websites. However, clicking on the site address in the address bar then immediately loads them. This also happens with all add-ons disabled. What gives?

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

    safari has stopped loading certain websites, all software is up to date. Have tried resetting safari with no result. Any ideas?

    If you follow the instructions at http://www.opendns.com/start , does the problem go away? If so, your ISP is having DNS troubles.
    (Hopefully you can get to Open DNS.)

  • I updated to the latest version of Safari now I cannot log into certain websites like my online banking.  How do I revert back to an older version?

    I updated to the latest version of Safari now I cannot log into certain websites like my online banking.  Another reason I loved using this computer was autofill, now that does not work the same either, I have to respond twice to get my info to fill in.  I fill out many forms in a day and this change has been so bad that I have downloaded Mozilla Firefox to use instead.  I hope apple fixes these issues but until then how do I revert back to an older version of Safari?

    Quit Safari.
    Open Keychain Access   /Applications/Utilities
    Select Passwords on the left. Delete any keychains for sites you have problems logging into.
    Relaunch Safari. Go to Safari / Preferences - Autofill. Make sure all three boxes are selected.
    Now navigate to a site, login with your user name and password. You should be prompted to save that data to a new keychain. Click Yes.
    If you still have problems, go to ~/Library/Cookies. Move the Cookies.plist file to the Trash.
    ~ (Tilde) represents your Home folder.
    Try logging into a site again.

  • Firefox can't load certain websites that Chromium can
