One website won't open, help!

When I try to go to the Verizon homepage, it either will not load at all, or the sign-in module portion won't load. The error message is the sad piece of paper and it says: Google Chrome could not load the webpage because signin.verizon.com took too long to respond. The website may be down, or you may be experiencing issues with your Internet connection.
This is the only site that has issues. It was working fine two weeks ago. My internet (Time Warner) and router (Linksys) walked through various steps with me and say it is not them. When my computer is plugged in directly to internet, the page loads. When my computer is on my work wi-fi, it loads. It only doesn't load in my wi-fi at home. Was told it may be Firewall issues with my router (Linksys) but they did troubleshooting with me and said it must be my computer / the website. Please help! I've gone through the following steps based on other forum responses to similar questions and nothing has worked so far.
1. Restarting computer
2. Clearing cache, etc...
3. Removing Verizon from keychain
4. No Proxies are selected in "Network", Bypass proxy settings for these Hosts & Domains is: *.local, 169.254/16
5. Added 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4 to DNS Servers in "Network"
6. Created "Test" under "Location" in "Network"
7. Parental controls are not on
8. Used Terminal command: cat /etc/hosts
Response matched what was recommended that it should be:
# Host Database
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting. Do not change this entry.
127.0.0.1 localhost
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
::1 localhost
fe80::1%lo0 localhost

As a test try using another browser like Safari or Firefox.

Embedded videos in many websites won't open.

I have found that the embedded videos on many but not all websites won't open now when I'm browsing in Firefox. I am running 27.0.1. I have Adobe Flash Player installed so that's not an issue. As some examples of non-openers: Embedded videos in some of the news articles on Yahoo!'s home page; videos on the davidlynchfoundation.org site. I tried disabling the "Adblock Edge" add-on, but it didn't change anything. In many cases, their is a big empty space in the text where the video should be, i.e. there isn't any indication that there's a video there. In other cases, I click on the visible start icon, but the screen of the vid just goes to black.
When I switched to Safari, all of these embedded videos opened without a hitch. I'd rather continue with Firefox, but will have to switch to Safari if we can come up with a "fix" for this problem.
I have a MacBook running Snow Leopard. This is a new problem which I haven't experienced with Firefox previously.
BTW: I have only minimal tech skills.
Thanks for any advice/help you can provide.

Hi Yogidave,
It sounds like the videos are not loading properly. If there are not video controls, but there is a space for the video, this means that the item is loading, but the player is not loading.
In understanding what you tried:
I tried disabling the "Adblock Edge" add-on - it looks like this is no longer in the list of add ons that you have in the troubleshooting information, when you took this out, do the videos still leave space in the page where the video should be?
The examples you used: Yahoo homepage and the davidlynchfoundation: I know the latter uses an embedded youtube video with has its own video player that uses flash, as well at Yahoo. (I am not sure if all the videos are flash in Yahoo)
Since this is the case, can you please check your extensions to see if you have Flash installed or if you have it disabled? If so, please turn it on and visit the sites that are giving you issues to see if this resolves the problem.
This article has pretty simple instructions how to install the player if it is not there[[Install the Flash plugin to view videos, animations and games]]
The only other test I can suggest is to see if another type of embedded video does the same thing. For example, if you have netflix or hulu, see if those video players do the same thing.
I hope this helps. (also I tested those pages in beta and it loads just fine, you are not short of watching videos again in firefox)

I tried to open Firefox this morning and got a message saying that the installation was malformed (huh?!?!?!?). It opens but refuses to go to any website, it won't open any of my bookmarks, and it won't allow me to refresh or do ANYTHING AT ALL.

It works OK for me on Safari 7.1.2 (Mavericks) - are you using an older version? Try rebooting Safari to clear the cache (or command-option-e).

Itunes won't open - help!

I have been using itunes for 3 months without any problem and for the past week it will not work. The problem I am getting is when I double click the itunes shortcut, sometimes an egg timer is displayed for 10 secs, then nothing. On other times, I manage to get the itunes licensing agreement on screen. I have tried everything to get it working - I've clicked on save, then agree. I've clicked on save, then disagree but itunes still won't open. I have read through the support section on the itunes website and carried out the following:
1. uninstalled & reinstalled itunes
2. uninstalled & reinstalled quicktime
3. run windows clean up to uninstall itunes & quicktime
4. rebooted PC so many times and wasted so many hours!
I am now at a complete loss at what to do next. I still have the same problem - itunes icon is on desktop but nothing happens when I double click. Can someone please please help?
Thanks
Jackie

hi Jackie!
When I open up Task Manager, itunes application is running and I can't kill the process without rebooting my PC.
usually i associate that "running itunes.exe process That Will Not Die" symptom with nasty version of the NIS 2005 itunes launch suppressions ... but you've got McAfee ...
let's quickly check up on a possibility that can also result in you seeing a running itunes.exe (even though itunes silently fails to launch):

My Safari was updated to 5.1.9 and now it won't open - help!

Safari updated itself a few days ago and was working fine up until this morning. Now I click on it, it bobs up and down once or twice, but a browser window won't open. Any suggestions for what I can do to fix it??

Ideally - locate a crash report from Console application... look in Diagnostic & Usage Information - User Diagnostic Reports in the log list on the left & see if there's one for Safari dated today. If so, copy it & paste the contents here.

My iTunes won't open help please! what should I do?

My iTunes won't open, when I try to open it, it says:
"The file 'i Tunes Library.itl' cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of itunes."
What can I do about this? please help me.

Ps.. My quicktime opens and I can search for music and play it but itunes still wont' open
thank you kindly.
another couple of preliminary questions aimed at narrowing in on possible culprits.
(1) do you have Norton Internet Security 2005 installed on the PC?
(2) reboot the PC. bring up your Task Manager, and click on the "Processes" tab. now try to launch itunes again.
does an "itunes.exe" process appear in the Processes tab? if so, does it persist in there or does it disappear after a few seconds?

One FileVault won't open, programs on other account won't start

My fiancee has had problems on her 2006-era MacBook Pro 15". She has FileVault on her primary account, and one other administrator account she doesn't use. Recently, the computer froze while running, and upon reboot it couldn't load up the primary account (with FileVault). It said something about a read/write error.
This isn't the first time this has happened - we had to use DiskWarrior to fix that same FileVault a couple months back - so I knew the drill enough to load up the other admin account to try to repair things. But this time, some programs (including DiskWarrior and Safari) wouldn't run properly from that other account: they'd show a bouncing icon in the dock for a couple minutes and then shut down with no error message.
I tried running Disk Utility to scan the hard drive, but it freezes the whole computer (meaning I can't even force-quit the program) every time I try.
I'm thinking the hard drive is in pretty bad shape and probably needs to be replaced. Fair enough. But is there any way to salvage some documents from the FileVault-protected account? I have the password and everything for it, but it won't open, and I can't get DiskWarrior or Disk Utility to repair it from the other admin account.

I'm not sure there's a way to recover those files unless you can log into the account. Perhaps the whole drive can be cloned onto an external HDD (e.g. with Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper) and then the account can be accessed.
FYI, I strongly recommend against using FileFault (intentional misspelling). Since all of the data are stored in a single, large disk image, any file directory issue locks the whole thing up, as you have found.
Once you get things back to normal (one way or another), instead of FileVault, I'd recommend creating a secure disk image (using Disk Utility) and storing sensitive data there. Instructions for that are in this linked kbase article. It's smaller, therefore less likely (statistically) to be affected by directory damage, and personally I don't see the need to encrypt the entire home folder (why encrypt iTunes music, for example).

One application won't open for one user

We are doing a rollout of Macbook Pros to a group of people. We have used migration assistant for 20 computers. One application will not open for one user on each of the computers. The applicaiton will open for users that are added, but not the admin user that the application was originally installed. We have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the application with the same results. The one user can not log in. The permissions look right for all files.

How about clarifying some things for me? Does each machine have a different admin user? What user installed the application that won't open (you say there is only one?) How many users on each machine - one or many? How many admin users are there? How many users are Standard or Managed users? What user "can not log in?" Is this on one machine or all machines? Which is the application that won't open, where is it installed, what are the permissions for the application, what are the permissions for the folder in which it's installed?
Are these computers on a network or operating standalone or does each person in the group have their own separate machine?
From where did you migrate for these 20 computers and why did you use Migration Assistant? MA is not the correct tool for doing a multi-system configuration. This is usually done using a net-based installation from a machine running OS X Server or from an XServe or by creating a standard system DVD and installing via ASR.
