Prob with web pages loading w. Chrome and Firefox

I am having problems with Google Chrome and Mozilla FireFox completely loading some internet pages. I have to hit the refresh button over and over and sometimes that does not even work. I have cleared all of the browswer history and that was not effective. I have a Mac Book Pro purchased around April of 2010. I thought it may be an internet prob in my house but I have no issues with streaming video or downloading anything. Any help would be appreciated. I have not tested it on a hard wire conneection, only wireless.
Thanks, Jeff

Well it is all kinds that should work, like Facebook, ESPN, JC Penny, MMA Junkie, I just read a post on MAC Forums or something and I went it to the wireless advanced settings and disabled the ipv6 under the tcp/ip tab and i am going to try that. It seems to be working so far. have you heard of this setting and what it is for?

1. From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
2. Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data...
and confirm. Test.
3. If the above steps don't resolve the problem, please describe it in more detail.

Uninstall IE and set another web browser such as Chrome and FireFox as default using Group Policy

Hi there,
Please can anyone instruct me on how to uninstall IE and set another web browser such as Chrome and FireFox as default using Group Policy. Your help would be much appreciated.
Kind regards,
RocknRollTim
P.S. I was redirected by a forum user off the Microsoft Community forum.

IE can't be uninstalled. It's part of the operating system and cannot be removed. You can hide the icon but the engine is still on the machine and still must be updated.
This is a topic best suited for a Group policy forum.
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en
US/home?forum=winserverGP
Step one is to install the Chrome ADMX templates - see the link below for more detais:

Of the two browsers, my personal preference is Chrome over Firefox. Firefox's add in model is too prone to developer insecurity.

Thanks Justin Gu for marking this as the proposed answer.

Web pages load slowly using Safari, Firefox, and Chrome.

Web pages are loading slowly now on my mid-2008 iMac 2.66 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo.
Doesn't seem to matter if I use Safari v5.1.10, Firefox v29.0.1, or Chrome v34.0.1847.131.
Problem started about a week ago mostly with YouTube but now I have issues with almost all web pages loading slowly, including this one.

Try resetting both your Intenet MODEM/Router by unplugging them, waiting 15 to 20 seconds then plugging them back in.

I'm using Firefox 3.6.23 on my windows 2000 and lately i've been having issues with web pages loading and need help figuring out why.

Some of the issues : '''1'''. Page loads blank showing web address in tab. Try reloading usually with no results.(problem have the most!) '''2'''. Message appears "problem loading page, server not found" (diff times & diff websites). '''3.''' Pg with msg "oops link broke, DNS error, server not found" then lists suggested links to sites for fix though all links connect to site IGEARED.COM. (new issue) I don't know what to do please help me identify and fix my issue(s) in english, kind of a newbie : ). thx

Try this.
Type in the address bar about:config.
Accept the warning.
In the page that appears, in the Filter box, type network.http.max-connections. Change the value to 32 (which is probably set to 256 in your case).
Close that page. Restart the browser.

Guest Portal web page load is slow and timesout on occasions

Hi All,
I'm hitting a rather unusual issue with our Guest WLAN users. Firstly let me describe the topology:-
2 x 5508 WLC controllers one Foreign and one Anchor. Mobility tunnel between the two WLC's as the Guest WLAN is on the WLC sitting in the DMZ.
30+ 2702i AP's running in FlexConnect mode for Dot1X WLAN and Central Switching for Guest WLAN.
Cisco ISE 1.3 acting as Radius server and providing Authentication and Authorisation policies.
Dot1x Authentication and Authorisation works fine with Dynamic VLAN assignment based on AD memberships.
The issue is with the Guest WLAN is that from a security perspective we weren't allowed to use the Central Web Authentication using L2 MAC filtering with the L3 Security of None as described in Cisco Document: 115732.
So the Guest WLAN has been set up with no L2 security and the L3 Security of Web Policy with Web Authentication to External Server i.e. Cisco ISE and RADIUS override on the Advanced tab of the Guest WLAN.
So a client connects to the Guest WLAN SSID > receives the DHCP IP address hosted by the Anchor WLC and then one opens a browser types in the URL and the Security message is presented > Continue to this website (not recommended) selected and the process of receiving the Web Redirect Sign On Web page begins and hangs around forever.
Depending on the Client i.e. Apple IPAD the sign on page loads correctly although can be slow to start with but a successful login is completed, but with windows clients and MAC Air books there is an issue with the browser either timing out the page and a retry is necessary or we can't move beyond the following page - https://x.x.x.x:8443/portal /PortalSetup.action?portal=194a5780-5e4e-11e4-b905-005056bf2f0a?switch_url=https://1.1.1.1/login.html&client mac=00:23:4e:86:98:3c&wlan=GUEST&redirect=www.cisco.com/
Any suggestions would be really appreciated with this as it's creating a lot of frustration.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Mark

Hi Mark,
Yes Guest Cert will need to be external. Because Guest Users if they have a non-corporate laptop for example will not have your Internal Company Certs installed in their browser (that you loaded onto ISE), so they cannot trust your internal Cert.
If your open Firefox or IE under Options/Security View Certificates you will see a list, if its a Guest you will see well known public Certs like Geotrust, Verisign etc.
For my setup I brought a GeoTrust cert and loaded this into ISE, this way Guests will always Trust the Geostrust ISE cert like https://guest.com for example and the login will appear and be trusted.

Trouble with web pages loading

The last three days, I have had little success loading web pages. The green status bar will start to scroll to the right in the space containing the web address but will not fully load the page. Restarting the phone does not help.
Any suggestions??

Strange. My original Bookmark link was lower case. The link was not working this AM from either my Bookmark, or to the site as listed in a Google search. I tried the link in Don's reply, and that worked. I went back to check the Bookmark, and it was totally correct. I deleted the Bookmark, and added a new Bookmark from the page that opened from Don's link. This new link seems to be working. Problem solved (I guess), although the cause remains a mystery.
Thanks, Don.

WRT350n Firmware Update 1.03.7 - Web page load really slow after update

Well I updated my WRT350N with the new firmware, but now web pages load very slowly, and streaming video is even slower. Before the update it was blazing fast. I run a mixed network of wireless N and G. Both Wireless N connections connect at 200 or higher Mbps now, which is a great improvement.
Anybody got any ideas why web pages and steaming video run so slow now.
Also downloading files never goes above 30 kb/sec now.
I use comcast cable and downloads were so fast before.
Thanks in advance.

check the download speed and the streaming video when the computer is directly connected to the modem

Chrome and Firefox plug-ins not installed with latest version of Reader

I'm running OS X 10.7.2 and just installed the latest version of Acrobat Reader and would like to use the plug-ins it is supposed to come with to view PDFs in Chrome and Firefox. However, the version of Reader that I downloaded (10.1.1) doesn't seem to include the plug-ins. A few additional pieces of information:
1) Acrobat Reader > Contents > Plug-ins contains NO files.
2) In Reader, the Preferences > Internet > "Display PDF in browser" box is checked.
3) In Chrome, Acrobat Reader is not listed on chrome://plugins
4) In Firefox, Acrobat Reader is not include in the list of Plug-Ins
I already rebooted my computer, and also deleted and re-installed Adobe Reader. Now at a loss for what to do next. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!!
Best,
Chelsea

HT1338 hi, my firefox and safari are both having difficulty loading certain parts of web pages. previous to this my firefox would freeze and state that a script was not responding. i would stop the script and reload the page and everything would be fine.

hi, my firefox and safari are both having difficulty loading certain parts of web pages. previous to this my firefox would freeze and state that a script was not responding. i would stop the script and reload the page and everything would be fine. now though the pages just load very very slowly or load leaving out certain pictures and video content. i've tried clearing my cache's and cookies, resetting my browser etc, but it seems like its a system issue as both safari and firefox are having issues. i've run Avast to screen for malware and it came up empty. any suggestions?

10.4.8's been a pain for Networking... not sure of all the reasons though, or whether all the complaints might not be MS working around Bugs/Non-compliance, but at this point I think you should get Applejack...

After installing, boot holding down CMD+s, then when the prompt shows, type in...

Then let it do all 5 of it's things.
Fixes a lot of problems, and besides, if your Mac ever gets to the point it won't Boot... this is a life saver!
After you run that... let's see where we are.

After upgrading to 8.0 the add-on compatability tool runs and the Getting Started web page loads every time the browser starts.

After upgrading to 8.0 from 7.0.1 every time I start FF I get the add-on compatibility tool to run and the Getting Started web page loads along with my homepage in separate tabs as well. So far I have tried running the installer again, disabling all add-0ns and custom settings and restarting and turning off automatic updates. Nothing worked there. I got the same behavior each time. I don't know what else to try other than a full uninstall and reinstall. Something I'd like to avoid if it's possible because of the time involved. This is the second time I have posted regarding this issue. The first time I didn't get a response. A solution or a possible workaround would be greatly appreciated if anyone knows of any. As a staff member and a global forum moderator for an anti-virus company I understand how hectic things can be at times but some feedback, good or bad, on this issue would be very welcomed! Regards, Ritchie...

Hi michaell, thanks for the reply. I tried everything in the Preferences are not saved link you provided and nothing worked there. If creating a new profile will delete all my add-ons and custom settings I might as well just do a complete uninstall and reinstall. That actually would be easier. That article told me how to save my bookmarks though so I don't have to loose those which is nice. I don't know if this makes any difference but there is a discrepancy between the preference file in the article which is: prefs.js and what's showing on my PC which is: prefs with no .js suffix. I tried to rename the file to prefs.js and restarted. No luck there either. It just created another prefs file. I guess we've pretty much exhausted all the avenues to try! I'm just going to go ahead and do a reinstall when I get the time. Thanks so much for your help michaell. I do appreciate the effort. Regards, Ritchie...

I was wondring if there is any top free app for cleaning up the computer and make it run faster while booting, on startup and while surfing web. I am using a macbookpro with IOS10.8.5, under chrome,safari,firefox net environment. thanks on yourhelp

I was wondering if there is any top free app for cleaning up the computer from malware, phinishing apps, adware, and othere malicious softwares and make it run faster while booting, on startup and while surfing web. I am using a Macbook pro with IOS10.8.5, under chrome,safari,firefox net environment. thanks on your help

I was wondering if there is any top free app for cleaning up ...
There is no such thing, since the problems you are describing can have various causes. Seeking anything claiming to "clean" your Mac is asking for trouble, since all of those products are scams, whether they are "free" or not.
If you are having trouble with your Mac, describe what it is. Be as specific as possible. For general recommendations read below.
There will always be threats to your information security associated with using any Internet - connected communications tool:
You can mitigate those threats by following commonsense practices
Delegating that responsibility to software is an ineffective defense
Assuming that any product will protect you from those threats is a hazardous attitude that is likely to result in neglecting point #1 above.
OS X already includes everything it needs to protect itself from viruses and malware. Keep it that way with software updates from Apple.
A much better question is "how should I protect my Mac":
Never install any product that claims to "clean up", "speed up", "optimize", "boost" or "accelerate" your Mac; to "wash" it, "tune" it, or to make it "shiny". Those claims are absurd.Such products are very aggressively marketed. They are all scams.
Never install pirated or "cracked" software, software obtained from dubious websites, or other questionable sources.
Illegally obtained software is almost certain to contain malware.
"Questionable sources" include but are not limited to spontaneously appearing web pages or popups, download hosting sites such as C net dot com, Softonic dot com, Soft pedia dot com, Download dot com, Mac Update dot com, or any other site whose revenue is primarily derived from junk product advertisements.
If you need to install software that isn't available from the Mac App Store, obtain it only from legitimate sources authorized by the software's developer.
Don’t supply your password in response to a popup window requesting it, unless you know what it is and the reason your credentials are required.
Don’t open email attachments from email addresses that you do not recognize, or click links contained in an email:
Most of these are scams that direct you to fraudulent sites that attempt to convince you to disclose personal information.
Such "phishing" attempts are the 21st century equivalent of a social exploit that has existed since the dawn of civilization. Don’t fall for it.
Apple will never ask you to reveal personal information in an email. If you receive an unexpected email from Apple saying your account will be closed unless you take immediate action, just ignore it. If your iCloud, iTunes, or App Store account becomes disabled for valid reasons, you will know when you try to buy something or log in to this support site, and are unable to.
Don’t install browser extensions unless you understand their purpose:Go to the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. If you see any extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone.
Don’t install Java unless you are certain that you need it:
Java, a non-Apple product, is a potential vector for malware. If you are required to use Java, be mindful of that possibility.
Java can be disabled in System Preferences.
Despite its name JavaScript is unrelated to Java. No malware can infect your Mac through JavaScript. It’s OK to leave it enabled.
The same precaution applies to Adobe Flash Player. Newly discovered Flash vulnerabilities appear almost weekly.
Beware spontaneous popups: Safari menu > Preferences > Security > check "Block popup windows".
Popup windows are useful and required for some websites, but unsolicited popups are commonly used to deceive people into installing unwanted software they would never intentionally install.
Popups themselves cannot infect your Mac, but many contain resource-hungry code that will slow down Internet browsing.
If you ever receive a popup window indicating that your Mac is infected with some ick or that you won some prize, it is 100% fraudulent. Ignore it.
The same goes for a spontaneously appearing dialog insisting that you upgrade your video player right this instant. Such popups are frequently associated with sites that promise to deliver "free" movies or other copyrighted content that is not normally "free".
The more insistent it is that you upgrade or install something, the more likely it is to be a scam. Close the window or tab and forget it.
Ignore hyperventilating popular media outlets that thrive by promoting fear and discord with entertainment products arrogantly presented as "news". Learn what real threats actually exist and how to arm yourself against them:
The most serious threat to your data security is phishing. Most of these attempts are pathetic and are easily recognized, but that hasn't stopped prominent public figures from recently succumbing to this age-old scam.
OS X viruses do not exist, but intentionally malicious or poorly written code, created by either nefarious or inept individuals, is nothing new.
Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
If you elect to use "anti-virus" software, familiarize yourself with its limitations and potential to cause adverse effects, and apply the principle immediately preceding this one.
Most such utilities will only slow down and destabilize your Mac while they look for viruses that do not exist, conveying no benefit whatsoever - other than to make you "feel good" about security, when you should actually be exercising sound judgment, derived from accurate knowledge, based on verifiable facts.
Do install updates from Apple as they become available. No one knows more about Macs and how to protect them than the company that builds them.
Summary: Use common sense and caution when you use your Mac, just like you would in any social context. There is no product, utility, or magic talisman that can protect you from all the evils of mankind.

NONE of the web pages load properly. If I hit "Ctrl + F5" it will fix THAT PAGE ONLY. I have to do this to EVERY SINGLE page I try to load. This ONLY happens with FIREFOX. Internet Explorer works fine. PLEASE HELP! Thanks.

To answer the post title FireFox save all downloads automatically in the download folder, which you can find in the Documents folder. If you want to choose where to save your downloads go to tools>options>check always ask me where to save files.
Secondly, I am assuming you have IE 8 installed as this is the only version that supports this fix that is currently not in beta. Go to control panel>internet options>advanced tab and reset the settings at the bottom. This may or may not fix the problem but it is a good first step.
