Problems with WiFi and Safari

I have am having problems with my Wifi/Safari. I connect to my WiFi, by entering my password, yet the padlock icon remains, is this normal? Then, when I try to get onto any website on Safari, it says 'Safari can't open the page because it can't find the server.'
I have tried renewing the lease (not that it is a paid connection, this is my own personal Wifi connection), but that doesn't work either.
Any pointers?
Thanks.

Yes the padlock will stay locked and try getting on Youtube and see if that works because this happened to me and Youtube worked then later i found out that the website i had typed in was not a real website i had it typed in wrong so try that and i hope it works.

Problems with Mail and Safari

Hi,
I'm running OS 10.11 and am having some consistent problems with Mail and Safari on my MacPro Dual 2.66. Here they are:
Sometimes, for no apparent reason, selecting these applications from the dock no longer opens the application (or a new window if already opened), but causes them to be revealed in the finder.
In Safari, when this problem occurs, another symptom seems to be that new windows will ONLY open in a new tab, even though I have preferences set to open links in a new window. If I click on a bookmark within a folder in the bookmark toolbar, Safari will open ALL the bookmarks in the folder in new tabs!!
In Mail, when I open my Inbox, clicking on various messages will highlight (in blue) ALL the messages I'm clicking on, instead of simply displaying the highlighted message in the reader.
The only way to get things back to normal is to reboot my machine, which is getting to be a total drag, especially since this seems to happen fairly often.
One other thing that may be related- if my screen saver is running, and I move the mouse to go to an active screen, the computer will "freeze." It stays like this indefinitely- I figured out that if I press the button on the machine itself it will go to sleep, and I can wake it up and then everything is fine, but I don't understand what's going on.
I have tried using Disk Utility and Disk Warrior, and have used OnyX to clean out my system cache and aall sorts of other stuff, but to no avail.
Is anybody else experiencing any of this? I'm starting to get really frustrated. Thanks for any advice.
Cheers,
Andrew

Scott,
I had posted earlier that I had Flash payer problems and then QuickTime and PDF preview problems too, on my Intel PowerMac. I could not figure out what the problem was, because fixing permissions and moving plugins did not work. Console indicated that the Quicktime components were not found, with the problem in a webkit pref file somewhere (nil field value). Anyway, I bailed and reinstalled Leopard from a 10.5.0 DVD, and then updated using the combo updater to 10.5.3. Everything worked. Then, after the 'Java for Mac OSX 10.5 Update 1', it all broke again. This time, repairing permissions resulted in:
User differs on "System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.4.2/Home/lib/jvm.cfg", should be 0, user is 95.
User differs on "System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.4.2/Libraries/classlist" , should be 0, user is 95.
Now it all works again. This is obviously a flaw with the Java update, and also somehow Disk Utility did not find it earlier. Anyway, take a look at reverting the Java update, or manually changing user for those files (I suppose user 0 is root, but maybe it is nobody).
Obscure....

Hello community I have a big problem with my iphone 4s as precent problem with wifi and ios7. my phone was a champ when actualize this, eh degrade searched everything but I can not because I get the error 3194. I want a solution please

This support document http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4451 relates to the 3194 error. Generally this error has to do with trying to install an iOS that is not the most current. Maybe you tried to jailbreak the phone, or downgrade iOS? Any of this apply to you?

Problems with apps and safari since installing Yosemite

I could have shot myself after installing Maverick when it cam out but after a zillion updates and finally a 100 mile drive to the nearest Apple store and the genius bar it seemed to be working fine. I dreaded installing Yosemite but as I have and iPad mini, and Yosemite is billed to work more harmoniously with that, I did the download. Since then and even following the recent 'update', opening Safari takes forever, I get the rainbow wheel of doom. There is frequently a delay between my typing (about 35 words per minute) and actually seeing the curser and letters on screen, and often webpages just dump. Other times, apps or webpages will just spontaneously pop open. Sometimes Safari can't connect to pages. Not my wifi as if I just choose another page it is fine. I am actually back to using Chrome because I don't seem to have the same problems as with Safari..... go figure. 5 years ago after years of pc's and the frustration of having hardware and software that were specifically made for each other, I thru in the towel and paid the bucks for a MacPro laptop and I loved my first three years. Now, my machine ***** as does Safari!! an Apple app! I feel like I need to debug, but I don't have any thing like MacKeeper on it now (the Genius bar guy took MacKeeper off when I had that visit to solve the Maverick problems). I'm tempted to reinstall it but I read so many posts saying that folks had problems with a virus that they attributed to MacKeeper. So, anyone else having these same problems and can anyone recommend a good cleanup and maintenance software so I can clean this up?

Do not install MacKeeper.
Back up your Mac if you have not already done so. To learn how to use Time Machine read Mac Basics: Time Machine backs up your Mac - Apple Support.
Determine if the same problems also occur in "Safe Mode":
Safe Mode or "Safe Boot" is a troubleshooting mode that bypasses all third party system extensions and loads only required system components. Read about it: Starting up in Safe Mode
You must disable FileVault before you can start your Mac in Safe Mode.
Starting your Mac in Safe Mode will take longer than usual, graphics will not render smoothly, audio is disabled on some Macs, and some programs (iTunes for example) may not work at all.
Merely starting your Mac in Safe Mode is not intended to resolve the problem, it's to observe its performance without certain additional components.
To end Safe Mode restart your Mac normally. Shutdown will take longer as well.

Problem with wifi and I-phones 4S

Hello everyone,
I have a problem with my Cisco wifi.
Here at work i am using 2 Cisco 1100 series Aironet    (811G) (intalled in august 2005)
Product informations :
AIR-AP1121G-E-K9
Top                                       Assembly Serial Number:
FCZ0921V07A
System                                       Software Filename:
c1100-k9w7-tar.123-4.JA
System                                       Software Version:
12.3(4)JA
Bootloader                                       Version:
12.3(2)JA3
All I-phones 4S OS6 are kind of loosing connection, if i am using google i will be able to use it once but never twices, the second time google will always time out, but the users are still able to receive and send their emails so the connection is still up.
On the manager i can see every Iphone, and everything seems to be ok, the "secutrity" is a simple 128bits wep key and i have a macadress filter activated and finally the SSID is not broadcasted.
The iphones are working smoothly with any modern wifi.
So my questions are, is it a firmware problem? a configuration problem? or it is time to upgrade the hardware?
Thank you for any help you can provide.

Turning off the 2 Aironet and activating the router's wifi, this wifi is not powerfull enough to cover the whole office but for now this is more than enough.

Problems with Chrome and Safari

About one week ago, I started having some issues with my mid-2012 MBP. After troubleshooting various items, I both reinstalled OSX and then erased the hard drive and reinstalled OSX. As far as I can tell, most of the minor issues were taken care of.
Two issues persist.
1. The thumbnail photos that accompany status updates in my Facebook News Feed are not showing up. It's either blank, or a broken photo symbol. This is happening intermittently in both Chrome and Safari. I should add, since the latest install of OSX, Chrome and Adobe Flash have been the only things I have downloaded. And the issue remained in Safari after the fresh install and before downloading Chrome, so I know this issue isn't Chrome related. (It also happens with the Test user profile I have in which there are no other programs.)
2. Along with (1), both Chrome and Safari have been partially or fully freezing. Again, this is intermittently. When the browsers freeze up, the Activity Monitor shows both Chrome and Safari as using over 100% of the CPU. It does not resolve itself in Chrome and requries a force quit. Safari has been resolving itself.
Like I said, I have already erased the hard drive and reinstalled OSX. I have also ran the Hardware Test and it found nothing; and my S.M.A.R.T. status is Verified. I have also reset the PRAM and resent the SMC.
Additionally, the newly downloaded Chrome is running as it is when downloaded from the site. That is, no extra plug-ins or extensions.
Anyone have any ideas about what the issues could be?

Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

Problems with iWebsite and Safari

Hi,
Lately I've been having problems with my site on Safari (Version 2.0.4). The site I have is for my band and everything loads fine except for the music clips. I've had this site up since February and only started having this problem within the last month. It works fine on Firefox (Version 1.5.0.4) and even on Exporer (Version 5.2).
Here's a link to a problem page.
http://www.crashcontrol.ca/Critical.html
So the whole page loads fine except for the song at the bottom. I just get a Quicktime symbol and a question mark. I've tried clearing the caches and resetting Safari (which did work once a few weeks ago)but no luck. I haven't updated these song pages in iWeb (Version 1.1.2) in a while and they use to play fine in Safari.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks
Dave

hi dave,
so first of all, when there is a question mark, it means that the file is missing! it is not at the place where it should be or it simply no there. check over that the file is where it should be!
second, i just visited (under safari 2.0.4) the link you gave:
http://www.crashcontrol.ca/Critical.html
and the file just loads normal here, i tried all the others and ALL of the under MUSIC work!
so you do might wanna empty your cache again!

Problems with iChat and Safari

Yesterday I got to work and started up my beloved iMac G5, but iChat would not open and it gives me the following note: The application iChat quit unexpectedly. Mac OS X and other applications are not affected. Click Reopen to open the application again. Click Report to see more details or send a report to Apple.
I have tried to reopen and sent several reports to Apple but nothing has helped so far. It is also doing this with my Toast 7 and Safari will unexpectedly quit in the middle of an action.
Has any one else experienced this kind of problem? I'm running Tiger as an operating system and I'm the only one at the office that is having this problem. And my system at home, which is the same, if fine as well. I ran Disk Utility, which found a preference problem that it said it fixed. I haven't gone further yet, since I still need to actually USE my computer during work hours, but if anyone has an idea, I would greatly appreciate it!
Thanks!

Find the program Pacifist online. Run it with your Tiger DVD in the machine (don't boot from it) and re-install iChat.
Let me know!

Homehub 3 problems with wifi and network - please ...

I am hoping someone can help me, as I am struggling to work out why I am getting so many problems with my network at home.
I have BT Infinity, and a Homehub 3A. I have had BT broadband for years. Infinity was added in Feb 2013. The HH3A is the original one supplied to me years ago.
When Infinity was installed I also added a pair of TP Link powerline adapters, to provide a connection to an unmanaged network switch in the lounge.
A rough outline of what I have connected to the router is:
Wired
- Synology NAS Diskstation
- Win7 laptop
- powerline adapter
Wifi
- 3 iphones
- 2 ipads
- Win7 laptop
- 2 Win Vista laptops
Powerline / network switch
- Sonos bridge
- TV
- BluRay
- Vodafone booster
- SkyHD
Recently I am getting a number of different problems:
1) wifi drops to everything connected to the router, at the same time, all blue lights are on the router
I lose wifi connection to the internet, from all devices, at the same time, but also the connection from my laptop to the NAS drops.
2) Anything connected to the Powerline adapter is rarely available
I try and connect to Sonos, or my sky box or the TV, but they aren't connected to the router. The lights on the powerline adapters indicate everything is fine, and the HH3 has all blue lights. But my iphone and laptop cannot find my Sonos. My iphone app cannot find my sky box. And on the TV it says it is not connected to the internet. To solve this problem I have to power cycle the pair of Powerline adapters.
Some observations:
1) these problems are all since Infinity was installed. I have no idea if that is relevant.
2) My NAS Diskstation has a powersave mode. I noticed last night that when I woke it up, the powerline adapters disconnected briefly, before reconnecting. But when they did reconnect I could not access anything connected to them. It was as if the NAS had booted them off the network, and then they couldn't get back on.
3) I run a 10m brand new Cat5e cable from the infinity modem to my router, because the modem is in the garage.
Can anyone help? I am tearing my hair out with this.
Thanks for any help.

If you set the devices on the home hub to always use the same IP address, then that can help.
The problem is that when the DHCP lease expires, the home hub often gives the device a different IP address, and this breaks the port forwarding rules.
Some routers allow you to specify which IP addresses are to be reserved, but the home hub does not.
There are some useful help pages here, for BT Broadband customers only, on my personal website.

Well, it started as a problem with wifi and bluetooth

Early this morning, both my wifi and bluetooth wouldn't work properly.
I turned off my ipod touch, and turned it back on.
Then, both my wifi and bluetooth were "grayed out".
AND for some reason, my iPod couldn't access any of my music.
All of my music still took up the hard drive space on the iPod, but it would not show up.
Now, I put my iPod into recovery mode, and plugged it into my computer.
I'm trying to restore it and update to the newest software, but after iTunes fully downloads the new OS, I get an error message saying that my connection timed out.
So now, my iPod is pretty much useless.
Anything I can do to make sure I'm not losing $300 because of Apple's faulty software?
It's a 3rd Gen 32GB iPod Touch.

No.
The problem started while I still had the old 3.1.2 OS.
After all the primarily listed problems, I was eventually able to get it restore and update to 4.1.
It's not the OS.
I bought my iPod Touch just under a year ago, not too long after New Years.
I'll check in with Apple about it; You may be right about the faulty wireless hardware.
Just strange how it happened to mess up now.

My early macbook air has problems with mail and safari

When I try to open either mail or safari, each crashes with a message "safari (or mail) quit unexpectedly. This is a very recent problem.

This article addresses Safari quitting unexpectedly and suggests a remedy: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11931
Yes, you have the latest Safari, so I believe this will help.

So clearly there's a problem with WiFi and Leopard.....

...that is affecting a subset of us. This problem is driving me nuts, and I've searched this board, as well as many others aggressively for a fix. So far, I've only found a few work-arounds, that don't really work.
The question is, are we certain that Apple has picked up this issue and is working on it? Any comments?

I am now having problems with my imac (2.16 core two duo, 20") running 10.5.1. I have been using this imac for nearly a year now with a wireless coneection and have never had a problem. I installed Leopard a month ago and have had no problems.
Yesterday I noticed my connection drop several times but I could always get it back. I have a good wireless connection on my ibook so I know my router is good. This morning my imac dropped the wireless connection and I cannot get it back. I had to run an ethernet cable to regain my connection.
It seems from a quick look around the boards that this problem is plaguing imacs only. I have noticed this problem happening with imacs running leopard and tiger. Hope a solution is found soon.
EDIT: I restarted the imac and my airport connection returned. I hope this doesn't become a regular thing.
