Really weird problem when Browsing internet

Here's my problem-I have to refresh web pages many times until they come up. It's like my computer is hickuping or something. On the 4th or 5th(sometimes 20th) refresh, the page will come right up. It's not a browser problem as the same thing occurs on Safari, Firefox, and IE. It's not my ISP because I browse fine on my other Mac on the same network(wired). Even the download speed on my iMac is 1mbps.
Anyone else have this problem?
Things I've done to try and fix this problem-
empty cache
upgrade from 10.3.9 to 10.5.2
repair permission
What I'm running-
iMac G5
1.8 Ghz PowerPC G5
1 gb ddr sdram

Try this (again):
Empty Safari's cache (from the Safari menu), then close Safari.
Go to Home/Library/Safari and delete the following files:
form values
download.plist
Then go to Home/Library/Preferences and delete
com.apple.Safari.plist
Repair permissions.
Start up Safari again, and things should have improved.
If not, MacFixit have published a very detailed (very!) article on speeding up a slow Safari, here:

  • Really weird problem -- won't download mail from one sender

    I'm having a really weird problem. Apple Mail won't retrieve mail from my Gmail account via POP3 from one sender only. All other mail is downloaded normally, except from a particular sender. What could be causing this? Thanks.

    I am trying to remember and research something about the Junk filter and Gmail accounts. Have you checked in your Junk mailbox, if Junk in enabled and there is a separate Junk mailbox?
    If you click on my name to the left, and look in the bio line of the resulting Profile, you will find an email address you can reach me with. If you email me at that address, I will send you a Gmail address that your sender can test sending a message to me at my Gmail account.

  • How do I stop Firefox from creating untitled web pages when I try to send email from a web page. The only way I have found is to turn the computor off and then reboot. I don't have this problem when using Internet Explorer

    Every time I click on a web site that has an email option the browser starts making untitled web pages and never stops unless I turn the computer off. It is very frustrating to not be able to use an email option when offered by a web site. The only way I can send email messages on the Firefox browser is to go into my hotmail acct. and copy and paste the addresses. I don't have this problem when I use the Internet Explorer browser.

  • Weird problem when executing an update statement

    Please help me out with this issue. This a very weird problem i'm facing while executing the following update statement.
    update tblo.S_TABLE c
    SET (ACCNT_NAME, ACCNT_LOC)
    =
    (select NAME, LOC from S_TABLE1 p
    where p.ROW_ID = c.ACCNT_ID)
    where ROW_ID = 'XXXXX'
    The statement executes perfectly fine in "SQL Plus" but when i try from my application or any SQL Tool that uses ODBC, it fails with the following error
    <eb1>ORA-00923: FROM keyword not found where expected
    State:S1000,Native:923,Origin:[Oracle][ODBC][Ora]</eb1>
    ODBC Driver Used: 9.2.0.2.0

    Yes this could most probably be resolved by upgrading the driver. I'hv tried MS Oracle ODBC driver but that is even more problematic!
    The applications works fine in another environment which uses a Merant ODBC driver. Thanks for your time and advice.

  • Really weird problem with Usage Tracking!

    Hi guys
    We are running OBIEE 11.1.1.6.5 on Exalytics and allmost all is fine and dandy. We have though one weird problem. When we first enabled usage tracking, we sudddenly got some errors on some of our dashboards, saying that we didn't have the privilegies to create temporary tables. Allright we got our user (which is a shared user) the privilegies to create temporary tables, and the reports with the problems started working again! Awesome! But low and behold - then Usage Tracking stopped working, not a single mentioning in the logfiles about it. Maybe an error or, the acknowledgement that Usage Tracking has started, which is the normal.
    So basically we are running without Usage Tracking because the reports that gives us the problems are deemed more important... which they might be, but thats different story...
    Any ideas to what is going on here? We have collected Usage Tracking data, while the reports were broke, so im quite confident that the setup is correct. But why would it stop, when giving "create table" privilege to our shared user?
    Best regards, Jacob

    What is the setting for UsageTrackingDirectInsert?
    Have you tried chaging the output to file instead of database?
    Please see:

  • Really, really weird problem involving iPhone and Exposé

    Hey Mac users, try to figure this one out, this started happening to me today:
    My iPhone is rarely near my Mac Pro, but today I set it on top of my Mac Pro to let it charge. When it's connected to the Edge network, and there's network activity, I get the usual "beepbeepbeep" through my system's speakers, except now there's a twist. Whenever I hear the network activity interference, Exposé on my Mac Pro flips out, and acts as if I pushed the "Show/Hide Desktop" button a whole bunch of times. It stops when the activity stops.
    It's not reproducible all the time, and only happens every once in a while. But it definitely only happens during Edge network activity. I've never gotten it while in 3G or Wifi modes.
    I am guessing that the Edge signal is interfering with my Apple Bluetooth Keyboard, or something. I don't have any keys mapped to "Show Desktop," though.
    If anyone has any thoughts on this, I'd love to hear it. This isn't a really big problem, I just keep my phone away from my Mac Pro now.

    If you go into settings - general - about it will give you the version, the latest one is 2.0.1. Updating your phone may solve the problems. Failing that, take it to your nearest Apple store for advice.

  • Really weird error when trying to install 7.7 on vista

    i have googled this, and searched this and nothing seems to come up. i get an error that says
    "error writing to file: C:\program files\common files\apple\mobile device\support\etc\zoneinfor\europe\amsterdam"
    im downloading itunes straight from apple. so i dont know what this europe business is. also, ive done the whole, delete temp files, run as admin, turn off norton etc.
    what is the deal?

    I had same problem when trying to upgrade 7.2.
    I first used Software Update which downloaded three pkgs.
    AppleMobileDeviceSupport
    iTunesAccess
    iTunesX.
    Running ItunesX gave same error as you.
    What I then tried was to download from Apple iTunes downloads directly:-
    http://www.apple.com/au/itunes/download/
    Running iTunes 7.3.mpkg installed all three modules, and ITunes 7.3.0 runs OK.
    However with 7.3.1 now out the same problem exists.
    So I will try the direct download again.

  • When I open a document in Firefox with Adobe Reader 9, I am unable to print it (no problem when using Internet Explorer)

    I'm running Windows 7 (64-bit), using Firefox 8.0. When I open a document with Adobe Reader 9, I am unable to do anything with it (print, save, etc.) other than view it. When I use Internet Explorer I don't have this problem.

    Not sure what you mean by truncated troubleshooting report, but here's what I copied from "troubleshooting" under "help". My printer is selected as the default printer in Devices and Printers. Also, remember that a document that won't print in Firefox prints fine in Internet Explorer.

  • Really weird problem while Print to Video

    Hi.
    I've tried to fix this problem by searching this forum but I couldn't find any solution so I have no choice but to ask for help.
    Basically when I'm trying to Print my NTSC DV project to tape through firewire enabled camcorder, I can see video with weird gray block all over with no sound. Same thing happens when I'm trying to preview the project through my camcorder.
    I even exported my project and imported it into imovie hd 6 and tried to export to tape but same result.
    My camcorder is Sony HDR-HC5 (HDV) and the setting in both my camera and Final cut pro 6.0.2 is correctly set up.
    Strange thing is, when I'm using HDV1080i60 preset in Final cut pro, log and capture works flawlessly, but somehow I can't even choose HDV device under video playback. I can see all the HDV settings but they are all gray and can't select any of them.
    I remember being able to print DV project to my camcorder with same settings using Final Cut 5.1.4 so I really can't figure out what is wrong with all these.
    Any kind of input would be appreciated.

    Just curious. How do you get your computer too see the HVR. I am using I movie HD and it does not see anything. Is there a camera setup procedure? I looked at the vague manual which was no help.
    Thanks in Advance
    Thom

  • Flash causing abnormally high CPU usage and overheating when browsing internet

    Hello,
    Flash Player (Safari Internet plug-in) spikes to 110-120% of my CPU usage while browsing the internet. This also causes my computer to overheat. (This also occurs when using Firefox)
    I am running OSX 10.8.4 and I am using Adobe Flash Player 11.8.800.94
    I have tried uninstalling through the Adobe uninstaller and resetting Safari and my computer.
    I contacted apple care and they said it was a problem with Adobe and I needed to contact you guys.
    Thank you for your help.

  • Help with a weird problem: MB Air, Internet, and Cinema Display

    I have the first MacBook Air, running the latest Leopard release.
    I use an Airport Extreme with Verizon FIOS.
    I have no problems connecting with the Internet (knock on wood) on the Air. However, when I use a 23-inch Cinema Display (not the most recent CD) with the Air my Internet connection slows to a crawl, or I can't connect at all. I unplug the CD from the Air, and I can connect to the Internet again quickly.
    Any idea what the problem is?
    The Air works well with the CD. The only problem is when I use the Air connected to the CD and access the Web.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    The Air is plugged in, and all appears to be OK with the Air's power. Same with the Cinema Display. The Air appears to have the power to render properly on the Cinema Display but not enough juice left to engage its built-in wi-fi to access the web? I am at a complete loss on this one. Will be calling Apple support or stopping by the Genius Bar, as I have one other item (different computer) I must deal with.
    Thanks.

  • Weird problem when converting project for 23.976 to 25

    We are doing this on a batch of episodes (Just changing the play speed no interpolation.) But basically when we do the conversion some times between the 3 and 4th minute it copies the first frame of the project and pastes it over a frame in the output. It's only like one or two frames. Any idea why this is. It's not a big problem it's just a weird ghost in the machine thing.

    I am getting the same error !! Can someone help on this issue !!
    I have converted/migrated my application from Weblogic Workshop 8.1.4 to 9.2 as per the documentation.
