Really? Yahoo's homepage won't load? What else?

I'm lost. I just beefed up my RAM enough to poke around on this old computer. It's a lot faster than it was a few minutes ago. I startd okin aorund the inernet. Yahoo! says it needs the new version of Safari in order t load. I click the link. That tells me that I need 10.5. What? Why is everything else seemingly okay? I'm still poking. But about to junk all five of my G4s. Two are QS, the other three are not. Is it worth adding to th hard drive and getng a half decent couple computers here? I was thinking of 200G hard drive, and 1G SDRAM in order to store all my music on .WAV files and to sill poke around on the net from time to time.
Is this just going to be a headache? I'm wanting to start a small internet radio station. I have tons of great music and the know-how.

You don't need Leopard 10.5 to view Yahoo's sites. My G4 laptop & desktop running Tiger 10.4 work just fine on Yahoo's sites. You probably need a newer browser than Safari for 10.3. Try the Firefox browser for OS 10.3 v2.0.0.20 (freeware) http://www.versiondownload.com/firefox/2.0.0.20

  • Yahoo mail contacts won't load on Firefox 3.6

    I am using FF 3.6 on XP. Yahoo mail contacts won't load so I can't access my contacts list for emails, etc.
    I am able to successfully open Yahoo mail and view my contacts in IE 7. The contacts tab opens and I can access addresses for email etc.
    What's up w/ that?

    Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode? <br />

  • Yahoo/Flickr just WON'T LOAD on my iMac. Help!

    Hey folks,
    I'm the very proud owner of a new iMac. But I'm just getting my bookmarks sorted etc using Firefox - my Yahoo mail just won't load up. In fact, the site keeps crashing and half loading. And when I did get through to the mail, the main panel was missing so I couldn't see any messages.
    I have re-started, tried using Safari... nothing. I am really baffled and getting a little angry about this!
    Every other website is loading perfectly. So as Flickr is connected, maybe it's a problem on their side, but I'm not sure.
    Anybody have any tips?

    And, I used my housemate's PC - it worked fine on there.

  • Firefox homepage won't load, page says untitled

    My Firefox Yahoo homepage will not load. It's the version 3.6.6. It opens to a blank page that says UNTITLED no matter what site I try to access.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Today about 2 hours ago ==
    == User Agent ==
    Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.0; Trident/4.0; SLCC1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; Media Center PC 5.0; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30618; .NET4.0C; yie8)

    This may solve the problem!
    If you have just updated the latest version of Firefox and have Norton Security, download the latest version of Firefox and save it to your hard drive. Then uninstall the version that you are currently using then install your saved latest version and then restart your computer. This totally solved my problem with Firefox and my Norton Security 2010.
    Hope this helps.

  • HT5271 I just updated OSX 10.7.4 and now Safari won't load - what do I need to do to get Safari working again?

    I just updated my operating system to OSX 10.7.4.  Now Safari won't load.
    I ran disc utilities and it still wont load.  It tells me that Safari quit unexpectedly and gives me the option to submit a report of to re-open.
    I have tried to find an updated Safari online but only find 5.1.7 updates for Windows.
    What do I need to do to get Safari back?

    Updating to Safari 6 for Lion may help.
    Click here >  Safari Quits Every Time Opened: Apple Support Communities
    Then click the link posted by:  gregoryfromcork
    That will automatically download this file >  Safari6Lion.pkg.download
    Now quit Safari.
    Go to your Downloads folder and double click that file and follow the instructions for installing.
    Then restart your Mac, try Safari.
    There are no Safari 5.1.7 for Mac standalone downloads available 

  • Trying to play cards on Yahoo and applet won't load

    The applet that opens the room I want to play in won't load. I just get a blank page.
    I have done all the things that Yahoo suggest, re cache etc and it still won't load.
    I even reloaded java.

    Try rebooting the device.  press and hold the home and power buttons until the Apple icon is displayed, then let go.

  • Google, Yahoo, and Youtube won't load... all other sites do!

    I have searched for hours to the solution but I haven't been able to find one! I don't know what else I can tell you besides that I have disabled (and then trashed) peerguardian, have tried disabling the mac firewall and Glimmer Blocker (adblocker), and even tried resetting my router.
    What is weird that my ipod touch is able to access all these sites but Safari and Firefox can't. All of this just happened today.
    T.H.A.N.K. Y.O.U to everyone!

    got it on my configuration...
    Issue identified: recent modifications to either how Google, Yahoo or YouTube DNS or Port are set-up or concurrently updated in the "Webspider and Bots" list from bluetack used in softwares such as Peerguardian, Safepeer or the like, resulted in the Mac not being able to recognize the server.
    Solution: I've modified the filter so that it allows "standard port", and the problem has been resolved.
    Note that I had a similar problem with a more obscure website, and the same solution applied though on a different IP list.
    Note to Snow600: you need to "Disable filters" in Peerguardian first, and then you can quit, then uninstall it. This was the test I made to identify my issue. Just quitting and trashing Peerguardian didn't solve the issue at first, so I reinstalled, disabled filters, and it worked...

  • Craigslist won't load everything else does

    I upgraded to Firefox 5 and now when I try to go to Craigslist I get a white page never loads Everything else works fine

    I did nothing recently. And I just checked Safari, and there are no cookies for Wikipedia.
    On this account where Safari can't access Wikipedia (blank page, as you say, not server error) Firefox accesses Wikipedia fine.
    I need help troubleshooting this one. It's something a bit out of my depth.

  • Oracle Express homepage won't load

    When 2000 loads I'll click start database, try to go to the homepage but it isn't broadcasting.
    I've tried stopping and restarting but it does no good.
    I haven't installed any firewall's or anything like that, but I don't see what difference that makes because I'm just accessing it from my local machine.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Exist some Firewall that is blocking the port 8080 ?

  • Yahoo home page won't load

    We noticed you may have signed in or signed out in another window. Click OK to reload your page.
    Since Firefox did an automatic update to 13.0, I can no longer load my Yahoo hope page. I get the above message and have to click OK several times to get rid of it and get to my home page. I see this is a common problem, but no real solutions and most of the threads about it are locked now. What is going on? Where can I go on Mozilla to downgrade back to version 12.0?

  • Since I set my history to remember all again, whenever I start firefox (my homepage is bing) it loads indefinitely and revs up to a high memory load. The homepage won't load and I am forced to endtask in task manager.

    I tried using CCleaner to delete the cookies and clean my registry but it didn't work. I also tried chkdsk /f but that didn't work.
    Whenever I try to run firefox it ramps up the memory and indefinitely loads a blank page. Considering I deleted my cookies in firefox with CCleaner then it should be loading my homepage which is Bing.com. I am able to maximize and minimize the browser but it loads and is set to "not responding" by my OS so I can't click any buttons like "home" or get into the options menu.
    I am speaking to you now from internet explorer. :-(

    Don't know how but it was gone for a day or two, and I updated but now it's back again and I haven't done anything to cause it. If it doesn't go away I'm going to go to a less secure but more stable browser, like chrome. I wish I didn't have to do that but at this point I don't see any other choice.

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac and are alternately opening one or the other.
    Pages 5.5.1 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '08/'09 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    Pages'08/'09 can not open Pages 5.5.1 files and Pages 5.5.1 alters Pages '09 files.
    Right click open to chose the correct version of Pages for your files.
    Pages 5.5.1 is a supposed "upgrade" but has over 100 features missing. I am surprised you didn't notice the huge difference in the User Interface as well.
    If you are unhappy about all this mess, say so by rating/reviewing Pages 5.5.1 in the App Store.
