Safari and Netflix main page issue

Hi All,
I have an issue with safari and the main netflix page. This only happens on the macs in the household, and not the pcs or any of the streaming devices, including the apple TV. When I try to launch the following page from safari, the safari will load part of the page then hang. All other browsers on the machine also stop working (Chrome, Firefox, etc.)
http://movies.netflix.com/WiHome
Loading the page on windows 7 computers does not present this problem. In addition, I have noticed that a traceroute from the windows pcs returns a different address than the macs, and the while the traceroute completes on the Windows machines, it times out on the Macs.
I've removed and re-installed silverlight, performed a dnsflush. I also tried replacing routers. I placed our time capsule directly on the cable modem, and it appeared to help. However, my house is hard wired so this was only a temporarly solution. At any rate it doesn't appear to explain why the PCs remain unaffected.
I installed a different hard wired router, and experienced similar issues, so while I could understand one router being faulty, two is suspect. I would also add that I have this problem both when using a wired connection and a wireless connection.
Are there any specific network settings that would cause this issue with the Macs? I am new to the OS X world and am not as familiar with the underpinnings of the networking settings. Could there be a "stuck" setting somewhere that is causing the browser to use an old dns entry for Netflix?
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Silverlight maybe the problem. Here is a 2011 thread which discusses the problem:

App Store, Safari, and Netflix Problems, please help

Im showing a strong wifi connection with my ipad 2, but when trying to access itunes or the app store, the pages wont fully load. Some of the thumbnail images will only show ? Marks and sometimes page wont even load at all until i try it again. Same happens in safari and netflix. My iphone 4 is working fine however when just on wifi. Ive tried resetting network, hard resets and a bunch of other tricks, but nothing working. Some apps are working fine, but why would this be happening with itunes, safari, and netflix? Does anyone have a solution?

I see you wrote your question at 1:05 AM. Chances are it didn't get read much as some of us who spend a great deal of time here helping people, just might have been asleep. Sarcasm won't help you much.
Now, have you actually fully closed the apps, then reboot? To fully close the apps, go to your home page, then double tap your home button to bring up the task bar (most recently used apps). Hold your finger on any of the recently used apps until they all start to jiggle. You'll see a on the top left of each app. Touch the minus on each of the apps you're having trouble with to fully close them. Then touch your home button once more to stop the apps from jiggling and then again, to return to your home page.
Then, do the hard reset (in case you didn't do it properly). Press and hold BOTH the home and power buttons at the SAME time for at least 10 seconds (ignore the red slider) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will restart.
Try the apps after your iPad comes back up and hopefully, they will work correctly.

Hello I have inherited this new job and I am trying to
understand it asap. I am a complete beginner to html,CF and web
development overall
Yes I grabbed some books, but if you can help me. I really
appreciate is.
I have this file structure
Z:\ToExport\RepDocs\MyReport
Pointing to it
http://myserver/Myreport/
Here you find a MyReport folder
And find 2 .cfm
1. Index
2. version.cfm
I have 2 BIG questions, ok 3
HOW DO YOU MAKE A PAGE THAT WILL CONTAIN
The link of this MyReport.
A main page. In other words.
Main page that has a text Main report
For name of the division_
Then a link called My reports. And Your report
Prefereably sorted
· My reports.
· Your report
HOW DO I CHANGE THE FOLDER
FROM
Z:\ToExport\RepDocs\MyReport
Pointing to it

TO
Z:\NewExport\repmining\myreport
Then point to it
http://myserver/ repmining\myreport
WHY IS THE REPDOCS NOT TYPED IN THE BROWSER WHEN VIEWING THE
MYREPORT.( i dont have to type (repdocs)to view the report?)
in other words:
Z:\ToExport\RepDocs\MyReport
Is typed
http://myserver/Myreport/
without repdocs.
Please excuse me.
I am a real beginner.
Thanks .
Hope someone replies soon.
Take care.

OK, I think I understand your questions, so here goes:
quote:
HOW DO YOU MAKE A PAGE THAT WILL CONTAIN
The link of this MyReport.
Simply have a link on a page, ex:
<a href ="LINK URL">LINK TEXT</a>,
As for your question on your reports, I do not understand
what you are asking
quote:
HOW DO I CHANGE THE FOLDER
FROM
Z:\ToExport\RepDocs\MyReport
Pointing to it
http://myserver/Myreport/
TO
Z:\NewExport\repmining\myreport
Then point to it
http://myserver/ repmining\myreport
If you are directly connected to the server, just create a
folder in (from what it looks like) Z:\ToExport\RepDocs\ that is
the new folwer name, ex:
Z:\ToExport\RepDocs\NEW_folder and put files into it. If you
are now directly connected to the server, use a program like FTP
server to connect via FTP and do the same.

in other words:
Z:\ToExport\RepDocs\MyReport
Is typed
http://myserver/Myreport/
this is simply because
http://myserver/Myreport/ is
set to point at the folder Z:\ToExport\RepDocs\MyReport therefore
it looks like
http://myserver is set to the folder
Z:\ToExport\RepDocs\ anything you add into a folder after that will
be included.
I hop eI answered some of your questions

Some images do not display in browser, iPad Air 2. When I load a page with several jpgs (one 1920x720, then 8-10 800x800px), only the first few are shown. Behaviour is similar for Safari and Chrome. Website issue or iPad?

I have just bought an iPad, partly to check that my websites work OK on mobile devices. When I load a page with several jpgs (e.g. one 1920x720, then 8-10 800x800px), only the first few are shown. If I remove the large one, that sometimes fixes the problem. Behaviour is similar for Safari and Chrome. Is this a website issue or iPad?

Sorry, I didn't make myself clear. I'm using a new Wordpress theme that is meant to be responsive. The large image is for a header, than you scroll down to see the rest, one by one. Some one the pages work OK on my iPad, typically the old ones where the maximum image size was 500 x 500. It's the new pages and those I've updated that are causing the problem. On the iPad the large image loads, then a couple of the small ones become visible as I scroll down, but then darkness (rather like my knowledge level).
Being new to IOS and iPads, I'm trying to work out whether I should be looking here, or amongst the Wordpress stuff for a solution.
Here's the website with its new theme: http://www.new-zealand-pictures.com/

When I am on an Internet site, the iPad will suddenly flash a grey screen and then go to the home page". I then have to go back to safari and reopen my page. Anyone else have this trouble?

When I am on an Internet site, my iPad will suddenly flash a grey screen and then go back to the home screen where I have to start Safari again and reopen my page. It does it frequently sometimes 3 times within 5 minutes. Anyone else have this trouble? It is driving me crazy!

Maverick OS and Netflix. Any issues?

Netflix has stopped working on my iMac since I installed Maverick. iTunes and Apple TV are still operating, and Netflix opens but won't load content. 'm not sure if there's a connection, but has anyone encountered the same issue?

Yeah, me too. I contacted Netflix and they said to uninstall and reinstall microsoft Silverlight.

Safari and google plus site issues.

Safari and google plus crashes when I go to the google plus website, but it works with my other browser apps. Help? I am using the mac retina display.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Step 1
For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
          SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
          View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if Safari crashed, you would enter "Safari" (without the quotes.)
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, select
          DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

Safari and Netflix.

Before Leopard when I went to my Netflix account I entered my username and password then click on the "Continue" button of the netflix page. With Leopard I don't see the continue button anymore... Do I have to change some settings?
Thanks
Macbook, macbook Pro and PPCG5 all 10.5.1 and Safari 3.0.4

Thanks for the reply.
If you try netflix with firefox you'll see the continue button. That's what I could see before upgrading to leaopard.

How do I Keep the "zoom" size setting the same each time I open Safari and from web page to web page?

I have a 27" iMac when I open Safari the web page is only 1/3 the size of the full screen Safari window. I know how to ZOOM in on the web page! My question is, How do I keep this ZOOM setting for all web pages and each time I open Safari up?

Sorry, but that's not possible.
An alternative might be to use Zoom in System Preferences > Accessibility
Or try a different screen resolutioin in System Preferences > Displays > Scaled

Safari and Firefox crashing - Security issue?

I was running Safari 2.X.X (I think it was 2.0.4 and Tiger 10.4.X) when Safari started crashing. The crashing was every 10 minutes or so, but eventually Safari crashed almost instantly when opening, even if all I did was open Safari from my Dock.
I tried using Firefox, but that too, started crashing almost instantly, after being opened.
I restarted my PowerBook (G4, 1.33) and the problem still remained. I then updated OS X Tiger to 10.4.11 which also upgraded Safari to 3.0.4. After the update, Safari crashed once or twice, but then has been stable for "a while now." However, Firefox still crashes like mad (Edit: Firefox has now remained open and not crashed for a few minutes now).
Is there anyway a virus/spyware/malware caused this crashing? A search of the Internet seemed to indicate things like corrupt preferences or issues with Input Managers. However, I'd like a little more reassuring, as well as suggestions to why Safari now seems to work ok, but Firefox still crashes.
Any suggestions or comments?

I can't speak for Firefox (do you have the latest version?) but
If your Safari keeps crashing, or if you are updating Safari (or just have):
Input Managers and other plug-ins from third parties can do as much harm as good. They use a security loophole to reach right into your applications' code and change that code as the application starts up. If you have installed 10.4.11 and Safari is crashing, the very first thing to do is clear out your InputManagers folders (both in your own Library and in the top-level Library), log out and log back in, and try again.
So, disable all third party add-ons before updating Safari, as they may not have been updated yet for the new version. Add them back one by one. If something goes awry, remove it again and check on the software manufacturer's website for news of an update to match your version of Safari. Remember: Tiger up to 10.4.10 used Safari 2.0.4 or, if you downloaded it, Safari 3.0.3 beta. Safari 10.4.11 uses Safari 3.0.4 which is not a beta. If Safari 3.0.4 on 10.4.11 is not the fastest browser you have ever used, then something is wrong!
(Trying to revert to Safari 2 when running 10.4.11 can have repercussions, as Safari 3.0.4 uses a completely different webkit on which other applications like iChat, Mail, Dashboard widgets etc also rely.)
Most errors reported here after an update are due to an unrepaired or undetected inherent fault in the system, and/or a third party ad-on. Add-on that have been frequently mentioned here, among others, for causing such problems are Piclens, Saft, AcidSearch and Pithhelmet. If you have them, trash them and go the developer's sites to see if new versions are available for Safari 3.0.4.
You should also ensure, if you are running Tiger 10.4.11, that you have downloaded and installed the correct version for your Mac of Security Update 2008-001.
As Leopard also uses Safari 3.0.4, much of the above may well also apply to Leopard, but is not guaranteed.

I can't access hotmail or gmail. I get the message "unable to connect to the server". However I can access both msn and google main page and not problems with other sites. Any ideas of what to do?

Cannot access hotmail or gmail, although no problems with the actual msn home page or other sites. I get the message: Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at .....
== URL of affected sites ==
http://login.live.com; http://www.google.com

Hi thanks for reply.
No, not that I'm aware. How/Where can I check this?
The only think I've done recently is install a different antivirus program and uninstall the old one which had expired. Not sure if this is linked to the problem...?

Filling a text field in Safari and saving the page as 'save as'

My telephone system creates a call log and I like to automate downloading it weekly.
In order to get in it needs to enter a password (there is also a user name field but that is left blank by me).
Once in is should safe a ‘Save as” copy to my desktop.
I have written a script and it does not work (probably because I am not good at scripting.
Can anyone help?
This script gets me as far as the dialog box that asks for Password to open.
tell application "Safari"
activate
tell (make new document) to set URL to "http://192.168.1.90"
Thanks

Thank you for all your help above.
Just to confirm your advice, am I right with the following conclusions? :
1. The script (function) to fill the text field with the modification date of a different PDF file needs to be stored in a folder level .js file.
2. The document containing the text field needs to call the .js function either within the document script or within the custom script property of the text field itself.
Further to that can you just advise on the syntax for accessing the modification date of the other document.
Do I need to assign a variable to the address of the file to be used, and then use this variable in the text form filling script (as below) or can I use a direct file reference at the .modDate command.
var LastSync = "C:\sync\bin\lastsync.pdf";
var strMsg = util.printd("h:MM tt",LastSync.modDate) + " on ";
strMsg += util.printd("dddd, d mmmm, yyyy",LastSync.modDate);
this.getField("LastSyncDate").value = strMsg;
If the syntax is totally different to the above I would be very grateful for some guidance in the right direction.
I much appreciate your time to help me ... I'm almost there.
Kind Regards,

Safari and Chrome will not display some pages right for new user account

Not sure this is a Safari issue actually. Behavior is also in Chrome, but not Firefox. If I need to post elsewhere please advise.
24"imac running 10.5.8. 2gb ram, software update run,
Setup a new user account. Machine will have 2 users.
When I login as the new user, in both Safari and Chrome, some pages - google, ebay, amazon, cnn, yahoo, do not display correctly. Mainly empty space, a few graphics all wrong. They do display correctly in Firefox.
I assumed it was the user. So I added a 3rd user. Same behavior. Tried giving the new user admin rights. Same problem.
For the admin account, everything's fine on those pages, both in Safari and Chrome.
It feels like the new user is not getting access to something it needs, but it also feels like more than a font problem. Thanks for any suggestions. Dan

Thanks for your thoughts. Here's what I've learned. The browsers display correctly for the new user after SafeBoot. I removed all startup items, to no avail. Removed all fonts from the new user account, nothing. Removed all fonts from the admin user's library, nothing. Then I removed all fonts from the HD library, and that fixed it for the new user. Now I just have to figure out which one it was.
So in summary, a bad font in the HD library was affecting Safari and Chrome (but not Firefox) in new user accounts, but not in the admin user's account. Nice. D

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...
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19596
After installing, boot holding down CMD+s, then when the prompt shows, type in...
applejack AUTO
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.
BTW, several ISPs seem to have trouble with their DNS Servers lately, might try these insead...
