Safari DNS problem?

hi im using my g5 now for some time now and from time to time, im having problems opening webpages. its not that these pages are special in any way, what is strange is that it sometimes come up immediately and sometimes i have to hit return three times till teh site comes up. what happens is i enter the url, hit ok, than the progress bar starts but stops after a couple of seconds, i hit return again - no change - i hit return again page comes up. when i simply wait after i had entered the url, it only goes to the proigress bar and thats it. after a while 20 sec's or so page comes up. i have 2 boxes one mac and a windows based pc both connected to a gigabit switch with cat6 cables, checked network settings and they are set to autosensing. this problem occurs only on the mac, not the pc. when i do a ping on the console to lets say google.com i always get the response, i already entered the dns servers manulally in the network section but same result, any idea?

Go to the Safari Menu and select "empty cache". Try Safari again.
If no change, move to the trash the .com.apple.safari.plist file found in your User Library>Preference folder, then restart Safari. You may have a corrupted preference file. If Safari returns to normal operation, you'll need to go to the Preference file to restore any custom settings.
Post back with results.

  • Safari DNS problem in Yosemite? Works, then slow death...

    Safari 8.0 + Yosemite seems to have a problem. It will work for a while, then begins to fail to load and is unable to resolve top level domains -  "Safari Can't Find the Server ... [e.g. apple.com]"
    Restarting Safari often resolves the issue for a while (minutes, hours?), then performance deteriorates until it finally gives up and generates the error. Chrome, on the same machine, does not suffer this problem.
    17" Intel iMac, Safari 8.0, Yosemite, Exede broadband (satellite).
    Anybody else see this issue and/or have a solution?
    iMac (27-inch Mid 2011), OS X Yosemite (10.10)

    Hi Phillip...
    I'm not having issues with Facebook on either Safari or Chrome running Yosemite. Try maintenance for Safari.
    Might be a cookies, cache, or extensions, issue.
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
    Click:   Remove All Website Data
    Then delete the cache.
    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that doesn't help, troubleshoot Safari extensions.
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
    If nothing above worked, restart your internet modem and router if you use one then try Facebook on Safari.

  • I am having a DNS problem with my computer. My laptop connects to the internet and my skype works normally but when i try to surf the web it says "DNS Look up failed".

    MY PROBLEM
    I am having a DNS problem with my laptop. It connects normally to th e wifi internet but when i try to surf the net it says "DNS Look up failed"
    This problem only occurs when with the internet at my house. whenever i connect elsewhere my computer works normally. My ipod, iphone, tablet and other friends computers work normally when they are connected to my internet. i use dmy neigbours nework a couple of times from my house and it wrks normally.
    Also when i turn my laptop on or off i can browse for a few minutes or seconds before it fails again. My skype works like there is no problem
    WHAT I HAVE TRIED TO RESOLVE IT
    I have tried changing the DNS, i used open DNS and google free DNS and it still didnt make a difference.
    I have rebooted router many times, nothing
    I have changed my home router, nothing
    I backed up my computer, resored everything it to factory setting and put everything back on; still nothing
    Run a diagnostics at 'Best buy' and they say nothing is wrong; but i know there is something wrong with the DNS
    I have tried different "sudo" type of codes on my comupter from stuff i got online and nothign has proved fruitful yet.
    i tried using safari, Google chrome and firefox, all not loading
    WHAT DO I DO TO FIX THIS?

    You are correct.  Syncing should transfer any purchased media, including videos, from your device to your iTunes library provided your computer is authorized for the Apple ID used to make these purchases.  You mentioned that you have uninstalled iTunes before, but if you didn't follow this guide exactly, uninstalling iTunes and all of its components in the order specified, it may not have been successful so you should try again:  Windows XP or Windows Vista/7.

  • Maverics, Safari, DNS

    Hi,
    I have, and not even me in my work, problem that Safari can't sometimes open web page because of DNS problem, not even ping. If I do "sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder" in Terminal App, go to Safari and reload page - it is working. It is not a problem of local DNS, this problems persist on diffrenet local subnets.
    I have OSX Mavericks 10.9.2 with Safari 7.0.2 on MacBook Pro early 2011.
    Please help, Regards.

    Almost local DNS on Mikrotik routers, which cached records and if record is not in cache it asks ISP. I'm using MacBook Pro on diffrenet subnets on different places with different ISPs.
    I'm testing Google DNS 8.8.8.8 now if problem persist, if it isn't some DNS problem on Mikrotik OS.

  • Windows 7 VM has DNS Problem When Using Wireless

    Hello All,
    I've been fighting this virtual machine networking problem for over a week now. If anyone has a well-informed suggestion (not a guess) I would appreciate hearing about it.
    Here's the problem in a nutshell and then I'll give more details: I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit) as my primary (i.e., host) OS. I'm running Windows 7 Home Professional (32 bit) as the guest OS in "Windows Virtual PC" (note that this is *not* the same as "Virtual PC 2007"). If I configure the VM to use my host's wired Ethernet connection, the guest OS can always see the machines on my local network and can always reach the Internet just fine. On the other hand, if I configure the VM to use only my host's wireless connection then the guest OS can still see machines on my local network but CANNOT reach the Internet, except very intermittently (e.g., for maybe 1-2 minutes every hour or so).
    I've tried to anticipate the questions you might ask so here is some additional information:
    The computer is a Lenovo W500 laptop running Windows 7 Ultimate, 64-bit. The wireless network adapter is an "Intel WiFi Link 5300 AGN".
    My Internet connection is via AT&T DSL using a wire2 wireless modem/router.
    I have all the updates from Microsoft and Lenovo for this machine. It is 100% up to date with the latest patches and drivers.
    I'm running the 64-bit version (or at least I used the 64 bit installer) of "Windows Virtual PC" which I downloaded  from this link.
    I am *not* running and I did not download "XP Mode".
    When the guest OS loses it's connection to the Internet the following message appears in the Windows Event Log:
    "Name resolution for the name address.yahoo.com timed out after none of the configured DNS servers responded."
    I am able to ping an external machines outside my network but only if I use the IP address. If I specify the host name it cannot be resolved.
    ARE YOU GETTING THE IMPRRESSION THIS IS A DNS PROBLEM??? It looks like I do not have access to a DNS when using the host's wireless connection.
    On the host OS, the "Virtual PC Network Filter Driver" *IS* installed and selected under my "Wireless Network Connection Properties" settings.
    Below are the results of running ipconfig on the guest OS and then the host OS. Note that I am able to ping 192.168.1.254 from the host OS but not from the guest OS. I think this is the crux of the problem.
    Here's what I get from an ipconfig /all executed on the guest OS:

    Hello,
    I am not very familiar wth Microsoft Security Essentials, but believe that it just makes use of the existing Windows Firewall which is present with the operating system.
    To me it is odd that the guest OS reports 192.168.1.254 as the IP address for its gateway and DHCP server yet it cannot access them when pinged.  Let's try pinging from host to guest (and vice-versa)  and see what happens:
    From the host OS at 192.168.1.78, try pinging the guest OS at 192.168.1.75. 
    Then, from the guest OS at 192.168.1.75, trying ping the host OS at 192.168.1.78.
    Is each operating system able to ping each other?
    Regards,
    Aryeh Goretsky

  • DNS problems on Lion

    Hello,
    Ever since I "upgraded" to Lion I have had DNS issues.
    I know it's a DNS problem because IP addresses work fine.  And I know it's not a browser issue, because I am running 'ping google.com' from the command line.
    The symptoms are non-responsive queries to DNS servers, in web browsers or the command line (using ping).  Currently I am using google's DNS servers:  8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4.  I'm absolutely sure that there is nothing wrong with those servers.  The request to the DNS servers eventually times out, and then I hit "Refresh" and the page loads fine.
    Also, if I recylce the network adapter, e.g.
    $ sudo ifconfig en1 down
    $ sudo ifconfig en1 up
    DNS starts working again, temporarily until the next time.  It happens again (randomly, not at regular intervals), I then run the ifconfig down/up again, and DNS works again, and so on.
    This started happening when I went to Lion.
    Thank you

    I have just purchased a brand new Mac Mini Server with Lion Server running. Managed to set up DNS service and 5 zones configured and running fine for 1 to 2 days.
    The DNS in Server Admin suddenly stopped loading the information and buttons are all greyed out last night, with no changes made since I was away at work. It keeps getting the same situation as thread starter mentioned. I have tried all possible means but it just stop loading zones information anymore.
    I would like to try John's approach but it seems I am unable to get 'root' access to perform those actions. Thus would appreciate some advice on how to proceed forward to resolve the issue.
    1. Tried the Directory Utility approach to "Enable Root" but when enter terminal, 'sudo root' does not seem to accept the password I have set. Is there any other means to enable an account to have sufficient access to perform those DNS related resolution steps?
    2. Is there any location to obtain a copy of the default named.conf?

  • Strange DNS problems wrt160n v2

    My router worked fine with 60mbit internet, i bumped up to 90mbit, and it worked fine for 2 weeks or so, and then one day my desktop, with a wired connection, started to go nuts with the DNSserver, what screwed up the internet, pages would not load, when i refreshed the page it would load, but 5 or 6 mouseclicks further and the DNS was gone again... i changed everything, all the settings, the utp cable, even Vista had to go, just to be sure.. but nothing worked, except removing the router, but that was no option for my laptop, which was working perfect, never had a bad connection or DNS problems....
    I went back to the store with the router and there it worked fine, tested everything, but no problems, i came back home, hooked it up, and the problems where back...
    Anybody got a clue, my only idea about this is that the 160n cant cope with the 90mbit,i got p. off and bought myself a wrt320n which works perfect, wired and wireless.

    WRT160N does work with 90 Mbit...might be the settings are not proper on the router.
    However its great that your were able to resolve the issue by WRT160N... 

  • Snow Leopard and DNS problems

    Hi
    I read a lot about SL and DNS problems while accessing websites. It seems that you have to put your DNS server in system settings/network so that you don't get the error message "can't connect to the internet' in your browser window. My problem is that I change locations with my mac quite frequently (home, uni etc) so whenever I am a a new location I have to go to the network settings and manually put in the DNS server. Why do I have to do that with SL when it worked completely fine before the upgrade to SL?
    Cheers
    Martin

    waschbaer22 wrote:
    That is exactly what is happening. The problem with my DHCP server at home is that it doesn't submit the DNS address to the computer somehow. That's why I have to put it in manually each time I reconnect the MB at home after I had it at uni. Once back at uni I then have to go into the settings and delete my manually added home DNS server. Right after that the uni DNS server address appears automatically. So I guess that is just how SL now works and I have to live with it, right? However, why do we need a DNS server anyway to connect to the internet. I thought a DNS server just facilitates the connection to websites but I didn't know that it is crucial.
    You should really try to figure out why your home router isn't providing you with a DNS server address and fix that. It could be a firmware issue, or it could be as simple as you have things set up so that one must manually be set up in the router, and one is not.
    You are also misinformed as to DNS' importance.
    DNS is the service that translates names - say "apple.com" - to the IP addresses - say "17.149.160.49" - that your machine needs to be able to connect to any site.
    Without being able to resolve names to addresses, you have to manually specify numeric IP addresses for everything - effectively meaning you will be unable to use the Internet.

  • DNS Problems with WRT54G

    2 Nights ago we had storms in the area; next morning wife calls me at work and says that internet connection does not work. Get home and take a look at it. I can connect to router wired or wirelessly, was able to look at the configurations, etc. but when I try to access internet pages I get an error indicating DNS problems.
    I have cycled power on cable modem (also Linksys but don't remember model number at the moment) and router. Still had the same problem wired and wirelessly.
    I reset the router to factory defaults, connected to it both wired and wirelessly and still had the DNS rpoblems.
    I reconfigured the router with my original security settings, connected to it wired and wirelessly and still had the DNS problems.
    I connected directly to the cable modem and had no problems accessing internet at all.
    Is there any way that I can force the router into updating DNS information? Or possibly reset DNS information?
    I have run out of things that I know to try. I hope someone can help.

    Usually a DNS problem is caused because the router is not connecting to the Internet properly. 
    Since you have a cable modem, you can usually leave the WRT54G set to its factory default settings, except that you might need to "Clone the MAC address" of the computer that works when connected to your modem.
    Hope this helps.
    If you need more help, please do the following:
    1) state your ISP
    2) state the make and exact model number of your modem  (not the WRT54G).
    3)  Connect your computer, by ethernet cable, directly to your modem  (not the WRT54G).  Verify that you have a properly working Internet connection, then do the following test:
    Go to "Start" > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt.
    A black DOS box will appear. Type in "ipconfig /all" (with no quotes), then hit the Enter key.  Post all of the results, except if your "IP address" does not start with 192, then post only the first 3 digits of it, along with the rest of the info.  To copy the info to your post, highlight (select) the info, then use the copy (Ctrl-c) and paste (Ctrl-v) keys.

    Ok so I just purchased the E4200 and upgraded to .03 (newest firmware) and noticed everytime the router reboots my computer (wired client) would say limited or no internet access for some time after the router has stopped blinking.  When I try to open Chrome and go to google.com I get a DNS error.  If I then try to go to another website like say bing.com it works and then google.com works.  Mind this whole time Nslookup works and when I can't seem to access google.com from my wired connection my iPod can connect to it wirelessly.  Normal or is everyone else experiancing that?  I also suppose if I wait some time while it says limited or no connectivity it will work and switch to internet access.

    DNS is one of the most essential services on any Windows network. Active Directory can’t function without DNS, and it’s is also used by any number of other network functions. So it’s critical to troubleshoot DNS problems as fast as possible. So you can try to reduce the LAN card speed. Here is the step:
    START--> right-click My Network Places and click Properties
    right-click on the device and click properties
    Click on the CONFIGURE button
    Select the ADVANCED tab and the settings you can alter are listed on the left.
    If the issue still persist then here is the link which may help you in resolving the concern: http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/10things/10-tips-for-troubleshooting-dns-problems/1964

  • Safari & JavaScript Problems

    On some websites, I cannot use scripted buttons etc. This is true in all browsers (Safari, Firefox, IE, etc.). I have no problems with my Windows machine. Is there a setting I can change or an add-in that might let me use these sites? I'm not getting any errors in Java, so I'm assuming it's a compatability issue between OSX and the Java being used. Any help would be appreciated because I now have to use my PC to access certain sites (and I have to use them for work).

    This is from my similar Safari problems a few months back. It may apply to your Java problems.
    I confirmed that it's my Tiger Safari failure to handle Java Applets that is giving me troubles. Java scripts are OK.
    Relief, my Safari Java problem is solved. I got the clue to the cause in an Apple discussion, a chap in Germany using Panther had the identical problem.
    The problem was caused by older Internet Plugins contained in my UserID>Library>Internet Plugins.
    These plugins take priority over the Internet Plugins contained in HD>Library>Internet Plugins.
    So removing the duplicate older Internet Plugins from UserID>Library>Internet Plugins corrected the Java applet problem. I had more duplicate Plugins there than the Java ones.
    This happened because when doing a clean install I selected to copy over my UserID from the previous Jaguar system, a logical thing to do to carry my files and settings forward.
    But bringing forward the Internet Plugin Folder is obviously a big problem for those bringing forward their UserID when installing MacOS X.
    Here is a very good site to test your browsers handling of Java Scripts and Applets.

  • A dns problem again?

    I sent email to [email protected] but the engineer there said he did not receive it. Also, I did not receive the email he sent to me through his sun.com email. it sounds a dns problem again.
    I have changed our mx record to:
    @ IN MX junk.domain.com.
    before, it was:
    @ IN MX junk ==>would this cause dns problems?
    Here is the entry in the mail.log which seemed that sun has received my email successfully:
    09-Dec-2005 09:39:10.59 tcp_local D 2 [email protected] rfc822;[email protected] [email protected] dns;btmx1.sun.com (relay1.sun.com [IntraStore TurboSendmail] ESMTP Service ready) smtp;250 recipient <[email protected]> OK

    Your log shows that Sun did indeed receive your mail.
    Sun's mail infrastructure has been under DOS attack for some days. Sometimes that's caused delays of up to several hours for inbound mail to get to us.
    We also have had some virus infected systems pounding our servers. More delays.
    We do contract with an external company to scan for spam/virus scanning. Those folk historically have lost us some mails, too.
    Your MX record isn't likely to make any difference in you sending out mail, but in your ability to receive mails, yes.
