Safari Not Loading Selected Sites

Safari is not loading few sites and if it does (like Facebook/Twitter/BBC/Flipkart/Amazon), it is very slow and it turns out to be like the screenshot attached. But opens banking sites, apple.com and other sites absolutely fine (snapdeal.com)
1. Checked and changed the DNS once.
2. Restarted the WiFi router and my Macbook Air.
3. Checked the Firewall & Gatekeeper settings
Macbook Air (Mid 2013), Mavericks 10.9.4
Please help.
Thanks.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe modeand log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

  • Safari not loading some sites.

    I don't believe I have changed anything in Safari, but this problem has recently started occuring.
    Half the sites I go to won't load properly. It seems to try, as the progress bar begins to fill, but after a couple of seconds it gives up and leaves me with a white page. The activity window shows the page as being 1 byte in size.
    This seems to happen more often on some sites than others, whereas some will not be affected at all and will work fine. Some of the offending sites will also load if I copy/paste the link into a new tab, but not if I reload.
    It also occurs in the latest Webkit build (34130) but not in Firefox (3.0RC1) or Camino (1.6.1).
    I've tried resetting Safari, but to no avail.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I have the same problem, and often end up going back to Firefox as a result.
    Also, Safari will very often not load www.hotmail.com. I get the following message -
    "Windows Live ID is unavailable from this site for one of the following reasons:
    This site may be experiencing a problem.
    The site may not be a member of Windows Live ID.
    If I clean out all the hotmail related cookies, it then does usually load, but what a pain. I recently made Safari my preferred browser, but now regret having done so. Since this seems to be an Apple problem, hope they resolve it soon.

  • IMac will not load internnet sites despite it having all green lights on the Network Diagnostics screen.  In other words there is a valid internet signal going into the iMac, but the machine will not load sites. Help? iOS 10.9.5

    iMac will not load internet sites, despite having all green lights (strong WiFi signal etc) on the Network Diagnostics screen. in other words there is a strong

  • Why will safari not load web pages with the prefix "fhp"?

    Why will safari not load web pages with the prefix "fhp"?

    Because it doesn't recognise them as valid addresses - just as the error message  says.
    Firefox is similar : Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (fhp) isn't associated with any program.
    Where are you seeing this problem ?.

  • Safari not loading smoothly and images not loading at all on some sites

    Hi, for the past few days Safari has started to load very slowly and on certain sites Amazon & Mark & Spencers for example it takes ages to load and then once loaded no images are displayed. Blue ? mark...
    I have searched through the pages and tried resetting, unchecking etc etc  Re installed flash to no avail
    Can anyone help me? Driving me insane!!

    If you have the Develop menu enabled, click Develop from the Safari menu bar. From the drop down menu if there is a check mark nex to Disable Images, click there once to disable.
    If that isn't the issue, try troubleshooting plugins and extensions.
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Security tab.
    Deselect:  Allow all other plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.
    If it's not a plug-in issue, select the Extensions tab. If there are any extensions installed, turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.  If that made a difference, uninstall one at a time, quit and relaunch Safari to test.

  • Safari not loading particular web sites

    Safari 5.1.7: Snow Leopard 10.6.8: MBP 2.53 Mid 2009: 8/500    
    For some reason, Safari does not load drudgereport.com or rushlimbaugh.com.  This just started today.
    Firefox has some problems too. Chrome loads both sites just fine.
    Here is what I've done to try and remedy this in Safari - my browser of choice:
    Re-Installed Safari
    Deleted Drudge and Rush cookies
    Reset Safari
    Checked my fonts for duplicates (none found)
    Restarted modem & Apple router (shut down for 1 minute +)
    Ran applejack
    Ran Coctail
    De fragged hard drive
    Shut down and restarted after a minute or two
    Used terminal to find and enter the IP address. (host drudgerepord.com  and host rushlimbaugh.com)
         Limbaugh took me to Premier Radio Network and Drudge took me nowhere.
    All the other sites I visit regularly load just fine.
    Can't think of anything else.
    UPDATE: I just spent 20 minutes trying to post my problem in an intelligent and comprehensive manner. But... just now I tried both sites again and they loaded fine. So, if you've read this far, I won't be wasting anyone's time. But I'm just going to leave this here anyway.

    If you are using an Intel Machine, the 3.0 codec is not available - only for the older iMac machines. Have a look at this thread from the Real Player Forum.
    Assuming you are using an Intel machine - To use the 3.0 codec, which is necessary to play the sound files you referenced, you would need to start Safari in Rosetta mode first.
    Back to Real Player and your original question:
    This is from Real Players on-line help data base:
    When you install RealPlayer for Mac OS X, you are prompted to decide which types of files you want to open with it. RealPlayer becomes the default media player for the file types you choose to associate with it.
    If you install another media program after installing RealPlayer, some of these file types may be associated with the new program.
    To reassign these file types to RealPlayer:
    Open RealPlayer for Mac OS X, click the RealPlayer menu, and choose Preferences. The Preferences box opens.
    Select the Media Types category.
    Select the file types you want RealPlayer to play by default, and then click Save Media Types. The changes will take affect after you restart RealPlayer.
    If you are still experiencing problems, Safari may be overriding your choices. To reassign file-types for Safari:
    Find one of the downloaded files in the Finder.
    Hold the control key down and click on the file.
    Select Get Info from the file's menu.
    In the Open With area of the file's Info window, choose RealPlayer as the application.
    Click Change All.
    Follow the above instructions and post back.

  • WILL NOT ALLOW SELECTED SITE TO LOAD UNTIL "ALLOW" IS CLICKED AT TOP RT OF SCREEN. WANT TO ELIMINATE THIS STEP

    when accessing selected sites, firefox will prevent until the "ALLOW" box is selected at top right corner of page. I would like the page selected to load without this required step.

    A transition (in your case a cross dissolve) is limited by the length of the 'handles' that exist at the beginning and end of the clips involved.  For a balanced 1-second cross dissolve, there need to be at least 15 frames at the end of the outgoing (first) clip + 15 frames at the beginning of the incoming (second) clip that are  'handles'.
    Handles are the frames between the start point of a  source media clip  and the IN point you set in that clip; and between the OUT point of the clip and the source media end.
    If your IN point = the media start point of the source clip (ie 00:00:00;00) then there are no handles at the beginning of the clip.  If your OUT point = the media end point of the source  clip, then there are no handles at the end of the clip.
    In the example of a 1-second cross dissolve
    The OUT point of the outgoing (first clip) would need to be at least 15 frames before the end point of the underlying source clip and
    The IN point of the incoming (second clip) would need to be at least 15 frames after the start point of the underlying source  clip.
    Here is an illustration from Piero Fiorani's excellent description of timecode including handles:

  • Safari not loading .css files / hanging page load

    A bit of an odd one this...
    I'm having a few issues a couple of websites in that the page takes an age to load - and when (if) it does, the CSS file hasn't loaded, so the page is unstyled.
    One page is http://www.liverpoolfc.tv - the main page and the advert page before it both have the same issue.
    From the activity report, this is because the browser is not completing the download of the file http://www.liverpoolfc.tv/lfc.css - although this will download fine if I download the file not as a part of the site.
    The (Safari) activity report shows that the page's .css file is stalling, in this case at 8.0KB out of 8.6KB - this is consistent each time I try to load the page.
    The problem occurrs in both Safari (3.2.1) and Firefox (3.0.6) on Mac OS X 10.5.6. It also happens with the current version of WebKit and Camino. The computer is up to date on all other relevant patches, including the recent Security Update, Java Update 3 and Flash.
    I'm experiencing this problem with another website, again with the .css file not loading.
    Similarly, I have two computers (both the same versions of software) and the problem is consistent between them.
    What I've tried so far...
    - resetting Safari
    - deleting the cookies manually
    - using a proxy server
    - starting Safari in Rosetta
    - using a copy of Safari without any user preferences (via the System Admin login)
    None of these have made a difference. However, given that this is a problem across Safari, Firefox etc., I suspect this must be an issue in a shared component.
    Any thoughts?

    1. From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
    2. From the menu bar, select
               ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    and click Delete All. Close the preference pane. Test.
    3. From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    and confirm. Test.

  • Safari Not Loading

    Hello!
    I am a first time poster to these boards. I am seeking help with Safari 4.0.5, which I updated and installed to my iMac on 3/17/10 (using Safe Mode.)
    My iMac is a 2006, Early Version, Intel Core Duo, using OS Tiger, 10.4.11.
    The problem is Safari is not loading (versus crashing or unexpectedly quitting.) The problem appears to have started only in the last couple of weeks, and not immediately after the update installation. The loading process times out (3 minutes) and returns the following:
    You are not connected to the Internet.
    Safari can’t open the page “http://ww2.cox.com/myconnection/arkansas/home.cox” because your computer isn’t connected to the Internet.
    Using Network Diagnostics the results window shows the following ( although the address is the home page address and is correct):
    Cannot find server
    This computer appears to have a working Internet connection, but cannot find "ww2.cox.com".
    You may have typed the address incorrectly.
    The Network Diagnostics/ Network Status shows
    Green Button - Built-In Ethernet
    Green Button - Network Settings
    Green Button - ISP
    Red Button - Internet (failed)
    Red Button - Server (failed)
    (Sorry - I could not get a picture ofit to paste in this message.)
    After reading information on some of the other posted Safari questions I have tried the suggestions that I thought may apply to my Safari problem. So far, here is what I have tried:
    – Permissions: I am someone who routinely verifies and repairs permissions, and have done so in this situation.
    – Reset Safari: I reset Safari at a minimum daily when I shutdown the computer. Typically, if I am doing many web searches, I will reset Safari 7 to 10 times a day. All the reset options are selected so I hope the caches and cookies are being cleaned out.
    – Input Managers/Input Methods: I cannot locate any files or folders labeled as such to remove.
    – .plists: From my user library I have removed and replaced the safari.plist, the lastsession.plist, and the history.plist, one at time and tried to restart Safari to no avail.
    – Home page address: changed to the Apple site, problem still happens.
    – Safe Mode: I have restarted the iMac in safe mode and done all of the above.
    – Flash Player: On 3/29/10 I downloaded and installed Flash Player version 10.0.45.2.
    – Hardware: I checked all the physical connections and everything seems to be in working order.
    By accident, I found a work-around, hopefully temporary, solution. I use the Terminal utility to run the sudo periodic maintenance scripts because the iMac is turned off at night. I also run these scripts when any system problems appear. I find if the sudo periodic daily command is run Safari will then load. Safari may then load just fine for the next few days, or just for one day. Once Safari is loaded there does not seem to be any problems with its performance.
    The periodic maintenance scripts are the only UNIX commands I know, and I don’t understand what files are being affected. I cannot discern a particular website visit or function that will cause the next failure to load.
    Does anyone have suggestions to resolve this problem (besides never shutting the iMac or Safari off..LOL)?
    Thank you,
    Cym

    Dear Carolyn:
    Thank you for your Welcome and quick response. Please do not forsake me now.
    The ISP is "seeing" what the iMac Network Diagnosis is reporting, that the built-in ethernet and modem are working, the network settings are fine, and that the ISP "signal" is reaching my computer. The url "ww2.cox.com" is a correct address and the site is functioning. Also checking the hardware connections found nothing loose. So...the problem is my h/w or s/w (or maybe I did not ask the right questions.)
    (I have tried to paste a copy of the Network Diagnosis window here but cannot figure out how to do that. I did make a file of it using Preview's Grab function, and can copy it but cannot get it pasted from the clipboard into this post.)
    My Safari's home page is set at the "ww2.cox.com" and has been for the last few years, so no new element there. The address is correct. In trying to resolve this 'loading problem' I have experimented and changed the home page to www.apple.com, and www.google.com. The loading still times out and Network Diagnostics still reports, "This computer appears to have a working Internet connection, but cannot find "www.apple.com" (or "www.google.com"). You may have typed the address incorrectly."
    As stated in my original post, once the sudo periodic daily script is run, Safari will load with no problem. Safari can find the ww2.cox.com page, or whatever home page I have set. There are no performance problems until the next time Safari will not load.
    What is really frustrating is the problem occurrence is not consistent. It may happen the first time Safari is being accessed. It sometimes happens after I used Safari for a couple hours, then Quit, and then try to reopen Safari later. It can happen after a Safari reset only. It does not happen everyday. Safari will open and load fine for a few days, then it won't. And this whole situation only started about March 25th.
    It seems like there is some little piece of ??? being corrupted during Safari use, that does not get corrected with permissions repair, or removing the various plists, but gets resolved (albeit temporarily) with the daily maintenance script. I cannot narrow it down.
    So, Carolyn, do you have other advice on this subject?
    Thank you for your time and consideration,
    Cym

  • Safari Not Loading Webpage Menus

    My Safari does not load all webpage menus correctly.  I'm trying to book some flights and KLM and Expedia work fine, but the pop-up calendar for the British Airways website seems stuck on January and Etihad will not give destination options in it's drop down menu.  I have tried these sites on other computers and everything works fine.
    Any thoughts?

    Hi ...
    Check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode.
    Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info.
    In the Get Info panel, If the box next to:  Open in 32 bit mode is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.
    If you haven't emptied the cache or reset Safari lately...
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
    From the menu bar again, click Safari > Reset Safari. Select the top 5 boxes, click Reset.
    Quit then relaunch Safari to test.
    Since you are running Lion installing the Java for OS X Lion Update 1 may help also.
    Restart your Mac after the update is installed. Try Safari.

    I experienced the same issues with Safari not displaying Quicktime video windows. I couldn'e even watch the instructions for Apple programs from the learning center in .MAC.
    Solution: Find your Tiger installation disk and reinstall Tiger OS X. Remember to select "archeive & install and don't wipe out your hard disk. And last but not least, run software update and then go watch a baseball game because this will take awhile.

  • Safari not loading  pages completely or at all

    Safari  7.0,6  has stopped loading some pages.  It  partially loads a page  and then hangs up (spinning beach-ball). Other pages don't load at all. This is a recent occurrence.   It even hung up going to Apple.com.   I am running Mavericks and according to the system I am up to date on mavericks and safari.  I can get to the same sites using Firefox.  I prefer using Safari but this is not working now.

    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 didn'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.
