Safari suddenly no longer accessing some websites

I am on OS 10.4.9 using Safari 2.0.4. I'm aware both are outdated, but for various reasons I have chosen not to upgrade because I haven't really had any need to. But some weirdness has happened regarding my Safari and this is perhaps more a curiosity question than anything else (in part because everyone I talk to offline is suggesting I switch to Firefox or Opera anyway).
My Safari has developed a case of "Sudden Website Dropsy" or SWD. That is when a website that worked perfectly well a couple of days before no longer works properly, or at all, a few days later.
There are 3 examples I can cite:
1. CNN.com. The site still works, but the formatting is messed up, and videos often cause Safari to close.
2. TVshowsondvd.com . I was able to access this site up until Tuesday. Then it gave me a 404 error thereafter. I thought the site was dead or offline until I discovered I could still access it using an old version of Netscape. I contacted the webmaster and he said he'd changed nothing and has no idea why Safari overnight would forget the site existed.
3. Attempts to access any of the Wikia websites results in an instant quit by Safari. Again, this was an overnight development. The main Wikipedia site, however, still works fine. Again, I'm able to access the Wikia sites using my old, unsupported, outdated Netscape browser, which seems to suggest Wikia didn't upgrade beyond Safari 2's capabilities.
I know we're always supposed to upgrade our programs and systems and the reason for me not doing so is a mixture of paranoia (the last major upgrade I did cost me my ability to access to some major work-required software so I'm willing to sacrifice some bells and whistles to be able to keep my job running smoothly), but I don't feel this is one of those cases where I'm trying to make my old Safari do something it isn't capable of. These are websites that worked fine days or, at most, weeks ago, so there shouldn't be an access issue. The sudden 404 on that one site is perhaps the most puzzling.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Alex

Web sites change over time, using new coding, new technologies, etc. You're using an older version of Safari, and it has issues that can easily cause you to be unable to access certain web sites or cause Safari to crash. That is why you need to upgrade to 10.4.11 and the latest version of Safari. No tonly does it fix numerous bugs, but also closes a variety of security vulnerabilities.
You gain nothing by not doing it, and you risk everything. Your paranoia can be solved if you simply get a backup plan in order for your Mac and follow it. One of these days something bad will happen, at the worst possible time. I've yet to see or hear of anyone who lost their data by upgrading to 10.4.11, so now is the time to do it.

Suddenly I cannot access one website

All of a sudden I cannot access one website at www.countrywalkers.com from any of the three Macs on my network. Two of them are wireless and one is ethernet-cabled
I work for them so it would be helpful if I could do so. I e-mailed them and they have confirmed that other Mac users can access their website without any problem and that they have certainly not blocked me from accessing their website.
The connection to this website fails using Safari, Firefox and Netscape and Firefox and IE via VPC on my g5 iMac, Safari and Firefox on a G4 Powerbook and a G4 Tower.
I connect to the internet via a 3Com router which works perfectly except for this glitch.
I have changed nothing in my set-up and have been able to access this website uninterruptedly for about 10 years, until about two weeks ago.
I have used ping, lookup and traceroute in Network Utility to try and work out what is wrong. In the ping test, all the packets go missing. The lookup gives information which means nothing to me. The traceroute test shows asterisks at stages 2, 5 and 13 onwards, meaning I suppose that this is where the connection to the remote URL is faiiling.
What does this all mean and what can I do about it?
There seem to be a lot of posts on this issue, almost all of them unresolved, and hope that I have posted in the right place.
I do not have anything like PeerGuardian.
Thanks for any help.

Can't access some websites using time capsule

Everything has been working just fine with my time capsule and my imac and just today I couldn't access some websites for some reason. I tried many other sites including this one and can get to them no problem. I have been through all of the airport settings and trouble shooting and can't find any problems, also the other 2 computers and my blackberry can't access some of the same sites either, I am stumped. Does anyone out there have any idea whats going on? Thanks for your help!

Welcome to the discussions!
Suggest that you contact your ISP. It sounds like their DNS server is overloaded at the moment, but also unlikely that they will ever admit it.
It wouldn't hurt to power cycle your complete network as well. Just power everything down, order is not important.
Start the modem first and let it run a few minutes by itself.
Then start the next device connected to the modem, probably your Time Capsule, and let it run a few minutes.
Then start your computers and devices one by one the same way.

Can no longer access a website - why?

As of yesterday, I can no longer access the local school district's website. Says it cannot connect with the website. I've called around and everyone else seems able to connect, so the site is not down. We've got FIOS - have had it for a long, long time - and none of our equipment or situations have changed. No computer in this house - not our PCs or the Macs - can log onto the site. Help!

that's slightly different than the original poster's issue. you're issue has to deal with secure websites.
You may want to follow the instructions here.
If you get the "page cannot be displayed" then I'm afraid you can't access SSL sites.
An example of this picture can be found here!
Here are the steps that you should try to fix your "secure sites problem".
Verify that Internet Explorer Is Using 128-Bit Encryption:
In Internet Explorer, on the Help menu, click About Internet Explorer
The level of encryption on your computer appears next to the words Cipher Strength.
Verify that the Cipher Strength value appears as 128-bit
If the Cipher Strength is anything less then 128-bit, download the "Explorer Internet High Encryption Pack" to your computer's hard disk, and then install it.
Delete Temporary Internet Files
There's also a possibility of some corrupted files in your Temporary Internet Files (TIF) storage. You should clear these
In Internet Explorer, on the Tools menu, click Internet Options, and select the General tab
Under Temporary Internet files, click Delete Files, and click OK when you are prompted to confirm the deletion
Configure Security settings for the Trusted sites zone in Internet Explorer:
In Internet Explorer, on the Tools menu, click Internet Options, and select the Security tab
Select Trusted sites, and then click Default Level
Add the secure Web site you are trying to access to the Trusted sites zone. To do so, click Sites, type the address (URL) of the site in the Add this Web site to the zone box
Click Add, click OK, and then click Apply
Clear the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) slate and AutoComplete history:
In Internet Explorer, on the Tools menu, click Internet Options, and select the Content tab
Under Certificates, click Clear SSL State
Click OK when you receive the message that the SSL cache was successfully cleared
Under Personal information, click AutoComplete
Under Clear AutoComplete history, click Clear Forms. Click OK when you are prompted to confirm the operation.
Verify that Internet Explorer is configured to use SSL 2.0 and SSL 3.0
In Internet Explorer, click on the Tools menu, click Internet Options, and select the Advanced tab
In the Settings box, under the Security header, click to select the Use SSL 2.0 and Use SSL 3.0 check boxes (if they are not already selected), and then click OK
Verify that the Date and Time Settings on Your Computer Are Correct:
Because SSL certificates have an expiration date, if the date on your computer isn't correct, it may prevent you from connecting to secure sites.
To verify that your computer is configured with the correct date and time settings
Click Start > click Control Panel
Click Date, Time, Language, and Regional Options, and then click Date and Time
Select the Date & Time tab
Check to make sure that the date and time settings are configured to use the current date and time, and then click OK
Check the file integrity of the IE and Outlook:
Click Start>Run> "sfc /scannow" (without quotes) It might ask for the Windows CD to upload the corrupted files
Click Start>Run> regsvr32 softpub.dll (without quotes) and wait for the OK message; then try again.
Here are some Microsoft Knowledge Base articles dealing with this problem that you may like to look at if you aren't able to solve the problem. Just Google the error number and you should find some additional info on it!
261328 - Cipher Strength Appears as 0-Bit in Internet Explorer
301803- Error Message When You Try to Connect to Secure Site: Client Certificate Has Expired or Is Not Yet Valid
303807- "The Page Cannot Be Displayed" Error Message When You Try to View Web Page on a Secure Web Site
305217- Page Cannot Be Displayed Error During SSL 3.0 Server Session Timeout
811383- Internet Explorer Connectivity and Certificate Display Issues
813951- You Cannot Access Your MSN E-mail Account or Authenticate with a Web Site in Various Programs
821814- You Receive a "Page Cannot Be Displayed" Error Message When You Post to a Site That Requires Authentication
Hope this helps,

Can't access some websites and speed problem

Hi guys,
I hope to find some help here please as I am desperate!
It has been a week now that I am having problems with my broadband, suddenly I can't access some italian's websites (which I was able to access before). The browser tries to load up the page but nothing happens (it doesn't even give me an error). I tried those website on both my laptops (one windows and one mac) and on 3 different browsers but I have the same problem.
I even tried to use Google DNS on my mac but that didn't solve the problem, I have already tried to reset my BT home hub but again that didn't help.
Any ideas?
The other thing is that my broadband speed is really strange, because before it used to be very fast during the day (500-600 kb/s download) and really slow during peak-hours (which I know is normal). But for the past month it has been really slow (70kb/s download) even during the day, it has some brief moments when it's slightly faster but not as fast as before. Any suggestions on what would be the problem or what I can try?
I will really appreciate your help.
Thank you all
Robbie

Not able to access some websites

I have not been able to access a few websites on my Macbook. I initially thought that it was my wireless router (D-Link DIR 655) and connected my Macbook to the cable modem but still I couldn't access the website. So I figured it must be my ISP. But then my roommate who has a Gateway notebook with
Win XP was able to get onto that website. So it surely is not my ISP or my router. I am at a loss here and would really appreciate if someone could help me with this niggling problem. Thanks in advance.

Some websites just don't work properly with Safari. I can always access the website's home page, but some links don't work. Sometimes a different browser fixes the problem (I use Camino), but sometimes the only answer is to re-boot in XP.
I've always had intermittent problems with eBay - random "page not found" errors. My company car leasing site works until I try and sign in. My credit card supplier's site won't allow me to print a statement.
Seems to be sloppy programming by the site designers. They don't care that they are alienating a small percentage of potential customers.

Can't access some websites. Possibly DNS problem.

This problem only started to occur a couple of days ago. I found that I can't access certain websites,but all the other computers in exactly the same network environment have no problem accessing them. I tried changing my DNS server settings from the servers my ISP provided to the Google DNSs, 8.8.8.8 and 4.4.4.4, and those websites I couldn't access before became accessible immediately, but some other websites, which I was able to access with the DNS provided by my ISP before, became inaccessible again. I tried using another set of DNS addresses, the same thing happened: some websites that I couldn't access before became accessible, but some others become inaccessible again. All these DNS servers that I used work perfectly on other computers in my network, so it has to be the problem of my computer. This has nothing to do with the browser, as all of the browers in my system have the same problem, even including the Internet Explorer in my VMware Windows virtual machine. I tried flushing the DNS cache with dscacheutil -flushcache, and it didn't work.
I'm using Lion 10.7.3 on MacBook Pro MC371. Please help!

Please give an example of a site you can't access now.

Safari display becomes grey in some website as unfinished loading

The display becomes like this in some website
How to solve this problem ?
Thank you.

Try troubleshooting extensions and third party plugins.
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 it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
Back to Safari > Preferences. This time 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.

Safari update does not access some web sites

I just did the latest Mac update, the Safari, Quicktime,Itunes update. And now Safari does not allow me to access my own Flash based web site. It says it's loaded 3 of 4 and then just stops, no error message, nothing, just a blank page.
And worse I am not the only person having this problem, several other people on Macs, in different parts of the country,and using Safari also can not access my site. However Firefox has no problem on my computer or theirs. Worse still, I am traveling and will be away for several weeks more and it's the holidays which is a key time for my website as it is an important sales tool for my business. There haven't been any changes to the website itself for over a year. I guess I just won't be expecting any business from Mac users this Christmas........
Also other websites seem to have loading issues as well.
I used to look forward to Apple updates as they USED to improve the performance of my computer, however the last two updates caused severe problems to a computer that had been working perfectly.

Hello,
I'm afraid that site doesn't work either for me with Safari 3.0.4 on OS X 10.4.11.
The page appears to load but only displays a blank page.
The W3C (web standards consortium) validation tool shows a few errors with the site: [validation results|http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=www.kosoff.com&charset=%28detect+auto matically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0]

Cannot access some websites

Hello!
I have the strangest thing happening - I cannot access some of my web sites directly via Safari (or Firefox for that matter), whereas the whole world can.
Also when I try to connect via proxify, I can access it fine.
www.network-tool.com tells me the site is online fine.
Why can I not access it?
It's driving me nuts.
Thanks for any ideas to solve this problem.
Note: brand new Mac, clear caches, etc.
One thing I need to add is that the worst part of this is that I don't get emails either from that domain. Only once every 1-2 days do I get all emails at once.

Thanks for letting us know what the problem was, Pufichek.
I'm sure it will encourage others to check that, as well.

Can't access some websites - URL is hijacked by "unotelly" - ??

This has a virus-like feel to it... I can't access certain websites,. When I do, I'm bumped to a site for Untotelly.
I type: www.bbc.co.uk
And I go to: http://quickstart3.unotelly.com/?origin=http://www.bbc.co.uk/
At the top of that page I'm asked to "please update your IP address" (among other things) .. which I'm reluctant to do.
The question is: how do I stop this from happening?

I'd think that the DNS settings on your computer or router have been changed to unotelly's ones.

I can't access some websites, log in on some websites or have some websites remember my username and password.

Before I asked this question, I went through all the questions and answers and guides that were about problems similar to these but they never worked.
For some websites, it's as simple as not being able to log in. I will enter my account details but it will take me back to the log in page.
Some websites say that they can't 'redirect properly'.
I've looked up the solutions to these problems, but they didn't work. I think I'm experiencing another problem because one of the solutions that I think might work isn't being completed properly. When I try to do the 'use custom settings for history' fix, Firefox never remembers my settings.
The only add-on I have is AdBlock Plus.
