Slow web browsing on some sites / Gmail not working at all!!

Hi, I re-installed OSX on my Intel Mac Mini this week and ever since i cannot get gmail to open at all and some sites are running very slow (including this one i am on right now). But yet my windows laptop (i am using now as i have not got much patience) works fine and gets gmail no problem. The laptop is connected to the same router as my mac.
I am fully updated with OSX, i use Firefox as my primary browser but have also tested in Safari with the same results. I cannot figure it out at all - anyone have any ideas?
Thanks Gary

Cheers for your help but no joy, put the DNS in as above and nothing changed. I did however try to connect my mac via Airport and that works fine!! weird, so the issue only affects browsing when connected to my cisco router via ethernet! need to do some digging, cheers for replying anyway.
Thanks Murphy

Fox Tabs and Add To Top Sites is not working. All my tabs have disppeared right after upgrading. Help!

I upgraded to 11.0 and clicked to open tabs, which will take me to Fox Tabs, but I was unable to click any open. When I clicked Edit, every thing disappeared. When I clicked Done, the screen stated "Saving..." and it stayed like that for more than 5 minutes. I closed that tab and again clicked Open tabs, this time it was blank. When I right click on any page and chose Add To Top Sites nothing appears on Top Sites. I have made this my Home Page and when I click home, Fox Tabs is still blank.

Hi,
You can try to '''Remove''' and then install FoxTab via '''Tools''' ('''Alt '''+ '''T''') > '''Add-ons''' > '''Extensions'''. You can search for FoxTab on the top right search box and install it or install it from the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/foxtab/?src=search AMO homepage].

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

Some sites are not reachable in FF however they were before.(In other browser they work). Why?

Some sites are not reachable in FF however they were before.(In other browser they work). Why
It is like some sites are blocked but FF says :
"The connection was reset
The connection to server was reset while the page download..."

I upgraded to 6.02 and still get this message from Gmail: "You are using an old version of Firefox which Gmail no longer supports. Some features may not work correctly. Upgrade to new version."

When I opened Gmail in my Firefox browser, I got a message I've never seen, before: "You are using an old version of Firefox which Gmail no longer supports. Some features may not work correctly. Upgrade to new version." I clicked on upgrade to a new version and was taken to the Mozilla site, where I downloaded the latest version of Firefox... then, when I restarted my computer, Gmail still gives me the same message!! What's going on?

Firefox 4 and later require at least OS X 10.5 and a Mac with an Intel processor.

For an unofficial Firefox ESR 10.0.4 compatible version (TenFourFox) that runs on PowerPC Macs with OS X 10.4.11 or OS X 10.5.8 you can look at:

My Sites database status changed to "Database is up to date, but some sites are not completely upgraded."

We have a brand new SharePoint 2013 farm which we just put into production. As users have begun creating their My Sites, the My Sites web application database changed to a status of "Database is up to date, but some sites are not completely upgraded."
Huh?
Prior to deploying to production, we had some test users that had created My Sites, and everything was fine. The database status was "No action required".
Anyone know why the creation of My Sites would cause the database status to flip to this warning?

HI Kleung,This seems to be that after the patch upgradation some of the sites are not upgraded properly.Please check the below thread that exactly talking about the issue that see in your enviornment.
http://expertsharepoint.blogspot.de/2014/03/data-base-is-up-to-date-but-some-sites.html
First of all, to identify what site collection doesn't got upgraded.
         Run: stsadm.exe -o localupgradestatus > upgradestatus.txt
or
PSConfig.exe -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -force -cmd applicationcontent -install -cmd installfeatures (Run from one of the WFE server)
In below as you see, there no site collection that need upgrade. If you have any, you can identify
them by searching by word "Needs upgrade" in this file.
Secondly, run the command in the Power Shell:
For resuming the upgrade, you’ll need the ID for the database :
Get-SPContentDatabase -Identity <your content database name>
When you got the GUID for the database you can then resume the upgrade
         upgrade-spcontentdatabase -id <database
GUID>
Finally, check the upgrade status by running stsadm again:
stsadm.exe -o localupgradestatus > upgradestatus.
Thanks

Using XP Professional SP 3 with latestest version of Firefox, the US Airways web site will not work properly. I can still make it work with MS IE

I am using XP Professional SP 3 with newest version of Firefox, the US Airways web site does not work. I can make the site work with MS Internet Exp. What do I need to change to make Firefox work?

Can you clarify in which way the site isn't working?
Can you attach a screenshot?
*http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screenshot
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/how-do-i-create-screenshot-my-problem
Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot.
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

Reporting Services 2012 - "Database is up to date, but some sites are not completely upgraded"

Running SharePoint 2010 SP1 (Feb-Mar 2012 CU)
Is there any official word from Microsoft regarding the issue with SQL Server Reporting Services 2012 for SharePoint where 2 of the reporting service application databases show "Database is up to date, but some sites are not completely upgraded".
ReportingServiceDB - Database is up to date, but some sites are not completely upgraded
ReportingServiceDB_Alerting - Database is up to date, but some sites are not completely upgraded
I'm building the new Reporting Services into a new DEV environment and I'd like to know what the official word is from Microsoft. Is Reporting Services 2012 ready for production?
Thanks!

Hi mikea730,
Thanks for your psot.
Based on my research, I found a similar thread about this issue at Microsoft Contect site. For more information, please see:
http://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/721067/database-is-up-to-date-but-some-sites-are-not-completely-upgraded
It might be a known issue of SQL Server 2012. I would suggest opening a case with Microsoft Customer Support Services (CSS) (http://support.microsoft.com), so that a dedicated Support Professional can assist you
in a more efficient manner.

If disabling autocomplete=off doesn't help then start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

Even when i have updated version of adobe flash player, some sites do not play video

Hi,
Even when i have updated version of adobe flash player and active x from adobe.com, some sites do not play the video. A request box, install the plug in comes. When i click it, it again tries to install the same version of adobe, which i have already downloaded. it is only for some sites.
May be it is because, it is site problem? How to overcome it

ActiveX is part of the Windows operating system. Plus the ActiveX version of Adobe Flash is for Internet Explorer. Other browsers need their own version of Flash' Firefox needs the Plugin version of Flash.
If you go to the Adobe website to download Flash while using Firefox, Adobe will provide the correct version of Flash automatically. Just make sure you de-select any other programs that Adobe may want to stick you with before you actually download Flash. Then close Firefox and run the Adobe Flash installer.

I recently updated my IOS software on my IPAD with the latest version and now video from some sites does not run. I did not do the update on my other IPAD and the video runs fine. Any idea why.

I have an IPAD 3 and recently updated the IOS software with the latest version and now video from some sites will not display where it did prior to the update. When I go to those same sites on my other IPAD that I did not do the softward update the video still works. Any idea why and what to do to fix it?

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

I am trying to open a service request and the site does not work.

I am trying to open a service request and the site does not work with ANY browser. I get the page https://getsupport.apple.com/GetParts.action which says "Send in for service. We just need a little more information." The continue button does not work. I've seen this problem before trying to file support requests. It's as if Apple simply does not want you to create requests.

I just went through several screens and had no problems. Try clearing your browser's cache and/or history.

Some Widget does not work after latest upgrade

Today is July 23rd, 2011. By recent latest upgrade, mainly for supporting Lion, where I am still using Snow Leopard 10.6.8, some widget does not work, including Battery Meter, Digital Clock Alarm, Victoria Digital Clock, etc.
By the way, my company use Chatter and I installed Chatter Desktop. Again, after recent upgrade, it no longer work anymore.
Do you experience the same problem?
For those who has upgraded to Lion, do you also find some widget does not work?

I have read a couple of complaints like that, but not sure it's widespread.
At this point I think you should get Applejack...
http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15667/applejack
After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
applejack AUTO
Then let it do all 6 of it's things.
At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
The 6 things it does are...
Correct any Disk problems.
Repair Permissions.
Clear out Cache Files.
Repair/check several plist files.
Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
Trash old Log files.
First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files! :-)
Disconnect the USB cable from any Uninterruptible Power Supply so the system doesn't shut down in the middle of the process.
If that does NOT help, Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, test if things work OK in Safe Mode.
Then move these files to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.recentitems.plist
Reboot & test.
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.
If that does NOT help then I suspect the optical drive or media itself, or possibly just needs a cleaning CD run on it.
