Some websites hang
I've suddenly noticed that some web sites that I used to access now hang and do not complete. Even the Macworld site isn't completing. I see the surround but not the text in the middle of the page. I checked the Java console and see this message that seems to be consistant with the sites that hang.
Unsafe JavaScript attempt to access frame with URL http://www.macworld.com/weblogs/editors/2007/09/notnewms/index.php?lsrc=mwrss from frame with URL http://ad.adlegend.com/iframe?spacedesc=10873891081408_728x90_1077099_1087389&target=blank&@CPSC@=http://ad.doubleclick.net/click%3Bh=v8/35c7/3/0/%2a/l%3B120592172%3 B0-0%3B0%3B14619887%3B3454-728/90%3B22393468/22411351/1%3B%3B%7Esscs%3D%3f. Domains must match.
Anyone have an idea?

After doing some searching relative to google sites not filling (I had problems with this site also), there was a post suggesting changing the DNS server settings in system preferences/network/TCP/IP to use the following DNS server addresses. 208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
Bottom line I made the change, turned java scripting back on, and all the pages that were partially filling and hanging are now working. I'm not sure what happened to originally cause the problem, but with this patch, things work again.

why does firefox 4 hang in some websites, during browsing on that site ? This never happened with previous editions. edit
DetailsStart Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Fire fox loads some websites and not others. Clearing cache and history doesn't help.
Fire fox loads some websites and not others. Pages that don't load in Firefox do load in other browsers. Clearing cache and history doesn't help.
One of the websites that doesn't load is google.com! It loads some of the page, just some menu items at the top of the page. Then, it hangs and remains in the Loading state (with the spinning wheel and "Loading" in the tab) indefinitely.
The problem started after 3.6.11 was installed. I'm on Mac OS 10.6.4.
I would be happy if you just showed me where I can download 3.6.10. Also, is there anything special I have to do if installing an older version?I ended up going into the clear history settings and setting it to clear history when Firefox closes and chosing it to clear history and cooking and browsing history when Firefox closes. Now the links work fine and the last page I was looking at before I closed Firefox is no longer there when it opens again. Problem solved!

I have lost access to some websites that I regularly visit. The process hangs after the // part of the address. After a while I get this prompt: "Safari can’t open the page “http://www.faylib.org/”. The error was: “lost network connection” (NSURLErrorDomain:-1005) Please choose Report Bug to Apple from the Safari menu, note the error number, and describe what you did before you saw this message."
I've reported this bug twice to Apple and have discussed it with the library that operates the website. It sometimes crops up when I'm in a website going to another page; it loses its place and looses the connection.
I've tried access with the latest Safari, Firefox, and IE without luck. The problem seems to have begun after I installed Security Update 2006-004 on 8/2/06. I've tried turning off pop-ups, coming at the site from a search engine, and other angles. No luck. Any ideas?
iMac 17 Mac OS X (10.4.7) Dial-upSince there appeared to be nothing wrong with my modem otherwise, I chose not to investigate replacing it. But I did solve the problem with substantial help from my local Apple dealer, MegaByte.
They suggested several things, but the one that did the trick was firewall protection. I had been running Norton Personal Firewall which was updated on 7/8 to v. 3.1. When I stopped it and reverted back to the Apple firewall protection, my fave website popped back up. -
I am facing this weird problem in firefox 23(I don't know about previous versions). When the firefox starts, everything is OK but after some time, some websites don't open. I restart firefox and then the same websites load without any problem. Restarting is troublesome as I have internet under a proxy.
Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you. -
Unable to load some websites after an update to IOS6
I am unable to load some websites in both Safari and Google Chrome. This did not bother me until I found at that I cannot access some websites I can access before and frequent. I am unsure if this was caused by the update to ios6, but this incident only happened after the update. I am unsure as well if this is related to the problem of me unable to connect to itunes and app store after the update. I've fixed those by changing my DNS to 8.8.8.8 and changing the time trick. I've also noticed that twitter and some apps crashed a lot. I have no problem connecting to the wifi though. Thank you in advance.
Some additional details I have also noticed. Some images will not show or appears as a blue and white question mark in some websites. Even here in apple website.

I can't connect to the iTunes store from my iMac and have problems loading a number of other websites, however some websites load perfectly well. I have had the iTunes store issue on my iPad and resolved it by changing the DNS but surely I should use the DNS for my router. I don't really want to change it for the iMac as I access secure sites with it to internet shop.
Any ideas, I was going to try loading Chrome but can't get it without going through the iTunes store. Anyway, that is treating the symprom not the cause.Adding Open DNS codes to your Network Preferences, should give good results in terms of speed-up as well as added security, (including anti-phishing and redirects) (Full information about Open DNS is here: http://www.opendns.com/home/nobloat ) and further independent information can be read here:
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57338784-263/free-dnscrypt-tool-enhances-ma c-web-security/?tag=mncol;txt
and here:
http://www.macworld.com/article/1146064/troubleshootdns.html?t=234
Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu, and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' add the following two numbers:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
(You can also enter them if you click on Advanced and then DNS)
Sometimes reversing the order of the DNS numbers can be beneficial in cases where there is a long delay before web pages start to load, and then suddenly load at normal speed:

Some websites no longer reachable. Even the Apple site!
Ik bought the TM to get a wireless connection and to have a backup unit.
Now I can no longer get connected to some websites. No Amazon,Youtube and even Apple! among others.
The message I get tells me that the server can not be found. If I use the network of my neighbour everything works fine! What to do?
Another problem I find is that I can only connect with the internet by Wifi. My cable does not work any longer. Anyone?
Thank you for your input.Blue
It sounds like you restored from an old back-up. Did you back-up just before your software update? It will use your last one and if your last back-up was a ywear old then it will use that one.
In general, if you are getting these messages on your iPhones select logout (when you get that Apple Id request) and then log back in with your newer ID.
Sorry for your losses.

After installing CC, The font on some websites has changed in my browser Google Chrome. Help!
take for example facebook & ebay, the fonts have changed to a distorted block type font, very un-readable, Only after I installed adobe CC, this took place...
I am using google chrome
Can any one help me?
I have tried to fix it by tinkering with some settings in google chrome but had no luck!
here is a screenshot of the problem:Unless a web page uses a “web font” that it supplies itself, web pages typically provide a list of fonts, in priority order, of fonts to be used to render text. Typically, this list of fonts represents “system fonts” of MacOS, Windows, iOS, and Android - fonts that can be counted on being installed. Helvetica Neue is a MacOS system font that is not typically found on Windows systems. And even if a user licenses recent versions of Helvetica Neue OpenType fonts and installs same on Windows systems, they are in the “Helvetica Neue Std” family which would not match “Helvetica Neue” which is native to MacOS. Thus, I suspect that the Helvetica Neue you have installed on Windows is an older font offering.
There are three issues here:
The first is that web pages provide a priority list for font usage. I suspect that the web pages you are seeing Helvetica Neue actually used on your system are requesting fonts in the order of Helvetica Neue and then Arial. The typical MacOS system would display the content with Helvetica Neue and the typical Windows system would display the content with Arial. Since you have Helvetica Neue on your system, you are getting rendering similar to what a MacOS system would have.
The second issue is that there is no way to force a web page to reverse the order of priority of the fonts it lists.
And finally, the third issue is that there is no way to hide a font selectively by application.
The only way you can avoid Helvetica Neue being used on web pages preferring Helvetica Neue to let's say Arial or any other font on its list for particular text rendering is to uninstall Helvetica Neue.
That having been said, other than perhaps personal type design preferences, are there any other issues with regards to use of Helvetica Neue for display of these web pages?

After upgrading to Mavericks, some websites won't load (using wifi)?
Hey guys,
I upgraded my Macbook Pro to Mavericks last December. I had some problems when loading some websites (such as eBay, Society6, etc) while I was at home using my home wifi in Indonesia. It's like, sometimes these websites won't load, but sometimes they do.
I've tried different browsers and it's still the same. I thought, it was just the wifi at my home in Indonesia that's problematic, because at work (using cable), the internet's just fine. But THEN, I am now here in Australia, I don't usually have problems with my aprtment's wifi at all, but now it's doing that thing. Some websites won't load properly or won't load at all. I realized that this is most likely has something to do with my laptop (ie. upgrading to Mavericks. I've never had this problem before), because the wifi works just fine with my smartphone and my iPod.
Has anyone encountered similar problem? How do you fix this?
Thanks so much,
SHello sharlegit
