Strange internet problem on Imac 24" 10.6.3

Right so I've tried to search this and found nothing so sorry if this has been answered but I seem to be having an insane problem.
Basically almost any web page won't load at all, every so often one will work after about 5mins of loading. Ones that do work are facebook and google....
I typically use firefox (3.5.11) but have tried using various other browsers (tried chrome & safari) with no luck.
I don't know why, but they are still very slow. What is also very strange is that sometimes upon loading a page i'll get the typical message "problem loading page - server cannot be found" then if i hit refresh, it will just quickly show the exact same page again, with no actual attempt to reload it. I am not using any P2P software or anything else to hog bandwidth, i simply only have the browser open it does not seem to work.
Normally I'd would put this down to a network problem but I am using the same network with my macbook, and dozens have friends have tested it with their laptops with no problems.
Thanks for any replies in advance

Hey, I took my took my Imac into the apple shop and got it all sorted,
Basically i had manually entered some DNS servers that were basically obstructing me from accessing any webpages.
To fix it they basicaly clicked the wifi symbol in the top right of the screen,
clicked open network preferences,
clicked the DNS tab, in there left pane there were 2 D.N.S servers (just 2 rows of numbers and points basically) both in BLACK,
then click the - button while they were highlighted to delete them, and the default came up in GREY.
Since then everythings worked perfectly, I hope this helps you sylvia

  • Very Strange Internet Problems

    I own a MacBook Pro 15.4 Inch that I purchased about a year and a half ago. I recently upgraded to Leopard and have all the latest updates. I am from the US, and when I am home my internet works fine. However, I am on travel to Seoul, South Korea right now and am having a very strange internet problem.
    As far as I can tell, the URLs that I type in to my browser are, sparodially, not translated correctly into the webpages that they are supposed to represent. This problem is probably effective 75% of the time, and the rest of the time my internet works roughly correctly. For instance, when I enter http://www.google.com, instead of being taken to the Google homepage, I am taking to the homepage of Jammin Beats DJ Service, an obscure website about a company in northern Pennsylvania. The actual URL of this website is http://www.jamminbeats.com, but when my internet is malfunctioning, 'jamminbeats' is for all intensive purposes replaced by 'google' (that is, it applies not only to the main page, but to sub pages, so "http://www.google.com/weddings" takes you to "http://www.jamminbeats.com/weddings" and etc). For most other webpages, one of two things happens. Either I am taken to the correct page but it is displayed without any images or frames (just the html text and links), or I am taken to a blank page with the header "Under Construction", which I assume is the default for a page that doesn't exist. This is why it seems as though the URLs are simply being interpretted erroneously.
    This problem occurs when connecting both to the wireless and the wired internet at my hotel, and it occurs on both Safari and Firefox, so it is not a connection-specific or browser-specific problem. It may be a problem with the hotel's internet, and as of yet I have not had a chance to test the computer at another location. However, a colleague using an IBM computer has had no problems, and I am currently on a Samsung machine in the business center of the hotel and it is working correctly as well. I have searched extensively online for a similar problem but have come up empty handed, and more than anything, I am confused about what might be causing this problem. The strangest thing is that a fraction of the time, the internet functions normally, but it is usually roughly 15 minutes out of every hour, and eventually I am inevitably taken back to Jammin Beats.
    I am a computer science graduate but I still have no idea what would cause this problem. At first I thought it might be a hacker, but if it is, he or she has been at it consistently for 3 days now, and only seems to be targeting my computer. Any ideas or solutions would be greatly appreciated, as I have been forced to resort to the hotel's business center for checking email, doing work, etc. Thanks in advance.

    I did consider that, as I was in Beijing last week and there are a number of censored sites. However, in Korea I have had problems with very basic sites like facebook, wall street journal, google, yahoo, Korean google, my hotel's webpage, etc. Further, I have successfully gotten all of these sites to load seemingly at random, and can access them without problems on other computers. The only disconnect seems to be between my MBP and the internet, not between Korean internet and the web. I have toyed around with the network settings, and although sometimes after switching from "Automatic" to a fixed connection I get some sites to work, it usually only lasts a short time and eventually the same sites stop working. I reset my cache regularly to make sure I'm not getting sent to cached sites, but this also doesn't help. Further, my Apple Mail, Skype and AIM accounts jump between being connected and disconnected randomly as well. Again, this is isolated to my own computer, which is why I'm so confused.

  • Help! Strange Internet problems!?

    We just got weird internet problems! Very annoying! I'm writing from iPhone now!
    Facts:
    -Starting today, both our Macs started having problems accessing only SOME parts of Internet ?! E.g: Can access google, but NOT gmail.com from Safari. Can access both from Firefox. Can't access this forum from any browser?!
    -Mail downloads/sends some accounts but not others
    -Tried restarting Macs & modem & router
    - called Time Warner
    - no recent changes to macs
    Any ideas!?

    More weird results.
    It turns out CAN access this forum from Safari browser, but it takes a VERY long time to load.
    I tried our iPad.  I can access this forum fine and it loads right away using same WiFi as laptops?!
    I still can't access gmail.com from Macs or iPad, but can access it just fine from iPhone (via AT&T, not home network.)  Errors:  Opera says "Session closed by remote server".  Safari on iPad says " server stopped responding".  Safari on Macs says "can't open ... because server isn't responding"
    MOST urls load fine and super fast.  Only a few don't load at all (e.g: gmail.com) via home network.  Others load fine on iPad on home network but VERY slow on Macs (e.g. this forum)?!   Everything seems to work fine from iPhone using AT&T network.
    I'm really confused?!

  • Very strange ethernet problem with iMac G5

    Thanks in advance for your help.
    I am helping my boss dust the cobwebs out of our network infrastructure (I work for a relatively small company in Michigan). In doing so, I unplugged all the ethernet cables out of our Linksys 24-port 10/100 switch and blew the dust out of the unit using canned air. I did not spray any of the propellant from the canned air and get anything wet.
    Once I finished cleaning the unit, I powered it up and began plugging cables back in. I decided to try to group all the workstation cables into the first few ports. There are only 7 workstations. The switch indicated that all 7 were connected at full duplex and activity LED was blinking on all 7. I plugged our file server, AirPort and uplink to internet into the last 3 ports, and all the unused cables into the remaining ports. All 24 ports have cables plugged in, but as I said there are only 7 workstations plus the 3 other devices I mentioned. The remaining dozen or so cables lead to unused wall jacks. All ports on the switch were filled before and after the cleaning.
    Here's the problem. One of our workstations, an iMac G5, suddenly was not able to connect to the internet. I checked in the network settings to make sure IPv4 was configured correctly. This particular machine has a manually assigned IP of 192.168.1.16/255.255.255.0. Router and DNS are also manually set. It has to be manually assigned - a public IP forwards to it via NAT in our DSL modem/router.
    I decided to termporarily change this to DHCP. Our DCHP server is on another machine running OS X Server 10.4.11. The DHCP server is configured to assign IPs from 192.168.1.101-200. However, when I set the iMac in question to get its IP adderess through DHCP, it is assigned an IP of 169.254.179.148 (or something close to that). Confused, I checked the DHCP log on the server and found no entry for the problematic iMac requesting an IP.
    I then turned off TCP/IP for the ethernet port, set TCP/IP to DHCP for the AirPort, and renewed. I got IP of 192.168.1.107. So it works properly with AirPort. Disabled TCP/IP for AirPort, FireWire, Bluetooth, enabled using DHCP for ethernet, and renewed. Got 169.x.x.x again.
    Also tried switching ports on 24-port switch (tried 4 different ports), running a 50' CAT5 cable to another ethernet port in same room. Moving machine into the room where the switch is located seems pointless as I've tried multiple ports and cables already. None of my attempts has fixed this problem.
    Please help!

    So it works with AirPort but not over Ethernet?
    Have you tried creating a new location in System Preferences Network pane, and setting Ethernet up from the default settings?
    Make sure the iMac G5 is not set up to do +Internet Sharing+ (using the Ethernet port); look in System Preferences Sharing pane, and turn OFF +Internet Sharing+ if it is currently ON.
    Is one of the other workstations a Mac? If so, you could use it to test the iMac G5's Ethernet port, by connecting it directly and using +File Sharing+ (I suppose you could do that even with a Windows PC).

  • Strange Boot problem with iMac OSX 10.7.5 (Boot loop, not working safe boot etc.)

    Hey guys,
    I've got a strange problem with my iMac Late 2009. This morning it didn't want to boot (grey screen with turning wheel). Yesterday when I shut it down everything was fine. Last backup was finished three minutes before. So I was a bit shirty but noch scared of any data loss.
    I tried  the following things:
    1. boot recovery and check hdd (it's a new one, only second day back from apple store for replacing seagate hdd), everythings fine
    2. try to boot in safe mode, did not work!
    3. try to boot in verbose mode, did work until it stopped. Screenshot of the last lines of log is within this post
    4. I used my TM backup and afterwards I could boot! Strange, because as I sad the backup finished a few minutes beforce I left my mac and shut it down
    Now I'm a bit scared of shutting it down again But what would be the next step to find the error? My first thought were some third party kernel extensions, but that would not affect a safe mode boot, am I right? I have a Macbook Air here which is setup nearly identical to my mac and it's working. Could it be a hardware fault? Maybe you've got an idea.
    Thanks!
    Max

    at the moment it seems to be a corrupted time machine backup from my old hard drive (new one has a runtime of 27 hours). So I'll will try a clean install of my system at least, when I got the time. sh%&$ !

  • Strange Internet Problems

    Time Capsule 2TB set up as "Bridging Only."  In this configuration, I can ping Internet addresses and UNC names, but Safari cannot connect to any web pages.  I cannot connect to the App Store nor connect other applications that require Internet access.
    If I change the mode to "DHCP with NAT," everything works fine.  Except the Time Capsule complains that there is "double NAT."
    This problem occurs on a MacBook Pro and two iPads.  In each case, the laptop or tablet shows a good connection to the Time Capsule and can ping by address or UN name, but other apps report that they cannot connect to the server.
    Any ideas how to fix this issue?  Thanks.

    Thanks for your reply.  The screen shots you requested are below.  I did reboot the devices (but not the Time Capsule) in between config changes.
    The network setup is a Charter cable modem into a Cisco PIX router/firewall with no outbound restrictions.  The PIX LAN address is 172.28.1.1.  I have a Microsoft SBS Server at 172.28.1.2 that is providing DHCP addresses on the 172.28.1.0/24 subnet.
    If I assign a static IP address to the MacBook, it behaves the same way:  I can ping IP addresses and UNC names, but Safari and App Store cannot connect.  BTW, for whatever reason, if I set the Mac's DNS to 8.8.8.8, nothing is reachable.  I have to set it back to the SBS server's address to get any connectivity at all.
    I mentioned earlier that two iPads do the same thing.  They are connected to the wireless network and show up as Time Capsule clients, and I can ping from an app on the iPad.  But no Safari or App Store connectivity.

  • Very strange internet problem...

    So, I just did the update last night, and I think after that my internet stopped working...It was late, so I just went to sleep.
    This morning, I wake up and open Firefox...Internet not working...Even though I know it won't work, I open my remote desktop connection and try to log on to my work computer using the wi-fi in my apartment...Well, for some reason that worked.
    I am typing this message right now through a remote connection, but using the same wi-fi that firefox and safari tell me that is no internet connections when I try to open it up from my computer.
    To make it even weirder, I opened quicken on my computer here and tried to download transactions, and not only did it download them, but it took me to the actual bank site and I could navigate all over it...But when i tried to go to a different website, it did the exact same thing and stalled out again.
    How can I use this internet connection to log on remotely and use the internet remotely, but on local programs, it tells me I have no internet connection?
    My modem and router are clearly fine since I can access the internet under certain circumstances. Any thoughts?

    Your problem sounds similar to one that I am having as well, after downloading the update for Mac OS X 10.5.8. After I downloaded the update and restarted, my MacBook Pro could not find an internet connection. I was sitting in my living room and even trying to find my network again, my computer failed to connect. I went into the dining room where my Airport station is, unplugged the Airport and restarted the MacBook. I was able to get back on the internet and everything worked fine. However, once I went back in the living room (which is only another 20 feet or so) I no longer had internet connection. This continues to happen today. I am fine if I work in the dining room, about 5 feet from the Airport station, but as soon as I go in the living room, I lose connection. I checked my iPod touch and was able to connect to the network even farther, which leads me to believe it isn't my cable modem connection.
    All of this happened after downloading OS X 10.5.8. I even tried going to the Apple site and redownloading and installing 10.5.8, but that didn't solve it. Anyone have any solutions, or know anything else regarding this problem?

  • Hello, my sister her macbook pro cannot connect to our wireless internet. My imac however can, so the problem has to do with her laptop. We were wondering how we could solve this problem? Thank you very much in advance!

    Hello, my sister her macbook pro cannot connect to our wireless internet. My imac however can, so the problem has to do with her laptop. We were wondering how we could solve this problem? Thank you very much in advance!

    We did that, but it just doesn't seem to be able to connect. So basically we tried to connect to our network and insert the password, but afterwards it does nothing. Weird thing is also that the network symbol (top right of the screen) says that it has been connected, but when I go look at the system preferences --> network, it states that it has not been connected

  • HT2020 if you have internet sharing on imac with Mountain Lion its stil problem with sleep mode ! why ???

    if you have internet sharing on imac with Mountain Lion its stil problem with sleep mode ! why ???

    Log a bug with Apple, with whatever details you can provide.  In the interrim, consider acquiring a router; either a repurposed x86 box running open-source networking or gateway software, or a commercial device.

  • Slow internet problem on my iMac solved by installing Google Chrome browser

    Slow internet problem on my iMac solved by installing Google Chrome. My daughter came with her macbook pro loaded with OSX 10.6.8 but running Chrome and she could open all my problem websites instantly. So fault was in Safari. Thanks for all your help.  My original post has disappeared

    Original post is at:
    All of my pre 2012 macs extremely slow to load web pages but my son's 2014 mac and my iphone and ipad 2 load same sites instantly

  • Internet Problem - One site will load, another won't. Then mintues later, the site that previously would load won't and the one that wouldn't will. I'm also pulling up a lot of pages in all text. Pics won't load or only one will load and the rest won't...

    Several weeks ago, I began to have some very strange internet connection issues. All the lights on my modem stay on and my computer shows full wi-fi signal, but I suddenly I won't be able to load any pages. Other times, I'll be able to load pages from one site, but not another. It's not the same sites all the time though.... sometimes I'll be able to load pages from one site and not another, and then 5 minutes later it'll switch and I'll be able to load pages from the site I previously couldn't and I won't be able to load pages from the site I previously could. A lot of pages are coming up just text with no pics... and then 5 mintues later that site will load normally and another site will come up just text. It does the same thing whether I'm connecting wirelessly or via an ethernet cable. It also doesn't matter which browser I use (I've tried Safari, Chrome, and Firefox). Although, once in a while when using chrome, I get a DNS error page instead of the usual 'cannot find server'. I contacted my service provider and I'm not losing speed or dropping packets. According to them, the problem I'm having is very strange since diagnostic tests show no problems at all. Perhaps someone has run into this before and has a suggestion?

    Then if you have tried all the browsers try connecting the system to yoour router with an Ethernet cable and turn WiFi off. If you have the same problem then it more then likely after your computer, Router or modem or connection from your ISP.
    If you get good browsing with the Ethernet cable then it is either the WiFi card in your Mac or the WiFi system in your router.

  • Strange wifi problem on a brand-new MacBook Pro

    Hey there, I'm new here. Desperation has got the better of me, and I hope I can get some advice.
    So, last sunday I bought a brand new 13" MacBookPro with 2.8g i7 processor and 10.7.2 OS (I can't update to 10.7.4 because System Update tells me the download has been tampered with or corrupted after I waited 2 hours for it to finish, but I'm trying a direct download from the website). Here's the exact product: http://www.amazon.com/Apple-MacBook-MD314LL-13-3-Inch-VERSION/dp/B005CWIZ4O/ref= sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1340301247&sr=8-5&keywords=macbook+pro+13
    Everything is all perfect except for a strange wifi problem. Note that the wifi does not turn-on or off, it doesn't disconnect after 'sleep', it doesn't get less speed, it doesn't constantly leave a preferred connection (once I chose my home wifi it always connects to it no problem). The wifi bar is always full. What is wrong is that the internet is kinda 'glitchy'. The best metaphor I can think of is that it's like a car that has to be pushed down the road before the engine can start. Please, bear with me because this is kinda hard to explain and I'm not good at tech lingos.
    One of the symptoms is browsing can get really slow and inconsistent, almost as if the wifi gets turned off in the middle of browsing. For example: if I look something up on Google and then open 5 new tabs, probably only 2 or 3 of those tabs will eventually load while the other two will not get past the long 'http:.......google.....etc etc' address and will eventually show one of those 'error loading page because there's no Internet connection' notice. This happens a lot. Sometimes I have to refresh/retry loading a page a couple of times before it finally loads, then usually everything will get back to normal and I will be able to open multiple tabs with no problem, but in a couple of minutes I would try to open another site and the problem will start again.
    So I tried to see how it does with downloading using iGetter. Fortunately I also have a Macbook (white-plastic casing one) and my brother has an old 2006 MacbookPro so I can compare. With those two older Apples iGetter starts receiving data in less than 8 seconds after I click Start, while my brand-new Macbook Pro can take up to 15-20 seconds, sometimes it doesn't even start at all and I have to re-click the start button. But once the download actually starts (on my new MacBook Pro), it downloads like normal, it doesn't stop and the speed is also as good as I can get. Strange huh? Hence, like a car that has to be pushed before the engine starts.
    I also tried 'speed testing' from a website with all 3 laptops. On my old MacBook and my brother's MacBook pro, once I click 'begin test' it takes only a couple of seconds of 'ping' before the download/upload speed measurements start, but with my new MacBook Pro (just like with iGetter) it takes up to almost a minute before the measurements start, sometimes it won't start at all and I have to re-start the test.
    Well, thanks for reading. And hope you can help me shed some light into this. Because it is really preventing me from really enjoying my new MacBook Pro. And if this is most likely a hardware problem, I'd better get back to the store and try to get it replace or something while it's only been 5 days. *cheers*

    Hey guys.. Thanks for the replies. Unfortunately, I bought the MacBook in Indonesia where there are no such thing as an AppleCare. The only option is to leave the Apple product to one of the 'Authorized Apple care centre' and have whoever do whatever to it without guarantee of success. As for returning it and getting a brand new one, I also don't know if there is such a deal here, but that's actually a good idea, will try to go to the store tomorrow. Although, I'm worried that the problem might be with OSX Lion or something and getting a new one won't help.
    mark75090, I've tried resetting the router when I first noticed te problem, didn't work though. I've checked my new MacBook's wi-fi (option+click wifi bar) and it says 'PHY Mode: 802.11g', so does my MacBook and the old MacBook Pro. I don't know what those mean though, and I don't know whether or not my router is an N., can you tell me more please.. I have tried with the other two turned off, and only the new MacBook using the wi-fi but the problem persists. I have also tried connecting directly to the router, but as I described, the problem is too subtle for me to notice the difference.
    Also, if I create a brand new Wi-Fi connection in network preferences and connect to my router through the new Wi-Fi profile, the problem seems to be gone for an hour or so, then it always comes back though. I have also just finally installed 10.7.4, but it doesn't help either.

    In addition to having old hardware, we have Verizon FIOS providing internet and TV access.  Is there any way to make this work for us?  We would like to stream video (Netflix) and view shows from the Web.  Do we need Apple TV to do this?  Or is it not possible with our old iMac?  My husband thinks that our Airport could be a factor. 
    Thank you

    Lately, I have been seeing a lot of posts with users trying to use their Macs/iMacs to mirror their streaming video from their Macs to an HDTV.
    There are, actually, many alternatives to choose from than just from a Mac.
    You need to have or invest in a WiFi capable router for all of these examples.
    Apple TV only integrates with WiFi and newer Mac hardware. So, if you want to have total integrated experience, if you have a 2011 Mac or newer, you might as well pay the $100 for the AppleTV box.
    If you have a older Mac, like I have noticed many users do, then you have other options.
    If you want to elimate long cable clutter and having your Mac at the mercy of your TV all of the time,  you can still use the AppleTV box independently or purchase cheaper alternative media streaming boxes from Roku, Sony, Boxee or any number of electronics manufacturers that now have media streaming boxes and media streaming capability built into DVD/Blu-ray players.
    These eliminate long cable clutter by being close to the HDTV where shorter, less expensive cables can be used.
    Another alternative for iPad users is to use an iPad with the USB/HDMI video adapter and use your iPad as the streaming box. This ties up your iPad in much the same way as it does with your Mac, but again the iPad can be close to the TV and use minimal cables to the TV.
    Another alternative to is to use a combination of an iPad and your Mac to stream content that is only available to stream online from a computer. In this case, you can use a desktop remote app on your iPad and Mac. A good and cheap Desktop Remote app is Splashtop Remote. This allows you to completely connect your iPad remotely, over Wifi, to your iMac desktop. The app streams both video and sound to the iPad which is still connected to your HDTV. The resultant stream video picture will be smaller than the size of your HDTV, but it will still be plenty large enough to watch. Again, if you own a iPad and an Intel Mac, this method also allows minimal cabling to the TV.

  • Another airport connecting to internet problem! Please help!

    Hi, I'm having a problem connecting to the internet on my iMac G5 running OS 10.5.8.
    It initially started happening on and off after I upgraded from 10.4, now it happens all the time.
    Airport connects to the network (full 5 bars and I can see the other machines on the network), but can't connect to the internet. When I run Network Diagnostics, I only get as far as Select Airport network, but it keeps scanning forever but doesn't find the network. Meanwhile my iBook G4 and a PowerMac on the same network connect no problem.
    I get the Self Assigned IP address message in network preferences.
    I have searched the forums for this problem, and found lots of other people having the same problem, but none of the suggested fixes have worked. The only thing I can't do is reboot the modem as it's my landlords network and I don't have access to it.
    Things I have tried include:
    -turning airport on and off
    -deleting the airport preferences plist file from system preferences and rebooting
    -deleting airport from network preferences and adding it again
    -deleting all locations and creating a new one
    -using manual dhcp and putting in an ip address same as the ibook with 1 extra number at the end
    -turning of the firewall
    -rebooting rebooting rebooting
    None of the above works. Can anyone can suggest any thing else? It's driving me crazy! I know there are lots of other posts on this topic but I think I tried all of the fixes suggested without any success.
    Thanks

    There is a fair chance it's a problem with the DNS settings your ISP uses. Here is what I'd recommend.
    1. System preferences
    2. Network
    3. Click Advanced
    4. Click DNS tab
    5. Click + sign
    6. Add 208.67.222.222
    7. Click + sign
    8. Add 208.67.220.220
    9. Click OK.
    10. Exit System Preferences
    11. Try out your iMac and report what happened.
    Regards,
    Roger

  • Sharing Internet Connection from iMac to MacBook Pro

    I've arrived home for the holiday from university and, of course, brought my MacBook Pro home with me. My family does not have a wireless Internet connection as I do at uni, but they do have an iMac connected to a cable modem via ethernet. So I have enabled Internet connection sharing on the iMac and told the iMac not to sleep unless it is inactive for 3 hours (it gets used frequently enough that this shouldn't be a problem, and the computer can go into sleep mode at night). The iMac screen is set to turn off after about 20 minutes, to save energy.
    The iMac's sharing is via AirPort and it has a WEP password. I use my MacBook Pro's AirPort card to connect to the iMac's connection. Unfortunately, after about 20-30 minutes of using the wireless on the MBP, the safari web browser claims that I am not connected to the Internet and the AirPort card gets a "self-assigned" IP address. The solution is to restart the MBP.
    Why is this happening, and is there anything I need to do on either of the computers to fix the problem? Both computers are running 10.5.1 with all security updates installed. It's frustrating having to constantly restart the computer when I'm using the Internet.

    My problem is similar. I'm trying to do internet share from iMac G5 (w/ iSight) to MacBook Pro, both running 10.5.1. The iMac is connected to dsl/router via ethernet, and I'm trying to internet share to MBP via airport. I cannot establish connection, even though airport shows full strength signal. I checked password over and over and over, and that seems fine. But Network preference panel shows airport to have self-assigned IP.
    I tried internet share from iMac to MBP via firewire, but that did not work either.
    On a (un)related? note, I used to be able to share screen, but only in one direction. I could control the iMac from my MBP, but never the other way around despite the fact all the firewall and sharing is set identical. Now, even though in both computers I have the other computer showing up in the sidebar of the Finder, screen share and file share fails. I just don't know what happened!
