Trouble with loading some sites...

I'm a new Mac user. On mac there are some website I can't load. For example, when I go to PrincetonReview.com and click on Login, it'll take me to the login page and I'll put in my info, after that it won't load the next page and it'll give me the error "Connection was reset" on Firefox and same thing on Safari.
Same thing when I try to sign up for a free registration at beachbody.com. I can go to the registration page and put in my info, after that it will go to an error page I've mention before on Firefox and Safari.
In the status bar, it seems like it's trying to contact the websites and it's taking a long time before it goes to those error pages.
Also both my browsers are updated.
The pages I can't load in Safari, it's the same on Firefox. When I used my PC, I had no problems loading any websites...please don't make me have to go back to PC.
Any ideas on why I can go to some websites and not all? Thanks!!!

Make sure you have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player:

  • Problems with loading certain sites

    Hello there,
    I'm using Safari 1.3.2 /v312.6) under OS X 10.3.9 on a G4 machine. Since a few weeks, my Safari causes troubles in loading certain sites. For example: www.Gemm.com and then: advanced search. This won't load! I found out, that it will load, when I disable 'Javascript' in the Safari preferences. The same problem occures with some other sites, but try the GEMM one as an example if you want. The Javascript is up to date, however only actualized with Apple's software update and never using any other resources. Other browsers, as Camino or Opera 9 are working fine. Could anyone give me an advice, what to do? Thanks for your reply.
    G4 and G5   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    I was actually coming in to post the same question but mine is slightly different.
    One of my sites will not display correctly in Safari on any of our computers. I have two sites that work fine but when I try to view www.pokerplasm.com in Safari it doesn't display correctly at all. Unlike the previous post disabling javascript does not help at all. When viewed in Safari the site that usually is well formatted, etc. when viewed in FireFox, Explorer, etc. displays as a solid brown page with the normally formated text spread across it as just broken up text and separated by lines of numbers. Banners that are usually located on the right side of the screen are moved into the main body text and placed at the bottom [or not displayed at all], and any links to forums, etc. are not shown at all.
    Does anyone know why Safari doesn't display these sites correctly. We validated the site last night thinking that may help, but it made no difference.
    Thanks for your help on this.

  • Using 3.6.23. When i upgrade, trouble with Lloyds tsb site.

    Using 3.6.23. When i upgrade, trouble with Lloyds tsb site. One of my accounts has code like>br all over it. Also when i want to access a specific account it logs me out. Cannot upgrade as cannot use internet banking. Any ideas? edit

    After I loaded 5.5, then removed it and loaded 3.6 again, I had no problems.
    Then my hard drive died and I installed a new one.
    Then I downloaded ONLY 3.6 since I already knew I didn't like the changes that 5.5 had made and the kinks hadn't been ironed out. That was in July.
    The hesitation problem started recently, toward the end of Sept. I have wireless cable modem that runs 36-54 mbps but in Sept/Oct I was visiting family and distance from their router sometimes meant running at 12 or 24. I thought the hesitation/lagging was due to that. BUT
    Since coming home in mid Oct., although nothing about my home connection has changed, I am finding this lagging/not responding/hesitation problem continues AS IF the connection were slow but router/modem/internet connection are all intact.
    This is what made me wonder if anyone else is experiencing this/reporting it to Firefox. Apparently not.

  • Problem with loading some forum sites

    I am unable to load some forum websites such as macrumors, droidfourms, and androidforums. Sometimes it works, but only for about a minute or two, then proceeds to go back to being unable to load it. The problem is that it loads just the top of the website, but none of the forum topics. It's a little strange. I use safari, and I tried it with mozilla and the same problem occured.
    Any help would be appreciated

  • 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.

  • MBP won't load some sites on the net ???

    Hi,
    At my work i can't load som epages on the net. Some works fine but others don't....When I get home everything works well. i think it's the way the net at work is set up, but i'm not sure. Our net at work is wuite slow, can that be the cause ? It tells me that *"the server stopped responding"*
    Any ideas ????

    Well in as much as they work at home one would assume that there are issues with internet service at your place of work or for some reason they are blocking web sites. As long as you have no issues at home it would seem that your MBP is OK.

  • DW MX trouble with loading PDF files

    I'm using Dreamweaver MX on an XP Pro machine and have
    trouble loading pdf documents to my web pages. It cooperates
    intermittently. I'm using a virtual pdf printer to convert word
    documents to pdf, then saving them to my website folder, selecting
    the linking text on my page in DW, using the link box to select my
    pdf document, then saving the page and putting files in both the
    local and remote views.
    This method has worked for me before, and now it's not. Does
    anyone know of a reason for this? The documents are saved
    correctly, as I can get them to open as pdf outside of dreamweaver
    and my webpage...when I click on the link I created online I get
    "page not found."
    Thanks for any help!

    I am having the same trouble with Dreamweaver MX 2004 on
    Mac-OSX since I switched from MacOs9. I still have no solution .
    When I want to export a .pdf file I get a message saying <ftp
    error>.
    I never had problems on Mac Os 9 and it started when using
    the first version of Mac Os X. I am presently using mac Os 10.4.10
    and I am still unable to transfer .pdf files, no matter whether I
    use acrobat or the Mac system to produce the.pdf file.
    When I try the page on my computer the link to the.pdf file
    functions allright, but not on the server as the file cannot be
    transfered to it by the software.
    Does someone know how to solve this ?

  • Issues with loading some webpages and dropbox. OS X Yosemite Wifi

    I am experiencing issues with my imac. As I was browsing Chrome this morning I went to load a page and suddenly it would not load and gave a page cannot be displayed error. Since then I'm having issues.
    My wifi says it's connected and everything is working fine. I can load some pages but not others (this is across all browsers I've tried: Chrome, Firefox, Safari). My dropbox desktop client will not load, nor can I load my dropbox account online. Also when I quit dropbox from the menu tray and try and reopen from applications it does nothing.
    My Google Drive desktop client and my google drive online is working perfectly though..
    I have shutdown and restarted my computer. I have also reset the modem. Nothing changed unfortunately though.
    I updated to OS X version 10.10.1 3 days ago. So maybe the update is partly responsible?
    Any ideas?

    Hello workingcars,
    I would start your troubleshooting with the first article below and use the Wireless Diagnostic to help isolate and resolve the issue. You also may want to create a new Network Location to see if there is that resolves the issue.

  • Firefox will not load my gmail, cleaned history, still will not load. I switched to goggle Chrome and I have no trouble with loading all programs. What is going on?

    All of a sudden it will not load my gmail. Restarted my computer, cleaned up history still not working on gmail. recently updated Firefox a few days ago, but I have not had trouble until today with loading gmail. Worked earlier.

    The problems are getting worse. I think I will have to give up on Firefox and go with the Google browser. No problems with IE just firefox and I can't take it anymore.

  • Anybody having intermittent trouble with Godaddy webmail site?

    About every other time I log in to the webmail account I have with Godaddy, the site is frozen, incomplete download, curser will not work, can only log back out. All other websites work properly. Firefox is the only browser I have been using up till now. Does Firefox not support the STMP webmail accounts very well?

    i think everyone is over thinking this question i have.... i create a movie in final cut, i notice final cut uses .mov file extensions. my godaddy web site i use, its a pre made template site i use, i have created a page that allowys me to insert video, when i insert the video to the designated area its says godaddy does not allow .mov only uses mpeg,avi,wmv,mpg my question is when creating a project in final cut and it gives you a .mov extension and you need it to be mpeg,avi,wmv,mpg so that it can play on something requiring that, what would you recommend? the site only allowys the file to be 30mb so whatever compression i use, it needs to be able to make the file size to that...h.264 with one pass gets the file size right but again i am understanding the compression aspect but not the file type. i have inserted several files with mpeg extensions that were not created in final cut and they all work fine. I am not getting the web site to recognize the . mov. if you got the prompt can not use .mov must be mpeg,avi,wmv,mpg what would you do.... i have my project in final cut so you can walk me through it as if you had a open project in final cut. i assume it should go step 1. export to: ? and then adjust the different settings ? i noticed that final cut has some mpeg options, and i tried them but it didnt make the files small enough 30mb. is this a matter of converting my file to one that will work or am i needing to export it in a specific manner. Again i have successfully got multiple videos to work that have mpeg extension that were not created in final cut.

  • Trouble with loading songs onto ipod

    I was trying to load some of my existing cd's onto my ipod and after a while it wouldnt load anymore songs on. And after several times of trying to get a cd onto my ipod, it deleted all the songs I had already in it off my ipod. So I had to go back and load all the previously existing songs back onto my ipod.
    I dont know why it isnt letting me load some of my cd's on. One cd it only loaded 1 song from the 12 that were on the cd.
    I dont want to risk trying to load another cd on if its going to erase everything again.
    Anyone know whats going on?

    I'm not sure about the whole problem, but for the CD problem, single click to hightlight the first song on the list that comes up when you use the CD. Then,while holding shift, click the last song on the list. If you'be done this correctly, you should see all the songs between the top and bottom hightlighted. Then, click and drag the songs into the library and they should all download. The first will download, then the next when that finishes, and you get the idea, P.S. you do not need to use shift when you drag the songs to the library.
    It's happened to me sometimes, too.

  • Safari wont load some sites

    i get this in do a disk repair Acl Found but not expected on Flashplayer.xpt and then i go to that folder and remove it and safari work just fine but i need flash to view some sites plz help

    I just checked the same file on my system and it has the same permissions as yours but no ACL.
    As I said, you can leave it alone but if it really bothers you, run the following command in terminal:
    *sudo chmod -N /Library/Internet\ Plug-Ins/flashplayer.xpt*
    You'll have to enter your admin password which you won't see as you type it. that's normal.
