Unable to access website using home network but able to access using school network.

Hi, I'm currently on a MacBook Pro running OS X Mountain Lion and Safari v6.0.4.
As per the title, I'm unable to access particular websites, namely abduzeedo.com and fromupnorth.com, using my home network but when I try to access using my school network, I can access it freely.
The error message I get is: "Safari can't open the page [website] because the server where this page is located isn't responding"
I've tried clearing my cache, resetting my IP, deleting the library file (or whatever it was that some people suggested in forums) but it still doesn't work ):
Any suggestions?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including Wi-Fi on certain iMacs.  The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • Can connect to wireless network but no internet access

    I have a PC that runs on Windows Vista and a wireless network using Airport Extreme. My PC can connect to the wireless network but I cannot access the internet. Windows Network Diagnostics states that 'A problem with your network router or broadband modem might be preventing an internet connection'. There should be no problem with my modem as I can access internet using my powerbook. When I run airport utility on my PC, there is an error message that states that 'An error occurred while trying to access the Apple wireless device. Make sure your network connection is valid and try again', 'error -6753'.

    I am glad you brought this up. I am having the same difficulty. I run an iMac OS X 10.5.6 with an intel processor and a parallel system to get me on the Windows side. When I try to access the internet using my Airport extreme I cannot access any sites and the internet explorer page pops up with "The page cannot be displayed and sends me to try the diagnose connection problems on the toolbar method. However I can see my base station and all looks fine with the information there. I can also access the internet from my mac side of the computer. It would be nice to use the Windows side to gain access to the net because I have programs for the windows side that need updating. Anyone out there have any suggestions?

  • Ipod touch shows connection with home computer but can't access internet

    Just got ipod touch...and can't connect to internet on home computer.  Wifi is on and it shows connection to my home computer but I can access the internet.

    What iP address is shown on the iPod for network connection?  If it starts with 169 you are not connected to the network, the 169 IP is assigned by the iPod and not obtained form the router.
    I would try:
    - powering off and then back on yur router.
    - Reseting network settings on the iPod: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings.

      Dear Staff
        I have a consultation with you. Because my sister is updating the IOS8 I phone 4S. Then was not able to use it. Random screen freezes apple. So bring your instruments to Restore Center. Machine can use it. But can not access the page that actually works. Because of the problems with ID of icloud.
    She forgot the ID of the user and that of the other. I caught only a password is *******. I would like to ask for technical assistance. What should I do to get back to work normally. Or you can reset the ID and password or not., And set to work. If you do not have an iPhone, this airplane. It becomes a good paperweight itself.Hope you will understand. Buying splash, it is not easy because it's expensive.Learn to understand and to help.

    It is locked to your sisters carrier.
    She would have to ask her carrier if they unlock iPhones and if she qualifies for this service.

  • HT4437 I have followed all relevant steps, my iPhone5 and apple TV are connected to the same wireless network, but I still cannot use airplay. When I choose the airplay option on my phone, the only option I get is "iPhone"

    I have followed all relevant steps, my iPhone5 and apple TV are connected to the same wireless network, but I still cannot use airplay. When I choose the airplay option on my phone, the only option I get is "iPhone"

    Welcome to the Apple Community Willy.
    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
    Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
    Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
    Restart your mobile device.

  • I want to transfer purchased song from mac to mac using home sharing but retain all the song modifications I have done

    I want to transfer purchased song from mac to mac using home sharing but retain all the song modifications I have done.  I am finding this very difficult

    If your intention is to copy a just documents and data (word processing files and music for example) then yes, you can use drag and drop. If you want to transfer data and applications and permissions, it would actually be easiest to connect the drive to your old computer and turn on TimeMachine. Once TM is finished, connect the drive to your new computer and restart it holding the option key to get into Recovery mode. Then you can use the restore from TM option to transfer your data and programs to the new computer.

  • I have a new mac book pro which i use in england but I need to use German charachters frequently, is there a way of having both visable on the keyboard?

    I have a new mac book pro which i use in england but I need to use German charachters frequently, is there a way of having both visable on the keyboard?
    For example so that I can just press shift or another key to get the German character.

    Some may already exist, but you will have to learn them.  On my old system these can be found through keyviewer.app  For example, if I press option+s I get ß   Umlaut is a bit cumbersome as option+u then the actual letter.  It may be possible to bind a key to do this function, possibly through System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts
    I have old, old references for utilities that let you rebind keys to other functions, and you would have to see if they have modern equivalents.
    Ukelele Mac OS X Keyboard Layout Editor - http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi&id=ukelele - mostly useful for character, not function mapping.
    Check Butler, ikeys, quickeys or Spark

  • I have an I phone 4 that I use in Singapore, but would like to use it in the US while on holiday. How do I cahnge out the sim card, and is there anything else that I need to do.

    I have an I phone 4 that I use in Singapore, but would like to use it in the US while on holiday. How do I change out the sim card, and is there anything else that I need to do?

    Ignore the other post (the one from Brendan), he has no idea what he is talking about.
    Read your manual (you have a bookmark to it in Safari on your iPhone or put iBooks on your iPhone and download the manual from the iBookStore) and it will show you how to remove the microSIM from your iPhone. AT&T is not tourist friendly and does not offer a pay as you go plan for visitors with an iPhone. If you are going to be here for a short time you can probably buy a pay as you go microSIM and use it before AT&T notices, if it is going to be for a long time that won't work.
    There is a 3rd party company that will sell you a microSIM that will work with AT&T but they are pretty pricey.
    Finally, you can get a pay as you go microSIM from T-Mobile to work with your iPhone but you will only have EDGE data speeds.

    I have a Netgear wndr3400 and I can "join a wireless network" but can not "extend a wireless network" on my Airport express.  Does anyone know why?

    Sorry, but "Extend a wireless network" is a proprietary Apple setting that will only work if you have another Apple router.
    It is not compatible with devices from other manufacturers.

    Does anyone know of a good online video instruction on how to put together a photo slideshow in the new iMovie 11 version. I found uTube videos using imported videos, but I want to use photos in iPhoto. I'm very familiar with how to do this in the pervious version, but it's no so intuitive in the new version.

    Has anyone tried this one.. I am not sure if I am allowed to post information about other products... so if I am not please delete this part of my message.

  • Unable to use scan with networked HP LaserJet M1536dnf MFP using Mac OSX, but able to print.

    Thanks for any help. 
    I'm using an HP LaserJet M1536dnf MFP.
    It is networked wirelessly via an Apple Extreme and prints just fine over the network but will not scan. 
    Yet, it scans just fine when I move the printer's USB cable from the Extreme directly to the MacBook Pro (a bit of a hassel).
    When I try to scan over the wireless network, I'm able to go through the scan driver interface and see the printer, but when I click on "Scan", I recieve this error message:
    "Scanner communication cannot be established."
    "HP LaserJet M1536dnf MFP is currently unavailabe.  Ensure cables are connected.. etc."

    Hello, DP Photo, sounds like a scanning issue with the software. To start I want you to completely remove the software and then reinstall the programming from the packages available on the website I am going to link you to below. Use the full-feature software if available.
