Unable to connet to internet with safari or other mac applications

I have just moved over to mac. Everything is working well except when I try to access the internet from safari and other mac applications such as iphoto and itunes. I am working off a wireless network. I loaded Firefox and it connects to the internet fine. I can also print through the network from my Macbook. I have checked everything, any thoughts?

You know....I rebotted the router like 5 times tonight, and it finally worked. I'm not sure what finally got my computer and the router to shake hands, but, I don't care...at least it works now.a

  • No internet with safari and appstore

    Hi,
    odd enough my mac mini (mid 2011 2.7GHz i7 16GB) with mavericks doesn't like to connect to the internet with safari or software update or appstore. Also no printing over the LAN!
    Firefox, Mail, Terminal etc are working just fine with their connection!
    The strange thing is, that my MBP (Beginning 2011, 13" 2.3GHz i5 8GB) and iMac27 (2009) have no such problems with Mavericks Safari ...
    Any hints?
    I tried a lot of DNS already to no avail, switching to WLAN no change, resetting Safari - nope...
    Best Regards

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac. 
    These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing. 
    Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects. 
    Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then copy it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands. 
    Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply. 
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways: 
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.) 
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens. 
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid. 
    When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign. 
    Step 1 
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}' | open -ef
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting. A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. If the command produced no output, the window will be empty. Post the contents of the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window), if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. You can then close the TextEdit window. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that. No typing is involved in this step.
    Step 2 
    Repeat with this line:
    { sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix\.cron)|org\.(amav|apac|cups|isc|ntp|postf|x)/{print $3}'; echo; sudo launchctl getenv DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES; echo; sudo defaults read com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook; echo; sudo crontab -l; } 2> /dev/null | open -ef
    This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. Type it carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Heed that warning, but don't post it. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. 
    Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step. 
    Step 3
    { launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}'; echo; launchctl getenv DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES; echo; crontab -l 2> /dev/null; } | open -ef
    Step 4
    ls -A /e*/{cr,la,mach}* {,/}Lib*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts .la* 2> /dev/null | open -ef
    Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting. 
    Step 5
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of login items' | open -ef
    Remember, steps 1-5 are all copy-and-paste — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output. 
    You can then quit Terminal.

  • HT4061 I did install the OS7 on my Ipad yesterday, and right now, while browsing internet with safari, the screen turned black, and no way to return to normal

    I am lost: I did install iOS7 a couple of days ago, and right now, while browsing internet with Safari, the screen turned black suddenly, and I can't reactivate it anyway (buttons death, screen death)

    Thank you very much!
    During the minutes needed  looking for help, I decided to put the magnetic cover on the screen again, and I connected the iPad to the charger. Whe I did uncover the iPad now for a try with your tip (hold sleep and home buttons for about 10 seconds), it came to life again.
    Thank you.
    Best regards,
    Lorenzo

  • Cannot access the internet with Safari

    Safari locked up and made me restart the computer. When I did, I could no longer access the internet with Safari. I could still get into the ITunes store, had internet contect come over my dashboard, but cannot get online. I spent two hours with customer service, emptying caches, re-installing Safari, etc. but still have no luck as of today. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Hi
    Welcome to  Discussions
    I grew up in the Delaware Valley - Delaware County/Media.
    Do you remember specifically what you were doing in Safari when it locked up, locking up your entire system. It's rare this happens in OS X.
    Also, which version of OS X Tiger are you using - the latest is 10.4.9? You can determine such by going to the Apple Menu in the upper left of the screen and selecting "about this Mac". The next panel will show you your OS X version, plus other information about your system.
    Regarding the inability to connect, try Safari from another User Account. In case you require it, here's how to set up another account:
    Here is guidance from Apple on how to set up the account. You can ignore step 7 in the article.
    Also, on the system preference>Accounts panel, click on "log-in" options. There, select "fast user switching". This allows you to go back and forth between user accounts via an icon in your Menu Bar at the top of the computer screen.
    Log-on to the new account and start Safari. If Safari connects to the internet in the new account, then your problem is specific to your regular user account. Otherwise, similar response means a system-wide problem.

    Ok..So you mean still cannot accessing the website with Internet connection? Try to use nslookup in command prompt to check whether can resolve domain name correctly. Also make sure you can ping the router's LAN IP from computer.
    If not, you can try to use the following DNS servers from OpenDNS.com:
    208.67.220.220
    208.67.222.222

  • How can I view all images with Safari on my mac?

  • Can't get on internet with Safari 3.2 or Firefox 3.0.5

    Hello all,
    I am totally frustrated! I cannot get on the internet with either of the above browers except when I get on some neighbor's network. I cannot get on by just using an ethernet cable. This is terrible. OK . . . I have done the following (in no particular order)
    1. cleared history
    2. reset Safari
    3. uninstalled Flashplayer 9
    4. installed Flashplayer 10
    5. emptied cache
    6. setup and tried another user
    7. uninstalled Safari
    8 installed Safari again
    9. unchecked fraudulent sites
    When I check the system preferences, it says I am connect to the internet. Too bad this isn't true!
    I have Earthlink.
    Where is the report I see people posting?
    Thanks,
    Tricia

    I seem to be talking to myself here, BUT I think I have fixed my problem. I tried everything suggested in this forum; then I decided to try a different modem. Earthlink was supposed to send me a new modem if I paid the shipping. However, when I opened the box, I found a refurbished modem which I have been trying for weeks. I set up the old one, and now things are working. I even got my new Airport Express set up and working for the moment! Who knows if this will last, but I thought I would post it as a suggestion for people to check out their modem.

  • Unable to connect to network with Safari and Software Update

    A user I support has encountered a problem with networking. He is unable to connect to the network with Safari and Software Update, but IS able to connect and surf with Foxfire and some other programs. Another unusual symptom is that he actually can connect to one web site (which is in his Bookmarks Bar) with Safari, but can't connect to anything else. He's also unable to navigate off of that one site he connects to. When he runs Network Diagnostics, he gets all green lights (no problems). He has fixed permissions, deleted Safari Cache and .plist, rebooted - not fixed yet. He's using 10.4.8 on a PowerPC G4. Any ideas appreciated (this is the wierdest I've seen in a while!).

    Here's what he did. After reading your post, he created another location in his network preferences, entering EXACTLY the same info that was in his old location (he even used the old DNS addresses), except using a new location name. Then he chose the new location and "everything worked". It's one of life's great mysteries. Thanks for your help - it is appreciated.

  • Unable to download PDF docs with Safari

    I cannot download PDF documents from the internet, using Safari.  All I get is a plain black screen, with the following message: "the document "04_712....._12Sep11_A.pdf" could not be exported as  "Hydro Bill.pdf".  Alternatively, I have absolutely no problem opening PDF documents from files on my computer.  I have downloaded the most recent version of Adobe Reader but that made no difference.  How can I fix this?

    Hi Sue,
    I have downloaded the most recent version of Adobe Reader but that made no difference

  • Unable to connect to disscusions with Safari

    Hi,
    This has happened quit a bit over the last week or so. I try to get to the discussions, http://discussions.apple.com/ with Safari and I get the discussions temporarily away page. I then use Firefox and get in. In fact I'm entering this in Firefox while Safari is telling me the discussions are not available.
    Clearing cookies seem to let me get in with Safari but as I said this has happened a lot over the past week or so.
    Any ideas, something at my end or what?
    Thanks

    Not you, it's been happening to a lot of people, just ride it through and wait till the furniture has been moved into, place. There are lots of oddities happening lately, it may be connected with the new Communities or it may just be overloaded servers, but it's definitely not just you.

  • Problems with Safari, Acrobat, Intel Macs, and Life Cycle Form Mgr.

    Here is my problem:
    A Mac user using 10.4.10, with Acrobat Standard Ed v.7.0.9 installed,
    is having to approve purchase forms through Adober Life Cycle Form Manager
    through Safari 2.0.4. When trying to approve the PDF forms, it tells her
    she needs to have Acrobat v.7 installed, and only shows a white page.
    Went back and launched Acrobat 7.0.9, and did the "Detect and Repair"
    setting to verify the Adobe PDFViewer plugin was installed.
    Said it was, checked the Library/Internet Plugins folder and it was.
    Launched Safari, Safari's list of plug-ins does not show it as being installed.
    Trashed the Safari .plist file, relaunched Safari, same thing.
    Read on the Apple site that people were experiencing similar issues,
    Read on Adobe's site that for Intel Macs, should be using v. 8.01.
    Downloaded the 8.01 Acrobat Reader and installed it.
    re-launched Safari, success, it says the plugin, v.8.01 is installed.
    Go back to Adobe Life Cycle Forms Manager, go to view a PDF,
    at 100% screen size, PDF shows correctly. Zoom in on details,
    PDF goes blank, will not show details. Zoom back out,
    PDF goes white page, no info displayed.
    My Questions:
    1. is it an issue with Adobe Life Cycle Forms Manager and Safari on Intel Macs?
    2. Is there a way to get a proper plug in for Safari, so that Acrobat will read the PDFs
    instead of the default Preview?
    thanks in Advance

    bump
    anybody running ALCFM and Acrobat 8 with an Intel Mac,
    are you running into issues with approval of PDF forms?

  • In hotel room, wifi will not give web page to login with safari or other web browser

    I reinstalled mountain lion thinking it might have something to do with college internet settings but still cannot login. Support desk for the network say that other mac pro computers are not having this problem. I can use my iPad, iPod and Windows PC without issue.

    Hello MountP,
    The best way to take care of that is to either start fresh on your library or import the files that are already on your computer. The following article will assist with that.

  • Retrieving Time Machine Files with Windows or Other Mac

    Hi everyone. I'm using a MacBook 4,1 running 10.6.8 and I also have an external hard drive in order to use Time Machine for backup.
    If my MacBook dies then all I'm left with is the aforementioned external drive. However since my files have been backed up via Time Machine – and not the usual copy/paste method – what happens then? Do I need to buy a new Mac or is it possible to retrieve those files with a computer running Windows?
    Please keep in mind that I only have one account – the administrator one – which is password protected, requested at login. In case I can't possibly retrieve them with Windows and I buy a new Mac, will the fact that they are password protected be a problem and prevent me from accessing them?
    I can't possibly try it out myself because I don't have any other Mac or Windows computer/laptop.
    Any insight is more than welcome. Thank you for your time.

    If my current MacBook stops working and I get to buy a new Mac, is it possible to choose individual files (like iTunes libraries only, or pictures folders etc.) from my current Time Machine backup on my external HD and move them to my new Mac, instead of loading my entire backup on to the new one? (including system files and other files that I don't really need).
    Pretty much how one might use Time Machine, where you browse backups by date, find the folders and files that you want and restore them back. You don't restore the entire backup.
