Unable to open webpage in Safari, Firefox, Explorer, Camino, etc..

originally posted in the Safari forum, and someone suggested i post here also:
I'm almost at my wits end here.
first off here is the site I need to connect to:
www.eyemedvisioncare.com
not only this address but all pages connected to this URL do not load. The message I get is "Safari can’t open the page.
Safari could not open the page http://www.eyemedvisioncare.com/because the server stopped responding."
I've scoured this board to find similar problems. And I have and had followed all advice. Though the key difference between my problem and all others is that the page will not load in any other browser.
I'll run down the list of things I've tried.
Empty safari cache
Reset Safari
deleted prefs
checked firewall
reinstall Safari
archive and install system
clean install
I've also eliminated the router as a cause by directly connecting to the net from the modem.
i had been able to connect to the site in the recent past and had not changed a thing or installed anything. I thought a clean install would solve the problem but that's what drove me here. The office that uses this computer need to connect to 3-4 websites daily, that it, just a few sites and email. I cannot stand the thought of having to buy a PC just to connect to one website. I'd buy a new mac if i thought that would work but I've tried the site at home on 2 other computers with the same result. though i could connect to it from other offices and i'm sure readers and posters will be able to connect to it with no problems.
thanks in advance.
minor update:
i thought i'd try installing panther and deal with an older OS. Still no results with safari or even internet explorer. also tried explorer under VPC with no success.
someone suggested connecting with just the IP and that did not work either. I had a feeling when the site could not be pulled up with Firefox or Explorer that the problem might be somewhere else.

In Terminal, try:
curl http://www.eyemedvisioncare.com/
and see if it returns the page. If it does, then I think it may be something in the browsersniffer.js script that that site uses, http://www.eyemedvisioncare.com/resources/browsersniffer.js . If curl doesn't return anything, then it would probably be time to check routing as a culprit.

    i haven't done anything in console. i don't really
    understand that part of computing.
    Console is not something you do anything in, it records what is going , where it logs errors, crashes et.. and where troubleshooting can start from.
    I mentioned Looking to see if you had errors logged.
    i can access any other site just fine.
    The problem, again is Not with Safari or other Browsers, if other sites are fine.
    i could understand that it may be the site if i
    wasn't able to connect to it from other sources. the
    computer are surely online or i would not be posting.
    1) I would not be able to know which computer you are posting from.
    2) Again I can connect to the site and browse, does not mean there is not something wrong with it.My console produce errors as I have mentioned.
    also i just got off the phone with Apple Care tech
    support. it seems that because i can access other
    sites this is not an issue they will support. so,
    That is is because the issue us NOT with Safari , rather your ISP, or your Network Settings.
    that means that my problem as well as all similar
    problems on this board will not get the attention

  • I installed Firefox 3.6. Since then, I am unable to open pdf documents in Firefox. I get a black page. I tried opening the same document in Internet Explorer. It worked fine. I recently installed Nuance's pdf reader and thought that might be the problem.

    I installed Firefox 3.6. Since then, I am unable to open pdf documents in Firefox. I get a black page. I tried opening the same document in Internet Explorer. It worked fine. I recently installed Nuance's pdf reader and thought that might be the problem. Uninstalled it. Still have the problem with Firefox.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    How about if you right click on the PDF and select Save Link As..., and then open it locally from within Reader? Does it work ok then?  That might be a workaround until the issue within the browser is resolved.

  • Unable to open webpages

    I am unable to open webpages with my N95 device. When I go to the webbrowser, it does nothing. When I try top open a file (e.g. a message attachment) of .HTML type I get the message "Unable to open files of this type".
    Can anyone advise?

    Just in case someone else has this problem I thought I would post the solution:
    When you use the menu to "restore factory settings", you are doing a "soft reset". There is also the option of a "hard reset".
    What you do is to backup all your personal data and settings from the phone (make sure you have the latest version of PC Suite). Then you enter the "hard/deep reset" code (which reformats the c: drive and rewrites clean default files). Then you restore your personal data and settings using PC Suite.
    Source:
    http://myn95.com/?p=3
    "Normal Reset (*#7780#) : Restores ini files from rom but preserves user data (photos, 3rd party apps etc)
    Deep Reset (*#7370#) : This reformats completely the C: drive. All applications and files stored on this drive will be lost and clean default files will be rewritten."

  • Ebay will not load on safari, firefox or camino, but all other sites load without any problem. Can anyone help?

    ebay will not load on safari, firefox or camino, but all other sites load without any problems. Why is this? Can anyone help?

    It should be: Click on Home Folder (the House) and to the right Library is shown, click on the arrow on the Library folder to reveal its contents and then click on Cookies to reveal its contents and then move the Cookies.plist to the Trash as Carolyn suggests.
    Then try eBay again.

  • Unable to download firefox browser and unable to open webpages normally ??

    I am a new Macbook user, I just got a new Air, I am having trouble downloading Firefox, I tried downloading the file from the download section however, I was unable to open the webpage and recieved the following error:
    afari can’t open the page “http://wsidecar.apple.com/cgi-bin/nph-reg3rdpty2.pl/product=03699&cat=11&platfor m=osx&method=sa/download.html?product=firefox-3.5.1&os=osx&lang=en-US” because it can’t find the server “wsidecar.apple.com”.
    Also, I am unable to open certain webpages like facebook and youtube properly. Do i need to installl any plug ins? or anything else ?
    Thank you

    Hi Manu,
    The best way to download Firefox would be through the official source at http://www.getfirefox.com. When it finishes downloading, drag the Firefox icon to your Applications folder, and then "eject" the disk image.
    Regarding other sites, you may be having trouble due to not having the Flash plugin installed. You can download it at http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    Hope this helps.

  • Unable to load webpage in Safari that loads fine in Windows XP

    I can not load a webpage in Safari that loads fine in Windows XP. Any suggestions?

    Hi,
    They may be doing some checking of the user agent information the web browser sends and handling Safari incorrectly. Try changing the user-agent to, say, Firefox 3.0.5 and see if you can then access the page.
    To change the user agent, you need to enable the Develop menu. This can be done via the Advanced section of the Safari preferences. In the new menu that appears at the top of the screen, you can then select an alternate user agent.
    This setting only lasts as long as the tab remains open, so everytime you open a new tab you will need to change that setting from the default.
    If that does help, send feedback to the bank about their site not working correctly with Safari. The only browsers they recommend are Netscape 4.5 and IE 5.0 which are both about 10 years out of date

  • Unable to open AOL mail using firefox

I hope you would answer this one...

  • I am unable to open pdf files in firefox, and I have tried all the solutions proposed by others. How can I re-enable pdf viewing in firefox?

    I have recently switched to Firefox from Google Chrome, and I am finding that I am unable to open any pdf files from the web in any way in Firefox. I cannot download them and open them in Adobe Reader, and I cannot preview them in Firefox, nor can I use the Adobe plugin. I have tried to use the solutions posed by users on this site, but none of them have worked. Any time I make a change to settings to try to solve this issue, the change never allows me to view the pdf file, and the setting reverts to the previous setting after the browser has been restarted. I don't care how I view the file, but I need to either be able to view it as a preview or I need to be able to download it.

    I don't know if this is any help I have had a problem where the pdf files were not opening correctly which I think was the problem here. I spent hours of head scratching and have now found out what the problem is. Right click on the Adobe Reader Icon on the desktop. Select properties and then the compatibility tab. You will see the uppermost section in this screen is Compatibility mode. I have Windows 7 and mine was set to Windows XP. I changed that to Windows 7 and now the problem is resolved. In short use the above instructions to check you are using the right compatibility mode for the version of Windows you are using and your troubles should be over!!

  • Unable to open pdf files using Internet Explorer and Adobe 9.1

    We are unable to open any/all pdf files in Internet Explorer 6 or 7 using Adobe Reader 9.1 on Windows XP SP2.
    The error message is that IE has a problem and sorry for the inconvenience.
    Clicking "OK" closes IE.
    We did not have any issue with Adobe Reader 8.1.
    What we did to date:
    1. Uninstall Adobe Reader 9.1
    2. Run Windows Clean Utility to remove any remnant of Adobe Reader 8
    3. Re-install Adobe Reader 9.1
    Any other suggestions?
    Need to have this upgrade.

    I'm having a similar issue. Prior to upgrading to Acrobat 9.1 I was able to view PDFs from IE 6. No longer. Instead I get a message: "Error opening document. File cannot be found."
    Help?

  • Adobe Reader 11 is unable to open PDF's from Internet Explorer 11

    My boss is currently operating on the Adobe Reader 11 and often needs to use Internet Explorer 11 for certain programs.
    Unfortunately the Adobe Reader is unable to open PDFs from Internet Explorer and often comes up with a message telling us that the file is either damaged, no longer exists or that there is a problem with the syntax.  She does not have this problem with Google Chrome.  We have tried several ideas regarding the security settings but nothing seems to correct the problem.  Could someone shed some light on how to fix this error?

  • Unable to open PDF files in Internet Explorer

    Hello,
    One of our users has a problem with opening PDF files in Internet Explorer.
    Translation:
    Adobe PDF-document
    There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. Close Adobe Acrobat/Read and try again.
    The user is using Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard in combination with Windows XP and Internet Explorer 6. I reinstalled Adobe Acrobat (under an administrator account), deleted the local user profile and the problem is still there.
    Does anyone have an idea about this? The error message doesn't really say what is wrong. Adobe Reader is not installed.

    What exactly means "unable"?  Do you see a little x in a box on the top left of IE11?  If so, this may be the solution: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2716529
