Websites won't download properly

many (or most) of the websites I visit , will not download properly. Mainly Facebook, YOu Tube etc etc. Any quick simple suggestion??? it is driving me CRAZY, the little wheel at the right side of my browser, just continues to spin CONSTANTLY, and I can get nowhere. We have Wi-Fi in the house and our i-pad is doing the very same thing!!!!

It's an old chestnut, but it often works - try repairing parmissions and reset your PRAM.

Videos from purchased CD won't download properly - Errors 3159 or 3250

I bought and downloaded Beck's new CD. Several videos were part of the package but none of them downloaded. Each had either of the two following Errors: 3159 or 3250. How do I get them to download properly without repurchasing the entire thing...which I'm not about to do? Btw, I'm using the latest, updated version of iTunes.
Thanks for the help.
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

I had the exact same problem with the exact same CD. It successfully downloaded 3 of the songs/videos, and charged me for the whole CD...and I too had errors for most of them.
Please help -- because I also do not want to buy the CD again!

Websites won't load properly

Hi
After just fixing my wifi problem (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1345209) I am able to access the internet but I have a problems loading pages from some websites. The browser will say that I have loaded the page fully, but none of the flash, javascript, or backgrounds will load. Some pictures, but not most of them would load. The page is a white background with text and links and a couple small pictures. The text is a default font and only the links are a color other than black. Most sites will work, but a few big one's won't.
Some sites that won't work:
youtube.com (This wasn't working and then it worked for about three days and now it's not working again. It worked on all of the other computers in the house, mac or windows.)
facebook.com (This won't load on any of the mac computers in the house, but will work on our windows laptop.)
flickr.com
Sites that do work:
Google.com
apple.com
pretty much anything else.
This problem persists on both Firefox and Safari. I have tried restarting the computer, deleting the preference (.plist) files for both browsers, checking my firewall settings, and nothing has worked.
Does someone know what is wrong?
Cameron

I still haven't resolved this problem. Here is some more information...
youtube is the only website that has started working, but it sometimes stops working again.
There are many other sites that don't work, cnn.com, washingtonpost.com (sometimes), and a lot of others.
I have contacted our internet service provider and they said that they had nothing to do with the problem.
Some websites will not work at all. Safari tells me that it can't find the server. Some that do this are ups.com, computerworld.com, and others.
I think that the problem is that, for some reason, our mac computers can't access certain servers where we are. (We are at a small ski resort (on the mountain) in Canada.) I think this because when a site doesn't load properly there are several errors and they are all "can't find host" errors from a couple of the same sites (ex. example.something.something).
*Also, I ran a test on speedtest.net on the laptop and one of our iMacs and the results were way faster than anything actually loads/downloads or than the activity monitor shows, even when checking the activity monitor at the same time as running the test.

Loops and certain instruments won't download properly

The loops won't don't download as well as certain instruments. Any help?

This is the WMP plugin: np-mswmp , so you have it.
You may be missing a codec to play that content or some extension or security software is blocking that content.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]

Safari won't download properly

I deleted my realmedia .plist, which perhaps wasn't a good idea, and now when i go this website: http://www.kcm.org/media/webcasts/index.php , I'm unable to download the mp3s from it, whereas before Safari just opened up the download window, downloaded the file and I went on my merry wey, now it opens a new window, plays the file if I want, but I can't save the thing.
How do I reset Safari to download the way it originally did?

Videos won't download properly from my digital camera

I recently bought a 7.2 megapixel digital camera and on any of the video settings that I record a video, the videos don't import properly into iPhoto. The thumbnail in iPhoto is just a black square and it shows the length of the video in seconds. when I click on it to play in quicktime, all i see is a white screen. In the Finder, the thumbnail is a white box. In QuickTime, the sound works fine, just no images. Any ideas???

Hi Mich 64elle,
check your camera specs and see what the file type is of the video clips.
How long are your video clips?
Have you tried using Image Capture and see if the clips download correctly?
Using Image Capture to download images and video clips:
Open up Image Capture which is found in the Applications folder.
When it is opened, go to Image Capture/Preferences
Under the General button choose
Camera: When a camera is connected, open Image Capture.
The next time you connect your camera Image Capture will open.
In the window that opens you will see an Options button. Click on that button to set your options.
To find out more about Image Capture (it can do a lot more) Click on Help in the menu bar when Image Capture is open.
iPhoto: How to Change the "Open Automatically" Preference
I just got a new Canon S2 IS. It can take a video for as long as you have a card that can hold it. I don't use iPhoto to download from from camera. I use Image Capture and have no problems. The file type of the videos is AVI

My website won't load properly in FF but will in IE - tried solutions - didn't work

I have 2 websites (1 cloned from the other) that both worked well in FF - until about a month ago.
www.drydiapersplus.ca
(landing page now loading properly in FF - but loads properly in IE) and www.drydiapersplus.com (loads properly)
When I try & open the .ca site - the left panel, top panel and right panel open up correctly - and the top text...but none of the images load up in the bottom 1/2 of the screen in the middle.
I've tried clearing cache, I've tried CNTRL F5 (hard refresh) - and none of it works.
'''This is the .ca site that DOES NOT load correctly in FF (but does in IE)'''

''edited by a moderator to fix the first two hyperlinks - Ed''

Turns out, after much going back and forth (and having them read your response) - that there was an issue with the security certificate and how the images were all 'secure' images..... so - the host reinstalled the security certificate - or whatever it was they did (I'd complained about this a month ago to my web developer - and was told it was my computer - but when a customer started having the same issues - they looked into it more - and found out it was a security certificate issue).
Thank you for your help - because it was your information that got my web developer to get on the host and get it fixed. :-)

V.4.2 won't download properly

Hello - Just tried to download the Desktop Manager 4.2 for my Pearl several times and the only thing that downloads is the ReadMe. I also Removed the program and tried again, and still no icon appears on desktop, and when you click on the program in program files, only the Readme is there, not the program. Any ideas? Thanks!

Redirected Downloads won't download properly

Downloads that are downloaded via a redirection service (And thus, never have a time remaining) are having trouble starting on the newest version of Firefox/redesign (29.0)
I can't give the web address to such a file however.

They will start downloading after a considerable amount of idle time however.

Music won't download properly to new ipad. All song details are on but no actual content

ITUNES WON'T DOWNLOAD PROPERLY!

Download appears to work until I try and open ITunes on the desk top... it just stalls. Have re-installed/uninstalled now five times same thing happens. Any suggestions? Thanks!

not often I reply to my own posts lol
After trying many different fixes, I stumbled across this post on another board
In Windows, some background processes can cause issues for other programs and processes. These conflicts can prevent applications such as iTunes and QuickTime Player from working correctly, opening, or even installing. You might be able to resolve these conflicts by disabling some items using the System Configuration Utility (MSCONFIG) in Windows XP. This utility is not included with Windows 2000.
Important: Disabling third-party System Services and Startup Items can prevent some software or OEM hardware on your computer from working correctly. For example, this can affect the CD/DVD control buttons on portable computers.
1. On the Start menu, click Run. A Run window (command prompt) appears.
2. Type msconfig in the Open field and click OK. The System Configuration Utility opens.
3. Click the General tab.
4. Select the "Selective Startup" option.
5. Deselect the "Load Startup Items" checkbox.
6. Click the Startup tab.
7. Select the "iTunesHelper" and "qttask" checkboxes in the list.
8. Click the Services tab.
9. Make sure that "Hide All Microsoft Services" is selected.
10. Click Disable All.
11. Select the iPodService checkbox in the list.
12. Click OK.
13. Click Restart.
If following these steps resolves the issue, you may want to use the System Configuration Utility to turn on the third-party System Services and Startup Items one or a few at a time (restarting your computer after turning on the item or items) to identify which System Service or Startup Item is causing the conflict. You can turn all of them back on by selecting the Normal Startup option under the General tab of the System Configuration Utility window, but please note that this may cause the issue to recur.
I tried that too and of course it did not work either.
I fumbled about for a while and then I accidnetally got it to work.
This is as close as I can reconstruct what I did; I hope it helps.
I have NIS 2005. I also installed the QT standalone player as suggested elsewhere on these forums.
Then, I followed the magical post by Lorraine, to no avail.
Then, I tried the above steps right after that.
Again, it did not work, however, after that failed,this is what I did do;
In the above suggestion, I followed steps 1-4, skipped step 5.
In step 7, I deselected everything, including ituneshelper and qttask.
Then I followed steps 8-13
Once the pc was fired up again, I started Itunes with no problem. I was then able to start NIS via a shortcut icon on the desktop or via the start menu.
Once I tried to connectthe ipod with itunes shut down, itunes didnt come up, so I had to redo all those steps again. This time, I connected the ipod while itunes was open and it worked.
I have restarted a couple of times since, and while I had to repeat the steps once, I cannot remember what I did,but I think it was because I had installed videora after I had input the fix.
All seems to work ok now.
Believe me, I know how frustrating it is. I was about to dump the Ipod and go back to my Rio player.
I hope this can be somewhat helpful.

Creative Cloud download problems. Deleted old versions incorrectly and new won't download properly.

I had a trial version of the Adobe Creative suite that was already on this machine and it was preventing me from downloading the full version of Premiere Pro that I had just signed on for. I foolishly just deleted all of the old Adobe Programs instead of un-installing. Any ideas on how to get this up and running would be helpful.

I bought a movie and it won't download properly?

I tried redownloading it but that won't work.

Whilst Apple recommend at least 6 Mbps for HD content I would think you should have little problem from your internet connection, you certainly shouldn't see the wait times you report.
Have you considered interference on your LAN, you might try using a different wifi channel. If you have the option are you able to test your set up by replacing wifi with ethernet.
