Websites work on my work computer, but not at home?

I have an iMac G5 20" 2.0GHz OSX 10.4.7 at work running Safari 2 that will open any website I want, but when I get home and try to open the same websites on my iMac G5 20" 2.1GHz OSX 10.4.7 running Safari 2, they don't open.
I don't believe the sites are just down at the same time everyday. Any ideas? Thanks.
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Jason,
If you would like to turn on the built-in firewall on your Mac, you could do the followings:
1. Select System Preferences
2. Under the Internet & network section, select Sharing
3. Select the Firewall tab, click on the Start button to turn it on. You also may want to enable the Stealth mode by click on the Advanced... button
There is a couple of services that you may want to enable while you are configuring the network sharing, I normally turn on SSH and FTP for remote access.

SWF works on any local computer but not on website

Hi Guys
I have developed a website using flash and xml. My export folder containts my swf file, html files nad xml config files (plus a numebr of images etc). The export fodler does not have any .fla files etc.
When running the site locally all works perfecctly, but when trying to run off the web there is text corruption and layout problems. I obviously though it was a pthing issue - so I sent the export folder to a friend (exactly the same contents as what is loaded on the site) and he can laucnh and view the site perfectly - so its not a pathing issue as far as I can see.
WOuld there be a reason why text is not visible when viewing off the web (but you can click here the text shoudl be - highlight then it suddenly appears). Also where text is located ont he design it has become double sapced ont he web version but not when running locally. I have checked all the permissions to 777 incase of an issue there.
If it was a pathing issue - why would it work on various other computers when senidng just the export folder (which contains no sub folders at all) it can't be taking anything fromt he root or parent folder as it wouldnt work on the other local machines it has been tested on?
Please let me know if anyone has any ideas as its really frustrating. I have folowed the logic of sending the output folder to other computers and it works perfectly (remember no subfolders or parent folders so its only looking for local files within the folder)....weird!?
Thanks

Thanks I will try and contact the hosting company now to find out - I am using Heart Internet: here is a sample of my xml file....thanks so much for replying :-) I thought it might be to do with server environment as wokring perfectly on multiple local computers etc....
Here is some of the xml code: i see some ISO mention at the top? Not too sure about what you mentioned regarding CDATA....but it appears in the xml below (I bought template and then just edited the text to change so didnt actually rite the code so please excuse my lack of technical knowledge- I am trying lol

IPod Shuffle works on one Windows computer, but not another

My shuffle shows a full list of songs from my music library in the contents window. However, when I restore it, it still shows the same list in the contents window. When I try to play the shuffle, I get flashing green and amber lights.
I can restore the shuffle and add songs to it on another computer and it plays properly, but then when I go back to the original computer, it still shows the full list in contents, not just the couple of songs that should be there.
I can't seem to be able to restore it from my original computer either. I run the restore, but the same list shows in contents. I have also tried selecting all songs and deleting them and then restoring, but no luck.
Is there some sort of conflict going on? The original computer is a network computer. Does that have anything to do with it? Both computers have the same version of iPod and iTunes installed.
Dell Precision 360 Windows XP Pro

Johnston,
Try creating a numerical indicator (or cluster indicator, etc.) on the front panel of your program of the data being fed to the graph. This will allow you to see the numerical values being fed to the graph itself while the program is running. Let us know what you find.

Just can't get Airport Express to configure: it worked at my mum's, but not at home!

Hello helpful people,
I am really hoping someone can think of what's going wrong with my set up. I keep getting an error message "an unexpected error occurred, please try again" when i try to do my configuration. I only want it to stream music from my ipad to my stereo. I would really prefer to do the set up only using an ipad, if at all possible.
I was given a shiny new Airport Express for Christmas. As i was staying at my mum's for two weeks, I plugged it into her stereo, and got it working. This was configured to join her existing wifi network, using only my iPad to set it up. The airport utility software was not used, as i didn't know it existed. All worked fine.
It looks as if my router is running WEP. So i gather i need airport utility to configure it. Airport utility says it can't detect a base station anywhere, even when inches away. There don't seem to be any options to get it to work differently.
I have reset and factory reset the device many times.
Some level of wireless access must be working on it, as it appears on my wireless list as a possible "set up airport express base station"
I go through the menus to set it up in the same way as at my mum's: selecting my existing wifi network to add it into, setting up a new base station password, and then watching and waiting.
Among the different resets and re-attempts i have done, it varies slightly in behaviour: the last time it failed it didn't get as far as asking for my wifi password.
After the error message i can't "try again" as suggested. It wipes out my wifi access, so i need to delete my existing wifi network (on the ipad) and re-add it to get an internet connection back again. I need to do a reset to get the "configure new base station" message back.
The differences between the two houses:
The stereo connection is different in the two houses: single 3.5mm jack into mum's; 3.5mm jack split into two needed for our stereo. I know it says you need to plug into the stereo first (and I have), but surely the device doesn't care which cable i use?
At my house, the wireless router and airport box are within 4m of each other. At my mother's it's more like 20m.
My wireless router is from O2 (now Sky), my mother's is plusnet.

It looks as if my router is running WEP.
Virtually no security at all there, as there are numerous free utilities available on the Internet that will crack a WEP network in seconds. You might as well run the network wide open, since WEP offers about the same level of protection.
You will not be able to configure the Express using an iPhone, iPad, or any version of AirPort Utility that is 6.x or higher with your router set to use WEP "security". They will not work with WEP, since it is so long out of date and non-secure.
An older version of AirPort Utility 5.x might allow you to configure the Express using WEP security, but with no protection anyway, this would be of little value.
See if your router can be configured to use WPA2 Personal security or WPA/WPA2 Personal security. If it can, then you will be able to use an iPhone, iPad, or any version of AirPort Utility to configure the Express in just a few minutes.
If your router cannot be configured to use stronger current WPA settings, now might be a very good time to ask your service provider for a new router.

IPhone WIFI works on every other network but not my home network?

Im using an IPhone 3G and it seems that I can connect to every network but my home network. It says that I'm connected on my WIFI settings but then I'm still not able to access safari or anything else.
I have another Iphone and it works well with my home network and is able to connect. I checked the network settings for my Iphone and the IP address and subnet mask (for the same network) is different from the other Iphone. Plus, for the working iphone, it has the 'router, DNS, search domains' information all filled in, whereas for the iphone that isn't working, its all blank (only the IP adress and the subnet mask is entered)
Help?

Things to try (each of these has worked for someone, but none has worked for everyone)
Go into Airplane Mode for a couple of minutes
Reset network settings (Settings, General, Reset) and then reboot the phone (Home and Sleep together until the Apple logo appears
Reboot your wifi router
One person had success by forcing the router to reassign IP addresses
One or two people have had issues with DNS (which would stop you from finding web addresses), and solved them by resetting them in the router
Hope this helps

Lightbox works on computer but not on web...

Help!
I have used Lightbox2 and other lightboxes before, so I am a little used to how they work.
I wanted to not clutter my site any more than necessary, and so I left the Lightbox files in the original Lightbox2 folder; my files are outside the folder.
I corrected the links to the javascript and css files on my page.
The page previews correctly on my computer; but, when uploaded to the web, Lightbox2 does not work.
Why would Lightbox work correctly on my computer, but not on the web? Here is a link to one of the pages in question:
http://www.oldmanmountain.com/Pages/RackPages/RearRacks.html
Another question...Lightbox says we should check the links in the lightbox.js file to make sure the loading and close box links are correct. How do I point to these files? From the javascript file? or from the page file? I have tried everything and cannot get the close box to show on my computer (let alone on the web, where Lightbox doesn't seem to work at all).
Another reason for wanting the Lightbox files in their own folder is that I used to put the Lightbox files relative to the page that Lightbox was used on so I wouldn't have to change the links. I would rather have just one Lightbox folder for the entire site, and I would prefer to have it in its own folder. I posted this question on StackOverflow, but no one answered.
Thank you!

Hi,
in my IE8 your lightbox works (after a while of waiting) like this:
I only miss the both buttons: "closelabel.gif" and "loading.gif".

When fist setting up your new iphone you will be asked to log in with an apple id and password. If this did not happen you can then do as you suggested going to settings to itunes and app store and add your apple id login. This apple id login must have already been created for the iphone to accept it. If this apple id is already created but is not being accepted by your iphone you then should shut down your iphone and restart the device.
Good luck.

FCP3 to DVD (works on computer but not dvd player)

Hi all
I'm trying to export a wedding video from FCP3 to DVD using Toast 7. I can Burn a copy that works perfectly on any computer but skips horribly on DVD player, does anybody have any idea what I might be doing wrong?
thanks for your help
Brian

Toast is not the best vehicle to encode DVD material. You might do better with iDVD and you would definitely do better with DVD Studio Pro.

It works on my Computer, but not in my DVD Player

I burned a DVD, It works on my Computer, but not in my DVD Player...why?

still am trying to figure out how to burn at a slower speed, I see no optiond on iDVD.
You need to create a disk image out of iDVD, then burn. See below.
Suggest you create a disc image and then burn the DVD. File/Save as Disc Image...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/6.0/en/18.html
http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/image_to_diskstone.html
This will isolate any encoding/burning issues you may encounter. Once the disc image is created, double-click the .img and burn the virtual disc that should appear on your desktop, using Toast to burn the DVD. Disk Utility to burn the .img file. Usually, you can select a burning speed in Disk Utility.
There are variations to this process based on which OS X you are using...
Open Disk Utility (in Utilities folder in Applications folder), click on the virtual disc (maybe the .img) in the left-hand window. Click the Burn icon. A new window should drop down and your SuperDrive tray will open after clicking the Burn icon. Insert a recordable DVD. (Verbatim DVD-R preferred by me.) Click the Close button. Wait. Select a burn speed. If you hold your mouse cursor over the pop-up it says: "Select a slower speed to work around burn failures," so select 4x or slower for best results. Then click the Burn button.
-->If the virtual disk selection won't allow you to click the Burn icon, use the .img file instead. This may have changed in 10.3.9 and did change in Tiger.
Also, you can use DVD Player to play the virtual disk to check your iDVD project before burning to DVD. Launch DVD Player. File/Open VIDEO_TS (Open DVD Media... in Player 4.6). Find the VIDEO_TS folder and open that. (The audio folder is for DVD-Audio disks.)

HELP!! WRT54G2 works for one computer, but not for the other

I have a WRT54G2 and it is connected to 2 computers. The internet works in one computer, but not on the other. The tech support said i needed to configure it or firmware or something like that. But my product is out of warranty and I really need the internet on the other computer as well. Please Help!!!

As your one computer is working fine then there is no problem with the router so far...
The computer which is not working...check the IP Address on that...
Click Start >> All Programs >> Accessories >> Command Prompt...A black box will appear(Command Prompt)...In the Command Prompt window type ipconfig and press 'Enter'...Look for Ethernet Adapter Local Area Connection IP Address , Subnet Mask and Default Gateway...
IP Address should be 192.168.1.x, Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0, Default Gateway : 192.168.1.1 (assuming your router is 192.168.1.1)...
If you get the above mentioned IP Address, Subnet and Gateway Address then you should ping the Gateway, type ping 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...If it gives you request timed out then disable any firewalls, security softwares on the computer...
If you get 4 replies then type ping 4.2.2.2 and press Enter, if you get request timed out, then you need to upgrade your router's firmware...If you get 4 replies then type ping yahoo.com and press Enter...If you get replies for Yahoo then you should get the Internet after adjusting the browser settings...
Adjusting Browser Settings : Open an IE, click Tools >> Internet Options, then delete all files, cookies, history, forms...Goto "Connections", make sure Never Dial a Connection is checked, click on LAN Settings and make sure all the options are unchecked...Once you are done click on O.k...Close the IE and re-open it...
If yahoo times out then provide static DNS on your LAN Connection...
Click on the Start button >>> Settings >>> Control Panel >>>Network Connections- Right click on the icon for Local Area Connection and go to properties- On the 'General' tab select 'Internet Protocol TCP/IP' and click on the Properties button- Select 'Use the Following DNS Settings' Preferred DNS 4.2.2.2 Alternate DNS - 192.168.1.1>>Click on Ok button to Save and Click on "Close" on main Properties window...You should be able to go online...

Its is showing the wrong email... I can sign in on my computer but not the phone

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If it isn't showing up at all, it means that Find My Phone hasn't been activated.
If it's just the location that isn't showing up, it may well mean it isn't connected to a network at this time.
