Why can't I access a website that I accessed just 10 minutes ago?

I was working in my online class tonight and decided to take a break. I logged out for 10 minutes and when I tried to log back in I keep getting a message that Firefox has "blocked" the site for security reasons. I have used Firefox to access my online classes for the past seven years and now all of a sudden the school's website is a "security risk"! If this problem is not resolved quickly, I have no alternative but to remove Firefox and use another browser.

You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
*Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
Clear the cache and remove cookies only from websites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

  • TS4213 Why can't iPhoto, Pages, Numbers, Keynote and iMovie access my iTunes Library files and Pages, Numbers, Keynote and iMovie access my iPhoto Library files now that I upgraded to '11?

    Why can't iPhoto, Pages, Numbers, Keynote and iMovie access my iTunes Library files and Pages, Numbers, Keynote and iMovie access my iPhoto Library files now that I upgraded to '11?
    Examples of what is going on:
    1. In Pages, Numbers & Keynote, when I go to the media browser the Audio section reads "Open iTunes to populate this list" even after iTunes has been opened, .xml file has been replaced/repaired, etc  AND Photo section reads "Open iPhoto to see photos from your iPhoto Library in this list" even after iPhoto Library has been replaced and new default library created.
    2. In iMovie, similar thing ... when I go to add photos or music to a movie the iTunes files aren't present and the iPhoto photos are missing with similar messages as in #1.
    3. In iPhoto, similar thing ... when I go to add music to a slideshow it says to "Open iTunes to populate this list".
    It is shocking to me that Apple would let something as simple as a pathway link to associated library files get this messed up on an upgrade, but what's even more surprising is that with the number of people who seem to be having this particular issue (and I can tell from all the research that I've done for weeks online that there are a lot of them) that there doesn't seem to be a single clear answer to fixing it anywhere on these community support forums.  Most of what I've seen is rehashed advice from outdated issues.  What I need is a simple answer to how do we get these programs to look for the correct location of the photo and music files because I sure can't seem to find any logical place to do that through the programs' preferences files or the system preferences window?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    P.S. Here's the details on the software/hardware:
    MacBook Pro
    Mac OS X
    Version 10.7.5
    2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    iTunes 11.0.4 (4)
    iPhoto '11 9.4.3 (720.91)
    iMovie '11 9.0.9 (1795)
    Keynote '09 5.3 (1170)
    Pages '09 4.3 (1048)
    Numbers '09 2.3 (554)

    I have the same problem on a new MacBook Pro. I have not been able to access the iTunes library from iPhoto since I got this computer. I looked in the Preferences file and deleted the com.apple.iApps.plist but there was no com.apple.iApps.lockfile so I just deleted the iAPPs.plist and rebooted the computer.  Still no iTunes available in iPhoto.
    All my music is in iTunes and plays. After reading the above I brought up Pages and I was able to access music and insert a track into a document.
    Do you have any suggestions.

    Safari 5.1.9 and Java 6 are the latest versions available for OS X 10.6.8. To upgrade any further you would need to upgrade to Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8.4) through the Mac App Store.

    Why can I not open up photos that are being text to me?

    Hey Uptogetdown,
    Check out the following article:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2755
    It is for troubleshooting issues with the Messages application on iOS devices, so I'd go through the steps listed and see if that resolves the issue.
    All the best,

  • Why can't I open a PDF that I emailed to my self

    Why can't I open a PDF that I emailed to my self

    OK. You mean that it has fillable form fields. Those will not open in the mail app or in iBooks.
    Download Adobe Reader in the App Store. It is free. Then go back to the mail app, tap on the PDF file to get the Open In window to pop up. When the Open In window pops up, select Adobe Reader. The PDF will open in Adobe Reader and be saved in there. You should be able to fill out the fields in the Adobe Reader app and then you can email it from there if needed.

    Where is the bookmarks stored?
    I Install the Firefox once again since I upgrade my computer.
    And I try to move the bookmarks from the old computer to the new one.
    But I can't find anyone of them.
    Is there any folder just like "favourite" to store the html file?
    I really want to find out the bookmarks because actually i can't remember all the website that are important to me~ URGENT!!!~THANKS~

    You can move file named places.sqlite from your old profile to the new one. It contains bookmarks and browsing history.
    Here's a knowledge base article about it: [[Recovering important data from an old profile]]
    If you don't care about saving your current bookmarks, you can skip creating new profile (Firefox does it by itself at first run anyway).
    I'd might suggest you to install addon https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2410/|Xmarks Bookmark and Password Sync]. It is a free web service which synchronizes bookmarks and (optionally) passwords with central server, and then to other computers, if you installed it on more. You may treat is as a backup too.

  • HT2729 Why can't I sync my flim That I have already bought from my iPhone to my iPad

    Why can't I sync my flim that I have already bought for my I phone4 to my new iPad 2

    I'm having the same issue and the books I'm wanting to sync are checked. It worked on previous audiobooks that I had. In fact, I just finished the two that I had loaded and want to load two more. I only keep two books (4 files) on the device to conserve space. I'm using an iPhone 4 with iOS 4.3.3. there is 3GB free on the iPhone and I don't get any errors when syncing. My music is syncing fine and the books that unchecked were removed from my phone.
    I just tried to resync with one of the books that had previously been on my phone. It will not reload on there either. Here's a screen shot of iTunes and below that is the screen shot from my phone after syncing. Thanks for any help.

    Your security questions do not match what I put in when I opened the account, why can't I get security questions that have my answers?

    From a Kappy  post
    The Three Best Alternatives for Security Questions and Rescue Mail
       1. Use Apple's Express Lane.
    Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the
    bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then
    'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Forgotten Apple
    ID security questions' and click 'Continue'. Please be patient waiting for the return
    phone call. It will come in time depending on how heavily the servers are being hit.
    2.  Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contact Apple support.
    3.  Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions.
    A substitute for using the security questions is to use 2-step verification:

  • Why can't we do the things that you can do on Mac iMovie on iOS iMovie

    I have an iPad 2 with iMovie installed onto it. I just want to know, why can't we do the things that you can do on the Mac version of iMovie on the iOS version? In the 2013/2014 Mac iMovie udate, they added templates from iOS onto Mac so why can't we get things like maps and globes, new texts, greenscreen and duplication (cloning)?

    Same reason you cannot surf the internet without a web browser.
    iTunes is the interface for the iTunes store just a Internet Explorer (or whatever) is the interface for the web.

  • Can't access a website that works for other people

    I am a Netzero dial-up user.
    I was browsing craigslist.com using Firefox, with several other tabs open at the same time, when the craigslist tab disconnected. No other tabs were effected. I tried to bring up craigslist after rebooting and I get:
    The connection has timed out
    The server at orangecounty.craigslist.org is taking too long to respond.
    The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
    If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.
    If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
    I asked a friend to try craigslist and he had no problem.
    I tried closing Firefox and used Google Chrome.
    I tried deleting the tab where craigslist had been resident, and opening on a different tab.
    I tried deleting cookies for www.craigslist.com - the last trick in my very limited trouble-shooting arsenal
    Same results with all. Why can't I access Craigslist, please?
    Thank-you,

  • I need to access a website that is not Netscape compatible. Where can I get a Firefox add-in that emulates Internet Explorer?

    Need software that makes Firefox act like Microsoft Internet Explorer so that I can get into a website that will not interact properly with Netscape, which is apparently used by Firefox.

    The following Add-on uses the Internet Explorer installed on your system to display a page in an IE tab in Firefox. There are several Add-ons to perform that function, but I have had the most success with the following:

  • Why can't I see a video that is on my ipad in an explorer window of my pc?

    Why can't see a video that is on my ipad when i use explorer on my pc

    You cannot normally directly access the file system on an iPad (or any other iDevice) from the PC or Mac like to view a video or listen to music. You'll have to connect the iPad to the PC using iTunes and sync the video to the PC to view it on the PC.

  • Why can't I buy a movie that I pre-ordered, with the iTunes card already redeemed?

    See, I bought an iTunes card the other day and redeemed it that same day. After doing so, I pre-ordered a movie that was expected to be released on the 18th of March(today). So I tried to purchase the movie I pre-ordered with the credit I redeemed from the iTunes card, but it is asking for my billing information. So I clicked on the link where it says "To redeem code, click here", and it asked me to enter a code. My concern is why can't I buy that movie I pre-ordered with I the money I have in my iTunes account?

    You didn't purchase the movie, you pre-ordered it. So the code works to put in the pre-order for the movie. So it's on hold, so to speak. Then when the movie comes out (and only then) are you actually billed, so you have to enter the code again in case you or someone else who has access to your computer used some -- perhaps too much of the credit in the meantime.
    If I use a regular credit card and pre-order something, oftentimes there is some kind of perk or extra included along with it for me in return for pre-ordering. Like an extra feature for example. I don't actually get billed until I actually get the movie and so it's kinda like that.
    Did you lose the code?
    If you did, I'm sorry, but you could call Apple & hopefully they will make things right.

  • I can't sign into a website that I used to sign in to. What give?

    I have a site that I used to sign into. I used the "remember this password" option, but something SNAFUed. Now I can't sign in. How can I clear this up so I can log in. I've cleared the cache. What other steps should I take?

    This issue can be caused by corrupted cookies or cookies that are blocked.

    If clearing cookies didn't help then it is possible that the cookies.sqlite file that stores the cookies got corrupted.
    *Rename (or delete) <b>cookies.sqlite</b> (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete other present cookies files like <b>cookies.sqlite-journal</b> in the Firefox profile folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.
