Why do I keep getting "403 - Forbidden: Access is denied." with Firefox but not IE?

Having created a search for a word definition via google.com, (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=definition+Disbursement&btnG=Google+Search&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq= ) 
I selected a couple of the resultant links:

If I run the same routine in IE v8 I can view both pages – no problem? 
Thanks for your assistance

Uninstall and reinstall the software and try again.
Sometimes what occurs is third party software will keep records of what is what on your drive and since you restored from TimeMachine it might have moved things around thus causing the crash.
Also check with the developer that they are updated to work with 10.8.4 as its a recent release.
TimeMachine restores work, it's just they haven't been all that reliable at restoring verses a bootable clones.
Most commonly used backup methods
Also OnyX cache cleaning (free) also has been a heck of a lot more reliable and with more frequent updates.

Now our friend Thomas might not have figured out why your restoring + using a cache cleaner, but I do.
IMO your better off using a virtual machine operating system that runs in a window on OS X.
VirtualBox is FREE, and Linux Mint is also FREE and the most newbie friendly to install, includes Flash etc., so it works on sites. When your done surfing, you revert to the last saved "Snapshot" of the guest operating system (Linux) and all your troubles are gone in seconds.
Windows in BootCamp or Virtual Machine?
Keeping Windows in a VM free of malware
I don't have a specific User Tip how to setup Linux in VirtualBox, but will likely do so eventually. It's not hard actually.
Good Luck

Why am I getting this message: 403 - Forbidden: Access is denied. You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied?

I just tried to access a website that I regularly access several times a day. However, this evening I received the following message: 403 - Forbidden: Access is denied.
You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied.
I have never seen this before, and have no idea what it means, or how to access the site. Does it have anything to do with my security settings? Help. I belong to the site, and need to access it.

Do you need to login to access that website?

When I login to my bank, I get the message: 403 - Forbidden: Access is denied. You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied. Have new MacBook Air with Yosemite. How to solve this problem?

When I try to login to the website of my bank, I get the following error message:
403 - Forbidden: Access is denied.
You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied.
I have a new MacBook Air with OS Yosemite installed.
What is the problem and how can I solve it?

Some websites require a special client certficate for access. If you don't have that certficate, you'll have to contact the site operator to find out how to get one.
Sometimes the problem is caused by a web server that is configured to request an optional client certificate. Safari treats the request as mandatory. In that case, other browsers such as Firefox and Chrome may be able to connect to the site, because they ignore the request.
The first time you were prompted for a certificate, you may have clicked through a dialog that requested access to the Apple certificate in your keychain that is used to secure the iMessage service. In that case, you may be able to regain access to the site in Safari by doing as follows.
Back up all data.
Double-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
com.apple.idms.appleid.prd
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the Keychain Access 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 Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Paste into the search field in the Keychain Access window by clicking in it and pressing the key combination command-V. An item may appear in the list of keychain items. The Name will begin with string you searched for, and the Kind will be "certificate."
Delete the item by selecting it and pressing the delete key. It will be recreated automatically the next time you launch the Messages or FaceTime application.
The next time you visit a site that prompts for an optional client certificate, cancel out of the prompt. You may have to do this several times before the server stops asking.

Test of html5 video on website server get 403 - Forbidden: Access is denied

I have been experimenting with html 5 with help from Wyodor to play videos on any browser and hopefully iphone without using Flash. Had it working on my local browsers but wanted to upload it to my website to test it on IE and iphone. But after uploading it, when I went ot the url, I got the error message . . .
403 - Forbidden: Access is denied.
You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied.
I am very neo to html. Really haven't a clue what I'm doing. I'm dangerous in the worst sense of the word. But I am determined that this 60 year old brain is going to conquer this. . .but I need help.
What would be causing this Error? Do you need to see the code to answer that?. . . Cliff

The error usually occurs when the url has no pagename and the folder/directory has no default index.html file in it.
http://www.yourdomain.com/folder/
You can prevent it by using the full URL to the page or renaming the page you want to display to index.html .
See it that helps.
And in Safari, open the Activity window (Command-Option-A) to see what and where the browser is looking for.

I got this message when trying to checkout from a site store:
403 - Forbidden: Access is denied.

Any ideas how can I solve it?

Ask the people running the store; that error generally means that you tried to do something they don't allow or something's wrong on their end.

Hi,
I`d like to get your advice on Server Error 403 - Forbidden: Access is denied. I use to visit a webpage with no issues so far but now i getting this error each time i`m trying to get into. Any ideas in how to solve it? A step to step process will be highly appreciated.
Thanks.
PS, I`m using the latest safari 8.0.3 and OS X 10.10.2.

It's an error message from the web server, not from Safari. There's a slight chance that you might be able to clear it as follows.
From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data...
and confirm. Test.

Why do I need to hit Zoom In 6 times with Firefox but not with Intermet Explorer?

I have Windows 7 Home Edition on Dell Inspiron computer.
When using Firefox, every screen comes up so small I have to zoom in 6 times, whereas I have no such problem with Internet Explorer at the same websites, pc settings, etc.
I have tried changing things under 'Tools', but to no avail.
Under such conditions, I favor using IE instead of Firefox. Both browsers are of latest version: Firefox 7.0.1; IE 9.0.8112.

BizTalk exposed WCF 403 - Forbidden: Access is denied WCF

Im using BizTalk server 2010.cretaed Certificate in IIS and shared to client the same as a public cert.
Im using httpsTransport with customBinding.followed below url
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/bizintegration1/archive/2011/08/23/exposing-biztalk-orchestration-as-a-wcf-service-over-ssl.aspx
When I try to Browse in BizTalk server with https, im able to browse, but in the client side, they are not able to browse
and they get "403 - Forbidden: Access is denied. You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied." Is there anythng that needs to be set in BizTalk or the settings should be done at the client end?
IIS autehntification mode is anonymous is configued.plz let me know anything to do in biztalk and IIS level
Regards BizTalkWorship

This is because your client has not provided the certificate while browsing the service URL.
If they (client) have installed the certificate in correct folder and then while browsing folder the service, client should provide the certificate through browser.
For Internet Explorer, a pop-up should with all the certificates
installed in their personal store. They need to select the certificate that they already installed in it.
Look into this article (from
On the client side: section onwards) for how to browse the service from IE by providing the certificate.
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/asiatech/archive/2014/02/13/how-to-configure-iis-client-certificate-mapping-authentication-for-iis7.aspx
Note: Above article is just relavant to you from
On the client side: section onwards i.e for instructing your client to use certificate while browsing.
FireFox
You will get an error that says “HTTP Error 403.7 – Forbidden” “The page you are attempting to access requires your browser to have a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)
client certificate that the Web server recognizes.”
In
FireFox go to Tools –> Options –> Advanced –> Encryption –> View Certificates
Click import and select the certificate with private key file you exported earlier (the .pfx file)
You will need to clear history now or restart browser
Just FYI for installing certifate correctly in client side, if they use Windows (off-course):
MMC, add certificate snap-in for “current user”
Browse to Certificates (Current User) –> Personal –> Certificates
Right click this node and select All Tasks and Import from the popup menu
Follow the steps in the wizard, selecting the public certificate you have shared o client.

Select certificate - 403 Forbidden: Access is denied in Safari

Safari is asking to 'Select Certificate' for a website.
It shows two certificates the old one which expired in Feb last year and the current one which is set to expire in 3011!
Regardless which one you choose it comes back with....
Server Error
403 - Forbidden: Access is denied.
You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied.
p.s. This is the current version on Windows Vista and have replicated it on another computer. Have tried uninstalling (and deleteing all Apple's hidden updaters/helpers and all folders in the setting/program files areas). Then re-installed and exactly the same problem comes back.
Tried it on a Mac too with the same problem.
The website is www.amplicon.com and the certificate is issued by 'COMODO CA Limited'

Your right, it works fine from my home. Just tried it on the Mac here. But it was a client that first informed us of the problem and trying it from the office on both Mac and PC Safari fialed but all other browsers were fine.
At the office everything is synced to the network time clock, and I can tell you we would know if the time was wrong...
But as it was fialing on both the Mac and PC versions in the same building it seems like it's not a OS issue, maybe it's our DNS server or something on the windows network that Safari is not dealing with that well, but other browsers seem to have no problems with.
We did change SSL supplier recently, maybe it's only a problem with browsers that have had the old and new certificate running in the browser.
I would just think it was an internal issue, but as it was reported by a regular client it is obviously replicable in more than one location.
Is there any hidden places Safari hides the certificate info that would not get removed when you uninstall Safari? Like in the registry or in windows somewhere, if so is there a way to clear it. Or could it be getting it from a cache somewhere on the network?
It's not really a big issue as we don't have many Safari users, but we do like to make sure Safari is supported and works on the site.

I keep getting the same dialogue box upon opening Firefox but don't know what to do about it

I keep getting the same dialogue box upon opening Firefox but don't know what to do about it "Could not initialise the application's security component. The most probable cause is problems with files in your browser's profile directory. Please check that this directory has no read/write restrictions and your hard drive is not full or close to full. It is recommended that you exit the browser and fix the problem. If you continue to use this browser session, you might see incorrect browser behaviour when accessing security features." I have gone to tools - general tab - browse files - but it wont let me browse or set a place to staore files. Any ideas?

Why does the FP 10 work with firefox but not with IE8

I down loaded the folowing for xp FP uninstall, FP plugin and FP debug from the link in one of your replys. now I can watch youtube with firefox but not with IE8. you asked me before if i was using 16 bit. whats that mean and how do I find out? please help I just want to watch youtube on IE!

Ok Shag, since you hadn't been on a Forum before, then I'll take some of what I said back:-) I wanted you to stay on one thread, you can get in trouble trying things that may cause you more problems than you had in the beginning. I just had your best interest at heart
I'll even overlook your all caps here:-) At least you responded
Now since you say you fixed it, what you should do is to confirm it is fixed by taking a look at your Flash folder. This contains all of the Flash files for IE and FF. Then make sure you have the IE add on and the FF add on. That way if you have any future problems, at least you would know it is not the Flash Player.
You should only have 2 .exe files for IE and 1 for FF.
For Video editing, I would check Microsoft and see what they have. Perhaps someone else will come along with other info for you.
No, I don't get paid here, since I am not an employee. Just a user helping others, since I had a problem at one time and after 4 hours of researching solved it.
Let me know if you want to check the Flash files.
Thanks,
eidnolb
