Why does a specific website say validating and doesn't open the site for me?

why does a specific website say validating and doesnt open the site?

My Safari also has a hiccup. My ISP (comcast) helped me by suggesting I try the same task using a different browser (firefox). I had both installed, and firefox completed the task smoothly with no issues. I was told the problem was on my end and my safari browser was most likely flawed. I cannot find the procedure to uninstall & reinstall the Safari app. My iMac came with 2 discs (os & bundled apps) But the ability to choose Safari only, for this task remains illusive. Any suggestions or fixes to repair a glitch infected Safari will be appreciated.

    why does my sound icon grey out and doesn't allow me to make changes on the system settings

    When you go to System Preferences > Sound what does it say for Output? Have you had headphones plugged in? Sometimes the headphone jack gets stuck thinking it has something plugged in when there isn't anaything there. SMC also has something to do with Sound:
    SMC RESET

    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
    Wait 15 seconds.
    Attach the computers power cable.
    Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
    The 5 second timing is important to a successful reset.

  • Whenever I go to iTunes with my iPod 5th generation 32 gb iPod Touch, running iOS 8.0.2, It tells me that the "Other" category is using up 14.59 gb of data. I have no clue why it says this and I have searched the internet for fixes and none worked.

    Whenever I go to iTunes with my iPod 5th generation 32 gb iPod Touch, running iOS 8.0.2, It tells me that the "Other" category is using up 14.59 gb of data. I have no clue why it says this and I have searched the internet for fixes and none worked. I have tried on a windows and a mac and noticed no change. I have tried restoring to a backup but that didn't help. I haven't had time to do a full restore but I will try if the problem persists.

    An "other" larger than about 1 1/2 GB indicates corrupted files.

    Next, usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.

    Help, I had aperture open and working on a image and did not have a battery in and bumped the power off. As a result it will not open my master, it is locked. when I try to open that Library  it says There was an error opening the database for the library. I have tried every thing. I updated the other libr but now it will not open the main to update. What do I do?

    Try starting Aperture with the command and option keys held down.  You'll get 3 options.
    Try each, starting at the top, in order, checking after each to see if it fixes the issue.

    I just bought aperture and downloaded it from app store. when I try to open the app I get a warning message that says: There was an error opening the database for the library “~/Pictures/Aperture Library.aplibrary”. The only option the is to quit. What is wrong?

    Hi,
    not sure what the problem might be, but you can try the following:
    While pressing ALT+CMD on the keyboard, click on the Aperture icon in the dock: Aperture then opens in a special "recovery mode", and you're prompted to choose what kind of repair you need: Repair Permissions / Repair Database / Rebuild Database
    Considering the situation, I'd recommend you to try "the "Repair Permissions" option first.
    If that isn't enough (and it may well be the case), then go straight for the "Rebuild Database" option; it's a non-destructive opration anyway, but since you've just installed Aperture you shouldn't have anything valuable in the default library...
    NOTE: if you do have some pictures in the library, instead, do a backup first! Time Machine is your friend
    Another option would be to launch Aperture while keeping only the ALT (option) key pressed: Aperture will ask you what library you want to open, or you can choose to create a new one from scratch.
    Good luck!
    Corrado

  • When opening aperture I get Warning that says There was an error opening the database for the library "~/Desktop/Feb 12, 2011.aplibrary".  I'm concerned that my pictures may be lost.  Does anyone know how to deal with this Warning?

    When opening Aperture I get Warning that says "There was an error opening the database for the library “~/Desktop/Feb 12, 2011.aplibrary.”  That's it. The program does not open at all.  I'm concerned that my pictures may be lost.  Does anyone know how to deal with this Warning? 

    Might just need to rebuild the library...see this link:

  • Why does my Ipad keep going black and then back to the apple logo.  It eventually goes to the start page but then blacks out again.  I have already rebooted several times with no luck!!

    Why does my Ipad 2 keep going black ahd back to the apple logo.  It eventually goes to the home screen and allows me to try something else but after about 30 seconds it happens again.  I have already rebooted several times? 

    Make Sure iOS is updated to the latest version
    Reboot the device by pressing and holding down the home and sleep/wake buttons (power) at the same time until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
    If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings

  • Why does my email inbox say I have unread messages, when I know for a fact that I don't?

    I know it probably shouldn't bother me, but I can't stand the little red figure notification bubble on my apps. Therefore, I always read all of my emails and update my apps on time to avoid any red bubbles. Yet, what i don't understand is why my mail app is saying I have new mail even when I don't. The first time this has happened was when I upgraded to ios7 and I'm not okay with that. I had hoped that when I bought the new iphone it would go away, but it hasn't. Has anyone else had this problem too?

    I phone is said to be example : 16 gb so it shows it as such.  Your computer detects the true storage capacity as being example:  15.1 gb.  Not every device is the same.  They don't all hold 16 gb.  It's just a rough estimate as to how much is in that device.  That could be where he difference lies

  • Why does my mail have blue dots and won't open? My Internet is okay.

    My Internet seems to be working fine.  I have blue dots in front of each mail message and the messages won't send.  Help.

    If you can't open the messages or send emails, you can try quitting the mail app completely as well.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Tap the screen above the task bar.
    Then go back and try mail again.

    Hi,
    What application you are printing from?
    Ensure the proper printer is selected.
    Google Chrome as example defaults to Save as PDF and not to the HP printer, till clicking on Change button and selecting the printer.

  • In the previous version of Firefox I could close the window and still have my tabs intact when I reopened it. Why does FF 4 closes all tabs and doesn't give me an option to save them? (And if it does, where do I change the setting?)

    In the previous version of Firefox, before closing a window with tabs still open, it asked if I would like to "save and close", "close all tabs" or "cancel" the operation. FF4 will just alert me that I am closing those tabs and ask me is I want to continue, without giving the option to save my research for a later use.

    Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically.<br />
    You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session.<br />
    There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default <b>about:home</b> Home page.<br />
    Another possibility is to use:
    *Tools > Options > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time"
