  • Safari and Firefox both not loading any pages yet i am connected to the int

    Safari and Firefox both not loading any pages yet when i run diagnostics it says i am connected to the internet... any ideas???

    I am having the same problem. My airport says i'm connected with full bars but when i click on safari it takes a few minutes then says i'm not connected to the server. Now the kicker is i have a magicjack and you need internet to run it and that works fine... also i can access my itunes store which also requires internet. I can only run safari with the ethernet cable connected. That is how i'm connected now.. any ideas what it might be.. i have reset safari, emptied the cache, renewed the DHCP lease.. and all of the obvious... Please anyone help..oh p.s. my iphone picks up the wireless so it is working.. HELP......

  • My Safari 7.0 is not loading any page

    I don't know what I did wrong. My Safari 7.0 is not loading any page. The software start normaly yet when I put an internet address the aplication only shows a blank image.
    I don know if there is a way to re-install the application.
    Firefox and Google Chrome are working fine.
    Thanks in advance for your attention and support.
    Regards,

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
    If you wish, you may be able to salvage the errant extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.

  • Safari opens but will not load the page after I erased my hard drive and reinstalled yosemite. Anyone have a solution? I have to restart for safari to open and load.

    Hi everyone.
    I recently erased and reinstalled Yosemite on my iMac 27 (model late 2013). After I reinstalled everything i've noticed that when it goes to sleep/nap and when I come back to it and open the browser (safari) it will not load. I have to restart the whole iMac for it to work. I've erased and reinstalled again and I still have the same issues. Can anybody help?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • When I open Firefox, why does it take so long for my home page (which is aol) to load?

    Really nothing more to say, it just takes so long to open my home page I get annoyed and close it out. Please help cause I really like Firefox and it worked alot faster when I first installed it.

    Reset the homepage to something else, or do not use a home page at all.
    See [[How to set the home page]]

  • Will not load home page

    (1) My home page is set to: http://www.google.com/ig?source=gama&hl=en. My firefox startup option is ShowMyHomePage.
    (2) When I first start up firefox, my home page will not load, and I keep getting the firefox support page. Note: As of a few days ago, the firefox support page also has a broken link.
    (3) When I manually click on the firefox HOME icon, my home page is loaded correctly.

  • Why does my ipad repeatedly return to the home page

    My first generation ipad mysteriously returns from apps to the home page without warning.  Can't seem to figure out what is causing this.  Sometimes after I reset the ipad it will be OK for  a while but starts again soon.

    Try closing all apps and then reboot the iPad.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent 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 of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    This might help for Safari as well. Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data.

  • Why does iPhoto 9.6 upgrade not load

    I have been unable to download IPhoto 9.6 since upgrading to Yosemite, now running v.10.10.1.
    I found this "solution" on line.
    Solution to grey apple id box
    Quote: 
    Originally Posted by Burnsey

    I called apple support since I had this same exact problem after upgrading. http://www.apple.com/support/ My problem was that I have a MACBOOK PRO that i had bought used from someone else and they had iPhoto included on the Mac. When updates came out I could never update it since the previous owner owned it and when I tried to update it a box popped up and said to sign-in with a GREY APPLE ID BOX pre-filled with the previous owners id (email.) I don't know his password or have contact with him. I updated to Yosemite and to be up to date with the software iPhoto NEEDED to be updated (iPhoto app had a circle with a line through it.) I called apple support and they told me I needed to purchase it through my apple id in order to get access back to the application and to my hundreds of photos. 
    1. Go to finder on the top right and type in "applications" and enter. 2. Look for the iPhoto application logo. 3. Click and drag the logo to the trash in on the bottom right on your mac. (Don't worry your files/photos won't be deleted we are just replacing the application.) 4. Now empty your trash by clicking on to the "trash bin" icon and on the top right you will see "empty" click that. 5. go to the app store and sign out from your account. (go to the top left and click on "store" and click sign-out) of course if you not signed in the first place you're fine. 6. Close the app store window. 7. Reopen window and type in on the top right search box: "iPhoto" and enter. 8. You will see the application and it should say "free" or some price. (for me it was free) once you click on that it says install and click that and then it says sign-in. 9. Put your apple id and password. (if it says its free you won't be paying but if it says a price you will be charged) just to let you know. 10. The application will start to download and you will be able to track its process in the "launchpad" (the app that is a rocketship.) 11. The download takes 5-10 minutes. 12. Click on the iPhoto app and you will see that it will load up. A box will pop up saying that it will need to be upgraded. Click on the button that says "upgrade." 13. It should load up in less than 5 minutes depending on how many photos you have in your library. 
    14. You will be ready to go! You might see that the icon for iPhoto has a circle and line through it but that is fine. Just exit out of iPhoto and click on it again.The icon should be replaced with the new look icon for iPhoto.
    I did as suggested and removed iPhoto from my applications folder, emptied trash, closed the App Store and searched for iPhoto.  The icon appeared and it informed me that it was downloading when in fact it is still "waiting" as has been the case since I first tried to download the new version.
    Can ANYONE please help?  I've tried everything else i can find and the above seemed to work for a number of others with the same problem, but not for me.
    Regards,

    Thank you Terence Devlin,  You're the second Devlin to further my skills!
    Your namesake Bruce Devlin helped improve my golf game many years ago thanks to his book, "Play like the Devil" if I remember the title correctly.  I applied his instructions to controlling my swing and my game improved greatly!  It's a pity he couldn't help my putting!
    Your advice enabled me to solve the problem, or so it seems.  iPhoto is downloading as I type.  Hopefully it continues this time.
    To assist others I'll expand on my experience in taking your advice.
    I first had to locate Launchpad.  It wasn't in my dock.  Spotlight didn't provide a result when I typed "launchpad" into the search window.
    A search of "where's launchpad on my mac" using Safari directed me to my Application folder and I dragged the icon onto my dock for future convenience.
    I then opened Launchpad and the Apps appeared.  iPhoto was greyed out (along with another whose purpose I can't recall.)
    I tried dragging the iPhoto icon to trash but Trash wouldn't accept the attempt at disposal.
    Another search of "deleting Apps from Launchpad" using Safari advised me to click and hold the cursor on an icon (or press the option key) until the icons all wriggle.  An appeared on the top left corner of the icons and when clicked a dialog box appeared and put the question "Do you want to remove the IPhoto App?"  I clicked yes and, lo and behold, the icon changed from grey to normal colour and lots of blinking stars flashed around the icon.  The flashing continued for several minutes so I clicked the again, answered the question again in the affirmative, and this time the App disappeared!
    I returned to the APP store, typed iPhoto in the search window and the iPhoto Apps appeared.  I selected "Get" and it started downloading.
    I hope my above dissertation on the procedure helps others like me who lack the knowledge on how to "cancel the download" as you simply put it.
    I appreciate the time and interest you've devoted to assisting me in this case, and many others in the past, judging by your Level 10 status and number of points.  It would be nice if you could convert them into dollars!
    Thanks again,

  • Why does safari 5.1.2 not keep me signed into any websites?

    I just got a new imac with lion and safari 5.1.2. Safari doesn't keep me signed in to any websites - such as my yahoo, facebook, etc... what settings do i need to change?

    Ok...  With Safari open, go to the menu bar top of your screen click Safari then from the drop down menu click Preferences then select the Autofill tab.
    Make sure User names and passwords is selected.
    When you navigate to a site and enter your user name and password you should be prompted to save that data to create a "kecyhain" for that site. Your keychains are located in /Applications/Utilities in Keychain Access.
