Won't connect to one website

I have a  2009 Mac Book Pro. Last couple of days, our internet connection has been slow. Today, it crashes for awhile and when it returns, I cant get the one website I need to load on any of my browsers (Chrome, Safari, Firefox). I cleared caches, restarted, all for nothing. And, my wife's computer, 3 feet away, same IP address, connects just fine. Any ideas? I'm not entirely sure this is a Mac issue but I'm stumped. Every other website (including other sites I manage on the same server) loads fine.

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, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or 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.

  • Problem connecting to one website, tracert shows timeout at 7 & 8

    Hi all, So I am having issues connecting to one website. Everytime I run tracert it shows a similar timeout. I am not sure what is causing this. My web browsing otherwise is great.

    Hi, Thanks for the reply. I've tried contacting the host and they are telling me it's an issue with my isp. I can access the website with no problems from other devices just not on my pc when I go through my comcast connection. I have been having this issue for a few days now. I will try to contact the host again. Is there anything I can do to prove that it is an issue with the host? Thanks

  • Can't connect to one website

    My airport extreme n is preventing access to one specific website, for an educational institution.
    I have confirmed that the problem is the router by plugging my computer directly into the modem and accessing the website.
    I have tried restoring factory default settings but the problem persists.
    Help! I need to access this website!
    I am running OS10.6; I could imagine a problem in the interaction between my software and the router, but, as I said, I can connect to the website by bypassing the router, so the router is involved somehow.

    yeah I see that traceroute.  Now if a proxy allows you in, then what is happening is that website has blocked the ip address you have in your router.   You may be able to call VZ tech support and have them break the lease on the ip address (you can use that verbiage) And then reboot the router, and you may get a new IP Address.   The new ip address won't be blocked by the website just like it isn't blocking the ip address from the proxy.    
    You can also try you're luck with rebooting the router, and trying to get a new ip, chances are it will grab the same ip address, or if you really don't want to call Verizon, you can leave the router unplugged for about 5-30 minutes, and then when you turn it back on, your hope is that it gets a new ip on it's own. 
    So verizon isn't technically blocking it, because if it was you would be blocked 100% from getting there, but the site can impose blocks to certain ip's or blocks of ips, and it sounds like they have blocked the ip that you have. 

  • Won't connect to one specific page

    My airport express 802.11n firmware 7.4.1 won't connect to www.clubepeugeot.com
    tried everything:
    -IP
    -firmware
    -DNS
    if a connect the cable modem directly to my macbook i can surf the webpage. Using the aiport all other pages seem to work except this one...

    Try visiting http://67.210.120.128 (the IP address of that URL). If you can reach the Web site, there's something wrong with the DSN services that your Mac and/or AirPort Express are using.
    How is the Express configured? What do you see in "DNS Server(s)" in the Internet panel, "TCP/IP" tab?

  • My macbook pro won't connect to one of my internet connections, it did in the past but not now. Can't be resolved with airport diagnostics. Help would be appreciated

    I have tried so many times to resolve the problem and I have no idea what's up. I disconnected my modem and all of a sudden my macbook won't connect ever since. The only way to get on is to use an ethernet cable.

    have you tried telling your computer to forget the network and then trying to reconnect it that way?

  • Firefox won't connect to any website, but other browsers will.

    When I enter something in the URL bar -- google.com, localhost, http://127.0.0.1/ an IP address, there's a split second flash, then the bar becomes empty again and nothing has happened. It looks like Firefox isn't even trying to connect to the internet.
    Yesterday, all was well when I was running FF on Windows 7. After the upgrade to Windows 8 Pro, Firefox failed. I upgraded again to Windows 8.1, hoping for the best, but it's the same problem.
    I have walked through the firewall issue, several times (the only one running is Windows' built-in firewall). I eventually uninstalled Firefox, including all my custom settings, and reinstalled from scratch, twice. And even this pure, clean version of Firefox will not connect to the internet.
    I'm a computer-literate web developer and would be happy to look at log files, or run some tool (Fiddler?) to see what's happening at a low level, if only I knew where to look.

    Others with similar problems please look at the article
    * [[Firefox can't load websites but other browsers can]]
    MM..,
    mm... That just about sums up my thought on reading your question. Rather odd this one. I will list some brief ideas and number them to make them easier to refer to or comment on.
    Obviously this does not affect all Firefox 27 on Windows 8. It must be something fairly specific to your setup. I have no idea what your problem is and you have tried some of the obvious troubleshooting steps.
    Rather a general shotgun approach but the best I can do is suggest this list
    # Clean Install <br />Presumably you will have tried deleting the program path files in order to get a clean install.<br /> [[Troubleshoot and diagnose Firefox problems#w_5-reinstall-firefox]]_5-reinstall-firefox <br />(See also note about ESR install)
    # Firefox SafeMode will also have been tried <br /> [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]] <br />Remembering to disable or uninstall plugins, safemode does not do that.
    # Try a new clean additional test Profile. <br /> [[Use the Profile Manager to create and remove Firefox profiles#w_creating-a-profile]]_creating-a-profile
    #Windows Safe Mode
    # Install and try Firefox ESR <br /> http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/
    #* As a developer you are probably interested in using that anyhow. <br /> Either a customised install as an additional browser <br /> http://kb.mozillazine.org/Testing_pre-release_versions#Installing_multiple_versions <br />Or use the unofficial Firefox portable. http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox-portable-esr
    #* Helps rule out: Firefox code or feature regressions, Corrupted program files
    #* Should quickly enable you to see a working Firefox again

  • TS3276 Mail 6.0 won't connect to one of my accounts, only since upgrade to OSX 7

    My Mail account fails to connect and it prompts me for my password which fails to resolve the problem.  This has only occurred since my upgrade to OS X 10.7.  I have verified all of the accccount settings (by comparing them to my iPad Mail account setting which still works).  Is there a glitch in Mail 6.0?  I have a 2011 MPB 15" 2.0 GHz 4/500 with Snow Leopard.  Thanks.

    I'm sorry if I sounded glib or insulting to you.  That was not my intent.  Ssince I initiated this inquiry I have shut off my MBP, left it alone for about 3 hours and when I returnned to it, it worked fine. 
    As for the test procedure, The top light was green (Connected to internet), the second line was red ( comcast.net unable to connect to this server) the third light was green (iCloud connection and login succesful) and the last line was red (smtp.comcast.com could not login to server).
    I hope I haven't wasted your time but this has been occurring to me intermittently since I upgraded to OS 10.8.
    I appreciate your time.

  • Ichat won't connect with one computer; others fine

    I was able to video iChat with my parents (new intel iMac, X.5.2) with no problems previously. Now, we cannot video or audio chat. The interesting thing is that I can video chat with others and my parents can video chat with others, just not with each other. We were even able to video chat via a 3-way chat a few days ago that a third party initiated and invited us both in. But if we try to chat with each other, no connection. IMing works, but that is it. I have checked that no users are blocked on both computers. Since both computers have internet access and iChat capability with other computers, I don't think it has to do with firewalls!?! Both computers use WideOpenWest cable as their ISP. Another user that my parents can iChat with is also a WideOpenWest customer. Weird! Any thoughts? Thanks!

    Hi
    First have you all set the Quicktime streaming setting, goto sys prefs/quicktime/streaming/streaming speed, set to 1.5mbps(
    In ichats prefs click on video and change bandwidth limit to 500.
    Restart iChat.

  • Mail won't connect to one

    In the last day Mail will not connect to my Comcast mail account (but it will connect to a different account I have). I have double-checked my settings and everything looks as it should. I have tried the Safe Boot and deleting the two files from the Library as suggested in other posts, but with no positive results. Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    I don't if these issues are related, but I'm also having trouble accessing secure web sites with Safari:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2041491&tstart=0
    I am able to access these same sites via Firefox.

    Hi Bryon, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    On the Safari problem, (since I don't go there often I'll try answering here).
    Open System Preferences>Network>Configure>Proxies Tab, make sure none are set, like for HTTPS, especially.
    Mulling the Mail problem until I hear on Safari problem!

  • Mail won't connect on one mac w/ lion

    mail works on all my computers except my macbook pro. It did for a while and now suddenly won't  This is the error message I get:

    Mail is working now. I edited the outgoing mail server list to delete and re-enter my smtp.att.yahoo.com setting and associated password, etc. (as suggested in the "Can't send mail via mail" thread). That may be what did the trick. But also, this time I was more patient when waiting for my test email to send. I had forgotten how long this can take. If you see the "sending" indicator spinning, go read a book or have dinner. The send will complete while you aren't sitting there watching. After the first success, subsequent outgoing mail will go with little delay.

  • FaceTime won't connect to one specific contact.

    I'm having trouble with FaceTime.
    I was able to FaceTime my girlfriend 3 nights ago and it worked perfectly fine. After about half an hour however it cut off and ever since then I haven't been able to connect to her. She tells me that she is able to FaceTime all of her other contacts but as soon as she goes to FaceTime me it doesn't work.
    The call comes through but when either of us click answer, it stops at connecting and after so long says "so and so is not currently available to FaceTime".
    Does anyone know what is causing this problem and how it could be solved?

  • Firefox won't connect to internet but IE will!!

    I'm using latest edition of Firefox on windows 07 laptop. Two days ago my internet connection slowed significantly (i was only one) for few hours but then things got to normal. My computer updated (windows) last night and when tried to turn on firefox it won't connect or load website pages. First it said errror in my connection, now message says 'the connection has timed out'. I have done everything stated on firefox support (checked proxy - am on college network so it was on auto and I switched it to no proxy - no luck), I checked my firewall (managed by mcafee) and even though windows is not being used on my laptop I added firefox just in case - no luck. I did the other steps on the page - no luck. IE is working fine and at reasonable speed so it's not the connection.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
    Edit: don't know if this may help but googlechrome won't work for me either - it opens, and tries to connect to page but never does. . .

    [[https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Cannot%20connect%20after%20upgrading%20Firefox?s=cannot+connect+after+upgrading+firefox&as=s]]
    For me the problem was McAfee Security Center running on Windows 7. I reset McAfee and Firefox connected again.

  • Airport express won't connect to cisco EA4500 network

    So we had two airport's working nicely on an older Belkin wireless router, now I upgraded to the Cisco EA4500 dual band, and it won't connect.  One airport is only two years old.  I can reconfigure the settings for the new network but then it won't reset after saving settings thru airport utility.  I get a 6753 error message that it didn't reset.  After this, the computer will no longer recognize the airport, and I have to unplug the airport to get the computer to recognize it again.  Any thoughts?

    Hi Ata,
    ...Right now I've setup a new wireless network for my AirPort Express but ideally I would like to have it join my existing network
    If you already configured your AirPort to create a separate wireless network, it would be best to reconfigure it to "join" your existing network by starting over with a "hard reset": Press and hold the reset button and keep it depressed, continuously, about five to ten seconds, long enough for it to flash amber. Then, it will glow amber steadily for about a minute while it starts up, then it will flash amber slowly indicating it needs to be configured.
    It will then appear in your Mac's Wi-Fi menu like this:
    Select it. AirPort Utility will load and walk you through its configuration.
    Be sure to select the option to "join" your existing network, and not create a new one. In that configuration, it will serve as a device for music streaming only, and cannot serve a wireless access point. For that, your router would need to be a genuine Apple AirPort Base Station.

  • G4 (MDD) with AirPort Can't See/Won't Connect to Wireless Networks

    Hi all. I've seen topics/threads that get close to my question/problem, but not quite.
    I inherited a PowerMac G4 (MDD)/Dual 1 GHz/1.5 GB DDR SDRAM/running 10.3.9.
    I purchased a used original AirPort card from eBay, opened up the machine, and plugged it in. When I went to update the software (from a CD), my machine told me that it was up to date (though one HD is running OS9 and one running OSX -- so the software wouldn't install because the HD running OSX said it was up-to-date and the HD running 9 said it was impossible). The machine recognizes the card/shows it gray in the toolbar/says it has Firmware Version 8.70 in the System Profile.
    My problem is that the AirPort can't see any wireless networks 99% of the time, even though 3 (including mine) are in range all the time. I've seen my network only flicker into possibility a few times, and even though I've disabled all security measures on the wireless router (Linksys Wireless-G, Model WRT54G), it simply won't connect. One time in 3 hours it momentarily looked like it was going to connect, then said "out of range," then disappeared completely. It has seen 0 wireless networks for the past hour.
    I've read everything far and wide trying to solve this issue and am totally stuck. At first I thought I needed an antenna for the AirPort, but this is an internal card, so that doesn't seem right. I know the AirPort card (and not Extreme) is right because a) I don't have a FW800 port and b) the machine recognizes this card. Finally, I thought it may have had to do with the WPA security on the Linksys, but even with security disabled...nothing.
    I'm feeling very frustrated. Any advice?
    Thank you very much.

    Thanks, Tom. I did as you suggested, and the Max Signal under the Log is showing a red 12, which is terrible, yes? What, exactly, does this tell me? That this is simply a case of old technology (AirPort b) struggling to communicate with new technology (Linksys g) over a medium distance (Linksys is in next room, through wall)? If plugging straight into the ethernet were an option, I'd just do it. But I can't get my G4 onto the Internet without running cords down the hallway and through my TV room, which is an obvious eyesore.
    Is there a chance this AirPort card is only partly functional and I should return it? Or do I need to accept the fact that this G4 needs to either be moved closer to the Linksys router or be plugged in directly?
    Thank you.
