I am using an iMac with OS 10.5.6, Safari is 3.2.1, Firefox is 3.0.11. I had considered downloading a newer version of Safari but I don't want to install Snow Leopard so I don't know what version of Safari to get.

I have restarted and deleted cookies and still no joy. Have not yet tried a different user account yet. How do I repair permissions? One of the bad??? things about the Mac is that you don't have to fiddle "under the bonnet" very often, so you forget how and where to fix things!!

Hi Peter,

You don't say what versions of Safari & Firefox you are using.
Make sure you have installed all the latest updates for both Safari & Firefox.
And you have the latest updates for Java.

Then repair permissions:

As your problem is happening on both browsers, it is some setting or update required on your Mac.

Do you have Java & JavaScript enabled on both Browsers?
Have you tried in a different User Account?

Cheers,
Ronni

Hi Peter,
I just tried it using Safari on my iMac and it worked fine.

You have to actual do a reload of the site (right click/reload) as the temporary files on your system could be sned you the can't find the site message.

I have been regularly using the site www.woodworkforums.com for a couple of years and on Saturday I could not log on to it. I still can't logon with Safari or Firefox, but I can get any other site. I have emailed the woodwork administrator who assures me all is OK at their end, and I can access the site using the PC here which is networked to my Mac. The ISP told me to enter the DNS details into the Mac but that hasn't worked.

Any ideas??
