I am on the latest Firefox and I tried the advice for changing Avast preferences, and it must be for the older version because my version does not allow me to change anything pertaining to HTTP - there was an Ipv option. I use both Safari and Firefox. My computer does not allow me to go onto facebook and youtube - Answered by a verified Mac Support Specialist We use cookies to give you the best possible experience on our website.

This question already has an answer here:
- Why can't I browse the internet with Safari, but Chrome is working? 1 answer
A friend of mine asked me to help with his MacBook as Safari didn't load any site.
I connected to his computer using TeamViewer (so internet is basically working), and then did a ping on
Google.com
, which worked. His Mac runs on OSX 10.6.x (Snow Leopard) with Safari 5.x.
I've tried a few things including:
- PRAM reset
- Delete cookies and browser cache
- DNS flush
- Delete
cookies/cache/plist
in Library - Delete and reinstall Safari.app
Non working. I tried downloading Firefox using
curl
but that seems also not to work.
Any idea what could be wrong?

Is there any app such as Little Snitch that is installed? If so, it could be blocking browsers but not Team Viewer and not Mail.

What about putting Firefox or Chrome on a USB stick and just copying it via Finder? If they also do not work, I would suspect something more generally wrong, not Safari itself. Might have to use portable version of those apps.

UPDATE: What about any recently installed firewall software? Anything that might have installed a webfilter or a webfilter appliance that might sit between your Mac and the gateway? Is NAC enabled on the network, preventing you from getting out until you hit a specific site for authorization? Avast security for mac reviews.

Check the DNS server in network preferences for the network adapter you are trying to connect. Usually DNS server ip should be the same as the router ip address.

I encountered this issue (internet on Safari and App Store app not working), and rebooting my computer ended up resolving the problem for me.
