Bugsy Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 this is weird.Trying to log into Anglo Info (don't ask) on my desktop Mac and it comes up with "Server Error 403 access denied"Try it on my Macbook connected via WiFi to the same system and it logs in as normal.Ideas in simple english please.

Théière Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Have you thoroughly checked the web addresses are the same on both machines, you may be trying to log into a page that's been moved etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubbles Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Funny you should mention Anglo Info.That is one of my regular websites.At one stage I was having problems logging on to it.The problem only seemed to affect Anglo Info, Amazon and (I'm ashamed to say) Mindjolt Games on Facebook.Our internet provider did some serious tweaking (whatever that means) and it is fine now.And - yes - I am using a MacBook without Wifi connection.Not sure that is any help to you whatsoever but it does seem to be a bit of a coincidence.

Bugsy Posted March 22, 2011 Author Share Posted March 22, 2011 The addresses are identical, set as 'bookmarks' and, until today worked fine.I've also tried to connect to their site independently but if you choose 'france' the error 403 appears, if you choose 'UK' it enters fine. Wierd or what.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnOther Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Wot, MAC users having problems, surely not, what is the world coming to [:-))] [:D][:D][:D]On a good old Windows machine I would suggest flushing the DNS cache but as I know less than squat about MACs I have no idea how you would, or could, do that or even if it would work.

Quillan Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Do you use a proxy server (like for I Player etc), if so try turning it off and see what happens.You can get this with Windows PC's and its quite easy to fix. Macs on the other hand, I don't have a clue either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugsy Posted March 22, 2011 Author Share Posted March 22, 2011 Edit:Sorted, emptying the cache didn't do it but just resetting Safari worked. I've lost a few passwords despite un-ticking that box but I've got them all written down somewhere.time for a cup of tea, i think.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
