Apple's Web Site

[gigi]

hi,
Am i the only person having problems with www.apple.com. None of the images download, i have tried in 3 different browsers.

working fine for me? are you sure you are only having the peoblem at apple?

 

[gigi]

Yes....it is just apple....every other site i have visited loads fine....

strange. i even went and loaded some pages i never visit for you just to make sure i wasn't loading cached images. i have no idea what to tell you since this is happening in multiple browsers.

here are some screen shot from 4 browsers...mozilla. IE, icab and opera.
i wonder if it has something to do with "akamai.net"...this is where the images seem to come from....the html loads fine....

i suppose it's possible that they have some sort of block on your isp or something. or perhaps someone assigned to your current address. i wonder if it continues after you disconnect and reconnect.

Ed,
thanks for being my trouble shooting buddy
it is working fine in mac os 9...BTW 9 is really really fast (havent booted into 9 in months)
could have been that ip thing ...i have a dynamic ip.
its late here 12.48....so i will leave it alone until tomorrow, and hope it is fixed

no problem, glad you got it to work somehow. next boot back to osx should give more clues.
