TP access problems

I wasn't able to get online yesterday. I'm currently posting from my iPad which is difficult because of the small text and lack of the ability to use some tools . I can't get on with my iMac atall.

Yesterday, I clicked on my iMac TP icon and there was a 'ripple' along the top bar and nothing. This morning I tried my iMac again and got this message. "This connection is not private .This website may be impersonating Talkphotography". I tried a different route via Google and got this message. "Forbidden. You don't have permission to access this resource'. I've been writing down the. various responses.

I went to Google just now to check a name whilst posting in the Iran thread and wasn't able to,initially, get back. This message appeareed. " Ooops..we ran into some problens". The set out of the website/forums was in a column.No forum headings. I had to try again via Google and got back in.

This has happened a couple of times over the past month but I eventually got on so didn't post in this thread.

I'll go through my Safari preferences to make sure they're all correct . I've deleted caches. Google results come up with.."Re a trusted website the cause can commonly be stricter security settings,cached security certificates,brower extensions..?? on the iMac." I have a list of favourite websites..eg nature, aircraft (Mach Loop for instance) .and they all respond. No problems.

Any suggestions please ?

I’ve been having similar problems over the last day or so, too, and more occasionally over the last couple of weeks - access forbidden messages, or what looks like CSS style sheets not loading when the content did load.

This was with current version of Apple Safari on current macOS and iOS too iirc.

I have been getting, you don't have permissions to do this and other strange things.

There is another thread running about this
