Hello everyone,

This is a problem that's been nagging me for months now. I usually check on forums and find solutions to my problems regarding the computer but this has been impossible to solve.

I got a latest gen MBPro 15'' which I bought in March this year. All is fine with it except google maps. Around some time in May or June, it decided that it won't be loading google maps. Safari, Firefox, Chrome, Opera... None of them loads google maps. Firefox loads the page but the map section shows gray blocks of grids (no pictures). Chrome and Opera loads the maps page but does not show any grid or picture. Safari on the other hand doesn't load anything, responds by saying failed to load the page. No page that starts with maps.google.com is working on my mac.

I also have Windows 7 installed to this computer and the browsers on that work fine with Google Maps. But I can't get the browsers on Mac Os X (Lion) open Google Maps. And believe me, I have Java script add on and its enabled. Also I have tried clearing cookies, history etc. This is quite an entrenched s@%&.

There are others who have encountered this and the answers they got were either not solving the issue, or the threads are so old (like 2007 or so) that the solution steps does not work today because of changed operating systems.

Help. I am begging.
