Many thanks, problem solved.
Does anyone know why cached data would cause too many redirects?
I have just purchased a new Mac Air and have immediately had the problem with webpage failure "Too Many Redirects" . This applies to almost all web addresses including apple.com so I cannot use the internet at all.
I have tried the solution set out and it does NOT work at all. I am at a loss to know what to do next except to return the new MacAir to Apple and ask for my money back.
Any suggestions would be most welcome.
