    There is a much faster method from OSX Terminal. To delete lines containing apple.com and create a bak file with the original entries containing apple.com, triple click on each of the following lines and Copy (Command+C) and Paste (Command+V) and post the screen output.

     

         sed -e'/apple.com/d' -i bak /private/etc/hosts

         sdiff /private/etc/hosts /private/etc/hostsbak

     

    If there are no issues, next step would be to repeat these steps for /etc/hosts file, as follows

     

         sudo sed -e'/apple.com/d' -i bak /etc/hosts

         sudo sdiff /private/etc/hosts /etc/hostsbak

     

    Here is my test with a copy of /private/etc/hosts

     

    $ sed -e'/apple.com/d' -i bak test_hosts

    $ cat test_hosts

     

    ##

    # Host Database

    #

    # localhost is used to configure the loopback interface

    # when the system is booting.  Do not change this entry.

    ##

    127.0.0.1 localhost

    255.255.255.255 broadcasthost

    ::1             localhost

    fe80::1%lo0 localhost

     

     

    $ cat test_hostsbak

    ##

    # Host Database

    #

    # localhost is used to configure the loopback interface

    # when the system is booting.  Do not change this entry.

    ##

    127.0.0.1 localhost

    255.255.255.255 broadcasthost

    ::1             localhost

    fe80::1%lo0 localhost
