3GS - YouTube only plays through Safari, can't connect through e-mail links nor app icon. Fixable?

iPhone 3GS: YouTube only connects/plays through Safari but not through links in e-mail messages nor from the app icon. Fixable? Thanks.

Thanks for joining the discussion.
Although port 8443 is mosten quoted as correct port for CalDAV and CardDAV, port 8843 can be found both on Apple's website and other places:
see Technical Note 1649 to find port 8443 listed for iCal and port 8843 for Address Book
Mac OS X Lion Server for Dummies (sic) lists port 8843 on pages 236 and 238 but port 8443 in many other places
when you want to push iCal and Address Book information with Profile Manager, Profile Manager lists port 8443 for iCal but port 8843 for Address Book as default:
So I hope you understand I'm somewhat puzzled.
I did get the Address Book working for my Lion desktops with the all the necessary certificates as far as I know, just not for the iOS devices (iPhone and IpPad). iCal sharing from Lion Server works fine on both Lion and iOS devices.

Safari can't connect through proxy

I just installed OS X 10.5.6 on a new MBP and migrated my old 10.4.11 PB account. Now when I connect to a vpn and set a proxy to be used, every web access times out.
But this only happens with Safari! When I use the same settings in FireFox, I can perfectly access the web.
What also puzzles me is: When checking the proxy settings in terminal, I get a segmentation fault:
# networksetup -getwebproxy airport
Enabled: Yes
Server: proxy01.domain.secret.com
Port: 8080
Segmentation fault
Also when I telnet to proxy01.domain.secret.com on port 8080 and give it a HTTP command like
GET http://google.com/ HTTP/1.0
I get a proper response. But still Safari is not using the proxy.

I entered the proxy manually.
But in the meantime I got the slight suspicion that it might be vpnc that's causing the trouble.

Safari can't connect Youtube account

I did Mac software update To Safari 5.1 August 30, 2011 and started get tons of WebProcess pop ups and NOW Safari can't connect to my youtube account. Does anyone have the same problem and/or does anyone have a solution?
Thanks

I've been battling this for weeks, and just solved my issue about 5 minutes ago.
In my case, it was simply due to blocking Google-Analytics with Little Snitch. As soon as I unchecked the box, YouTube (and other affected sites) loaded fine again.

Safari Can't Connect To Proxy Server - Why?

I was using Safari with a proxy server on my Macbook Pro for the last week or so, because people who log ip addresses on places like LiveJournal etc annoy me and I'd rather not reveal all to whoever happens to be looking. It was all working fine, then suddenly when I went to use it this morning, Safari won't connect through a proxy server at all, no matter what I do. All I get is; +Safari can’t open the page “http://www.google.com/” because Safari can’t connect to the web proxy server (HTTP).+
I know the ip address I'm using is fine because it will work in Firefox, and not only that, Safari on my sister's Macbook will accept that same ip address and load webpages fine, so it's obviously something screwy over here. I hadn't touched settings or anything between using it yesterday and it not working today. I've even updated Safari to see if that's the problem. It's not, and I'm stuck as to why it's suddenly thrown a hissy fit.

Hello !
Does Software Update from Apple menu connect? If not
Go to:
System Preference > Network.
Click Advanced.
Click Proxies Tab on top.
In Configure Proxies box click up-down arrows for the pop-up window and select Manually.
In the pane that opens up make sure no box is checked, if checked uncheck it.
Click OK at the bottom of the window.
Click Apply at the bottom of the window.
Close System Preference.
Relaunch Safari. It should connect. This worked for me.
Firefox does not use the Proxy system Safari uses.

Internet connected according to Network Diagnostic but Safari can't connect

I just bought a new iMac in Australia yesterday; when I brought it back home and connected the ethernet cable to it I thought it would automatically connect to the internet as my other family members' Macs have in their homes, and as my old PC did.
Unfortunately it did not, so I bumbled through Network Setup in System Preferences with little idea of what I was doing and essentially hoped for a miracle. I copied the 'IP address', 'Router' address and 'Subnet mask' numbers over manually from my PC but that didn't work. I then selected 'Using DHCP' and it gave me a seemingly normal IP starting with 192.xxx.xxx.xxx and the same subnet mask. When I run 'Network Diagnostics' it says my internet connection appears to be working correctly, and there's green lights next to everything. But when I go to Safari and type in www.google.com it takes forever before finally telling me that "Safari can't connect as the server is not responding'.
I have scrolled through pages of this forum trying to find answers but I haven't yet. I tried changing the DNS addresses to the ones from OpenDNS but that didn't seem to work.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

What kind of connection do you have?
-DHCP, this assigns the IP automaticly
-PPPoE, you will have to enter the information from your ISP manually in rder to connect
If you copy the IP from another machine it will create an issue since IP´s are unique to for machine.
Can you verify you internet connection, just to make sure it actually works?
+you can connect with other machines?
- you have to look at the settings on you machine
+you can ping www.google.com from Network utility
- if you can you have a connection to the internet, there might be a problem with your DNS server
+you can connect with IP addresses but not the HTTP
- copy and paste googles IP into your web browser, if it connects you should contact you ISP or look for DNS trojans in your system
+what does network utility show of send errors and link speed.

Safari can't connect to server with parental controls on

I have one user with admin rights and one user plus guest with parental controls turned on. Recently when parental controls are turned on, I get 'safari can't connect to server' error. When I turn parental controls off again I can connect to the internet again. Why is this?

Hi and welcome....
Unfortunately, Parental Controls can only be enabled on a non admin account.
See if there's a proxy set up for Safari. From the Safari menu bar click Safari / Preferences then select the Advanced tab. Click "Change Settings" next to: Proxies.
That will launch System Preferences / Network - Proxies.
If there are any boxes checked under: Select a protocol to configure, deselect the box then click Ok.
Quit Safari (Command + Q) then relaunch Safari.
See if Safari can connect in a parental controlled user account.

Problem with Safari **Safari can't connect to the server**

My internet is working fine, but I keep having to refresh the page because I'm always getting "safari can't connect to the server". Same thing happens with different browsers. I've read a couple things online and unistalled everything that I think is causing the problem but it's still happening frequently. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Most school networks are closed networks. You can access their Intranet, with all the files and peripherals and everything, but you need to have a specific password or IP address to access any outside connection. I have an ibook G4 that's 3 years old. I used it in high-school to access AOL wirelessly. That was before closed and protected networks were prefered. It shouldn't matter if the school intranet is widows based or not. You need to access your own internet service sometimes in order to get any reaction. If you simply use safari, you might only be connecting to the schools intranet, which only links together the schools computers and keeps the system isolated. Also, you need to check your firewall settings, in fact, just turn off the firewall. The schools sytem is firewalled up the bum and you shouldn't get attacks anyway because you're running the mac os.
You might also try an alternative approach. Go into a computer lab, access one of the systems, then go to control panels and look up every connection you can find. Take down all of the info and then see which matches up with similar info on your mac. Then go to another pc and look up the same info again. Is it different? How? Then take that listing to the system administrator and show them. They may not know that a mac has a simpler interface than the pc, so you may have to do some prodding to get them to take a look. If they still tell you it wont work, you could try boot-camp or a virtualizer (to let you run windows alongside the mac os). If you use a virtualizer, you can get your own copy of windows and then share it's connection to the main system to the mac.

WRT150N v1.1: Can't connect through router, internet light isnt on

Recently there was a thunderstorm last week and it somehow shorted out my cable modem. (It was hooked up to a surge protector and still somehow got damaged..) The router seemed to be fine, however, after having replaced the modem, my desktop can't connect through to the internet nor my laptop on it's wifi. The internet only works when I direclty link the modem to my desktop/laptop.
I've tried unplugging the modem and router for 30 seconds then re-plugginging the modem, waiting for initialization, then booting up the router but i've found no luck in getting it working as it used to.. I searched up past posts, and the "Setting-Up a Linksys Router with Cable Internet Service" doesnt say what to do if the light for internet doesnt turn on.
Another odd thing the router does is that, for some reason, the 3rd port for ethernet is lit up when theres no cable in the port. I checked to see if the light would work in other ports when it was connected and it shows to work fine, just with the additional 3rd port constantly on.
I'm not sure if it helps, but after hooking up the router I pinged it and it responded with:
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>ping 192.168.1.1

Anyone know how I can get this router working again?

Hm, i didn't see any change in anything after completing the steps.. I just had my cable/internet provider service technician come over and take a look at it. Basically, he told me the modem is probably fried somewhere and said I should invest in getting a new router. Surge protectors are apparently just a pretty name for "a good way to blow out multiple expensive devices." So now I'm out to get a wrt160N

Safari can't connect to the server - still causing problems

Hi
I have read through several topics relating to this problem - but have yet to be able to resolve the issue. So apologies in advance if it has already been answered in one of the many threads.
I have 2 computers both working off the same broadband hub connection.
Both have the same version of the OS and the same version of Safari: OS 10.4.11 and Safari 4.0.4
I have checked that the network settings are the same and all parental control settings are the same.
The laptop will access sites that the desktop will not.
Can anyone shed some light as to why numerous sites I try to access on the iMac result in a Safari message "Safari can’t connect to the server".
Same applies when I attempt the same sites with Firefox.
I have emptied caches, resolved all font issues, addressed terminal and plists etc. etc. - all to no avail.
Help!!!

Adding Open DNS codes to your Network Preferences, should give good results in terms of speed-up as well as added security:
If you are using a single computer: Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu, and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' add the following two numbers:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
(You can also enter them if you click on Advanced and then DNS)
Sometimes reversing the order of the DNS numbers can be beneficial in cases where there is a long delay before web pages start to load, and then suddenly load at normal speed:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2296
If your computer is part of a network: please refer to this page: http://www.opendns.com/start/bestpractices/#yournetwork and follow the advice given.
You could also try these codes as well: 4.2.2.1 & 4.2.2.2
If you use a Router, make sure it has the latest firmware installed.

Why Safari can't connect to server on iPad2?

All of a sudden Safari can't connect to the server on my iPad2. I'm a novice and don't understand some of the terms used in some answers when I searched this subject. It's becoming very frustrating. I've only had the iPad for 3 weeks. Thanks for any help.

Hey Nana1048,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing connectivity issues with your iPad 2. The following resource may help to resolve your issue:
iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
1. Be sure you're in range of your Wi-Fi router (access point).
2. Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and on. If your W-Fi setting is dimmed, follow these steps.
3. Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and cable or DSL modem are connected to power, turned on, and connected to the Internet. If not, refer to your network administrator or Internet service provider (ISP) for assistance.
4. Restart your iOS device.
5. Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you're connected.
6. Tap and Forget this Network.
7. Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
          Note: You may need to enter your Wi-Fi password again if your network requires one.
8. Turn your Wi-Fi router off and on. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
9. Update your device to the latest version of software.
10. Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware. For AirPort Base Stations, install updates using the AirPort Utility.
Wi-Fi disconnects or signal strength is less than expected
1. Move closer to the Wi-Fi router (access point).
2. Check for sources of potential interference.
3. Remove any case, stand, or other accessories from your iOS device and see if signal strength improves.
4. Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Note: This will reset all network settings including
          - previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
          - recently used Bluetooth accessories
          - VPN and APN settings
Thanks,
Matt M.

Safari can't connect after latest Lion update

Just updated my software and now safari can't connect to websites. It connects for a bit then after awhile it will no longer connect. Firefox and Chrome are connecting fine so this is a safari only issue with the latest update.
Safari Version 5.1.5 (7534.55.3)
Quiting safari and restarting works for a little while then eventually 'can't connect to server' eventually appears. I'm going back to firefox until this is resolved.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.
Hi I have the same sort of problems I carried out the two tests and the problem appears to only be in my profile not in guest profile. Is there a cure?

Safari can't connect to any servers or webpages

Hi,
I have my internet running without issues. I use Firefox, and currently viewing this page and typing.
Also I can access an FTP server elsewhere in another country.
However when I open Safari, I can't seem to get on any websites with "Safari can't connect to the Server" no matter where I go.
I tried to go on Apple site to download Safari but only available version is the Snow Leopard.
Any idea how I can fix this problem?

Update your DNS to a known-good server, such as OpenDNS or Google DNS.
Reference Safari 5.0.1 or later: Slow or partial webpage ... - Support - Apple for more information.
If using known-good DNS doesn't resolve the issue, turn off plugins and extensions in Safari. Check to see if the issue persists. If it doesn't, then one of the plugins or extensions is causing the issue. Follow Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may ... - Support - Apple for more information.
If the issue is not resolved by addressing the DNS or add-ons, then start by emptying Safari caches. If that doesn't help, then reset Safari (note: you will lose auto fill contents, such as saved passwords, for example). If it still doesn't work, there are additional steps, but the DNS or add-ons are most likely the cause.

Safari Not Loading Web Pages (Safari can't connect to the server)

I'm seeing increasing problems with Safari being unable to connect to websites. When the problem starts to manifest itself you see the error:
Safari can't connect to the server.
Safari can't open the page.
Then you see the URL information. It is always seems to be sites that are trying to load HTTPS pages.
Clearing the cache and resetting Safari will make it go away temporarily, but it always comes back.
Note that when this happens you might happen to see something like this in the address bar:
file:///Applications/Safari.app/Contents/Resources/

I'm having the same problem, I can open safari but when I try to go to a website it just says "server stopped responding." I just updated to the new version and that's when it started happening, it was working find before the update. Any suggestions???

Almost constant "Safari can't connect to server"

Starting a few weeks ago, I have started getting regular error messages that "safari can't connect to server". It is getting really annoying! It also affects Firefox. I have made every change I know to with internet settings (Open DNS settings, etc..), but nothing works. I have contacted my DSL ISP and they cannot find any problems with my service, which makes sense as I have had the service for nearly 2 years and this problem has just started recently. Oh yeah...I upgraded to 10.4.8 about the same time this started. ANY SUGGESTIONS?
Thanks in advance!

Update....after installing "Cocktail" system utility software and running all the systems, guess what??????
No more issues! I'm not sure if it was the combination of the re-install and then the system utilities run....but I am back to surfing the web with ease!
