Can't connect to server. Help!!!
Hi everybody. I know there has been similar posts, and I have tried some of the solutions offered but nothing seems to work for me.
Mail receives only some of the actual messages on the server and it can't send messages (.Mac), get notice:
Cannot send message using server smtp.mac.com
Any suggestions would be great.
Thanks
Emilio
Emilio,
Welcome to the Discussions.
Do you have an account set up with your ISP? If so, you might be able to use the SMTP provided by your ISP, instead of the smtp.mac.com.
However, if your ISP is merely blocking the use of Port 25 (as many now do), try changing the Port to 587. See:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=166743
More info, please.

Network library printer can't 'connect to server', help?!
I recently upgraded to Yosemite and tried printing as usual from the cloud printing at my library.
Usually it holds for authentication and I enter my university username and password.
However, this time it just says 'cannot connect to server' and then pauses the print job.
I reinstalled the printer but nothing changed.
Can anyone help?!Hello there, LydiaMayPorter.
Great job so far in troubleshooting the issue on your own. The following Knowledge Base article offers a very thorough resource with additional steps for troubleshooting printing issues in Mac OS X Yosemite:

I am not able to sign in. I am getting a message saying Apple TV can't connect to server at this time. Please try again.
I use the same Apple ID and password as I do with iTunes and have no problems accessing that.
Can someone help me?Unpower it. If it still happens on a restart give it time - Apple's servers sometimes have glitches.

Hi Kellyssi,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you're being asked repeatedly to check terms and conditions, try restarting and then resetting your iPhone:

Safari has stopped opening certain webpages and says can't connect to server... This started 3 months ago with FB and now randomly with another site... all other sites are fine.. Help?
I've tried resetting safari, deleting all webpage data and setting time/date to automatic, but no such luck.
The message that comes up is: "Safari can't establish a secure connection to the server 'Facebook' "
I'd be genuinely impressed if anyone were to actually work out what was wrong.Hi ..
Might be a cookies, cache, or extensions issue.
From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
Click: Remove All Website Data
Then delete the cache.
Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that doesn't help, troubleshoot Safari extensions.
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall. -

I can't update my Ipod. When I check for updates it says "can't connect to server" despite internet connection being fine. When I receive a software update message;I say install and it starts updating then stops after 2 seconds. Help! (It is a 3rd gen IPod touch(I think)). Presumably as a result of this, I have tried to put my library onto my gf's new iPod touch and it just charges it..doesn't download my library onto the touch).
Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem -
Outgoing mail can't connect to server after update
I updated my iphone and ipad and desktop when the new update came out. My email works only on my iphone and ipad. My computer recieves messages, but can not send them. It says it is "offline" and "can't connect to server" uggggh. This has been going on for at least a month now. I called Time Warner Cable and they basically said they could not help me.
PLEASE HELP!!!Hello,
Who is your eMail provider, the part after the @ sign?
In Mail's Window Menu, choose Connection Doctor, any red dots for status, if so what is the message?
Then click the Show Details button & Check again. -
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!
Thanks a million for your help! -
Can't connect to server on certain web pages
I can only open certain web pages for some reason. The ones I can't open says can't connect to server. Don't get it. Help please
I can type anything into google and press search and I can only go to 3 of those pages, the others will say cant connect to server. Same with pictures, I google something, anything, go to images and half the pictures will be question marks and then the others I click on may or may not have server connection.

"Can't connect to server" Error
I'm using a 24" iMac running 10.6.7 and I keep getting a "can't connect to server" error with Safari for certain websites. While I could have posted this topic under the Safari section, the problem is not Safari. I tested other web browsers on my iMac (Firefox and IE) and still got an error. I did all the trouble shooting like: empty cache, reset safari, cookies, proxies, /index.html. Now, I was thinking it could be my router, but I am able to access those websites through my iPhone and my iPhone is connected to my wireless router. So I figured the problem is with my iMac settings.

Can't connect to server to accept terms/conditons
after upgrading to ios 7, icloud is not working on iphone 4S—asks me to accept terms and conditions, but then says "can't connect to server" to do so.
Tried turing off and on, any others having this issue?
ThanksFeel so foolish. After deleting as you suggest, I realized that the mail I'm reading on my iPad is, in fact, the mail from the cloud. I was expecting an iCloud web page like I see on my computer. Apparently, that's not the case. If I've been receiving email on my iPad, then I'm already setup properly.
Thanks for you help anyway .. -
Safari can't connect to server problem (just one website)
After I upgraded my mac about a week ago, I can't open a particular website using my home wifi (Safari can't connect to server) It lets me open page but one, which happens to be my mail website. However, when I use a public wifi, I can open that website without any problem. Any ideas why this happens?
Linc.
I have been unable to connect to specific random favorite sites and tried your posts suggestion
"Boot into Recovery mode. From the OS X Utilities screen, select Get Help Online. A clean copy of Safari will launch. No plugins, such as Flash, will be available. While in Recovery, you'll have no access to your saved bookmarks or passwords, so make a note of those before you begin, if they're needed for the test.
Test. After testing, reboot as usual and post the results."
I was able to connect to all my unavailable sites. Can you help me discover what is preventing my access when not in Recovery mode. I Made the Safari preferences match the recovery mode Safari preferences so that doesn't seem to be the problem.
I ran EtreCheck
These are the results
