Cannot connect to local Webserver IPAD

I got a local test environment which runs IIS 7.0. I can call the local webserver from PC's via http://demo-pc/ and get the website to show. If I use the same URL on the IPad or IPhone or IPod Touch I get an error "address is not available". I tried installing the Opera browser on the IPad and still get the same problem.
Is there a solution to the problem. I saw some solution postings related to macbooks, but nothing on the iOS so far.

You need to use the fully qualified domain name of your server with your iPad. Your Windows systems work without an FQDN because they can resolve the Active Directory (or Workgroup) name, but the iPad cannot. This may also happen with Mac OS X systems unless they're bound to the AD domain.

  • Cannot connect airport express to ipad I keep receiving the message: "an unexpected error occurred" when I try to connect my Ipad to my airport express.  Does anyone have a solution?

    cannot connect airport express to ipad
    I keep receiving the message: "an unexpected error occurred" when I try to connect my Ipad to my airport express.  Does anyone have a solution?

    I could not "see" my Express via my wireless router or via the Airport Utility until I reset it to Factory Settings by unplugging it then holding in the tiny reset button while plugging it back in, waiting for the flashing yellow LED signal before letting go.
    Then I set it up to DHCP - "connect to wireless network" and DOWNGRADED the firmware to 7.3.x
    I would tell you the exact Firmware but I can no longer "see" the Airport express............ AGAIN or still.....
    BUT at least I am listening to music streaming from my MacBook Pro... Hmmm.
    I log back into the router (Linksys WRT110) and it no longer shows the Airport Express as a DHCP client AND the Airport utility can no longer "find" any Airport Devices..
    So if I don't move, or there are no cosmic events, or maybe my KARMA is effecting the device or my "VIBES" are good, but I'm not sure if will continue to work.. Sure would like to use this little device from hel*.
    Since I have had this Airport Express I have spent many hours trying to get it to work.
    It works just long enough to fool me and then takes a dump...
    Maybe this time?
    5 Minute later...
    Music was playing. I went into iTunes and switched from Airtunes to Computer speakers. When I tried to switch it back GUESS WHAT?
    [An unknown error (-15006) occurred while trying to connect to remote speaker "Airtunes"]
    Wonderful Green LED though. Totally useless piece of equipment AFAIK.

  • Cannot Connect to local host

    from the xserv where i am setting up a website i cannot access local host which is preventing me from setting up phpmyadmin config file. I open safari and type in http://localhost/ and i get the error message cannot connect to local host. I can access the server using the ip (no domain setup yet). I am a novice at setting up web serves in the mac/apache environment so i may have missed a simple step somewhere. Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    No expert here, but have you tried http://127.0.0.1 ?
    Might get better help in the xserve, or Server forums here.

  • ITunes cannot connect to Internet and iPad backup takes Forever

    Hi, I have a workstation, high end Windows 7, PC, everything works perfect except the iTunes.. here's my story:
    iTunes cannot connect to internet, nor can iTunes Store. I tried "Run Diagnostics" from Help menu, it showed "internet connection verified" green light BUT "Secure link to iTunes Store Failed" Red Light.
    Then I thought, lets check other Apple App, Safari.. which couldn't load google for a long time and didn't even show any error, anyway, so I quit and uninstalled it.
    I connected iPad for backup, it started all fine. At "Step 2 of 7" backing up, the loading/copying bar came half way up and stayed there for more than 20 hours. So, I quit that too. (Maybe, this is a different problem or connected, im not sure.)
    I also checked the setting in Norton Firewall and made sure iTunes was allowed full access. Internet is working perfect in all the other applications, even "Apple Software Update" is working fine, checking for updates and everything. I have latest version of iTunes by the way.
    THEN, I uninstalled everything Apple, left no trace of Apple in Program Files, and reinstalled iTunes. STILL SAME PROBLEM!!! Can anybody help? What could've happened, 'coz it used to work just fine before.
    Thanks Guys!

    start itunes.
    update podcasts - no response.
    click on store - no response.
    use diagnostics for connectivity - no response.
    sometimes, when i stop itunes from trying to connect, i will get an error code 11222

  • Cannot connect to YouTube on iPad 2

    After upgrading to iOS 5, my iPad 2 seemed fine, but the next day I suddenly got "cannot connect to YouTube" when using the YouTube app.
    Other iOS devices on the same wifi LAN connected fine. The iPad had been fine for a day after upgrading.
    I looked at all the (many) threads with the same problem, I followed all the suggested fixes, nothing worked.
    Enabling restrictions, disabling the YouTube app so that the icon vanished allowed Safari on the iPad to connect to the YouTube sites, but most of these require Flash and we all know the story there...
    I fixed the problem by backing up the iPad 2, doing a complete restore to factory settings and then a restore from that backup, all from iTunes on the Mac. Problem solved, YouTube app working again.

    Are you trying to connect over WiFi? Or cellular? Does this happen on all networks or just certain ones?
    And, just for my edification, what is "Twitch"?

  • RD Gateway Manager cannot connect to local server

    Hi,
    I've come across a problem today where I'm unable to connect to our locally hosted RD Gateway server. We have one Server 2012 R2 machine with the Remote Desktop Services installed. The system was setup following the configuration wizard in Remote Desktop
    Services section of Server Manager. One of our users has gone to connect to the main remote app hosted by this setup and received an expired certificate error. No problem I thought, checked the certificate on the server and it does indeed expire today. I'll
    re-issue a self signed certificate through the RD Gateway Manager and all should be ok. On loading the RD Gateway Manager, clicking Connect to RD Gateway Server and selecting Local Server I get the following error.
    "The RD Gateway Manager snap-in console cannot connect to the server "SERVER" because it is not a RD Gateway server."
    I've checked that the services for remote desktop are running which they are, and I can connect to the server using standard RDP remote desktop.  Any ideas on where to go next to solve this problem?
    Rob

    Hi Rob,
    It seems the issue related to certificate as can’t properly configured. You need to import the certificate and store in local computer/personal store. Please check below article and verify the steps for certificate and other related setting,
    RDS: The RD Gateway server must be configured to use a valid SSL certificate

    Hope it helps!

  • 'cannot connect to itunes' on ipad 3, help?

    As soon as I type in my password and ID in settings I get the message 'Cannot connect to iTunes Store'. Same thing when I go straight through the itunes app. I have followed the advice about setting the date to a year in the future to no avail. It just won't accept my password and ID even though they are fine on my Mac and iphone and I have everything in icloud. Baffled! Help Please???

    Sign out, power your iPad off and back on again and then try signing in again.

  • Cannot connect to internet on ipad mini need to use 'other network' please help

    cannot connect to internet need another network as haven't password

    The Other Network option is so you can connect to a Wi-Fi hotspot that might have its name hidden.  Other Network gives you the oppertunity to type the name of the hidden Wi-Fi hotspot so the iPad can see it.
    If you are looking for a Wi-Fi hotspot to join, but can not because you do not have the password to join that network, you will need to ask the hotspot's owner for permission and a password before you can join.
    If you have internet in your house and you want to connect your iPad Mini to the internet, you will need a wireless router or access point.  Ask your internet provider, they may already have that available for you and it would be a quick setup for them. 
    Good luck,

  • I cannot connect to wireless from Ipad when I could 2 days ago.  Still can connect to same wireless from other PC.  What settings do I need to check?

    I recently cannot connect to my neighbors wireless with my Ipad.  I can connect with my PC.  I feel like I have shanged a setting by accident but do not know where to start to correct this.  I have the password to the account.

    Are you receiving the signal? Do you see the white "fan" WiFi indicator in the upper left corner of the iPad screen?
    Go to Settings>WiFi> and see if the network name is showing on the iPad. If the name is showing, you can try this ...
    Tap on the network name, then tap on the blue arrow next to the network name and then tap Forget this Network. Restart your iPad then go to the settings again, tap WiFi - tap on the network name - enter the password and see if you can connect again.
    Normally I would suggest unplugging the router for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again, but this is your neighbor's WiFi? Does he know you are using his WiFi access? If so, what a great guy!
    Here is how to restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • TS1368 cannot connect to iTunes on ipad

    Hi, I get the cannot connect to iTunes Store message, then it asks me to retry, re enter my password, gives the error message again... And we go round an round in circles. My settings are otherwise up to date

    Hi TiaMonster,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you can't connect to the iTunes Store and you're repeatedly asked for a password, first try signing out:
    Tap Settings > iTunes & App Store, then tap the Apple ID signed in.
    Choose Sign Out from the menu that appears.
    Restart your iPad next:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    After your iPad restarts, tap the iTunes Store icon. You should be able to browse the iTunes Store even if you are not signed in.
    If you still receive a "Can't connect to the iTunes Store" message, be sure to try these troubleshooting steps from the article above (TS1368):
    Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
    Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
    Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
    Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
    Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
    Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
    Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
    Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
    Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
    If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.
    Once you can connect to the iTunes Store, sign back in from Settings > iTunes & App Store.
    Best Regards,
    Jeremy

  • Cannot connect to iCloud from iPad or Apple TV

    I have iTunes Match enabled on my iPad. Mac and iPhone, but presently the iPad and the Apple TV say they cannot connect? Any ideas

    I have had the same problem too for about the past week.  I have an ipad 2 and I reset the firmware back to ios 5.0.1 and hard reset the ipad many times to no avail.  Funny thing is, youtube, apps to buy and any other internet connection works perfectly.  It just won't let me update any of my apps.  Up to about 34 or more now that haven't been updated on my ipad 2.  Everytime I try to update my apps it says: Can't connect to iTunes store.
    I'm hoping it is because of the holidays and the apple servers are having an ovecrowding or some other isolated problem.  If not, I will set an appointment at the genius bar at the apple store.  But I have already asked some of the workers there and they say they have not heard of such a problem.  I don't know what to do. 
    Peace.
