Cannot connect to server problem - Solved

I was having the same problem with Safari not connected to server, or server not found. IE wouldn't work either. Researching another problem (unable to connect with software update), I stumbled onto a possible solution. At least it worked for me. Going into System Pref, Network, Proxies, I unchecked everything under "Select a proxy server to configure". That solved my problem and now can access Safari and IE.

Cannot Connect to Server Problem!

This is the problem...
i have a wireless connection. i use BT Voyager 2091, as my wireless connection router. i have read these forums and have not yet Found the answer to my problems.
so, i have found the connection, the Itouch knows there is a connection present. But i try to go on to Safari, it can't find the Server, so it wont open the page.
so, i have tried many many things. Tell me, Where do start 1st to get this connection.
(also note i have tried many of the forum advice)
what can you do to help me?
any help, would be great, thank you.

Hi Justin,
The most common wifi connection problem is entering the password (router encryption code) incorrectly. This has to be 100% correct.
Otherwise, when you get the network name (SSID) displayed, select the arrow to the right. This will display the addressing info. Against DNS delete the first set of numbers (usually start with 10.) If there's no address numbering then then it's likely that the router isn't correctly setup. Check the manual.
Mike.

I cannot create a new business catalyst site with Dreamweaver CC 2014. The error message states that Dreamweaver cannot connect with server, try again later. How can I fix this problem?

I cannot create a new Business Catalyst site with Dreamweaver CC 2014 (Mac). The error message states that Dreamweaver cannot connect with server, try again later. In addition, I am also unable to load remotely a previously created Business Catalyst site as it says there is something wrong with my username or password. However when I put my password in and press test connection, it says it has connected successfully. What is going wrong and how can I fix this problem?
Thanks

Hi Ozy08,
Can you try the solutions mentioned in Re: Can't Login to Business Catalyst within Dreamweaver CS6?
If you still have problems, and you have a purchased version of DW CC, send me your Adobe ID, location, and contact details over a private message. Click my picture and use the message option.
Thanks,

Apple Mail Application Problems - Cannot connect to Server

Hello Apple Community.
For the past two days my Mail application on my iPad and MacBook do not. It is as if there is a problem with the internet but my internet it working fine. The app opens and loads and continues to load but then says it Cannot Connect to Server.
Is there any way to fix this problem. I do not have OSX Mavericks.
Please help.
Thanks

If the problem exists on two different devices (different operating systems), your router or ISP is probably the reason. Contact your ISP for help.

PI 7.11: Cannot connect to server using message server:...

Hello Guys,
we make the Application Management for a Customer PI System.
Scenario:
- the SAP Gui Connection to the ABAP Stack is routed via SAPRouter and Works fine.
SAP Gui -> our SAP Router -> VPN Box from Customer -> Firewall Customer -> ABAP Stack PI System
- WebAccess its working fine, the Customer use Webdispatcher on every PI Server...
Browser -> VPN Box from Customer -> Firewall Customer -> Java Stack (Port: 5xx00 btw. 81xx (Webdispatcher))
Problem:
Our Problem ist, we can not proceed the Integration Builder or the ESB, the Java Web Start works fine and open the Logon Screen Correctly -> but i fill the Logon Screen with my User name and Password and press Logon come the follwing Error:
"Cannot connect to server using message server: ms://<hostname>.<domain>:8134/P4"
In the Details from the Error Message:
"<hostname>.<domain>:53404 Reason: com.sap.engine.services.rmi_p4.P4IOException:
Cannot open connection to host: <IP-Adress of Central Instance> and Port: 53404"
The Customer says, the Firewall is open with the IP Adresses and P4 Port but i dont think so...
Can everybody help me, or have tips for me! I have checked a lot of OSS Messages (PI High Availabilty etc... its all correct on the System)
Sorry for my bad English
Best Regards,
Markus

Hi Markus,
did you check if the browser is using a proxy? (In this case your scenario unfortunately won't work).
P4-port should generally be routed via a proxy (described in the help.sap.com), but within the PI-Tools(JNLP) the proxy-usage is not implemented. There is even a SAP-note that describes how to check the JavaWebStart-Proxyconfiguration, but this won't help either.
If there is a proxy defined in the browser everything is working fine till you pass the logon-screen but even with the correct "javaws"-settings you won't be able to go on.
(This problem is pretty bad if you do have developers and the SAP-servers seperated because of security issues. I'm hoping that this malfunction will be solved with upcoming patches.)
Solution: Establish a connection without any proxy in between.
E.g.: a terminal server in the same network
It would be helpful to find more people with the same problem to force a fix from SAP for that.
If anyone else is having problems with this, please add a comment to this thread.
Best regards
Christian

HP ENVY 4500 Printer "Error. Cannot connect to Server"

Hey everybody,
I work in IT and have a client that recently purchased a HP Envy 4500 all-in-one. She called me to install it for her and I got it set up with no problems. After a few days she told me that her printer wouldn't scan. It was giving her this error message;
"Error. Cannot connect to Server. Check Server name and address."
She has this computer connected via USB and I have already reinstalled the driver and ran the HP Print and Scan Doctor with no success. I have tried a lot of other solutions that people have been posting with the same issue but none have worked. This has become a huge issue and I don't see HP trying to find a solution. If no soultion will fix this, then I will be returning this printer for her and getting something that works.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
bbritt91

Hi bbritt91,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I understand that you are getting a connection error message when trying to use the scan to email feature of your Envy 4500 printer.
To be able to use the scan to email feature the printer must be setup with web services which requires the printer to be connected to your wireless network with an active internet connection. I have included the Getting Started with ePrint document for reference.
If the printer has been setup with a wireless connection, please set a manual IP address and manual DNS server for the printer. I have included a link to another post with the steps, including screen shots, on how to do this. Please don’t worry that the screen shots are for a Photosmart 7510, the steps are the same.
Please let me know how it goes.
Regards,

MacBook Pro, iPad IV and iPhone 4S Cannot Connect to Server

I have a MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion 10.8.5, and an iPad IV, both less than three months old. I also have a pair of iPhone 4s's.
All of a sudden none of them can reliably connect to our AT&T Wireless home internet. There are particular websites we are blocked from viewing, notably any apple website, including apple.com, apple support, itunes, and App store, but also random ones like Wikipedia and others. We constantly get the "cannot connect to server" message. Yet other websites load right up with no problem.
Many websites are seriously snarled up, particularly Ebay, which is a critical one for me to have quick access to. Ebay screens are scrambled and out of order, act like purchases are being made when they're not, and photos don't show. All we get is little blue questionmarks.
Multiple PCs running on our home network work just fine, and we can get into any website with them. But ANY apple product is just stymied. We can turn off wifi on the phones, and get into websites with 3g, but as soon as the wife is turned back on, we're back to square one.
Nothing has changed on our network recently, although we did get a new router about three months ago after having consistent outages. I have noticed our wifi getting glitchier and slower as time goes by, but again, it affects the Apple products, until it just went totally haywire last week.
My husband gets wifi at work just fine, and I am accessing wifi quickly and accurately on the MBP at this very moment on a museum network.
The issue seems to be the AT&T home network, and very specifically with the full line of Apple products.
Any clean and easy suggestions? I don't want to have to jump through hoops on four different products, and I now suspect it's something to do with AT&T?

Pleeeeeeease. Somebody? Anybody?
I can't get into Facebook, or Ebay on my MacBook. Life is too short to weep and lose hair over computers. Surely there's a quick fix I just haven't thought of?

Hi, I recently updated to iOS 8.0 on my Ipad mini however when i try to agree to the new terms and conditions i get an error message saying either 'Cannot connect to server' or 'Your session has timed out please try again' what can be done to resolve this problem? Also i cannot download anything from the App store as a result of this.

Can you check the Object Security for the Analysis Menu and Export button and see if it is restricted?
Also, is this a Oracle DB? IF so, has the following 32 bit Oracle Client components been isntalled:
Oracle Objects for OLE
Oracle Data Provider for .NET
Oracle Providers for ASP.NET

TS1398 iTunes , cannot connect to server. At both, my fathers and at my place, with both, his iPad1 and my iPad 3

Started out with "Text Plus" triple charging me. Gave up on them. iTunes sent me an email with the receipt of all 3 charges with "report a problem" under each purchase. I clicked on it and that's when I had on my screen "cannot connect to server". This happens with both my iPodtouch 4 th gen. & my new iPad3 , both are WiFi. This also happens at my place and my fathers, with my products and the iPad 1 WiFi I gave to him. I can get on my iTunes but can't buy anything. I can sync . Please someone help, Sue

I just now did what you said and now it says; iTunes, cannot connect to iTunes store.
Very puzzling indeed, I contacted iTunes the other day and Derrick told me to go to Apple , I did and they said their support community has dealt with this problem before and now I am here. I think I am going to sync my iPad with iTunes for the 8th time and see if that does anything, it's been about 24 hrs. Since I did it last. Thank you for your help,Sue

Error cannot connect to server or DNS name when working with the SRDemo

I receive the error cannot connect to server or Dns name when trying to
display the SRlist.jspx page in the SRDemo. I am using the embedded OC4J server . I tried to using the debugger to trouble shoot the problem but I did not get any information that was useful. The url I am using is http://localhost:8989/SRDemo-UserInterface-context-root/faces/app/SRlist.jspx I also tried using the IP address that didn't work . I really need to get through this demo.

What about using:
http://127.0.0.1:8989/SRDemo-UserInterface-context-root/faces/app/SRlist.jspx
Or disabling any proxy settings your browser might have?

Safari Cannot Connect with Server (mountain lion) on wifi

I Posted this under Mountain Lion as Safari had no connectivity issues for me when I got my mbp and it had lion installed and ran beautifully-
NOW my apple (s) run fine on mountain lion
for a little bit,
and then I get "Safari Cannot Connect to Server"
Now during this frequent occurance the APP store hangs and hangs as well.
This is most annoying-
The only way to use my apple products after this happens is to restart them
and then they work until they go into sleep mode,
sometimes they screw up before that and then
"Safari Cannot Connect to Server"
my Airport utility shows that it is scanning for networks-
When I was right in the middle of buying something from amazon-- I had to go to my decrepit old windows xp connected up only for cox email to complete the transaction-
This is not acceptable. Since it occurs on both of my apple computers and only started when I installed mountain lion.
This has continually gotten worse to the point I must restart my laptop continually-
Apple better get the lead out of their butts and fix this glaring fault- or should I install another web browser?
which I am disinclined to do-
I spent a fortune on these apple products and I expect them to work properly- I went to apple because I was so sick of microsoft and its endless headaches and updates and freezes lol--
kind of funny if you think about it.

Hi BSU1960,
I found the solution to my problem on a different forum. Turns out for some reason the anti-virus software that I run was interferring with my browsers' connecting to the internet. Once I disabled the web protion of the anti-virus my problem went away.
I have a question to Kaspersky Security, hopefully will find out what was the root cause.

I cannot open facebook in safari it is coming up with cannot connect to server. I can open all other websites though. I have reset cookies

I cannot open facebook in safari it is coming up with cannot connect to server. I can open all other websites though. I have reset cookies & history and hard reset a number of times. I can open other websites no problems.
Any help appreciated.

You cleared cookies and data in Settings>Safari? Did you close Safari as well before you reset the iPad? Double tap the home button and drag the Safari thumbnail up to the top of the screen to close it.

Hi:
If you connect to the network via an ethernet cable, did you install the ethernet driver for your PC?
Or if you connect to the network wirelessly, did you install the wireless driver?
If you have installed either driver, unfortunately, I do not know what you can do about that problem.

Photoshop Touch: Cannot connect to server

I have Photoshop Touch (version 1.7.5) installed on a Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 (with the latest firmware). When I try to open files from my Creative Cloud, I get an error message that says: "Lost connection. Cannot connect to server". It's strange because I can see my folders, and the error message appears just after I click one of my folders to view it's containg files. I have tried to log off / log on and reboot the device, but it doesn't help. I can access my cloud files from a PC and I am sure the user name and password are correct. Does anyone know a way to fix this problem? Thanks in advance!:)

Sometimes the sign-in process goes kablooey for whatever reason. It can usually be remedied by tapping the options icon (the cogwheel out in the project selection user interface; upper right) > My Account. Sign in that way and you should be able to get everything going again. I just did it on my Google Nexus 7 2013 with no problems.
