Frequent "Invalid URL" problem on my MacBook

I have a strange problem accessing websites with my MacBook. I'll go to a website like Google, Amazon, Netflix, etc, and intermittently, I'll get the following error message:
Invalid URL
The requested URL "http://www.netflix.com/", is invalid.
Reference #9.3f5a9140.1291780004.110aa136 (this changes)
The error message appears on a simple white page, in black serif type. The next day I'll try again, and the same URL will work fine. The URL is always correct.
I have a 2008 aluminum unibody Macbook OS 10.5 Leopard.
I've deleted cookies, cleared cache, and updated all software, including Safari.
But the issue still periodically occurs.
Any insight would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
Rick

I had other web browsers on my mac, both firefox and opera. I cleared all cookies, history, and the like, and then deleted all the other web browsers. once i restarted my computer it all worked fine again. My guess is there was something downloaded on the other web browsers that was hurting my ability to surf the web

  • Invalid URL problem

    Hi,
    After i set the external JDBC driver and datasource. I receive the other
    one error
    "Invalid URL"
    Do I need to register my datasource by using 'iAS deploy tool' ?
    where should I save the '.xml' file in ?
    Thank you!!!

    Hi.
    When you want to use a database with a third party driver, the following
    steps need to be followed:
    a) Make sure the database is up and running.
    b) Register a third party driver - On Windows, use "jdbcsetup.exe" and on
    Unix, use "db_setup.sh". Provide a logival name for the driver, classname of
    the driver and the driver classpath
    c) Register the datasource. This is done by creating a datasource XML file
    and registering it using "iasdeploy regdatasource <XML file> ". Look at one
    of the samples (HelloDb would be a simple one) to see how the datasource
    files are created and registered. The datasource XML files are at
    installdir/ias6/ias/ias-samples/database/hellodb/src/schema
    Thx,

  • Invalid URL's

    I have a new MacBook and I am having a lot of problems with getting Invalid URL's. I have tried to solve it but it is getting worse. I did call support and they tried to help but it still is doing it. I have to keep refreshing and it is getting very annoying. Is there anything you can do to help me?
    I have ran updater so everything is up to date. Please help.

    I've had the same problem and it is infuriating. I've emptied caches, reset everything, downloaded updates, and even tried using different web-browsers... nothing works.
    I have two other Mac computers in my house and websites work on the other two just fine while I will continue to get the invalid url message on my macbook pro. It is truely frustrating. I've looked everywhere for help. Please pass on a solution if you find one. thanks and good luck! I'll be sure to do the same

  • Error 47: Invalid URL. ()

    For the last few weeks when trying to download an HD trailer (480p, 720p, 1080p) for ANY movie, I keep getting the message Error 47: Invalid URL. ().  I have tried in IE 9.0, Firefox 5.0 and Chrome (12.0.742.112) and ALL give me the same result.
    I am running the lastest version of QuickTime Player - 7.6.9 (1680.9) [QuickTime Version 7.6.9 (1680.9)] on Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit.
    I have also tried on Windows Vista Business 32-bit SP2 running QuickTime Player - 7.6.5 (518.4) [QuickTime Version 7.6.5 (1327.80)] with IE 9.0, Firefox 3.5.4 and still giving me the same results.
    I have found suggestions from posts that are anywhere from 2007-2009 but they do NOT work.
    This has obviously been an issue for quite some time and with NO resolution.
    I do hope an Apple developer or someone reads this so that we can find out what is being done.
    If nothing gets done, then I guess I have no choice but to go to other sites like Yahoo or HD-Trailers, to view trailers that actually work.

    I have the "Error 47: Invalid URL" problem, too. Startet a few weeks ago, never had this problem in the past.
    My current system:
    PC
    Intel Core i5 750 (4x 2.67 GHz)
    8 GB RAM
    Nvidia GeForce GTX 275
    Windows 7 x64 Home Premium SP1 (german) - all updates installed
    Quicktime 7.6.9 (german)
    I testet with Firefox 5.0 and Internet Explorer 9.0.1, a few seconds after selecting HD Trailer on trailers.apple.com (e.g. 720p), I got the error 47 messagebox and "QuickTimePlayer.exe*32" was listet in the Taskmanager under processes, but no GUI loaded. I had to kill the process.
    I also tried disabling my Norton Internet Security, but has no effect.
    When I "save to ..." and try to open the (very small) *.mov file in Quicktime I get an error, too.
    Other *.mov files from my HDD working fine.
    Yesterday I tried my old PC (Pentium 4  3.2 GHz, 2 GB RAM, Windows XP 32-bit SP3) and I could watch the HD Trailers with Firefox 5.0 and IE 8.0 with no problems!
    While the "invalid URL" points to a problem on the apple website, maybe it only happends on Windows 7 / 64-bit systems.

  • Occasionally I get an "Invalid URL" message when I visit frequently used websites.

    When I visit some of my frequently visited websites, I sometimes get an "Invalid URL" error page. Then, about 15-20 minutes later, the website works fine. I tried going to Google Chrome and it works just fine. This is only happening in Firefox.

    Hello,
    Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
    Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
    To clear cache and cookies do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
    #Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
    #Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
    #From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
    #Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
    Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • Macbook Pro wifi invalid password problem

    Have a strange problem with my MacBook wifi connection in that everytime I connect my MacBook Pro to the wifi router it requires a WPA2 password. I type in the password to join only to be told it is an invalid password, however, if I keep repeatedly clicking on the submit button (between 3 and 11 times) it eventually accepts the password and connects to the wifi - I've tried deleting the network and then adding, have deleted the password and reentered it in the keychain.
    If I put the MacBook to sleep for any length of time then restart it, once again it forgets the password and I have to go through the whole ritual again.
    I'm not having any problems with my iPad, iPhone and recently purchased Nexus 7 (sorry Apple but I need StreetView & YouTube) which all automatically connect.
    This issue has been going on for months now. As for OS Lion, well it was running 10.7.4 but I updated it today to 10.7.5 to see if that fixes the problem but it's had no effect.
    The MacBook connects flawlessly at home so am not sure what is causing the grief.
    Anyone have a clue what is causing this and how to fix it.

  • Youtube Facebook Google etc, Invalid URL error

    For many years now I've been putting up with a CONSTANT lingering problem with my Mac OS. These (on a very regular basis) irritating, "Invalid URL" errors.
    The picture that you see below is an example of my problem.  This example of a Youtube video giving me an error is from a recent article on www.macrumors.com.
    Where the youtube video is supposed to be is just an Error.  And as I scrolled down the page, all of the subsequent youtube videos had this same error.
    So I went to youtube.  After typing in the web address, I get the same error except that it fills the entire screen.
    After about 20 minutes (of constant screen refreshes and data dumps within safari) the youtube videos finally loaded as if nothing was wrong (as you can see in the second photo).
    Sometimes this problems lasts for 10 seconds.  But normally it can take between 10 minutes to an hour to begin working again.
    The other two websites that give me this same trouble is Google.com and Facebook.com.  But Facebook being the most notorious.  Not just because my actual facebook page won't load, but because of all of the news sites that load facebook garbage and coding searching for facebook.  When the facebook ip address cannot be resolved, these annoying error pop-ups begin bombarding my screen.  One minute facebook will work, and I'm reading down the newfeed, then all of the sudden nothing new will load.  When I try to refresh the page, I get an error stating that it cannot load the page.  Then I just have to wait.
    As you can see from the picture below, Sometimes facebook just gives me an error that states, "Safari cannot open the page Facebook.com because Safari cannot establish a secure connection to the facebook server."
    This happens EVERY single day.  It's really just a crap-shoot whether or not I will be able to get onto Facebook.
    Youtube is a little less often (usually happening about 3 or 4 times per week).
    Google got so bad that I finally had to change my search provider to Bing, because Google almost never worked.
    Has anyone else experienced these problems on their MAC?
    I ask because I have 3 MAC computers.  2 Laptops and a MacPro tower. 
    And EVERY single one has this same problem.
    This wasn't such a big deal; ie something I learned to live with... Up until I bought my wife (and Windows Vista convert) her new Macbook Air.  And within an hour of booting that thing up for the first time, her Facebook errored out.  And has done it pretty consistantly every day, at least twice, since then.
    If anyone else has this problem, how did you fix it????????

    Here are the results:
    I hope someone can make heads or tails out of this.
    And please keep in mind that in the past I have completely wiped and reinstalled after reformatting and within an hour or 2 I get the same errors on the these websites.

  • Invalid URL in Safari

    Hi -  When using Safari, I frequently get an Invalid URL when accessing a popular web page (Like Google News or Yahoo). If I wait for an hour, it takes me to the page without issue.  Meanwhile, I can access these pages without any problem from other local devices.
    I have read through a number of posts on this topic, but there is never a agreed conclusion about what is happening and how to fix it.
    In the example above: I am accessing Google News by Going to the Google homepage and clicking on the 'News' link. I get:
    Invalid URL
    The requested URL "/nwshp?hl=en&tab=wn", is invalid.
    Reference #9.9da41160.1312241126.593bca2d
    Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

    Eric thank you, thank you, thank you. It worked perfectly!
    I wanted to take some time to see if it was going to last and sure enough it has. It has been about 2 weeks and no invalid URL messages anymore. I can jump from site to site without errors. I do social media for a living and you wouldn't believe how much it slowed me down before. I would have to save everything I was doing and restart my computer at least 4 or 5 times a day.
    You need to post this on YouTube.
    Dewerd I am sure you will fine that everything is perfect with your computer now too. Eric you are the best!

  • Invalid URL Errors

    So I've been getting lots of random Invalid URL errors on sites I have bookmarked and some others that I visit frequently whose address I am sure of. For example, I have my gmail account bookmarked and the last few weeks or so it give me the message that "/mail" is an invalid URL then it might say that "/" is an invalid URL. Ten minutes later it will work just fine. Also having the problem with other assorted sites at random times. Never really the same one usually, but gmail does it pretty often. Even searching for "google mail" then following the link does the same. Any idea what thats about or do I need to provide more info?

    Hi and welcome to Apple Discussions...
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari / Preferences then select the Security tab. Click: Show Cookies. Delete all cookies or delete the cookies associated the sites you have problems accessing.
    Quit Safari.
    And, open a Finder window. Select your Home folder in the Sidebar on the left. Now open the Library folder then the Caches folder then the com.apple.Safari folder. Move the cache.db file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash.
    Relaunch Safari.

  • Safari 5.1.7 "Invalid URL" & "certificate not valid"-Google won't even work! HELP

    I have the newest version of Safari and as far as I know everything else on my computer is up-to-date. I checked for a software update and it claims everything is up to date. This has been happening for a little while and started with the invalid site certificates. I never was sure if I should click "continue" or "cancel". I first was clicking cancel and continue trying to see what changed. Cancel would keep me on the same page (I think, if I remember correctly) and continue would usually take me to the desired site. But recently this problem with site certificates has been happening more and more on different sites (I believe it began on facebook; and on sites I use daily). I just tried to google the problem and of course a web page of "Invalid URL" comes up. So I tried to see if it would work on a different browser (Firefox and Chrome), I had the same problem on those two, too, which makes me think a Google problem. However, this happens on other sites, such as facebook, and the site doesn't work for a little while (usually a period of X minutes). Even when I completely quit Safari, this doesnt change.
    I reset Safari tonight, and I've cleared the cookies, and I've emptied the cache, but nothing seems to be working. Im starting to wonder if there is a way to downgrade just one version of Safari to see if maybe this is a bug on this version of Safari, but I have no idea if that's possible or if it'll work.
    Please help!

    I hear ya...irritating as ****.  It's on all the other I've followed th other threads and tried the fixes, so far nothing.  Hit me up if you ever find a workable solution other than going back to a PC.  :s You'd think Apple would've fixed this by now, cause they're supposedly very very very very good.

    You have nearly run out of disk space.  Either purchase a larger one or start cleaning out the one you have?

  • Short of dismantling and recreating a page how do i find out whats causing [Error: Invalid URL for Web Content Overlay]

    Hi,
    i received an indesign file to include in a folio that had links to the creators desktop where they had the assets for the web content overlay. When i try to update the folio i get the error message:
    "Content generation error.
    [Error: Invalid URL for Web Content Overlay]"
    Which is fair enough.
    The problem is, i have gone through and changed all URLs that I can see, but there is one somewhere, that I just can't find.
    Is there a way to get a list of all web content overlays in a particular file? otherwise i will need to recreate the whole page again, and it has some pretty complex interactions which i rather wouldn't do.
    I also cannot ask the original doc creator to just change the links as i'm sure he'll have the same issues as me, at not being able to track down the erroneous link.
    The problem I have with DPS is that its not very transparent. you'll have to click on everything, and into every group to see what actions are on it, which can be extremely time consuming and frustrating when complex interactions are included.
    thanks in advance for any assistance

    I’ve found watching the process helpful to narrow down the page.
    Working off a duplicate of the file, delete one layer at a time until you figure out what layer the problem is on.
    From there it’s a bit easier to narrow down.
