On Firefox I get The requested URL could not be retrieved On Internet explorer it works What is wrong?

ERROR
The requested URL could not be retrieved
While trying to retrieve the URL: http://www.google.com.au/
The following error was encountered:
* Unable to forward this request at this time.
This request could not be forwarded to the origin server or to any parent caches. The most likely cause for this error is that:
* The cache administrator does not allow this cache to make direct connections to origin servers, and
* All configured parent caches are currently unreachable.
Your cache administrator is webmaster.

It could be a firewall or other security software blocking the access for Firefox - if you use the default Windows Firewall in XP, you can find help in article [[Configuring Windows Firewall]].
If you use a 3rd party security program, you could look for help with configuration in our KB articles (use yellow Search box on right side of this page - search on provider, like Norton, AVG, F-Secure), or post the name here and we'll help you find relevant link(s).
If the problem persists, this article might also help you solve it:
[[Error loading web sites]] (comprehensive article with solutions and links to other articles).
When you get online, I would recommend updating Firefox. The latest version is Firefox 3.6.3. You can get it from [http://getfirefox.com getfirefox.com] and install it over your current version. Also see article [[Updating Firefox]] for info.

Why am I seeing this message: Error: The requested URL could not be retrieved

Only when I try to log onto Netflix. Worked beautifully yesterday.

Hello khihdartop,
Sorry to hear about your issue.
Are you connected to a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server? If you are then your IT admin may have placed restrictions on your internet usage. If you are not connected to a BlackBerry Enterprise Server then you will want to contact your wireless service provider to see if they have any restriction in place.

My iphone wont let me play songs that I bought from iTunes. It says "The requested URL was not found on this server" How can i play my music also my music videos again?

I bought a few songs and music videos from iTunes, then all of a sudden it wouldn't play and would just skip to the next song. With the music videos it would do the same. Also, this message would show up " The Requested URL could not be found on this server" What does that exactly mean? And what do I need to do to play my music/videos again?

Getting error message "the requested item could not be found" when trying to install Firefox on my android.

I had to uninstall Firefox for Android because I was having problems logging in to sync. I got a support e-mail to uninstall and reinstall because the sync issue had been fixed. I uninstalled the Firefox app and then when I tried to reinstall it I get the error message on my phone "the requested item could not be found." HELP!

Some supported phones are not displaying Firefox in the Market for some reason. We're still investigating this. You can check if your phone is supported here:
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android
and then download the app directly from here:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/releases/4.0b3/android-r7/multi/
(Note: If your phone is from AT&T, you will have to search for instructions on "sideloading" the APK file, since AT&T disables the option to install from non-Market sources.)

You have two choices to try & fix this: 1. Backup your phone, then restore as a new device, then restore from the backup you first created, or 2. Follow the advise from this poster:
I had the same problem with the black blocks after upgrading to iOS4 on my iPhone. The reason for the black blocks is that the thumbnail images for those particular images have not been created when the Photo Library has been updated to iOS4. I followed the advice on a couple of blogs and fixed the problem.
1. I downloaded iPhone Explorer free software (http://www.macroplant.com/iphoneexplorer/) so I could view the photo data folders on my phone. I could see that the thumbnail images were missing.
2. I followed a slight variation on the instructions on this blog. (http://blog.mbentley.net/2010/06/iphone-ios-4-upgrade-restore-lost-pictures-in-c amera-roll/)
3. First I copied the Photo Data folder by dragging it from the iPhone Explorer window to my Mac desktop.
4. Through iPhone Explorer I deleted the info.plist file in the Media/PhotoData/MISC folder.
5. I also deleted the Photos.sqlite and PhotosAux.sqlite files in Media/PhotoData.
6. I then rebooted the phone and launched the Photo Library.
7. The Library rebuilt it's self again and recreated the thumbnails.
8. The problem was fixed!!! Thank you M Bentley!
I hope this helps - this has been bugging me for 2 weeks.

I get a "the requested URL was not found on this server" when trying to play a song in my iphone

I have a new iphone5 and after synking my songs and musice. I get a "The requested URL was not found on this server" when I click on a song or a music video. It is almost like itunes did not copy my songs from my account to the new iphone.

I was having the same problems with my movies and tv shows. I unchecked them, then rechecked them, and synced all them again. Presto! They are all working again. Thank you.

I recently purchased itunes match, but I get the message "The requested URL was not found on this server".

I have had problems with playing music on my Iphone 5 from day 1. I have purchased almost 500 songs in itunes, and only a handful would play. I decided to purchase IMatch, but playing music is even more difficult. It quickly skips through my playlists showing me the artwork/album cover for each song, and will occassionally play a song, but I mostly get the message "The requested URL was not found on this server".
Help Please! I need my music on my phone for 2 hours/day!

Ok, then as long as the videos reside on your PC, do the following:
1) In iTunes on your PC, unsync the music videos (On the Music tab, uncheck "Include Music Videos, and then sync your iPad).
2) Sync the music videos back to the iPad (check that same box again and sync once more).
Does this fix it?

Problem with Home Sharing. Getting the error "The Requested URL was not Found on this Server"

I recently purchased an iPhone 5. As I do with all of my AppleTVs, iPads, iPods and an iPhone 4 in my home, I connected the 5 to my home network and accessed the shared video library using home sharing. My iTunes library is roughly 85% iTunes purchases, a handful of videos taken with iOS devices, and some video ripped with Handbrake. All of these videos work fine on all devices in my home except my new iPhone 5. When I access the shared video library on my iPhone 5, all of the textual data for all of the videos appears, however, I can only get the iPhone to play 1 video of the dozens in my iTunes library. When I try to play any other, I get the error, "The Requested URL was not Found on this Server."
Interestingly, only one video in my entire shared library displays the artwork associated with it in my iTunes library on my iPhone 5, and that's the one I can stream without a problem. Even more interestingly, that video I am able to stream was ripped using Handbrake (there are a number in my library ripped using Handbrake, but just this one will stream to my iPhone 5 for some reason).
I'm using the latest version of iTunes (10.7) on my home (iMac) computer (running OSX 10.8.2- Mountain Lion)and of course iOS 6 on the iPhone 5. I've tried resetting my iPhone several times as well as restarting my iMac which holds my iTunes library.
Does anyone have any ideas as to what's going on?

Can you see if you can view index page from a browser on iPhone.
Have you seen live streams working from a different computer...
if not then check if a proper crossdomain.xml file in its place(webroot folder).

When i try to watch synced video on my itouch i get "the requested url cannot be found on this server". I am able to watch the video on my pc in itunes. however, i cannot watch it on my itouch.

When i try to watch synced video on my itouch i get "the requested url cannot be found on this server". I am able to watch the video on my pc in itunes. However, i cannot watch it on my itouch. It shows in the video window that the video is there but when i select it to watch it i get the message and then it goes back to the video menu. It's like it's not really syncing - even though it shows on my itouch. It doesn't seem to be specific to videos downloaded to the itouch directly or itunes directly. It's happening to both.

This is happening to me too. I recently purchased about 4 music videos from iTunes, 3 of them play on both my pc and my iPod Touch but there's one particular music video that will only play on my pc and gives me the same "The requested url cannot be found on this server" message when I try to play it on my iPod. Can someone please rectify?

Because the location for each song in your library is on your hard drive. If the hard drive isn't there, how can iTunes play it?
You'll have to move/copy the music from your hard drive to your computer's hard drive.
Basically, EASIEST way to do all this, if you don't care about your play counts, etc...
-Delete EVERYTHING from iTunes, so that your library is now empty.
-Go to "Advanced" inside of the "Preferences" window, found in the "Edit" drop-down. You can also access Preferences by pressing Ctrl+, (Press Ctrl and the comma key)
-Change your iTunes Media Folder Location to something simple, but on your computer. I use C:/iTunes. Make sure "Keep iTunes Media Folder Organized" and "Copy files to...." are both checked. You can close Preferences now.
-Now, drag and drop your music from your hard drive into your iTunes library. iTunes will automatically add the music to your library, as you would expect, and also creates a copy of each file to place into that iTunes Media Folder you just created.
Shouldn't have any more problems...
