Opening iPad web page on PC?

I frequently use my iPad while at my desktop PC. While viewing a web page in Safari, what is the fastest way to get it up on my PC web browser please? For short URLs manual entry is the obvious choice, but they're the minority.

Mike,
On a WM-based device (like my HTC Touch Pro 2) a program called Microsoft ActiveSync is permanently running on my PC. That continuously syncs a specific folder on both TP2 and PC, called C:\Docs\Touch_Pro2 My Documents. That's currently about 32 MB. Within that I use a sub-folder called C:\Docs\Touch_Pro2 My Documents\MyTP2Misc (currently 3 MB, 87 files) to hold stuff I use either: regularly, like Contacts.txt or Key Dates.txt, or to which I might need short term access, like directions while traveling, or an urgent reminder ... *or a quick paste of a URL like the one under discussion.*
Of course, the TP2 must be connected to the PC via USB, when automatic syncing takes place immediately. If I'm away from my desktop at the time I copy the URL or whatever text I need to upload, then it has to await my return home. Or an email in iPad fashion!

  • I have an iPad 2.  Safari will not open any web pages.

    I have an iPad 2 which I have had for almost a year.  I have never had trouble with my WiFi before and now Safari is not working.  It will not open any web pages.  All of my apps (like Facebook and IMDB) that require an internet connection are working.  Safari on my iPhone is working with my WiFi.  I have tried resetting my WiFi and my iPad and that has not helped.  I took it to an Apple store and they told me nothing was wrong with it because Safari was working in their store.  When I brought it home it worked for a day and is now not working again.  Any ideas?

    From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
    Tap and hold any icon until they wiggle
    Press the red to delete the Safari app from this list.
    Press the home twice button when done.
    Restart Safari.

  • My  ipad is connected to the wi-fi but still wont open any web pages. what should I do?

    I need help with using the internet. my ipad is connected to the wi-fi but there's still a problem opening the web page.

    Reboot your router by powering it down for 30 seconds. Power off your iPad.
    Power up your router and make sure it completes its startup and acquires a good connection to the Internet. Then power up your iPad. Go to settings > Wi-Fi then select your Wi-Fi network and tap on Forget this Network. Then let the iPad try to connect again. Be sure any required password is entered correctly.

    Your iPad is probably not connected to the Internet.

  • Can not open any web page in Safari

    can not open any web page in Safari on the IPad.  All other wireless features work fine.

    If this does not work then try a reset ,
    Reset your iPad by pressing the 'Sleep' and 'Home' button at the same time for about 15 seconds or so. Your iPad  will then go through a reset / reboot procedure and will be ready for use within about a minute.
    Don't worry about doing this as you will not lose data or settings.
    Good luck and do report back.

  • Safari on iPod touch will no longer open any web pages even after reset.

    My iPod touch will no longer open any web pages via Safari. I am connected to WiFi and other apps work fine (mail for example). I connected to Itunes and did a reset - still no luck. S/w is up to date for this version of touch - 4.x.
    Please help with any ideas?

  • Safari Wont Open Any Web Page

    I just updated my Safari to 3.1.2 and now it wont open any web page. I know my system is fine as I also have Firefox and it works great. I have tried reseting Safari, emptying the cache deleting the plist, but nothing works. I have even tried deleting Safari and downloading the latest version from the apple website and re-installing it. No dice either. Safari seems to be working fine but it wont opent any website. Everything just time's out. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Try this:
    Empty Safari's cache (from the Safari menu), then close Safari.
    Go to Home/Library/Safari and delete the following files:
    form values
    download.plist
    Then go to Home/Library/Preferences and delete
    com.apple.Safari.plist
    Repair permissions (in Disk Utility).
    Start up Safari again, and things should have improved.
    If not, MacFixit have published a very detailed (very!) article on speeding up a slow Safari, here:
    http://www.macfixit.com/article.php?story=20070416000657464
    Many, including me, have also followed the advice given by others here to add DNS codes to their Network Settings, with good results in terms of speed-up:
    Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu. Click on TCP/IP and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' enter the following two numbers:
    208.67.222.220
    208.67.220.222
    Click on Apply Now and close the window.
    Restart Safari, and repair permissions.

  • Can't open some web pages... DOES ANYONE HAVE A FIX THAT WORKS?

    I'm unable to open certain web pages. The pages will start to open and than the application will just stall. This seems to have coincided with downloading a security update a while back. I've tried downloading firefox and it too will not open these specific pages. I've searched the forum and as of now I can't find a solution. From what I've hear, Apple isn't even acknowledging that there is an issue. I've repaired permissions, deleted Safari plist files, all with no improvement. I know for a fact that it is not my internet connection, as my powerbook can navigate to these sites without any issues, however my powermac seems to have "forgotten" how to open some web pages.
    Any fixes would be enourmously appreciated!

    Thanks for the reply.
    I don't think that reporting the pages to apple would do much good as it's not the pages themselves that are the issue, it's something on my system that prevents them from opening up properly. My laptop will open the pages without any issue, however my desktop isn't able to for god knows what reason. I know others on this board have had similar problems.

    Ralph..........Did as you suggested and I am still getting the message "Safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding".  I am not able to connect with anything on the Internet.  Frustrating since I am able to connect with my laptop.  Thanks for the suggestion.

  • Safari won't open certain web pages

    Hi,
    I can't get Safari to open certain web pages. This has only been the case for the last week or so, I could happily view them before.
    2 examples are : www.facebook.com and www.quaysws.co.uk
    can anybody please help, it just seems a bit weird...

    I just got this link, http://www.quaysws.co.uk/flash/page1.php,
    to open in both Safari and Firefox. Mind you at the same time, I cannot get Apple.com to open in Safari I'm running Leopard with Safari 3.0.4. Whoa Safari just decided that Apple.com does exist and opened it without me first having to restart the computer. Safari definitely has some bugs but you may want to make sure that you don't have any 3rd party add-ons set up and you may have to reinstall.

  • When I try to open a website, a dialog bok opens heading "Opening Serch". I t asks 'What should Firefox do with this file?' instead of opening that web page.

    When I try to open any web page, a dialog box opens up "Opening search". It asks me 'What should Firefox do with this file?'
    The bullets 'Open with Browse' and Sane File.

    Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?
    Some security may alter the HTTP response headers if Firefox is not a trusted application.
