Randomly, my site all of a sudden can't connect to server

Hi there!
I have been updating a site for years, and have never had any probs connecting to the server from Dreamweaver but now get this error message attached in the image.
Their site is not down, I can login to control panel ok, there have been no changes to the site username passwords etc and it all of a sudden just won't work,
Any ideas??
Thanks!

Did your host switch to SFTP connections?

  • All of a sudden Safari cannot connect to server when I go on certain websites. But when I tried these websites on the same computer from a different location they opened fine.

    I used to go on several websites without a problem, one being www.udel.edu/udsis   but now all of a sudden when I try to open these websites it says "Safari can't connect to server". At first I thought my computer had the problem, but when I tried the other mac in my house I had the same issue. The next day I visited family in another state and brought my computer with me, I typed those website addresses in and they opened without a problem. But now I'm back at home and I still can't open those websites. What gives?

    Leads one to suspect an ISP issue. Yours. Perhaps for the moment though. In any case I like to use OpenDNS servers for safety and speed.
    System Preferences>Network>Advanced>DNS
    In the left side column click on the + sign and insert the following:
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    Click OK, then click Apply.

  • Safari Version 5.1.2 (7534.52.7) suddenly can't connect to server, Firefox works fine

    Running Lion 10.7.2 and latest version of Safari.
    Last night I opened up my MacBook and Safari gives the 'can't connect to server' error for any page I try and visit.
    I tried resetting Safari, clearing cache, rebooting Safair, rebooting computer, resetting router and modem, uninstalling/reinstalling Safari.
    Firefox still works fine.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Figured out my issue.
    It was a conflict with an old version of Little Snitch running with Safari 5.1.2
    I updated to the latest Little Snitch version and no more issues.

  • I have a macbook air, have never had a problem with it, but all of a sudden can't connect to wifi. Says "ip address fail". Any suggestions?

    I've also tried network idagnostics, it can never get further than ISP. Sometimes ill get lucky and it'll connect, but the connection *****. I know the internet itself is working cause the other computers in the house are working fine. Help!

    Thanks Bob, I don't know why but it all of a sudden worked a few days later. It's a mystery but at least problem solved.

  • Computer Suddenly can not connect to server

    I have a problem specific only to my Macbook that no one can seem to figure out and I really need help!
    I have my own site that I'm working on and my Mac is just completely blocking it for some reason. Here's the situation:
    I can access my site on any browser on any computer (in this house on the same wifi network) except from my computer. I can access my site through any FTP client on any computer in this house or anywhere, except through my computer. So on my computer, every browser says "cannot connect to server" (or some version to that effect). Every FTP client does the same exact thing on my computer alone.
    So I guess I've narrowed down the problem that somehow locally on my computer, my mac is completely rejecting that server and/or that address for some reason! I have no issue with any other site on my computer or anything!
    I've emptied cache(s) repeatedly, I've tried to ping other sites and I get good feedback, but when I ping my site, I get nothing. I've looked through other forums for help and found nothing! Nobody from Godaddy, charter, or apple support seems to have an answer for this! But I'm certain that this is a Mac issue, not an internet issue!
    about 4 days ago, I had my site forwarding to another site and up to that point, I had no issue with any ftp client, or any browsers accessing it! In the midst of changing everything, somehow something changed on my computer to reject access to that server!
    If anyone can help me, that would be GREATLY appreciated! I'm about to pull my hair out! thanks for any help!

    Perhaps your problem is with DNS. Try setting your DNS to OpenDNS by going to 'System Preferences'>'Network'>'Advanced'
    Click on the DNS tab and remove your existing DNS servers.
    Replace them with 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220.
    While you are at it, verify that your mac isn't connecting through a proxy.
    Once you do that go to 'Finder' and click on 'Go'>'Connect to Server'
    type in the server address in the following format "ftp://foo.com"
    Click on Connect.

  • All of a sudden, can't connect wirelessly to WRT54G2!!

    Hi! I have a WRT54G2 router with a desktop wired to it. The desktop is mine and my roommate wirelessly connects with her laptop and has been doing so no problem for about 6 months (ever since we got the router). On Christmas Eve, she was connected, went out, came home and found she'd lost her wireless connection. Now she can't get it back.
    **I can still get online on the desktop.**
    I've power cycled to no avail. What is weird is sometimes she will click on the list of available networks (so she can choose which she wants to connect to) and mine WILL be there, other times it will NOT. If she does happen to catch it at a moment when my network is there, and she tries to connect using the passphrase, it says "Trying to connect" or something to that effect, for like 3 minutes and then nothing happens. Also, not that I would need to, but if I go to "connect to" on my PC (as if I were looking to choose a network to connect to), my network name doesn't always show. It is random. Sometimes it does not even show when I go to "Networks" on my desktop.
    We are going crazy here and I'm sad to say I am not very technical. I can provide more info if need be. My roommate took her laptop to her parents house and can connect to their wireless network, so I know the problem is the router or something to do with it....Can someone please help me?

    Thank you so much for writing back! The ssid is currently set to my name. (I named it that when I first got the router...so, it's not currentlly the Linksys example).
    As for security, it is already set to WPA2 Personal and for WPA Algorithms, it is set to TKIP+AES. There is already a passphrase in there (The ones that we've been using all along for her to connect wirelessly.. and that has worked until now...she's been able to use it no problem)...
    So, everything "appears" to already be the way you advise it needs to. Am I doing something wrong?
    Would it help to rename the router and change the passphrase, or does that not matter? What is weird is she seems it sometimes, but no all, and when she does see it, and enters the passphrase (which has worked before) it just doesn't connect.
    Here is some additional info as to the way it is set right now
    Under "Basic Wireless Settings"
    Wireless Configuration- Manual
    Wireless Network Mode- Mixed
    Wireless Network Name- Tara
    Wireless Channel- 6-2.437GHz
    Wireless SSID Broadcast -Enable
    Wireless Security
    Security Mode- WPA2 Personal
    WPA Algorithms- TKIP-AES
    Then there is my group shared key
    Group Key renewal - 3600 seconds
    Wireless Mac Filter- Disable
    Advanced Wireless settings
    (Most here are set to the default)
    Under setup of the router, DHCP server is "enabled"
    Under firewall,
    3 things are checked
    Block anonymous internet requests
    Filter muliticast
    Filter IDENT
    Under Access restrictions, it says "status" and it is set to "disable"
    Under administration, where it says "Wireless access web" --"enable" is checked
    Under status, in regards to firmware, it says this:
     Firmware Version: 1.0.00 build 012, Jan. 24, 2008  
    Any ideas? What baffles me is that is has been working for her to connect wirelessly for months, using the passphrase and everything...and now, without my making any changes or messing with the router at all, this happens.
    Any ideas would be appreciated!!

  • Safari has stopped opening certain webpages and says can't connect to server... This started 3 months ago with FB and now randomly with another site... all other sites are fine.. Help?

    Safari has stopped opening certain webpages and says can't connect to server... This started 3 months ago with FB and now randomly with another site... all other sites are fine.. Help?
    I've tried resetting safari, deleting all webpage data and setting time/date to automatic, but no such luck.
    The message that comes up is: "Safari can't establish a secure connection to the server 'Facebook' "
    I'd be genuinely impressed if anyone were to actually work out what was wrong.

    Hi ..
    Might be a cookies, cache, or extensions issue.
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
    Click:  Remove All Website Data
    Then delete the cache.
    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that doesn't help, troubleshoot Safari extensions.
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

  • TS3103 All of a sudden can't receive email on Mail client.  Sessions with service provider (Att/yahoo) and Apple have yielded no results!

    All of a sudden can't receive email on Mail client.  Sessions with service provider (att/yahoo) and Apple have yielded no results!  Recently upgraded to Lion, but have received email since.  Anyone having the same problem.  Apple says service provider problem, service provider say it's the mail client.  Anyone had this problem???

    No.  My frustration with the problem just led me to begin the process convert all my email to a gmail client.  However, after some time all my mail with att/yahoo has been coming through as before.  Go figure.  Still will convert to gmail.

  • Safari won't work with CNN Pipeline and other sites all of a sudden?

    Safari won't work with CNN Pipeline and other sites all of a sudden? A few weeks ago Safari was working OK but now I often have to use Firefox to visit certain webpages.
    Anyone else having this same problem?
    Is there a quick fix?
    I'm using Safari 2.0.4
    Thanks.

    Hi QuickTimeKirk,
    I have WMP version 9, as well. I do not use F4M, for many users f4mac is what helps.
    I find some items work while others do not. I always get an alert about the wmp , which version it is, takes very long to load, I find it is not consistant with Safari, as seems the poster of this topic has found.
    Quoted from ms Mactopia site:

    though 41 errors is not as poor as some, Firefox handles the site better than Safari, imo.

  • TS1398 have been connected to my wireless network using a netgear sky broadband router succesfully for a few weeks, suddenly can't connect, network is showing but no signal - all other wireless gadgets are connected just fine - including iphone - any idea

    my ipad 4 has been connected to my wireless network using a netgear sky broadband router succesfully for a few weeks, suddenly can't connect, network is showing but no signal - all other wireless gadgets are connected just fine - including iphone - any ideas?

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • Suddenly can't connect to Yahoo email?  "Incorrect username or password".

    I thought I was past all the email headaches I've had with the X. Its certainly not a Blackberry...lol
    Everything has been working fine for the last month and now all of a sudden it wont connect to Yahoo. I've tried removing the account and setting it up again. I've tried every different suggested setting. I got it to work and it synced up all my yahoo email and then an hour later it wouldnt connect again. The error message is "Incorrect username or password".  I've entered the correct information.....trust me.
    I am at wits end with this phone. The email problems have been going on since the Droid came out. Why hasnt Verizon resolved the problem?
    Any suggestions as to what I can do to get my problem correct? I love the phone...but hate the email functionality.

    Not a Verizon issue...a Droid issue. My bad...I see I stated verizon in the first post. I meant to say motorola.
     You can search the internet and find many people have had the same thing.. I've had lots of problems with bellsouth also....and so have many others. I still cant , and never have been able to, send an attachment with my bellsouth account.. I had a Verizon Blackberry for years and never once had trouble accessing yahoo or bellsouth. I dont want to switch back. I think the Droid is a cool phone......but if I'm paying $30 for a data plan and need to get my emails I expect to get my emails.

  • Suddenly can't connect to windows server

    I suddenly can't connect to the windows server. The username and password is correct, but it says "Connection Failed: Unknown user, incorrect password, or login is disabled. Please retype the name and password or contact the server's administrator." It pings the server as well. My internet and email works fine. The IT guys can't figure it out either, but they are not mac gurus. Connecting via smb comes back with "Could not connect to the server because the name or password is not correct" before I even enter login information, if that is helpful information. I also tried connecting through the server alias under the network and its the connetion failed as going through Connnect to Server and entering it as AFP://ipaddress.
    Can it be from the 10.4.11 update? It was fine before the update I believe - but I can't recall for sure. I'm a lone mac user in a very pc company, so any mac expert advice would be helpful.
    Is just strange since I have no problems connecting to our work email via GroupWise.

    Connecting via smb comes back with "Could not connect to the server because the name or password is not correct" before I even enter login information, if that is helpful information.
    Yes for any previous connection, Macs will send what's in Keychain Access, even if it's wrong, before you get asked... delete that reference in Keychain Access.
