Safari can not open page-but I can open manually

my default page is my yahoo page that used to open when I opened a new web page
It was working fine yesterday. I started safari and I get the can't open page message.
I can open it manually but not when I open a new window.
It was working fine and then all of a sudden it did this.
I reset safari and shut down my mac, rebooted, etc. Nothing
Very very annoying.
Thanks
Stephen

Hi everyone, I also had the same problem with connecting to the internet at home, with a brand new iPad, but managed to sort it out today with the help of the Genius Bar staff. I figured it was a router/software issue because wifi/internet was working at my university and at the Apple store. As posted in other threads on this forum, your iPad was probably not assigned an IP address.
I am using an Airport Express 802.11n, and this is connected via ethernet to my modem from my internet provider in Switzerland. It seems the problem is with "Bridge Mode", and my modem won't give out an IP address to my iPad. To fix this, I used the "Share a Public IP address" mode instead of Bridge mode. In Airport Utility, I went to Manual Setup - Internet - Internet Connection tab - Connection Sharing - Share a public IP address.
Then in the DHCP tab, DHCP reservation, I added my iPad to this list. it will ask you for your iPad's MAC number, which you can find in your iPad Settings - General - About - Wifi Address. I did not bother adding my Macbook or iPhone and wifi is still working for them so I think this IP address reservation step might be optional.
For those not using Macs or Airport Utility, unfortunately I am not familiar with setting up routers in the browser, so I can't help you there, but hopefully you get the idea.
Internet now works, but I haven't tried it long enough to know whether I have issues with dropping wifi, but at least the IP address is obtained and I can surf.
Hope this helps others!!!!!!

  • Safari cannot open pages, but firefox can.

    My daughters Mac Mini has started strange behaviour. Safari will not open most websites (says it can't connect), but Firefox can. This includes sites such as Google and Yahoo, that open on Safari on the other Macs in our home.
    Network diagnostics says the machine is connected to the internet (via Airport). Software Update cannot connect either.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi William,
    Try these suggestions, as they usually remedy the situation your trying to resolve:
    Open System Preferences>Network panel
    -Location - set up a personal location by clicking on the drop down menu and selecting "add a location". Use a name familiar to you. Once established, select "apply".
    -Next, click on the "Show" drop down menu and select Network Port Configurations. Check "Airport" and deselect the others, unless you use a BlueTooth device. Move Airport to the top of the list. Select "apply".
    -Back to the "Show" menu, select "Airport". Click on the TCP panel. There, enter on separate lines in the DNS servers box 4.2.2.1 and 4.2.2.2 (these are Verizon codes, available to anyone).
    In the Finder, go to your Utilities folder and select "Terminal". Once the screen is open copy/paste lookupd -flushcache and press return. This clears out the DNS cache. Once done, quit Terminal.
    Restart the computer/Safari.

  • When I take my IPAD to another country and try send an e-mail to friends around the world or the country I am I her message - server can not relay message but I can receive without any problem. What is the fix? All settings are correct I have no problems

    When I move from country to country. I can not send / reply to e-mails. All account settings are the same as when I was at home where there is no problem. Receiving is also not a problem when out side my resident country, what is the answer?

    The easiest fix would be to just use safari and a webmail interface.
    For example, I have yahoo in my mail app. But on some internet connections it just won't work, so I use safari to get to yahoo.com and access my mail that way.
    Your mail provider should have a web interface and you could use that.

  • Why does Lightroom say "file can not be found" but I can see the image?

    I have uploaded pics from my Fujifilm XPro1 but some of them can not be moved, exported or developed(?)  The image is there but I can't do anything to it.

    Thanks very much. I found the missing images in another folder on my desktop although when I originally uploaded from the camera card they did not automatically upload to Lightroom as usual.   I found another folder with icons came up as Lightroom and Lightroom2 with those images. When I opened it it automatically imported to Lightroom but now the Lr app only opens with that last download and my entire library of 2500+ images is empty!! and all of these new ones have "!” on the thumbnail.  Now what have I done, if it was me?

  • I can not print document but I can scan document

    Hi
    I have HP PAVILION N278SA model laptop and I have HP F4100 series all in one printer and using many years. I was printing some documents. I printed off one document from one of my email . Then when I clicked other email and wanted to print other document which was not attached file.  My laptop gave 'printer is off line' sign, since then I tried many word documents from my laptop or other email documents but I could not print off any of documents. When I want to scan a document, the printer let me scan the document. The scanning is not problem. My printer connected to my laptop via usb cable and also plugged in via cable on wall. I switched off printer few times and disconnected from my laptop around 30 seconds but it did not work. 
    I also went to 'devices and printers then click default printer which is F4100 series then open printer window.Then I went to 'what is printing' part then click print and start but did not work either. the printer does not print test page
    Thank you for your support

    Hi,
    Try following the tool below by selecting Fix Printing and check if that may rewsolve the problem:

    If that doesn't help, power off the printer and reboot your PC.
    Next open Devices and Printers and select See what's printing for the printer.
    From the Printer menu click on Cancel All Documents and ensure the print queue is clear, then turn the printer on again and try printing.

  • I can not send email but i can receive it????

    I am having trouble sending email out since i did the update anyone have any ideas??

    Hi wizzard66,
    I had the same problem.
    As outgoing server, you need to use the one provided by your telephone company and not the one provided by your ISP.
    For example, my carrier is Vodafone Italy and my SMTP is "smtp.net.vodafone.it" (without quotes).

  • Moved to a new house and now i can't send emails but i can receive them

    I just moved to a new house and now i can not send emails but i can receive them...

    New houses can do that. 
    We need more info - what email service is this issue about.  Do you use several (gmail, yahoo, icloud,...) and is this issue the same for all?  If you also use a computer or other device, is this issue common to them all?

  • An app called AYI from Facebook is on my dashboard. I can not remove it. Overtime I open dashboard the app immediately opens safari and goes to the app. I don't have enough time to remove it in the normal manner..

    OS X Yosemite on my iMac 27 inch Processor 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3,
    I have an app in my dashboard called AYI from Facebook.
    I can not remove it, every-time I open dashboard to remove it the app opens safari immediately and I can not delete the widget.
    I can not figure out how to manage this.

    This procedure will reset your Dashboard configuration to the default.
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Please triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    defaults delete com.apple.dashboard layer-gadgets && killall Dock
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing the key combination command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
    Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear below what you entered. You can then quit Terminal. Test.

    It's happened to me before as well. Try holding both lock(top right) and home buttons simultaneously until u see a slight flash of wight then just reboot it normally. If that doesn't work try restoring your device from itunes

  • New websites typed into address bar or clicked from bookmarks will not load, links searched in google can not be clicked but if opened in a new tab the tab opens but nothing loads. This seems to hapen on a daily basis and requires a computer restart.

    Firefox does not crash.
    It is not unresponsive.
    New websites can not be loaded.
    Websites currently open in tabs are still able to be used and continue to work fine... all links in running websites seem to work.
    Google is able to be loaded in a new tab (possibly because it had been run previously), search works but searched items can not be loaded.

  • When I try to open a pages document on my mac book pro it says "The file 'thesis.pages' couldn't be opened." But i can open the same file on my iPad and iPhone without a problem.

    When I try to open a pages document on my mac book pro it says "The file 'thesis.pages' couldn't be opened." But i can open the same file on my iPad and iPhone without a problem.

    Thanks very much for the instructions.  I encountered this problem this morning myself and the recommendation fixed the problem immediately.  When things like this happen with iCloud and Pages it makes me wonder if I might be better off using something else, having just recently had to fix the problem that the current Pages can't read documents I created with a much earlier version until they were "upgraded" by an interim version.

    does not let me add text to my verizon website. This adding text feature works well on internet explorer. I can click on add text, the box opens up but I can not type in the box for some unknown reason. What can be done to correct this problem ...

    I didn't search before, but "you are not alone" (the thread [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/747424 In Verizon's Sitebuilder for webpages, I can not edit text boxes when using Firefox. I do not have this problem if I use Internet Explorer. Is there a setting I can change in Firefox to correct this problem?] has 18 votes for "I have this problem, too).
    I can only guess about the reason... Firefox works with many websites' "rich text" editors, but ones that haven't been updated for five years may assume that Firefox is the old Netscape browser and use scripting techniques that don't work in Firefox.
    If Verizon has a different "basic" or HTML editor that you can tolerate using, you could try that. It might not be subject to the same incompatibilities.
    If I someday get a Verizon account, I will surely be looking into this further, but for now, it's hard to suggest anything else.
