Safari can't download file

I am trying to access my work using the Citrix receiver and it works well on my Mac.  However on my iPhone 4, I get an error message that Safari can;t download the file.  I beleive the file is a *.ica file to launch the Citrixonline plugin or the Citrix receiver app.  Any suggestions?  BTW it works well on a co-workers Android phone.... imagine the grief I am getting!  :-)

Ok I guess I should have made it more clear.  I am using the suggested app.  I have to point to the CAG server in Safari, like I do on my Mac and like my Android brethren.  After I log in, I click the link to launch the actual Citrix receiver (or the citrix online plugin) to get to the Windows desktop, and Safari says can't download the file.  I was unaware on my Mac that a file was being downloaded, which I suspect is the *.ica file, as it happens very quickly and a small window opens that is the Citrix receiver or the online plugin and VIOLA the Win desktop appears.
If I open the Citrix receiver app on the iPhone, there are settings that need to be entered and at this time my higher up IT support won't provide that info, as the iPhone is not approved officially and they won't offer me any info.
I just figured it'd work like it did on my co-workers Android as the process is the same for him and believe it or not for him "it just worked".  :-)

  • I am trying to download a ringtone on my iphone, keep getting message "safari can't download file."

    How do I download a ringtone? I keep getting the message "safari can't download file".

    To add a ringtone, download it from your computer and make sure it is a .m4r file. Once this is done, add it to your iTunes library (it will go in the ringtones section). Then sync your phone making sure that it syncs ringtones as well (check it in the ringtones tab).
    Then in your sound preferences on your iPhone change the ringtone.

  • Getting error: Safari can't download file intermittently

    I purchased an Ipad (original) for my father in law and it will sometimes give an error ' Safari can not download file' and it will not go to any website. Weatherbug won't connect. Any app that connects to the internet does the same thing. Connecting to the internet thru airport express connected to a dsl modem. Other windows based machine connected to the internet fine. Ideas?

  • Safari can't download file when trying to download movies

    Safari responds with "safari can't download file' when I use download app to download movies . I don't have issues downloading apps or searching net.  Would be grateful for assistance.

    You can't download something from Safari to your iPad.  iPad is a closed system, and not subject to virus intrusion.  Now, if for example you have a Kindle app and you go directly to Kindle in Safari and using your ID you buy a book, the book will download to your Kindle account, which you could then open your kindle App on your iPad and read the book you downloaded in your App.  But you can't go into Safari and just download a book or a movie directly to your iPad from the net........

  • HT4623 I tried several times to download iTunes version 6.3.1 but it says safari can't download file. What do I do next?

    Need help installing iTunes version 6.3.1 or higher on my iPhone 4S. It tells me that safari can't open the file.

    You don't update Safari on your phone, it's built into the iOS.  You update Safari on your computer, and the latest version is 10.7, not 6.3.1; available here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/.

  • Can't download file from bank. Error safari cant download qif

    I am trying to find a bank program that let's me run a budget and check register. I am trying to download a qif file to import my bank information but I get an errorbthat says safari can not download that type of file

    Just a theory but I think it holds some water, you can't download the file because you don't have an app that will let you save the file to on the iPad. I think that makes sense. I just downloaded a .qif from my bank site as a test and I was able to open the file in DropBox - not in any useful way - but I was able to save the downloaded file. My point is that if you choose one the apps the Dah-Veed has suggested to you, then you should be able to download the file if they work with the .qif format and I will trust Dah-Veed on that point.
    If there is no app that can handle the file on your iPad, you more than likely cannot download the file and that's why you get the message. You are "putting the cart before the horse" by trying to download the file.

  • Will a program mention for MAC OSX be allowed to download on the newest iPad version. If so, how do I get past the "safari" can not download this file?

    Will a program mention for MAC OSX be allowed to download on the newest iPad version. If so, how do I get past the "safari" can not download this file?

    No, because iPads do not run Mac OS X. They run iOS.

  • What causes "SAFARI can not download this file"?

    I have purchased and downloaded books from WWW.Baen.com in the past with no trouble. When I now purchase and then try to download a book I get this message--"SAFARI can not download this file".
    What has caused this and how do I correct it?
    Thanks

    Fine. Why did this site all of a sudden become incompaatable and how do I correct it. I have not changed anything on my iPad except to install APPLE's updates.

  • Can't download file from Gmail...

    I have the latest version of Safari and now I can't download files from my Gmail...

    Might be a cookies, cache, extensions, or plug-ins 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 didn't help, 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.
    If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
    Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect:  Allow plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.

  • Can't download file from any browser and download manager

    i confused wit my MBP, becaus MBP can't download file from internet ( via USB modem & Wi-fi)..
    can you help me to fix it ??
    i use iGetter, and it not responding to download, safari too..

    I was able to download the trial from rarlab.com. What happens when you click on a download? You need to make sure you select to download the Mac version. The .exe files do not run on a Mac.
    BTW, you might want to check out GUI Tar  https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/14503/gui-tar
    The other two sites also work for me. What exactly happens when you click on a link to download? Do you know how to find your downloads?

  • I can't download files or videos, I get the response "The object is blocked" As far as I know I have removed or disabled all security programs

    I am unable to play streaming video, and can't download anything. I have removed or disabled all of my security programs.

    HI Phillip,
    On the other I am wholly unable to download the file from either Safari or Firefox
    Let's try one browser at a time. Open a Finder window. Select your Home folder in the Sidebar on the left. Then open the Library folder then the Safari folder. Move the Downloads.plist file from the Safari folder to the Trash. Relaunch Safari.
    If that didn't help, from your Safari menu bar click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 7 buttons, click Reset.
    Now launch Firefox. From the Firefox menu bar click Firefox / Preferences then select the
    Advanced tab then the Network tab. Click: Clear Now.
    Relaunch Firefox.
    If nothing above has helped either browser, login to your Mac to another user account. Try Safari there. If you can't download files from Safari there, then it's a system wide problem. Boot from your install disc. Run Disk Utility to verify and if necessary, repair any errors on the startup disk.
    Help here for Disk Utility: The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?

  • I can´t download files with Real Player whwn I upsated Firefox.

    I was told to update Firefox whichI did. After that I can´t download files with Real Player which I could before I updated.

    You cannot download files to the iPad via Safari.  You download them on your computer and synch them through iTunes.

  • Tried to watch a video, says safari can't download

    Safari can't download videos,

    Correct. Safari doesn't download videos or any files except PDFs and Images.
    However it can play videos if they are in one of the formats it supports. What format was the video you were trying to watch in? What website is it on?

    Also the audible app is for iPhone 5 and above
    According to https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/audiobooks-from-audible/id379693831?mt=8 it only requires iOS 5 or later and it is "optimized" for iPhone 5. I think it will likely work well on your iPhone 4.
    Compatibility: Requires iOS 5.0 or later. Compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. This app is optimized for iPhone 5.
