Safari can't open a website because of Mac OS X

Safari can’t open the specified address.
Safari can’t open “mms://mirrors.martin.bitstop.ph/dwiz” because Mac OS X doesn’t recognize Internet addresses starting with “mms:”.

To read mms feeds you need Windows Media Player or
some other apps:

  • Safari can't open a website because Mac OS X doesn't recognize Internet addresses starting with "http:". WHAT??

    Today I have been receiving intermittent error messages while running Safari v5.0.6 on my iMac running Mac OS X v 10.5.8 that Safari cannot open internet sites starting with https: or http: because OS X does not recognize https: or http:. It seems to be happening when I try to click on links within pages directing me to other info (on secure web pages).
    Clearly there is something very weird going on, as obviously this site is one that starts with https: and I am here posting to the community. Has anyone else seen this?
    What is this all about? It worked fine yesterday - I have made no changes to anything. Safari has been running like a slug the past few weeks. I have Apple auto update set to check for updates daily - so I truly have no idea were this is coming from. Any guidance would be apprecited! Thx -

    Hello  - anyone have any comments for me on this? Thx -

  • Safari can't open the page because the server where this page is located isn't responding

    so i try going to gamefly.com and when i get to the website it won't let me browse the website or get into my account unless i'm useing my iphone with 3g i get the error message safari can't open the page because the server where this page is located isn't responding i tried it on every mac i have n its the samething i clear'd out my cache and cookes and even used different web broswers n still the same is there anyway to get this resolved i would be much aprecited thanks in advance.

    Launch the 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 page that opens.
    Drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window:
    curl -I http://www.gamefly.com
    Press return. You should almost instantly get several lines of output below what you entered, the first of which begins with something like this:
    HTTP/1.1
    If there's no output within ten seconds, consider that a failure. You can then quit Terminal. Post your results.

  • "Safari can't open the page because it can't find the server"

    I just bought my iPhone. The first time I attempted to log onto my home wireless network (US Robotics Wireless Router) the iPhone performed perfectly. However, the next time I attempted to logon and surf it gave me the "Safari can't open the page because it can't find the server" error message. I tried a variety of things which didn't work. I called the Apple Tech Support. Turning off the router and rebooting it was the only thing that worked. I thought my problem was resolved because after cycling the router the iPhone worked great once again. But . . . later the same day I attempted to connect to the router and the same thing happened and I got the error message. I attempted to power cycle the router just like before but this time it did not work! Help! Bad router? Wrong settings on router or iPhone?

    Do you have other wireless devices connected to this same router? Do they work?
    I really can't help you much but to say that when my router exhibited this issue it was accross the board (all notebooks would connect immediately following a router restart, but would loss connectivity until I rebooted the router again). In my case the only solution that was permanent was to replace the router.
    You may also try restarting the phone and the router, setup security - WEP - (or disable security) on the router and phone, and/or try a different wi-fi channel (may actually help).

    No guarantee but try tapping Settings / Safari. Clear the History, Cookies, and Cache. Restart the iPad.
    And try here..   Apple - Support - iPad - Wi-Fi

  • Safari can't open any website

    Safari can't open any website and it shows a message about not connecting to the server. What should i do to fix it?

    I could - rarely - find where a 3rd party product update may have some adverse side effect, but rare.
    Maybe Safari 5.1 for Windows added and closed security but wasn't tested enough to see what effects it would have.
    Consider, seems every day the same question is posed and asked.
    There is a command to flush Windows DNS I saw....
    I just tried to go to one thread and it vanished "Looking for something" and blank page now.

  • Why do I keep getting the message, "Safari can't open the page because Safari can't find the server"?

    Why do I keep getting the message, "Safari can't open the page "www.blahblah.com" because Safari can't find the server" and you can replace the website with almost any I try to open. Any ideas or solutions?

    Do you have other wireless devices connected to this same router? Do they work?

  • Safari can't open Google website

    For the last couple of days, my default search engine (www.google.com) was not searching, and giving me following error:
    Safari can’t open the page “http://www.google.com/” because Safari can’t connect to the server “www.google.com”.
    I went through pages in support about problems with third-party plugins. I've tried un-checking "Enable plug-ins"; Resetting Safari; Emptying Cache; Re-starting Safari and computer, nothing has worked. Other search engines are working e.g. bing, yahoo. I can't open any of google websites from .com or .co.uk or gmail. I've just tried using Firefox and it also can't open google websites.
    I'm using Safari 5.0.3 (5533.19.4) on a Mac OS X 10.5.8.
    I had Glims installed on my machine, which I just un-installed it; re-started; re-set safari, but still can't open google website.
    As far other websites are concern, so far all the websites which are in frequent use can open. Is there problem with Google, Safari/Firefox (browser) or my mac (virus or something)?
    Thanks a lot everyone.
    PS: Oh yes. I got update on Safari yesterday, is that causing any issues?

    I had the same problem too.
    I searched by using bing.com (fortunately MS search engin has helped me )
    I found a archived post https://discussions.apple.com/message/11061084#11061084
    I did what Carolyn said and I also checked the PeerGuardian app
    but I don't think it's because of this app that my connection wasn't possible, because I rarely use it.
    Et voilà, everything works now.
    I'd like to thank Carolyn and Rave for allowing me to do not format my dear iBook G4 that I haven't formated for over 3 years!!! (I've done the whole backup of my iBook)

    I have experienced the same problems Brand new iMac for Christmas came with Tiger installed did and update to Leopard that came with the computer. Can't connect to certain websites and some won't load the associated graphics, i.e. apple.com, yahoo.com, and gmail. Called Apple support they suggest resetting safari, worked for a couple of hours. Called back and they suggested power off iMac disconnect the cat5 from the computer, power down the router, power down the dsl modem, wait 3 minutes. Then restart the modem, router and then connect the cat. They explained that this would help the iMac correct the problem of connecting to the DNS server. This solution was also short lived, a few hours. I also have experienced problems associated with servers in Mail and iTunes. total time on phone with support including wait time 3 hours. This is getting old. Any ideas on workarounds I am happy to try. I will download firefox and give that a try. I have two other laptops one windows, and the other a MacBook and have not problems connecting to the internet.

    You can't use Safari to download iPad apps. Only use iTunes/App Store.

    Restart the router. If there's no change, see below.
    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • New MacBook Air: Safari can't open the page because the server where this page is located isn't responding

    Hi there,
    I purchased a new MacBook Air on Sunday and am using OS X Yosemite 10.10.
    Unfortunately since then I am having problems with connectivity with certain websites.  It is not just a problem with my MacBook Air, because I also have a MacBook and an iPhone which won't let me access those websites either with this network.  I haven't tried to access them from any other locations but I mainly use my devices at home so want to get this fixed.  I believe that it is a problem with my connection not the devices as other websites such as this, Facebook, twitter, google, etc all work fine.
    I have checked on http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com and it's just me!
    If relevant, the certain websites are futurelearn.com as well as bluehost.com and sites that run through bluehost.  I had problems with Bluehost not loading yesterday but Futurelearn was working absolutely fine yesterday - today I cannot access it at all.
    Not sure what to do! Please help!
    Thanks in advance.

    Restart your internet modem and router then try Safari.
    And check the firewall. Open System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Firewall.
    If it's on, click Firewall Options
    You may need to click the padlock icon bottom left side of the Firewall tab to proceed.
    If restarting the modem and router don't help, try this DNS server.
    Open System Preferences > Network > Advanced > DNS
    Click + and type:
    208.67.222.222
    Click + again and do the same.
    208.67.220.220
    Click OK.
    Quit then relaunch Safari to test.
