"Safari Can't Open Page" but the page opens in other browsers??

Hope someone can help with this strange issue. I get the message:
"Safari can't open the page https://secure-en-%0aadmc.premiumtv.co.uk/internalLogin/loginProcess/0,,13061,00 .html because the page address is invalid"
However the same page opens in Chrome.
The page prior to this step is a log in page where I enter my username and password for that site, as soon as I hit enter the error message appears. It's as if it doesn't even try to open the page, the message appears that quickly.
I have enabled cookies, emptied the cache, re-started and searched the forums for similar issues. The fact that it opens on other browers is what's getting to me. I've only just moved over to Safari after being a long time Chrome user and ideally only want to use one browsers and not have to switch between the two.
I'm running the Safari 6.0 on Mountain Lion.
Appreciate any help!

This is the login page. When I enter my username and password I get the error message:
"Safari can't open the page https://secure-en-%0aadmc.premiumtv.co.uk/internalLogin/loginProcess/0,,13061,00 .html because the page address is invalid"
When I do the same in Chrome, it lets me in with no error message. Once I'm successfully logged in (in Chrome) the web page address is: http://www.en.bpl.admcsport.com/page/Home/
The page the Safari is showing as an error message must be some intermediary page used to validate the login which Safari doesnt like for some reason.

It just won't load no matter what i've done, but the internet works on other browsers

I checked forums and tried all the things i saw, it still will not load, and i don't want to reinstall and lose all my bookmarks

Did you check your security software (firewall)?<br />
A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.<br />
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox.<br />

"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).

Safari can't open the page on craigslist

Safari can’t open the page “https://post.craigslist.org/sea/S/for/skc/x/PL7Yes3svlrxTGf6/qpeeb” because the server unexpectedly dropped the connection, which sometimes occurs when the server is busy. You might be able to open the page later.
thanks for responding. above is the message i get when posting. and its only with craigslist so far. i even added the /index at the end but it didn't work.

HT4157 My iPad. Oonnects to other wifi it used to connect to my work wifi but it will. Not connect now what is work I am connected with my iPhone but iPad will. Not connect or it says safari can not open page

I can connect my iPhone to my work wifi but when I try to connect my IPad it will not connect. It says safari can not open page. What's up with that I have used IPad connected to work wifi before

Additional things to try.
Try this first. 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.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
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
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Safari can't open the page https

Frustrating to say the least. About a week ago whilst in Google mail, Safari failed to open an email instead it opened a page displaying the message Safari can’t open the page “https"//mail.google.com" etc
A page refresh also failed to open the page as did a my attempt to "Sign out".
Later that day the same problem occurred when I was using my bank's website. Oddly, when I turned to Camino and it too failed to open Googlemail and the bank's site. On my MacBook both sites worked from both applications. Add if I use a different user account on my Mac Pro, I don't have the problem.
My account is a “Standard” user. A logout and back in and it works again, a reboot and it works again but after a couple of hours the problem returns:
Any help welcomed as the following steps have failed to resolve the issue:
Empty Safari cache
Reset Safari
Uninstall Safari 4.0 beta and re-install Safari 3
Re-install Safari 4.0 beta
Swaped ethernet connection on my Mac Pro
Verify Disk Permissions
Repair Disk Permissions
Delete website history with "Adobe, Website Storage Settings panel"
Reset router
Rebooted Smoothwall
ClamXav found nothing
DNSChanger Removal Tool found nothing
iServices Trojan Removal Tool found nothing
removed .GlobalPreferences.plist
Thx

Hi John
Google Mail has been problematic on Safari 4. There are a number of threads in the Safari 4 Beta forum addressing the issue.
Thanks for posting the steps you have taken so far.
In a broader sense, security certificates are at the root of secured sites functioning. Those certificates are part of the Keychain file in HD>System>Library>Keychains. Perhaps, the keychain file needs repair. Open Keychain Access in your Applications>Utilities folder. In the Keychains Menu, select "Keychain First Aid">repair. If any errors appear, rerun until you get a clean pass.
If no errors appear, you may have to reestablish the keychain entries in your Standard account. Do you have administrative privileges assigned to that account?
Also, I'm not familiar with Smoothwall's operation/setup, however, some tweaking of its settings may be necessary. Here's some dated technospeak about Smoothwall and Safari.

Safari can't open the page because safari can't establish a secure connection to the server

No guarantee but try tapping Settings / Safari. Clear the History, Cookies, and Cache. Restart the iPad.

Safari can not open the page

When I tried to redeem apps via FreeAppDaily (app) and FreeMyApps (web) today.
when it jumps from FreeAppDaily and FreeMyApps to the redeem page, It pops up "URL is invalid, so Safari can not open the page".
I had successfully redeem apps in FreeMyApps previously.
I tried to restart, change wifi network, clear cookie and reset network setting, but they are useless.

Yes, I can access other Web sites in Safari
I can download free apps through FreeAppDaily and FreeMyApps.
for FreeAppDaily, I get the redeem code from the app and then redeem the app from AppStore sucessfully.
but for FreeMyApps, I sent a email to the developer, the thier reply cannot solve my problem.

Lion Safari: Are you getting grey "Safari can't open the page."?

Hello all,
Ever since upgrading to Lion, I notice sometimes when I click a link to go to another website from the original article/URL, I may get a grey page, nothing loads but with a grey large Safari logo with the mesage: Safari can't open the page. (smaller text) Safari can't open the page "http://www......" because the server unexpectedly dropped the connection. This sometimes occurs when the server is busy. Wait for a few minutes, and then try again.
I never have this encounter in Snow Leopard's Safari, or maybe then the page just keep and try and keep loading, while in Lion I straight away get this "in my face".
Is anyone else getting this too?
Thanks.

HowWow,
Yup, I'm getting it too. I just posted a thread on the same topic: https://discussions.apple.com/message/16077250
Hopefully this will get resolved soon.
I wish the error logs were useful, but for me ~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter contains nothing for Safari!
If you get any answer, I'd appreciate if you update my thread.
Thanks

"Safari can't open the page"

Whats going on?... I was about to "upload" a slideshow onto "youtube.com".
When I pressed the "submit" button in order to "upload" the slideshow,
I then get a message says: "Safari can't open the page"...
But, two days prior to this, I had no problem uploading another slideshow to "youtube.com".... it all had went smoothly..
I'm using Safari version 2.0.4
And, this has happened previously, but not that often in the past..
Any suggestions?
Thanks

I do believe my problem is solved!...
Please understand this: What solved my problem may not work for you, unless you've had the exact same mathematic computer constipation as I had...
This is what worked for me!.... Either "youtube.com", or "Safari" could not read the "file" (movie format) that I sent to it!...
In my case, after getting this "error message" above, I then decided to send the movie in a "Quicktime" file (movie).....and this time "youtube.com" did accept my slideshow!... Super great!..
So far, I've only sent (uploaded) two (2) movies to " youtube.com"..
The first one I sent was from "iphoto", which is in the "quicktime" format, so I had no problem with that upload...
The second one I sent was the one that I got the "Safari can't open the page".
And, that one was an "imovie" , which little did I know, was the "wrong" format...
So, now, in order to not make my live miserable, I'll be playing it safe, and most surely will send my brilliant works of art to youtube.com in the "quicktime" format....
So, this solution to my dreadful dilemma may or may not work for you.
But, it may work for someone, I hope...
Good luck, and God Bless America!......
Sal Pedi.....

"Safari can't open the page" messages

Since updating to Safari 3.1.1 (5525.18), I get an awful lot of sites returning messages like this:
"*Safari can’t open the page.*
Safari can’t open the page “http://my.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?MyeBay&LogUID=19264405&CurrentPage=MyeBaySum mary&migrateVisitor=3”. The error was: “cannot decode raw data” (NSURLErrorDomain:-1015) Please choose Report Bugs to Apple from the Safari menu, note the error number, and describe what you did before you saw this message."
Sometimes clicking REFRESH brings up the page, but usually the same message repeats.
Any clues?

Safari not loading "safari can't open the page"

I can connect to the wireless network but when i open safari it says "safari can't open the page becasue it can't find the server" other internet apps don't work either.

I have reset to WiFi manually and it now does not go into WiFi--It stays in Edge, unless I softboot it. Don't think I should have to do that everytime. It see the WiFi network and even has it selected in settings, but E is still show at top of screen. It reverts when iphone goes to sleep. This may be a problelm with new update. I just bought my phone yesterday 9.19 and it upgraded. Now I have these problems along with some others who upgraded. HELP,
Re Boot, Re Set okay, but it if reverts everytime, that is a waste of time.

Periodically "safari can't open the page" - not a ISP issue

Periodically I will have an issue where I click on a link and anything from the website cannot be opened for about 2 minutes. I get the following message "Safari can’t open the page “https://xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/” because Safari can’t find the server “xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx”."
Here are some important notes:
I can access the website on my phone while the issue is occurring on my macbook pro
I can access all other websites
The issue lasts for about 2-3 minutes and all webpages with that address will not work
Any thoughts how to resolve the issue?

(Presumably you regularly empty your Safari cache by deleting the following file: Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/cache.db and also clear your History)
One reason for a slowness in page loading may be the 'DNS Pre-fetching' feature of Safari 5.x as is described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3408?viewlocale=en_US
You can cancel DNS pre-fetching by going to Terminal and typing:
defaults write com.apple.safari WebKitDNSPrefetchingEnabled -boolean false
You have to restart Safari for it to take effect.
If Safari seems to hang for ages:
If you have a lot of tabs open and/or a lot of pages running Flash, Safari can sometimes 'hang', requiring a restart of Safari. This can often be inconvenient, and as it is rarely Safari itself that is hanging but merely one of its plug-ins, usually Flash, there is a way using Terminal to restart the plug-ins (without restarting Safari and losing your tabs) by quitting the WebPluginHost process:
Open the Terminal from the Utilities folder in /Applications and type killall -9 WebKitPluginHost
Note that this command kills all Safari plug-ins, not just Flash. All plug-ins should start back up when you reload the page. Then go back to Safari and refresh any pages that were using the Flash plug-in. This also fixes the Beachball of Death. Try this whenever Safari gets slow or freezes. The latest versions of Flash 10.1 and later appear to have improved the situation somewhat, but haven't completed eliminated it.
For this and other reasons Apple switched their websites to HTML in January 2011: http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/11/01/26/apple_revamps_its_public_website_u sing_html5.html
The main reason I mentioned your ISP is that their servers may be too busy, which is why I suggested Open DNS.

Can't fix this - Safari can't open the page

i am connected to the Internet and some website will open others won't, it depends. I keep getting the message Safari can't open the page. It is specifically with the links, I have tested this on my other computer and I can get on the website fine. I have been looking on forums but have not found anything that works? Any ideas

Go step by step by step and test.
1. Power off the router. Unplug it from the wall. Wait a while.
    Plug it back to the wall. Power the router on. Wait until all the lights are lit properly. It will take a while.
    Restart the computer.
    Start up in Safe Mode.

2. Delete Caches.db
    Close all windows and quit all applications.
    Hold "option" key down and click "Go" menu in the Finder menu bar.
    Select "Library" from the dropdown.
    Library > Caches > com.apple.Safari > Caches.db
    Right click the Caches.db file and select "Move To Trash.
    Close windows and relaunch Safari.
3. Empty Caches
    Safari > Preference > Advanced
    Checkmark the box for "Show Develop menu in menu bar".
    Develop menu will appear in the Safari menu bar.
    Click Develop and select "Empty Caches" from the dropdown.
4. Delete Cookies
    Safari > Preferences > Privacy > Cookies and other website data:
    Click the “Details” button.
    Remove all cookies except from Apple, your internet service provider and banks.
5. Safari > Preferences > Extensions
    Turn off Extensions if any and launch Safari again to test.
    Turn on those one by one and test.

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?
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).
