Safari cannot open page because server cannot be found

I'm having problems on Macbook Pro with Yosemite. Most, if not all webpages cannot be opened in safari because the "server cannot be found." I've tried to troubleshoot a few different ways by googling the issue.
Tried running diagnostics, no issues found and no solutions offered
Tried monitoring connection while attempting to browse web, no issues detected
Reset computer
Reset router
Turned WiFi on/off
Cleared browsing data, history etc.
Tried using Chrome, doesn't work either
I've read that this could be a DNS issue, don't fully understand what that means. One solution offered is to "reset network settings" but I can't find where to do that on my Mac. Another option is to "delete current DNS servers" but I am not able to click them in the advanced network settings window. Any other ideas?
Thank you!

    Hi Demo,
    Yes, I have not made myself clear, I apologise.
    I have tried downloading apps from itunes in order to set up a game for my son, when I go to click on a link, be this in itunes, or on the web, Safari revolts back informing the address is invalid. I read by coping a link and pasting into the URL, this would do it, but not so.
    My goal then, is to install Minecraft for my son, I would then download an app to allow this but I am unable to get this far due to Safari insulting the address I ask it to go to
    The iPad is first generation
    OS 5.1.1 Software up to date.
    Thank you in advance for your time

  • When trying to update app I get a message saying " Safari cannot open page because address is invalid" help! I use iPad 1. Thank you.

    I have the iPad basic first edition. For some reason my app store app is missing. On my games when I tried to update the apps I get a message that says safari cannot open page because address is invalid, but this happens even when I click directly on the prompt message that comes up when loading game. Also, it seems that my app store app has been deleted? I don't know how to get it back. When I try to download it I get the same safari message as afore mentioned.

    Swipe to seethe farthest home screen to the left. Type in App Store in the search box and see if the app may have been accidentally placed into a folder with another app.
    You cannot download apps using Safari.

  • Safari couldn't open page because server stopped responding

    i keep getting this error when i try to open a page on safari
    SAFARI COULDN'T OPEN PAGE BECAUSE SERVER STOPPED RESPONDING
    It happens whether on wi-fi or cellular data -

    Are you able to use other apps that require internet access?
    If so:
    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.
    Clear the browser cache: Settings App > Safari > Clear History + Clear Cookies and Data.

  • Iphone 4 error message while in wifi "safari can not open page because server stopped responding" after iOS6 update

    I am currently using my Iphone 4 in wifi networks only after canceling my cell phone plan. Over the weekend I did the IOS6 update on the iphone as well as updated my macbooks itunes and OS X operating systems updates that were available.  Since that my iphone's safara app won't connect.  After it trys to connect for a minute or 2 I recieve the message: "safari can not open page because server stopped responding".  However ALL other apps that require the phone to be connected to wifi for use work properly, i.e app store, imessage, pinger, facebook, etc.  I have checked all network setting and they looked right to me.  Anything I'm missing, ideas to try, or am I sol (lol)?  Safari worked perfectly before the update so I thought I might have done something wrong or forgot to change some type of setting.
    Thank you!

    If you can access Facebook while on Wifi at home, but you are unable to access it while away running on your carrier's 2G network, I could phone your carrier.  You have already completed the Cellular Data troubleshooting for the iPhone, so any limitations keeping your from connecting to Facebook over cellular will have to be answered by your carrier.

  • Safari Cannot Open Page Because Not Connected To Internet

    Nearly every time I open Safari I get a page that says Safari cannot open the page because you are not connected to the internet but I am connected wirelessly to the Airport Extreme. Each time this happens I click on Network Diagnostics and I go through the procedure and I get connected again. Should I need to do this nearly every time I open Safari or is there something I could do so I don't have to do this every time? It connects but only after I go through Network Diagnostics.

    All I can think of is it's not saving the configurations you have set up for it.

  • Safari Can't Open Page Because Server Stopped Responding

    I am trying to connect to a web site for Deal or No Deal Mobile game. When I try to access it, I get an message that Safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding. I sent the text as instructed and rec'd a repsonse back with the web site. I have tried accessing it from the text message and also by typing it in. Same reponse both times.

    Try this... tap Settings / General / Reset / Reset Network Settings.
    Then restart the iPad. Press and hold the Sleep / Wake button until you see the red slider then swipe the slider to power off. Then press and hold the Sleep / Wake button until you see the Apple logo.

  • Safari cannot open page because ipad is not connected to the internet

    Hi, I updated too iOS7 recently and everything was fine (except iBooks!) until yesterday, when I got the message saying "Safari could not open the page ... because your iPad is not connected to the internet." I'm using wireless connection, and my iMac is working with no problem. Have tried most suggested things here like rebooting, resetting all settings etc. but am getting nowhere. Would appreciate any assistance, Thank you.

    reset network settings...settings>gen>reset>reset network..
    if that does not work.
    backup the device on itunes.
    restore with itunes.
    setup as new on the device. then try it.
    if it works try restoring from the backup,, if it does not work after that then the backup as a bug.
    you then would set the device up as new again and just use it without the back up

  • My 3G cannot open page in safari because the address is invalid

    I have had to reset my 3G iPhone and it is saying that it cannot open page because the address is invalid in Safari.  Can someone guide me through how to fix this situation?
    Thank you

    Thanks kiltedtim, that was really helpful. Why didn't I think of that?? But funny enough despite the error message it still loads the page because the address is CORRECT. But it means acknowledging an unnecessary error message for every page you visit! Useful answers please...
