Safari could not open because the server is not responding - my Internet is fine

My iPad suddenly is giving me the message "Safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding".  My Internet is working fine on other devices and other applications (i.e. Mail) seem to be working fine on the iPad.  I've turned the iPad off and on.  Any thoughts?

Can you get onto any site in Safari, or can't you even open the app properly ? You could see if any of the following help.
Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data and also Clear History
If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • I have an Ipad 2 and are having problems sending out emails in one of my email address. I always get a message reading the email was not sent because the server does not allow relaying. This is an email account POP3. I have no such problem with gmail.

    I have an Ipad 2 and are having problems sending out emails in one of my email address. This is a POP3 email Account? I always get a message reading that the email was not sent because the server does not allow relaying. I have no such problem with gmail. What could be the problem and how do I resolve this. Is it about settings?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

    IPad constantly reboots every 2-3 minutes, after full recovery is not activated to  wi-fi, and Itunes - for 20 days, Itunes says that the activation was not possible because the server is not available try again later. Ipad under warranty, but he was more than 6 months, so please call customer service apple can not. by DFU also restored Official Ipad bought in a store in Russia. When buying activated immediately.  IMEI 013311005943507. Help please! the official service Moscow  representation FDA ipad offer to send in the U.S. for $ 500!

    Hello this is happening to us also (minus the Bluetooth speaker).  We can't figure out what is causing the data usage.  I turned off mobile data as soon s I activated the device, and got the message that unless I am connected to WiFi.....(that is exactly what I wanted). We watched Netflix for about three hours, then the alerts started.  Like you we have many devices connected and never used over 2GB now all of a sudden we have used it in a matter of hours.  My husband called Verizon  and got the usual doubting Thomas response.  I understand that they don't know my device settings.  So over the phone we check all the settings and turned  off every possible culprit eating up the data and end the call.  By now I have purchased another gig for the month!  Assured we are NOT using mobile data, we continue on the IE path to bliss.  HA!  A few hours later I check the mobile data usage on the Verizon website and that darn thing is still using data.  After two more phone calls and two VERY uneventful trips to the local store we were told to take out the sim card.  This has stopped the data usage, but it defeats the purpose of having the data plan.  I could have just stuck with my Surface.  Verizon sent us a new sim card.  Its been installed and I have set my homepage to Verizon mobile data usage (just kidding) but I am on that site a lot.   I am surprised at the number of complaints about this device.  When we called the Verizon support acted as though this was the first time they had heard about this.   Loved your post, you should write for a living.

  • CS5 - Contribute could not connect because the server is down

    we have a client who has site hosted with us. They are using Contribute CS5 to connect to our web server and make changes to their site. They've been using Contribute for a month when all of a sudden they started receiving the error:
    Contribute could not connect because the server is down or not accepting connections. Please contact your administrator.
    Our server is up and running, their site is up, their ftp password is not locked and network said they can see can see end to end FTP transactions, logins and authentications. Communications between the application and the server is being allowed through all the various firewalls and devices along the way.
    I've done some research but cannot find a definitive resolution. Any help with your product would be appreciated.

    Can you please try clearing the Contribute preferences once?
    In Windows -
    Quit Contribute.
    Go  to C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local  Settings\Application Data\Adobe\ and delete the Contribute CS5 folder.  (In Windows Vista or Windows 7, go to  C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Adobe\ and delete the Contribute  CS5 folder.)
    Also, run reg delete "HKCU\Software\Adobe\Contribute 6" /f
    In Mac -
    Quit Contribute.
    Go to Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/ and delete Contribute CS5 folder.
    Also, go to Users/<username>/Library/Preferences and delete Adobe Contribute 6 Preferences file.
    Note: Doing this will remove all the existing connections in Contribute. It will be like a fresh installtion of Contribute.

  • Contribute 3: Could not connect because the server is down or not acceptiong connections.

    Hi,
    I have two customers who use Contribute 3 and are currently
    having the same problem:
    When they want to Publish a page, they get the following
    message: Contribute encountered a network or file system error.
    Then they can click on "Connect" and get: Contribute could
    not connect because the server is down or not accepting
    connections.
    They don't have an internet connection problem, there's no
    firewall that blocks Contribute.
    Regards,
    A.

    I have spent many hours trying to get reconnected to my site.
    My PC died in early January and I have not been able to get
    reconnected since. I get the same error message. My Network
    Aministrator has worked with me to see if there are any firewall or
    antivirus issues blocking the connection. I administer the site so
    have had to do elaborate work arounds to get users' pages
    published. I am using WebDAV. My question: I would like to try
    creating a new username and password (which is about the only thing
    I have not tried yet.) If I do so, and get connected, I should be
    ok with sending a new connection key to the users, is that
    correct??

  • Contribute could not connect because the server is down"

    My client tries to connect to the website with Contribute and
    gets the error "Contribute could not connect because the server is
    down" however I connect with no problems, using Contribute or
    Dreamweaver.
    I sent him a new connection key but the same error.
    Only problem I ever have is that sometimes I get a "can't
    save files to shared something-or-other" on exit after
    administrating, but I don't know if that's related or not - it
    never seems to affect anything at my end.
    Please help! Thanks

    OK, problem solved here:
    The access denied or file does not exist error was being
    caused by the fact there was a 0KB index file somehow.
    Once we got rid of that we still had the "Contribute could
    not connect because the server is down or not accpeting
    connections" error to get round.
    I had previously asked my client to go in an change the FTP
    settings in the Advanced screen to be Choose FTP server settings
    manually and select Use Passive FTP to connect to the server and
    make sure Use FTP Performance Optimization is not selected. I don't
    think this was ever done (and if it had been it would have saved me
    HOURS of time spent trying to diagnose this problem).
    Today I ended up backing up every contribute related file and
    folder on the server to my local machine then deleting them. After
    having done that I asked my client to create a new connection using
    the FTP details (not a connection key). That still didn't work so I
    got them to (and this time they did it) change the advanced FTP
    settings as above and BINGO! they can now publish.
    I'm guessing that if I had sent a connec tion key with the
    same settings specified in the Advanced FTP then it still would
    have worked.
    I hope this saves someone else some time. I am going to have
    a few beers now to celebrate.

  • "Could not open because it is either not supported....

    I'm trying to open a PDF from a site I frequent. When I attempt to download and open the file I get: "Could not open because it is either not supported file type or because it was damaged.
    I asked a customer service rep at the site if she was able to open the file I was attempting to open and she was able to do so.
    I can open other PDF's on my desktop. WIndows XP
    Any ideas?

    Hi,
    Can you please share the exact error message that you are receiving.
    As "~graffiti" also mentioned, it would be useful if you could let us know which version of Adobe Reader you are using and any PDF link which may not be working for you.

  • I can´t set the control panel iCloud. PC writes this: you can not connect because the server error occurred. What´s matters?

    I can´t set the control panel iCloud. PC writes this: you can not connect because the server error occurred. What´s matters?

    Whenever I log into icloud.com
    Using what version of which browser?
    iCloud.com requires Safari 6 or later, Firefox 22 or later, or Google Chrome 28 or later. Have you tried all of those?
    If you have, have you tried clearing your browser cache and cookies?
    For the first tine since 1989 I'm thinking about buying a PC.
    You'd have exactly the same problems on an 8 year old PC too. It's a bit unreasonable to expect such an old Mac to continue to be compatible as software is constantly updated.
    Saying that, I'm still able to access iCloud.com successfully in Safari v5.0.6 on a PowerPC Mac running Mac OS X 10.5.8, so the problem you're having is likely to be a browser issue, not something inherently wrong with the computer.
    Since all this crap started, Mail won't download my Mac.com or me.com email.
    The iCloud.com website is totally unconnected to Mail's ability to download email via IMAP. Have you checked the mail server settings are correctly setup and up-to-date?

  • I cannot email photos from within iPhoto (v. 9.5.1). When I hit send I get a message: "Your email did not go through because the server did not reply." This happens for both my iCloud account and my Shaw account. What to do???

    Are you able to email from Mail with those two accounts?  If so:
    1 - go to iPhoto's Accounts preference pane and delete both accounts. Now add them back and try again.
    2 - a better solution IMO is to set Mail as the email client for iPhoto is iPhoto's General preference pane.  This gives you better access to your contacts, a sent copy of all emails and, if you want a layout similar to iPhoto's, photo layouts located in Mail's stationary.

  • Final Cut Pro X (10.1.1) can't be opened because "the image is not recognized".

    I have tried to download the trail version of Final Cut Pro X (10.1.1) twice but every time it has been downloaded my computer tells me it can't be opened because "the image is not recognized".
    Do any of you have a similar problem or know a solution?

    Also having this issue, Im on OSX Yosimite 10.10.1 trying to download the 30 day trial version of Final Cut Pro 10.1.4
    MacBook Pro (13-inch, Early 2011)
    Processor: 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5
    Mem: 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    I have downloaded the 30 day trial of Final Cut Pro from https://www.apple.com/ie/final-cut-pro/trial/
    The file which gets downloaded is "FinalCutProTrial10.1.4.dmg"
    The size of this file is 2,147,487,419 bytes (as viewed in the inspector)
    I would be interested to hear from anyone who installed this successfully whether the DMG file was the exact same size (although I have a feeling I wont hear anything as most people would delete the DMG file after installing).

    2009 MacBook Pro eh? It looks like your hard drive has failed. Three years is pretty standard. Often, then only hint you have is catastrophic failure.
    If you put the old hard drive into an external enclosure or similar device, you may still be able to migrate your data from it. Just because it won't boot doesn't mean you can't still read from it. Still, I wouldn't keep trying it. As long as you are buying a new hard drive, may as well get sometime to use with Time Machine too.
