Unable to open pages on Safari 4!

I can't get Safari to work... It won't open any pages, I went to preferences & changed it to accept cookies but still won't open anything. I've tried Google, Yahoo, Facebook ect... I always get this message: "Safari can’t open the page because the server where this page is located isn’t responding."
I've deleted the cache, re-installed it twice, restarted the computer... Still no luck! Any idea what's going on?
I'm running Safari 4 on Windows Vista Home Premium. My other browsers work (Safari/Avant) so it's not my internet.

IE on my computer is all messed up, it doesn't work & when you try to close it off it tells you it saved a tab & has Chinese symbols... Have to use task manager to close it off.
... I've seen reports of that on the web. Sometimes it seems to show up only in a single user account on a PC.
I'm beginning to think that there might be some issue about the network/internet settings on your current user account that is bollixing up all your browsers (except Firefox). Let's check to see if all the connection/display issues are confined to a single user account.
1. From the Start menu, choose Control Panel.
2. Open Add or remove user accounts (If using the Classic View in Windows Vista, open User Accounts. Then open Manage another account).
3. Select Create a new account and follow the instructions to complete the account setup process. Give the new account full administrative rights
4. Once the new account is created, choose Log Off from the Start menu. (Do not use Fast User Switching to get into the new account.)
5. Log into the newly created user account.
Do any of IE, Chrome, Avant or Safari work any better in the new user account?

I keep getting "unable to open page" in Safari it's most annoying! Can anyone help please.

i haven't done anything in console. i don't really
understand that part of computing.
Console is not something you do anything in, it records what is going , where it logs errors, crashes et.. and where troubleshooting can start from.
I mentioned Looking to see if you had errors logged.
i can access any other site just fine.
The problem, again is Not with Safari or other Browsers, if other sites are fine.
i could understand that it may be the site if i
wasn't able to connect to it from other sources. the
computer are surely online or i would not be posting.
1) I would not be able to know which computer you are posting from.
2) Again I can connect to the site and browse, does not mean there is not something wrong with it.My console produce errors as I have mentioned.
also i just got off the phone with Apple Care tech
support. it seems that because i can access other
sites this is not an issue they will support. so,
That is is because the issue us NOT with Safari , rather your ISP, or your Network Settings.
that means that my problem as well as all similar
problems on this board will not get the attention

Problem with Pages. I have recently been unable to open Pages, or any documents from Pages on my iMac. Pages seems to be in the Cloud and can open a list of the documents in Pages, but can't open any of those documents.

Recently unable to open Pages or any documents therein. It seems to be stuck in the Cloud. Although I can open a list of the documents I can not open any of the documents.

The answer is simple... If you want to remedy this, then don't save them as PDFs.
Word opens Word and text documents. Not PDFs.

Unable to open Pages after new hard drive

I am unable to open pages after recently having to get my hard drive replaced. I have a time machine that I could get the application/files off of, but when I try to open it it comes up with the message:
"Check with the developer to make sure Pages works with this version of Mac OS X. You may need to re install the application. Be sure to install updates for the application and MAC OS X"
I have done all the software updates possible for both MAC OS and iworks compatibility, and nothing has worked. I do not have the original CD with me, so I cannot reinstall. Is there any other way to get the working version of the application off of my time machine?

(1)
Enter mac App Store and check if it state that Pages is installed on your machine.
If it does, you may download Pages 4.0.5 thru this channel for free.
(2)
Assuming that you aren't far from your original DVD for a long time, you may remove every files related to iWork '09 with my uninstall script
then
download and install the trial version,
don't run it
Trigger Software Update to download and install the required updater.
I apologize but I don't remember if the updater 9.0.5 apply the entire required changes.
After that you will have an up to date package which you will be able to use during 30 days.
When you will be back home, re-apply my uninstaller
install the package from your DVD
don't run the apps
Trigger Software Update to download and install the required updater.
After that you will have an up to date full time package.
To get my uninstaller,
go to my iDisk :

Unable to open webpage in Safari, Firefox, Explorer, Camino, etc..

originally posted in the Safari forum, and someone suggested i post here also:
I'm almost at my wits end here.
first off here is the site I need to connect to:
www.eyemedvisioncare.com
not only this address but all pages connected to this URL do not load. The message I get is "Safari can’t open the page.
Safari could not open the page http://www.eyemedvisioncare.com/because the server stopped responding."
I've scoured this board to find similar problems. And I have and had followed all advice. Though the key difference between my problem and all others is that the page will not load in any other browser.
I'll run down the list of things I've tried.
Empty safari cache
Reset Safari
deleted prefs
checked firewall
reinstall Safari
archive and install system
clean install
I've also eliminated the router as a cause by directly connecting to the net from the modem.
i had been able to connect to the site in the recent past and had not changed a thing or installed anything. I thought a clean install would solve the problem but that's what drove me here. The office that uses this computer need to connect to 3-4 websites daily, that it, just a few sites and email. I cannot stand the thought of having to buy a PC just to connect to one website. I'd buy a new mac if i thought that would work but I've tried the site at home on 2 other computers with the same result. though i could connect to it from other offices and i'm sure readers and posters will be able to connect to it with no problems.
thanks in advance.
minor update:
i thought i'd try installing panther and deal with an older OS. Still no results with safari or even internet explorer. also tried explorer under VPC with no success.
someone suggested connecting with just the IP and that did not work either. I had a feeling when the site could not be pulled up with Firefox or Explorer that the problem might be somewhere else.

In Terminal, try:
curl http://www.eyemedvisioncare.com/
and see if it returns the page. If it does, then I think it may be something in the browsersniffer.js script that that site uses, http://www.eyemedvisioncare.com/resources/browsersniffer.js . If curl doesn't return anything, then it would probably be time to check routing as a culprit.

I am having problems opening pages in safari. the rotating wheel at the right end of the address window doesn't stop even after the page has filled up. then if i try to open other pages it gets stuck and won't open them.

I started having problems opening pages today. When first open a page it seems to download the page OK, but the rotating wheel on the right-hand end of the address field keeps rotating after the page is completely filled up. Then if I try to open other pages it becomes slower and eventually stops filling-in the pages, while the rotating wheel keeps rotating.
I wonder whether junk is being downloaded into my mac, or what is going on. Help will be geatly appreciated.

When was the last time you emptied the Safari cache?
From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
If that didn't make a difference, go back to the menu bar click Safari > Reset Safari. Select the top 5 boxes then click Reset.
And how much free space on the startup disk?
Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure you always have a minimum of 15% free disk space. Freeing Up Hard Disk Space - Mac Guides
If emptying cache or resetting didn't help and there's enough free space on the startup disk, login to another user account, launch Safari. Same problems there indicates a system wide problem. Log back into your admin account so you can check the startup disk.
Launch Disk Utility. /Applications/Utilities
Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left then select the First Aid tab.
Click: Verify Disk (not Verify Disk Permissions)
If the startup disk needs repairing, follow the instructions for Using Disk Utility to verify or repair disks
I wonder whether junk is being downloaded into my mac
Nothing should "download" to your Mac unless you initiate the download yourself. You can check the Downloads folder from the Safari > Window menu or your Downloads folder in the Finder.

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...

# of open pages in Safari

The # of open pages used to appear next to my web browser. I no longer have that functionality. How do I regain?

Safari on iOS 5 uses tabbed browsing and not the thumbnail/page browsing as on previous versions, and you can't change it back - if you want the option of tabbed or thumbnails then you could try leaving feedback for Apple and maybe in a future iOS release it'll happen : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

Unable to open Pages document on desktop/iCloud

Purchased a Macbook Air and decided to use Pages to update and reformat my resume, but after I saved it, I am unable to open it on both the computer and iCloud. The dialogue that pops up just says "filename.pages cannot be opened". Is there a way to convert it to a Word document or PDF, as most online file converters don't recognize .pages?

I will try to get thsi post move to iWork for iOs.

Unable to open Page Setup in CR11 in Design view

Hello,
I am using crystal reports professional v11.0.0.1994. I am unable to open the Page setup from the File menu in this report. The Page setup function works for my other reports, just not this one. I do not want to have to recreate this report as it is complicated (for me!). I have tried saving the report as a different name. I am having trouble printing this report in our Terminal Server environment and need to be make sure the no print option is turned off.
Thanks for any assistance
Carolynne

Hi Graham,
We were having issues with the report in a third party application. TS - users were not able to print at all - as if the no printers check box was ticked. (users could not see any printers)
I was trying to correct this through the design opening the report on my local pc where I have Crystal Reports installed. I could sucessfully open the report, but when I clicked on File Page setup nothing happened. It was as if I hadn't clicked on the function at all.
I then opened the report in Crystal Reports installed on a server (same version) but had the same problem.
I sent the report to someone outside the organisation with the same version of crystal reports and they were able to open the Page setup and turn off the No Printers check box.
When the report came back I was able to open Page Setup.
I was trying to find out what could cause the software to ignore the page setup command in case this happened again.
Thanks Carolynne

Unable to open Pages docs in Pages 5.5

I cannot believe that I'm having this extreme an issue but not finding anyone else with the same problem thus far.
I am unable to open any Pages docs in Page 5.5. Actually though, the issue began right BEFORE I upgraded to Yosemite and then upgraded Pages.
I partly did the whole upgrade to see if it would fix the issue, and it has not.
I have tried everything, every way there is to open a file, I've tried it. I'm talking about Pages docs I created originally in Pages, that will not open.
When I give the open command, it acts like it's opening the doc, and there are no error messages but the doc simply doesn't open.
HELP!!! I can't do my work!

Hi all,
I hav been having a similar problem. In the end I re formatted my hard drive (which I had been thinking of doing anyway) re installed Yosemite and pages 5.5 anew. I did the same with my iPad Air V1.
However, files are not syncing across the cloud to the iPad or the other way round. I create a file on Page son the Mac and save to iCloud. Wont show there or on the iPad. File on iPad won't show in Pages on the Mac. It's impacting my business greatly as I create case reports in Police Stations (lawyer) and finish off on the Mac but unless i use iCloud I can't. Driving me mad and cannot think of a solution.

Unable to open pages between MAC and iPad

Since yesterday I have been unable to open new pages documents on my MAC that where wriiten on my IPAD.
No updates are required on either system.
My Mac is Mountianlion Osx 10.8.5 pages 09 4.3
My Ipad IOS 7.0.4 pages 2.0.1
when i click on document my MAC tells me in order to open I need to buy a version of Pages / is this correct?
forgive me for sounding stupid

Hi Sarah,
Sounds like you need to update Pages, the latest version is 5.0.1.

I have the ipad2 with the latest Os upgrade. On certain websites, I get the following error message: cannot open page. Safari cannot open the page because the network connection was lost. I have rebooted, turned off wifi and reset the password.

This is happening to only certain websites. Unfortunately, the work ones that I need to access. I appreciate any help.
Error message:
Cannot open page
Safari cannot open the page because the network connection was lost
I reset the wifi and the password, I also rebooted several times.

Do you have any other browsers on your iPad? If you don't have one, why don't you try downloading one of these free browsers - they will all be "lite" versions (not full featured) - but if you can access these websites with one of those - then I assume that we can point to Safari as being the culprit. That will not solve the Safari problem, but it will give us another point from which to work.
http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=free+ipad+web+browsers&ie=UT F-8&oe=UTF-8
I have Mercury, iCab Mobile, Opera, Dolphin and Atomic. iCab Mobile - the paid version is great.
BTW ... have you tried to access these sites from another WiFi connection - like a library, a friend's house - any other WiFi network?
