What is Safari can't open specified address?
Just upgraded to CC. Tried numerous times to download and install apps. Same message keeps appearing:
Safari can't open specified address
I'm on an iMac, running 10.10.3.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks for your response. I tried Safari and Firefox. Both gave me the same message. Several months ago I was able to install a trial version without a problem. I think it might've been heavy traffic on their site, since they sent an email saying this was the 'last hurrah for 40% off', so...

I cannot download software (message: safari can't open specified page). What can i do?
From the menu bar, select
▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network ▹ Advanced... ▹ DNS
Under DNS Servers you should have one or more numerical addresses, such as “192.168.1.1” or “10.0.0.1”. What are those addresses? -

Safari can't open the specified address for my last.fm playlist
Recently my favorite radio app - last.fm - has been unable to open in Safari. The error is: Safari can’t open lastfm//user/~ because Mac OS X doesn’t recognize Internet addresses starting with “lastfm:”. Though the home page is http://www.last.fm/home, the link to personal playlist does not contain http://lastfm/user/ ~ . I suppose this is a lastfm technical issue, so my post could be just an fyi. Right?
Works fine for me when I go to http://www.last.fm/
You haven't bothered showing what operating system you are running, or on what, or what version of Safari you are using, so I am working in the dark. -

Hello, we have a Mac and an ipad, the Mac is working and wifi is on and the ipad's wifi is on too, but Ipad Safari can not open the page because it could not connect to the server, does any one know that?
Some things to try first:
1. 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.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. 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
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.
Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim

2. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple Logo. -

I am getting message Safari can not open page. Server stopped responding. I have tried several suggestions but they have not worked.
This is on an iPad, correct? Are you sure you have a network connection? Is your iPad Wifi or Wifi & 3G? I know these might seem like dumb questions, but we've got to narrow it down to get a solution. If you're absolutely positive you have an active network connection we can move on to other things.

Safari can't open specifics web sites
i'm having troubles to re-open some web sites visited earlier.
I'm on a macbook pro with leopard and safari 5.0.1, all updates installed
Example: www.tgcom.it
The first time opened without any problem, the second time can't open again.
after typing the address and hit the return key, safari display immediately (without even trying to load the page) the white page with the alert:
Safari can't connect to the server.
Safari can't open the page “http://www.tgcom.it/” because safari can't connect to the server “www.tgcom.it”.
I've try already to reset Safari and clean the cache. No changes.
On the same network I have an iMac, which is loading this page anytime without any problem.
As well a windows PC is on the same home network, the page can be loaded too.
Only on this macbook pro i'm experiencing this issue.
I don't know what to think more..... the problem can't be the web-site (it works with other machines)
Other web sites on the macbook are working properly, only three address seams to be blocked from this machine only....
any suggestions???? thanks
MarcoI suspect it has something to do with your ISP.
Adding Open DNS codes to your Network Preferences, should give good results:
If you are using a single computer: Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu, and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' add the following two numbers:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
(You can also enter them if you click on Advanced and then DNS)
Sometimes reversing the order of the DNS numbers can be beneficial in cases where there is a long delay before web pages start to load, and then suddenly load at normal speed:

If your computer is part of a network: please refer to this page: http://www.opendns.com/start/bestpractices/#yournetwork and follow the advice given. -

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 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!http://www.en.bpl.admcsport.com/page/Home
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.
