Why does iPhone say Safari Cannot open page because server Cannot be found?

How do I fix access denied on Safari iPhone?

I am using Chrome for my development, but as I'm trying to get Safari's behavior with regards to the iOS Simulator and Xcode I'm testing my web sites on, there are some inconsistencies. I keep running into a 'access denied' error in Safari (v 11.2) when I try to read/write anything from within the Simulator or from the files stored in the sandboxed Files app.

For example, I use this code: var fileURL = window.location.href;
Console.log(fileURL); //This gives me file://localhost/Users/me/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/DDE845B9-5D0A-4A86-B6FA-7D1E0C6DC4DA/data/Containers/Data/PluginKitPlugin/1E4ACDDF-0836-47B9-B6AB-1C7E6FDFFE73/Library.app/test1.php
FileURL = fileURL.split('/'); console. File not found Safari tells me: The page at file://localhost/Users/me/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/DDE845B9-5D0A-4A86-B6FA-7D1E0C6DC4DA/data/Containers/Data/PluginKitPlugin/1E4ACDDF-0836-47B9-B6AB-1C7E6FDFFE73/Library.php couldn't be loaded because a browser plugin is blocking it.

When trying to access the file from a file:// URL on a normal desktop browser (Chrome), it works fine. So what am I missing? How can I get Safari to allow reading and writing to the files stored in the Files app (iCloud)? You may need to enable write access to iCloud from a device menu.

Why does iPhone say Safari Cannot open page because server Cannot be found?

My mobile, iOS, iPad is not loading any mobile websites on it any more. It gives me a message: "Cannot open page because server cannot be found. I have checked with other mobile devices in the same network and those load normally. I have also removed Safari from the apps tab in the device management screen. Any help to resolve this issue will be appreciated.

I had this problem and fixed it by running this command: defaults delete com.apple.Safari HelperData
From. Note that you may need to sign out of iCloud before running the command if you're signed in at the time.

Why can't I access some websites on my iPhone?

In my world, every time a web browser app is released for Apple's mobile operating systems, I start the game over again. I'm looking for a solid, complete browser experience. In the past few years, Safari on the iPhone has been improved, but not at the level of some other competitors.

I think it comes down to the apps: The browser has an enormous advantage in this market when it comes to browsing the web. We need the best, and Apple gives us that. I believe Apple understands this and is pushing in that direction.

The problem is that developers especially those who develop with mobile technologies want to provide great apps. They want the best experiences. What I want is a web browser. Not a browser and an app. Or two.

I'm not sure I understand what you are saying. You say that iPhone Browser has all the features of Safari, just not the speed? The reason why I chose Safari on my iPhone over Browser is because it is very responsive and smooth compared to most other browsers I have tried. And when I use it on my PC, it has the same level of smoothness.

You claim that Firefox Mobile is the best of all mobile browsers, so is that based on user interface, speed and stability, or user experience? And what other browsers are you talking about? I have used Safari, Chrome and Opera, but haven't tried any others. Safari is the ONLY browser that works smoothly for me. There are too many little bugs that pop up after being inactive for a while. That's one thing I hate about all browsers: they all freeze for a second, or don't work properly, before reopening.

I don't know why Safari is great, because I never got used to it. The mobile and PC experience are very different for me. I prefer a browser where I can simply click a link and the page loads. There is no need for anything else, and then maybe to click on things to see other parts of the page.

For those reasons, Safari seems the worst of all. But I was hoping that was just an individual taste. Maybe my needs are a minority.

How do I allow Safari permission on my iPhone?

Since my iPhone's Safari is no longer allowed to open files, how do I allow it to? Right now, I have to go into Settings and make a big exception, otherwise all of my applications on my iPhone will not work, including email, text messages, etc. I don't mind fixing this via Settings, but I can't think of anything else I can do. I have all the latest iOS and everything is updated.

I'd be interested in hearing other people's experiences with Apple's iOS devices and any thoughts you may have. 4 Answers.
There used to be a simple, intuitive method to allow app permission through an easy-to-access "Open" / "Close" button that was present on every menu screen prior to iOS 5. Unfortunately, Apple removed this button for unknown reasons around iOS 5. It makes for a more complicated experience.

The easiest solution is through Settings>Safari>Permissions. Under "Open All Links" is what you want. Tap that and you can then choose how often to keep it on, like at the startup or whenever you're in the App (like mail), and when you close or close all browsers, it defaults back to disabled. Note: it must be opened/closed within the last 30 minutes before you're able to disable it for good.

If you wanted to enable all file downloads, which I'm pretty sure is what you were looking for since you say you have no files to open, there's another option: go to Settings>Safari>Security and tap on something like "Block Malicious or Unwanted Web Content". This would prevent Safari from ever opening up a browser tab that's not from apple. You could then go to the "General" section and go into "Open in Incognito Mode" and disable that.

This won't help you if you want to open .docx files, which could contain malicious content, but it will prevent you from opening a .pptx unless you open it in an Incognito tab, which may or may not happen depending on how the developer created it. For example, the .pptx I created may open fine because I can still send the email attachment through my regular email, but my friends who may view it get a nice blue message saying that the file is untrusted.
