I keep getting a ‘Cannot connect to server’ error

[jodimachines]

Ok so I can go to websites that are on my favourites or saved list, but no other ones. I have tried resetting, then I tried to log out and back into my apple, but cannot connect to server pops back up, so I am screwed! Does anyone know why this is happening? I did the last update from Apple.

Re: "Cannot connect to server"

On what device is this occurring? Is it possible that someone has set restrictions either on the device or via a firewall?

It's an iPad. I am the only one with access. Just me living here.

If you’re connected to Wi-Fi, reboot your cable/DSL modem AND your router. If you’re using cellular data, make sure the device is not somehow in Airplane mode. If you’re using a VPN app, disengage and the re-engage. If the above doesn’t work AND there isn’t a problem with your internet connection, go reset the network settings via the iPad settings menu.

I have done all that already, but I will try again

Does it do it on 3G? Toggle wifi and LTE off and see if it does it. I've had this issue a few times on my iPhone. I try everything, but noooo. Then out of the blue, it stops. No clue the cause. Sometimes it is my wifi signal.

This is so frustrating! I can't even log into my apple or my bank!

It's possible you have a hardware problem. Have you tried Reset All Settings? If not, do that.

Go to Settings >General >Reset >Reset All Settings. This resets to default everything in Settings, including notifications, alerts, brightness, and clock settings like wake up alarms.

If that doesn't work, there's not much left to try, except restoring as new.
You've tried about everything. If restoring doesn't work, then it's likely hardware. Take it to Apple and let them look at it.
