Help cant access Amazon.co.uk

Hootanany

I can get on to any other website including amazon.com but get this message comes up when I try to access the .co.uk one.

Message


Safari can’t open the page “http://www.amazon.co.uk/Panasonic-TX-P50S20B-50-inch-Widescreen-Freeview/dp/B0039SLYIM/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1301771612&sr=1-2” because Safari can’t connect to the server “www.amazon.co.uk”.


Any suggestions

Many Thanks in advance

Why bump a post that's only an hour old, especially when it's still at the top of the forum?

Add more information if you want an answer, like your ISP, modem, firewall setting, DNS, etc.

amazon.co.uk is working fine, so the problem is either with your ISP, or your computer.

tracert amazon.co.uk and ping amazon.co.uk might tell you something.

Clean out you cache and cookies from safari.

Is it just one page or all their pages.

Download Chrome or firefox and try them.

That link you posted for www.amazon.co.uk seems to have the .uk section replaced with an Internationalised Domain Name (.xn--uk-0t). You may not be checking Amazon at all.

Well spotted.

The first link is fine. The second (as you have posted it) is wrong. Is that a typo?

Not sure. It may be an accent over the u that has been rendered as an Internationalised Domain Name. The IDNs are basically ASCII domain names that are often prefixed with 'xn--'. They are rendered by browsers with the accent or non-Latin characters.

It might be interesting to see if all .uk sites are affected on the OP's browser or it was just a typo.

The link you posted has the double quotes at the end included in the link which is why it won't work.
