Using IE I have no problems but Using Firefox all searches result in ERROR The requested URL could not be retrieved While trying to retrieve the URL: http://uk.search.yahoo.com/ The following error was encountered: * Unable to forward this request at this time. This request could not be forwarded to the origin server or to any parent caches. The most likely cause for this error is that: * The cache administrator does not allow this cache to make direct connections to origin servers, and * All configured parent caches are currently unreachable. Your cache administrator is webmaster. Generated Fri, 18 Sep 2009 18:13:00 GMT by lithium.onspeed.com (squid/2.7.STABLE5)

Download the latest version of firefox or reinstall it...that should sort the issue or try looking through the Options and click on the connections tab just to make sure you don't have the proxy box ticked.

I use firefox and I have never had any problems and can get the url fine. It could also be spyware related in that you have something blocking your search. In my opinion people don't take spyware seriously enough...until something goes wrong.

J'accede au fb ce message apparait :ERROR The requested URL could not be retrieved

The connection problem may only be temporary. Try again after a few minutes by pressing the "F5" key on your keyboard to re-load your currently viewed page. If the link does not become active after a day or two, I'd suspect it's not going to become active again. It effectively has become a dead-end link (the Internet has lots of them).

Is facebook down?

Hi Kathryn, it may just be that facebook's servers are overloaded or some wider-network issue so your PC cant establish a connection with facebooks servers. Perhaps you can just wait for a few hours or try again tomorrow to see if there are any changes.
In the meantime, try downloading any updates for your browser (I suggest using Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome over Internet Explorer) and then try again. It may just be a browser issue that gets in an endless loop trying to load some parts of Facebook's page, and an update of the browser should fix the problem.

The requested URL could not be retrieved

Hi Neerajsahu,

There are 2 things.

You either have a Permanent firewall or you have a proxy. If you know its a permanent firewall then you are pretty much stuck. But if its a proxy server there is a glimmer of hope.

Obviously the following instruction makes alot of assuptions on your network setup.

Assuming you have a proxy server, you could try going to the following place assuming you are using Microsoft's internet explorer.

Go to
Tools>Internet Options>Connections
Click on LAN Settings
Un tick "Use a proxy server for you LAN...."
Make sure you have ticked "Automatically detect settings"
Click OK
Click Apply then OK
and close IE and then Open IE again.

Now try and download the file again. If this still doesn't work then chances are you will need to see your Admin as they have a firewall appliance that checks everything.

IF the "Use a proxy server for you LAN...." was already unticked chances are you won't be able to get around it as you are downloading a file greater than 3Mb and again see your Admin.

If all else fails home and download your file that you need from there.

Hope it helps

Mozilla Firefox trumps Internet Explorer

You should try making IE your standard browser, I think it's in extras or internet options menu. When you've done that, it should open all sites in IE. Or you can try downloading extra plug-ins for firefox that will display the site properly.

Hope this helps!

Recieving and sending E-mail

The Dell Axim X5 has Microsoft Pocket Outlook pre-installed, so use that instead of MSN Messenger to e-mail. MSN Messenger is just meant for instant messaging.
You can fill in your e-mailaddress and server-data, while offline, but to sign in with any of those programs you'll need an internet connection, so you first need to connect to a wireless network, that's in range. If there is no wireless network, you have access to, you'll not be able to use these programs.

What do you mean with a wireless card? Is there no wireless card in the PDA, or don't you have a wireless network? To set up a wireless network, you need a wireless router, or WLAN-router.

Success, and just ask if you need more help
