Question

Safari 3.2.1 not working with Fed Ex website

When I attempt to go to http://www.fedex.com using Safari 3.2.1 on my Mac, I get the following error message:

"Safari can’t open the page.
Safari can’t open the page “ http://www.fedex.com/” because the server unexpectedly dropped the connection, which sometimes occurs when the server is busy. You might be able to open the page later."

Similar issues accessing any page within the FedEx website. Firefox loads it just fine every time. What's up? I hate having to use Firefox.

I'm not having any problems connecting. I use the site frequently with Version 3.2.1 (5525.27.1)

I had trouble setting up my Fedex Account online, it did not say what yours is saying, but it just would not work. I called Fed Ex and they said that their setup stuff does not work with Safari at all. So I set it up over the phone with him and then I can go in and it has worked fine the 2 times I have set up and printed labels since then. You just cannot setup the account using Safari.

I have been using the Fedex site, and since last year the 'new' MyFedex. Last week I tried to use the tracking feature in the new myfedex, and it always returns the message that maintenance is underway.

I switch to the older version of myfedex, and can track fine.

Anyone successfully tracking items in the 'new' myfedex?

thanks
