Lately I have been getting this message way too often on a variety of websites. Today it happened on PayPal - I logged in with no problem and when I clicked on another page, I received the "can't open the page" message.
I clear out history and website data daily so not sure what is up with these errors. Is anyone else having this issue?
Mac Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10)
Safari/Preferences/Advanced - enable the Develop menu, then go there and Empty Caches. Quit/reopen Safari and test. Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library./Caches/com.apple.Safari/Caches.db and move it to the trash.
Go to Safari Preferences/Extensions and turn all extensions off. Test. If okay, turn the extensions on one by one until you figure out what extension is causing the problem.

Thank you, that appears to have fixed the problem and Safari pages are quicker to load. I found two additional Cache.db files in the com.Apple.Safari folder: Cache.db-shm; Cache.db-wal Do I delete these as well?
You are welcome. If things are working normally, no. If you are still having problems, yes.
What causes "Safari can't open the page" message?
