I'm not sure if I'm the only person that has been having this problem for the last few day's but here goes.
I would print one shipping label by clicking on the print shipping in ebay and would be redirected to paypal and everything was fine. When I returned to ebay and tried to click on the next item to print shipping it would take me to the Cannot find server page The page cannot be displayed. I would close all my open Internet Explorer windows, clear cache and reopen IE, relog into ebay and could print one more shipping label and would have to start all over again. Needless to say it was taking me 2 hours to print 15 shipping labels. Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!I was also having problems logging into the US Postal Service website. I had contacted ebay, HP, Microsoft and USPS tech reps and no one could help me, basically, sorry about your bad luck.
This morning after reformating my hard drive and reloading all programs, downloading updates and all that hoopla (5 hours) I tried again. The problem was still there. Double AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! Then the light bulb went off. ebay just added the Java logo to the top right of their pages about the same time I started having the problem. I went to Java, checked my verssion and found I was not up to date. I downloaded the most recent update and everything is working fine now. God if I had only noticed that earlier. The reason I was having the problem on the USPS website also is because they also recently switched to Java. Finally all is well again. What a nightmare.
Hope this helps if there is anyone else having the same problem. If you are, just go to www.java.com and click on the check my verssion and then download the new verssion and it will fix the problem.
