“Access Denied Error 15” loading a website on Safari with iPad iOS 16.4.1

Hey Foxheaven,

We’d be happy to help out. We understand you’re having an issue loading a particular webpage on your iPad. If so, the following steps can help out:

Connect to a different network

Try to load a website, like www.apple.com, using cellular data. If you don't have cellular data, connect to a different Wi-Fi network and then load the website.

If you're using a VPN (Virtual Private Network), check your VPN settings. If you have a VPN turned on, some apps or websites might block content from loading.

Restart your device

Turn off your device and turn it on again.

* Restart your iPhone 

* Restart your iPad 

* Restart your iPod touch

Clear website data

You can clear website data occasionally to improve Safari performance.

1. Go to Settings > Safari.

2. Tap Clear History and Website Data.

3. Tap Clear History and Data to confirm.

Turn on JavaScript

Turn on JavaScript if it's not already on.

1. Go to Settings > Safari > Advanced.

2. Find the JavaScript feature.

3. Tap the button to turn on JavaScript.

Get more help

If the issue continues and only affects a certain website or webpage, check if you have Private Relay turned on. You can temporarily turn off Private Relay in iCloud Settings. If Safari still doesn't load websites and you tried all of these steps, contact the website developer for more help.

This is outlined further here: If Safari isn't loading websites or quits on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

We hope this helps out.

Take care!
