Mobile Tumblr hanging on page load?

Hi, all:
Mobile Safari produces a nasty hang every time I load a Tumblr site.
Clearing History and Cookies and Data seem to have not produced a fix.
Help!

I'm in the same sinking boat. I've tried empting the cache, deleting the favicons in my icons folder, reseting, deleting the history, changing the DNS numbers or leaving them blank, etc...
The only thing I know for sure is that it's not a problem w/ my network or my provider. Other computers are just fine w/ my connection.
This issue seems so random, as it seems that it can happen to any site at any time. This is getting old. Will we ever have a solution? I hope, as I'd much rather use Safari than anything else.
HELP!

Safari hangs on page loading

Hi all:
Recently upgraded to Lion 10.7.3 now on Safari 5.1.3, It loads fairly well on most anything, but there are certain pages that it hangs and never completes loading on 2 or 3 specific and particular pages, that I never had a problem to load with previous version of Safari.
These pages never load up and they are always the same, they end up in a never ending attempt to load. They use to load before with no problems
I've trashed out the Safari cache multiple times with no results.
Any ideas???
Thank You.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
As Guest, test. Same problem(s)?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on some Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.) Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

Safari Hanging on Page Loads

Since doing the 10.4.7 update, each time I try to load a new website Safari freezes about one third through the load. I click the stop button and then reload and it loads OK. Any ideas?

I think that it is something wrong with kernel and graphic drivers but i'm not able to solve it from the beginning of using of Arch by me.
I'm not so sure this issue is software-related only because in my case it seems the laptop screen enters power-saving mode (10-min timeout) on its own without any events logged (as shown by dmesg) so my next thought was OK, I'm going to get rid of this issue disabling the screen power-saving timeout in the BIOS and set it to never power down or something like that and from then on managing power mode manually; ie: when I want to power down I will just use systemctl suspend/hibernate which work fine ... problem is: there are no related options in my BIOS for such timeout.
The only timeouts I have are in /etc/systemd/logind.conf set to 30min (#IdleActionSec) (commented) by default so these are not in effect because the screens goes blank after 10m which is less than the (default) 30m in logind. Maybe setting loggind to 9m (un-commented) to catch the event before the machine-default one ?
IdleActionSec=9min
IdleAction=suspend
Will check it and report back.

Safari hangs/fails to load any page.

Hi,
Whenever I try to open any webpage, the Safari hangs/fails to load any page. The blue status bar doesn't progress and multi coloured wheel appears. Eventually I have to force quit the safari. I have installed firefox now in order to continue browsing but would like to return to safari at the earliest. Please help to fix this.

I was wondering if Onyx would work if you're running OS 10.4. (I know this would mean downloading an earlier version of Onyx.) If it wouldn't work, then is there another fix for this problem? Safari does the beachball for me, not on every page, but on enough of them to be really annoying.

After updating my plugins firefox 5.0.1 still hangs/freezes when loading web pages.

After making sure my plug-ins were updated, firefox 5.0.1 hangs/freezes when loading web pages.

I changed the setting, but unfortunately, this didn't fix the problem. This situation does seem to occur more, when I load or reload my eBay home page. I noticed that all data and information would go ahead and load, but the random ads bar would not immediately load and when I would left click anywhere on the page, Firefox would temporarily freeze, the page turns white, Firefox not responding will display, and then the banner would load and everything is fine. I'm wondering if it has something to do with my Flash Player. Any additional suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Reggie

Guest Portal web page load is slow and timesout on occasions

Hi All,
I'm hitting a rather unusual issue with our Guest WLAN users. Firstly let me describe the topology:-
2 x 5508 WLC controllers one Foreign and one Anchor. Mobility tunnel between the two WLC's as the Guest WLAN is on the WLC sitting in the DMZ.
30+ 2702i AP's running in FlexConnect mode for Dot1X WLAN and Central Switching for Guest WLAN.
Cisco ISE 1.3 acting as Radius server and providing Authentication and Authorisation policies.
Dot1x Authentication and Authorisation works fine with Dynamic VLAN assignment based on AD memberships.
The issue is with the Guest WLAN is that from a security perspective we weren't allowed to use the Central Web Authentication using L2 MAC filtering with the L3 Security of None as described in Cisco Document: 115732.
So the Guest WLAN has been set up with no L2 security and the L3 Security of Web Policy with Web Authentication to External Server i.e. Cisco ISE and RADIUS override on the Advanced tab of the Guest WLAN.
So a client connects to the Guest WLAN SSID > receives the DHCP IP address hosted by the Anchor WLC and then one opens a browser types in the URL and the Security message is presented > Continue to this website (not recommended) selected and the process of receiving the Web Redirect Sign On Web page begins and hangs around forever.
Depending on the Client i.e. Apple IPAD the sign on page loads correctly although can be slow to start with but a successful login is completed, but with windows clients and MAC Air books there is an issue with the browser either timing out the page and a retry is necessary or we can't move beyond the following page - https://x.x.x.x:8443/portal /PortalSetup.action?portal=194a5780-5e4e-11e4-b905-005056bf2f0a?switch_url=https://1.1.1.1/login.html&client mac=00:23:4e:86:98:3c&wlan=GUEST&redirect=www.cisco.com/
Any suggestions would be really appreciated with this as it's creating a lot of frustration.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Mark

Hi Mark,
Yes Guest Cert will need to be external. Because Guest Users if they have a non-corporate laptop for example will not have your Internal Company Certs installed in their browser (that you loaded onto ISE), so they cannot trust your internal Cert.
If your open Firefox or IE under Options/Security View Certificates you will see a list, if its a Guest you will see well known public Certs like Geotrust, Verisign etc.
For my setup I brought a GeoTrust cert and loaded this into ISE, this way Guests will always Trust the Geostrust ISE cert like https://guest.com for example and the login will appear and be trusted.

Solution (sort of) for Safari hangs/failure to load

I and several others have been experiencing frequent hangs (or failure to load) with Safari 5.0.2 and 5.0.3 under OS X 10.6.5 and 10.6.6. Out of about 100 page loads, these hangs occur about twice. All pages stop loading and the progress bar stops at "http://www." It's not a full crash -- you can still switch between tabs and use the menu -- but no pages or page items will load.
After much helpful back and forth with Apple tech support and other affected individuals, we seem no closer to finding the cause of these hangs, but I have discovered a "sort of solution". When the hang occurs, if you have another tab that has already fully loaded, go to that tab and choose Save as... from Safari's File menu, then Cancel. That will free Safari which will resume normal operations. (If you don't have another tab already loaded, you can usually switch to any other app and choose Save or Save as..., then Cancel.)
No idea why this works, but it does and very consistently.

If anyone knows any better about what I wrote, please let me and everyone else in this forum know.

Firefox for Android slower, on page loading, than desktop version on the same hardware?

I did test Firefox for linux paralel to the Android version on the same tablet, in the exact same time.
Mobile version: 22.0 - Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:19.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/19.0
Desktop version: 11.0 - Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux; armv7l; rev:11.0) Geko/20100101 Firefox/11.0
Mobile version starts, indeed, faster (2-3s vs 7-10s) but page loading looks like it's being strangled by something.
Unlike desktop version, which, with it's rendering issues - I'm running it on top of an X11 framebuffer,
the mobile version can take up to 2 minutes to load a webpage like plus.google.com.
The Desktop version, running on the same tablet and taking cpu time along Android, takes less than one minute. I'm convinced it would be 2-3x faster running alone and even faster if the gpu would do the rendering.
On other pages the difference is even more striking...
And it‘s obviousv that it is not a rendering issue but a data transfer bottleneck.
Any idea on closing the gap on page loading times between the two, not involving slowing down the desktop version? :)
My hardware specs: Allview branded ly-f1 tablet, 1GHz Cortex A8, 1Gb DDR3 RAM, 8Gb internal nand flash
Android 4.1.1 and Ubuntu 12.04 lts compiled with hardfloat for armv7.
My internet connection being a 50Mb/s optical routed to a 802.11n 150Mb/s wifi router.
I would love to switch to Ubuntu only but I cant do that yet... Mali400 and cedarX still puzzle me and fellow linux geeks...

System boot occasionally hangs at module loading

Since I installed Arch, about 43% of the time that I have attempted to boot my computer the boot process hangs at module loading. I assumed that the problem may have been that I was autoloading my modules. I tried turning autoloading off and manually loading them instead but that did not help. Then (as a shot in the dark) I tried having autoloading on, with my modules still defined in rc.conf, but that only made things worse (understandably, I did not think that this would help, but I figured that it couldn't hurt to try).

I have the same problem on my thinkpad T500 after I upgrade the wireless card (intel wifi link 5300).
For a long time I didn't understand the why of this behavior, but some weeks ago I realise that the problem can solve it hard-locking the wireless card and unlocking after the step: "loading modules".
For more information this is the complete thread on thinkpad forum that I wrote when I try to solve this issue: http://lnv.lithium.com/t5/T400-T500-and … 870#M26238
I apologize if you do not understand what I mean, the problem is that I have some difficulties to express myself in English

Page load time differences between IE and Firefox

Hello all,
I have a problem with page loading time in IE 8. My page contains tabular form, classic report and some other items. I use some javascript code(placed in HTLM Header section) and also dynamic actions. When I try to display the page in IE I have to wait for 40 seconds (100 rows in tabular form). I realized that the performance is dependent on the number of displayed rows in the tabular form. But decrease the number of visible rows, using pagination, is not an option, because all needed rows should be visible for the users. During the tests I have tried to remove all the JS code and disable all the dynamic action, but the loading time was more or less the same.
When I try to run the same page in FireFox then it is displayed in 4 seconds!
I have already try to search some tips or advices how to speed up the page loading, but only what I have found out is, that every web browser is different. The javascript is handled differently, page rendering is done differently and so on.
Maybe there is something what I have missed, and you experts can help me. Is there anything general what I should check or change to speed up the loading time in IE?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks Denes for your reply.
I use HttpWatch tool to measure the loading times. Reports are mostly the same for IE and FF. I can see from the report, there is three times shown error 404 Not Found for the items below.
http://......./images/sRegion-Body.png
http://......./images/sRegion-Bottom.png
http://......./images/sReportBG-Standard.png
The last action which caused 404 error started 2 seconds after the page was asked to refresh. The next action http://......../i/libraries/jquery-ui/1.8.22/ui/i18n/oracle/jquery.ui.datepicker-cs.js started after 38 seconds (hanging in the same place for 36 seconds). Does it mean that the problem is caused by http://......./images/sReportBG-Standard.png action which returns 404 error?
How can I add the missing images?

Slow page loads only since 10.4 upgrades

Hi folks,
Has anyone seen a problem with pages hanging up after updating from earlier OS X's to 10.4? First my wife noticed it when she got her new Mac Book -- an upgrade from 10.2.8 on the old machine. A couple of items would load on a page, but then it hangs up and stalls for a while until finally fully loading. Ordinarily, I'd peg it as just being slow serving of ads to particular sites, but it's not always ad-rich sites. And more so, it's strange that this only started happening in conjunction with starting to use 10.4 to surf the same sites that weren't hanging up before.
Further confirming my belief that it has to do with 10.4, is that upon my upgrading from 10.3 to 10.4 on my G5 a month or so later, I started to immediately notice slow, slow page loads on that machine, too. Particularly, again, on sites that loaded fine with 10.3 just before the upgrade.
I'm also having more problems with mailboxes loading slowly and kicking off-line since the upgrade.
Is there some trick to get 10.4 to behave with regard to requests across the web??
Thanks!!!!

me too. My mini is wired, but I have the same trouble. I have a PC on the same router, and it has no problem with internet. I've been looking around a while, and it seems like this is a common occurrence and I have not found a fix yet. This is very frustrating. Also, the network status in the network diagnostics window shows the internet failing alot, but even when it's "green" I still can't always load pages.

Slow page loads, dropped connection

Hi,
Looking for some advice here. I write for the web for a living, and spend most of my day online. I'm not happy with the speed of my connection right now, and am considering upgrading to a faster package. I'm currently on the 768k to 1.5Mbps DSL package.
The problem is, I don't get anywhere near the speed I'm paying for now. Page load times go from speedy to drop dead slow (20-30 secs), and often hang. I'm not sure what's going on, although I can say my mother has the same problems at her house (next town over, same DSL package). I can't see paying for a "faster" package when I don't even get the speed I should be now.
Here are some stats. Hoping someone can take a look and give me some thoughts about whether a speed upgrade would be worth it.

I think my transceiver stats look good for higher speeds, but I'm wondering why I get such inconsistent and generally slow download speeds now.
Thanks for your help.

Has the line been performing any better since the last post? If not, find a time where it is working poorly and register an account over at DSLReports.com if you don't already have one. Fron there, visit their Tools section of their site and perform the Line Quality/Ping test. Be sure that before you start the test, your router/modem is not blocking Pings since this will result in the test having less data. Also, ensure nothing is using your connection before and during the time of the test being ran. Post up the results of the test once it has been completed.

Speed up image / page loading

I've done a remake of the website for my company. I'm a hobbyist web person - not my full time job here. My boss wanted lots of images. Well - now that we have them, he says the page takes too long to load. Any pointers on how to get the images / page loaded faster? The template I have based the site on has an ajax pre-loader but it doesn't seem to actually pre-load all the images. The galleries still take a while to load when you view them. The site is up at http://www.morgansmithllc.com. Any suggestions on how to speed things up that a hobbyist user of DW can implement? Thanks!

This is one of the downfalls of a single page layout. In that type of layout, everything must be loaded because it all exists on the single page.
As a result I tried running your page through some analyzers and found there are some extremely large files that are being used. The backgrounds are huge and could likely be further compressed. Right now your top 6 images are 10MB of the 20+MB page size which is far too large. Also I see a lot of parallax javascript hanging around. Just because a website is a single page does not mean it needs to be a parallax site. In fact, for this type of site I would recommend removing the parallax because there is no need for it.
If you simplify the site in those ways, that should help a good deal with the loading and scrolling speeds.

What is the mobile address to this page?

I looked at my verizon and cant seem to find this page on my phone......silly me! thanks for the help.

Very handy to have a mobile site. I like to check it for the "Big update" that's coming. Can't wait for it!
I like it because pages load faster

Mobile Tumblr hanging on page load?
