Safari hangs or fails loading Quicktimes

I'm uploading Qt's to my website - they load fine locally, but from the web Safari hangs, spinning beachball, and sometimes fails to load the video at all.
The video is H264 exported from Quicktime Pro 7.6.3, tried running Safari in 64, 32 and even Rosetta modes. It appears that QtX is trying load the video no matter how I run Safari.

Thanks for any advice!

*"I'm curious, do you always run it in 32bit mode or just when there's a problem? "*
Always run Safari in 32 bit mode.
*" I loaded one of my videos from the website, closed the window, emptied the cache, even quit Safari, re-opened my website and the video was still fully loaded, played instantly."*
You want that to happen. Otherwise you would have to wait that much longer everytime a video loads and that would happen to every visitor to your site without a browser cache. It empties the cache from the Safari/Empty Cache menu but the minute you load another video your computer writes that data into the cache.
*"What do you think, is this just growing pains from the move to SL? "*
For the future...
Growing pains. Whenever you upgrade any computer from one operating system to the next, it's important to read all the data you can to prepare. Each time you see a Software Update for the Mac OS X you have the option in that window to click a link so you can see exactly what the update includes. Third party software is often a culprit for issues after updating software.

Safari hangs, does not load and crashes.

I have read some of the posts regarding the newer version 4.0.2 of Safari but the answers were not helpful for me. I went into "Library" and "Application Support" and removed all the applications in that folder and placed them on the desktop. I reset Safari, clearing everything and it either hangs like it is right now or I can open a few pages until it decides to hang or just shuts down completely. I have nothing in the "Internet Plug-ins" folder. When I change to another user I get the exact same results.
I use this computer for college work and this is now a serious problem for me. Please help!

Hi and Welcome To Apple Discussions
I believe the suggestion was to remove any item found in the Plugins folder found at HD>Library>Applications Support>SIMBL. Is that what you did, or did you remove everything in Applications Support? If the latter, return those items to the AS folder, otherwise you'll have problems with other applications. If you checked for SIMBL>Plug-in folder, did you find that folder (you may not have it installed in your system), and if you did, what is located there?
Another place to look via the Finder is HD>Library>InputManagers folder, or Your User Account>Library>InputManagers folder. If you see anything in either of those folders, please post the name of the bundle here.

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.
AppleLou

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.

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.

Safari Hangs - - will not load

When I try to start Safari it hangs. I move the cursor to the top bar and it's the spinning beach ball. I have to do a force quit. This is on my MacBook Pro using Max OS X 10.5.4, 2 gigs ram.
I used time machine to get an earlier version.
I've tried deleting and reinstalling (using MacOSXUpdCombo10.5.4.dmg).
I moved my cookies.plist to the desktop.
I moved any adobe plugins out of the plugins folder.
I reset the PRAM.
Nothing is working. Safari will not load.

Do you have anything located in either of these 2 folders:
Hard drive > Library > InputManagers
Hard drive > Users > Your Username > Library > InputManagers
If so, drag the files/folders located within them and place them on your Desktop for the time being. (If you can't find either folder, that's fine as they may not exist.)
Retry Safari after moving those items.

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'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/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.

Safari hangs when loading web pages.

I'm new to the Mac and had my machine less than a week. However, I'm having problems with Safari/Internet. Generally it's fine, but from time to time Safari hangs and it can take a few minutes for it to spring back into life and load the desired web page. It's not the internet itself as I tested it on another device whilst experiencing the problem and could load sites fine. I can only think it's a problem either with some setting in Safari, or with the Mac's WiFi.
Has anyone experienced the same issue, or more to the point does anyone know how to fix it?

From the menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab.
If you have any installed, turn that OFF, quit, relaunch Safari to test.
Try Safari > Preferences - Privacy. Click Remove All Website Data. Quit, relaunch Safari to test.
If you installed anti virus software, disable that.
If you installed any Safari third party add ons, follow the instructions here > Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
And try deleting the cache.db file.
Quit Safari.
Go to ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safar/Cache.db
Move the Cache.db file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash.
Relaunch Safari.

Safari 6.0.1 loads, fails to operate in Mountain Lion 10.8.2

Yesterday, without any changes incurred on my part, Safari 6.0.1 loaded normally and set a menu bar that looks normal, but it failed to open any pages. In fact it will not respond to any menu choices or keyboard commands. In thinking about this overnight I began to wonder if perhaps this is simply the result of a prefs file that has become corrupt and should be manually deleted, thus forcing Safari to generate a new one as it loads up. But I thought I would first toss this question out there to see if anyone else is having similar problems. Perhaps there is already a solution other than what I suggest here. This is the second problem I have encountered after updating to OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2; the first was that my 30" Cinema HD Display refused to work as an extension of the iMac desktop. I have ascertained to Apple's satisfaction that the monitor is fully functional, and Apple engineers are evaluating that particular problem as I keyboard this note. For the record with respect to the Safari problem, I am currently using Firefox to access this website, and it works just fine.
I sure would like to see a comment or two on the Safari topic.

Same problem here. Java works in Firefox, but not in Safari.
In Norway, there is a common/shared authorization & payment system (called BankID) that uses Java. In logging into banks and in all payments (also international Web-shop paymets). And Safari can not handle it.
BankID has a Java-test function. In Firefox, it detects Java and outpts:
Browser
Op. Sys.
Java version
Java vendor
Firefox 19
Mac OS X 10.8.3
1.7.0_17
Oracle Corporation
In Safari, it outputs:
Browser
Op. Sys.
Java version
Java vendor
Safari 6
Mac
Download Java here
More information about Java
This is pretty embarrasing for Mac users in Norway. We can not log into any bank, buy a movie ticket, check-out from any web-shop, ...
Anybody reading these from Apple? When can we expect a fix? Did anyone of you see a fix anyplace?

Safari hangs for ~7 seconds when loading some pages

I noticed when I click on certain links, Safari hangs for a moment: a blue line moves, when stops, hangs where for about 7 seconds, and eventually it loads a website. It happens on theweathernetwork.com website when I brows photos and open each in a separate tab.
Also, when I am reading a flash etexbook (Pearson eText), and when I click on audio or any other link (youtube, etc.)
I see Safari freezes, mouse cursor disappers (it IS there when I click but you can't see it), after about 7 seconds, cursor re-appears and Safari unfreezes.
Any suggestions how to fix?
Some details:
1) same problem even when I log in with new just created user
2) no such problem if I use Chrome browser.
All software is up to date.

Try a different DNS server such as OpenDNS ...
Quit Safari.
Open System Preferences / Preferences then select the Network tab. Click the Advanced tab then click the DNS tab.
Click +
Enter these addresses exactly as you see them here.
208.67.222.222
Click +
208.67.220.220
Then click OK.
Relaunch Safari.
Apple suggests using OpenDNS here > Safari 5.0.1 or later: Slow or partial webpage loading, or webpage cannot be found

You need to update your Flash plug-in to the most current version. Make sure you select the Intel version.
When the install is complete, Safari automatically opens to the Adobe Flash page confirming the plug-in was correctly installed.
Quit Safari and "repair permissions" using Disk Utility in the Utilities folder.

Here's a fix for Safari hanging and taking down the system..

There appears to be a serious bug in Mac OS X's lookupd which can pull the rug right out from under Mac OS X Tiger. While this bug could possibly be triggered in a number of different ways, there has been a recent rash of reports that have been tracked to some mainstream Web sites such as FoxNews.com using links to an adware site js.adsonar.com. This document describes a quick way out of the hang and a simple way to block links to js.adsonar.com from taking down Tiger again. While this doesn't fix the underlying lookupd bug itself, it prevents Mac OS X from hanging, while allowing you to continue using Web sites like FoxNews.com with full Java and JavaScript access enabled.
The symptoms of this problem are as follows:
You're surfing the web and the page you are on fails to completely load.
No further pages will load in your browser.
You can switch to other applications that may already be running and save any open files.
You can no longer launch any additional applications, their icons will bounce in the dock for a while and then they will just stop bouncing.
You can no longer use any other Finder functions.
You can no longer use command-option-escape to force quit.
You can not log out, restart or shut down.
Apparently these symptoms indicate that a low-level component of Mac OS X, lookupd, has hung. Since lookupd is used by many other parts of Mac OS X, it effectively hangs Mac OS X itself.
If this sounds like a problem you are having, try the steps in the following link to fix it.

Hope it helps,

Hi Bee,
There is indeed "such a bug", though you may be fortunate enough to not be affected. Unfortunately MANY others are affected by this. I spent three days helping track this down (many of those 38 posts were while tracking it down in the Tiger discussions) and find a fix to this and thought that others might benefit by my efforts... By the way it's NOT a Safari bug, it happens in any browser, it's a "lookupd" bug which may be triggered by surfing to certain sites which contain links to "js.adsonar.com", which if you have JavaScript enabled can hang lookupd and take down your entire system... consider yourself lucky that it hasn't happened to you...
Here is some background information if you don't believe me:
Apple Discussions: "Fixes" for lookupd Problems, some via Java Updates
Apple Discussions: System unresponsive within the last week
MacFixit Discussions: Progressive Freeze and Network Access under Tiger
MacFixIt Special Report
MacFixit Follow-up: Another fix for system-wide freezes when Web browsing
I only posted this fix to the specific threads where people were having Safari hang, incase it might help them. Forgive me for trying to help them... I thought that was the point of these boards and that was why they started threads about their issues... I'd be willing to bet that this fix will indeed fix many of their problems...
I also posted one additional new topic here on the Safari board and one on the Tiger board for new readers looking for solutions to the same system hangs they may be getting while surfing.
If this fix does indeed help any of you other readers, please post back here so that Bee can indeed see that I'm not just posting here to waste my time...
