Safari not open some webpages

Hi there, I am a newbie on Mac and however on Safari. Sorry for my english too.
I have problems to open some webpages with Safari, so I must use Firefox for some websites.
Is that normal? I prefer Safari and I would like to use only it, but that's not possible, so I must use only Firefox as my preferred browser!
I am not happy for this solution!

HI,
No, that's not normal. If you can open the same site on Firefox, then Safari should be able to also.
Try trouble shooting...
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 7 buttons and click Reset. Then relaunch Safari and try a webpage you couldn't open before. If it still won't load the page...
Go to the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab. Quit Safari. Now go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.safari.plist to the Desktop.
Relaunch Safari and see if that makes a difference. If not, move the .plist file back to the Preferences folder. If Safari functions as it should, move that .plist file to the Trash. If you still have problems...
Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and *restart your Mac.*

Try this and see if it helps.
Settings>Safari>Clear cookies and data.
Now close Safari completely. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then "swipe up" or "drag up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Safari not opening some pages

Recently Safari has frozen, failed to open some websites, stopped responding. Certain websites either do not load at all or require multiple tries for them to open. I thought it might be the Java issue but it is more wide spread. Any thoughts or remedies? Having the same problem? The sites open in Opera and Firefox.

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 guest users” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
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.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
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.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
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:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
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.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

Safari doesnt open some webpages!

I need to go on macromedia.com and it cannot find that site either! And metacafe.com... theres a whole lot of sites it cannot go on. Does anyone know what I can do so I could go on these pages? Please? and thanks!

You're welcome. Glad that solved it.

Safari not opening certain webpages?

Hi Guys,
I have been unable to access certain web pages on this computer recently, the very same web pages open on my other computers but on my G5 (OS 10.3.9) they will not load any data. These include amazon and other well known websites.
Is there any reason for this? I know its a shot in the dark but it has only recently started doing this.
Thanks in advance.

OS10.3.9/ Safari 1.3.2 on MULTI_USER setup, works OK for "admin" user, other "general" user gets error message: Safari can’t open the page “https://www.mac.com/WebObjects/Welcome.woa/wa/authenticate?cty=US&aff=consumer&l ang=en” because it couldn’t establish a secure connection to the server “www.mac.com”.
Fixing permissions and clearing cache did NOT solve "general" user's problem. User-specific problem, then. Which preference panes should I start chucking?

IPhone 3G has problems with safari not opening some videos

What can you do to make safari open videos on you tube?

Instead of using Safari use the pre installed YouTube app.
iPad does not support Flash (for Safari) so try that app instead.

Safari not opening many webpages - just get 'blank' webpages

I added "index.html" at the end of the URL's and it worked but I'd like to know why I have to do this.
BTW, I couldn't log onto this site with Safari and finally had to use FireFox.
I know about emptying caches, deleting cookies but I shouldn't have to do it every couple of hours. Again, no such problems with FireFox.

Not really answered but it's moot point now.

Safari will not open any webpages

Safari will not open any webpages. I can hit home page and nothing happens.
I click on a bookmarked page nothing happens.

Hello,
What version of Safari are you using?
If 3.0.4, check the contents of these folders:
/Users/YourUsername/Library/Input Managers/
/Users/YourUsername/Library/Application Support/
/Library/Input Managers/
/Library/Application Support/
If there is anything in them, drag the contents onto your Desktop and retry.

I installed safari 8.0.1 and now my computer is slow and will not open some pages can i uninstall

I installed safari 8.0.1 and now my mac is really really slow and will not open some pages. Can I uninstall?

Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them. In that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If not, do that now and see whether there's any change.
If your browser is Safari, then from the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. Any change?
If you're running OS X 10.9 or later, select the Advanced tab in the Preferences window and uncheck the box marked
Stop plug-ins to save power
Any change?
Quit and relaunch the browser. Any change?
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; 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.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
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.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Enable Private Browsing in the Safari menu. Any change?
Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
If Parental Controls is active for any user, please turn it off and test. Any change?
If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
Open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Photos, if it's checked. Any change?
Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?
