Can't load pages on Safari.

I have this very annoying issue with my Mac. (I have OSX v.10.7.3 Safari v. 5.1.5)
Very often when I try to open a webpage it takes forever to load and eventually I either get a “Safari can’t open the page because the server where this page is located isn’t responding.” message or the page loads partially-no pictures or with a strange layout. After that when I re-lunch the page it shows up instantly. The strange thing is that when I don’t wait but instead quit and re-lunch Safari while it's loading the page, it loads straightaway. I can also turn my Internet connection on and off again and same thing happens. (WiFi or cable- it doesn’t matter) The problem is that I have to do it every time I click on a link. You can imagine what happens when I try to open more than one tab or window.
This also happens on Chrome on my Mac but my Toshiba Win XP works perfectly so I don’t think it’s the modem or wifi. I don’t have any antivirus installed, no mackeepers either.

Hi...
Apple suggests using OpenDNS > Safari 5.0.1 or later: Slow or partial webpage loading, or webpage cannot be found
Very easy to setup.
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.
Use OpenDNS for better speed, more security, includes anti phishing filters, prevents browser redirects, and it's free.

Can't load pages in Safari 5.1 (Windows 7)

I received an auto notice to upgrade to Safari to Version 5.1 on my Dell E1505 Laptop running Windows 7. After upgrading with the Apple Software Update tool, Safari has quit working. It will not load any page and just hangs. I used the windows control panel to first "repair" Safari, no change. I uninstalled it and downloaded a fresh version from the Apple Website, no change. I removed version 5 and downloaded version 4.03. It now reports that it can't load the page because the website isn't responding. Internet Explorer works as advertised. I've reset Safari, repaired, removed, etc. Any ideas? Please don't make me go back to IE......
The PC is a Dell Inspiron E1505 Laptop with 2 GB Memory running Windows 7 with SP1.

Safari can't load pages

Every time I wake my computer from sleep mode, Safari (and every other web browser, for that matter) takes a good 2 minutes to load a page. I'm connected to a solid Wi-Fi network, and I can access the internet through other apps (I can get email, for example), but I can't load anything through Safari. The loading bar moves across about a 10th of the way, but it stops there for a long time. I have to reload the page several times for it to load anything.
I have tried clearing the cache, disabling DNS prefetching, and even reinstalling OS X Mavericks, but nothing helps. I have parental controls enabled, but with no web filtering option, so I don't see why that would affect Safari. Any help wold be appreciated!

This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login 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?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

When i put firefox in offline mode, and then click on pages saved in history , it can't load any pages or any images. i put cach size to 250mb but the problem is the same, it saves history for two months, but can't load pages.

Hi there,
When I inspect your site in browser tools, I'm getting 404 errors from your page:
[Error] Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found) (jquery-2.0.3.min.map, line 0)

In general, you are correct - but also your server does need to be properly configured (and those errors above lead me to think it may not be) to serve the file types that your uploading - but it could be something else entirely. Can you zip up your composition folder, upload it to your Creative Cloud files, set it to share, and then post a link here so I can download it? If you'd rather not share it publicly, can you PM me with a link to your composition files?
Thanks,

Failed to load page missing Safari

Whenever i try to load a safari page blocked by government filters (china), it always shows a blank screen instead of failed to load page...
This happened when i installed AVG linkscanner and SOPHOS AV...
but after unistallation, it returns to normal. After a while when a few computer issues mounted up i installed avast! AV, the white screen issue is back!!!
Please help i like to know if my page doesnt load
Note: this can happen to google as well

That's very odd. Did you try with just Sophos installed, or only with both AVG and Sophos? The free version of Sophos does not include any kind of link scanner or other browser plug-ins that would cause such issues. It's very odd that this is happening with multiple anti-virus programs to begin with, but if it's happening with something like Sophos that shouldn't change browser behavior, there's likely to be a problem of some kind elsewhere.
Regarding the need for anti-virus software... for the most part, the average Mac user doesn't need any. Mac OS X protects against all currently-known malware. However, you're in China, and that changes things a bit. Certain groups in China have been heavily targeted by malware in the last couple years, and even if you're not part of one of those groups, you could still become "collateral damage." Because of the increased exposure you may have, it's probably a good idea to have some kind of anti-virus software installed as an additional layer of security. I'm sure some folks would disagree, saying that if some malware can slip past the built-in defenses in Mac OS X, it will slip past anti-virus software as well. That's not a universal truth, though... different detection methods can have different levels of success for specific malware. The holes in one layer of defense may (or may not) be covered by a different layer.
For more information about this sort of stuff, see my Mac Malware Guide.

Can't open page on safari

This page works GREAT on OPERA 8, but I can't see it on SAFARI 2... C'mon Apple developers, where is the Safari update?? Will we wait until "Leopard" ???

There is no guarantees that anyone from Apple will read your post in this user-to-user discussion forum. Also, Safari is built to strictly render pages written to the accepted html/xhtml standards and is not very forgiving of bad, incorrect, or non-standard coding. It is up to web developers to write to standards; it is not up to Apple to make Safari work with every web site.
The site works in Firefox 1.5rc3. Except for three things, I like the site very much. What I don't like are sites that load automatically playing music, especially at the volume your site loads. I also don't like the lack of options to turn the sound off or lowering the volume. I also tend to not like sites that take over my screen by automatically resizing windows. I do see, though, that there are media controls once you get on the main page.
The intro page loads in Safari. Interestingly, the volume is much lower when this page loads in Safari than when I loaded it in Firefox, and is, therefore, much less annoying. The site will not go past the intro, either by letting the intro run through or by clicking on the Skip Intro link.
The W3C Validator found some errors that you might want to look at.

IPhone 4 randomly not registering first touch when loading page in Safari

I noticed lately that when my iPhone 4 (iOS 4.0.1) loads a new page in Safari it randomly sometimes does not register first touch if I try to scroll it. Afterwards everything is fine. Maybe page is still loading and lags somewhere in process. Anybody experiencing the same thing?

Well, it seems that there are people with the same problem. I made a topic at Macrumors as well:
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=972030
However they have 3GS but phones are running iOS4 as well leading me to think it's a software issue...
Anybody else having this problem?

Error when loading page in Safari

I am on WiFi via the iPhone. When I try to open a page in Safari, I get this message: "Safari can't open the page. The error was: Operation could not be completed. (POSIX error 12 - Cannot allocate memory) (NSPOSIXErrorDomain:12)"
Help!

FYI - after playing w/my phone for a while, I was able to ditch the error and surf the net fine.
What I did was go to 'settings,' 'general,' 'reset,' and then 'reset all settings.'
You won't loose data w/this reset option.
Hope this helps and I hope I can find something as to why/how this occurred.

Can't Load Pages - Proxy PAC file stored locally

Hi folks,
I was using last Safari 2 version and recently updated to Safari 3.0.4 and 3.1 and then it was impossible to connect using my corporate VPN solution. We use Juniper Network Connect 5.5.0 solution and during connection, this software changes IE7 proxy configuration by editing PAC URL (proto=http://, when connected on corporate network) to a PAC path of a file stored locally in "...\Application Data\Juniper Networks\Network Connect 5.5.0\instantproxy.pac" (proto=file://, when abroad). When I disconnect it, it reverts the changes back to an URL address.
When I found out this, I tried to copy and paste the proxy path stored in IE7 to the Safari address bar and tried to load the file.
IE7:
+file://C:\Documents and Settings\MyName\Application Data\Juniper Networks\Network Connect 5.5.0\instantproxy.pac+
Safari transform the pasted address to:
+file:///C:/Documents%2520and%2520Settings/MyName/Application%2520Data/Juniper%25 20Networks/Network%2520Connect%25205.5.0/instantproxy.pac+
And tries to load but then I have a "Safari Can't find the file." error.
Looking back to Safari transformed address, I saw that there is "%2520" code that represents the spaces. But wait..."%20" isn't the space representative code? I think, we have a small bug here...
So I replaced "%2520" codes by "%20" and tried to load the file. As expected the file loads!!!
I reported this as a bug but I hope that someone can share some experience with Safari and|or Juniper Network Connect in order to find a workaround!!

Well without any explanation from Apple, it appears that this bug was fixed. I tested it again on Safari 5.0.4 and it's working great now.

Can I load "Pages" onto new hard drive without having to pay for it again?

I have a 5 yr old Mac that just had it's hard drive replaced. I had paid for and loaded Pages onto the original hard drive. Wondering if there's any way to load Pages onto my new hard drive without having to pay for the program again. Thanks so much

If you originally installed Pages from a CD or DVD, reinstall it from there.
If you installed Pages from the Mac App Store, yes, from the Apple ID you purchased it with.
If you got Pages from the iTunes App Store, the Mac version of it is a separate purchase.

Can't view pages from Safari on my Mac

When I'm on a website & need to display a page, it comes up dark grey. I don't know which program is having a problem, or how to reset so that I can see the content. I'm fairly certain that all my programs are up to date, this problem began several months ago. Prior to that, I had no problems viewing them in Safari, my preferred browser. Lately, if this happens, I need to open FireFox to view. Any suggestions on what went wrong, and how to fix it? I really don't like having to switch browsers, as it slows me down quite a bit.

Depending on your version of Mac OS X and Safari, it may vary.

Trouble loading pages in Safari 1.3.2 (maybe due to a javascript problem?)

Hi!
I'm wondering if anyone could offer advice on how to fix a problem I'm having with my web browsers. I can't seem to load certain pages (e.g., Amazon.com). The browser loads most of the page, but then gets stuck on the last item and never finishes loading (so the whole page stays blank). I'm having the same problem in Safari, Firefox, and Internet Explorer. I think it may be a javascript problem. When I turn the javascript option off in Safari, I have no trouble loading the pages. Also, when I look at the safari activity monitor while opening those trouble pages, the .js files are the ones that don't load.
Things I've tried include emptying the browser cache, resetting cookies, emptying my java cache in the utilities section, and making sure all of my software is up to date.
Any help or suggestions you could give me would be fantastic. Thank you so much!

Hello there,
Do you have a style sheet [ CSS ] you are using in Safari-> Advanced Tab? if yes set it to none, and see if that helps.
Whilst in Advanced tab check your network settings & make sure you've no proxies checked on.
In " View " Check your Text encoding try using Unicode.
Have you tried a restart,if the puter that can help.
Have you run permission repair and see if DU reports any errors.
In Utilities Disk Utility, First Aid tab. do not bother with verify perm.
do run repair permissions. Stay on the left side of the Disk Utility
< [ not repair disk ] if you know already, sorry.
Good Luck, I hope something helps..

Some websites fail to load page on safari

Two websites, Twitter and my bank fail to load properly. The page starts to load then hangs when the blus bar is about a quarter of the way across the address bar. The fault is intermittant - sometimes the page loads fine - and it doesn't seem to be the site as if I use another mac the problem is not replicated on it and the page comes up. I have cleared the cache etc and it doesn't seem to help. Any ideas anyone?

You can try resetting Safari using the option under the Safari menu. You might not want to reset everything, so I suggest looking at the options.

Problem loading pages on safari. Each time I load a page it seems to be trying to load the same page multiple times.
