How do I stop Safari from refreshing?

How can I stop it from refreshing when:
1) When I press the "back" button, I want it to load what it has previously saved, not to reload the whole page again... this takes much longer and takes up bandwidth
2) When I open the page again after a while: say I have 4-5 pages of different web pages, and when I open one of the pages that I haven't opened for a few minutes it'll load again when I try to go to that page... again, this takes much longer and takes up bandwidth
So how can I tell Safari just to show me what it has previously loaded and tell it to stop refreshing everything? It's quite annoying.
Thanks in advance!

I've submitted feedback on this, and posted in another thread. This reloading issue is a real problem for using mobile boarding passes on airlines which support them, such as Continental and American. You may be able to present your boarding pass and scannable bar code at the bag check or security, but by the time you get to the gate, Safari will decide to reload the airlines' web page with your pass. Of course, this confuses the airlines' servers, and it takes several attempts (and minutes) to recall the correct page.
This unrequested reload is a real issue - it breaks the utility of Safari and the iPhone for this application, and many other web sites which have issues with a reload.

  • How do I stop Safari from refreshing pages on my iPad?

    This is really annoying.  I am not sure if it is related to time or to memory.  (it's not auto-refresh set by the website).  I often load up several web pages in tabs that I would like to read on the train to work.  Unfortunately when I open the tabs, they refresh eating into my data plan.  If I switch off data, then the pages still try to refresh and I can't see them at all.
    surely there must be an iPad Safari option to stop pages from automatically re-loading?

    Did you click on the export icon -- box with an arrow above it?
    Click on add to reading list -- old fashion glasses icon?
    to see click on book icon
    click on glasses.

  • How can I stop safari from auto completing url's on my iphone 4 and ipad2?

    How can I stop safari from auto completing url's on my iphone 4 and ipad2?  On both devices I have cleared history, I have gone into settings-safari-and cleared history and cleared cookies & data, tried turning my devices on and off and I also have private browsing turned on. Both devices are operating on iOS 5.  When I type in a url I don't want anything to show and auto complete.  Any suggestions?

    This indicates corrupt files.
    A restore should resolve.

  • How do I stop Safari from 'pinwheeling' whenever I am using Yahoo Mail? I really need a correct answer please.                                                                                             Mail? I need a correct answer please.

    How do I stop Safari from 'pinwheeling' whenever I try to use Yahoo Mail?
    I really need a correct answer please. Other answers have only suggested how to access Yahoo Mail without using Safari. I want to continue using Safari to access Yahoo Mail,if possible.  Thank you.

    Could be a cookie issue...
    Go to Safari > Preferences then select the Security tab then click Show Cookies
    Type yahoo in the serach field then click Remove All > Done
    Quit then relaunch Safari.
    Try accessing your Yahoo mail account.
    FYI... there is rarely a sure fire correct response for third party web based email client software. Often takes time consuming troubleshooting.

  • How do i stop Safari from freezing while i'm surfing the internet?

    Ok, so here's the problem. Every time I go onto Safari, it doesn't respond after i search for something on google or go on Facebook. now, i have to use Safari in Safe Mode each time and the audio is disabled so i can't watch or listen to music videos. Can someone tell me how to stop Safari from doing this? Thanks. 

    Maybe try another browser like Firefox.
    Also, try creating a new user account on your mac, and log in to that, to see if you continue to have the same problems.

  • How can I stop safari from showing my old entries in a drop down menu?

    I want to make it clear that I am not talking about the url bar. I am refering to suggestions within a webpage where stuff is entered (for example online homeowork for college students). I cannot seem to figure out how to stop safari from filling in my old entries.
    How can I get rid of this box?

    Have you checked the Safari Preferences > AutoFill settings?  The Other forms setting is described as follows:
    Let Safari save information you enter on webpage forms, then automatically fill in the saved information when you revisit the same webpages. To view or edit your saved information, click Edit.

  • How can I stop Safari from opening new windows unless I want them?

    Since Safari 5.02, there is no box to check in the General Preferences to stop Safari from opening a new window when I click on a link. My expectation is to only go to a new window when I want to do it. Most of my searches go down a rabbit hole and I just want to go backwards without closing page after new open page (Same problem with Tabs. I don't want new Tabs all the time either. In fact, the only time I really care about multiple open Tabs or Windows is when I need more than one Window open for data comparison or something like that...)
    This is an incredibly annoying new behavior of Safari that I want to shut off. I have 20 windows open in the Window list right now. (I regularly shut off Safari to clear up all the useless abandoned windows.) Firefox doesn't do this, but I prefer Safari.
    I tried to search this one, but maybe am not framing the question properly. See lots of discussion of forcing new tabs, but that is not what I am looking for....Can anyone help me?

    Thanks Baltwo,
    I will try it, but I don't want new pages in tabs either. I simply don't want the link to open in a new page or tab unless I ask for one. My initial trial has google links opening in new tabs. Why can't I just go down the paths on the same page like the old days? Especially after I find what I want, I will go somewhere else.
    With your recommendation, I think that instead of pages open, I will have an abundance of tabs?
    Guess I am getting inflexible in my old age. If this is the only option, it is an "improvement" that I don't like yet.
    Firefox doesn't do it.

  • Stop safari from refreshing every page i go back to

    Is there a way to prevent safari from refreshing every page i go back to in my browsing history?  what is the point of having a cache if safari is going to refresh every page anyway?
    i dont mean dated stuff like 2 weeks ago, i mean every page.
    i swipe and have to wait while safari refreshes, then swipe back again, wait for the refresh and repeat this.  if i quickly swipe back 4 pages, the 4th page back will appear for a second, then the 1st page re-appears cos it is fully refreshed.
    i thought it was just on Facebook that this happened on, but it is on most pages including google searches and this forum.
    very annoying behaviour.

    I am part of a web marketing company and we discovered a very heavy aggravation on top of all the above described annoyances of the refreshing process of safari on iPhone and iPad.
    If the page in refreshing process it was after a direct click on a google "pay per click add", then safari it would re-emulate the click on the google add as well, who will charge the customer for what it looks like a legitimate click !!!!!
    Now my customer put me in charge to collect all the company server's logs and analyse them through one by one ... (millions…),
    once sufficient data will be available we will start a suing process against apple and google.
    Apple, to allow such automatic unconditioned refreshing generating false "pay per click", and Google for charging the customer for illegal clicks. Keep in mind that we receive from 500 to 600 clicks per day at a CPC min £1.90 to max £6.80 depends from competitors biddings, the highest percentage of clicks its about CPC £3.10, making the company spending easily £3,000 per day.
    in the last 7 days we already discovered that about 10% of the clicks are repetitive from iPhone and iPad refreshing their safari cache, making spend the company about £ 2,000 per week in false clicks. we are also trying to discover when was this process generally started,  ie if its been going on for a year, we are talking of some good (£2000 * 52) £100,000 plus our work to investigate.
    I am a big fan of iPhone, and I hope some apple technician will read this message and take action ASAP, because in the next 3-4 weeks, once our investigation its done, all the info and server logs will be publicised on the web … with unfortunate financial consequences …

  • How do I stop Safari from automatically opening when I start iTunes?

    A couple months ago, something very strange started happening.
    Every time I open iTunes, Safari starts up opened to this page:
    file:///Applications/OmniGraffle.app/Contents/Resources/ja.lproj/OmniGraffle%20H elp/index_Customizing.html
    It is an HTML page for "OmniGraffle Help," even though I have never installed OmniGraffle.
    Anyone know how this came to be and how I can prevent this from happening anymore? Thanks for any help.

    Hi
    This may have something to do with the "Automatically retrieve invitations from Mail" option being enabled? Click on the iCal Menu > Preferences > Advanced. It may also be the Alarms setting? This is for 10.6 iCal so it may be in a different place for 10.5?

  • How to I stop safari from automatically resizing the bookmark bar when I click on the search bar?

    there is probably an eloquent way to ask this but I don't even know what the feature is called.
    Here is what it's doing:
    I'm using safari in landscape mode on my iPad.
    I click on the search bar and then the bookmarks come up below.
    It takes a second to automatically resize to a size that make no sense, usually cutting off bookmark titles...and the delay of it resizes drives me nuts.
    Safari did not used to do this until I guess ios 8. Any ideas how to stop this annoying "feature"??

    Try deleting the Cache.db...
    Quit Safari.
    Go to ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Move the Cache.db file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash.
    Relaunch Safari ...
    You may want to try the Safari Reading List as an alternative to tabs.
    Click the eyeglass icon just to the left of the Bookmarks icon top left side of the Safari window.
    Drag the url to the window or click Add Page

  • How do I stop Safari from automatically loading a URL when I start typing the first few letters in the URL/search bar?

    My question concerns a bug (or feature, I'm not sure which) that I've been seeing for some time on my Safari installations.
    I'm running Lion (the latest patched version) with Safari (ditto). I've noticed that every so often, if I open a new tab and start typing something in the search/URL bar, Safari will not only suggest something based on my history, but will actually begin loading the page as though I had accepted that suggestion.
    For example, today, I typed the letter "b" in the search/URL bar, paused for a few seconds while I was thinking of what to type next, and Safari went ahead and loaded "bugzilla.gnome.org" based on that being the last URL starting with "b" that I happened to have gone to. And the same thing has happened to me on earlier occasions with different web sites. In other words, it's not merely giving me a suggestion, it then proceeds as though I had accepted that suggestion. Sometimes it might happen to be right, but it's the principle of the thing.
    Needless to say, I hadn't inadvertently bumped the Enter key.
    Of course, ordinarily, Safari will just offer a list of suggestions based on my bookmarks and browsing history, maybe filling out the URL bar with the topmost suggestion (while giving me the option of overtyping it if I wish). And, of course, this happens without fail if I've just had Safari preempt me by loading a page and am trying to find out why. Like the best Heisenbugs, this "feature" goes away as soon as I make a concerted attempt to study it.
    I have completely disabled AutoFill in the Preferences dialog. I would clear the cache and history, except that I kind of resent having to do that every time (or turn on private browsing, possibly another option) just to stop the computer from executing an instruction that I haven't even finished giving it yet (and in many cases intend to change).
    Has anyone else seen or been able to disable this feature?

  • How do you stop Safari from removing last download when it's of the same file type? (e.g., when I download a new pps file I can no longer open a pps file that I've just downloaded)

    When I download a .pps file, I can open it from the downloads and everything is great. But if I try to download another one, then I can no longer access the previous download from the download bar. This is very annoying to me as I download and open dozens of these files every day. Is there some way that I can display all the files in the download bar and not just the last file downloaded of a certain type (a way to get Safari to stop hiding the .pps files)

    To prevent Firefox from displaying form autocomplete suggestions, you can turn off that feature using the about:config page.
    In the address bar, type or paste '''about:config''' and tap the Enter/Return key.
    I suggest bookmarking this for easier future access.
    In the search box, type or paste '''formf''' and tap the Enter/Return key.
    Scroll down to '''browser.formfill.enable''' and tap the Toggle button to switch it from true to false.
    That's it. Does it work on Facebook?
    ''The about:config preferences editor in the mobile version is similar in principle to the desktop version but many of the preferences available on the desktop version have no effect in mobile. This one I only tested on one site, but it seems to work.''

  • How can I stop Safari from rampant memory use?

    This is the standard error I get whevener I open up a web page with Safari. The address of the object differs however.
    6/19/13  WebProcess[304]: objc[304]: Object 0x7fe04a41c7d0 of class NSUserDefaults autoreleased with no pool in place - just leaking - break on objc_autoreleaseNoPool() to debug
    And indeed, I have left Safari open for about 2.5 hours with 6 tabs open and it has just been leaking. I have 8 gm RAM installed. I currently have 2.1 GB free. 
    I have the a few apps open in the background, but none of these are running tasks that are leaking.
    I know many people had complained of this same leak in Lion, but Apple supposedly addressed it. I have had this problem with every version of ML up to the current (I am running 10.8.4). I installed the latest version of Java. I have gone through all the standard troubleshooting  and even did a clean wipe and reinstallation a few weeks ago. I ran an extended apple hardware test (memory + gfx cards, logic board=fine), as well as a full block scan of my HDD (clean)-clearly this is a software and not a hardware problem.
    Though Java/flash are eating up memory, they are not leaking. It is specifically Safari Web Content which is leaking. I think this may have to do with OSX endlessly sandboxing web content/ some sort of garbage collection issue.
    One last interesting thing. Looking at the activity monitor, I have seen a couple times Web content's VM jump for a split second to 16 EB (yes exabytes)...the max amount of memory that a 64b processor could hypothetically address...not sure what that's all about...
    Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.  See below Screenshot + etrecheck info + Safari Web Content open file list : Thanks.

    This is the warning, which appears everytime I start up Safari. The PID and HEX address vary everytime, but always relate to Webprocess. 
    Running the cmd: "leaks PID -nostacks -nocontext" yields the following output (seebelow). I guess I should run the dylib update. I can try and see if still occurs...?

  • How do I stop safari from reopening previous sessions even after restart?

    Finally made the leap to Lion.
    WHY does safari insist on starting up and restoring the previous session, all tabs and everything even after a restart.  I've looked in preferences and for the life of me cannot find how/where to turn this off.  I just want Safari to start with a blank page, not reloading the previous page/tabs I had open the last time I used it!

    Thanks QuickTimeKirk for the solution to this - have hated this feature as the default. It is useful if you want to return to something specific, but I reckon the majority of users would rather have the defaults the other way around - homepage as default for new Safari sessions and using the shift key when opening to return to last viewed pages/tabs.

  • How do I stop firefox from refreshing pages constantly? I have to click "back" dozens of times if I'm on a page for more than 15 seconds.

    every page on every open tab refreshes every 30 seconds and each time it is saved in my cache. If I want to go back to a previous page, I have to click back once for every 30 seconds I was on the current page. Very annoying!! It just started doing this recently and I don't know why. I did reset the about:config to "0", but that didn't help.

    '''Reload Every''' doesn't appear in the More System Details attached to your initial posting here, you have something else going on there.
    '''Try the Firefox SafeMode''' to see how it works there. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
    [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode#w_safe-mode-window_2 Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Firefox SafeMode]
    When in Safe Mode... <br />
    * The status of plug-ins is not affected.
    * Custom preferences are not affected.
    * All extensions are disabled.
    * The default theme is used, without a persona.
    * userChrome.css and userContent.css are ignored.
    * The default toolbar layout is used.
    * The JIT Javascript compiler is disabled.
    * Hardware acceleration is disabled.
    * You can open the Firefox 15.0+ SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    '''''If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />
    http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes <br />
    Or it might be caused by Hardware Acceleration.
