IOS 8.3 Safari issues

I updated my iPhone 6 to iOS 8.3 yesterday. Afterward when I went to my Reading List in Safari, I discovered all of the articles and pages I'd saved were completely gone. My icloud has been full for awhile now and stupidly, I haven't backed up my phone in months so I'm sure all is lost. What's more troubling though is that Safari is completely messed up now. I can't use Reading List at all - I can't add anything, nothing appears when I do. I can't add Bookmarks either. All of my old ones are there, but nothing new shows up. My home screen in Safari shows the usual "Favorites", however, the icons appear messed up. Some of them are only loaded half way.
I've attempted to turn my phone on and off, I've closed and reopened Safari, etc all to no avail. I've tried looking around online, but no one seems to currently be having similar issues. Can anyone provide any help or guidance?

Same problem there is another thread with a number of others with the same problem Safari doesn't work after iOS 8.3 update no answers as yet.

IOS 8 Mobile Safari Issues

Since upgrading to iOS 8 I have experienced issues when using Safari to log into my mobile bank. During the log in process, after entering the 3rd requested character of my password, the focus automatically 'tabs' from this field but the 'Continue' button is not responsive and a blue 'cursor' appears behind it. To continue I have to either click back into the last password character field and click 'Go' or click back into another field on the screen which then 'enables' the button.
I did not have this issue in iOS7 and Chrome browser does not have the issue. The website has not been changed so why has it suddenly changed its behaviour since the upgrade?
Further to this, since the iOS 8.1 upgrade, the 'scroll wheels' used to select, say, a date of birth do not 'remember' the value that you have scrolled to if you click on the next entry field without selecting 'Done'. Again, this was fine until the 8.1 upgrade.
I don't think saying that websites aren't compatible with the Safari updates is good enough as all other browsers I've used do not have the issue.
Any suggestions?
I'm definitely taking the plunge and using Chrome from now on (any issues I've reported seem to have been fixed within a few days), if not moving away from Apple all together if an issue isn't acknowledged and/or fixed (I can see via Google searches that other people are experiencing issues).

I've experienced something similar in that I was on vacation and trying to access the hotel's wifi. And what you expect to happen happened, click on the network to join and the terms and conditions page comes up. My mobile safari even said 'done' as in that it was a success. But in reality the right page hadn't come up and while it showed that I was online,, I really wasn't. I had to open a different browser to get the proper terms page to come up.
I do think there is an issue with how safari handles certain codes. Unfortunately I don't think there is much a user can do beyond have the work around (having browsers other than safari handy). If Apple decides to fix any coding issues with Safari, they'll just quietly do it and roll it out with an iOS update.
You can send them feedback and let them know that your bank's site doesn't work but beyond that there's not much users can do.

IOS 7.1 - Safari issues with Google search results

Since the latest upgrade to iOS on my iPhone 4, I'm have a problem with Safari. When I do a search on Google, the results webpage will not display the forward/back buttons with the change windows button. I have to close Safari, restart and then quickly hit the select window button before the search results display again. All other websites seem to be working fine. Anyone else experience this?

Negative. Try tapping toward the bottom of the screen and the navigation bar will show. You don't have to scroll to make that happen.

Hi, after I installed IOS 7, my safari homepage is shown in Chinese. How to change it to English?

Hi, after I installed IOS 7, my safari homepage is shown in Chinese. How to change it to English?

Hi everyone,
I just ran across this issue myself. Very odd to say the least. The language seems fine everywhere except the "favorites" which appear when you open Safari without a current website open. (kind of similar to where a home page would appear). These are not the same as all of your bookmarks, they are more of a "bookmarks bar" equilvalent that you would see when opening a new tab.
I tried it all to fix this, only to find that Apple is currently investigating the issue.
For those having this issue, you can call AppleCare, (even if you are out of warranty, since this is an iOS 7 issue, atleast for US and Canada customers) to get assistance. 1-800-APL-CARE for US and Canadian customers. It seems Apple's Engineering team is collecting data on this issue right now, though I am not aware of exactly what is being employeed to fix it.
If you don't want to call AppleCare or visit an Apple Store, I will say from personal experience that all of the basic troubleshooting steps failed to fix this issue.
It seems you may want to consider creating an iCloud or iTunes backup. I would also strongly recommend that you sync with iTunes, transfer your purchases in iTunes, and import your camera roll to a computer. And then restoring your device as new using iTunes. And after the restore try restoring from your iTunes or iCloud backup. This should take care of it.
However in extreme cases, it can take restoring and setting up as a new device (and syncing all the data you can back instead of using any kind of backup) to resolve stubborn issues, when they are based in your settings or content.
I hope this helps a little.

IOS 8.1+ Performance Issue

Hello,
I encountered a serious performance bug in Adobe Air iOS application on devices running iOS 8.1 or later. Approximately in 1-2 minutes fps drops to 7 or lower without interacting with the app. This is very noticeable in the app. The app looks like frozen for about 0.5 seconds. The bug doesn't appear on every session.
Devices tested: iPad Mini iOS 8.1.1, iPhone 6 iOS 8.2. iPod Touch 4 iOS 6 is working correctly.
Air SDK versions: 15 and 17 tested.
I can track the bug using Adobe Scout. There is a noticeable spike on frame time 1.16. Framerate drops to 7.0. The App spends much time on function Runtime overhead. Sometimes the top activity is Running AS3 attached to frame or Waiting For Next Frame instead of Runtime overhead.
The bug can be reproduced on an empty application having a one bitmap on stage. Open the app and wait for two minutes and the bug should appear. If not, just close and relaunch the app.

Just updated to IOS 7 and two issues: First when I connect my iPhone to my computer I get this error message:itunes was unable to provider data from sync services".

Just updated to IOS 7 and two issues:
First when I connect my iPhone to my computer I get this error message:itunes was unable to provider data from sync services". I'm not sure what this really means...
The second issue is when I try to select "Manually Manage Music"
The iPhone "My iPhone" is synced with another iTunes libary on "MY-PC". Do you want to erase this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library? An iPhone can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iPhone with the contents of this iTunes library."
So... I don't want to do that, but I do what to be able to Manage my music. I'm not sure what it means by being synced to another iTunes unless it means to an older version of itunes?
Anyone have any ideas?

I cannot address the sync services error right now, but the error that you receive when you change from sync to manually manage music is what happens when you change. Once you change to manually manage music, it erases all of the music and will only put the music that you want on the phone, content that you manually drag over to it. See if this support document helps you out. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1535

System Preferences and Safari issues

Hi I have a very concerning issue with system preferences and a smaller issue with Safari (7.0). When I open system preferences and navigate to the "internet accounts" page and try to remove an account or click the "Advanced" button, nothing happens. I see a faint flicker of the system prefs window but nothing changes. Another example is when I click on the "networks" page and try and open the "Advanced" window, nothing happens. I also can't sign out of iCloud or view my iCloud account information the buttons seem to do nothing. I've already tried installing mavericks again, deleting appropriate plists, resetting PRAM/NVRAM, repairing the disk and repairing disk permissions to no avail and I really need to find a solution. If this helps, the guest account does not have any issues described above. The safari issue is minor but when Safari opens, there is a gray box around the page title in the top bar of safari no matter what webpage im on. I have tried resetting safari, deleting caches and extensions but nothing works. I really appreciate any help with these issues.
Here is an example of the Safari issue.

Do you have the installer DVD? If you do:
Clean Install of Snow Leopard
Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
the drive and everything on it.
     1. Boot the computer using the OS X Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
         with your computer. Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
         After the chime press and hold down the "C" key. Release the key when you see
         a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
     2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
         button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
         After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
         size.) Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window. Set the number of
         partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
         and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
         (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
     3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed
         with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
     4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
         Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
         username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
         Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
         install of OS X. You can now begin the update process by opening Software
         Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.

IOS 8.3 Airplay issue

I have an iPad Air 2 and iPhone 6+, both are upgraded to iOS 8.3 recently.
I've noticed when I am using Airplay to watch web content, usually a short video on a web page, the airplay would gut out randomly (every 3-5 minutes or so). When this happens, the video continues to play on the iPad or iPhone, but seems Airplay connection was dropped. Before the upgrade, those videos were playing on my apple tv streaming from my iPad Air 2 and iPhone 6+ perfectly. I did check my apple TV software, it says no update available.
Anyone else have seen this issue, or have reported similar issue to Apple? Looks like an iOS 8.3 specific issue to me.

Greetings bgeiOS,
If you are having an issue with losing AirPlay connection during use from your iOS devices, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
Get help using AirPlay and AirPlay Mirroring on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
In particular from the section titled If your playback is interrupted, or you have network lag -
You might notice these issues if you have a weak Wi-Fi signal or interference from a different device, like a microwave or baby monitor. Try these steps:
Make sure that you're using the recommended settings for your Wi-Fi router.
Move or turn off other devices that might cause interference.
Try connecting your Apple TV directly to the router using an Ethernet cable instead of Wi-Fi.
Some apps might stop AirPlay when you lock your device or put your device to sleep.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Be well,
Brett L

TS4002 iOS 6.0.1 issues

i completely lost access to mail after installing iOS 6.0.1. It won't even open now.

So to confirm, you have done the following?
1- Hard Reset device.
2- Restarted device.
3- Reset Network Settings.
4- Reset All Settings
5- Restored as New and then trialed issues without having ANY person data on the device.
If you HAVE done all those steps, then have device replaced.
If you have NOT done all those steps, do them, then let us know what happens when they have been done, possibly in a less pretentious and ranting way, realising that a) we are fellow users, we have no control over the situation, so complaining to us does nothing to help you, and b) Dropping game titles and using the FAR too used "Steve Jobs must be..." line does not give you the appearance of intelligence, but someone who's phone doesn't do what they want it to do, and thinks they're the center of the universe because of it.
We realise that there are thousands of results when you search "iOS 6.0.1 issues" in google, but what YOU have to realise is that the results will include duplicate results within single threads, are related to multiple different devices, and in some times use a VERY loose search terms (you may find results like "What issues do you think will be in iOS 6.0.1" as a forum thread) because you have made a broad search.

Youtube and Safari Issues on iPad/Apple devices.

For the last few days I have had a problem with all my apple devices. For some reason Youtube videos will not play, I keep getting the message "This video is currently unavailable" when I try to play any video. This only happens on Youtube through Safari, the app on my 3gs works fine but the app is not for iPad. Another problem that I get only on my iPad is that Safari is acting all weird. When I try to click on a link nothing happens and when I press the back button it goes back 2 or more pages instead of the previous page like its supposed to. Steps I've tried to resolve the problem:
Force close the apps.
Force restart the iPad/All apple devices.
Reset all settings.
Restore iPad through iTunes.
None of the above steps have worked for me and I just don't know what to do. This only happens through wifi but I am certain their is nothing wrong with my wifi as my android devices and my laptop/desktop computer work fine when trying to view youtube videos. As I mentioned this is happening on all Apple devices which include:
iPad 2
iPhone 3gs
iPhone 5
iPod touch 4th gen.
The weird safari issue is only occurring on my iPad.
Any help resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Multiple Safari issues

I've been experiencing a few issues lately but not sure they're related.
1. I receive emails that will not always display the pictures (sometimes they're viewable). Instead, I get the blue box with a question mark. However I can view the same email without issue using my iPhone and iPad, or even from a different email account (I forwarded the email to another one of my accounts to narrow down if it's an email issue, Safari issue or something else).
2. Safari freezes at some point almost everyday and I get the spinning ball. Most of the time, I can't click on other applications so I'm forced to perform a Force Quit. I haven't noticed a pattern such as specific sites, adobe related, etc. It's very frustrating.
3. The overall system performance is slower than it used to be. Sites that used to come up quickly will now sit and wait.
I cleared my cache, and removed a webpageicons.db file based on suggestions in this forum but haven't noticed any changes.
Anyone have any input about my issues?
Thank you!

Hi,
The overall system performance is slower than it used to be. Sites that used to come up quickly will now sit and wait.
Check the startup disk for problems, it may need repairing.
Insert your install disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
Go to Installer menu and launch Disk Utility.
(In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first from the installer menu)
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
(Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
Select your startup disk and click Restart
While you have the Disk Utility window open, look at the bottom of the window. Where you see Capacity and Available. Make sure there is always 15% free space.
Mac OS X (10.6.2) <---- Your profile.</div>
If you are running v10.6.2, you need to udpate your system software. Click the Apple () menu (top left in your screen) Software Update ...

IOS 8.1.1 - Issues with hands free (Parrot MKi9100)

Dear Community...
I have updated my iPhone 5 to iOS 8.1.1. Exactly since that day I am experiencing an issue with my in-car hands free kit (Parrot MKi9100):
Normally, while the iPhone and the hands free kit are connected, whenever the iPhone makes a sound (be it phone-calls, music, notifications or the text-to-speech function), the hands free kit jumps in, muting my car radio and playing the iPhone-Sound over the car speakers.
On iOS 8.0, that would only function with phone-calls, any other sound was not transferred to the hands free kit.
On iOS 8.1, the issue was fixed, and everything worked fine.
On iOS 8.1.1 the following happens: Whenever I wake my iPhone (i.e. pressing home-button or sleep-wake button, even without unlocking the phone) the hands free kit jumps in and mutes the radio... although the iPhone is not about to make a sound... This also happens, when the iPhone is switched to silent mode. Whenever the iPhone-Display is switched on, this will mute my car radio, as if the hands free kit was awaiting a sound from the iPhone.
This makes it impossible to enjoy the car radio and using the phone (of course only the passenger will use the phone, while I'm driving... I am a responsible driver...)
But nonetheless: Is there any known fix?
@apple: If not, will this be fixed with 8.1.2?
Thanks and best regards

i have the same problem with Parrot MKi9100. Before on 8.1 all works fine!

Am using Safari 6.0.5, suddenly my Yahoo mail account won't keep me logged in and the 'keep me logged in' button has disappeared. It is still there on Chrome so am assuming it is a Safari issue. It just happened suddenly. Have reset Safari.

Am using Safari 6.0.5, suddenly my Yahoo mail account won't keep me logged in and the 'keep me logged in' button has disappeared. It is still there on Chrome so am assuming it is a Safari issue. It just happened suddenly. Have reset Safari, cache and also changed my Yahoo password but problem is still there.

I still don't understand what the problem that you are experiencing is. If you get to a page where yahoo is asking JUST for your password, and there is no box for username (it may have your username displayed, but not in a enter box), then you ARE "being kept signed in" You can verify this by instead of entering your password, go to www.yahoo.com home page, and it will say something like "Hi, Amber" This means you ARE signed in.
When you get that page asking for just your password, you are NOT being asked to sign in again. You are simply being asked to verify/enter your assword an Nth time. If you get that page right after entering your username and password, try clicking the "back" (previous page) button. It might just go to your inbox.
If this is the case, your problem has nothing to do with being kept signed in or not, the problem is that for some (unknown to me) reason, yahoo is asking you to re-enter your password, kind of like when your mac asks for your mac password when changing system settings. Yahoo does this as a safety feature when you go to account settings, and apparently abritary other times. I wish I understood just why I get it every time after signing in.
It could be because I have java turned off. It could be because I don't accept third party cookies. Maybe a cache file. Or a hundred other things... I don't know. It could simply be yahoo is scrooing safari users. I have glanced at the html, but to really understand it, it would take me days. There are over 25 places where username and password are in the html "source" code of the yahoo login page, and even understanding that may not tell me. In the past, I have seen code essentiall saying "if IE x.3.2" do this, if chrome do that, if mozilla do something else, otherwise make it next to impossible...."
My problem is not only I get asked for my assword a second time, but also (and only very recently) I do not get a prompt to save username and pasword. I have gone to yahoo help pages to try to figure it out, and I feel like I just run in circles. If one wants to send a question in, they have to answer half a dozen questions disclosing private information. And I pay yahoo $20/year. grrr
If when you are trying to access your yahoo mail and you are being asked to enter both your username and password, but didn't sign out of yahoo, then indeed your are not being "kept signed in"
