IOS 8 Safari blank screens

Ever since I installed iOS 8, Safari has been rendering the occasional page as a blank screen. This seems to occur frequently if I change tabs and then swap back, and reloading the page doesn't seem to do anything. The solution I have found for the moment is to rotate the device which causes the page to show correctly, then rotate back. This is clearly not a permanent solution and I would love to know how to fix the issue.

Same here on 4th-gen iPad. 100% reproducible in certain spots. If I start to backspace and delete text, it gets real sluggish. I'm wondering if the spell check is causing it to hang. iOS 8 IS A DISASTER!

IPad (classic) + yahoo mail + safari = blank screen madness

Hello,
Apologies if this has been asked and answered. I found no comparable thread.
Accessing yahoo mail via safari. Intermittently, and now quote often, I see only a blank screen after long in.
Tried resetting, and resetting network. Tried also clearing cache and cookies. No luck.
I put same q to yahoo.
Grateful for ideas.

No replays. I noticed I can't open news links on the main Yahoo page, either.
My work-around has been to download the Atomic Web browser. It works very well and doesn't have the problems in Yahoo currently experienced with Safari.

PDFs won't open in Safari; blank screen with Quicktime logo opens instead

When I click on a link to a PDF file within a Safari browser window, the PDF file does not open (in Acrobat or Acrobat Reader) as desired, or as it once did. Rather, now a new window opens with a Quicktime logo showing agains an otherwise blank white field and no other info is present. I can't seem to open any PDF files from any web source, nor can I right click to download them to my computer for opening later. I have read other postings on this subject, and upon opening my library/internet plug-ins folder, I find that no plug-ins at all are present.
How can I get Safari to open PDFs normally? I can't seem to find any relevant preference settings in either Safari or Acrobat which have any effect on this problem.
My operating system is 10.3.9, and my version of Safari is 1.3.2. My version of Acrobat reader is 7.0.9, and my version of Acrobat is 5.0.5. Thanks for any advice...!

ITunes iOS 7 Blank Screen (fix)

On your iPhone, go to Settings, Safari, Block Cookies
Select "From third parties and advertisers"
Kill iTunes Store app in the Multitasking Bar
Try iTunes Store app again
Hope this worked for you!

Sorry to ask this but what do you mean by step 4, "go to the homepage and stop running settings".
The other problem I have is that iBooks is also blank and the search in the App Store doesn't work. I am afraid to delete anything because I won't get it back.
Thanks for your help.

Pdf in Safari: Get a blank screen when I click on a PDF

[Inventory]
Safari 5.0.5
Acrobat Pro 9.4.4 up-to-date
Acrobat Reader 10.0.3 up-to-date
iOS 10.6.7
[Problem]
When I surf the internet using the Safari browser And I click on a link that is a PDF, I get a blank screen. The PDF does not render in the new Safari window. What happened?

Hay there
I JUST FIXED THIS PROBLEM ON MY OWN COMPUTER
--YIPPEE--
I hope that this will help all those safari user that have been resisting the urge to put a fist through the screen like i was.
1) there is a hidden 'library' folder in the "home" (looks like the little house) account -- you have to unhide it and make your change there
2) i found it by doing a search for "pdf plugin" in the search area (by that litte mignifying glass icon thing)
3) here is the path. home/library/internet plugins/
4) once you are in this folder you have to swap out all the old crap that's there for the new/updated stuff
this is were you made sure your plugin are correct
HINT: i copied all the pdf related plugins from the other "library" (the ones that were recent installs) into this one
I then restarted safari and it was cool beans

YouTube will not work on safari for me on the ipad. Is there anyway to fix this? I can go anywhere else on the internet fine and it works on google chrome, but on safari it shows a blank screen with the bar on top after it loads.

I do not know if it's relevant or not, but I got a message on my ipad while on safari saying that my iPhone has a virus. I looked it up and it seems it might have just been an ad from the website I was on, but it happened around the same time YouTube stopped working.

You will find that using the YouTube app will provide a better viewing experience for YouTube videos.

I can't get into safari!! When ever I try to go into safari, it's a blank screen

Sorry you did not get an answer to this,but I do note you are apparently now using firefox 10.0.2.
One reason for the rapid release cycle that Firefox has now adopted is to keep firefox secure and up to date. You may even find Firefox itself offers some of the facilities that the troublesome AVG offers. And MS offer free AV with MS security essentials.
AVG often seems to cause problems with firefox.

I have a 3rd generation iPad running iOS7.0.2, and since updating to iOS7, it will not mirror to an AppleTV. The devices will connect, but the video monitors show only a blank screen. The AppleTV's work fine with various other iOS & OSX devices. Ideas?

I have three AppleTV's where I work. I have two at home. I have an iPhone 4S running iOS7.0.2 which mirrors smoothly via AirPlay. I have a 2011 MacBook Pro and a 2011 iMac, both running Mountain Lion, both of which mirror smoothly through AirPlay. I have a 3rd generation iPad running iOS7.0.2, and since updating to iOS7, it will not mirror. The iPad will connect to the AppleTV, but the TV's and projectors only show a black screen when connected: the iPad screen looks as it should, except that the transitions become jumpy when connected via AirPlay. This is true on both networks: at home and at work. Another gentleman using the network where I work has the most recent iPad, also running iOS7.0.2, and he is having the same problem. I have tried to "Reset All Settings." I have tried to "Restore." Does anyone have any suggestions? Has anyone else experience difficulty mirroring the iPad through AirPlay since the release of iOS7.0.2?

No problems exists with the router (on either network described above) or the multiple AppleTV's which are able to mirror multiple other OSX & iOS devices seamlessly. The problem is strictly with the iPad and iOS7.

This is an iOS 7 AirPlay mirroring bug...
To make matters worse, the iPad automatically drops its mirroring session 45 seconds after it auto-locks.
3-4 mirroring sessions is all it takes for the iPad mirroring to freeze up.
After this happens, mirroring to an Apple TV only projects a blank screen.
Once the mirroring is hung, the only way to fix it is to restart the iPad.
Apple please fix this iOS 7 issue!

Hello pichastos,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
To troubleshoot this issue where your camera is displaying a black screen, please follow the information outlined below.
You see a closed lens or black screen
If you see a closed lens or black screen when you open the Camera app, try these steps:
Make sure that there’s nothing blocking the camera lens. If you’re using a case, try removing it.
Force the app to close, then open the Camera app again.
Restart your device, then open the Camera app again.
If your device has a front and rear camera, try both cameras by tapping (camera swap icon). If you see the closed lens or black screen on only one camera, take your device to an Apple Retail Store or Authorized Service Provider for more help.

Game Center is blank screen after iOS 7.06 update.

I installed the new security update on my iPad, and now Game Center is just a blank screen. In Settings, the app info screen is also blank, with the little spinner going. Because Game Center nips broken, I can't log into my favorite games. Can anyone help? Did this happen to anyone else?

Hello Krudin,
I'd recommend signing out of Game Center, force closing any open apps, then restarting your iPad.
You can sign out of Game Center at the following location:
iOS: Tap Settings > Game Center.
OS X: Click your Game Center account on the Me pane, and then View Account.

my apple store isn't working after I updated to ios 8.1.3, its just a blank screen and it won't load after doing everything I can to make it work again. I even restarted the phone and I just don't know what to do at this moment.

Sign out of the Appstore and back in and it should resolve the issue.

Safari not opening pdf; getting blank screen

Using OSX Lion. When I click on a pdf to open in Safari, I get a blank screen on the browser. No trouble with same pdf using other browser.

Back up all data.
Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then launch Safari and test.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

After overlaying Air SDK 3.6, iOS projects show a blank screen after startup.

Hi,
I recently overlaid Air 3.6 in Flash Builder 4.7. My projects are using stage3D via Starling. Using the 3.4 SDK that comes installed with FB 4.7, my projects compiled and run fine with both debug and release builds. After overlaying the 3.6 SDK, the projects work fine in the simulator and on Android but when I run the projects on iOS I get a blank screen. I reverted to the 3.4 SDK and my projects work fine on iOS. But, I'd like to be able to have access to the features of 3.6, any and all suggestions would be very much appreciated.
Thank you for you time.
Chris

Did you follow these exact directions?
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-builder/kb/overlay-air-sdk-flash-builder.html
(They changed recently and are updated for Flash Builder 4.7)
For step 4, all you have to do is create the blank strip folder - don't need to copy the other files with 4.7 and AIR SDK 3.6.

I hate that with ios 7 my bookmarks show up on the safari home screen. Is there a way to remove the icons from the screen without deleting my bookmarks completely?

I have recently updated to ios 7. On my safari home screen there are my favorites listed. I absolutely hate it. Is there anyway to remove the bookmarks from the safari home screen without deleting my bookmarks completely? I am resisting the urge to throw the whole **** thing away and buy another tablet. Please help me! I usually love the updates but I feel ios 7 is more than I can bare. If I wanted Window's crappy format I would have bought a Microsoft product!

On your safaris home screen is a square icons consisting of your favorites and the IOS 7 favorites ( Disney,Apple,Yahoo,Etc) and I knew I wouldn't use these so I wanted to learn how to delete them. So, after messing around a few times with them, I realized how easy it was to delete them. All you have to do is go to the top right corner of your homepage and click on the book icon (found left of the cloud icon). Once you click on it, your history for safaris searches should come up. On the top left corner above your history should be " <Bookmarks " written in blue. Click on that and a list consisting of these should come up ( top to bottom of list ) FAVORITES / HISTORY / GOOGLE /BING / IPAD USER GUIDE. Click on FAVORITES. Your list on the favorites on your home screen should come up. Simply slide over the item to your left (EX.. Yahoo) and a DELETE button in red should come up. Click delete and your done, the icons should disappear on your home screen. Only bad is that you have to delete them from your favorites too.
