IPhone5s Sometimes Lags When Browsing The Internet?

My iPhone5s sometimes lags when I'm browsing the internet so I find myself scrolling and the page not moving, it does not seem to be related to a particular web browser. It can be very annoying. Is this likely to be software or hardware related? Has anyone else experienced this?

On what website?

My iPad air keeps crashing and freezing when browsing the internet . Please help :(

My husband and I updated to the new OS. Now our iPad Air's keep crashing and freezing whilst browsing the internet. We have done a reset and swiped away pages but nothing is helping. Its very frustrating Can anyone help? Thank you Jo

Please tell me that it has NEVER been jailbroke. If it has not been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures:
First, confirm that this is what you did for a "reset." Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, since you have IOS-7, read this.

Did Lion eliminate the finger gestures for show the previous page and show the next page? I've checked system settings for the track pad and it looks like the got rid of one of my favorite finger gestures when browsing the internet. How do I get it back

I've upgraded to LION. It looks like LION eliminates the finger gestures within internet browsing that used to yield navigating to the previous page or navigating to the next page. I think it was a 3 finger swipe to the left and a 3 finger swipe to the right. It looks like this has been eliminated. I've gone into the system preferences and went through all the new settings for the track pad finger gestures. I've not found a combination that allows me to swipe on the track pad to do the page forward / page back function.
How to I get this back? I was my favorite one and now I can't get there!

For going back to the previous page try a 2-finger gesture. Two fingers in the other direction will take you back.

How do I prevent copies of pdf docs to desktop when browsing the internet?

This has been bugging me for a long time. I can't find any settings anywhere to disable this. Every time I view a pdf document from an internet browser window, it automatically saves a copy to my desktop. My desktop gets littered with these if I'm viewing a lot of docs. Is there a way to turn off this "feature?" Thanks in advance.

Hi, and Welcome to the Discussions!
One way is to use Safari>Preferences>General>Download Files to..., and set it to another Location... I make a Folder in Documents called Downloads for this.
To completely eliminate downloading it at all, try PDF Browser Plugin...

How do I know which I am using when browsing the internet, Wi-fi or my carrier's network?

Thanks in advance!

By the icon on the display.
Have a look at the manual:
If you see the wi-fi icon by the signal display, then it is wi-fi. If you see 3G or E or GPRS, then it is cellular.

Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

Note:
Also consider Deleting any Apps you have Purchased / Downloaded but you now never use..
If necessary...
Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and “ Restore “...

Is normal when i connect to wifi i can't view the bb icon whoever that i can browser the internet normally

is normal when i connect to wifi i can't view the bb icon whoever that i can browser the internet normally, i have bb curve 9360

Hi and Welcome to the Community!!
It might be normal...I've heard (while rare) of some carriers preventing their BB users from using BB-proprietary services via WiFi. But, with a strong carrier network signal (e.g., not WiFi), I do suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
1) Register HRT
KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive to your Messages app
2) Resend Service Books
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
Please wait for "Activation" Messages, one per already configured email account, to arrive in your Messages. If you have no already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.
3) Batt Pull Reboot
With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should contact your mobile service provider for formal support.
Good luck!

ITunes skips, stammers when I browse the Internet

This didn't occur before I upgraded to 7.0+.
I used to be able to browse the internet to my hearts content AND listen to iTunes. No longer.
Looking through Best Buy's weekly ad? Skips.
Searching for something on eBay? Skips.
I don't think I should buy a second computer to listen to iTunes. I have an AMD Athlon 64 processor with 2 GB of RAM. I ought to be able to surf the web and listen to iTunes at the same time...
Does anyone have any ideas? Apple has been unresponsive.

This seems to be a very common problem after upgrading to iTunes 7. Apple offer this help on troubleshooting the problem:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93610
Some people, like me, never completely resolve the problem. I got rid of most of the stuttering except when a large program was loading by following the above advice.
In the end I downgraded back to 6, but this is only possible if you have an iPod that is OK on 6 and you don't want the content offered on V7.

Does FaceTime still work when you're browsing the Internet simultaneously

Does FaceTime still work when you're browsing the Internet simultaneously on your phone?

in my experience with facetime, you can't browse other apps or features while on a facetime video call.

When using the internet, my web browser window goes blank

It does this quite often:
When using the internet, the web browser screen will go completly blank after 2 secs of loading.
I will see the page, then after two seconds it is gone, and the web browser is completely white.
Once, one page or tab does it, all the others start doing it.
It is very frustrating, and happens quite often.
Does this happen to anyone else, and does anyone know why or how to fix it??

The next time you have the problem, note the exact times when it starts and ends: hour, minute, second.
If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ If you’re running OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
Scroll back in the log to the time you noted above. Post any messages timestamped during that interval – the text, please, not a screenshot.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.

My App Store keeps coming on when I browse the internet.

My App Store keeps opening when I browse the internet?

If you accidentally tap on a link that is for an App Store app, that will open the App Store. Try clearing Safari, close Safari and then reboot your iPad and see if that fixes this.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear Cookies and Data.
In order to close Safari, Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the Safari app and then swipe "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.

Slow browsing the Internet

I have a very, very strange issue with my BT Infinity.
When I browse the Internet, 20% of pages I want to open, it takes like 3-10 seconds where the browser stays at 'waiting for xxxxxx' before loading this page (similar to dns issues when a PC cannot resolve an IP address and waits forever). It is weird as it is not the same page every time. I can e.g. open 10 pages without any issues and then 3 pages are slow as hell. When I try them again, sometimes they are fast sometimes not. No obvious connection here...
What I have checked so far:
- speedtests show 60Mbps/12Mbps, 7-15ms
- DNS servers hard coded to google and later to open-dns, tested with nslookup - fast and no issues
- tested with two wired devices - the same problem
- ping check ran for 24 hours: 99,9999% received, a few pings dropped only!
- no speed issues, tested with ftp: download speed was around 7MBps and stable
- no issues with Skype (including video skype).
- tried different browsers on these two PCs
Not sure what else I can do. I can imagine it will be a nightmare trying to explain it to a 1st line support BT engineer over the phone...

Well, just a suggestion for something to look at. Do you use any ad-blocking software?
I ask becasue I use a customised hosts file to block most ad-serving sites, and one effect of this is that some websites seem to be coded to wait for a response or a time-out from the advert server before loading their own pages. One forum I use will sit there blank for 15 seconds if it wants to send me a new advert from the Google ad-servers, because I have them blocked via hosts. Some other sites are similarly slow to load.
It's an irritation, but as it's self-inflicted I can't really complain!

How to use your Treo 750 to browse the internet on your mac

Hi There,
I am by no means an expert on this, but this is what has worked for me. I'm on Vodafone in New Zealand but I think this setup (or very similar) should work with Cingular in the states or other Windows Mobile v5 devices.
1. Install The Windows Mobile Modem Scripts Onto Your Mac
Download the Generic Windows Mobile Modem Scripts (3 of them) from: http://www.taniwha.org.uk/
The scripts are under "Windows Smartphones & BlackBerrys" called "Scripts for Windows Mobile phones" (half way down the page)
Once downloaded, put the scripts into >Library >Modem Scripts
2. Start Bluetooth on the Treo
Go >Start Menu >Settings >Connections (from the bottom) >Bluetooth
Tick "Turn on Bluetooth"
Tick "Make this device discoverable to other devices"
Click OK
3. Pair The Treo with your Mac (done on the Mac)
If the Bluetooth menu is not already on your mac (near the date and time, top right) go to >System Preferences >Bluetooth
Under the "settings" tab tick "Show Bluetooth status in the menu bar" and the menu will appear
Once the menu is there, choose "Set up Bluetooth Device..."
Click "Continue" and on the next screen choose "Mobile Phone". Click "Continue"
Make sure the screen on the Treo is on (I've found the mac has trouble discovering the device otherwise)
Choose your phone and click "Continue"
Click continue and enter the pass code on the Treo and click "Next"
Once pared, on the phone click "Finish"
On the mac, make sure "Access the Internet with your phone's data connection" is ticked and click "Continue"
Enter your Vodafone (or Cingular) account username and password (see notes below)
Under phone number enter: *99# (this invokes GPRS or the 3G data connection)
Choose "Windows Mobile GSM 460k" from the "Modem Script" pop up menu
Click "Continue"
Click "Quit"
Select the new phone from the Bluetooth Devices list and press the "Edit Serial Ports" button from the left
Click the plus sign under the main window
Name it "Treo750" (or Cingular or Vodafone or whatever you want)
Choose "Modem" from the "Port type" pop up menu
Tick "Require pairing for security" and "Show in Network Preferences"
Click "Apply"
4. Configure The Bluetooth Port
Go >System Preferences >Network
Choose "Network"
A "New Port Detected" window should pop up, click "OK" (if it doesn't and you have a new "Bluetooth" port, don't worry)
Select the "Bluetooth" port from the list and click "Configure"
Under the PPP tab, click the "PPP Options" button from the bottom
Untick "Send PPP echo packets" and "Use TCP header compression" under "Advanced Options"
Click "OK"
Click the "Apply Now" button from the bottom right
Close System Preferences
5. Connecting to browse the internet from the mac
Go >Applications >Internet Connect
Click "Bluetooth" from the top
Tick "Show modem status in menu bar"
Quit internet connect
Make sure the Treo is on and bluetooth is on (and your data connection is on, see notes below)
Go up to the internet connect menu (the little phone icon) and select "Connect"
Notes
For the carrier account name and password, I just used the same account info that was on my phone under >Start >Settings >Connections >Connections Icon >Manage existing connections >Edit "VFNZ Internet" (or your carrier name) >Next Screen >Next Screen >Next Screen. On this third screen, I found my account details.
If for you there is nothing, then more than likely your carrier doesn't require a name and password - so on your Mac, leave these fields blank and just enter *99# for the phone number. Although, I think you may have to use something (for Mac & Windows Mobile compatibility) so just try entering username: guest and password: guest. There is much more info regarding this in the readme file that comes with the Windows Mobile modem scripts. Or contact your carrier for your specific details (probably the best thing to do!).
I have found the connection to be a little bit unreliable when the Treo's screen goes to sleep - so I tend to hit a button on the treo every 30 seconds to keep it on - But Vodafone here in NZ has flashed the ROM to make it HSDPA compatible so others may not have this problem.
I had trouble the first time I tried to connect through internet connect. But after I connected through >System Preferences >Network >Bluetooth >Connect button next to the configure button at the bottom, it worked every time from the Internet Connect menu.
Also, you may want to check your email or browse a page on the Treo first, just before connecting from your mac to make sure the data connection is on - I haven't worked this out fully but I'm not sure the Mac can open the data connection itself. Again, this may be a region/carrier specific issue.
Cheers
Ben
Macbook, Treo 750v (Vodafone)

I've also found The Missing Sync to work much better than Pocket Mac for syncing the Treo to the Mac.
