Old pages in Safari on iPad

When i swipe back in Safari i sometimes get old sites not the one i had last. Why is that?

Same here. After clicking the BACK button in Safari I get old copies. I am using Ipad 16GB wifi-only.
Issue started with IOS5. It worked fine before.
When the old page is shown, a refresh helps as workaround. Untill Applie fixes it.

  • SETTINGS for "search in page" in Safari? (iPad)

    When using iOS 4.3, "search in page" in Safari browser finds the search word INSIDE words as well.
    Eg: search "wave" and it finds "waves" and "shockwave" as well.
    When using iOS 6, "search in page" in Safari browser finds the search word only in the beginning of words. (Spotlight search I think that's called?)
    Eg: search "wave" and it finds "waves" but not "shockwave".
    Are there any settings where you can choose between theese methods? (Sometimes the other method is more useful than the one you are using for the moment)

    1. The Safari search-in-page has same behaviour as apples "Spotlight" (the global search in iPad and other).
    In the ios6 that apple distributed to my ipad2 the search function DOES NOT search inside words. Neither in ios 5.1.1. But in version 4.3 it DOES search inside words, but apples user-hostile policy prevents us from downgrading ipad2 to ios 4.3.
    2. A reset does not fix that issue. Neither clearing History and so on.
    THE MAIN ISSUE WITH IOS6 ON IPAD2 IS SLOW PERFORMANCE. The hardware in ipad2 is not dimensioned for bloated software like ios6.
    I have now "downgraded" ipad2 to 5.1.1 by getting ANOTHER IPAD2. It is faster in keyboard response and so on than ios6, but not as fast as 4.3. For now I don't care about the search issue. And I will certainly not upgrade ipad2 again to ios6 or anything above.

  • Can I set a home page for Safari on iPad Mini?

    Very simple. Can this be accomplished? Am I missing a setting somewhere? My iPad Mini is fully updated, purchased in December 2012 as a Christmas gift to me. As new as can be. I use my business web page as my home page on Safari on every computer I own, so my iPad Mini is the only device I have not been able to set Safari to display as my start page on my iPad Mini.
    Thanks for your help,
    Kelly J.

    It doesn't have a homepage setting as such, but you can go to a particular site and then create a homescreen shortcut for that page - then when you tap on that shortcut you'll be taken to that page.

  • Swiffy Problem on Safari for IPad

    I just finished an HTML5 site which was done  using Flash CS6 / Swiffy extension to convert to html 5. Site looks great all links work on desktop browsers but in Safari on IPad I get the "operation could not be completed" message. The site validates fine and now I'm stuck with all this work done and an irate client who wants to know why this is happening.
    Site is
    http://dagwaremedia.com/Sheri/index.html
    if go thru the pages on Safari in Ipad you will see the msg pop up.
    start of a bad day, any help?
    RD

    hmm, interesting! The swiffy animation is inside a container, that container is wrapped around a main container which has a css file attached. that css sheet holds the rest of the html and images that make up the entire page as the swiffy animation is just in the header
    I'm gonna do the following, upload two pages of just the Swiffy animation, if I get no erros on Safari mobile then I know its the way my doctype is done as the swiffy doctype and my regualr doctype that dreamweaver CS6 generates is a bit different.
    I will reply back on my findings.
    thx

  • IPad 1 - safari pulls days old pages when going between pages and sometimes drops out

    Does anyone have a problem with Safari whereby, you go from one we page to another and when going back to a previous page, Safari shows a days old page?  In addition, Safari will drop out to the 'desktop' at times for apparent reason.  Doesn't matter if the we page is a simple page or one with video.  This all started with Apple pushing their latest iOS.  Apple wants to charge $30 for you to ask about this problem but it's their iOS that pushed on their product.  Like I stated, it worked fine before their latest iOS push.

    Jesus H Christ this is still driving me up the wall, i can't believe everyone is just accepting this.  Isn't there a way to fix this?  Can we at least have an option to turn this OFF?? Reloading a page everytime i go back is such a waste of time/bandwidth/my nerves when i am in the middle of a page

  • Safari loading old pages?

    Anyone else noticing Safari opening old pages on forums? While visiting several of my daily forums today, I noticed it loading pages that were from my visits last night or yesterday. I'm pretty sure I cleared my history last night, so it must be reading some invalid cookie data?
    If you want to look for this, pay attention to forum pages that load possibly after you post. I noticed this twice on two different forums.
    Anyone else having this happen?

    THIS IS THE WILDEST THING I HAVE SEEN YET!!!
    Earlier this morning (at 9:05am), I replied to a post on a forum FROM MY PC UPSTAIRS.
    Later today (at 12:36pm), I was back on that forum FROM MY IPAD DOWNSTAIRS.
    I read some threads, and at a point, I backed up to the forum index.
    IT SHOWED AS IF I HAD JUST POSTED the comment (from 9am) 19 SECONDS EARLIER!!! (meaning, the page looked like nothing had happened on the forum for nearly 4 hours) There had been HUNDREDS of posts/replies/threads during that time.
    REMEMBER, THIS WAS POSTED FROM A SEPERATE LOCATION AND SEPERATE DEVICE COMPLETELY - A PC EVEN!! I was on a DIFFERENT device many hours later. From two seperated devices that aren't connected in any way, shape or form?!? The iPad was downstairs charging.
    How is that even possible?!? Can anyone even come up with a guess on this one?!? I haven't got a clue!!

  • Safari keeps opening old pages

    Safari keeps opeing old pages even though I have closed them.  It seems like I have several versions of safari open, but I don't think I do.  I just did the latest software update and the problem continues.

    Cdf15,
    You can empty the caches in Safari by pressing Option+Command+E keys. This will likely stop the behavior.
    You might have to remove Safari plist files from User Library (might be hidden hold down option key under Finder window Go Menu>Library>Preferences>com.apple.Safari.plist.
    Place plist on desktop or in Trash without emptying trash, then reopen Safari. This will recreate a new plist.
    Finally you can "Reset Safari" which will remove various Safari settings. "Reset SafarI" is available under the "Safari" Menu…
    Hope this helps, Greg

  • I can't upload pictures to Facebook Pages albums with my IPad Mini 3. I've tried safari too and the basic uploader doesn't work. I can add photos to the wall but I need to put them in albums for my Boutique,

    I can't upload pictures to Facebook Pages albums with my IPad Mini 3. I've tried safari too and the basic uploader doesn't work. I can add photos to the wall but I need to put them in albums for my Boutiqu

    It is peculiar, that Chrome, Safari, and Skype can access FB, but not the iPhoto uploader.
    Do you see any error messages/ diagnostics in the Console Window, when you try to connect to Facebook?
    Launch a Console window from Applications > Utilities and clear the Console Window. Then try to upload. Are there any new messages?
    And also launch a Terminal and have a look, if "facebook.com" is properly resolved:
    Type 
    ping facebook.com
    into the window. Do you see any transmissions? What is the IP address used?
    I see:

  • Safari loads old page when clicking "Refresh" or "Reload"

    Hello Everyone,
    I am using the latest version of Safari (4.0.3).
    When I am viewing a webpage that contains data that is updated frequently (for example, this page in Apple Forums) and I click on "Reload" current page to view the page newly updated, Safari loads the old page...not a new one.
    Anyone having the same problem? Or, perhaps, I have a setting that may need to be changed?
    Your thoughts are much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    joe

    Greetings,
    It sounds like your cache isn't being purged, or there's something preventing it from being purged, so try this:
    1. Go to Home/Library/Cookies and delete the Cookies.plist file.
    2. Go to Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari and delete the contents of that folder.
    3. Go to Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Web Page Previews and delete the contents of that folder.
    4. If you don't want to use the Top Sites feature, open Terminal and paste in this command:
    defaults write com.apple.Safari DebugSnapshotsUpdatePolicy -int 2
    5. Go to Home/Library/Caches/Metadata/Safari and delete the contents of that folder.
    6. Go to Home/Library/Caches/Safari and delete the contents of that folder.
    7. Go to Home/Library/Safari and delete these files (if you have them):
    Downloads.plist
    History.plist
    Form Values
    LastSession.plist
    WebpageIcons.db
    Then Repair Disk Permission, restart Safari and see if the problem continues.

  • IOS8 old page appears in safari

    IT is not a feature that random old page appears for a few seconds when i open safari before last page appears. Can you fix it please?

    Many ISP's are serving pages from cached data. You should call your provider and ask them what to do to get a "fresh" page.
    They may give you newer DNS locations that may help.
    Meanwhile try adding a question mark (?) at the end of the URL:
    http://apple.com becomes http://apple.com/?

  • Why does my iPad 2 have a broken leaf when turning it on and the bottom of the main APP page with Safari is now tan??

    My iPad 2 shows a leaf off to the side when I turn it from off and the page where Safari is (well,that strip) is now tan??  HELP I've shut it down several times

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

  • I upgraded the Pages version on my iPad and iPhone some weeks ago. The App has not synced previous data on both AND it's unstable on both. Luckily I didn't upgrade on my Mac where the old version is working ok! What to do??

    I upgraded the Pages version on my iPad and iPhone some weeks ago. The App has not synced previous data on both AND it's unstable on both. Luckily I didn't upgrade on my Mac where the old version is working ok!

    You need the new versions of both to sync data between them. If you don't have the new versions on your Mac, they will not sync.
    BTW, the new versions do NOT overwrite the old on Mac. When you install them, the old versions are retained.

  • Can not open any web page in Safari

    can not open any web page in Safari on the IPad.  All other wireless features work fine.

    If this does not work then try a reset ,
    Reset your iPad by pressing the 'Sleep' and 'Home' button at the same time for about 15 seconds or so. Your iPad  will then go through a reset / reboot procedure and will be ready for use within about a minute.
    Don't worry about doing this as you will not lose data or settings.
    Good luck and do report back.
