Post Leopard/Safari Not Good and Firefox Is Much Faster /Why?

I have used Safari for years. After Leopard install, it seemed slower and often never fully loads,
I experimented with Firefox and it loads fine and is much faster
I have even run them at the same time side by side ... Safari is slow, doesn't load fully and Firefox goes to it.
So it's not my airport connection. Anyone know?
Also when is a delete and reinstall in order as I have had problems with Itunes, ICal, Safari, Disk Utility, Address Book etc. I have been taking them down one by one but it is very time consuming and not 100%
Thanks

    Usually if you have some kind of hardware failure there is some beeping during POST or most motherboards now have LED indicators to produce and error message based on the type of failure
    So if its bad memory, not place properly, mismatched, processor not inserted properly, mismatched voltage or voltage connector not present etc it beeps or generates the error id.
    Power supplies can be tested for failure. There are some walk throughs for testing just them with a switch, paperclip or a jumper (I'd suggest not doing this if you are not familiar with the dangers of electricity).
    Memory can be tested with memory diagnostics programs like Memtest+
    Processors can overheat if the proper precautions have not been taken usually you will get a POST beep or error code for that.
    If the motherboard has no response then do the basics first:
    Check power connectors and power supply. Once you determine that is not the case move on to other items like graphics cards in all the way or memory.

  • I have just got an iMac 21" and it continuously freezes when it goes to sleep and also when the internet is trying to load, i have tried three different browsers but it still does it (safari, google chrome and firefox), does anyone know what is wrong?

    I have just got an iMac 21" and it continuously freezes when it goes to sleep and also when the internet is trying to load, i have tried three different browsers but it still does it (safari, google chrome and firefox), does anyone know what is wrong?

    To fix the freezing when sleeping problem go to System Preferences>Energy Saver and set 'Computer Sleep' to 'Never'. It seems there is a problem for some with Bluetooth failing to wake after sleep. This fixes it 100% for me and many others on here, until Apple issue a software update to address it.
    Not sure what to suggest on the internet problem. I assume you are connected and receive and send emails OK.
    Edit: To try to troubleshoot the internet issue maybe try turning the Firewall off: System Preferences>Security & Privacy>Firewall tab.

  • I am using oracle Apps ERP in firefox wherein there is a Java Plugin , This is working fine in 3.5 version but as soon as i am upgrading to the latest version oracle is not working and firefox crashes. I can't upgrade even though i wish to

    We are using Oracle ERP in our company which is a web based ERP system. I am using firefox to work in ERP for convinieince pf working and using internet at the same time. This requires a plugin provided by oracle oajinit.exe to be installed in Plugins it is a JAVA plugin which opens the ERP Screens. This works fine in versions prior to 3.6 version of firefox. However, after upgrading to 3.6 version the forms do not open and firefox crashes. Due to this i am not able to upgrade to the latest version else i'll have to operate the ERP in internet explorer and using firefox for browsing which i do not want. The plugin used for the ERP is "* JInitiator 1.3.1.18 for Netscape Navigator (DLL Helper)"

    Firefox 3.6 needs the Java Second Generation Plugin which comes with newer versions than 1.6.0_03 - update Java, the latest version is 1.6.0_22

  • I have purchase iphone4 from someone,it is not factory unlock ,how can i get it factory unlock,its safari not working and its not showing drive on my computer

    i have purchase iphone4 from gray market,it is not factory unlock,how can i get it factory unlock,
    its safari not working and it is not showing drive in my computer.

    iPhones are sold in carrier-locked and unlocked versions. If the phone has a carrier lock on it, you must contact the carrier to have it removed (you probably need to bring the phone to the carrier for the process). If you don't know the carrier, you won't be able to get it unlocked. US carriers will not remove the carrier lock and it cannot be removed.
    How is Safari behaving that makes you say that Safari is not working? The lock status of the phone won't affect Safari, except that if the phone is locked and you aren't using the carrier (and SIM provided by the carrier) to which it is locked, then you can't use the phone or 3G service, only Wi-Fi.
    The iPhone should not appear as a drive on your computer, so there's no error there.

  • Safari not loading and Itunes not playing

    safari not loading and "itunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration audio video may not operate properly".
    Both were working normally before the used "Apple Software Update" to update all my apple software on 15Apr2012
    I wish I didn't disable my system restore, but is there a way I can downgrade Safari and iTunes if this problem can't be a fixed
    Must be a problem with just apple software since no other audio application have problems.
    Quicktime works properly.
    Thanks in advance.

    Is it just showing blank web pages? Or is something a bit different going on?

    You need to contact iTunes support. We are users here just like you and would have no idea why it isn't working. At the bottom of the iTunes Store page in iTunes there is a contact link.

    Give examples of how it is slow.

  • Leopard Safari not as Good as Tiger

    I have had several problems with various web sites since upgrading to Leopard. On one site Safari doesn't recognize automatically checked boxes. On another site Safari doesn't read the text. Is any one else experiencing these difficulties? My own solution was to download Opera for Mac which doesn't seem to have these problems.

    We have an iMac and I followed the upgrade and have to say am also quite disappointed in performance.
    I am constantly informing people of how pleased I have been since converting to a Mac from the machine logging out when I ask in a few seconds and a fast initial startup, in contrast to any Windows experience!
    I also feel that Leopard is not as snappy and the main problem I have at present is that apps are not exiting and the Force Quit is not having any affect. Right now, iPhoto does not appear to have closed correctly and I cannot restart it. If I try and log off this will not happen for ages..so now I am back to a typical Windows OS behaviour..very disappointed and wish I was not tempted to be an early adopter.
    As many have said I am sure that Apple will get things sorted with an update.
    Does any body know how to kill these apps using a different method?
    Regards
    Andy

  • Photos pages only working in Safari, not IE or Firefox

    I have a website with quite a few photos pages on a site, and they only seem to load reliably in Safari, and not in Firefox or IE. A reload will sometimes fix the problem. Has anyone else seen behavior like this? An example of this is:
    http://marilynstevensphotography.com/2008Senior1.html
    You can click on the gallery link on the nav bar, and see links to many other pages that behave the same way.
    Thank you!

    Hi,
    I have the same issue. With Firefox 3b5 the page referenced above (original post) doesn't show properly, no pictures show at all... the whole "album" is just ignored. However, it looks fine in Safari and Firefox 2.0.14. So, there is some issue with Firefox 3b5 and iWeb's album page. I have the same problem with my page at http://www.fci-tv.com As far as I know my page works on Windows with IE (whatever version comes with XP).
    Regards,
    Chad
