Safari bizarre bug: web page loading but not rendering

Discovered a very bizarre behavior in Safari 5.1 (OSX 10.6.8) in which, after logging in to a secure internet banking site, the subsequent page loads into the browser (address bar updates new url and source code reflects new page), but the screen fails to redraw the new page. The bizarre thing is that the previous page, which is still visible, is not functional, the links and navigation for the new page are, however. So I can continue navigating through the site blindly by finding links with the mouse hover state, all while the original log in screen still appears in the window. Cannot reproduce this on any other browsers, including Safari 5.0.6
Anyone have any insights or experience with this kind of behavior?

Write down the password to the banking site. Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. Launch Safari and test. Same problem? After testing, log out of the guest account and disable it if you wish.

  • A certain real estate web site loads, but not the photos. IE does it OK.

    www.domain.com.au is a real estate sales page. Most of the site loads but not the photos, just a word 'House' in its place. I tried same site on IE and it all loaded correctly.

    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load
    It is possible that you clicked "Block Images" in the right click context menu while trying to save an image.
    Check the image exceptions: Tools > Options > Content: Load Images: Exceptions<br />
    See [[Options window - Content panel]]
    *A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon (<i>Site Identification</i> icon) on the left side of the location bar.
    *A click on the "More Information" button will open the Security tab of the "Page Info" window (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
    *Open the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Page Info" window.
    *Select the first image and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow key.
    *If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

  • Web pages load but way down the page is where the material starts. doesn't load and show from the top of the page why?

    web pages are not loading right. loaded page material starts way down the page.

    Try "Ctrl+0" (zero) to restore normal size, see if that does anything.
    Please provide the url.
    Please paste the following into the location bar and report the size of your current window. (will not work from location bar in Firefox 7.0.1 but your version is more practical)

  • Safari "Pauses" During Web Page Load

    This is a tough one. I'm having a problem where Safari will partially load a page, any page, then pause for up to 30 seconds, and either load the rest of the page or show "?" in a bunch of places and load the page incorrectly. I can't find anything wrong with my internet connection, router, or anything. ISP insists it's a software issue. This issue does not manifest in Camino or Firefox. Installed Safari 4 Beta and it did not fix the issue. Uninstalled Safari 4 and it did not fix the issue. Any ideas?

    I have some more information.
    I did a trace on my network to see if there are any problems. I traced to http://www.msnbc.com. Everything seems normal until hop 15 or 16. That is where I get the following:

    hi
    tough to test it then....have you tried any other Mac browsers? Firefox or Camino or Opera perhaps.
    Occasionally, the old IE5 for macs can work in these cases, where no other mac browser will - but I'd try some more modern ones first.
    I'd also suggest asking the webmaster if there are known issues with macs when logged in.

  • Safari 4.0.3 running OSX 10.6.1 -  Pages are loading but NOT thumbnails?

    Just upgraded to OSX 10.6.1 running Safari 4.0.3 last week - everything was working BEFORE the upgrade - but now for some reason I have an issue where pages ARE loading including larger banners, text flash animations etc, but if the site contains small thumbnails they are not loading.
    The icon in the web bar spins and spins for ages and then suddenly where the thumbnails should be I get the blue question make as if the links are broken - which there not as this is happening to well know sites such as youtube gettyimages and ebay and its just to the thumbnails?????
    Take ebay for example, the homepage page loads in fine, and if I search for a product - the page with the listing all loads but not the thumbnail images, yet if I click a listing the full page loads without a problem?
    Any advice, I have cleared the cookies and javascript database all to no avail?

  • Slow web page loads on Mac, but not for PC

    I use a D-Link wireless router (DI-524) for my PowerBook G4 15" and my roommate's Dell PC. Very recently I seem to get very slow web page loads with some pages not even loading at all.
    Airport is consistently connected with no drops at all and when I'm downloading something it never gets interrupted the whole way through.
    My roommate's PC has no problem whatsoever and all of the web pages that he visits load instantly. It seems that my main problem is with web pages.
    I've tried doing a clean install on my Powerbook, I've tried resetting the router (I've tried upgrading the firmware but the router decided it didn't want to work with the new version). And surprisingly, I get the same slow speeds when I hook up my Powerbook to my router via ethernet cable. The only time my speeds are perfectly fine is when I hook up my Powerbook directly to the wall (I dorm in a university so we have a T3 line).
    Can someone please give me some advice on this very frustrating issue?

    In addition to Neds suggestions, empty the Safari cache (which should be empty after a clean install).
    Goto the Safari Get Info screen (in Finder or in Dock if you have Safari there), click the triangle on languages, and disable those you don't use.
    My Safari response time was significantly slowed after the 10.4.5 update, and using the combo updater took care of that. The 10.4.6 combo update is located here.

  • My Internet Connection is Fast, but Web Pages load slowl

    I have tested my connection on several websites. I am using RoadRunner and I consistently get speeds between 3500-4500 kbps. In the past few days I have the same internet speed but all my web pages load really slow. Up until this problem I would click on a link and it would take 2-3 seconds to load the next page. Now it is more like 15-20 seconds. Once I get a page loaded if I download something from that site it is still a fast download.
    Any ideas on what could have slowed loading web pages , but download speed still shows really fast?
    Your help is appreciated
    Cheers
    mrjazz

    If your download speeds are still fast, it is most likely the broswer that is slow in rendering the pages.
    Are you using Safari and if so, do you leave it open all the time? Safari is notorious for hogging RAM and CPU cycles and slowing to a crawl if you do not quit and restart it.

  • Web pages load slowly using Safari, Firefox, and Chrome.

    Web pages are loading slowly now on my mid-2008 iMac 2.66 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo. 
    Doesn't seem to matter if I use Safari v5.1.10, Firefox v29.0.1, or Chrome v34.0.1847.131. 
    Problem started about a week ago mostly with YouTube but now I have issues with almost all web pages loading slowly, including this one.

    Try resetting both your Intenet MODEM/Router by unplugging them, waiting 15 to 20 seconds then plugging them back in.

  • Why will only one site load but not display, yet links are available on the site?  OS10.8.5, Safari 6.1.4

    I am running OS 10.8.5 and Safari 6.1.4,  When I go to sierratradingpost.com, the page appears to load, but the page is blank.  When I pass the cursor over the page, it will change to the pointing finger indicating active links.  Yet, when I click on the link the new page loads, but is also blank.  This only happens on my Mac Air, it does not happen on my iTouch or iPad.  I have looked through all my settings when the page is loaded but can find nothing.  I have WOT, Ghostery and Ad bloc active.  Even when I turn all those off I still have the same problem. Everything was fine yesterday morning, but when I went to the site in the afternoon, the problem arose.  Any ideas? 

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.

  • What do i do if my internet is wep and i need it to be wpa2 because my ipod touch 4th gen connects to the internet but when i click on safari or itunes it says safari cannot open the page because its not connected to the internet

    what do i do if my internet is wep and i need it to be wpa2 because my ipod touch 4th gen connects to the internet but when i click on safari or itunes it says safari cannot open the page because its not connected to the internet. i have contacted apple support and they said to change from wep to wpa2 but when i change it to wpa2 and type in password and connect on my laptop it says the saved setting on this computer for the network do not match the require ments of the network

    My 2nd gen works fine with WPA2 and AES encryption.
    You may need to go back and start over.  Reset the router back to factory defaults, log on as the admin, set up security, DHCP, and make sure the IP address pool has enough IP addresses to lease to ALL of the computers/devices that will connect to that the router.

  • I recently upgraded to iOS 7.0.  When I open Safari to a blank page, a small "Settings" icon appears against the white background.  When I click on it, it opens  a link to a web page that is not among my other bookmarks.  How can I get rid of it?

  • WRT54GS - Web page loads slow or not at all

    My parents have two wireless laptops accessing their WRT54GS.  Both receive excellent signal strength.  Web pages load at normal speed for the first unit to access the internet on their network.  However, the web pages will take forever or not load at all for the second computer, despite the fact that the signal strength to the second computer remains excellent.  It does not matter which connects first and which is second; the problem still occurs. 
    I might mention that the computers and the router were purchased on Dec. 23, so everything should be current, with the exception of the 12/28/06 firmware release for the router.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated!

    hi...you can try different wireless settings on the router...
    channel -- 1,9 or 11
    under advanced wireless settings ,
    beacon interval  - 75 
    frag threshold    -  2304
    RTS                   -  2304
    if this does not make any difference then upgrading the firmware could help you....
