Safari doesn't open a link at once

Ever since installing the Tiger on my PowerBook G4, most hyperlinks to the pages other than that of Apple site do not open at once. They usually end up showing the new standard Safari page indicating page not found. (The usual jumping of Safari icon in the Dock doesn't take place either.) However the same link starts loading the page on pressing the return/enter key. How do I fix the bug?
I'm not sure if it's my impression alone, but Safari in general has become slower as well.

It doesn't work on my phone, but it opens on my iPad fine.
Looks like it's a FB issue, not Safari.   They probably don't have that page encoded for mobile.

  • Safari doesn't open Pop-up & Script Windows?!

    Why Safari doesn't open Pop-up & Script Windows?
    I always have to use other browsers like Firefox for opening them

    Can anyone help please?

    With Safari open, from the Menu Bar click Safari. Where says; Block Pop Up windows, Deselect that.
    Keep in mind pop up windows can contain malicious code.

  • FF 6.0 doesn't open pdf-links, after clicking on "open pdf" error message says file not supported or damaged. IE opens file all right. Please advice.

    Firefox 6.0 doesn't open pdf-links after clicking on "open pdf". I frequently need to do literature searches and I need to view pdf files in the browser. After clicking on the pdf - link of a file the main options are to open or download the pdf. Every time I try to open a pdf-file a blank page and an error message appears saying the file would not be supported or is damaged. IE, however, opens the file all right. I tried various changes in the security and cookie settings without success. Please advice.

    Hi SGckc,
    This document is almost certainly a dynamic XFA form. Unfortunately, our mobile Reader does not support displaying or filling such forms. The application that produces this form embeds this message into the document so that non-supportive viewers (like ours) will display this "error" page when the document opens. I do realize that this is confusing and I would like to add some additional detection to our Reader for this case. However, we've avoided doing this for fear of confusing users even further. Your feedback helps though. Hopefully we'll find a way to detect this case and present a better message to the user like: This form is not supported by the mobile version of the Adobe Reader. Please open and fill it on the non-mobile version of the Adobe Reader for Windows, Linux or Mac OSX.
    Thank you for contacting us!

  • Safari doesn't open after i updated it to 1.6.8

    Safari doesn't open after i updated it to 1.6.8

    Reinstall Safari 5.1.2
    Then restart your Mac.
    If that doesn't help, you may have a third party add on that was compatible with the prior version of Snow Leopard, but not 10.6.8.
    Troubleshooting help here >  Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
    And try Safari in another user account. If you can't open Safari there as well, that's an indication the startup disk may need repairing.
    Log back in to your admin account, launch Disk Utility. That's located in /Applications/Utilities
    Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
    Click: Verify Disk  (not Verify Disk Permissions)
    Help for repairing the disk if necessary here > Using Disk Utility to verify or repair disks

  • I recently had some repairs done to my ATT U-verse connection, and now my Safari doesn't open in a full screen.  How do I reset that to open in full screen?

    I recently had some repairs done to my ATT U-verse connection, and now my Safari doesn't open in a full screen.  How do I reset that to open in full screen?

    Mountain Lion is set up to close windows when you quit a program instead of saving them. To change this, put Safari in full-screen mode, move the cursor to the top, open Safari menu while holding Option key and close Safari from the menu.
    If you want to do it automatically with all programmes, open System Preferences > General, and deactivate "Close windows when quitting an application"

  • Safari doesn't open on my Ibook G4

    Hi Chuck,
    As suggested above, what does Grab do when you try to open it?
    If the Grab icon appears in the Dock then it "is" open. Grab is a funny little utility in that there is no "window" that opens when you open Grab. The top menu bar though, will change to the Grab menus. In these menus you can go to the Capture menu for what you are trying to do.
    On the other hand, if you are saying that the application just bounces in the Dock or does nothing or opens to immediately quit, this is another kettle of fish?
    Perhaps if you can post back with what actually happens when you try to open Grab we can try to get to the bottom of it.

    Hello John...
    You may have a Safari third party add on installed that was compatible with the previous version of Safari but not 5.1. Try troubleshooting > Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
    FYI... this is a user to user forum. If you can't resolve the issue, information for contacting AppleCare  here.

  • Safari doesn't open maximized from a link in email

    When I open Safari from a link in the email program I use (Eudora Pro), the webpage doesn't open maximized-fills only about half of the monitor screen. Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this problem. I did right-click on the Safari icon and changed the setting to open Safari maximized-still doesn't open it completely from a link.
