Safari Freezes after turning Privaate Browsing off
When I go to settings and turn my private browsing off, most the time I go back to Safari and it freezes or crashes. This happens 95% of the time. How can I fix this? Is this a known bug?
Try terminating and restarting Safari:
1. Press the Home button
2. Double click the Home button to bring up the "Recent Apps" tray.
3. Touch and hold on the Safari icon in the "Recent Apps" tray until a "-" appears.
4. Touch the "-" to terminate Safari.
5. Restart Safari and see if the problem is solved.
If that does not work try restarting and 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"

You turn private browsing off on the Safari page. Tap the + sign in the upper right corner, then tap private in the lower left corner. You know you're in private when the top of the screen is dark.

When I try to open my Yahoo mail in safari, I get a message which states:" In order to use Yahoo mail, please turn Private Browsing off. Please go to Settings>Safari>Private Browsing, and turn off" The problem is, my ipad does not a Private Browsing switchat this location.
With iOS 7 on the iPad, you turn Private Browsing on and off by tapping the URL field. The screen that opens up has your bookmarks on it. In the bottom left corner is a hot button marked 'PRIVATE'. Tap on the word 'PRIVATE' to turn private browsing on or off. Yeah, there aren't any instructions anywhere that I can find to do this, and if you follow Yahoo's instructions, they don't work. This doesn't happen with the previous Apple OS, and you can restore your iPad to the older OS.

If you are using Safari then try clearing its cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History)
If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. -
After I updated my iphone 4 to ios 6.1.3 I can no longer connect to my bluetooth, plantronics model M25. I tried reset all settings after turning on and off also submitted diagnostic. Do I have to buy yet another bluetooth set?
Thank you wjsten for your soon reply. Unfortunately on these days I'm in a country that Apple don't have any retail store here and for sake of time I prefer to fix it myself to DHL it to the nearest country to use its warranty. Do you have any idea how can I fix it? Do you think it's a software issue?

Why is safari freezing after the mavericks upgrade?
My safari keeps freezing after upgrading to Mavericks yesterday. Everytime I try to go back using 'two-finger swipe', the page freezes and I can't use the cursor to go up or down, select any links on the page etc. Anyone else experiencing any issues like this? If so, what did you do to fix it?
UPDATE to my Oct 31 post:
Within hours of my original post, I walked out of my office and dropped my macbook pro onto the parking lot asphalt. When I checked it, the screen wouldn't come on. (Maybe I shouldn't have complained about Mavericks!)
I ended up traveling 120 miles to an Apple store, where they not only repaired my screen for free, but looked at why it was running slow under Mavericks. They pointed out that I was running Sophos anti-virus for Mac and that it was no longer compatible with Mavericks. With my consent, they took it off and assured me there is no need for anti-virus software at all. I now have all my original speed and response back.
My MBP was a few months out of warranty, so I am very impressed that Apple fixed it without charging me anything, and then went on to make suggestions about how to improve its performance. -
NB200-10Z - Freezes after turning on
Hi, I've used my NB200-10z for 6 months without any problems.
But today I couldn't turn it on right away. I have to turn on and off power button several times to get it working. The battery is charged and there is power supply.
After I press turn on button, the cooler swiches on, the HDD indicator is green and the picture "Toshiba Leading Innovation" appears. Then the HDD indicator turns down and the picture freezes. And then nothing happends. The notebook doesn't respond on the "F2" or "F12" keys. I turn it off and try to turn it again. After several times the OS starts and the notebook works perfectly.
This sutiation repeated again - I have to turn on and off power button several times to get it working.
Please, help me, what should I do that the notebook starts properly?Hi
I am having the same kind problem, even worse!
I bought my NB200 Aug 2009, it has been working very well for me till about 2 weeks ago.
One day, I turned it off normally, second day morning, I tried to trun on, I only see power light, plugin light, battery charging light up., the HDD light flashed once for maybe 2-3 seconds, then fade away. And the screan remains blank all the way.
I tried remove battery, unplug, wait up to 3 hours, put everything back, it still not starting up.
Also I tried with different RAM, but result remains the same.
And the situation getting worse and worse. About 2 weeks ago, when it first started, after about 10 tries, I could get it start. This morning I had to try over an hour, and finally got lucky once.
So, anyone is having the same problem? Any suggestions? -
Time Machine cannot find Time Capsule after turning auto backups off
2010 macbook 7,1 OSX 10.6.8. Brand new rev.4 Time Capsule 2TB (MD032LL/A) just bought yesterday.
Everything set up just fine and wireless is working. Backups are working.
Issue is that as soon as I turn the Time Machine slider to Off (I can turn it back to On at this point, doesn't matter once it's been in the Off position) in TIme Machine preferences, then try and Enter Time Machine or do a backup, it cannot find the Time Capsule (says cannot find backup volume or such). I have to reselect the drive even though it's icon is showing right on the preferences screen. A reboot will enable it to find the Time Capsule without my input.
If I leave Time Machine turned on, the backups run fine and I can enter the Time Machine. It is turning off Time Machine that triggers the issue.
Tried the following:
-Rebooted Time Capsule
-Made sure Time Capsule name is less than 27 characters (it is 19)
-Firewall is off
-Filevaullt is off
-Booted into Safe Mode
-Repaired permissions
-Trashed TIme Machine plist
-Updated OSX
At this point I called Applecare and they had me send them a capture of my TIme Machine data and will get back to me Monday.
Oddly, my 10.5.8 iMac G5 2ghz is working fine with Time Machine and does not have this issue. I can turn Time Machine off and on all I want and it can find the Time Capsule with no problem.
Thanks for any help.Apple is still working on the issue but I have now noticed that I cannot VNC into my work PC anymore. I get a "Could not connect to server, connection refused:5900"
I am using Chicken of the VNC and it worked fine until I got the Time Capsule. I know that 5900 is the port used for something and this sounds like it is related to the Time Capsule.
I can't help but think this is also related to the "Cannot find backup disk" message from Time Machine. This all sounds like the Time Capsule goofed up the works here.
Also, I now have tons of reports in the console of it not being able to count items in a file at system/library/StartupItems. That folder is NOT there. Which is why I assume the errors. I have seen a few other reports and people are just restoring the file from Time Machine or making it via command line with admin. When I go back far enough in Time Machine, the file IS there but has nothing in it.
I asked Apple about that too and they checked a 10.6.8 computer and it had the file so not sure what is up there. Not sure if it was 10.6.8 update or the bunch of iTunes, etc that I did after that.
Have not restored that file yet, will wait to see what they say about the Time Capsule mess.
Any ideas on restoring my VNC connection? -
Safari freezes after pop survey... help
Just a quick FyI about my computer - I have Yosemite 10.10, 2.5 GHZ, 8 GB memory 1 T storage . When opening an e-mail from Apple bee's for a coupon, a pop up came on about taking a 30 sec. survey about apple bee's. I did it, then it morphed into "you have a virus on your PC" and the small grey box with the Safari symbol popped up saying to call this number right away for help getting the virus off my computer. Everything was frozen, but I went down to the dash bar and was able to "quit" out of Safari. When going on the bank website this morning, same thing, 30 second survey about the bank and the pop up about your PC being infected and everything froze. I was again able to quit Safari and reopen into my bank site again. What do you think was going on? I have "MacKeeper" and went into that and it scanned and said all was "Excellent"! I guess if people can get into all the stores and Sony, I guess they can breech my computer too.
Force Quit .
Press command + option + esc keys together at the same time. Wait.
When Force Quit window appears, select Safari if not already.

Afetr visiting approx 5 sites Safari freezes. I thewn toggle the wifi button in settings or some time carry out a reboot. Safari then works OK for another 5 or so sites and freezes again. I am working close by the router so signal strength is not a problem. What can I do to fix this problem
I experienced this problem occasionally in the past. What I would do is quit Safari like I describe below.
Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app.
I then just started Safari again and it seemed to work correctly.
After the update to iOS 7.1 however, this problem has disappeared from my iPad.
