Safari hangs and poor performance in MBPR (Mid 2012)

Safari hangs and poor performance in MBPR (Mid 2012)? OS X 10.10.2 is up to date

Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them. In that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
Back up all data before making any changes.
Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If not, do that now and see whether there's any change.
If your browser is Safari, then from the Safari menu bar, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. If the Downloads button (with the icon of a downward-pointing arrow) is showing in the toolbar, click it and then click Clear in the box that appears. The download history will be removed. Any change?
If you're running OS X 10.9 or later, select the Advanced tab in the Preferences window and uncheck the box marked
          Stop plug-ins to save power
Any change?
Quit and relaunch the browser. Any change?
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
If Parental Controls is active for any user, please turn it off and test. Any change?
If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
Follow the instructions in this support article. Any change?
Open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Photos, if it's checked. Any change?
Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?

  • Safari hangs and crashes

    I've owned a MPB for 13 months and for 13 months it's been nothing but headaches.
    I know that to other Mac users this sounds negative because Apple products are cool, but my experience with my MPB has been nothing but negative.
    I've written to the Cupertino office, I've written to the Apple store where I purchased this unit, and am currently waiting for an answer (been about ten days since i mailed out copies of problem logs and description of problems).
    One trip to genius bar = zero resolution.
    Two apple care calls = zero resolution.
    Countless inquiries on the forums = zero resolution.
    Safari hangs and crashes.
    Word will lock up really badly. The other day I had a doc opened, started a new doc, it took my MPB 17 seconds to start a new doc.
    XL will lock up though not as much (and I don't use it as much).
    I'm a blogger, so I use Safari and Word from morning to night.
    This morning no video (vimeo, youtube, other video types) would play on Safari.
    On safari some weird flickering of different color panes sometimes occurs. Sometimes I get some grey vertical bars across.
    When I go full-screen while watching Netflix the screen goes dark, I have to refresh the page, restart the movie.
    If anyone has a suggestion as to what to do, please help me.
    These problems have been present since day one. This was a unit which was an exchange. The first MPB I got from the Tysons Corner store in Virginia had a graphic card on the fritz, I returned it after 3 days.
    Can anyone understand my frustration?

    Hi
    I'm not using Tiger so I don't know the terminology used in OnyX's Tiger version. Anyway, the steps are in the Automation panel. I believe "maintenance scripts" is used in both versions. Not sure about the caches. Have a look at this post for explanations.
    If the above doesn't help, I suggest you start a new thread, as your issues may be different than the originator of this thread. Include a copy of the entire crash report (note: If the crash report says "hang", then OnyX is usually the remedy.) Otherwise, select "report" on the quit panel, then copy/paste the entire crash report to your post in the new thread.

  • Crashing and poor performance during playback of a large project.

    Hi,
    I've been a regular user of iMovie for about 3 years and have edited several 50GB+ projects of DV quality footage without too many major issues with lag or 'dropped frames'. I currently have a 80GB project that resides on a 95% full 320GB Firewire 400 external drive that has been getting very slow to open and near impossible to work with.
    Pair the bursting-at-the-seams external drive, with an overburdened 90% full internal drive - the poor performance wasn't to be unexpected. So I bought a 1TB Firewire 400 drive to free up some space on my Mac. My large iTunes library (150GB) was the main culprit and it was quickly moved onto the new drive.
    The iMovie project was then moved onto my Mac's movie folder - I figured that the project needs some "room" to work (not that I really understand how Macs use memory) and that having roughly 80GB free with 1.5GB RAM (which is more than used to have) would make everything just that much smoother.
    Wrong.
    The project opened in roughly the same amount of time - but when I tried to play back the timeline, it plays like rubbish and then after 10-15 secs the Mac goes into 'sleep' mode. The screen goes off, the fans dies down and the 'heartbeat' light goes on. A click of the mouse 'wakes' the Mac only to find that if i try again, I get the same result.
    I've probably got so many variables going on here that it's probably hard to suggest what the problem might be but all I could think of was repairing permissions (which I did and none needed it).
    Stuck on this. Anyone have any advice?

    I understand completely, having worked with a 100 GB project once. I found that getting a movie bloated up to that size was just more difficult with jerky playback.
    I do have a couple of suggestions for you.
    You may need more than that 80GB free space for this movie. Is there any reason you cannot move it to the 1TB drive? If you have only your iTunes on it, you should have about 800 GB free.
    If you still need to have the project on your computer's drive, set your computer to never sleep.
    How close to finishing editing are you with this movie? If you are nearly done except for adding audio clips, you can export (share) it as QuickTime Full Quality movie. The resultant quicktime version of your iMovie will be smaller because it will contain only the clips actually used in the movie, not all the saved whole clips that iMovie keeps as its nondestructive editing feature. The quicktime movie will be one continuous clip, incorporating all your edits and added audio. It CAN be further edited, but you cannot change text of titles already there, or change transitions or remove already added audios.
    I actually do this with nearly every iMovie. I create my movies by first importing videos, then adding still photos, then editing with titles, effects and transitions. I add audio last, and if it becomes too distorted in playback, I export the movie and then continue adding audio clips.
    My 100+ GB movie slimmed down to only 8 GB with this method. (The large size was due to having so many clips. The movie was from VHS footage of my son's little league all-star game, and the video had so many skipped segments that I had to split it into thousands of clips to remove the dropped ones. Very old VHS tape!).
    I haven't upgraded to QT 7.5.5, but I heard that the jerky playback issue is mostly resolved with this new upgrade. I am in mid-project with about 5 iMovies, so I will probably plod along with my work-around method, not wanting to upgrade in the middle of any of them.
    Hope this is helpful to you.

  • Safari hangs and Lion Crashes

    Hi,
    I was borwsing the web in my MacBook Pro using Safari 5.1. I was composing a email on Gmail when the colorful spinwheel appeared. I let the spinwheel to run for about 45 seconds before attempting a Force Quit. Since Safari did not get out of its spinwheel (hang), I then went to the Apple Menu and opened up the "Force Quit" menu, I selected Safari and proceeded to force quit the progam. This is where things got wierd, after force quitting Safari, the whole system became unresponsive, I was not able to make any selections on the Apple Menu. However the most bizzare part of the issue was that the cursor still moved but nothing was selectable on screen, so I decided to make a key combination (cmd+option+power button) to make a force restart (I don't like the forced restart method where the user presses the power button for more than 5 seconds, I am told that the key combination of forced restart allows the EFI to reset the whole system).
    Has anyone experienced such symptoms when using Safari?, Is this a common issue?
    Thanks for your time!

    Lion in it's current released form ( 10.7.1 ) has lots of strange glitches and Safari is a memory hogging performance killer. If you open Activity Monitor with Safari open adn browsing like you usually do, then you will notice two connected processes : Safari itself and "Safari webcontent" , these two can also be accompanied by the evil Flash plugin of course.
    "Webcontent" is new in v5.1 and is a sandboxing around any open website, a security "firewall" for the web - if a website has malware that wants to sneak via Safari into your Harddisk, then the webcontent process will forbid that.  Safari ( as all apps and the OS itself ) in Lion runs by default in 64bit usermode mode, making things even worse, because the App has unlimited access to the physically available RAM ( memory ), so if Safari goes crazy due to some websites, it can occupy every ressource in Mac OSX so bad that the rest of the OS becomes unresponsive. Because 64bit Browser will also need 64bit plugins, and as we all know that flash on its own is itself ressource intense, you might imagine what happens if such "webprocesses" have embedded flash movies in them ..
    So, momentary tragically this mix of 64bit computing and the security sandboxing model leads to all sort of issues, including memory leaks and hangs ( not only in Safari , but it is a number one source for that ) .
    You can limit the available memory, this cures some issues = run Safari in 32bit mode. This will also force the flash plugin to 32bit mode, making it more ressource friendly ( to some degree at least ) .
    Reveal Safari in your application folder, right click "get info" and checkmark "run in 32bit compatibility mode".
    To avoid having the flash plugin active all the time ( or to play videos in Quicktime ) , I recommend the safari extension "click to flash" ( free ) installable via safari's Settings Menu. Only movies that you want to see will then play ( after you click them, as the name implies ) - this limits memory usage of Safari, too.
    A befriended developer who has already the final version of 10.7.2 update swears that it cures virtually all existing Lion and Safari issues. It should be available on or before October 12 together with iCloud and iOS5 and the new iTunes . Apple reveled oct 12 as the introduction date for their new line of apps and iCloud, and because 10.7.2 integrates all these needed stuff for it to work, it must come out the very same day or even before. ( this is no "Speculation" which is "forbidden to discuss here" -- it's a simple matter of fact , watch the last keynote held by Apple CEO Cook where they introduce iphone4s - it has all the infos )
    So. only 2 days left maximum, then we all be happy I guess

  • Safari hangs and quits suddendly

    Dear all,
    since the latest SW update, Safari hangs several times a day. It simply stops loading any pages ( without any error ) and I need to restart my Mac to make it working again.
    I already verified and repaired the disc and its permissions but the problem keeps coming back.
    Today, for the first time it quitted suddendly ( find below the copy of the report ).
    Do you have any idea what I could check ?
    Thanks in advance fon any help you might be able to provide.
    Cheers,

  • Invalid block count and poor performance

    Hi - Can anyone help?
    Running an early 2011 13' MBP on ML. For a year - 18 months I've noticed poor performance at times, consistently slow boot (sometimes 5 minutes to usable), occasional lockups and spotlight often reindexes itself and slows the system (much more than my previous MBP), I can't see anything that triggers it. I'm also getting recurring errors in Disk Utility of 'Invalid block count', every time I'll repair the disk (booting into recovery), but after a month of use the error will reappear. About three months ago I erased and reinstalled ML, some of my data was moved over in Time Machine but I didn't restore from it. The erase and reinstall hasn't made any difference and I'm still seeing the same issues. Hard disk SMART status appears to be fine.
    Can anyone recommend any troubleshooting steps? I'm not sure what else to do, still under Applecare and was thinking maybe the HD isn't working correctly?
    Cheers!

    Performance.

  • Skype crashing and poor performance

    Hello!
    I have a Lumia625 with WP8.1. My problem is that Skype has a really poor performance on my phone. It crashes 6 times out of 10 on startup, and even if I manage to start it, the whole app is slow and laggy. Sometimes I can't even write a message it's so laggy. Video call is absolutely out of the question. It crashes my whole phone. I have no similar problems with other instant messaging apps nor with high-end games. There is something obviously using way more resource in the Skype app than it's supposed to. It's a simple chat program, why would it need so much resource?
    The problem seems to be originating from the lower (512 mb) RAM size of my phone model, because I experienced the same effect with poorly written apps, that don't keep in mind that there are 512 RAM devices, not only 1GB+ ones, and use too much resource.
    Please don't try to suggest to restart/reset the phone, and reinstall the app. Those are already behind me, and they did NOT help the problem. I'm not searching for temporary workarounds.
    Please find a solution for this problem, because it is super annoying, and I can't use Skype, which will eventually result in me leaving Skype.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    When it crashes on startup it goes like:
    I tap the skype tile
    The black screen with the "Loading....." appears (default WP loading screen). Usually this takes longer than it would normally take on any other app.
    For a blink of an eye the Skype gui appears, but it instantly crashes.
    If I can successfully start up the app, it just keeps lagging. I sart to write a message to a contact, and sometimes even the letters don't appear as I touch them, but they appear much later altogether. If I tap the send message button the whole gui freezes (seems like it freezes till the contact gets my message). Sometimes the lag get stronger, and sometimes it almost vanishes, but if I keep making inputs when the lag is strong, sometimes it crashes the whole app.
    When I first installed the app, everything was fine. But after a while this behavior appeared. I reinstalled the app, and it solved the problem temporarily, but after some time the problem re-appeared. I don't know if it's relevant, but there was a time when I couldn't make myself appear online all the time (when the app was not started). In that time I didn't experience the lags and crashes. Anyways, what I'm sure about is that the lags get worse with time. Idk if it's because of use of the app (caching?), or the updates the phone makes to itself (conflict?).
    I will try to reinstall Skype. Probably it will fix it for now. I hope the problem won't appear again.

  • Safari hangs and goes blank on my ipad

    when i go to any bookmark or type in a www it hangs for a few seconds then shows a blank page? tried rebooting and removing from tool bar, help please

    Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data (Clear Cache on iOS 4) and also 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.

  • Safari hangs and times out on pages with CGI scripts

    I don't know if this is a Safari problem or a system wide problem. I running OS 10.4.9 with Safari 2.0.4. When I try to load a page that begins with "http://cgi." it begins to load but hangs and eventually times out. Has anyone else run into this problem? I did a search of the forum but came back with no results.

  • Safari hangs and cannot be forced to quit...

    Mountain Lion 10.8.2
    Since the 6.0.2 update, I am finding that Safari hangs 4-5 times a day, and cannot be Forced to Quit. Doing a Force Quit only causes a hard crash and you need to reboot.
    Anyone else seeing this?

    Moving back to 6.0.1 did not resolve this issue.
    I am now investigating two possibilitites:
    1. There was a supplemental Mountain Lion update for 10.6.2. Since I only started with 10.6.3, someone recommended I install that update. I have.
    2. In the Energy system preferences, someone suggested that I turn off "Wake for Network Access". Since I have no other systems which would need to wake my MacMini, this seems like a good idea.
    My MacMini is starting up now a LOT faster (3-4x) after restarts since the Supplemental Update.  We will see if having Wake for Network Access makes any difference.

  • Safari hangs and hangs

    My home page is Aol.com. After that opens and it usually opens right away whenever I type in another url or click on a bookmark Safari 5 just hangs and eventually tells me that the page can't be opened or located or something but then if I hit the re load button it then loads and then hangs a little later. I've tried lots of things like emptying cache and updating flash to 10.1 and permissions etc. I hoped to find an answer here but haven't. I called apple and they couldn't figure it out either. Any idea? I tried going back to safari 4 but that started hanging too all of a sudden then that stopped and I re installed 5 again and now it's happening again. This is on my new 21.5" imac. I'm not putting this on my macbook till I solve this.

    (First, if yours is an Intel Mac, check that Safari is not running in Rosetta, which is enough to slow it to a crawl. If you are running Snow Leopard, try running Safari in 32 bit not 64 bit (some of your plug-ins may not work in 64 bit). Control click the Safari icon in the Applications folder, then click: Get Info In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle next to General so it faces down. Select 32 bit mode)
    Do you have enough RAM? Less than 1GB can cause slowness. Is your hard drive too full? Less than 15%, or 15GB, of free space can also cause slowness.
    If you use a router, does it have the latest firmware installed? Safari 5 introduced 'DNS Prefetching' (Safari looks up the addresses of links on webpages and can load those pages faster) which could strain some routers or modems producing a 'latency' in page loading. This was fixed in Safari 5.0.2, but you may see a benefit from getting a faster router or modem. You can read more about that here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3408?viewlocale=en_US
    Adding DNS codes to your Network Preferences, should give good results in terms of speed-up as well as added security:
    If you are using a single computer: Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu, and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' add the following two numbers:
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    (You can also enter them if you click on Advanced and then DNS)
    Sometimes reversing the order of the DNS numbers can be beneficial in cases where there is a long delay before web pages start to load, and then suddenly load at normal speed:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2296
    If your computer is part of a network: please refer to this page: http://www.opendns.com/start/bestpractices/#yournetwork and follow the advice given.
    (An explanation of why using Open DNS is both safe and a good idea can be read here: http://www.labnol.org/internet/tools/opendsn-what-is-opendns-why-required-2/2587 /
    Wikipedia also has an interesting article about Open DNS:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenDNS
    Whilst in System Preferences/Network you should also turn off 'IPv6' in your preference pane, as otherwise you may not get the full speed benefit (the DNS resolver will default to making SRV queries). If you want to know what IPv6 is:
    This is Apple's guidance on iPv6:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/8708.html
    Click on Apply Now and close the window.
    Restart Safari, and repair permissions.
    Also, third-party add-ons created for a previous version of Safari may cause problems:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3230?viewlocale=en_US
    If that didn't do it, then try this as well:
    Empty Safari's cache (from the Safari menu), then close Safari.
    Go to Home/Library/Safari and delete the following files:
    form values
    download.plist
    Then go to Home/Library/Preferences and delete
    com.apple.Safari.plist
    Repair permissions (in Disk Utility).
    Start up Safari again, and things should have improved.
    More useful information here:
    http://guides.macrumors.com/SpeedupSafari
    Less likely, but possible, is that the slowness is caused by a Trojan such as the one called 'DNSChanger' or 'OSZ.RSPlug', which can alter the DNS settings of your network connection. This particular Trojan can be inadvertently installed if you have come across certain Quicktime movies where got a window stating that you have to download and install a particular codec in order to see the video.
    If you have agreed to that installation, your system can be infected and your DNS settings altered, which results in your system using the wrong DNS servers, which can slow web surfing to a crawl.
    This can be fixed by downloading and running a freeware utility called DNSChanger Removal Tool which you can download from here:
    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/33696
    Once you have run that utility you have to re-boot your Mac, then reset Safari, and re-enter your DNS settings in System Preferences/Network.

  • Here's a fix for Safari hanging and taking down the system..

    There appears to be a serious bug in Mac OS X's lookupd which can pull the rug right out from under Mac OS X Tiger. While this bug could possibly be triggered in a number of different ways, there has been a recent rash of reports that have been tracked to some mainstream Web sites such as FoxNews.com using links to an adware site js.adsonar.com. This document describes a quick way out of the hang and a simple way to block links to js.adsonar.com from taking down Tiger again. While this doesn't fix the underlying lookupd bug itself, it prevents Mac OS X from hanging, while allowing you to continue using Web sites like FoxNews.com with full Java and JavaScript access enabled.
    The symptoms of this problem are as follows:
    • You're surfing the web and the page you are on fails to completely load.
    • No further pages will load in your browser.
    • You can switch to other applications that may already be running and save any open files.
    • You can no longer launch any additional applications, their icons will bounce in the dock for a while and then they will just stop bouncing.
    • You can no longer use any other Finder functions.
    • You can no longer use command-option-escape to force quit.
    • You can not log out, restart or shut down.
    Apparently these symptoms indicate that a low-level component of Mac OS X, lookupd, has hung. Since lookupd is used by many other parts of Mac OS X, it effectively hangs Mac OS X itself.
    If this sounds like a problem you are having, try the steps in the following link to fix it.

    Hi Bee,
    There is indeed "such a bug", though you may be fortunate enough to not be affected. Unfortunately MANY others are affected by this. I spent three days helping track this down (many of those 38 posts were while tracking it down in the Tiger discussions) and find a fix to this and thought that others might benefit by my efforts... By the way it's NOT a Safari bug, it happens in any browser, it's a "lookupd" bug which may be triggered by surfing to certain sites which contain links to "js.adsonar.com", which if you have JavaScript enabled can hang lookupd and take down your entire system... consider yourself lucky that it hasn't happened to you...
    Here is some background information if you don't believe me:
    Apple Discussions: "Fixes" for lookupd Problems, some via Java Updates
    Apple Discussions: System unresponsive within the last week
    MacFixit Discussions: Progressive Freeze and Network Access under Tiger
    MacFixIt Special Report
    MacFixit Follow-up: Another fix for system-wide freezes when Web browsing
    I only posted this fix to the specific threads where people were having Safari hang, incase it might help them. Forgive me for trying to help them... I thought that was the point of these boards and that was why they started threads about their issues... I'd be willing to bet that this fix will indeed fix many of their problems...
    I also posted one additional new topic here on the Safari board and one on the Tiger board for new readers looking for solutions to the same system hangs they may be getting while surfing.
    If this fix does indeed help any of you other readers, please post back here so that Bee can indeed see that I'm not just posting here to waste my time...

  • My solution for: Slow Installs and poor performance

    So up until today, most of anyting on XP or even vista 64 ultimate was taking a very long time to install or copy from one part of the drive to another. Startup would grow longer and game performance was dying and only once ever did reinstalling the OS do anything. No matter what I did, nothing would fix the problem.
    I ran multiple utilities (disk utility, disk warrior, tech tool deluxe, etc) but none said that there was a hardware problem. But this issue I was having (and I know some of you do) was definitely related to the computer. From my experience, I determined that there was no way this mac was perfect.
    So I scheduled a service and repair at my apple store (under warranty). When it was done a few days later, sure enough, I was told that even though the utilities we users can use on our end to diagnose problems didn't find any problems, the hard drive did not pass apple's detailed inspection and was replaced.
    In conclusion, I say that if you are having this problem, run disk utility and if you have the extra protection plan, download the Tech Tool Deluxe that apple provides on the support site. Disk utility may find some permission and disk issues but if Tech Tool doesnt find anything even on the surface scan, take it in to the apple store to have a Genius look at it. If it's not under warranty, it's up to you whether or not you want to spend that money. Overall, my computer both on Leopard and XP now runs just as it should.
    Hope that helps.

  • Safari Hangs and has to be restarted

    Safari will open, will navigate to a few sites and then just stops working. It needs a force quit, then does the same the next time it's opened.
    I've run a disk verification and repair. I've also deleted the flashplayer files (as recommended by some) - no measurable benefit from any of this.
