Safari hangs up, seems like it is looking for something, when it opens page

Hello,
I have tried everything, safari upon opening takes sometime to open a page, once that page is open, it is somewhat quick to open other pages within that page, but when going to different pages the same delay happens,
it looks like safari might be looking for an ip addy? I am using airport and have also tried everything as far as resetting, setting up new locations?

If Safari is getting very slow:
(Presumably you regularly empty your Safari cache and clear your History)
Adding Open 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.
You could also try these codes as well: 4.2.2.1 & 4.2.2.2
If you use a Router, make sure it has the latest firmware installed.
One reason for a slowness in page loading may be the 'DNS Pre-fetching' feature of Safari 5.x
This is described here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3408?viewlocale=en_US
If Safari seems to hang for ages:
If you have a lot of tabs open and/or a lot of pages running Flash, Safari can sometimes 'hang', requiring a restart of Safari. This can often be inconvenient, and as it is rarely Safari itself that is hanging but merely one of its plug-ins, usually Flash, there is a way using Terminal to restart the plug-ins (without restarting Safari and losing your tabs) by quitting the WebPluginHost process:
Open the Terminal from the Utilities folder in /Applications and type
killall -9 WebKitPluginHost
Note that this command kills all Safari plug-ins, not just Flash. All plug-ins should start back up when you reload the page.
Then go back to Safari and refresh any pages that were using the Flash plug-in. This also fixes the Beachball of Death. Try this whenever Safari gets slow or freezes. The latest versions of Flash 10.1 appear to have improved the situation somewhat, but haven't completed eliminated it.

  • Looking for something similar to Slideshow Pro...

    I'm looking for something that my clients can upload their photos to a page on their website via some sort of admin interface such as Slideshow Pro had.  They have shut down their site.  They were Flash based, although you could still view the slideshows on any Apple device.
    I don't care if it looks like the slideshows that they created.  I'm just looking to have something of a lightbox, but I need the client to be able to upload their own, and change their own photos.
    I would like the admin interface to be online, so they don't have to upload an app to one computer.  I don't build my sites using Wordpress, so a Wordpress plugin is not an option.
    Thanks in advance for any help!

    I went ahead and purchased it anyway (about $80 US for the pro version which gives you online admin)!  Just seemed pretty easy.  No database setup even!
    I put a basic test page here: http://willowweb.ca/testPhotos.php 
    The Web admin is really simple.  Not as robust as Slideshow pro, but then again, I would take about an hour to show someone how to use it, and then a few months later, they would ask me to come back and show them again.  Doesn't look like I'll have that problem this time!
    It does show up on an Apple device, so it's definitely not Flash based. 
    Still trying to figure out the tools a bit, but doesn't look like a huge learning curve.  I will play around with it, and let you know whether I give it my thumbs up! 

  • When I open Pages from the dock, the page comes up but immediately hangs up with the

    When I open Pages from the Dock,  the page comes up on the screen but immediately hangs up with the rainbow circle spinning.  I finally have to force quite to make it go away.  It does not ask me to choose a template.  This is sporadic, sometimes working, sometimes not.  What is going on?

    Helo,
    Did you try to delete Pages' preferences file(s) in the folder your-user-name/Library/Preferences ?
    There are one or more (depends on your OS X version) file like "com.apple.iWork.Pages.plist"
    You can also repair permissions with Disk Utility in the folder Applications/Utilities.
    Choose the hard drive were Pages is and click the button "Repair permissions".
    Or you can re-install Pages.
    Hope this will help.

    Hi Cereskit
    Thanks again for the message. I've done the updates and have the App Store on my desktop. I went into it and searched for imovie but couldn't find the basic imovie, which I presume is what I'd need for editing?, rather than imovie 11 for £10.49, which is for making trailers, it seems. Also, were you saying that imovie would be free?

  • Looking for examples of the Exchange Page

    Hey! Any Body??
    I am looking to display data like on the Exchange page with
    logo and links in the tables. Does any one know of where I can
    start looking for something like that? I like the layout of the
    Exchange page. If any of you know something please let me know.
    thanks.

    You can find several examples that will work with the DAQCard-1200 at zone.ni.com/libraries/.
    Then look under Data Acquisition. There are also examples that ship with

  • When I open pages, it immediately hangs up and I have to force quit.

    When I open pages from the dock,  the page comes up on my screen but immediately hangs up with the little revolving circle.  I have to force quit finally to get the page to go off my screen.  This is sporodic.  Sometimes it works and sometime it does not. 

    The Problem Report which I had was: "Pages quit unexpectedly while using the SFWordProcessing plugin".
    I'm using iWork '09 in OSX Lion 10.7.4
    Here are all the things I tried:
    Deleting preference files
    Deleting iWork Pages caches
    Restoring preferences from yesterday's version in Time Machine
    Finding the SFWordProcessing plugin in HD/Library/Application Support/iWork '09/Frameworks
    Restoring the SFWordProcessing plugin from yesterday's version in Time Machine
    Using Disk Utility to repair permissions (none needed)
    Using Disk Utility to verify the HD (no problems found)
    Scanning the HD for malware with ClamXav (none found)
    Showing package contents of Pages and restoring items from yesterday's versions in Time Machine
    Opening Pages (successfully) from another user account
    The problem occurred after trying to open (convert) a 125-page MSWord document. Pages appeared to hang but was just slow. After opening the file Pages did hang. I right-clicked on the Pages icon in the dock and, seeing 'Application not responding' selected 'Force Quit. Thereafter I had the problem with Pages hanging on opening. I then moved the MSWord document to another location while I discussed with the trusted colleague who'd e-mailed it to me what to do with it.
    Eventually, after trying all of the approaches above (mostly suggestions from Apple Community help pages) I somehow stumbled upon what was causing the problem and how to clear it...
    In Finder pull down on the 'Go' menu
    Select 'Go to Folder'
    Type in ~/Library/ which takes you to your user Library (a hidden folder)
    In my user Library I found a folder called 'Autosave Information'
    Delete anything in this folder associated with iWork Pages
    Voilá!

  • Looking for something in the iPad/iPhone Airport App

    Hi
    I have been waiting for the airport utility for iPad/iPhone to come as I frequently travel with just my iPad and Airport Express. However, I have been unable to configure it when away from home.
    So, Apple has released a utility but it appears to be the most important feature for being on the road, that is, the ability to switch connection sharing (so you can hook up to a hotel system).
    Is it that I can't find it or it doesn't allow you to do it. In the iPad app, I am looking for the ability to switch between bridge mode and the other two.
    Thanks,
    Andrew

    Tesserex, thanks for the comment . Can you point to where in the utility I cna figure it to
    Share a public IP address
    Distribute a range of IP addresses, or
    Be off in Bridge mode?
    Thanks,I can't work it out.

    The AirPort Utility App that is available with iOS 5 does pretty much everything that the Mac or PC versions do including controlling both the NAT & DHCP services to allow you reconfigure an AirPort as a bridge.

    How big do you believe an ATV is?  They are tiny compared to most devices.
    The ATV is the only AirPlay receiver, short of an actual AV receiver with AirPlay support, but those are MUCH larger.

    Poor old Photoshop® is forever being put down when it comes to layout work, but it is perfectly capable, and can output a high quality print PDF the printer will be perfectly happy with.  OK you don't have the text flow between columns bells and whistles of InDesign and [spit] Publisher, but if you have a $10/month Photoshop/Lightroom subscription, instead of the $50/month full subscription, don't think you can't do a perfectly good flyer or poster.

  • Looking for something that converts various file formtats to TIFF

    Hi everyone,
    I am currently working on a project where I am expected to convert numerous files of various formats into 1 multipage pdf and 1 multipage tiff.
    I've been messing around a lot with iText (which i liked a lot because of how it was free) and I see how it can very nicely convert a multipage TIFF to a multipage PDF.
    Hence, I am looking for something that can convert files of various formats (i.e. doc, txt, jpg, pdf) to a multipage tiff.
    Thank you very much.

    Uh-huh. So what on earth would possess you to ask that question on a forum devoted to Java sound?
    I hope that a mod. might notice this thread and move it to a more appropriate forum.
    And since I am here, the Java forum for TIFFs would be JAI. Try looking through some threads there, for tips.

  • Sometimes get error "looking for something on MobileMe?" after publishing via ftp server

    I published a website I created on iWeb via an ftp server.  Sometimes it works, but sometimes I get the error "Looking for something on MobileMe?"  My web host says all my settings are correct, so the problem is likely to be in iWeb.  How can I fix this?

    I use FatCow as both my domain registrar and my web host, a similar service to GoDaddy.  The FatCow tech support said all my settings were correct.  Here's a pic of the iWeb Site Publishing Settings page:
    When I try "Test Connection," it succeeds.
    I originally published using MobileMe, then switched to ftp using FatCow.  The ftp publishing worked at first, then I started getting the error message intermittently, now get it all the time.  The FatCow tech thought that something is likely to be imbedded in the code that is taking it to MobileMe.
    Thanks again for your help!

  • Since I upgraded my Ipad2 with IOS6, i keep getting kicked out of Safari after I am in the middle of looking for something and on Ebay it continually kicks me back to the first item if I click to see a picture, say after I am 150 items down.  Even CNN too

    Since I upgraded my Ipad2 to IOS6, I keep getting kicked out of Safari after I am in the middle of searching for something.  Also, Ebay kicks me back to first item if I click on an item, say number 153 or 642!  Very annoying.  Even CNN kicked me out back to Ipad home screen last night!  How do I make it stop???

    My question is this:
    What is the best way of getting the pictures out of the iPhoto Library? I
    Select the photos you want out and export them as JPGEs - kind = current for the current edited version - kind = original for the original
    f I get access to the original folders within the library by right-clicking any photo and then being able to browse inside the library, am I going to have any problems if I copy or move those original pictures directly to a folder outside of the iPhoto Library?
    Copying photos out will not be a problem if you make no errors - for me that is not a good bet - it is best to stay out of yoru iPhoto library
    Would it be better to export the pictures?
    Yes
    Does exporting using "current" under "Kind" give you the original more safely?
    No - it gives you the current version which may be the original if no changes have been made or will be the current edited version if edits ahve been made
    Also, any suggestions on how to best have photos OUTSIDE of an iPhoto library organized so that iPhoto can reference them, but your backup is also organized?
    In the iPhoto preferences un check the advanced preference to "copy imported items to the iPhoto library"
    HOWEVER - this is not recommended - it makes importing more complicated, deleting more complicated and makes replacing a hard drive or going to a new computer much more difficult - and it puts you totally in charge of your original photos - being sure that they are there and do not get moved
    I'd like to have my photos organized by date in the backup as well, so that I don't have to backup all my pictures every time I add new ones, just add the latest to the backup drive.
    Finally, any suggestions on what to do with pictures that you scan so that they appear by the date they were taken as opposed to the date they were scanned? Is there a way to modify the date of the photo info?
    Select the photos in iPhoto and use the batch change command under the photos menu - the tiem and date option

  • Mac server hangs every few days. where to look for cause?

    I have a Mac server that hangs every few days and requires a hard reboot.
    It is run headless so we have no screen feed back of what is happening when it hangs.
    It is possible that just the network communications fail. But it is in software because a reboot restores the situation everytime.
    I could use some advice on where to look for possible causes: which logs, or dumps that are produced by the system.
    Thanks

    These instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Launch the Console application.
    Step 1
    For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes.)
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Note the timestamps of the BOOT_TIME log messages, which refer to the times when the system was started. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time when you had the problem. Select the messages logged before the boot, during the time something abnormal was happening. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    For example, if the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down for three minutes before you forced a restart, post the messages timestamped within three minutes before the boot time, not after. Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract—not at the beginning.
    If there are long runs of repeated messages, please post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
    ☞ When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    ☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    Step 2
    In the Console window, select
              DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ System Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of reports. A crash report has a name that begins with the name of the crashed process and ends in ".crash". A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic". A shutdown stall report has a name that ends in ".shutdownstall". Select the most recent of each, if any. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot. It's possible that none of these reports exists.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
    ☞ If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash or panic, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    ☞ Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.
