SAFARI KEEPING JUMPING PAGES

Safari seems to jump to random webpages not related to the links I click

So you're sitting there with Safari open, not touching the trackpad or the keyboard, and a new page loads, unrelated to the previous one?

Safari keep open page from cache, though the origin page has been available

This is weird. Safari keep opening a site with this error message:
501 Method Not Implemented
Method Not Implemented
GET to /indexfr.php not supported.
But when i'm opening the site with Firefox or Opera, the website displayed correctly. Even when i'm using curl/wget from Terminal, all html codes are displayed correctly. I know that about 1 month ago, all browser displayed the same (firefox, safari, opera, curl) 501 method not implemented. But after the remote site has been recovered, Firefox can correctly display the web page, while safari can't. It seemed that safari keep displaying the cached page.
I've tried empty the cache (from menu) many times, tried to push SHIFTCOMMANDR, tried to delete cache folder (~/Library/Cache/Safari), and also i've upgraded my safari to Safari 3 beta. All didn't work.
IMHO, when the remote site responded with 501 HTTP response, safari keep caching 'the http response', and i don't know how to delete it. This is very annoying since i have to switch to Firefox to browse that only site.
FYI: The remote site has more than one IP addresses, maybe i got this response from one of them. So, is it possible that safari keep caching the IP Address? and not to use round-robin behaviour? But i don't think so, because when i edited /etc/hosts to manually assign that site to one of the IP address, Safari still displayed 501 error message.
So, my main question is, how to completely start over Safari just like if we buy a new computer?
Sorry for my bad english
Powerbook G4 1.3 12' Mac OS X (10.4.10)

Ok, i've tried to put a question mark at the end of the url, but still got 501 Method not implemented.
I'm sure that my ISP doesn't cache web pages. Because when i tried with curl or wget (from command line), i got full html code. It is ok to browse the site with Firefox and Opera. And when i set my http proxy to our ISP's proxy, i can browse that site !!!
Here i provide some screenshots, please click:
Firefox OK, Safari Don't
Safari Don't ok. Proxy off. and my ISP doesn't do transparent caching.
Safari Don't ok. curl is fine!

I use BT Yahoo! but when I try and navigate to email from the home page it keeps jumping between 'connected and waiting for login' and never loads up.

My internet service provider is BT in the UK. The home page is www.btinternet.com. After I've logged on, the home page displays fine - I can see the summary of my emails in one of the windows on the home page. The problem comes when I click on the mail application. The page then tries to load the email application. However, it never actually loads, it keeps jumping between connected and waiting for login. It never achieves it so I just have to click the 'back' button to get to the home page. I use chrome and ie but neither has this problem.

I retraced my steps to how i got the Google app:
App Store icon on Home Screen > Search, at bottom > entered Google
The first Google App on the screen appears:
Google logo small g in blue square: Google Search; Open (because it is already installed). Below that is a picture of the iPod with the usual Google Search screen. I have never inserted a link into a discussion group so i hope you can open this.

Does this bring us any closer?

Help! My Mouse pad is not working properly. The arrow cannot be controlled, it just keeps jumping all over the page. How can I stop this?

Help! My Mouse pad is not working properly. The arrow cannot be controlled, it just keeps jumping all over the page. How can I stop this?

There are several possible causes for this issue. Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried until it's resolved. Some may not apply in your case.
1. Follow the instructions in this support article, and also this one, if applicable. A damaged or defective AC adapter could be the cause, even if it's the right kind.
2. Press down all four corners of the trackpad at once and release. If there's any effect, it's likely to be temporary, and in that case the unit must be serviced or replaced.
3. Open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and delete all pointing devices other than the trackpad, if applicable. Disconnect any USB pointing devices. By a "pointing device," I mean a peripheral that moves the cursor, such as a trackpad, mouse, trackball, or graphics tablet. A plain keyboard is not a pointing device.
4. Start up in safe mode and test, preferably without launching any third-party applications. If you don't have the problem in safe mode, but it comes back when you restart as usual, stop here and post your results. Do the same if you can't start in safe mode. If there was no difference in safe mode, go on to the next step.
5. Reset the System Management Controller.
6. If you're using a Bluetooth trackpad, investigate potential sources of interference, including USB 3 devices.
7. A swollen battery in a portable computer can impinge on the trackpad from below and cause erratic behavior. If you have trouble clicking the trackpad, this is likely the reason. The battery must be replaced without delay.
8. There's a report that a (possibly defective) Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter can cause the built-in trackpad of a MacBook to behave erratically. If you're using such an adapter, disconnect it and test.
9. There's also a report of erratic cursor movements caused by an external display that was connected but not turned on.
10. If none of the above applies, or if you have another reason to think that your computer is being remotely controlled, remove it from the network by turning off Wi-Fi (or your Wi-Fi access point), disconnecting from a Bluetooth network link, and unplugging the Ethernet cable or USB modem, whichever is applicable. If the cursor movements stop at once, you should suspect an intrusion.
11. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine and/or external trackpad tested.

My magic mouse keeps jumping all over the page

Hi, my magic mouse keeps jumping all over the page and random apps keep appearing on my screen when I'm in facebook and it keeps sliding onto my dashboard screen.

Thanks so much for replying Barry. Did what you said but took me 6 attempts to be able to reply to you so unfortunately did not work. Have to wait over a week to get into Apple store so I guess I've just got to wait. This is my second magic mouse and its driving me crazy. Touch pad also playing up but thanks for the advice and have a good day.

Safari keeps opening old pages

Safari keeps opeing old pages even though I have closed them. It seems like I have several versions of safari open, but I don't think I do. I just did the latest software update and the problem continues.

Cdf15,
You can empty the caches in Safari by pressing Option+Command+E keys. This will likely stop the behavior.
You might have to remove Safari plist files from User Library (might be hidden hold down option key under Finder window Go Menu>Library>Preferences>com.apple.Safari.plist.
Place plist on desktop or in Trash without emptying trash, then reopen Safari. This will recreate a new plist.
Finally you can "Reset Safari" which will remove various Safari settings. "Reset SafarI" is available under the "Safari" Menu…
Hope this helps, Greg

Web page keeps jumping to top when scrolling down.

When I scroll down a web page on my Macbook Air with 2 fingers, it keeps jumping up to the top again. This started yesterday, did not happen before.
Also, a rectangle of various sizes has started to appear on the page and this is most annoying.
Any help to rectify this would be appreciated.

Hi ottodv,
I was not able to reproduce this issue on my Flame device running v2.1.
This may be an issue specific to Geeksphone's build of Firefox OS. Are you able to reproduce this issue with other versions of Firefox OS?

Trouble with safari. Impossible to keep starting page

Since few days, I can't keep the starting page.When opening Safari, the start page is Apple web site in France: I tried to save my favorite start page but Apple in France keeps going

Might be corrupted Safari preferences ...
Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
Click Go then move the com.apple.Safari.plist file to the trash.
Quit Safari if it's open then relaunch. Go to Safari > Preferences > General and reset your homepage.
If that doesn't help, press Command + Option + E on your keyboard to empty the Safari cache. Quit and relaunch Safari and reset your homepage.

Safari keeps crashing when loading large data on web pages

I have owned my iPad 3 for more than a year now and I have never encountered this problem but ever since I have updated to the latest iOS version(7.1.1), my safari keeps crashing on my community site where threads have maybe over a 100 comments in them.
Now whenever I open a thread page on Safari, it loads for a few seconds then crashes, to make things worse for me is one in a while when it crashes, it reboots my iPad. I have seen several similar questions asked by other people regarding safari crashing when loading large amounts of data and got help saying that there's something wrong with the CSS. or something but I never got any idea on how to resolve this bug.
Can anyone tell me how do I prevent my Safari from crashing everytime I open a thread? Any solutions? Because I am getting really ******.
(Ps: I have already tried other browsing apps such as Google Search and Chrome, they still crash. I even tried letting it load half-way and then stopping it but it isn't going well.)

I have restored my iOS devices a number of times in order to resolve issues and it has gone very smoothly every time. I am not going to lie, it takes a fair amount of time to backup, restore the iOS and then restore from the backup, but it could very well resolve the issue.
On the other hand, it may not help at all. Restoring the software is a standard troubleshooting measure And that is why it is recommended when other suggestions aren't working. But before you restore, there are a couple of other things that you could try,
Reset all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings. You will not lose any data when you do this, but it does take some time to enter all of the device settings again, so be aware of that.
Another thing to try is to erase the device and start over. This is different than restoring to factory settings. Reads rhis for more information.

I keep getting a message "safari cannot open page [page name with header information] because you are not connected to the internet.

I keep getting a message "safari cannot open page [page name with header information] because you are not connected to the internet. Then I check CNN for a time stamp, and I am connected to the internet. I have reset everything suggested in other posts, ensured any other device that could be hogging bandwidth is off, the router is reset, the iPad is reset. The other devices are not having this problem, and it happens on both places I use the iPad, the university library, (getting a second degree after a change in a long time career and at home. Any insight into this issue would be appreciated.

Saing yu tried everthing provides little information to us. We do not know what you tied.
Have you tried:
- Resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Powering off and then back on your router- Resetting network setting: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

Can i keep 1 page open in safari and not have any one close it

Ok so i need to keep a page open in safari for a work thing but it needs to stay open all the time and cannot be closed.
i have a macbook air and i need to ask if there is any program i can use to do that?
kind regards,
Steve

Good morning Steve,
It sounds as if you need to keep other people from making changes to your MacBook Air when you are away from it. One way to do this would be to allow the computer to go to sleep after a short period of inactivity, and to require a password to wake it. See this article for how to do this -
OS X Yosemite: Require a password after waking your Mac
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Brett L

Franky

Ok... use Open DNS to avoid redirects.
Use OpenDNS for better speed and more security and it's free.
Open System Preferences / Preferences then select the Network tab. Click the Advanced tab then click the DNS tab.
Enter these numbers exactly as you see them here.
Click +
208.67.222.222
Click +
208.67.220.220
Then click OK.

Safari's Google page not working

I opened Google in Safari on my iPhone 4 last night, and the page won't load. It keeps jumping around, acting like it's loading and reloading over and over. Never stabilizes. Still at it this morning. Other web pages I try work fine. And the Google app works fine. But Google in Safari is nuts. Any ideas about what I can try?

Am not logged into Google. Just tried clearing Safari history, however, to no avail. Am using Google app instead (for now), but will probably wander into local Apple store and let someone from the Genius bar take a look...
Thanks for the suggestions so far, folks!
