Safari logs me out very often since IOS5

Since i have installed IOS 5 it's just impossible to write a message on a phpbb site because of the bug of safari that keeps logging me out.
I tried to delete all cookies and history, i shutted down the ipad but it's still there...
I found a very similar problem on the forum about a cookie bug on safari (mac os version) but it's apparently not solved...
I had the same problem on the precedent version but it was less often. It's not casual anymore, i just can't continue like this.
I think it's a major bug on a device which like ipad is designed for friendly navigation on the internet. Using phpbb may be 40 % of my activities on it.
I'll just abandon the browser if i can't find a fix or a solution.
Any ideas ?

Try going to Settings > Safari, and look at the Accept Cookies box. Tap on it and make sure it is either set to "From Visited" or "Always". There seems to be a problem during the iOS upgrade process that causes this setting to get changed to not accept cookies, which will mean almost all sites where you have to log in will not work, or will work badly.

Safari logs me out of websites every day at midnight

A few days ago I was browsing the internet and Safari randomly closed and asked me to "reset" so that it would work. I clicked reset and didn't lose my bookmarks and nothing seemed to be different. At midnight that night Safari logged me out of the websites that I had been logged into, and has done this every night at midnight ever since. Is there any way to fix this? I'd love to have it back like it was.

Hi Sonny,
Can you explain in a bit more detail the logging out?
Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.

Delete button is getting grayed out very often in SMS

Delete button is getting grayed out very often in SMS section.. Screen also flicker at times...

Correct, it is not grayed out. A table uses a combination of renderers to display the data in each cell of the table. So there is no easy way to do this. You would need to provide custom renderers for each column of the table. You could easily "gray out" text cells, but what if a cell contains an image.
If all your cells are text based then you might be able to get away with overriding the prepareRenderer(...) method and simply change the foreground to a "gray" color. This posting should get you started:

Safari logs me out of webmail when I reply to email

Since upgrading to ios8.1.2, when I sign into Shaw webmail through Google on SafarI, it doesn't always remember my password, and sometimes a box comes up that I have more than one password, not true. Worst, when I try to type a reply to an email, Safari automatically logs me out.

Safari logs me out

My browser (Safari) regularly (every 30 minutes/hour) logs me out of all pages I'm logged into. This happens while I'm using my macbook pro, not when I close it. Any idea what can be happening? Thanks

then we have a few possibilities for a problem:
1. Your cookies file could be corrupted.
2. A file that Safari uses could be harboring some corrupted data, but the file(s) themselves aren't necessarily corrupt.
If you want to test the first possibility,
1. Quit Safari if it's running.
2. Go to ~/Library/Cookies and delete the cookies.plist file.
3. Restart Safari and test it on those sites you were having problems with. If that fixes the problem, then you don't need to do anything else.

Hitting the "x" to close safari logs me out of my account

I'm having this issue on my macbook pro with the most recent update of safari. I can browse safari for hours, but when i hit the "x" to close a window, it freezes and logs me out of my account. I've gotten used to it by being able to close safari from SAFARI> QUIT SAFARI in the menu bar at the top. I'd like to see if i can find the issue. it is getting old. if i have a pop up, i have to minimize it, instead of closing it. Any thoughts would be appreciated. I've searched around, but haven't heard or seen anything quite like this. It is not a timing issue; only when i hit the "x" to close a window.
Thanks

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
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.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

Safari logs me out of Gmail and refreshes the page.

I have Safari 5.1.4 on Mac OS Lion 10.7.3. I have a 2.52 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro. Throughout the day Safari will constantly reload Gmail and and log me out. Or like right now, I have Gmail open but it has the spinning wheel. Safari reloads my other tabs if I haven't been on them for a while, but it only bothers me with Gmail because I'll have to log back in or it'll do it in the middle of a Gchat.
Also, when I reset Safari, as in clear the cahce, history, etc. this window pops up: http://www.screencast.com/t/JBM4TViWq
I've change it to 32-bit but then Gmail is all white. And I'm not trying to open a movie like the warning says.
Is this happening to anyone else? Is there some setting I need to change? Any help would be greatly ap

I'd try updating to Safari 5.1.5. (It contains some fixes for issues with running in 32-bit mode, for example, and that seems to be in the vicinity of what you're getting here with 5.1.4.)

How do I stop Safari logging me out continually of websites?

For the last couple of months I and my husband are continually being logged out from websites such as ancestry.com.au on both our Macbook Pro and IPad.
We will be using the program and might click on save or the back option and it logs us out of the site we've been logged into. I've seen a lot of discussion online about this happening to large amounts of people but no real solution. I've tried resetting Safari and emptying the cache plus increasing our safari database to the maximum. If I don't do this on a regular basis it just stops signing in altogether.
Any ideas? My system is a Mac OS X Version 10.6.8.
Here's hoping.

Safari doesn't log you out, the web site may do that. I would contact the web administrator.

Adobe Reader 11 stops working very often since installation of latest 11.0.8 patch (on many company workstations)

Hi,
i am a system administrator of a company with about 350 desktops.
We updated our client workstations (W7PROx64) from Adobe Reader 11.0.7 to Adobe Reader 11.0.8 and now some users complain that the adobe reader stops working very often (Quote: "Every 5th PDF i open, the adobe reader crashes").
Before we distribute the update from 11.0.7 to 11.0.8 there were no such complains...
Is this a "well known" problem ?
Greetings from germany
Thomas

There is no support for the free Adobe products, unless you have a corporate support agreement.
Regarding your problem: does it go away if you disable Protected Mode [Edit Preferences | Security (Enhanced)]? If it does, you can use this registry script to disable it quickly on multiple workstations: https://files.acrobat.com/a/preview/82c09ef4-f32e-4d41-97f3-74d9431f9f20

Safari logging me out of Facebook

I am being constantly logged out of my Facebook, this is whenever I leave my Mac for a longer period of time, or when it goes into sleep, or I quit Safari.
I have checked "Remember me", and never had this problem before about 3-4 days ago. There were no Safari updates in that time that I know of...
I have tried deleting the Facebook cookie, and also emptying my cache to no avail.

This is driving me nuts too.. did anyone find out how to fix it?
I have Safari 5.1.7 and it's so annoying. This only just started happening to me last time I updated Safari.
My OS is also up to date.
I've deleted the prefs/library files associated with Safari and reset it.
Any answers?
Thanks

Safari logs me out of logged in web pages - not the same problem as other similar post - please read.

Before you crucify me please read the problem I've outlined below, because it's not the same issue other people are having. I did research the forums for the particular issue I'm having and it's not the same as what's already been posted. Please let me explain.
Here is my machine info.
iMac running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 on 2.5 GHZ Intel core.
Safari Version 5.1.7
I run two instances of Safari. I will have 1 safari browser window open on the left side of my screen with 7 tabs all on pages that require login. I run a second instance of Safari on the right side of my screen with only one tab open logged into 1 web page.
Here's what happens. Ocassionaly when switching the focus from one browser to the other all of my logged in web pages will refresh and I'll be logged out of all my logged in web pages, on both open browsers. There's never a certain amount of time that this happens, I've had it happen 3-4 hours into my work day and I've had it happen 10 minutes into my work day. I've also had this occure when I'm putting the focus from one browser window to the other and then I go to resize the width of the window I just put the focus on.
I'm thinking that there must be some setting or short cut "gesture" built into Safari that I'm triggering to make this happen, however I have looked at all the settings and can't seem to find anything that would cause this.
Any help or advice is apprecaited.

BDAqua - I have two Safari windows open - I guess in my semi technical mind that equated to two instances. But your probably right, just one instance of app with two windows open.
About two minutes after I posted my question, I was doing some work in one of my tabbed web pages, as I pressed the submit button to update the record on that page and as the page was refreshing I clicked my mouse on the second open Safari window to put the focus on that window, as soon as I put the focus on the second open browser I got logged out of all my logged in tabs in both windows.
The time it happened was sometime between 14:30 and 14:35
I'm looking at the Sytem Log. IN the filter I typed Safari and nothing came up from today in the log.
Just looking at "All Messages" between the hours of 1430 and 1435 their are no messages about safari, just the following.
1/10/13 2:32:22.000 PM kernel: IOSurface: buffer allocation size is zero

Safari logging me out / Forgets password

So recently I decided to delete my history, cache passwords etc on Safari for my iPod, which was stupid because ever since if leave Safari for a small period of time or take it away from multi tasking, then I always have to re enter my email and password for hotmail but this isn't the case for gmail, Facebook and everything else I use. Is there a solution for this? Can I make safari constantly remember the password?

You can try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Facebook/Safari logs me out every time I close my MacBook.

When I close my MacBook I am signed into Facebook with the 'remember me' box clicked. However, when I reopen my MacBook, Facebook keeps asking me to log in every time. This has only started happening in the past few weeks, not a clue why it has either.
Any help would be appreciated!
Cheers!

I just notice that Facebook requires me to log back in from scratch as well twice during a short period. Guess it's them causing it, might just be a temporary thing.

Safari logs me out of Facebook every time I click a link

This just started happening today. odd

HI,
From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences then select the Security tab. Click: Show Cookies
Remove all FB related cookies.
Relaunch Safari and try FB again.
If that didn't help, open Keychain Access (Applications/Utilities) Select Passwords on the left.
Delete your Facebook keychain.
Relaunch Safari. Navigate to Facebook, login with your user name and password. Click Yes when prompted.
