Safari not opening many webpages - just get 'blank' webpages

I added "index.html" at the end of the URL's and it worked but I'd like to know why I have to do this.
BTW, I couldn't log onto this site with Safari and finally had to use FireFox.
I know about emptying caches, deleting cookies but I shouldn't have to do it every couple of hours. Again, no such problems with FireFox.

Not really answered but it's moot point now.

I have tried everything but still cannot open FB i just get blank page

no matter what i do i can open FB i get just a blank page with the fb headings can see the normal page with the newsfeeds etc

I restarted in safe mode. I opened the firefox and it did not show not responding. However I was unable to connect to the internet in safe mode, so I don't know if it is a system driver yet or not. How do I start in safe mode and be able to connect to my wireless router? If it does turn out to be a system driver or something, how do I figure out which one it is? Thanks so much for helping me!!!

Download the Safari 7.0.3 installer package and run it. You can download it in another web browser, if you have one, or on another computer (not an iOS device, but not necessarily a Mac) and transfer it to the affected machine via the network or an external storage device. Otherwise, if you have mail access, open the email notification of this comment, then see below.
Triple-click the word "curl" in the line below on this page to select the whole line:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing the key combination command-V. You may have to press the return key after pasting.
The Safari installer package will be downloaded to the Desktop. The Terminal window shows the progress of the download. When it's complete, quit Terminal and open the package.

AI not opening files. Just get spinning beach ball.

Installed CS6 onto a MPB running 10.8.3. I did the install on friday, everything ran fine. We to work on this morning and when ever I try to open files I get the spinning beach ball. I restarted computer a couple times and tried a variety of files. Still not working.

What files? Where are they stored? What does their artwork contain? AI is quite particular about that stuff and isn't enamored with network drives or specific external drives just liek there's a million otehr potential causes like font problems, printer setups and what have you...

I have stopped too many scripts in Firefox and I can't open any websites in Firefox anymore. I just get blank pages. What do I do now?

3 websites gave me this message:- "A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete." I chose to stop the script each time. However I have stopped too many scripts in Firefox and I can't open any website in Firefox anymore. I just get blank pages. What do I do now?

Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox and any leftover program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps one by one:
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu) and confirm all upcoming messages.
#Now, uninstall Firefox by following the steps mentioned in the [[Uninstall Firefox from your computer#w_uninstall-firefox|Uninstall Firefox]] article.
'''IMPORTANT:''' On Windows, the uninstaller has the option to remove your personal data and settings. Make sure that you do '''not''' check this option; otherwise all of your bookmarks, passwords, extensions, user customizations and other Firefox [[Profiles|user profile data]] will be removed from your computer.
After uninstalling Firefox on Windows, delete the "Mozilla Firefox" program folder, located by default in one of these locations:
* '''(On 32-bit Windows)''' ''C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox''
* '''(On 64-bit Windows)''' ''C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox''
#Go to the Windows Start menu and click on "Computer".
#In the Explorer window that opens, double click Local Disk (C:) to open the C:\ drive.
#Find the "Program Files (x86)" folder or "Program Files" folder.
#* On 32-bit Windows, double-click the '''Program Files''' folder to open it.
#* On 64-bit Windows, you will see a "Program Files (x86)" folder AND a "Program Files" folder. Open the '''Program Files (x86)''' folder.
#Look for a '''Mozilla Firefox''' folder. If you find one, right-click it and select ''Delete'' and confirm that you want to move the folder to the Recycle Bin.
Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
#Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
#Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!

I have just downloaded an iBook but it is not opening how do I get a refund

I have just downloaded an iBook but it is not opening how do I get a refund

Have you tried deleting it from the iBooks app and redownloading it via the Purchased link in the ibookstore in the iBooks app ? Re-downloading.
If you have the same problem after re-downloading it then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that book and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

Drag the Safari icon straight up and off the Dock so it goes, "poof" ...
Now click and hold the Safari app in the Applications folder and drag that to the Dock.
See if you can open a webpage in Safari.

Safari not open 10.3.9

Safari not open in 10.3.9 but internet explorer does.
opens just fine in 10.3.8. connects to any site without hesitation. As soon as I download and install 10.3.9 the problem shows up.
weither upgrade or clean install 10.4 in 10.4.3 and 10.4.5 safari opens as do other browsers but all say not connected to internet. Sometimes can get connected by hitting return a lot to get a page request to go through.
What can I do to make it work.
Have been fighting with system 10 since first started with 10.2. Paying for 10.3 and now 10.4. I first tried using 10 on a G3 no luck. Next an imac 333Mhz and even partitioned. Then to G4. Tried 10.3 on the imac and the G4. Never have been able to fully install any version of OSX on imac under any conditions.I AM NOT PLEASED

Hi Again macyue!

"...there's also a chance that your failed installation of Tiger and return to Panther has resulted in other problems."
I suspect that as well, that is why I asked:
"What procedure did you use to replace the Safari application?
And what procedure did you use to reinstall Panther 10.3.x, after the failed upgrade?"
I also suspect that if, after the failed Tiger 10.4.x upgrade, you performed an Archive & Install of Panther 10.3.x, and chose to "preserve your user and network settings", there could be some corruption of the system.
See this KB Article for info How to reinstall a prior version
Quoted from there:
"Important: You should only perform an Archive and Install installation over the same major version of Mac OS X. For example, if your Mac OS X Install disc has Mac OS X 10.3, then you should only perform an Archive and Install over version 10.3 through 10.3.9. "Downgrading" your operating system version to an earlier major version may lead to issues. For example, downgrading Mac OS X 10.4 or later by performing an Archive and Install installation with Mac OS X 10.3.9 or earlier Install discs could lead to:..."
Could you please also post, how the Tiger 10.4.x upgrade failed?
And review the KB Articles linked to below.

10.5.4 fix safari not opening?

For those of you, like me, whohave had safari not open after the 10.5.3 update, I was wondering if 10.5.4 fixed this. I have not had a chance to try it yet. When I try to install the latest safari update it tell me I need 10.5.2 or higher and I have 10.5.3. If this new leopard update fixes safari please post or post a fix for it using 10.5.4, because I have given up on 10.5.3

Was the update to 10.5.4 only for Safari or was it a systemwide update that just happened to affect Safari?
It's a system wide update that included some fixes for Safari.
Add-on programs and some plugins are now invalid with this most recent version
Your best bet is to wait for the developers of your extensions to update them. It usually only takes a few days. As many people here have found out, attempting to reinstall Safari can cause many problems.

Lightroom 5.6 would not open. I only get a flash picture then I get an error message. See below message: [Window Title] Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 64-bit [Main Instruction] Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 64-bit does not work more [Content] there was a problem making the program no longer work properly. The program is closed and there is a notification if a solution is available.

I may have just solved my own problem. Right after posting this I googled bezel lightroom and found this: Flickr: Discussing The word 'bezel' appears in the taskbar. in Adobe Lightroom
I changed the setting in the view menu and now everything appears to be working fine. I cannot explain why it stopped working before because I hadn't made any previous changes to the view options.
Still am curious about the memory usage, though.
