Safari not working on iPhone 5?

For some reason, Safari on my iPhone 5 (running iOS 7) no longer works. Whenever I tap the icon to open up the app, it takes me to a blank webpage in which I can't do anything other than go back to the home screen. If I don't return to the home screen, it automatically takes me back in about 10-15 seconds. I've tried restarting my iPhone, clearing my history, cookies, and cache, and closing the app down when it's running in the background, but it hasn't changed anything. The only other thing I can think of doing is backing up my iPhone, restoring it to the factory settings, and reloadings my backup onto it. Any other suggestions?

Hi ..
Tap Settings > Safari then tap to clear History, Cookies, & Data then restartyour iPhone to test.
If that doesn't help, reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    its safari not working and it is not showing drive in my computer.

    iPhones are sold in carrier-locked and unlocked versions. If the phone has a carrier lock on it, you must contact the carrier to have it removed (you probably need to bring the phone to the carrier for the process). If you don't know the carrier, you won't be able to get it unlocked. US carriers will not remove the carrier lock and it cannot be removed.
    How is Safari behaving that makes you say that Safari is not working? The lock status of the phone won't affect Safari, except that if the phone is locked and you aren't using the carrier (and SIM provided by the carrier) to which it is locked, then you can't use the phone or 3G service, only Wi-Fi.
    The iPhone should not appear as a drive on your computer, so there's no error there.

  • Hand off not working on iPhone 5

    hand off not working between iPhone and iPad Air.
    Any suggestion. both using same iCloud ID's
    thanks

    Hi there SZkiyani,
    You may need to verify that Bluetooth is enabled on the devices as well. Take a look at the aritlce below for more information. 
    Connect your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch using Continuity
    Use Handoff with Apple apps such as Mail, Safari, Pages, Numbers, Keynote, Maps, Messages, Reminders, Calendar, Contacts. You can also use Handoff with some third-party apps. Start a document, email, or message on one device and pick up where you left off on another device.
    To use Handoff:
    On both devices, you'll need to turn on Bluetooth and sign in to the same iCloud account.
    Use one of the apps listed above on one of your devices.

  • Voicemail notifications not working for iphone 4s

    voicemail notifications not working for iphone 4s

    I had the same problem and after a lot of research here and on Verizon I finally discovered that it was an app named Onavo Extend that was preventing my voicemail from working. Other people have had success resetting their phone or network settings, disabling and reenabling SIRI, or deleting the Neilsen app (which I didn't have)  but those options didn't work for me. A lot of mods have claimed that this is not an Apple problem but if it is caused by an app that Apple allows to be sold in their app store, then it is an Apple problem, not a carrier problem. Of course, sometimes its just an ID 10 T problem.

  • Appletv remote app and airplay not working with iphone 4S

    I have the latest appleTV.  I have the remote app loaded onto my ipad3 and iphone 4S.  The app is not working with iphone 4S, nor do I get the airplay icon, hence I can't mirrior my phone on appleTV.  It used to work.  I have deleted and reloaded the app, and still nothing.  It worked fined until a month ago or so.  I have enabled home sharing.
    The app and airlplay are working just fine with the ipad3.  I have the ipad and appleTV hooked up to my router using 5Ghz, and the iphone only connects to the 2Ghz network on the same router.  I don't think this is the issue, because it worked before.
    Also, when I click on the remote app on the iphone, to add an itunes library, a code pops up on the phone, which I enter into itunes on my Win7 PC.  Nothing seems happed on the computer when I enter the code.  Could this have anything to do with recent appleTV or itunes updates?  Any possible solutions?

    It seems like I am having the same problem.
    I have the latest AppleTV 1080, imac 27", ipad, ipad2, 2 iphone 4, all with the latest iOS. After I have the AppleTV connected, a few problems showed up:
    (1) ipad plus iphones cannot airplay photo to AppleTV. After the play button and the grey screen displayed "the playing msg on AppleTV", nothing happened. it is the same for ipad/iphone.
    (2) iMac not Airplay to AppleTV
    (3) Airplay Mirroring not working
    The following are done:
    - Home sharing enabled
    - To test the devices are connected. I set a passowrd for Airplay and the ipad/iphone both requested for it so they are network and devices are ok

  • Safari not working on ipad mini

    Hello, I can"t seem to get Safari working on my ipad mini. The screen is unresponsive and the text input boxes cannot have any text inputted. I have gone thru the various remedys I have found in this and other forums and nothing has worked. I brought it into an Apple store for a Genius to try and remedy and the inital troubleshooting didn't work. They tried a reboot, reset, and finally a new restore and the results were all the same.....nothing. They then took a brand new iPad mini out of a sealed box and setup that one. Believe it or not, after setting it up the same problem occured on this new iPad mini! So I asked to have my original iPad back as it had a personalization etched on the back but was told it was already swapped out and they couldn't return it to me. So now I have a brand new iPad mini that exhibits the same problem of Safari not working and also the advice from the Genius that in a couple of days Apple will have an update. I haven't seen any updates as yet so I am asking anyone on this forum if they have a solution to get Safari working. By the way everything else on the unit functions, I can surf using Chrome, read emails, etc.
    Thank you

    Go to ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari
    Move the Cache.db (or ApplicationCache.db) file from the com.apple. Safari folder to the Trash.
    Restart your Mac. Launch Safari. Try the back button.
