Safari stopped loading after an update

safari stopped loading, so i tried to download safari disk image from the apple site but when i try to open it i get the error that disk image failed to mount because it was "not recognized" i tried opening as a test user but got the same error. So then i dragged the original safari application to the trash and tried it but got the same error again

That generally means a bad download, or a Disk corruption problem.
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Tiger Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)

Safari stops loading after a few pages...

This is a revisit of a problem I've had for almost a year now...
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=3181078#3181078
Open a couple of pages (fine) but from then on the progress blue bar makes it to the end of the http:// text and stops.
The browser is running and there's no sign of App not responding... leading to a force quit. It simply stops loading the pages.
This is even happening after installing Public Beta so I'm guessing it's deeper in the OS than any of teh files replaced or cleaned with this new install.
I like Safari, but not when there is a silly corruption/fault like this.
Thanks
Nigel.

I'm having a similar problem. Browser won't get past http not only with Safari but with Firefox as well. But with a few twists. My computer will actually crash on some pages running flash after a few minutes. Are you connecting to internet wirelessly?
I was at genius bar today and of course the computer seemed to be working ok, after crashing on me two or three times in the morning. But that was before I came up with the flash theory. They checked the crash log and saw an issue with airport. So they think it's an issue with my home router/modem unit. But I'm not so sure because my other computers, pc's, are doing ok. So I'm beginning to think it's an issue with the Airport card in the computer. I'm in process of trying to narrow it down now.
Could airport card be getting funky after being on for a few minutes? my computer is only a few weeks old.

Safari stops loading after opening my RSS feeds

When I want to open all my RSS feeds in Safari, it starts to load, but after about 1 to 2 min, all my pages stop loadind. The address bar is then "half blue" ...
In FF everything works fine, so network (airport) works fine.
Anybody out there who can help.
Cheers,

Hi
Welcome to Apple Discussions
If this is happening only when accessing the RSS feeds, go to your Home>Library>Syndication folder and move the database3 file to the desktop. Then restart Safari and try the feeds.
If Safari works as intended, it means the RSS database file was corrupted (a new one is created automatically on the Safari restart). In that case you'll need to reset for each feed any custom page sorting you may have set up. If no go, move the database file back to its original location.
Instead, go to the same Library>Preferences, moving the following two files to the desktop:
com.apple.Syndication.plist
com.apple.SyndicationAgent.plist
Then restart Safari and try the feeds.

Safari stops loading website

I have one of the new 27" imacs, with the Apple airport router, Safari 6.05 and OS X 10.8.5. As of the last upgrade , when clicking on websites or if I'm tryiing to open one of my favorite links, safari stops loading the website. The only way to load any website is by me going to the address bar clicking on it and hitting enter, once I do this the site will load, this is not the only problem along with website if I'm watching a video half way through the video it will come to a complete stop and no matter how many times I hit the play button nothing happens. To get the video to run I have to hit the back button leave the webpage and then go forward back to the video click the play where the video will completely load and Im able to finish watching the video. It doesn't matter if its youtube, hulu or any other service I get the same results. Does anyone have any suggestions how to resolve this problem.

Have you installed the supplemental update to 10.8.5?

Safari stopped loading all images!

Safari stopped loading all images! Do I have to reinstall or is there a better fix for this?

Yep. Don't know how programs get the nerve to bug-out on their own, but surfing through the forums gave me the inkling to look further. I had to post the no-brainer since it seemed so painfully obvious!

Safari stops loading

Since a few days Safari stops loading some websites before completing (including Apple.com). The proposed solution on this forum to add two DNS codes does not help in my case.
Your suggestions will be appreciated!

Try resetting Safari:
IMPORTANT: Resetting Safari removes all cookies, saved passwords, and saved AutoFill information, not just the ones saved during the current browsing session. Cookies saved by other applications may also be removed.
To reset:
Choose Safari > Reset Safari.
Deselect any items you don’t want to reset:
Clear history: Clears the stored addresses of webpages you’ve viewed.
Empty the cache: Clears the temporary location on your computer where Safari saves webpages you’ve viewed. The cache helps webpages load more quickly.
Clear the Downloads window: Clears the list of files you’ve downloaded from websites. Only the names are removed; the files themselves are still on your disk until you remove them.
Remove all cookies: Removes cookies that websites have stored on your computer.
Remove all website icons: Removes website icons, which are small graphics that help identify sites on the Internet. You see them in the Safari address bar and bookmarks list, and other places. These icons are stored on your computer.
Remove saved names and passwords: Removes user names and passwords, which Safari remembers for you when the AutoFill feature is turned on.
Remove other AutoFill form text: Removes some personal information, such as telephone numbers, used to automatically complete forms on webpages. Safari remembers this information for you when the AutoFill feature is turned on. Removing AutoFill information does not remove information from your address book.
Clear Google searches: Clears the Google search field of recent searches, which are normally saved in a list viewed by clicking the search field’s magnifying glass icon.
Close all Safari windows: If you don’t close all Safari windows, someone could use the Back and Forward buttons to view the webpages you’ve visited.
Click Reset.
Open windows are closed and a new window opens. The new window has a new history for the Back and Forward buttons and the SnapBack buttons.

Usb hard drive not loading after security update

usb hard drive not loading after security update
I can't seem to find any other posts about this problem.
I have three external hard rives connect by a USB hub to my iMac.
Problem is that if I turn on the hard drive(s) AFTER start up I get a message that the drive either was not recognized by the OS or that it was ejected unexpectedly.
I get the same issue but not all the time if I turn them on before I boot the iMac.
I used the disk drive utility to "repair" the drives but they always come back as "probably ok".
If I restart the iMac with the drives connected (on), it seems to work but not all the time.
A bit annoying as I am wondering if the drives are OK or not.
I don't always need the drives as they are for backing up images from my camera using Apreture.
This all began after i did the latest security update.
is the update to blame?
mahalo.

Yes, you can still use those instructions to reset the PRAM.
You said that you booted to your install disk and that your primary drive did not show up at the Select a Destination screen? That usually means that the computer is either not recognizing your partition, or it's not recognizing the hard drive itself.
Start with this article and follow all the steps even if you already tried them. I suspect that you'll get to step 4 and you'll end up having to call Applecare. If you haven't done those steps, they're most likely going to make you do them anyway, so you might as well get them done before the call.

Sounds like a permissions issue.
- repair permissions using Disk Utilty
- re-install just safari 2.0 from Tiger disk1 http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301229
MUST FIRST REMOVE THE Safari.pkg file from: HD_1 > Library > Recipts folder > safari.pkg.

My wifi stopped working after a update last year and I have updated since, can this be fixe

MMy wi fi stopped working after a update early last year and I have just made do since then by using i pad at home. I was going to upgrade my phone but need to clarify if it was the upgrade that broke my wifi and can it be fixed? I have heaed of Apple replacing phones affected by this problem. Please help

If those solutions don't work your iPhone 4s has developed a hardware problem. The permanent solution is to get it replaced. I have not heard of Apple replacing long out of warranty iPhones.
You can search the internet for heating and freezing solutions that might work (at least for a while).

BoardMaker plus 6 stopped working after OS update

My Boardmaker Plus stopped working after I update my system to OSi Yosemite. The disk just spins and spins and the program does not come up? Is anyone else having this problem? How can I fix it. I need to use the program for work.

I was worried about this, I still haven't upgraded. But while doing research I saw that there is now an online version, I wonder if it's the same ...

Iphone 4 error message while in wifi "safari can not open page because server stopped responding" after iOS6 update

I am currently using my Iphone 4 in wifi networks only after canceling my cell phone plan. Over the weekend I did the IOS6 update on the iphone as well as updated my macbooks itunes and OS X operating systems updates that were available. Since that my iphone's safara app won't connect. After it trys to connect for a minute or 2 I recieve the message: "safari can not open page because server stopped responding". However ALL other apps that require the phone to be connected to wifi for use work properly, i.e app store, imessage, pinger, facebook, etc. I have checked all network setting and they looked right to me. Anything I'm missing, ideas to try, or am I sol (lol)? Safari worked perfectly before the update so I thought I might have done something wrong or forgot to change some type of setting.
Thank you!

If you can access Facebook while on Wifi at home, but you are unable to access it while away running on your carrier's 2G network, I could phone your carrier. You have already completed the Cellular Data troubleshooting for the iPhone, so any limitations keeping your from connecting to Facebook over cellular will have to be answered by your carrier.

Module 'asus-nb-wmi' stopped being auto-loaded after kernel update

Well, the module 'asus-nb-wmi' which takes care of some FN keys and keyboard backlight stopped being auto-loaded after the latest kernel udpate (3.9.3), so I had to add it to /etc/modules-load.d/ to get it working. This has happened before, between kernel updates and I had to re-install arch to fix it, but now I found that manually adding the module is a nice solution, but I want it to be loaded automatically or at least know why does this happen. Kernel modules, such as this one, should be loaded automatically right?
Best regards.
Last edited by DanielRS (2013-07-04 19:54:48)

I think there is a valid question here; Same thing happened to me.
Upon a default install of arch, the module was auto-loaded without the user touching any configuration files
at some point during kernel updates, the module is no longer auto-loaded
the user then has to find out what is happening and go add the module to the appropriate config file to force load on boot.
So the larger question is; without config files being taken into consideration, how does the kernel decide what modules to load? f
I know it has something to do with the hardware that it detects, but am unaware if this is something within the RC or systemctl booting system, or if this is part of the kernel.
I'm going to dig around some more on the internet, as i'm sure the answer is out there somewhere.. but if someone that is on this forum happens to read and know the answer, it would be nice to know
thanks

Safari super slow after latest update to 10.9.1. Please help. Thanks.

My internet is deathly slow after doing the update. Any advice? Other programs seem fine. Thanks, Yvette

Hi yipck,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I recommend starting with the tips in this article if Safari is loading web pages slowly:
Safari 5.0.1 or later: Slow or partial webpage loading, or webpage cannot be found

Safari stops loading images randomly

When I'm using Safari, it will be working fine, and then for some unknown reason, it will just stop loading images, and a small blue box with a question mark will appear instead.
This happens on all sorts of pages, it can be a page that was loading fine before, then no images will load.
Also, the problem does eventually go away, and then images start loading again.
I noticed tonight that it started happening when my battery was low...could it be related to battery power?
Help! This is very annoying.

I'd love to know why this seems to have worked...
DNS - Domain Name System - is the system that tells your computer and web browser where to look for a domain like www.apple.com. The domain is just a name - some system has to be used to figure out where that site actually resides, so it can be loaded in a web browser.
Basically, each ISP sends you to a DNS server that looks up a domain (e.g. www.apple.com) and figures out what that domain's IP address is (e.g. 17.149.160.49 ). Your web browser is then directed to that physical address and is able to load the web site you were looking for.
Some DNS servers (nameservers) can be flaky, either not providing updated addresses or being slow to access. Sometimes there are problems in communication somewhere between your computer, your router, your modem, and the DNS server. Often those problems can be fixed by manually entering your ISP's nameserver addresses or by using alternate nameserver addresses. Common alternate nameservers are Verizon's DNS servers (which include the addresses 4.2.2.1 and 4.2.2.2) and the OpenDNS DNS servers (208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220).
By specifying nameserver addresses in your System Preferences or in your router's settings, you are choosing to use a different system for finding web sites than the one your ISP is using and/or you might be solving any communication problems that might exist somewhere between your computer and the nameserver you're using.
