Safari (Version 7.1) won't let me type any texts on Facebook?!

Hello everybody,
I'm encountering a very weird problem with my Version 7.1 Safari. First of all, I am running OSX Mavericks Version 10.9.5 on my MB pro retina 13" Display.
Here is my problem, luckily, it is very easy to describe, sadly, it is very annoying!
Whenever I am on Facebook and I want to type in a text, I can't do it!
The blinking typing cursor would be blinking in the writing space, but it wouldn't type anything. (This happens in comment fields, status fields, everywhere, even in messages!)
Does anyone share the same feelings with me? Please help.
PS. I am using Chrome to solve this problem :S
Thanks!

Safari Version 7.1 (9537.85.10.17.1) Mavericks OS X 10.9.5 (13F34)
only I have a 17" mbp.
Exact same scenario, not limited to FB though. Other sites do this randomly and on occasion reloading the page *sometimes* fixes it.
web inspector does not show anything on the page that might be causing the issue..... even when attempting to isolate the text input field.
Some auto-form-submit sites do not work either since the upgrade.

  • Why can't I create a document in my Facebook group on my iPad? It won't let me input any text into the text box field after I create a new document. Thanks.

    Just thought I'd add my solution, I decided to go with WebDAV and I think it actually works better than the iTunes way, the steps are pretty much the same but avoiding the iTunes interface just makes things easier and faster.
    I followed this guide but it does have a small mistake in the httpd-dav.conf file, on line 2, where it's WebServer/WebDAV">, it should be <Directory "/Library/WebServer/WebDAV">.
    The tricky part is setting permissions which if wrong will give you errors when connecting with the iPad, I opted to set all to Read&Write since my home network has a hardware firewall. Another convenience was to add an alias to the webdav share on the Desktop.
    I'm still expecting the call from Apple but even if they fix the iTunes I'm sticking with WebDAV, atleast until I see what's new with iOS5 and iCloud this fall which should bring true sync for documents (I'm hoping that they will offer encryption with my own keys, if not, then I'll probably keep using WebDAV).

  • It won't let me send any texts or calls

    I was on the phone and everything was fine, then the call just dropped. I tried calling back and it wouldn't connect. I shut my phone off, and tried again but nothing happened. It won't let me send texts, and when people try to call me it rings once and then goes straight to voicemail?

    Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Connections
    If that does not work, contact the carrier.

  • Safari 4.1.3 won't let me type in URL bar

    I'm using Safari 4.1.3 in OSX10.4.11 on a PowerPC G4 12 inch Powerbook. Last night I suddenly became unable to type in the URL bar. If I try to, my cursor changes to the pinwheel and never stops, so I must force quit. I can still highlight and delete text in the URl bar, as well as reload the current page by pressing enter/return. I can also type in the browser's Google search bar, and I can still navigate to other pages by clicking links on the page already open. This is the first time I've had this problem.
    A complete system scan with Sophos found nothing, and deleting and reinstalling Safari 4.1.3 has not resolved the issue. What's going on here? Anyone seen this before?

    Hi,
    Go to  ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/ApplicationCache.db
    Move the ApplicationCache.db file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash.
    Restart your PowerBook, try Safari.
    If that didn't help, from your Safari menu bar click Safari > Reset Safari
    Select the top 7 buttons, click Reset. Quit then relaunch Safari to test.
    ~ (Tilde) character represents the Home folder.
    It's not a malware or virus issue... 

  • My iPhone 4S won't let me send any text messages, I can see the recent ones but when I go to type back the screen goes off and it goes back to the home screen?

    I have had my iPhone 4S for a while and it's worked perfectly. Messages were going through fine and everything. I went on this morning as I had a text from someone. I opened the text and the screen just went back to the homepage. It has never done this before so I tried opening it again. The same happened again. I opened a recent text and I can read the old messages fine, it's just as soon as I click to message/text them back it just goes off.
    I tried with Facebook mailing and the same happens, it just goes off. And when I go on safari and try and type something in it goes off.
    I don't know what to do. I have tried turning it off and on and that didn't work. I have tried resetting network connections and I just don't know what to do. I am currently trying to software update to the iOS 7.0.4 to see if that has anything do with it. As before I clicked to text the person back a carrier question came up and it has come up before, could that have something to do with it?
    Please can you help me?

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore.  Try each of these in order until the issue goes away.

    So I just updated to the newest update that was available for safari and iTunes but now it won't let me go on the Internet using safari and  it also won't let me sync my songs ,,,,,(it takes forever to backup my iPad AND my iPod) so what can I do ?

    If you're on windows try the following:
    This worked for me an hour ago and has allowed me to sync ok. Still haven't tried downloading the new version 5 to the phone yet as I'm still backing up photos etc just in case.
    1. Quit itunes
    2. Start an elevated command prompt (Start Menu -> All Programs -> Accessories -> right click Command Prompt -> Run as Administrator)
    3. Once in the command prompt type the following 3 words starting where your cursor is flashing: netsh winsock reset
    4. press ENTER
    5. Reboot your machine
    6. Restart itunes & connect device to sync
    7. Good luck

    Yes, there's a limit, and that iPod touch has reached it.

  • HT4623 When I try to update IOS 6 to my I Phone using my computer, it keeps saying  This version of iTunes (10.6.1) is the current version.  It won't let me update and I don't have wi fi

    When I try to update IOS 6 to my I Phone using my computer, it keeps saying  This version of iTunes (10.6.1) is the current version.  It won't let me update and I don't have wi fi

    It seems that you try to update iTunes rather than your phone. To update your phone, connect it to your computer, and on the page of your phone in iTunes, you should have a button "check for updates" or something similar.

    Hi Barbara,
    I had a similar problem recently and using the "more like this" feature I discovered an answer. To a problem posed by Holo7,  who like myself was a newbie on this platform,  b noir proposed a solution to Holo7's problem that also worked with my problem. It involves downloading a version of MS Windows Instal Cleanup and using it to completely remove all traces of the old version.
    If you look at my problem (follow OldGit66) and the link to Holo7's problem then you will find b noir's answer which I think may help you. I am new around here so you might want to wait for one of the higher status correspondents.
    Regards

  • I accidentally updated iPhoto on my (now) external hard drive and now it won't let me access any of my photos. What can I do?

    I accidentally updated iPhoto on my (now) external hard drive and now it won't let me access any of my photos. What can I do?

    So, you have two versions of iphoto? One from the old machine and one from the new?
    If so, forget about opening with the older version of iPhoto.
    For the newer version:
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
