Safari vs in-app-browser performance

I have heard that performance using in app browsing vs using safari on an ios device is much slower. Are there any signifant tests that can proove this?
In cases where a webpage is using gzip to compress webcontent, are there any known performance issues for in-app-browsing?

It happens but to a much lesser - almost unnoticeable - extent.

  • Since Updating to 10.9.5 Safari and the App Store drop internet connection periodically while other apps Mailplane and Epic Browser continue to work ?

    Hello.
    Since Updating to 10.9.5 Safari and the App Store drop internet connection periodically while other apps Mailplane and Epic Browser continue to work ?
    Never had this problem previously running a Macmini Server 2010 with the latest Mavericks Updates
    Tried reinstalling over my existing OS and seemed ok until I once again updated to the latest security and Safari updates
    Any ideas ?
    Using ethernet but wireless acts same,

    I also forgot to note that this problem also persists with the new iBooks application. I cannot get past the 'Get Started' screen or access the iBooks Store. Again, all top bar menus are unresponsive.

  • Safari and other apps are very slow

    I am frustrated because I have goodled and tried everything.  Safari and other apps on my MacBook Pro are loading very slowly.  This was not the case about a month ago.  I purchased this Macbook in October 2014 and it should not be as slow as it is.  What can I do?  I have changed a few settings and made some adjustments and the performance is still the same. Help.

    When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is especially bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.  
    These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    Launch the Console 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 and start typing the name.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Scroll back to the time you noted above.
    Select the messages entered from then until the end of the episode, or until they start to repeat, whichever comes first.
    Copy the messages to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of it useless for solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    When you post the log extract, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "The message contains invalid characters." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the text on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.

  • Full Screen Safari in Single App mode

    I'm trying to configure some ipads for use as web kiosks.  I can set Safari to single app mode and to only allow the one website we want used, but it still shows the bookmarks, share, new tab, and other buttons, along with the address bar, at the top.  I also tried configuring a web clip for the site, and setting the web clip to full screen mode.  That worked to get rid of the address bar etc, but if safari is in single app mode I can't launch the web clip, and if it's not in single app mode, the web clip works but other apps are also available.
    How can I get Safari locked down to single app mode and showing the website in full screen only?
    Thanks!

  • I have Safari 5.1.10 Browser and keep getting notices to upgrade from my bank.  What is the best upgrade?

    I have Safari 5.1.10 Browser and keep getting notices to upgrade from my bank.  What is the best upgrade?

    Upgrading to Yosemite
    You can upgrade to Yosemite from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Yosemite can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
    Upgrading to Yosemite
    To upgrade to Yosemite you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Yosemite from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Yosemite is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
        OS X Mavericks/Yosemite- System Requirements
          Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Yosemite
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
         Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.

  • Can't set Safari as default web browser

    I recently installed Firefox as a back up web browser for when I have problems with Safari. Now whenever I click a link in an email it opens up Firefox even though Safari is already opened. My default web browser has set itself for Firefox and has even removed Safari as an option! I have to choose "Select" to get to my apps folder to choose Safari. But even then the email links insist on opening Firefox and when I restart my computer, Firefox is once again the seleceted browser in the Safari prefrences. How can I keep this from happening?

    Hello Jazlow,
    I believe to change the default browser all you have to do is open Safari -> Preferences -> General -> Default browser. That should change it for you.
    Didn't finish reading the last post. You can try to delete the firefox preference file org.mozilla.firefox.plist or using a program like pref setter to edit the apple.safari.plist though I wouldn't recommend that unless your very familiar with the OS. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

  • "save picture" from within in-app browser

    Hi,
    we’d like to create a "download wallpaper section" in one of our publications. For this we have created a button that opens a local html page with the picture (located in HTMLResources). Here we would like to use the standard "save picture" function in iOS (see screenshot).
    Per default DPS does not allow to open the link via iPad-Safari (when using HTMLResources:index.html), it only opens in the in-app browser which seemingly does not offer the "save picture" option. (only copy)
    Is there a way to get the picture from the (local) html page into the iOS pictures section?

    I think my question was a bit clumsy...
    Let me put it this way: is there a way to open an html (that is located in the HTMLResources) in Safari?
    Thanks

  • Is there a way to to set up safari for automatic private browsing?

    Without having to select it from the safari tab each time you launch the app.?
    Automatically.

    Is there a way to to set up safari for automatic private browsing... Without having to select it from the safari tab each time you launch the app.?
    Here's one option...
    Follow these steps to ensure that Private Browsing is turned on automatically each time Safari launches:
    1) Under System Preferences > Universal Access, check "Enable access for assistive devices."
    2) Copy the code below and paste it into your AppleScript Script Editor, located in your Applications > AppleScript folder:
    *activate application "Safari"*
    *tell application "System Events"*
    *tell process "Safari"*
    *click menu item "Private Browsing…" of menu 1 of menu bar item "Safari" of menu bar 1*
    *if exists button "OK" of window 1 then*
    *click button "OK" of window 1*
    *end if*
    *end tell*
    *end tell*
    From the Script Editor's File menu choose Save As > File Format: application, and leave the Options unchecked. Place the saved script in your User > Library > Scripts folder, or in some other out-of-the-way place on your hard drive.
    3) Download and install Do Something When. Set up a new rule with Do Something When and configure it to open the newly saved AppleScript app when Safari launches.
    Works for me, using Mac OS 10.4.11.
    Best regards... Good luck.

  • Testing webdynpro browser performance

    I am trying to add the tag: &sap.session.ssr.showInfo=true  to the end of my webdynpro test app URL to see browser performance info in the status bar.  But this is not working for me.  I see nothing.  I have tested with IE 6 and Firefox.  The app works fine, but no perf. data is there.
    Reference:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/05/fac4402418742ae10000000a155106/frameset.htm
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/b5/7e1141e109ef6fe10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
    Note how in teh first above refernced doc, it says to use &sap.session.ssr.showInfo=true, while the next one says to use ?sap.session.ssr.showInfo=true.  I have tried both, although I suspect the second doc is wrong.
    Am I missing another setting to enable this?

    Try "sap-wd-showInfo=true" or "sap-wd-ssr-showInfo=true" (I don't remember exactly).

  • IOS 8.1 installed yesterday has spoilt my iPad 2! There are no keyboard, message or app sounds, performance is now sluggish, juddery and strange, battery is draining fast and it no longer security locks when put to sleep.

    I am so cross because iOS 8.1 installed yesterday has ruined my iPad 2! There are now no keyboard, message or app sounds, performance is slow, juddery and strange, the battery is draining fast and the iPad no longer security locks when put to sleep.  I have checked all the settings, done a number of resets and really wish I hadn't bothered and stayed with iOS 7 when it all worked like a dream.  I thought that by waiting until 8.1, teething problems would have been fixed and I am just horrified that there is no going back!  I am not the only iPad owner that has this set of problems so why didn't you warn us Apple!  What are you going to do to help us?  I do not want to be forced into buying a newer version of iPad because you broke this one!

    In spite of the fact that you said you checked the settings, I still believe that you have system sounds muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the control center if you are running iOS 7. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to control center . Tap on the bell icon and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock can be accessed in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

    AS for your other issues, have you done any other troubleshooting like resetting your iPad, resetting all settings or doing a complete factory reset?

    Hi I am using an iphone 4 and its was working fine.  Presently its giving browsing error.  Whenever I am trying to browse internet by using safari or any other browser it retruns with an error message "server not responding" Even the same thing is happening with youtube also. The worst part is am able to check my mails, able to chat and so on... only thing not able to browse through the browser.  I have tried restore option also.  This is happening with both Wlan and Data con. too
    Please help...

    I do not really know much about this kind of problem, but i may be your internet connection.
    If you are on your own #G network then:
    Go to Settings > then enable "Airplane Mode". Count to 10 and then disable it.
    Then wait patiently until you get a good connection and then try again.
    If you are on a nearby Wi-Fi connection then:
    Go to Settings > Wi-Fi > then disable then enable after counting to 10. Make sure that you are connected and then try again.
    If all else fails, then you need to contact your provider for assistance.

    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Close all apps. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • Audio tag not working in safari 5.1.7 browser on windows 7 machine
