Safari works at home, doesn't work at work!

I do not understand why Safari does not work at work but works fine at home. I am on LAN at work and on airport at home. Sites load very slow, and in most sites, which require login or filling forms (yahoo mail, mapquest, bank sites etc) take forever or do not load at all. ( I dont think my work will have filters for mapquest and apple!) For example, I tried to login thrice in apple discussions after which I gave up and am now writing from Firefox. Reset Safari solves the problem sometimes, but I don't think I should be doing this everytime I go to a site.
All the sites work in Firefox, and also they work in Safari from home
ANy clues?

The "disappearing" affect you describe is not normal. You may need to reinstall Safari.
First, try removing the Apple cookies from your Safari Preferences>Security>Cookies panel. Also, go to your Safari Menu and Empty cache. Then try to log-on to Apple Discussions.
Also, regarding the "disappearing" effect, try Safari from another User Account.
Here is guidance from Apple on how to set up the account. You can ignore step 7 in the article.
Also, on the system preference>Accounts panel, click on "log-in" options. There, select "fast user switching". This allows you to go back and forth between user accounts via an icon in your Menu Bar at the top of the computer screen.
Log-on to the new account and start Safari. If Safari is stable in the new account, then your problem is specific to your regular user account. Otherwise, similar response means a system-wide problem.
Post back with results.

  • Safari copy url button doesn't work

    I just upgraded from an ipad2 to an iPad air 2. Before, if I wanted to copy and paste a url I'd use the copy button. Now,on the new iPad air 2, the copy button just wipes out whatever I've previously copied, and doesn't copy the url.

    You tap and hold down in the URL field until you get the option to select all. Then you choose the option to select all. An option to Copy appears and you select that and then you should be able to paste that URL into a text field.
    Safari copy url button doesn't work
    I Realize that you must know the steps but I am just double checking. If that is not working for you, and you are not having copy and paste issues elsewhere in other apps, I would try clearing Safari, force close it and then reset your iPad.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History and Website Data
    Now force close Safari. In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Next, 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Safari show all tabs doesn't work all the time

    It is annoying: safari show all tabs doesn't work all the time. The little icon to the right of the "New Tab" area sometimes works, and sometimes doesn't. The Shift Command Back-slash, sometimes works, and sometimes doesn't. I find no rhyme nor reason for this. I have a MacBook Pro, Mountain Lion, the latest updates. It doesn't matter if I am in Full Screen or not.
    I am quite confused regarding this.

    Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type of copy paste the following:
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that helped, empty the cache more often from your keyboard.

    My screen is frozen on Safari. Hard rebot doesn't work. Shutting done doesn't help. What can I do?

  • Home places + home doesn't work!

    I've just set my wife's laptop up with Arch a few days ago and am having a couple of teething issues.
    One is that Gnome's places/home doesn't work - I click it and nothing happens.
    Any ideas how to troubleshoot or solve?
    Thanks.

    Of course!
    I have a 'home' icon plonked on the desktop and made visible in gconf editor which works fine - but cannot access it via the places menu.

    My Safari icon/app is missing. I How do i get it back? I try settings - general - restrictions - safari - off / on but doesn't work

    First, it might be you simply put Safari in a folder somewhere. Try searching for it using Spotlight. Drag down on the screen to display the Spotlight search bar and type "Safari". If you see Safari, it is still accessible on your iPad. If not, try the following.
    Reset your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears. Try again to see if the problem persists.
    Finally, if that doesn't help, try turning off restrictions, then turning them back on.

  • Safari works much better since latest update.

    It's amazing how much Safari works since the update from 7.1 to 7.0.5. With the update 7.1 I couldn't open some web-sites and others were terribly slow. I had to use Firefox! Now everything is fine. Safari is my preferred browser.

    Tap Settings > Safari
    Tap to clear History, Cookies, and Data.
    Then reset the iPad.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    No data is lost due to a reset.

  • My iPad will connect to wifi and safari works but all apps that need an Internet connection won't load including iTunes?

    Google on safari works on my iPad but everything else that needs Internet won't even load? Is there anything I can do?

    Have you tried a restart?
    Simultaneously press and hold the Home and Power buttons on your iPad. Do not release them until you see the Apple Logo. Be patient because it takes about 10-15 seconds. Try again and let us know if this helped or not.

  • Why is the new Safari (7) not letting sound be heard from Soundcloud widgets (players) on my website when the earlier Safari worked fine, and other browsers also work fine?

    Might be an incompatible extension or plugin ...
    Try troubleshooting Safari extensions and third party plugins.
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
    If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
    Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect:  Allow all other plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.

  • I can't seem to use the 'Check seats' link on Delta when I use Firefox but Safari works fine. I get the message 'not available at this time' when using Firefox but when I go to Safari it works fine.

    I can't seem to use the 'Check seats' link on the Delta Airlines site when I use Firefox but Safari works fine. I get the message 'not available at this time' when using Firefox but when I go to Safari it works fine. I love Firefox but this sucks!

    That issue can be caused by corrupted cookies.
    Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Firefox > Preferences > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"

    PDF files may also be found under another entry like Portable document.

  • My Safari is not working  right.  It often stalls and I get the "colored spinning wheel of Death".  I send reports to Apple, but I never get any response or helpful info.  What do I do to get Safari working correctly on my MacBook laptop?

    My Safari is not working  right.  It often stalls and I get the "colored spinning wheel of Death".  I send reports to Apple, but I never get any response or helpful info.  What do I do to get Safari working correctly on my MacBook laptop?

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
    If you wish, you may be able to salvage the errant extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.
