Web pages seem to continue to load

When I view web pages with Safari the icons in both the Address bar and on the Tab carry on rotating, as if to load the page, even after the web page has seemingly loaded. It doesn't do this with all web pages but most, I was wondering if this had anything to do with the new cookie acceptance thing? Or is my Mac plagued with viruses and untold badness? Apart from being extremely annoying It doesn't seem to have affected my Mac at all, but it is very very annoying.
Any advice would be appreciated.

Hi...
Very doubtful it's a virus or malware or cookies.
Try this..
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type this exactly as you see it here:
~/Library/Safari/WebpageIcons.db
Click Go
Move the WebpageIcons.db file from the Safari folder to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.

I have been experiencing connection issues with loading web pages. It's as if the web pages do not want to load all the way and some times not at all. This has happen with all three of my computers with the same browsers.

There are times when web pages do not want to load fully and other times not at all. They just continue to open up with a blank screen. My routers light flash during this process and then they stop as if no connection is being made. I do know for sure it is not my ISP or internet explorer browser.
Thank you,

I continue to have this problem and have tried all recommendations so far...I notice also when I click on a web site on the taps side of browser once it starts loading however it does not connect, web site comes up just blank while it continues to search. The same thing happens while in an email program with clicking in the email link and page pops up and continues to search for the web site. You have to reload over and over again until it finally locates it and then opens. Should I uninstall the Firefox browser and install again.....?

Upgraded to v6 iphone software, all my contacts have gone, and I can't connect to my email. Other web pages seem ok. Help!

Hi
Can anyone help me? Since upgrading to v6 of the iphone software the other day, all my contacts have gone, and I can't connect to orange contacts restore to get them back, or access my email. Other web pages seem ok.
When I try to connect to the orange backup app, the connection just times out and says connection error. When I try to access my email it says verify i have put the correct a/c info into mail settings.
Both things were fine before I updated.
Help!
iPhone 4S, iOS 6

Caroline
I am having the same problem. Have tried everything I can think of and have bee searcing the community for a solution without any luck. I think I am going to uninstall ios6 if I can figure that out and reinstall.
Good luck!

Since upgrading to FF6 and now through FF7 web pages need repeated refreshing to load this does not happen with other browsers. I have tried many solutions. None have worked. Any ideas?

Problem began after a Firefox 6 update (i do not remember which one) and has continued through current use of Firefox 7.0.1. Almost all '''web pages load only through repeated refreshing'''. If I do not refresh the web page it will just continue to try to load (as seen by the green rotating ring continually revolving) in a new window with a new tab (as I have set it to do). Nothing stops, nothing crashes. Once the web page completes and opens (after the refreshings) I can close the window click on the bookmark icon or originating link and the web page will load and open quickly (as it should). I have searched for solutions on the Mozilla site and have done many of the possible solutions (deleting history and caches, etc.) Problem seems to be communication in origin (my FF browser talking to web page server). I do not use a proxy. My set up to the internet is: laptop thru Verizon USB modem to internet. Operates as a wireless dial-up with speeds averaging 55 kbs (fast enough for me). I have used this set up for years with no previous trouble. Anyone have similar trouble, ideas or solutions?

Thanks for your reply cor-el. I had never heard of nor seen the pref network.http.max-connections until I read about it in some of the replies in this support forum. People were saying 256 was the old setting and a new setting of 48 would correct my problem. When I followed the instructions to get to - see - and change the setting I discovered that my network.http.max-connections was already set to 48. I never did this. The only way I can think of that this setting was changed is that it happened by an automatic update to my Firefox browser. So, the problem I have was probably happening while this setting was at 48 all along. It is still set at 48 and I am still having the same problem. I will try as you suggest and set it to 30 and see what happens. I'll let you know the results. That's again for your response.

Web pages in Safari fail to load

I'm having an issue with web pages continually failing to load. I'm not sure if this is a problem with my phone or with my network.

Hello Grohly,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

I want to always be able to page down using space bar, but some web pages seem to disable this.

I often use the space bar to page down in web pages rather than scrolling with the mouse or arrow keys, but in the last few months I've encountered a number of pages that don't seem to allow this browser feature to work. For instance, space bar doesn't page down on https://medium.com/about-work/65d4740f7a2f, although it works fine on mozilla.org and nearly all other sites. The problem is specific to particular pages, so I think it's unlikely to be an add-on problem, and it's certainly not that I've turned on caret browsing. As far as I've tested, the arrow keys still work to scroll such pages, and the mouse always works, so it seems as if space bar has been specifically disabled. (Generally the pages on which space doesn't work seem to be specialized for phones, judging by layout and font size.) Is it possible to reject whatever code is disabling my browser so that my space bar always works?

Another possibility would be a userscript. A userscript is generally written to work on a particular site, although it also can be made to work globally on all pages.
To run a userscript, you require either the Greasemonkey extension or the Scriptish extension.
And somebody to write the script! You can propose a new userscript to the community and see whether anyone is willing to create it for you.
Ideas and Script Requests forum: http://userscripts.org/forums/2
(I searched briefly on userscripts.org but didn't see a script for this purpose posted there. Please be careful in testing scripts from the site as many recently posted scripts mess with your Facebook account when you visit FB.)

Web pages and/or images not loading

This problem started a few weeks ago once every few days or so, then got more and ore frequent where now it is happening multiple times each day.
I am using Safari 6.1 on an iMac running OS 10.7.5
Random web pages (some way more than others) will not load when I go to them. Sometimes, the text of the pages will load, but no images. Sometimes the URL progress bar will go across about an inch and the screen will go to blank white (this is most often) and it will just sit there. If I leave it alone, usually the web page will finally load about 4-10 minutes later on its own.
I have talked with my ISP and we have tried the following fixes, with no positive results:
When the problem happens, I try pinging the website {using Network utilities) and it always pings just fine.
When the problem happens, I run Traceroute (using Network utilities) and email him a screen shot of the results.
I have changed my DNS numbers to OpenDNS, per his comments.
I have removed the router and plugged in direct.
I have replaced all my Cat5 cables with new Cat6 cables.
While the problem is happening, he can ping me just fine from his end.
When the problem happens, I open Firefox and go to the same site, and have the same blank results in Firefox.
When the problem happens, I can open a new Safari window and go to other sites just fine.
This morning, I had the same issues, so I left it to clear on its own. I then went to Outlook to check my email and I had two emails where the images would not load at all, just like the web pages. So I left it alone for over 20 minutes and still no loading. Then I quit Outlook, re-opened it and the images came in just fine. During that 20 minutes, the web pages loaded in Safari in the background.
I found and read a discussion about this issue ( https://discussions.apple.com/message/22125235#22125235 ) and per that conversation, I created a GUEST user account, closed out of my account and logged in as a GUEST. I then used Safari to browse the web ans while it was faster, eventually after about 30 minutes, I found a page that would not load (one of my usual suspect pages). I then sat back and let it go and after 5 minutes, the page loaded just fine.
HELP!!!!!
John

Interesting side note . . .
After writing this (above), I clicked on the SUBMIT button at the bottom of the page and the screen went blank white and it sat there for more than five minutes, when it finally went through. SO, i had my problem occur while submitting my question about the problem!
Awesome!

Why is my computer slow?

Sometimes web pages seem too big to fit in my screen...

...I can't see the far right side of many web pages I visit,(including the previous "Ask a Question" screen),...None of the Display/screen resolution options enable me to fit the whole page inside my screen,However,When I click the screen maximize button,(located on the upper right next to the close page button),..back and forth,I get a momentary glimpse of the complete page,but it only flashes a moment,then goes back to missing the far right of the page.,It seems to be up to 1/4th of the page is missing from the right side,affected pages include "Gmail",My Bank page,(where my "log out" button,and a sub menu are hidden),..and many others.,All my settings seem to be correct as best I can tell.,...Thank you.

This issue can be caused by the Babylon Toolbar 1.1.8 extension
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Why does "Switch to the Cloud" web page take so long to load???

This web page takes about 5 minutes to load, and then it asks you to login again, and then tells you there is no such login?? (im already loged in to the main adobe site)

By "Switch to the cloud" page you mean https://creativecloud-specialoffer.adobe.com/special-offer/?loc=en_US? The locale parameter at the end en_US may be differerent for you.
There is no single sign-on from https://www.adobe.com to the "Switch to the cloud" page. Your Adobe ID should be recognized and you may be prompted to "Enter your date of birth".
Please email me with your Adobe ID email at [email protected] and I will investigate.

Web pages in take ages to load in firefox in ubuntu lucid

i have both ubuntu and win xp
in xp firefox runs fine but in ubuntu(lucid) although i ave a good broadband speed of abt 1Mbps and the usual download speed goes to abt 200 to 250 Kbps the web pages take ages to load about 2 min for yahoo home page to load i have updated with the update manager
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

Try a clean install of Firefox on your Linux machine.
# Close Firefox completely. (File->Exit on Windows/Linux, Firefox->Quit on Mac)
# Rename the Firefox installation folder or move it elsewhere.
*Linux: The install location varies based on distribution and installation method. Linux distributions usually don't put Firefox in its own folder, so this method can't be used.
3. [www.getfirefox.com Download Firefox] again and install it
[https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Installing+Firefox+on+Linux Installing Firefox in Linux]
If this fixes the problem, you can optionally check the old install folder for global extensions, components, or corrupt/locked files.

A tab popped up wich said Mozzilla Security, the web page seemed to scan my computer, stated it was infested with several viruses, and that I should download protection immediatly. Is this legit?

A new tab opened up on my tool bar labeled Mozilla Security. The website looks like your security warning. But the security button is gray, McAfee doesn't recognize the site, and the web address does not contain Mozilla.com. The web address of this pop up page is: http://update89.modyett.co.be/index.php?Q57hGtS5bW5G7Hr+M0lEZy4rE7T40TcfocDyRAcjpCPVLS/PhAEpv1Hgq9vgx1qxsLunLyiXHnwwL5T3qX/CE0Q/ZRXJp+2mKYsC+kRq
Do I have a virus, as it states, or is this uninvited web page trying to install a virus? What should I do?

Just because it said Mozilla Security in the title bar does not mean it is from Mozilla as Mozilla nor the Firefox browser has ever done such a thing.
This sounds like one of those fake animated scanners which claims it is scanning your computer and then says you are infected with such and such. It then suggests to download something that will be what really infects your computer if using Windows. As long as you did not download and install this whatever.exe then you should be safe. Though you may want to scan your computer with whatever antivirus software you have with updated definitions just to be safer.
This sort of thing is even more obvious on being fake when Linux and Mac users can encounter these pages.

Can't open a link in a web page, goes immediately to down load and then when opened it shows downloaded to windows photo viewer, which won't open

I open a web page, in the web page there is a link to open another link. I click on this link and the doc is 'downloaded' automatically , I click on the 'green arrow' download button at top of screen, the page opens and says 'windows photo viewer can't open the picture because photo viewer doesn't support this file format or you don't have the latest update to photo viewer'!! I just want to open the link. Grateful for advice.

Where is that happening? Please provide the URL.

No web page address bar when safari loads. When safari opens, it goes to the apple page. All of the sudden, since last night there is no address bar or search bar on top. Just grey. Please helps,

After Safari opens, there is no address or search box on top (or bottom). I can't type in a new web page.
Please help me.
Thank you for any help

Under VIEW, the "hide toolbar" is in bold, so I can not click "view toolbar"
I tried the customize option as well and that doesn't work either.
Thank you so much for trying to help me. I don't know what's wrong with Safari. I restarted the computer and did all updates. Really bummed :)
