Webkit2webprocess.exe on Windows 7 x64 continues crashing

Normally, I LOVE Safari (latest version) as my Google Chrome replacement when Chrome doesn't work. Firefox being slow (at least for me, and buggy, same with whatever version of IE is out there). However, whenever I access, just one site in particular, only seems to happen on this specific website Safari crashes (which it really doesn't I just hit close program and it resumes working like normal without actually closing Safari), but then this Webkit2webprocess.exe window pops up telling me it has crashed. I hit close program and the site reloads and it immediately crashes again. The website in particular is http://www.gameinformer.com/p/replay.aspx. Other sites like facebook, gmail, and hotmail occassionally do the same thing but that is VERY infrequent. It seems game informer's website is the major culprit (and I love this site for my gaming news).
System Specs:
Windows 7 x64
6 GB RAM
2TB HDD
Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS (512 MB) video card
intelcore i7 3.2 Ghz cpu
Is there a way to fix this, and please don't waste my time with 'Just use Google Chrome or other browser' I like Safari alot except for this darned Webkit2 thing that doesn't have a clear purpose (and if it does, let me know what the point of it is). Thanks!

Interesting. It's cranky on my 7 x64 system too, although I don't get the webkit2webprocess.exe crash.
I cranked up the error console (in Safari) for the page, and it complains about the javascript being used for the Google plusone button. So it could be that your webkit2webprocess.exe is being unusually sensitive to that ... although it's not clear why your one dies when mine doesn't.
Are you able to do a "Help > Report Bugs to Apple" from the page before it crashes?

    Hello everybody,
    At first I report my problem to bugzilla of firefox on this URL: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=673272 .
    I hope people from this Forum can help me.
    My Firefox (5.0.1 or 6.0 b2) with Flash (10.3.181.34 or 11.0.1.60) hangs when I enter to webpage with embedded videos or direct on YouTube, faster hangs is on webpage with embedded YT videos.
    When FF is hangs I can kill "plugin-container.exe *32" and see screen like this: http://prntscr.com/2e1yo with new upper bar "The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed. Learn More... Reload page x" but WITHOUT "Send crash report". "Submit crash reports" is enable in FF by default.
    I turn HW acceleration off, testing new FF profile, new windows user profile, safe mode of FF, the newest both softare FF 6.0b2 and Flash11 for Windows 7 64bit = without effect, FF still hangs on my HP Compaq 6510b laptop.

  • Installing iTunes 7.0.2 on Windows Vista X64

    Hey guys,
    Sorry if this has been covered in the past, I looked over the forum and couldn't find anything on this. However I have a solution for installing iTunes 7.0.2 on Windows Vista x64.
    What was happening was that anytime I installed iTunesSetup.exe from Windows Vista x64 it said it couldn't find QuickTime and aborted the install. Well what was happening is that all 32 bit installers now go to the "Program Files (x86)" directory. And the install team at Apple hard coded iTunes Install to look for the QuickTime folder in "c:\Program Files" instead of getting the location provided by the OS ("c:\Program Files (x86)\"). So it blows up when it cannot find the QuickTime directory in the wrong location.
    First download QuickTimeInstaller.exe and install QuickTime. (http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/)
    Move the QuickTime folder from c:\Program Files (x86) to c:\Program Files
    Then download iTunesSetup.exe and install iTunes. (http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/)
    Worked perfectly for me. Let me know if anybody has any problems. I would also like to forward what I found to apple so that they can fix this in the future. Does anybody know a good source to send this too?

    Maybe you can hel me
    Im unable to install itunes 7.0.2 because each time I try to i get an error message saying I have insufficient access to that key...the key being HKEYlocalmachine\software\microsoft windows\...etc, etc. etc...
    Can you helP???

  • Windows 8 64 bit crash when i try to go to any "explore.exe", to acess hard drives C: or D: or icons in my desktop that go to C: or D:

    It crashes on explore.exe so any windows explore aplication it crashes, even in facebook when i want to upload a picture from hard drive. the rest everything is fine, internet works fine, skype, office! the main problem is when i click on my cumputer icon,
    it crashes, or when i upload a USB drive to open and crash,or any type of trying the acess to my C: or D:! what can i do?

    1. As you get the message when accessing Folders that contain pictures/videos, it can sometimes be cured by going to Folder Options > View Tab and put a tick in ‘Always show icons, never thumbnails‘.
    2. It is sometimes caused by a third-party extension. ShellExView can be useful to see which shell extensions have been introduced into Explorer. Read about it then scroll down near to the bottom to download the x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version here
    http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/shexview.html
    When you run it, click or tap on the column labelled Company to alphabetically sequence the entries. You have to assume that the Microsoft entries are bona fide, so concentrate on the third-party entries. Is there anything listed that is either unnecessary
    or unknown? If so, highlight it and click or tap the red spot (top left) to disable it. There shouldn’t be too many of them but you may find it easier to disable them all, then re-enable them (green spot) one at a time and try File Explorer until the culprit
    is found.
    3. If the issue persists, read about and then download, unzip and run Process Monitor version 3.1 (it doesn’t need installing), from here

  • Safari 5.1 Win 7 constantly logging me out of websites, WebKit2WebProcess.exe crashes

    Finally updated to 5.1 last night, Safari now contantly logs me out of various webistes (gmail, facebook, youtube, google, hotmail, kotaku, ign, gamespot, and practicvally every website that requires log in). Also, some websites (facebook and gmail) keep telling me I have my accept cookies setting tuned off, when it's set on "only from sites I visit", had to set it to "always" before I can log in.
    Also, every now and then something called "WebKit2WebProcess.exe" crashes, but it doesn't seem to effect browsing in general. But both of this problems never happened with 5.05, so I thought switching back to 5.05 should solve this.
    And it doesn't, switched back to 5.05, then to 5.04 and back to 5.05 again today, only the "WebKit2WebProcess.exe" crashes stopped. Logging out bug now also happens with older versions of Safari. I tried clearing caches, cookies, and resetting Safari, nothing works.
    Maybe a separate software essential to Safari thats updated with the 5.1 update, is causing the bug; and reverting back to 5.05 and 5.04 doesn't revert this buggy software? Perhaps its a software that has something to do with cookies?
    I HAD TO TYPE THIS POST TWICE, BECAUSE  BY THE TIME I FINISHED TYPING THE FIRST TIME AND CLICKED "POST MESSAGE", SAFARI HAD LOGGED ME OUT. WHEN I PRESSED "BACK", THE AUTOSAVE ONLY SAVED HALF OF THE FIRST PARAGRAPH!!! THIS BUG IS NOW DRIVING ME NUTS!!

    Make sure after running Programs: Uninstall that those directories are cleared, you should not need to do so manually.
    You do know your OS don't you?
    And I repeat my recommendation to invest in free or commercial (and test it too) with "clone OS" of your choice for backups.
    You're fine. Apple installed all that and can be uninstalled, and reinstalled.
    But.... I was also this would allow you to reinstall, and install an older version. Otherwise the older version will not "downgrade" or touch a newer application support library, not usually, and not in fruitville.
    I left iTunes - I said that in the post you are replying to.
    I have not, and will not, bother with Safari again, ever. It looks nice, and easy to read which I like, but I spent too much time - they should tell customers or have a real public beta and have an extra million people kick the tires for a month or two first.
    Safari also behaves different on the Community Forums in ways that IE9 and Firefox do not, but not enough to pull me over, which was my main reason, and that 5.1 was a major security update, as is the latest QuickTime version for Windows.
    They should install and function better if you start from a clean slate (start from scratch), same as how things work and feel after a clean install - which is true of any platform or OS.

    safari 5.1 not loading MOST of the times. like 1 in 100 attempts it works fine, and that too, as long as you work in same window. and what's the webkit2webprocess.exe file?

    the webkit2webprocess.exe has something to do with the sound. Safari works fine for me, except for the occasional time when the webkit2webprocess.exe crashes. Sometimes it crashes Safari altogether but sometimes it just reloads all the tabs I have opened. Either way, it's a huge pain. I hope they fix it with an update soon.

  • Windows 7 x64 Pro, desktop GUI fails to display correctly, or crashes, when High RAM load, and even after. HW changed, same issue. Please Help.

    Hi Guys,
    I have have this horror issue with my PC. I have even changed the hardware configuration and the problem still persists. My PC fails to display the desktop correctly after using highly RAM intensive applications, especially Chrome, but even after getting
    the chance to close it, or waiting for it to crash by itself, the PC is still not able to display correctly the GUI, even on other browser/applications as shown in the screenshots. 
    1st Hardware Config:
    Intel Core2Quad Q9450
    4x2GB DDR2
    MSI P43 motherboard
    Ati Radeon x550 video card
    Software used, that seemed important for me to mention:
    NOD32 v4.2
    Comodo Firewall 5.12
    Chrome
    Screenshot Captor
    SpeedFan
    Other mentions:
    Aero is disabled, because I've considered that it's one of the causes.
    So, I've considered that it's a RAM issue or a videocard issue, and I've upgraded to:
    Intel Core i7 3770k
    4x8GB DDR3
    Asus P8Z77V-LX motherboard
    Intel GPU integrated in the 3770k CPU
    The problem just happened 2 times on this rig also, and the RAM was not even coming close to  it's maximum capacity of 31.7GB. It was at ~20GB's.
    Also, this is another videocard(Intel's integrated GPU), so we can exclude the videocard from the suspects.
    My suspects:
    1) some desktop manager bugs, or other similar issue
    2)  video memory allocation - I'm still suspecting that it can be caused by the amount of RAM dedicated to the videocard, currently, I think  that it is at 256MB.
    3) some poorly designed components of Chrome/Screenshot Captor - still very questionable since there are enough resources on this system, so there should be no fight over resources. And when the system is barely used there are no issues.
    4) Adobe Shockwave Flash - maybe this one????
    I have attached a set of 20 screenshots here, these were taken on the 1st configuration of my PC, using Q9450:
    http://imgur.com/a/Mc8hI#4
    Notice how it distorts the image by duplicating it and showing it in a smaller space, or how does it displays those black rectangles. In those moments, the PC is fully functional(the apps are running the background), without being slowish or something, but
    you can hardly control it like that. For example, I've tried to remove the mouse from the USB, and then I've insterted it back, the image was not displayed correctly, but the mouse was recognised instantly and the pointer was controlable.
    Same thing still happens on the new configuration. Please advise me.
    LE: OS is Windows 7 x64 SP1 Professional and it's Geniune. There is no cracked software on this PC. No games. I've tried to maintain it as clean as possible.

    Hi,
    First, please be ensured that you have installed the latest drivers and all the updates.
    Then check whether this issue will not in
    Safe Mode. If it didn’t occurred, I suggest you narrow down the cause in
    Clean Boot mode.
    In addition, try to create a new profile to see how it works.
    Hope this helps.

  • Fresh Install Windows 7 x64 IE 9 Flash Player Crash

    Greetings All,
    I am working on a major imaging prject for my organization.  I'm getting ready to create a new image for some of our machines so I was getting the reference computers ready.  I have noticed that when flash player is enabled in IE 9 it crashes the browser.  I get the "Internet Explorer has stopped working" error.  I can click the close program button, IE will try to launch the same page again and i get the error again with a bar on the bottome of the IE window stating "A problem with this webpage caused Internet Explorer to close and reopen the tab".  After a few rounds of this I get the "Internet Explorer has stopped trying to restore this website."  This is occuring on two different machines that I have been preping.
    Here are the details of what I have done to these machines:  (Dell E6420 and Dell E6320)
    1.  Installed Windows 7 x64 from install media (blanked the drive so fresh install)
    2.  Installed SEP 11.0.6200.754
    3.  Installed all drivers fresh off of Dell's website.
    4.  Installed Office 2010.
    5.  Ran and updated EVERYTHING from MICROSOFT update, SP1 and IE 9 included.
    6.  Went to Adobe.com and installed the latest Acrobat, Flash, and Shockwave Player from the links on the main page.
    7.  Rebooted and now anytime I go to any page with Flash objects I get the above error.
    Here are version:
    Windows 7 x64 SP1
    IE 9.0.8112.16421
    Shockwave Flash Object (Enabled in Manage Add-ons) 10.2.159.1
    As said these are two brand new machines, two fresh loads, two batches of software fresh from the web, and two machines having unacceptable problems when Flash is installed.  What's up here?
    Many Thanks for your time!

    I’m going to take a moment and do two things, bump the thread, and provide a short synopsis on where we stand on this issue.
    After much trial and error and the help of Chris I can say with relative certainty that this is an issue with compatibility between nVidia’s Optimus systems and Flash player’s hardware acceleration feature.  I don’t know if the issue is just IE9 or IE8.  I haven’t taken the time to try this on an Optimus system with IE 8 yet.  If someone out there is running one of the Optimus enabled laptops with IE8 and the latest flash installed I would love to hear some feed back.
    Ultimately IE8 vs. IE9 is an inconsequential issue.  Soon Microsoft will start pushing IE 9 as an important update meaning that the problem will need to be fixed or we’ll be faced with more users having the problem. 
    I have posted about the issue in the nVidia forums, Dell forums, and Adobe forums.  Please find the links to the threads below.  I don’t believe the issue to be unique to just the two Dell models that I am dealing with.  I have run across numerous complaints along this line from several different OEMs.

    I am trying to load the 64 bit version of iTunes on to my PC but it continues to fail. My Pc is running Windows XP x64 edition. The rrror message states I need Window Vista 64 or later. What should I do?

    There is no version of iTunes that truly supports the 64-bit version of Windows XP and never will be. If you search this forum for "XP 64" or do a web search for something like "iTunes Windows XP 64",  you'll find threads describing the process some people have used to "crowbar" iTunes onto XP 64, with varying levels of success, none of them complete.

  • Photoshop CS4 (11.0.2) crashes when file opens (Windows 7 x64 Pro)

    Did a recent install of Windows 7 x64 Pro and installed Adobe Web Suite and updated all adobe programs. When I use photoshop to open a file, the file opens then photoshop hangs and windows says it has stopped responding then closes. This is a fresh install of windows...
    I used drivermax to backup drivers from a previous install and install those drivers on the new install. After that I installed the newest graphics drivers via nvidia's website.
    I installed all updates for the suite then I cleared my preferences, none of this worked.
    Please let me know where I can find the crash log and any other logs so I can post that info here.

Do not get frustrated with warning and error messages, that are 100% code - just look for one written in words that you can understand, and especially with any, that have links.

  • Reader 9.2 crashed when using attach to email command on windows 2008 x64

    Hi,
    I'm experiencing issues with Adobe Reader 9.2 on a windows 2008 x64 server. This box is running Terminal Services.
    When a user open a pdf and wants to attach it to an email, reader simply crash !!
    Does someone have ever experienced this kind of issue ?
    Thanks.

    Does this happen for all the files or only files greater than a certain size?

  • Why does Acrobat Pro XI continually crash in Windows 8.x?

    When using Acrobat Pro XI on a Dell Optiplex 990 runing Windows 8 and, after upgrade 8.1 it continually crashes. Just trying to save it will crash, but almost any operation will randomly have it fail.

    I am having crash problems on Acrobat XI Pro using MS Surface Pro2 with Windows 8.1 Pro 64 bit.
    After you make a number of comments on a 13 page document; and if you scroll up or down to different pages all the comments (underlining, text boxes, call outs etc.) cannot be seen, the comments entered do not show till you make some more clicks or do something more. After sometime the comments will show up again- very awkward behavior by the program not experienced in Adobe Acrobat X Pro which I operated on a MS Surface Pro with Windows 8.0
    The Surface Pro2 that I have has 8GB RAM, and there aren't any other applications/programs operating using the RAM.
    Not sure if Adobe XI Pro is being tested on a Windows 8.1 with updates as necessary.
    The fact that comments get missing make it difficult to view the document in a meeting on a screen with others......Discouraging to use Adobe.......the only option is to convert to MS Word and maintain stability of program and work done on it.
    It does at times hang and then you have to salvage the document after you close and open the program again and at times if the file was not saved the data is lost.
    ADOBE PLEASE RESEARCH THIS !

    I was running Lightroom 3.6 with the OS Windows XP (Sp3). The whole system crashed, I am unable to recover the serial number. I then upgraded my OS to Windows 7 (x64) and down loaded Lightroom 4.4, I wanted to buy a licence so I then upgraded to Lightroom 5, now when I try to register I am asked for the original licence/serial number. Where do I go from here??????

    If you upgraded from 3.6 to 5 (you didn't indicate buying 4.4) then you will need the serial number from 3.6 in order to be able to use 5.  If you did not keep a record of it there is a chance it might be available thru your Adobe account online, but if not, there is likely not much you can do except to return the upgrade and purchase a full version.  Try contacting support using chat and explain your situation to see if they can help.

    If you did purchase 4.4 then that should be sufficient to use to activate 5.
    I can never be sure what goes on with Lightroom, and the Adobe site (even when it works properly) makes finding information about products difficult these days so I am at a loss to confirm anything I say.

  • Strange crash with Intel FFT in Windows XP x64: only when first starting LabVIEW and opening VI, not when opening VI by double-clicking

    When I use the Intel FFT libraries(MKL), I seem to have a strange crash whenever I start allocating the Intel DFTI descriptors. I call a DLL from LabVIEW 8.2.1, in which these functions are used. I am working on Windows XP x64. This seems like a bug which was present in these libraries, but I got the libraries where the bug was resolved.
    The strange things is that, when I open LabVIEW and then open the VI, LabVIEW crashes from the moment I allocate an Intel Dfti descriptor. But when I just double-click the VI and open it this way, I can run the VI without a crash! I already removed the DLLs in \Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\Shared\MKL\MKL70 to see if they were the cause. But even without them, I still get the crash.
    I know there was a strange crash in the previous version of Intel MKL when calling a DLL and allocating this type of descriptor, so it seems like somewhere LabVIEW still uses old versions of some of these DLLs. But even then, can this explain the difference in behaviour between opening the VI through LabVIEW or directly? And if so, were could I find these DLLs? I've already searched from them everywhere.

    Update:
    - Opening the single VIs directly by double-clicking indeed solves the crash: from then on I can run all VIs using the libraries without any problem. So LabVIEW must do something strange when it is opened.
    - Linking my DLLs statically against the Intel libraries ALSO solves the prolbem. So this seems to indicate LabVIEW loads some dynamic library which screws up everything. But only on x64 systems . This bloats my DLL, but currently I do not see another work-around.
    Anyone has any more ideas? Otherwise I can always submit some test case to LabVIEW support.
