Why is this new Safari so crap????

it takes forever to load between pages and keeps failing. i have not got time to wait for it!!!!!!!

Hi Mark
Are you using OS X Tiger or Leopard?
Adding DNS server codes seems to get past this hurdle. The codes are usually necessary because your Internet Provider is using a code structure that's outdated for the latest browser.
Post back and I'll provide directions. Also, let me know if you are using Airport or Ethernet.

  • 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.

  • I just downloaded OS x mavericks. In this new safari browser when i start text to speech whole safari just freezes and stops responding and after that i have to force restart it. Any solution for that?

    Its really great to just select a text and let your PC read it out load and i love that feature. But it is just not working for me in the new safari.

    When in Safari, my page also jitters as I scroll and the doc also jitters when I pass the cursor over it....  have not yet found a solution......

  • Why is this new system such a pile of crap?

    The new updates constantly crash my whole network. Blank keyboard on my phone. Computer freezes. My printer says it has a "broken pipe." Whatever the **** that means!

    Several do have problems, I advise never doing automatic updates until you wait & see what problems arise.

  • Why is the new Safari so slow

    Ever since I updated to Mavericks, I get the pinwheel frequently in Safari and it operates slower than previously. Are others having this issue?

    First, delete the cache ...
    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or 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 didn't help, it might be a Safari extension or third party plug-in that was compatible with the prior OS X, but not Mavericks.
    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.

  • Why does this latest Safari refuse to send a web page?  It can't find MAIL?

    Please help me. I always have sent a web page by going to file and clicking on 'mail contents of this page ' or 'mail link to this page'. Suddenly my newest Safari 3.1.2 and my Leopard OS X tell me "Safari couldn't create an email message because it couldn't locate an email application. You can use the mail application with MAC OS X to send webpages.To do so you need to install mail using the OSX installation CD's."
    Huh? What is this sudden change? HELP!

    Searching these forums I found that at least one person fixed this exact problem by simply toggling the default email application setting.
    Open Mail, go to Mail > Preferences > General. Change the "Default email reader" to something other than Mail.app. Launch and then quit Safari. Change the Mail setting back to Mail as the default email program. Launch Safari again and see if this fixed the problem.

  • Why is this new update taking sooooo long?

    why is iPhone 4s update taking so long?

      Because all those people who said "I'll cleverly wait until the day after the initial release to download" are all piling on today.
    Seriously, the server loads will likely taper off by the weekend, if you want to wait.

  • Why is this new version not working on Youtube?

    I clicked a video and then the screen is loading but it didn't start to play the clip, it showed a word "Upgrade" instead. So I clicked on it and it led me to this Adobe Flash player downloading page. I have finished installing the software as it told me to, but the videos are still not playing like they used to be and they kept show the "Upgrade" word as if I have never done the installation of this software! It is quite bugging me since I can no longer use Youtube to watch anything! If you know the way to fix this problem please tell me, I will be very appreciated.
    Thankyou~!

    Thankyou so much for your reply!
    My operating system is Windows XP, I think it is a pretty old version because I bought this computer around December,2006. My web browser is Internet Explore 8.0 I suppose, since I just upgraded it a month ago~
    Here is my screenshot. It appears like this after the loading:

  • New user of Firefox. Webpage I made not displaying correctly in Firefox but OK in Win IE. Why is this?

    Im new to Firefox. Just found out the website Im maintaining does not display correctly with Firefox but OK with Win IE. Why is this?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    I'm going to make a prediction here:
    The webpage will contain a lot of code written specifically to the non-standards compliant way IE works, and will also "not display correctly" in the following standards compliant browsers:
    Chrome
    Safari
    Opera
    and the solution will be to code the pages according to the standards meant to be followed so it displays correctly in all non-IE browsers, '''then''' see how it displays in IE.

  • When my most front window is a safari one and I use the shortcut key "Command N", it opens a new finder window and a new safari window at the same time. Why does it happen?

    Open the General tab of the Safari preferences and correct the home page; the default page is this one. If it has become set to a folder on an FTP server or a local drive, that request will be sent to the Finder. (28252)

  • Only one track is downloaded per album on itunes on my iphone 5. Every time I download a new track it deletes the previously downloaded track on that album. Why is this happening and how can I switch it off?

    Most YouTube content requires the Flash plugin. Sometimes it's necessary to uninstall then reinstall that plugin.
    Uninstall the Flash plugin then reinstall new >  Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
    Very important to uninstall the currently installed plugin first.
    Now launch Safari and try a video.
    If you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
    And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to:  Open in 32 bit mode  is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.
    You may also need to delete the cache associated with Safari .
    Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy/paste:   ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari
    Click Go the move the Cache.db file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch Safari. Try a video.

  • HT5275 Why did this update eliminate Safari's RSS reader function? Grrrrr.

    So, I have a number of RSS sources in a folder titled "News" in my bookmarks bar. I select it and am able to either go to individual RSS source or "View All RSS Sources" (which I use all the time) or open all in tabs (this one's not a good idea!). After updating, the "View All RSS Sources" is gone as Safari no longer has an RSS reader function. Too bad (and I really mean that!) and seemingly unaccounted for if I call APple for assistance... just "No Safari RSS reader in the update. Oh, and there's no way to go back!"
    I use  "View All RSS Sources" twice daily (at least) because it is adjustable... my list is sorted by Unread, and it highlights those. Very convenient! An excellent function... no in the dumpster! Grrrrrrrr!
    Anyway, now I cannot do this function on my MBP w/Mtn Lion (update to Safari included in the update to Lion) or on my Mac Pro w/Lion (I updated Safari automatically, then found the "improvement"). So now my mini is not going to be updated until I am able to find an outside app that'll give me this function back. And no more buying upgraded minis, either. Grrrr.
    Anyway, anybody know why the function was removed in the update?
    ADDED POST POSTING: it appears I've lost spellcheck while using an outdated version of Safari  

    Hi,
    Another thing you can try is this:
    - Quit Safari
    - Open up a Terminal window (via Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal.app)
    - Type <pre>dscacheutil -flushcache</pre> and then press the Return key
    - Restart Safari
    What that does is flush the local DNS cache on your machine. DNS is how computers convert human-readable names (i.e. www.apple.com) into IP addresses (17.112.152.32) that computer networks use to resolve machine locations.
    No guarantees this will work, but it's worth a shot.

  • Why this new version of iTunes doesn't have Album Art or It didn't show up?

    Why this new version of iTunes doesn't have Album Art or It didn't show up?
    Also, in my iPod Touch 4th, it erase all album art from my iPod, then i tried to put again a new Album Art, ...download again from the image sites and still ...it didn't show up.? What a waste!
    I waste all my time to set all album art on my iPod, then it just gone. kindly pls fix this issue. hate this new version of iTunes, so complicated.
    The first thing i saw after i install new version of iTunes, it showed only music files. I don't know where to look for the old version of Sidebar. I keep on trying to look for it where I can see or any sign off button just to show up this stupid SideBar. Also, why i couldn't find? The "Menu Bar" is also hide!
    Until i found out in "View" tab. Then i saw the Show Sidebar. Question? why do you need to hide that Side Bar? For what?. it is so so so complicated specially to those people who can't relate for this. (Also the button (from previous iTunes) to show the Album Art, now it's gone. I check every Tab, but there's no way to see the Album Art.)
    Another comment. I download also some of my songs to my iPod, I wasted my time to collect all of my favorite music files. Also some are came from CD's and friends. I had all that favorite music in my iPod. Then the version iOS 5.+ came then I updated my iPod, another options to save files (iCloud) but I think there are something that I MISS about updating my iPod. Then suddenly I checked my iPod... all music (with Album Arts) are gone. All Apps are Gone. Videos as well.
    If you don't know how to use that iCloud (with only 5GB storage), you'll gonna miss/lost everything.
    Then I start all over again, i still have my BACK UP, good to have that. Now it's all set until I update the latest iOS 6. And another version of iTunes.
    Then I realized my computer getting slow. I uninstalled it. My laptop started to work fast again. Then I download again the iTunes. So now I know, it has the ability to slow my computer. Everytime I turn on my iTunes, it hang. (Not Responding). Solution... CTRL+ALT+DELETE. Then every second time to open the iTunes, and it works. (it means, to open iTunes, need twice)
    Then suddenly my laptop is not working. All my files has been corrupted. My Hard drive doesn't work properly. Now I don't have any stupid BACK UPs. My music files usage is 18 GB, only contacts, documents, notes, or some other files that can only fit to your "iCloud" not my 18GB music files and other photos. Your solution is to BUY more storage. Another COST! Another wasting time to set everything then need to pay more?
    If you let your unit (iPod,iPhone,iPad) to export music to PC, or any mini SDcard to use as storage, it won't happen.
    There is another....
    It has Bluetooth, right?
    Use less! Doesn't work. There's no way to use it.
    All I need is to install an application to use your bluetooth. (for same unit or Apple unit only). And pictures only can send via Bluetooth if you an application.
    Even if you go to "Photos" check if there's a way to send pictures? there is no way to send via Bluetooth, even Photos, Songs.etc. It can't even share some other friends (even they have own iPad, iPod, iPhone or same products) who has a unit with Bluetooth.
    And the last.. only one port. there's no way to watch videos through HDMI. No HDMI port, no SD or any card slot. Must to buy their products.
    Very costly!
    I know (like iPod) it's very friendly to use it, but you  must spend more money first before it can use.

    Yes, the old album art view is gone, bu you can see the album art for a song that's playing by clicking on the art image and it will open a bigger view.
    Everything else in your post is a waste. I'm not going to spend time reading it. If - and I repeat if, you have a question on how to get the best out of the new look iTunes, post it. But don't spend your time in long rambling negative rants.

  • I've noticed on my new ipad 4 that many images when on the Internet are blurred and low resolution why is this? Because if you go on apples website everything is crystal clear????

    When using my new ipad 4 retina display when on the Internet many of the images are blurry or low resolution? But if you go on apples website everything is crystal clear?? Why is this?

    Ebay images look fine on mine. Image zoom doesn't work, but that's not suprising. I also support a number of public and private websites wth a number of images (some pretty large). Those look fine as well. If the Apple website looks good, there is no raeson other sites shouldn't as well.
    For eBay specifically, I'd recommend using its app, but in general, you could try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the iPad shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the iPad back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.

  • I have a 2 different .me e-mail accounts I was able to use one in my new mac but I can't create the other. Why is this happening? What can I do to enable de second one.

    Hi, my wife has 2 different .me e-mail accounts. She uses one of them on her old mac-mini, that account was .mac and then updated to .me, and so she sends and gets mail there. Now she a new mac mini and she is using her second .me account on the new mac but when I try to open (create) other it won't let me. In other words she wants both of the accounts to be on the same computer (the new mac mini) since she wants to to sell the old one. I don't have much experience with Mac and all this ID thing has me confused. Why is this happening? What can I do to enable de second mail account on the same computer?
