Why will safari not stop reloading?

i am running safari 5.7.1 on windows 8.1 and it won't stop reloading webpages every time i go to one (all webpages in general). any help?

FYI .. Apple does not support Safari for Windows anymore > Apple apparently kills Windows PC support in Safari
You're better off using IE or Chrome.

Why will Safari not open with the homepage that I marked even after marking it in Safari preferences?

Might be corrupted Safari preferences ...
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type of copy paste the following:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
Click Go then move the com.apple.Safari.plist file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari and try setting your hompeage.

Why will safari not load web pages with the prefix "fhp"?

Why will safari not load web pages with the prefix "fhp"?

Because it doesn't recognise them as valid addresses - just as the error message says.
Firefox is similar : Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (fhp) isn't associated with any program.
Where are you seeing this problem ?.

Why will Safari not play MP3s embedded in my iWeb pages when Firefox can?

One would have thought that if iWeb was going to get picky over the scenarios in which it would behave correctly, it would favour Apple-centric enviroments. But this doesn't appear to be the case when building an iWeb site with embedded MP3 files.
The published site behaves perfectly when viewed in Firefox and yes, even IE's latest incarnation. Files may take a while to download but they play when the download has finished. Safari is a different story. The MP3 files embedded in some pages simply will not play when viewed with Safari.
This page in particular has never worked in Safari -

A small blue questionmark appears instead of the 'Play' button.
Any workarounds or is it just the case that Safari and iWeb are incompatible on this fundamental point???

Well it looks as though I answered my own question. A Google search revelas that Safari has had over 2 years' history of reported problems with the mp3 format -
http://www.google.co.uk/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=safari+wont+play+mp3&ie=UT F-8&oe=UTF-8&redir_esc=&ei=nkulT9_wA82g8gOPj8ntBA
- and the solution is... STOP USING MP3 FILES
Yes, mp3 format is out, mp4 format is in. SO I'll need to upload MP4 versions of my audio files and then retry.

Apple TV is requesting payment verification constantly, even after it has been confirmed multiple times, why will this not stop?

Apple TV has gone off the deep end and is constantly asking me to re-verify my paymetn info... I do it time and time again and the message never stops. It pops up alomst anytime I do anything... When I first got the apple TV I only had to do this occasionally... Now it asks multiple times a day... Any idea on how to make this stop??? To the point that I will start using another streaming device soon...

I have been able to eliminate the Verification Required problem. I believe the thing that made the most improvement happened to be an OS update on the Mac where the home share lives, but it might also be the combination of trying many fixes. The Mac was already running the latest iTunes (10.7), but the my OS (OS X Lion, 10.7) was not patched all the way up to 10.7.5. I am not running Mountain Lion. My Mac is a Mini, 2 GHz Intel Core 2.
I applied the OS patches, after having changed my AppleID password (more complex) and payment method back and forth, and now with all of that done, the Verification Message has gone. I do, still, have the ATV saying it can't connect to the iTunes store frequently, but that message is not as frequent and as annoying as the constant Verification Required message. Note that my ATV showing the error message about "Can't connect to iTunes Store" is on Ethernet and I believe that there is a bug with the ATV update that pertains to Ethernet connectivity which is discussed in the Support Forums on other threads (one I can recall is MLB TV not working, look for MLB, Update, and Ethernet if you want to find that).
Summary of my personal experience to arrive at a fix for Verification Required:
iTunes on host Mac is up to date (10.7)
AppleID password is complex enough (it previously was not)
Payment method was changed away to another method and then re-established, re-confirmed to my Visa
Mac OS Lion was updated to latest patches, 10.7.5
Also, for what it's worth, my Mac is also on Ethernet and my switches are all new Linksys GB switches with the exception of my Linksys WiFi/Router which is only "switching" for WiFi users and connections off of the LAN to the internet.
Best of luck to all, here. This has been terribly frustrating, and lacking any official Apple participation or even clear, cut answers from the user community. I hope my experience helps someone. You may also contact me directly at my first name at my lastname dot com.
Sincerely,
Chris Adragna

Why will safari not load/open?

does not open. times out. what can I do to get it to work. other apps work fine, like chrome which I am using now.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

Why will Safari not launch Eudora when I click on an email link?

It used to work just fine. However, for about a month now, when I click on "send an email" at my Real Estate Board site, Safari is replaced by a white screen, then reverts back to the "send an email" page. Eudora doesn't launch. Mail doesn't launch. I have Internet Explorer for Mac installed as well, and it won't connect via my e-mail programs either.
I also run Virtual PC, and under it, Internet Explorer. The Windoze version still works.
What gives?

Let me restate my problem.
If I run Safari, click on the email link which should launch Eudora and open a "New Message" window, the screen goes white for a second and reverts back to the link screen but nothing happens. If I launch Eudora first, then in Safari click on the link, still nothing happens.
If I run Explorer for Mac v 5.2.3 it will neither launch Eudora nor open a New Message window if Eudora is already launched.
If I run FireFox, and I click on the link, Eudora will launch and a New Message window opens as it used to do in Safari.
I could really use some help here. Any ideas? Why should I have to use 3rd party browsers?

Trying to install update 8.1.3, my iPad says I need 1.5 gb but I actually have 17.1 gb. Why will it not let me install?

Trying to install update 8.1.3, my iPad says I need 1.5 gb but I actually have 17.1 gb. Why will it not let me install?

It's probably telling you that you need 1.5 more GB than you have available. Hook up your device to iTunes on the computer you sync with and do the update from there. OTA updates require a lot more memory than ones done via iTunes.
Cheers,

Hi Friend,
Do you set all the email information correctly?
Can you send/receive emails? If you are often receiving a message on the screen like "cannot contact the server...", check in Settings >> Mail, Contacts, Calendars >> "your name account", if all the fields are filled properly.
You must also turn off Restrictions in: Settings >> General >> Restrictions, because have an option " Allow Alterations - Accounts" that it maybe prevent alterations in your email account.
Hope it will be helpful

Why will PDF not open from email?

I recently modified my Adobe Reader 9.1 (with instructions from the bank) to be able to electronically sign documents.
Since then I can not open any PDF documents from email. I went back and reversed the changes I made. I uninstalled Adobe and reinstalled it. No luck.
I have to save the documents and open them from Windows Explorer.
Any Ideas?

A fast workaround for PDF problem (See my original post)
In Firefox:
Open Tools > Options > Under Main tab click Save files to > click Browse
Scroll up or down to find where you want it to go (I put mine under Documents because it's the easiest to find).
Click New folder and label it something you will quickly recognize.
Now when you click on a PDF attachment it will automatically be sent to that file and you can double click or open
it in Adobe Reader
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(Note) If I use Internet Explorer (I have not used IE in years) I can open PDF's from Hotmail with out a problem.
I like Firefox better so I will continue to use the quick workaround until somebody finds a fix.
If you use IE, here are the instructions for saving PDF files.
Click
to open Windows Mail.
Open a message that contains an attachment by double-clicking it
in the message list.
In the message window, click the File menu,
and then click Save Attachments.
Select the folder where you want to save the attachments.
By default,
Windows Mail saves attachments in your
Documents folder. If you want to save the attachments to a different folder,
click Browse, and then select a folder.
Select the attachments that you want to save, and then click Save.

Why will Apple notes will not sync. with iPod or iPad

Why will Apple notes not sysc with iPod or IPad from Mountain Lion?

IMAP is a type of e-mail account.
http://whatismyipaddress.com/imap
Apple says you can use an IMAP account to sync notes, but I haven't yet spotted how you set this up. iCloud is easy and free, though, and for me at least has worked quite well to sync my notes among all my devices.
