Intel Mac :: Safari Very Slow After Upgrade To Lion?
May 25, 2012
Ive recently upgraded my Imac to Snow Leopard and then to Lion. The mac seems to take a long time to boot up now and starting any application is not as rapid as before the upgrades.Also, browsing the net thru Safari is painfully slow.. (alsp very very slow in Firefox) I've alredy done a disk utility verify and repair and the Mac HD repaired OK.. Ive since re-booted and still have all the same issues?

Ever since I updated to the latest version of Safari, it has been very slow loading webpages and is also a great memory hog. I have been using Firefox (now) and don't have these problems, but I would prefer to use Safari if it will work.

I recently upgraded my Safari version to 5.1.5 (not sure what it was earlier) - post that update, many websites (eg Gmail) have become exceedingly slow. They load on the Mac and then the final page takes ages to show. The internet connection is fine (my iPad loads them perfectly still) and I've cleared the cache and reset Safari but to no avail.

I just want to let you know that I am really thankful for your help.
This is a 3-year old iMac version 10.4.11
I upgraded Safari as recommended a few days ago, and since then, Safari has not worked at all. At the same time, I was warned that my startup disk was full. Following the advice from some other mac help sites, I cleared the copies of my iTunes library to free space. I now have 6.72 Gigs of free space on my hard drive, but my computer is still running super slow. Just about every other thing I click on in Firefox gives me the rainbow wheel.
I ran Techtools and everything passed but the Directory Scan and Volume Structure.
As soon as a friend can loan me a hard drive, I was planning on backing up everything and re-installing. Is this the best thing to do, or is there something else to try first?

System alerts that I have upgrades. These are always an upgrade to OS X and Safari. The system will start the download but never finishes, therefore I have to reboot or cancel the download.

Safari has become very slow across all user profiles. I have tried adding suggested DNS entries, clearing cache, history with no changes.
Safari is version 5.0.6 and has been downloaded and reinstalled - other than switch to Firefox.

I've been having a problem with Safari for the past few months it frequently freezes when loading web pages, sometimes it will eventually load, other times it wont. the blue progress bar in the address bar stops on about 10% with a plain white page it doesn't happen all the time but disturbingly it happens on pages as simple as Google search, not just data heavy sites. other symptoms include having to click links several times to get them to respond and I get the you are not connected to the Internet page when I go to some sites only to try another page from my bookmarks and it will load perfectly.

After the last software update, Safari has been acting strange. It slowed down enormously (I keep on getting the colored beach ball) and it freezes many times for lots of seconds.

Since I upgraded to OS X 10.7.3, Safari won't stay connected to the internet, if I am away from the keyboard for more than 120 seconds. My laptop (same operating system, & WiFi network) does not suffer this same problem.

Last week my hard drive broke (with Snow Leopard) and I brought my macbook pro to an Apple Store, the HD was totally broken and they couldn't restore any data. They installed a new hard drive with Lion, when I got home I restored my data with Time Machine, but now Safari and VLC aren't responding, Safari opens but that's it and VLC doesn't even opens. Also the CPU of VLC and Webprocess gets to 100 %.

Ever since upgrading to OSX 10.7.4, Safari has been very slow loading websites that normally are very fast. When I open Safari or load a page I get the spinning ball for as long as fifteen seconds. This is especially problematic when I initially open Safari in the morning after my iMac has been asleep for several hours.

Trying to view a YourTube video on a new current iMac running 10.7.4.Video is embedded in site that I administer, so I need to check the link when I update. Get the dreaded " This video is currently unavailable" tag.The video played fine before the Safari 5.1.7 update, and plays fine on my Air and on my iPod.No other updates or software changes - only the Safari update. So the Safari upgrade broke the part where the browser identifies itself to YouTube so I get the HTML feed instead of Flash?No Flash loaded on this iMac, ever.

I have an iMac model identifier 9.1, with Mac OS X v10.5.8 and safari version 5.0.6. All programs are running normally (fast) except safari. When I try to load webpages it takes about 11 seconds to fully load. All other computers in my house are connected to the same internet and running fine. What do I do to make the loading faster?

I am currently running version 10.7.4 from what I read and what I was able to make out from my serial number I wont be able to upgrade from Lion to Mountain Lion as it says my imac is a late 2006 model.I am just curious if I am able to run Lion why Apple isnt supporting the older models that can? Seems odd to me and it is not in my budget to buy a new mac and my current one is running perfectly. I'm not sure how much I will miss out not having Mountain Lion.

My iMAC is about 18 month old, and I had a software upgrade notification for my Safari browser.When I clicked on it to upload, a program from dll.ultimatesoft was seen on the screen, and asked me to approve and install. That message will not go away. The drop down box bounces up and down the screen. I re-booted, but it is locked. I tried typing in a different web address, and was semi-successful, till the ultimatesoft screen took over again in 60 seconds.

After installing OS X Lion on my Imac (middle 2007)
start up is very slow. Screen stays white with grey progress bar very slow to complete.
Then, after maybe 15 minutes, the desk screen appears and the Imac seems to work normally. I had upgraded the RAM to 3 Go before installing OS X Lion.
