I've been dealing with this problem for a couple of weeks now. I run OS X Lion 10.7.5 and over the past few weeks certain random websites will begin to load, and then crash all my web browsers. I have tried Safari, Chrome, and FireFox and the same sites pose the same issues. The main site to cause my problems right now is Etsy.com. Could I somehow be infected with a virus or malware?
View 1 RepliesMy mom and I have the exact same Macbook Pros (10.6.5) but while mine works perfectly, her browsers crash all the time. She's tried, Safari, Firefox and Chrome. We are connected to the same internet so we know it's not a problem with that.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHello. Has anyone consistently experienced web browser crashes with both Firefox and Safari whereby you are scrolling down a page using 2 fingers and the trackpad. I was blaming Flash but it is happening all the time with even static pages!
Has anyone got any ideas or fixes or indeed is anyone else experiencing this?
I just got a new macbook air with SSD, 8gb memory... it was running fine all last week but this morning I'm getting all sorts of memory errors and page load problems across all browsers. I haven't installed/uninstalled anything and haven't changed any system settings recently. Some pages load fine, both others load without stylesheets, others time out, and others throw memory errors:
Chrome:Error 13 (net::ERR_OUT_OF_MEMORY): Unknown error. Safari:(NSPOSIXErrorDomain:12)
I have noticed that several of my browsers (Chome v36, Firefox, Opera) are unable to display web pages. Safari sometimes shows pages, but mostly displays them as blank. On the other hand, Chrome Canary and Epic browser seem to display web pages without a problem. I have attached screenshots of what some of these error messages say.

i am seriously having problem with my browsers.every time i go to like for say the main page of youtube, or someones myspace page firefox and safari stop responding (try going to it on either). then i try opera and i can't even view it, but it doesn't crash, because i can't figure out how to get the latest flash player. im thinking flash might be doing something to both browsers. i mean its getting ridiculous im talking about close to 25 stop responding from both browsers today alone. its been like this for a couple days.

cause the browsers to crash. i have tried on safari, firefox, flock, and camino and they all crash on all the above sites and many others.
however, netflix watch it now, south park studios and ebay and other sites run without any problems.
this happens on all accounts on the computer which is less than one month old, up to date on all updates for mac os x, and adobe flash.
macbook, running osx 10.6.2, 4gb ram. up to date.
some websites crash on all browsers
I have a macbook pro and I have the OS X lion installed with all the latest updates to Safari etc. Lately my browsers have been acting up.
While I can access a lot of websites on my Safari there are other sites which do not load and I get the spinning beach ball before Safari crashes. My Safari also seems to take longer to load.
I have the latest Firefox 12 installed. When that starts up on the home page it crashes straight away after the obligatory spinning beach ball. I tried to trouble shoot Firefox but it wouldn't even open in safe mode before it crashed.
I also have Opera which doesn't even start up. So I uninstalled and upgraded to Opera Next. It doesn't even start up!
I have checked for plug in issues. I have up to date adobe flash player and java - unless there is some issue there. I also checked my DNS and it seemed clean of trojans. But I could or may have overlooked something.
I did use 'onyx' to clean my files but the trouble began before I used it. So now I am at a loss to understand why I am having problems with my browsers.
I'm not very technical but I have done my best to follow various threads around here to dismiss obvious causes.

This started occuring very suddenly for the past week or so. I especially cant load anything related to google. Not even youtube. No matter the connection, wired or wireless, different networks, or the web broswer. How do I fix this!?

About a week ago my Mac started loading webpages very slowly (CNN would take over 5 minutes to load). I have downloaded and occasionally use Firefox and it had the same problem.
I checked my internet connection and everything seems fine, my other computer (its a PC) is connecting just fine and loading webpages at the usual speeds.
I found online some instructions regarding Safari loading webpages slow they involved deleting the cache, and then deleting a few .plist files in the library. This seems to work, but with a day or so the problem comes back. Does anyone know what could be causing this problem?

All of my browsers keep freezing up after 5 minutes or so of use. The time amount is very random really. This is true for firefox, chrome, camino, and I think safari. After I quit I usually have to force quit and trying to reopen brings the "already open" error.I know to delete .parentlock to restart but they just freeze again. Not sure if it's my recent OS update or something else. All broswers are up to date.

I bought my MacBook Pro 13" 2.4 GHz in late April (new version). I have no added third party software. Everything worked fine until I did the Safari 5 update. Then web pages would freeze when opening for about 3-5 seconds. Then the page would finish opening.
I have also updated OS X to 10.6.4 after this started happening. It did not correct the problem. I experienced this at several locations, including the Apple store when doing one-to-one classes, so I know it's not a problem with my ISP.
I have recently noticed both my browsers (safari and firefox) are running slow, they seem to lag and I get the loading dial up with just general browsing. My other apps CS5, VMware etc are running fine.

I just noticed that my umbp is kind of slow. For example, safari used to load up less than a second. Now it takes about two to four bounces. Then, it will take 1 second to start up. On Firefox, it usually takes 5 to 6 bounces to start up as well. Could there be a lot going on through my activity monitor?

View 4 Replies View RelatedSo this is a problem that's been bugging me for half a year or so. Usually, I start up a video on Youtube or the like and for about 2-3 minutes it runs smoothly, but after that, the audio skips a bit (kind of like a record skipping) and the RAM spikes. After the hiccup, it tends to run normally, but after a few seconds, it'll skip again and occasionally, the audio will degrade and all audio played back through the browser sounds heavily distorted until I restart.
I used to run Firefox, but when this problem popped up, I would get this:
so I switched to Opera, which worked for a little while, but the problem came back. I tried Safari and Chrome, but it's still there.

My MBP is set to go to sleep after 1 hour of no activity, the problem lies when I wake it back up and log back in (corporate network), every browser, Safari, Firefox, Chrome, all display a blank page, Firefox goes offline as part of this process, and when the wifi comes back online, (Telling Firefox to go back online) I have to refresh every browser and every tab to get my content back, very frustrating. Chrome displays a page that says "Unable to connect to the Internet" Why do the browsers have to go blank? Why dont they just sit dormant so I can come back to them?

Howdy -- I've been having some problems with a 2010 MBP. Some very hard crashes along with a lot of slowdowns and spinning discs while using the various browsers (usually some combination of Safari, Chrome & Firefox)... I ofren have M'soft Word open as well.
In some crashes, the cursor still works but that's it. Nothing else on the screen responds or reacts and I eventually have to hold down the power button. I'm using Lion, but I did exeperience some of these problems before ugrading.

I have, what seems to be a common, an issue with pop up tabs regularly appearing across all browsers advertising 'MacKeeper'. I understand this is a trojan or malware.
I have tried to combat the problem by removing various files as suggested on other threads, removed extensions from my browsers, and today re installed OS X on the recommendation of Apple's online chat team, but am still experiencing the issue.

My White MacBook 4,1 (summer 2008) has recently started to have big problems when I watch on-line video from within a browser. What happens is:
-Launch browser (same behaviour with Firefox, Safari, Opera)
-Watch video
-Video behaviour gets jumpy
-Spinning pizza wheel arrives
-Browser crashes
I have tried a reinstalling Snow Leopard, disabling the browser add-ons, running the browsers in safe mode and I get the same pattern of results. I guess it is a hardware fault but I do not know how to identify the fault. System Profiler tells me my RAM status is "OK" and there are no obvious faults anywhere else in system profiler.
