I like to open up news websites to get my news. I find a story I am interested in and click the link and read the story. The problem is that when I return to the front page of that website, Safari immediately refreshes the page and makes me wait a few seconds before I can click on another link I was interested in. It is extremely annoying to have to wait for a refresh everytime I go back to the page. Seems a lot worse after the 5.1.7 update.
I will browse the internet, click back on a tab, and the site will refresh. Highly annoying for when you are streaming radio, music etc.If I am downloading, when the page refreshes, the download stops, so I have to start again.Â
Sometimes I will be using Safari, particularly on Facebook, and Safari will randomly start refreshing the pages repeatedly over and over again without me doing anything. Anyone else have this problem? Any way to keep it from happening again? The only way I can get it to stop is by quitting Safari completely.
Safari seems to refresh pages (especially when I'm logged in to Facebook), every so often (logging me out of social sites). It must be some kind of bug wherein Lion's Resume feature seem to get messed up.
My Mac (osx Lion) is constantly looking for wifi networks.I recently changed provider and have a new router and thought this may help but it the same. On a windows vista laptop I have I found a setting to alter how often the laptop looks for WiFi signal. Is there a setting on the mac that will do similar?Â
I'm already connected to a wi-fi and seeing as i'm on a desktop I don't think i'm going to be connecting to many others so how do I stop my AirPort card scanning for new networks constantly?
Why does my browser constantly have to stop playing when I watch You Tube or other videos?It stops and then starts up again after a few seconds and then stops again and re-starts.Happens on both Safari and Firefox.
Just did update to Safari 5.0 via software update. G4 Dual 867 OSX 10.5.8. Crashes every time I attempt to click on any link. Starts to connect, Beachball-crash. If left idle, without clicking any link, still crashes after less than a minute. Fixed permissions, re-installed with download from Apple site, permissions again..... no difference. Disabled Click to Flash, Ad Blocker...same thing. Just won't work!!!
After Latest update (security update) that came out not so long ago, my safari experience has gone from good to bad. I have crash on me at least twice a day. Anyone else had this? I noticed that it usually happens when I try to compose email on Gmail, when I press compose and enter my friends email press enter to select contact, after that the wheel starts spinning and then you get "Safari quit unexpectedly"
Does anyone else have this issue? Also my startup times started to get slower.
I upgraded to Safari 5.1.4 yesterday, and now about every 20-30 minutes, my web pages all reload. I will be in the middle of a transaction and the page will reload and I will lose whatever I was working on. If I have a tab that was logged into my email, the web page reloads and I have to re-login to my email account.I can't find any way to disable this and it's incredibly frustrating. I was in the midst of buying a plane ticket last night and the web page reloaded when I was in the middle of purchasing the ticket.It actually happened when I was trying to post this thread, and I had to rewrite the entire post again.
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 last night's Mac OS upgrade (I use Lion), the cursor in Safari is a constantly spinning beachball. How can I turn it back into an arrow? Safari is still working, by the way--but the beachball keeps spinning.
I have the 2013 15 inch retina Macbook Pro and I have been having a problem with it lately. Whenever I use safari, my browser is freezing constantly. Its is only when I use safari, not any other applications, such as Microsoft word. Normally, I wouldn't consider this a big issue, but it gets worse. When I don't navigate on my computer and let it rest for a minute or so (while running safari and sometimes other applications) this screen pops up:
I have not dropped my computer, nor done anything to cause any damage to it.

I upgraded to Flash Player 10 a few days ago, and since then both Safari and Firefox are crashing almost every time i visit a page with Flash. I have tried uninstalling flash and reinstalling a developer's copy of version 9 but the crashes continue.
I have read a lot of complaints about similar problems, but have not been able to find a solution or even an explanation as to why it's happening. So I don't know if it's a conflict with the latest version of Leopard (not Snow) or what.
Safari has been crashing for me every time I open it. It's mostly on sites like YouTube, which leads me to believe that it's a flash problem. When I open the page it just freezes up and the pinwheel just keeps spinning and spinning. I noticed these problems on my MacBook after I upgraded to Snow Leopard, and now they are arising again on my recently purchased Mac Pro (also running SL). I'm running latest version of SL, Safari, and Flash.
The safari loading wheel is constantly spinning when facebook is open...Software is all up to date (The macbook is only 1 day old) and I've tried rebooting.
Info:MacBook Air (13-inch, Mid 2012), Mac OS X (10.7.4)
Why safari doesn´t work well in Lion Mac OS X as on past versions as Snowleopard. Every time apears mesages talking about something like "the pages not respond" and all my mac seem frezze a lot.Â
Info: MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.4), Safari does not work fine
My 13" MacBook Air Mid-2011 Version currently running Mac OS X 10.7.3. Is constantly overheating and the fan is constantly loud. The fan is around 5500rpm even when I am not doing anything on it or even when it is off.
i was just wondering when does apple usually do the laptop refresh with new hardware etc?
I am asking because my current macbook, is causing me issues and I don't want to buy a MBP now if the laptops are going to be refreshed in a few months
My desktop keeps refreshing automatically. Even if I'm not doing anything on it, after about 1 minute, all of the icons will disappear then they all apear again like nothing happend. Nothing else seems affected by this, but if I have a Finder window open, it gets closed. When I am on another program and when it refreshes, it brings me onto the finder instead of program I am on, which gets annoying after a while. If I am trying to copy some files on the finder (like from one folder to another), when it refreshes, it stops the copying.
About every minute or two, Finder refreshes all it's windows, and bring them all to the front. It also resets whatever I'm trying to do with finder as well. If I close all the windows, they all open again in their original arrangement. I've tried restarting. This is what console.log says
