Safari seems to hang up

[isukgolf]

In the last 2-3 days, on my MacBook, the sandtrap forum tab hangs up ... Others tabs from other sites function normally. It seems to occur on threads with video. Any kown issues? Thoughts/suggestions? Currently I kill the tab, or exit safari completely.

No problems here. What version(s) of Safari and the OS?

version 8.0.5 of safari the OS is 10.10.3 May try the chrome browser to see if the problem follows ... I am a relatively new mac user, so I might have created my own issue somehow.

Not sure. You could try clearing the cache but it should be fine. Try that: log out, clear the cache, and log in. See if that works.

Thanks I will give that a try by clearing cache in Safari. Jumped on the chrome browser and it is flying ... so must be my safari only. Oddly my ipad is slow in safari as well. Thanks again.

I had problems with Safari on my iPhone and wife's iPhone as well.. I now use chrome exclusively to ready and reply on TST on my iPhone.. I started a thread about it, but no one else had any issues... It might just be one offs of some sort..

He's not talking about his iPhone.

When I upgraded to 10.10.3 on my MacBook Air, the next few days were incredibly slow for Safari.  I also accepted to upgrade to Photos from iPhoto around then. Doubt that's related, but possible.

Since Safari was basically unusable after trying various things (on other apple support threads than the one above- which included clearing cache, etc)- no improvement.  It seemed to give me the spinning wheel every 5 web page requests or so. But if I stuck the cursor in the address bar and hit Enter, the web page would come right up.

I installed Chrome, and it worked lightning fast. The same page 100% fast on Chrome.  About 80% fast on Safari.  Those 20% were slow pages, and would usually load fast if I re-initiated the request.  Drove me nuts.

A few days after shifting to Chrome, I tried Safari, and it was fast again. No fix on my end.  I think another guy in an Apple Support thread said the same thing. A few days of intermittent slowness after the upgrade- then fast again.

BTW, I'm the RandallT3434343 name listed in the apple thread above.

@RandallT I am waiting the few days out I experienced almost exactly what you said ... chrome is behaving nicely now, but will try Safari again. Thanks for sharing your experience
