    Safari graphics problem?

    Hey everyone out there! Today I upgraded to Sierra (actually I performed a clean install on my SSD) on my iMac. Soon enough I noticed a graphics issue/bug when I minimize that very specific app (or when I open it up again from the Dock). I use genie effect for when I minimize or maximize so the...

    Disable YouTube 60 FPS (Force 30 FPS): Save battery and reduce YouTube CPU usage by 2-4x!

    This was inspired by the fact that my MacBook Pro 2010 uses over 100% CPU and starts lagging when trying to play 1080p60 videos on YouTube. Safari slows down, the video freezes, the audio glitches and the browser feels like it is going to crash, all while the "VTDecoderXPCService" process uses...

    Links open Safari but not the web address

    I have installed iOS10 on my iPad 4 - it all works well except for an odd behaviour with links. If, for example, I receive an email containing a link, tapping the link opens Safari but only to the home page. It doesn't load the website address. If I go back to the email and tap the link again...

    Safari pages reload after several minutes

    I'm constantly reading an article in safari and after a couple minutes the page refreshes and moves back to the top of the page. These are web pages that are not heavily loaded with media content and they are completely download at the time. But then maybe 4 or 5 minutes later, they refresh...

    Safari crashes every time I quit.

    I can't quit Safari without it crashing. It seems to work fine while I'm using it, but as soon as I try to quit, it stops responding and I have to do a force quit. Any ideas?

    Chronic Safari Behavior: Browser Does Not Fully Load Previous Session's Pages

    Hi experts, I'm trying to understand why, after restarting Safari, a previous session's pages do not fully load so that you can see the preview in the dock. It's only after you activate the page that the full page loads. As long as I've known, Safari has behaved this way, and I'm trying to...

    Safari email attachment crash

    I'm trying to attach a file to an email using Safari on a Macbook Pro. Every time I try to attach a file whether it's on my AOL, Gmail or Yahoo account, Safari closes out right away. Tried emptying cache, removing all website data, rebooted the laptop.

    Safari vs Chrome Security and Privacy: Which is better?

    Safari vs Chrome Security and Privacy: Which is better? I am looking to see what people think about Safari (9 to 10+) and Chrome (Version 52+) in regards to security and privacy. But specifically on MacOS and not on iOS or Windows. I have yet to find a compelling article on comparing both. Thanks!

    Ubuntu Touch - Bookmarks?

    I’m thinking about switching from my iPhone 6 to an Ubuntu phone in a couple years if the iPhone 8 doesn’t have a headphone jack. I’d really like to have all of my bookmarks automatically synced between Safari on my Mac and either Chromium or some other browser on my Ubuntu phone. Is this...

    Safari is slower

    Ever since I updated to 10.11.6 (I believe that is the current version), websites that used to run smoothly end up freezing and I have to close the tab or if I can't, manually kill the process in Activity Monitor. Needless to say, ever since I updated to Yosemite, I noticed my machine takes 5-10...

    HTML5 Videos Won't Load in Safari

    I have a late-2013 iMac (pre-5K) that suddenly won't show embedded video in Safari, including YouTube videos. The problem is characterized by a black frame where the HTML5 player ought to be displayed. I can't swear to it, but I think this issue dates to the installation of 10.11.6. I do not...

    I have just finished a clean install of OS X 10.11.6 (El Cap) and macOS 10.12 Beta 4 (Sierra) on my MacBook Pro.

    Safari freezing with some Youtube videos

    Try playing this video and going into fullscreen more than once. Your mac will freeze up. youtube.com/watch?v=jwhFr5Ax3Fk Tried this with 2 macbooks in the Apple store, looks like a bug with Safari itself. The issue is fixed in MacOS Sierra, any chance Apple will fix this before that?
