Instagram will not load in Safari

[ninethirty]

Anyone know why this might be happening? When I load instagram, the page doesn't load properly and instead I just get a white page with the instagram logo in grey in the center of the page.

I use Wipr to block ads, but even if I completely turn it off in extensions and quit and reload Safari, same thing.

I don't know what else to do at this point. I've cleared website data, history, etc, I've tried restarting, nothing works. Any ideas?

try disabling content blockers (the gear icon on the top bar in safari). and did you clear the cookies? instagram works here in safari, as always.

Yeah, I'd previously done both. Still won't load.

reboot your modem/router? then your mac? or change your dns settings...

something's up, instagram works on both my macs in safari, always. & maybe someone else has an idea...

Do you have Private Relay enabled?

All of a sudden i got the same issue today, after updating to 12.2.1, just a blank screen and an insta grey logo in the center. On firefox works fine.

I am at 12.2, not 12.2.1: this morning Instagram loaded good, but around 4, I got the same screen you did.

Same happening here. Started around 4PM (Brazil/SP Time) and still got the same blank page with grey logo.

Started on Monterrey 12.2 and persists, even after updating to 12.2.1

Anyone knows how to fix this? Seems like and M1 issue, since 2 mates with M1 had this, and one with intel mac doesn't

Forgot to say instagram works well on Chrome, this only happens when using Safari

Same here (Germany), must've started in the last few days. Also on a 2020 M1 MBP with 12.2 and now 12.2.1.

Same here 12.2.1. if I quit Safari completely and then reopen Insta loads ok.

Check for any errors in the Javascript console. It can be activated by:

enabling the Develop menu under Safari -> Preferences -> Advanced -> 'Show Develop menu in menu bar'
Then Develop -> Show Javascript console

It may give a clue as to what is happening

Now 8 hours later (Mac was on Sleep during the time) it magically works again.

The JavaScript console didn't show any errors when it didn't work, by the way.

Both MacBook Air and the 16-inch MacBook Pro have recovered and good to go … except for when I like something, the heart turns red, but sometime the count is not registered, but that is only a minor problem, and will be fixed, I would think

yep, works again in mac mini M1 and ipad...

Hi There, recently had the exact same problem with instagram, a week ago it was working fine and the website would load. Next hour I tried loading instagram but it does not load and ends up with a blank page with the logo in the centre. I have tried everything such as clearing data and cookies for safari and tried searching from different browers, this is not a wifi problem either as every other webiste works and loads except instagram. Can someone please help me figure out why this is happening? I have tried everything. Thank you

Similar issue here. Instagram loads, but when I try to log in (with the correct password saved in Safari), I get the following error message in red: "There was a problem logging you into Instagram. Please try again soon."

This happens only in Safari. If I switch to Firefox (which I don't prefer), I can log in to Instagram.

I've tried disabling all extensions, and Private Relay is off. This is nuts.

Instagram won't load links from other websites - I get a flash of Instagram then it redirects and I get a blank screen. It's frustrating as am developing website and need to check links - again only happens with Safari.

I made a new thread on Mac Community https://discussions.apple.com/thread/254411847

I too cleared all caches, history and disabled content blocker. Instagram itself loads and I discovered that Safari will only load links to other Instagram accounts IF I am logged into instagram.
