Hello, I’m having trouble accessing a website (through safari and google chrome) on my iPhone, iPad, and MacBook Air. When trying to access this website it reads “Not Found.” For reference, on my iPhone 14 Pro it doesn’t load, but works for another iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 13 using the same wifi. Additionally, on the devices that don’t load the website, a VPN fixes the problem. I’m trying to fix this problem without using a VPN, any solutions?

This is the most annoying thing, i cant delete any of the tab groups and the isnt any reset button .....

I was in this group chat on Instagram, I was gonna like someone’s message about a topic someone brought up when all of a sudden this website was brought up, my finger, already in motion clicked the link instead of the text, and I entered this website, I didn’t click anything and immediately left after 4 seconds tops, I took this screen shot along the way, it looks very sketchy and seems to be a gore site, which makes this all worse, am I safe?

hi all, recently Safari on my MacBook air has been crashing more than usual and when I reopen the app all the windows (each with 10 tabs or so open) all go blank and are " untitled".

Normally if I noticed this straightaway, I just click on the history tab and re-open the recently closed windows and this usually works however on this occasion the list of recently closed are "untitled" as such, I cannot recover the windows

Luckily only one window was on private browsing, so I can scroll through my history for the past few weeks, and attempt to reopen over 60 tabs and divide them into windows

I was wondering if safari history saves windows as a whole or if it just saves the individual tabs you visited because this would save me a lot of stress

I've also seen similar threads where people recovered their old windows from their finder app but I seem to struggle to follow those instructions-i can see the SafariTabs.db, SafariTabs.db-shm, SafariTabs.db-wal files but I dont know how to open them because double clicking brings up an error message

also under recently closed, it just shows the most recent 25 windows/tabs-is there any way of going further back because I think I'd be able to access the windows that way, and finally, I wanted to ask if there was a way of detecting corrupted files in my Safari folder because someone mentioned on another thread that doing this prevented the Safari from constantly crashing, just that they couldn't remember the names of the files that the Apple support consultant told them to get rid of

When using Safari, if I right click on an image on a web page and choose "copy image" and then switch to somewhere to share the image and paste it pastes the image's URL not the bitmap itself. In Chrome, the same process will paste the bitmap image.
Is there no way in Safari to simply copy the image as a plain old image?

Sorry I know this is a much discussed topic but I did search for any way to restore this on Mac OS, and couldn't find one, is there anything you can help me with?

Chrome and Edge both have it. Why oh why is it so difficult on macOS!

Is there any way to automaticly refuse cookies ? I tryed to import "i don’t care about cookies" on adguard but it unfortunately didn’t work

I cannot find out why my safari has opening a new tab is cmd + option + shift + click link, instead of cmd + click link.

I am finding mixed documentation and really don't understand what is true.

i used to have like 10 tabs and all of them are gone. idk if its just because my device is a gen 6 apple product tho..

I wanted to visit this website that basically had like a Batman quiz thing, it was in the front page of google

I’ve been using the Arc browser for a while and thought I could recreate a similar experience in Safari using a combination of bookmarks and tab groups. So far, I have been able to achieve most of my use cases using Safari. It would be nice if I could make tab groups specific to profiles but I can live with that for now.

There is one bug in Safari that is preventing me from committing to it. If you are currently browsing a page in a tab group and click on an external link in email, Slack, etc it will ALWAYS open a new Safari window. I’ve tried the Focus workaround and I have my settings to always open links in tabs but none of those impact this behavior. I constantly end up with 3 windows of the same profile. This makes me wonder if Apple does any usability testing for Safari.

​

I’m trying to move to SafarI from Chrome on my iPhone but it’s driving me nuts that everything I want to do while browsing is 2 or 3 clicks on Safari versus 1 on Chrome.

I almost never add new bookmarks but it is one of the primary actions on the Safari toolbar. Conversely, I constantly open new tabs or close tabs but that requires several clicks on Safari.

If I could swap the bookmark button for a “+” button to open a new tab I could live with Safari.

Why has the world allowed the EU's GDPR to destroy the internet?

The EU's population is less than 10% of world's population.

Yet, because of the EU, the entire world suffers from a horrible and sub-par internet experience for years already. The cookie pop ups waste time, lower productivity and most of people click on 'agree' anyway. They literally liter every website, especially on mobile phones.

So should we really believe EU cares so much about our privacy??

The GDPR rule is coming from the same countries that have thousands of cameras everywhere on the streets, on the road, where exceeding speed by 1km/h will land you a huge fine, where you're not supposed to approach and compliment people of opposite sex cause that's called 'sexual harassment' and where you're under surveillance litterally everywhere. The phones are tracked, listened and after finishing a conversation with a friend talking about cars, be sure to have 1.000 car ads on Facebook/Instagram etc. Yet somehow the cookie ads that are tracking us are the problem. They're the real enemy 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

I don't care about the EU, let their citizens suffer the rules of whom they elected or revolt against it, but what about the rest of the world?

Why are we all subject to this crap and how come there couldn't be a provision that requests cookie consents only from EU-based IP addresses?

Your opinions and alternative solutions on the matter.

Does anyone have a fix for this?

I have *some* iPhone users who cannot open links to my website in Safari. Clicks from emails and even a site search via Google gives the "cannot decode raw data" error when trying to open the website. It opens fine for them in other browsers like Chrome though.

I have not been able to replicate the issue at all. Every iPhone device I have checked on, including my web hosting support, reports the site opening fine via iOS 17.4.1 + Safari with no issues whatsoever.

Someone suggested an incompatibility with Safari and gzip compression, however disabling gzip did not fix the error.

Any help would be *hugely* appreciated. (I won't post the url publicly, but if you think you can assist please reach out via message)

Hey everyone,

I recently got a new Macbook M2 Air (2022) (my first Macbook also) and have been encountering an odd issue with the Safari browser. Every time I perform a Google search and try to click on a search result, the first click doesn't seem to register. However, the second click works fine. This problem is specific to Safari; I've tested other browsers like Firefox, Brave, and Chrome, and they don't have this issue. I thought the issue was caused by the installed extensions but apparently not because even after I removed them the problem still persists. Since I lack a mouse, I use the trackpad and have Tap to Click on.

My Safari version is 17.2, and my Macbook's operating system is Sonoma 14.2. I'm curious if anyone else with a similar setup has experienced this problem. It's not a dealbreaker, but it's certainly annoying and I'd love to find a solution if one exists.

Thanks in advance for any insights or suggestions!

Here are the videos for demonstration:

Safari: Safari Failed to register first click on any google page

Firefox: Firefox

Brave: Brave

Chrome: Chrome

When I write a first letter of a website that i visited last time safari propposes that i visit this website and he write the website name with blue How can i turning of this thing

I wanted to give new reddit another try but it doesn't even let me log in. WTF?

Can anyone explain this? IE; I get an email saying 'so and so responded to your post,' so I click it and it loads and then halfway thru-------clunk. Stops. Cleared cache and cookies- no change.

Is anyone else having issues with Safari? I've notice it lagging since last night and into this morning. I've restarted my laptop and everything is up to date.

Wondering if anyone else is having problems or its just me?

As title says, specifically google will not let me log in. I am pressing the "Sign In" button and all it does it refresh the page with no sign in actually occurring. This is a Hugh issue as I cant use google properly. Anybody got a solution? I already turned off cross site tracking as well as cleared the cache.

how can I make the letters bold in the google questions ? (google form,google survey) I complain about this because i don’t have it but other iphones have it (same model as me Iphone 11 pro)
