• Phone crashed, the photos have disappeared, phone has slowed to a crawl

  My phone crashed while taking a picture. Now the photos app shows 0 photos (should be) 6000 +, even if the application is still in 8 GB of space.

  I had this happened before and the pictures app would begin to repopulate. Now, this isn't the case and the rest of the phone is barely functional, everything is extremely slow and apps crashing.

  Looks like you're consuming a lot of storage of the iPhone.

  Check the settings > general > storage & use iCloud > Storage manage and make sure that you have absolutely no less than 10% of the total free storage of your device.

  Most likely, the solution will be to restore your iPhone as new and then very selectively add content since your last backup.  As has happened before, you have probably been run too close to capacity for some time.

  (I know there are discussions on the 'Slow Safari' theme, but it does not seem to mention the exact problem, I have experience.) Please let know me if I should delete this discussion for this)

  Hello. I dealt with this problem for the last month. Here's my problem and what I did:

  When I type 'New tab' in Safari, it takes forever (5-10 seconds) until the tab appears.

  When I click in the address bar (were I search in Google and put into the site, I want to go to the) I takes forever (5-10 seconds) before I can write something.

  So, what made a person with experience of the computer (I have a lot of experience of Windows. ('New' on OS X)? Uninstall the program (Safari) and re-install. But it does not work under OS X I have re-installed OS X El Capitan. The problem has been solved, Safari was fast again. But, the next day, same problem. First I thought it was a car (because this is the program ONLY I had installed other than the pre-installed applications). But it wasn't a disc. Then I if it were my installation of Bootcamp (had no idea why, but why not try some remove), so I formatted the drive around and re-installed OS X El Capitan again. Safari worked flawlessly, I could install a player, always worked perfectly.

  SO: When I got to my work and installed the printer I use, Safari was slow again (as described above). It is not sensible, but after I installed this printer, Safari was slow and train again. Go figure!

  And YES: I tried all, delete this and delete this (cache, history, cookies, off iCloud for Safari, disabled the settings in 'search', deleted several files in the library and system as suggested no multiple sites). He done for me...

  I don't want to change the browser, because I really like the Safari and it connects to my iPhone and iPad. Can anyone help?

• My safari has stopped working and will not charge

  My Safari has stopped working and will not reopen little matter how hard I try. I was told to paste some information on this forum.

  Try to open Safari in safe mode.  Make sure Safari is no longer running, the black dot in the icon on the Dock should not be visible.  Hold down the SHIFT key while clicking on the Safari icon.  If Safari loading, the problem is related to the third-party extensions or plugins.

• This morning when I started Firefox it shows my home page as screwed up as yesterday but Safari has shown as it should look like, what is wrong?

  I currently use version 3.6.24 Firefox on my PPC mac with 10.4.11 system. I use Firefox for many years without any problems. I received yesterday and on my screen to alert that there is a new update of Firefox available at the facility. I clicked on OK and the update started. When it's over, I checked and it's the same version, 3.6.24, I used and apparently nothing has changed until I went to my eBay site. Once on my site, I signed in and went to manage my Articles page. The page was different because normally it shows all the items, I have for sale and at the top of the list of points of sale are the three items to check and look at my listings, which I look at you, my profile and my alerts. When you click on one of them you are normally taken to another page. When I went there after apparent installation of the updated release of Firefox page showed my ads in a single column, my profile in another column and third column for my alerts all on one page. This is not normal. I got out and went to my home page which is http://www.rr.com/. Now it was different. Parts of the site have disappeared, the sections with the weather, news, and reviews. I thought it might be the site and then I launched Safari and went to the same page and it is normal. This morning when I started Firefox it shows my home page as screwed up as yesterday. Safari has shown as it should look like. I then started SeaMonkey and it showed the page as it should look like. I really like Firefox and I'd like to get it working again as it should. Would appreciate any suggestions. My email address is [email protected]

  You may need to use questions Troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode (click on "Safe Mode" and reading) to locate the problem. Firefox Safe mode is a diagnostic mode that disables Extensions and some other features of Firefox. If you are using a theme, place you in the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Modules > Themes before start Safe Mode. When you enter Safe Mode, do not check all the items in the window, just click "continue mode without failure." A test to see if the problem you are experiencing is fixed.

• Safari has been hijacked by ads (javascript)

  Safari has been hijacked by the ads. I rooted out launch launch demons, agents, deleted all the data of the Web site, additional extensions (adblock, clicktoflash, trafficlight) and the problem persists. The only thing that stops it is disable javascript, but it returns if I activate again. The words that should be plain html are converted into links Hypertext/rollover and they ALWAYS display an ad of "Top case" no matter where I click on the screen, they open an ad. I called Applesupport, and their only solution was to leave Javascript disabled or communicate with Java. But Java only pay support. Someone at - it suggestions? I'm at my wits end here.

  You may have installed ad-injecting malicious software ("adware").

  Do not use any type of product, "anti-virus" or "anti-malware" on a Mac. It is never necessary for her, and relying on it for protection makes you more vulnerable to attacks, not less.

  Save all data first.

  Some of the most common types of adware can be removed by following the instructions from Apple. But before you follow these instructions, you can try an automatic removal.

  If you are not already running the latest version of Mac OS X ("El Capitan"), update or upgrade in the App Store you could adware to automatically remove. If you are already using the latest version of El Capitan, you can still download the current update of the Apple Support downloads page and run it. Still, some types of malware will be deleted, not all. There is no such thing as the automatic removal of all possible malware, either by OS X third party software. That's why you can't rely on software to protect you.

  If the malware is deleted in your case, you will still need to make changes to the way you use your computer to protect you from new attacks. Ask if you need advice.

  If the malware is not automatically deleted, and you cannot remove yourself by following the instructions from Apple, see below.

  This simple procedure to detect any type of adware that I know. Disabling is a procedure distinct and better still.

  Some legitimate software is funded by advertising and may display advertisements in its own windows or in a web browser while it is running. It's not malware and it may not appear. In addition, some Web sites display advertising intrusive popup that can be confused with adware.

  If none of your web browsers work well enough to carry out these instructions, restart the computer in safe mode. Allows to temporarily disable the malware.

  Step 1

  Please triple - click on the line below on this page to select it, and then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination:

  ~/Library/LaunchAgents

  In the Finder, select

  Go ▹ go to the folder...

  from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + v press return. Open a folder named "LaunchAgents", or you will get a notice stating that the file cannot be found. If the file is not found, proceed to the next step.

  If the folder opens, press the combination of keys command-2 to select the display of the list, if it is not already selected. Please don't skip this step.

  There should be a column in the update Finder window. Click this title two times to sort the content by date with the most recent at the top. If necessary, enlarge the window so that all the content show.

  Follow the instructions in this support article under the heading "take a screenshot of a window." An image file with a name starting in 'Screenshot' should be saved to the desktop. Open the capture screen and make sure it is readable. If this isn't the case, capture a small part of the screen indicating that what needs to be shown.

  Start a reply to this message. Drag the image file in the editing window downloading. Alternatively, you can include text in the response.

  Leave the case open for now.

  Step 2

  Do as in step 1 with this line:

  /Library/LaunchAgents

  The record which can open up will have the same name but is not the same as in step 1. In this step, the folder does not exist.

  Step 3

  Repeat with this line:

  /Library/LaunchDaemons

  This time the file will be called "LaunchDaemons."

  Step 4

  Open Safari preferences window and select the tab 'Extensions'. If the extensions are listed, post a screenshot. If there are no extensions, or if you cannot launch Safari, skip this step.

  Step 5

  If you use Firefox or Chrome browser, open the list of extensions and do as in step 4.
