MN making safari crash?

620 replies

DishwasherDogs · 17/03/2015 10:27

Every time I have been on Mn this morning it keeps crashing safari.
It doesn't do it on any other website.
I'm using an iPad.
Any ideas what's going on or how I can fix it?

Lol, then it crashed when I posted that ^

MarthaMonkeynuts · 28/03/2015 09:21

Seems to have stopped for me now (I am on IOS 7) on ipad on mumsnet, still getting it on facebook though. Pleased to be able to MN this weekend though!

Mine has for about 4 weeks

SomeSortOfDeliciousBiscuit · 27/03/2015 23:17

I have a confession: I thought I had the latest update, but I didn't.

I'm now running ios 8.2 on an ipad2 and the crashing issue has resolved, but loading time seems significantly longer and sometimes the page stops halfway with the talk banners enlarged, just like before.

MissMuffetisin · 27/03/2015 20:28

Still happening. V irritating. Sort it mumsnet or I'm off to net mums !

Whatneedstobedone · 27/03/2015 13:24

Yes, still happening here too - around once every two to three clicks. Maddening.

This is so annoying!

Only on ipad, only on mumsnet and has occurred for well over a week.

Behooven · 26/03/2015 22:55

Just mumsnet for me.

Sooooo frustrating

My bad jou jou continues....I'm crashing crashing..I've got the Thursday Crashing Bluessssssss...

Whatneedstobedone · 26/03/2015 20:02

It's not just mumsnet! I thought it was but as I have had zillions of crashes on mumsnet on ipad in the last few days - but it's justdone it on the BBC website too for the first time. So frustrating. Seems to be affecting mumsnet much more than other sites though.

Koalafications · 26/03/2015 18:21

Sham I have found it that has stopped now that I have updated my iPad to the latest iOS software

Rosieposy4 · 26/03/2015 18:13

Still happening for me, and only on mumsnet. I use my iPad loads for work on a lot of different sites and none of them are crashing.

Hi again. We've been trying very hard to narrow down the criteria that triggers this bug in Safari, but alas it is still eluding us. We've had our resident iOS developer do some deeper analysis the exact moment Safari crashes and have used this information to submit a bug report to Apple. The bug ID is 20291294 for anybody who is interested and has access to the Apple developer site. It's definitely not isolated to Mumsnet, although of course that is no comfort to us. I will post again when we have more news.

RufusTheReindeer · 26/03/2015 08:52

Still crashing and I'm afraid to update the Ipad

Pain in the butt

LoxleyBarrett · 26/03/2015 07:23

Still happening on an IPad for me - iphone seems ok.

poorbuthappy · 26/03/2015 02:42

For some reason the back pain thread closes the app down in my phone!

OhIDoLikeToBeBeside · 26/03/2015 02:23

Dear Tech, in case it helps with diagnostics it is 0220 GMT and I have just been in the _chat thread about rat hammocks with no problems. Then went into the one about if you have a dog what breed is it and it has crashed it. Been happening for me on this thread all evening. Originally I thought he Doghouse militants had broken in to chat and sabotaged it Grin

bananayellow · 25/03/2015 23:32

And only mumsnet with me too.

bananayellow · 25/03/2015 23:30

Been happening on my iPad for the last 3 days. Driving me mad. Why has it only just started with me when it's been affecting others for ages, and why only on the iPad not the Apple Mac?

MsVestibule · 25/03/2015 21:35

Life has got in the way of me MNing as much as I usually do, but it is bloody annoying when I have tried to.

I'm often on the Guardian website and it hasn't happened once on there, or any other website I've been on. However, on MN, almost every time I've tried to open a thread, or click 'next' it's crashed.

I'm on an iphone5, 7.0.6

Tokelau · 25/03/2015 21:23

It still crashes every time I click on a new thread. Sad

SomeSortOfDeliciousBiscuit · 25/03/2015 21:10

If I open every. single. link. in a new tab, the crashing gets much more infrequent.

OwlCapone · 25/03/2015 20:54

I'm not a huge fan of it as a browser to use every day but MN doesn't crash on Puffin.

DragonsDoHiccup · 25/03/2015 20:48

I'm actually so hacked off I'm thinking of defecting to Nethuns. I haven't been there in 5 years when I on,y lasted 10 minutes before the pink got to me, and I triggered the swear filter 3 times....
