MN making safari crash?

620 replies

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?

In the interests of research only, I've just been over to the fluffy side. I moved about between pages, clicking as much as I could and it didn't crash once. The minute I come back onto MN it starts again.

How does Tech explain that?

Afternoon all. Not great news we're afraid, but just to keep you all updated, Tech are pretty sure this is a bug in Safari iOS rather than a bug with Mumsnet. They are continuing to investigate to see if there's anything that can be done, but it is something that's happening on other websites, too. We will update again if there is any further news. Apologies again for any inconvenience - we know it's really annoying.

Grrrrrrrr - keep losing the thread, literally !

I'm reading this thread, last crash was at 14.55 today. Got iOS 8.2 and latest Safari.

Also constantly reloads. Just MN.

Still crashing for me.

It's taken me three attempts to open this thread, it's driving me mad! Angry

Still happening. The pages aren't loading properly half the time either. The page gets really big so you can only see 'Talk' and 'Pregnancy' out of the banner on the top and the loading freezes.

This is incredibly frustrating.

Glad I found this thread as I thought it was my iPad getting old and laggy. It's very annoying and seems to happen when I try and view a new page. Please fix it as the app just isn't the same!

MN crashed at least 10 times last night. Kept typing posts and then it crashes and I would lose what I have typed.

AnnieMoor · 22/03/2015 11:16

This is driving me nuts. Really.

EhricLovesTheBhrothers · 22/03/2015 11:12

Just happened again...
Going to keep posting to keep this thread alive and remind hq that it's not fixed!

OwlCapone · 22/03/2015 11:07

Interestingly, and I admit this is the kiss of death, mine has been good this morning.

Behooven · 22/03/2015 10:41

Aaargh, so frustrating!

SweetFelicityArkwright · 22/03/2015 08:39

Still happening here too ! The crashes seem to be getting more frequent, clicking on the link, just now, about MN crashing Safari, made Safari crash !
Very, very frustrating !

CharityD · 22/03/2015 08:34

Rosa · 22/03/2015 08:02

This is just maddening, it's been happening for ages to me, and yes, only on Mumsnet. I never thought I'd say this, but I'm off to netmums.

WatchOutForGoblins · 21/03/2015 23:12

I wonder if mn have seen a drop in site stats?

It is really annoying and has kept me off loads as I can't be bothered restarting after every crash.

Wantsunshine · 21/03/2015 23:04

Happens so much I can barely read MN now. Took so many times to register this. Off to find another site.

Pizzadelivery · 21/03/2015 23:01

Hope that worked, safari shut down each time I tried to post!

Pizzadelivery · 21/03/2015 22:58

Happens most on MN chat page when I try to open threads. I can't update my ipad without causing problems. If update is the only way to fix this cn you let me know as I'll stop accessing MN rather than damage my ipad.

IonaMumsnet · 21/03/2015 21:13

Glad to hear updating has sorted things out for some of you. Huge apologies to everyone still having problems. Tech are still looking into this. We'll update the thread when there is any news.
