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?

Crashing really bad today!

LavenderRain · 02/05/2015 20:03

Still really bad, takes me umpteen attempts to get into a thread. Time I just havnt got, I feel my MN days are numbered Sad

And I repeat;
its only when I'm on MN not any other programme

paxtecum · 02/05/2015 18:21

Terrible today.
I suppose it could be a cue for me to do something more productive.

LayMeDown · 30/04/2015 12:28

Every time I click into a new thread or a new page on a thread it crashes. It so driving me bonkers. When will it be fixed?

RickOShay · 29/04/2015 21:55

Still crashing. Please fix.

NutellaOnCrumpets · 29/04/2015 20:05

I have been on MN for a few threads and it was working fine, got in and out of all of them and flicked through the pages etc with no crashes. Thought it had fixed but then lo and behold the next thread crashed Angry

It sets off the fan on my Mac (laptop) Hmm

Waiting for log.pinterest.com seems to be the guilty one which slows things up on this computer.

OwlBeeBack · 29/04/2015 16:23

Worse than ever today. I've down updated to IOS 8.3 and it hasn't helped at all!

Ledkr · 29/04/2015 15:15

Still happening here too

mummylin2495 · 28/04/2015 20:59

I just tried to open a thread and it took until the fourth time before I succeeded. It seems to be getting worse. Every thread it seems to crash at least once.

Halsall · 28/04/2015 14:59

I'm on a PC at the moment so I've finally been able to visit the Thread I'm On that simply will not load for me whenever I'm on my ipad (IOS 8.2). It's completely bizarre that this particular thread is the most problematic of all. Every single time I try to open it, it freezes and just keeps scrolling round with no result. I now can't access it at all on the ipad.

Annarose2014 · 28/04/2015 10:49

Unusable on iPad still. Tortuous even trying to make this comment.

Its almost May and this issue has been happening continually since the middle of March. Not good enough, tbh. I am starting to suspect that the visit stats haven't been affected enough for this bug to be an overwhelming priority.

LavenderRain · 28/04/2015 10:14

Tokelau that is exactly what happens with me too,

NO other programmes have any problems whatsoever, just MN

Very frustrating

Lokisglowstickofdestiny · 28/04/2015 07:52

This site has become unusable. The issue has got worse over the last few days. I use the internet extensively on my Ipad both for work and leisure and Mumsnet is the only site where this is happening. Will pop back in a month or so and see whether it's been fixed, farewell Mumsnet!

Yes it's def still happening

Petitgrain · 28/04/2015 03:38

Me too. Once again I'm off after the last 6 times I've clicked, it's crashed.

Dumpylump · 27/04/2015 23:29

I've just about given up tonight too....every time I try and read another page, click on a link, post something......down it goes. Every sodding time.

JockTamsonsBairns · 27/04/2015 23:27

I'm on iPad iOS 8.3 and tonight it has just been continually crashing. I appreciate that you're working hard to get to the root of the problem but, for now, I'm finding mumsnet totally unusable.

peagreen · 27/04/2015 14:07

Thanks for all your work on it at HQ - it must be frustrating to try to fix. I'm not sure if it's helpful to have a log of how bad it's been, but today has been particularly bad for crashing after a few days of it being more intermittent.

NutellaOnCrumpets · 27/04/2015 12:43

Tokelau that's exactly what it's like for me.

Tokelau · 27/04/2015 11:19

Right now, I am on Mumsnet on Safari on an iMac and it is working fine. When I try to use Mumsnet on Safari on my iPad, each time I click on a new thread, safari closes. I open it up and it takes me a page back from where I was. I reclick the thread I wanted, and it usually opens the second time. Sometimes it crashes again though and I am finally successful the last time.

To be honest, it is now so slow to access Mumsnet on my iPad, that I've almost given up. It just takes too long and is too frustrating.

It doesn't crash with any other website.

We have made a new, separate bug report to Apple now for the slightly different incarnation of this in iOS 8 (bug report number 20650483). We are also working with other websites who are having similar issues in an attempt to find a solution to this. I realise some of you are having issues on non iOS devices, but since we can more easily see this problem on Safari iOS we are focussing on solving that first and then will look at the other platforms. Thanks for your continued feedback and patience.

NapoleonsNose · 26/04/2015 18:16

Mine was OK for a week or so after a period of almost continual crashes. Now it's back to crashing on every page. It seems to happen when I try to open another page and it's really annoying now, to the point of making MN almost unusable.
