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?

Doing it loads at the moment. Also it keeps logging me out when it crashes, even though I have "keep me logged in" ticked. Soooooo annoying!!

It's awful tonight!

I use my iPod touch, Safari, version 8.3.

I've not really noticed the reloading issues the past few days but the issue I've been getting since iOS 8 is on discussions.apple.com/thread/6782714 this thread.

I have been blaming some of the ads since it started happening on here, most recently the Ocado one but I've had no problems that I've noticed the past few days (not even with Ocado) and I could be clutching at straws blaming the ads anyway!

Shamtech any update?

Allthequeenshorses · 24/04/2015 21:48

Another one, only mumsnet causing me the problems. Every single thread or page I try says a problem occurred with this website, reloading.

MN is basically unusable tonight, as Sarafi lags so badly it takes an age to type a short sentence. Driving me nuts!

It's only on mn for me too. I've found it seems to be worse in the evenings (I guess when traffic is higher) - it still crashes back to the home screen during the day, but I can usually view 5 or so pages before it does it, rather than the 1 or 2 that I get in the evenings. It may just be coincidence though! I'm running ios7 on a 2nd gen ipad, and am really really reluctant to upgrade to ios8 (aside from anything else, I reckon I would have to delete most of the things I have on here to free up enough memory!)

Annarose2014 · 23/04/2015 18:56

Crashing everytime I switch threads, and sometimes even when I click to the next page. Only an issue on MN. The site is basically unuseable for me a lot of the time. I no longer persist in opening MN up again, but just go elsewhere.

Behooven · 21/04/2015 20:47

Still happening only on mumsnet to me as well.
I've hardly been on for the last few weeks as it's so annoying.

EcclefechanTart · 21/04/2015 19:27

It only seems to be MN for me too. How odd.

ChangingTiming · 21/04/2015 18:59

Yes yes yes! MN crashed by Safari on ipad. No idea why, only seems to be MN

AgathaChristie01 · 21/04/2015 18:54

MN is the only site that crashes, for me. Every other site works perfectly.

LittleBearPad · 21/04/2015 18:10

The page reloading thing is happening on various websites so looks like an apple issue. But the 'cannot parse response' is only happening for me on mn.

ThinkIveBeenHacked · 21/04/2015 18:01

It is also affecting MN on android too

ShamTech · 21/04/2015 17:01

We're trying everything we can, but ultimately we're attempting to workaround a bug that has nothing to do with Mumsnet. Threads like this confirm it. We're not giving up though. If you'd like to help to push Apple to fix these problems, you can submit your own feedback to Apple. In the meantime, we'll continue to try and find a workaround. Thanks.

EcclefechanTart · 21/04/2015 16:38

I'm on ios 7.3. I don't want to upgrade to 8! It doesn't work at all with one of the apps I use most often.

(If it's the only way to make MN work, I guess I will consider it, but at the moment it doesn't look like it does make MN work).

Ok, will try make enough memory to update!

ShamTech · 21/04/2015 16:09

If you are able to upgrade to 8.3 we have been informed by Apple that the crashing (where it disappears and goes back to your home screen) is fixed in that version. And on our office and personal iPads, we are not able to make it crash on 8.3 whereas we can on 7.x

MrsHarryRamsden · 21/04/2015 16:06

I'm on 7.1.1 (is that correct?) and still getting regular crashes

ShamTech · 21/04/2015 15:29

AgathaChristie01 and EcclefechanTart what version of iOS are you on?

EcclefechanTart · 21/04/2015 11:18

Lots of crashes on ipad in last 5 min. Back to home screen each time.

AgathaChristie01 · 21/04/2015 11:09

Crashed twice in last five minutes, or so, on iPad. Back to my homescreen. No error message.

ShamTech · 21/04/2015 10:53

Thank you again. We're trying out another change today. Could anybody on iPad please post again here if you experience a crash from now on? Thank you.
