    Apple is not here. Just other users.

    Post the entire crash report for us to review.

    A few days ago after getting last update Mountain Lion 10.8.5 while on Facebook watching videos my Safari started crashing. I download easing Hard drive and didn't work. There must be something wrong Mountain last update. I have no idea. Mozilla is not crashing.

    10.8.5 is a few years old and it's not a cause of your Safari crash.

    Post the entire crash report and we can probably see the issue.

    I am not getting Crash report. It is freezing and without force loading Safari is not working. I also tried without Flash player, still same issue. Safari is only working before getting any update.

     

    I have Yosemite on other hard drive but don't like screen quality so need to fix on Mountain Lion. SHortly after updating system Safari freezing and this is new issue for me.

    Safari/Preferences/Advanced - enable the Develop menu, then go there and Empty Caches. Quit/reopen Safari and test. Then try Safari/History/Show History and delete all history items.  Quit/reopen Safari and test. You can also try try Safari/Reset Safari. The down side is it clears all cookies.Doing this may cause some sites to no longer recognize your computer as one that has visited the web site. Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Library./Caches/com.apple.Safari/Caches.db and move it to the trash.
