Mar 25, 2016 1:32 PM in response to OriginalName022by Agathorn,★HelpfulTThanks it worked. However links from mail etc still doesn't work. Mail freezes. I let Apple know about this and they are aware of the issue they said. Hope they fix it soon!

Mar 26, 2016 10:41 AM in response to Agathornby Paontheinternet,Same thing happening here.
It's only an issue with safari for me. Chrome browser works fine. But also impacts native apps that have a safari callback in them, i.e. linking to webpage.

Mar 26, 2016 1:35 PM in response to Agathornby damv,The same thing happened to me after 8.3 was released, even though I didn't upgrade. I tried upgrading the problem didn't go away. I tried wiping and restoring from backup, the problem still didn't go away. In the end wiping the entire phone and not restoring from backup, fixed the problem even on 8.3, but it's ridiculous to have to go through such lengths, just to be able to click on a link.

Mar 26, 2016 5:50 PM in response to Agathornby nameisunique,I was frustrated enough to try to go back to 9.2.1. No Go...ran into the "Software too old" message in iTunes (Windows) when I try to restore the phone after I do the downgrade to 9.2.1. Frustrating to say the least.
I'm (kid you not) 6 hours into restoring my iphone 6+ (128Gb) to 9.3 from the backup. End result will be still having the broken links problem. :-/
I'm trying to remember the number of times I've told folks not to immediately upgrade to the new release. Should have been a little more suspect of a new release that's timed with a somewhat big announcement by Apple.
Live and learn...not sure if anyone has the magic process to downgrade from 9.3 that actually works. I know that Apple is still signing the 9.2.1 IPSW file, but not sure how to get around the "Software too old message). More curious really, after the restore back to 9.3, will just wait until fix for 9.3 comes out. Which like everyone else...I hope is SOON.
Good luck.

Mar 26, 2016 7:35 PM in response to Agathornby dabwat,Same problem (links in safari do not work) and I have spent SO much time on this including chats, phone calls with Apple and a trip to the Genius Bar where we thought he fixed it. It does not work even though we erased my phone and reset, etc....... SO frustrating and my phone is not smart anymore. I wish I had not upgraded to 9.3 so quickly as well and waited until I heard more about it. My husband has a 6s and his did fine. Mine is a 6plus.
