Q: Safari persists reloading web pages
After a upgrade of Safari 2016 march 22 (and also the security upgrade), some web pages are repeating to load until stopping with a alert (Dutch): 'Deze webpagina is opnieuw geladen vanwege een probleem' (English, but maybe the official text is different: This web page has been reloaded because of a problem.
This problem is followed bij a rapport for Apple.
- Other browsers don't have this problem
- On my other Mac (Macbook Pro, El Capitane): no problems
- after emptying cash, history, and so on, and all other advices I found on the web, the problem doesn't disappear
- turning off Java the web page is loaded (but without the facilities of Java of course)
- problems with Java or Webkit?
- (re-)installing the latest Java for OS X 10.9.5 didn't help
I think to have upgraded by a BUG instead by a upgrade. The solution is to use Google Chrome, but I like(d) Safari because of stability ;-)
The best solution is Apple repairs the upgrade with another upgrade... But does Apple know this problem, I don't see a possibility to reach them.
Maybe someone recognizes this problem and can tell me what to do.
