Safari troubleshooting on Mac - Apple Support
I have done the update last night. First it hard time login me in. Rainbow kept going and going. After about 5 to 10 minutes, the desktop opened up. Safari wont open at all. System settings is working however cannot load security settings tab. Whenever I try to close an app, which requests the password for allowing it, it takes ages to process. If it goes on screensaver it takes ages to come back. I had to restart it several times. Connects to the internet. 3rd party apps seem to work fine. Preview open the doc but freezes if I try play with the pdf doc, copy and paste a page etc.
it seems like it logs in but cannot load the screen. Because i am now connected to it via bluetooth i can hear whatsapp messages coming on my headphones but i see the login screen. I close the lid and open it re-enter my password still waiting.
Any thoughts?
I'm dealing with exactly the same problem after the update last night. It's very annoying to wait 5 minutes in login screen.
I could not find a way to work around it. I uploaded back the recovery point from time machine before the update. Now works fine the same as before the update.
I am thinking of doing a clean install of mojave sometime soon. I have been updating it since yosemite.

i was facing the same issues. I downloaded the combo update and installed it on my MacBook Pro. System is working fine now.
