Problem repeatedly occurred" error in Safari 14.1

I have the same problem. I did the update on Mojave from Safari 13.xx to 14.1 and now it crashes almost in all website... if I deleted all the cookies then it works fine but as soon as the cookies begin to install, the crashing begin again... it feels like the only option is to downgrade to Safari 13.x

I will reiterate that Apple pulled the 14.1 update from Software Update on 4/30 on my Cat MBP machine, and from what I read they pulled it from most Cat and Mojave machines. Luckily I had not yet updated, so I was able to notice the absent update that showed for days prior. If they had not pulled it, I would worry about a fix. But for those of you frustrated with the unbaked release, I'm guessing they will reissue next week. They rarely take fault with their releases, but when they pull them, it suggests so. Once again, I would recommend the temptation not to push that update button for a few days and scour these posts before actually updating. It shouldn't be like that... but it appears to be more and more frequent.

Thanks for info - just to add. I fall into the category of having Catalina and after doing what I thought was a Security update that had been out for quite awhile - found out that the Safari update had been tacked on. I stopped several people from installing the update. The worst part is that even updating to Big Sur does not solve. Many people like myself always wait but the way this was rolled out was inexcusable.

Turning off JavaScript does solve the problem in a sense, but as you say you lose functionality. For example I had to turn it back on to reply to this post!

I updated software as Apple suggested on my Mojave 10.14.6 and the new rev off Safari 14.1 is completely unusable. Apple has to fix this.

Definitely a Safari 14.1 problem - broke when I updated my Mojave 10.14.6 as Apple suggested. Disappointing that Apple would have a bug like this and not fix it fast. This gives other browsers a chance to have Apple users see them in action. I am using Chrome now.

twststern... Safari Technology Preview will appear as a separate app. Go to your applications folder and start it from there. Nice that it's separate so when a Safari update comes, it will be easy to take the update and move on.

@jdmcmurtry I recalled some people on Big Sur had the same issue with Safari 14.1 that was released across multiple OSX version including Big Sur the last week of April. An OS independent release with a fix went out a week later.

I have issues with linkedin, instacart and expedia where I get progress indicators without page loading after updating to Safari 14.1 on mac os mojave 10.14.6. Using inspect element window indicates the same error on all above mentioned websites which may or may not be relevant to the error.

I got the same response from apple support backup and reinstall or upgrade to big sur and the problem "may" get resolved.. Could you please tell me if reinstall in the above thread resolved issue on mac os mojave.I don't have a separate external drive for time machine backup and a manual backup may not be the optimal route to resolve this issue.

As a side note the above mentioned website render correctly on firefox 88 on same platform ruling out any network issues.

Hi,

I accessed your NGO site and did not have any issues clicking on various items. I have the latest release of Safari Version 14.1.1 (15611.2.7.1.6, 15611) on Catalina 10.15.7.

Can you provide steps to recreate the issue?

What is your version of OSX and Safari?

I have seen some postings by people with older versions of OSX still having issues.

Hope this helps.

FYI. Apple has now pulled the 14.1 update from Software Update. No longer appears for me on Cat. Just the Security Update 2021-002 remained which I updated today with no issues.

Hi djogon,

I have not found a true fix yet and as I gave a few workarounds earlier in this thread. Until Apple releases an update we are all stuck using alternate browsers.

Thanks SupaMac... Safari Technology Preview works.

Awesome! Safari Technology Preview v14.2 works just like the old Safari!

Same issue with Safari 14.1. Will be using Firefox for Ebay until Apple sorts the bug...

@podino73 said "I have installed macOS 11.3.1" — that's Big Sur. The problems with the initial release of Safari 14.1 were only on Catalina and Mojave.
