Hello Kipling145,


It sounds like your Safari isn't opening up webpages as expected. We understand how important this is to you and we are here to help.


This article may be able to provide some guidance: If Safari on Mac doesn't open a web page or isn’t working as expected


If the issue persists, can you provide a few more details? When did you first notice this issue? Which macOS version are you currently using? Also, which websites are you having issues with?


Cheers!

Kipling145,


Thank you for those details. Next, let's test in a new user account. This article should help: Set up users, guests, and groups on Mac


This will let us know if the issue is specific to your user account or systemwide.


Let's also test in safe mode using this page: Start up your Mac in safe mode


This will let us know if you have any software installed that may be causing this issue.


Let us know the results.


Take Care!

Kpling145,

 

Thank you for trying those steps. Since the issue persists in safe mode, this article should help: How to use safe mode on your Mac


If the issue continues while in safe mode, or your Mac restarts several times and then shuts down while starting up in safe mode, you should reinstall macOS and make sure that your Apple software and third-party apps are up to date.


Since it also happens in a new user account, this means it is a systemwide issue. 


Hopefully this helps. 


Good Luck!

I tried bailer's suggestions; still have the problem. I noticed this issue a week or so ago. I am currently using Catalina 10.15.7. When I attempt to open a web page, it opens briefly then shuts off. A message appears: "this webpage was reloaded because there is a problem with the website". When I press command/R, the same thing occurs. This does not occur on all websites. It occurs on commercial websites such as Home Depot, Lowe's, Panera Bread etc. It does not happen when I click on my Raymond James account. I can access these websites using Safari on my iPad and iPhone using the same network. The problem only occurs on my Mac.
