My Safari was working fine, then sudddenly pages stopped loading.
MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4)
What happens when you try to load a page? Do other Internet applications work, such as the App Store? What about other devices on the same network, if any?
App store is fine. Firefox works. Not Safari or Chrome.
Safari is fine on my iPod and iPad. Just not working on my three-month old MacBook Pro.
To repeat: What happens when you try to load a page?
THE URL shows in the address bar, but nothing appears below it.
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
The problem did not exist in safe mode, nor when I rebooted. Thanks for helping me solve the problem.
Problem has recurred this morning, so the rebooting was only a temporary fix.
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
Triple-click the line of text below on this page to select it:
kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}' | open -ef
Repeat with this line:
{ sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix\.cron)|org\.(amav|apac|cups|isc|ntp|postf|x)/{print $3}'; echo; sudo defaults read com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook; echo; sudo crontab -l; } 2> /dev/null | open -ef
{ launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}'; echo; crontab -l 2> /dev/null; } | open -ef
ls -A /e*/{cr,la,mach}* {,/}Lib*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts .la* 2> /dev/null | open -ef
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' | open -ef
You can then quit Terminal.

Back up all data.
From the menu bar, select
▹ System Preferences ▹ Network
If the preference pane is locked, click the lock icon in the lower left corner and enter your password to unlock it. Then click the Advanced button and select the Proxies tab. If any proxy options are selected, make a note of them and then deselect them. You don’t need to change the bypass or FTP settings. Click OK and then Apply. Test. The result may be that you can't connect to any web server. Restore the previous settings if that happens.
The only thing checked on Proxies was Use Passive FTP Mode. Testing didn't allow Safari or Chrome to load pages.
Is the problem intermittent, or do you have it all the time? Are all web pages affected?
The problem disappeared after the diagnostic testing in safe mode, and the Safari and Chrome worked fine for several hours. Then the pages quit loading again. The only thing that shows up on either browser is the URL. The pages themselves won't load.
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this test is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account. Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The "Guest User" login created by "Find My Mac" is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Safari pages won't load
