Updated to iOS 9.3 and now find that I can't open any websites from the list brought up in safari. It searches ok and provides a list if websites but none of them will open. Any solutions?
iPad Air 2 Wi-Fi, iOS 9.3
You have to wait until a fix is available from Apple.
HI, can we assume that they know about this problem which I also share except that I'm still running 9.2.1. Thanks
I've the same problem, BEFORE ans AFTER unpdating 9.3 !
The same happened with the links into my mails...
same problem but it appears today. With every search engine on my iphone (yahoo, google, bing, duckduckgo)
all other links work well on a webpage, only the links in a web search engine do not respond
I have reported this problem to Apple who say they are working on a solution and will keep me informed of progress. When I get the fix instructions I will post it here
Seems to be taking a long time on such a major thing. Also, they don't seem to acknowledge there is an issue on chat. Frustrating.
Good post and helpful replies.
One thing you can try in the interim is to restore your device using iTunes (Use iTunes on your Mac or PC to restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support). This process installed a complete, fresh version of the iOS to the device using the Mobile Device Management module in more current versions of iTunes. I had this exact issue when i updated my iPhone 6S + Monday, restored the Phone and its working like a champ now.
I usually deploy this option as a last resort, but the fact of the matter is that it will fix many, many iOS software problems.
Cheers
This is not an iOS problem. I updated to iOS 9.3 on Tuesday, but only began having this problem today (Sunday). Turning off Javascript in Settings -> Safari has helped and I can open links in Safari. I still can't open links in Mail and other apps, and in Chrome I have to hold down the link and open it in a new tab. Additionally, I found a post on 9to5mac.com which links this problem to recently updated apps and not iOS 9.3, since it's also happening in iOS 9.2.1: http://9to5mac.com/2016/03/27/some-users-reporting-iphone-crashes-on-ios-9-3-whe n-tapping-links-in-safari-and-other-apps…
Here's a new post at TechCrunch that provides more details about the new Universal Links and the problem caused by the size of the Booking.com UL data -- though there probably are other apps that cause this same problem-- and why we still may just have to wait for Apple to fix it: http://techcrunch.com/2016/03/28/its-not-just-you-clicking-on-links-in-ios-9-3-c an-crash-your-iphone/
GGot a call back from Apple Support and they say it is a software problem that they are working hard on to find a fix. In the meantime, as many of you have suggested, they advised going to Settings>Safari >Advanced and turning off JavaScrip. This only workes for websites that are not using JavaScript therefore you cannot access everything you want but it is giving some access. It does not solve the problem of not being able to access web links through emails.
IT is becoming more and more annoying. I hope they come up with a fix soon.
Can't open any websites after updating iOS 9.3
