10.11.4 Safari freeze

It seems like video graphics driver issue. I hope, that Apple will take care of it. I remember Intel 3100 graphics issue when Apple did nothing with in Snow Leopard and later versions.

Their own browser is unusable and totally broken righ now since 10.11.4, so they'll have no other choice than fixing it quickly.

They can't deny and ignore it, or argue like they often do : you're not using it the right way.

Same problem here.

The more we call and send feedback the quicker they'll repair this bug.

I am surprised and disappointed to see how apple is blind at this. I spent hours on twitter chatting with apple support and on the phone speaking to so-called "senior advisor" : nothing.

I've been in touch with Apple. They've shown a genuine interest in getting to the bottom of this.

That's good to hear.

Please, keep us updated !

I am having the same issue. I am using a iMac 21.5 inch, mid 2010, with the OS X El Capitan Operating System (10.11.4) and Safari 9.1 (11601.5.167.1) I experience multiple screen freeze-ups daily when on Safari. The cursor will move, but clicking the mouse does nothing. Keyboard prompts also do not work. The Track Pad will also move the cursor, but again, clicking does nothing. The screen simply is locked. I have to force shut down by holding the on/off button and then restart. I find this to be extremely frustrating. So glad to know it's not just me!

As I posted earlier in this thread (twice), I have the same freezing issue. 13" MBP that was perfectly stable with 10.11.3 now crashing every 24-48 hours while using Safari. It seems to be linked to video, often on youtube, or pictures, usually on Facebook. Things that do NOT fix the issue are:

1. Using the combo updater for 10.11.4.

2. Using the Safari Technology Preview.

I'm trying a new approach now. I backed up my 10.11.4 partition, then used Carbon Copy Cloner to replicate the 10.11.4 partition, booted from that copy and updated to the beta 10.11.5.

We'll see.

I wish that Apple would make it easier to fall back to the previous version when issues like this arise. As best I can tell, that is simply impossible unless you kept a copy of the 10.11.0 install app.

revert to earlier version of 10.11:

this will not work, but it can easily be done from a TM backup.

read my last post.

Time machine is not ideal for reverting to an earlier OS version.

"

If you use Time Machine to back up your Mac, you can easily revert to a previous version of OS X if you experience trouble after installing an update.

Reinstalling the OS does not affect any user files, but fscking Apple won't let you do this. If they just kept a FULL installer available, this would not be an issue.

Anyone know where to get 11.10.0 full installer?

My iMac 21.5 inch, mid 2010, with the OS X El Capitan Operating System (10.11.4) and Safari 9.1 is still freezing, but now it is multiple times a day. So maddening. I thought my days of computer frustration had ended when I gave up on Windows based machines and switched to Apple. A "fix" can't happen fast enough.

For what it's worth, it seems that my computer is more prone to freeze when there are multiple Safari pages open (and perhaps multiple apps opened also.) I agree that "freezing" seems to also occur with video playback on opened Safari pages. (I try to avoid using video, but sometimes pages have advertising videos that play automatically. When this happens, I expect the computer to freeze.)

Yeah I have the exact same problem for the last 2 weeks with an early 2015 Macbook Pro. Very Annoying!

Thanks god I'm not alone. Same freezes on MBPr 13" 2015. Right after 10.11.4. Mostly it was in Safari, also few times after waking up, and yesterday - watching videos in Photos app - twice in 5 min. Contacted support, deleted caches, safari logs, etc - so far no freezes in Safari. But other software seems like still causes freezes.

Same problem as other posters. Early 2015 MacBook Pro with Iris graphics, 10.11.4, Safari, full system crash. Lose haptic touchpad, can't quit applications, etc. Have to do full power-off to restart. Very frustrating. Submitted support feedback. Really annoyed to hear that this is still happening with 10.11.5 beta.

I have the same problem on a Macbook Air 13 that I bought just about a month ago. It worked well for the first couple of weeks. But then I upgraded to OS X 10.11.4, and it started to freeze about once a day. Just like the others, the whole system freezes. Even the trackpad and keyboard don't respond, and the only way out is to force the system to restart with the power button.

By the way, I don't think it's limited to Safari. It also happened once when I was streaming a TV show on iTunes. So, I think it's system-wide.

I have this problem too, it's so frustrating.

MacBook Air 13" 2015, OS X 10.11.4, Safari 9.1

The issue became when I update OS X El capitan. It happened 3 times, always using Safari: two times in youtube and another with twitter.

Someone knows when de update is coming?
