OS X 10.11.4 freezing and/or crashing while using Safari

Just to say .... no, nothing I suggest worked for long. Sorry guys.

Same issue here.. whole system crashed, even touchpad (rMBP 2015 early with 10.11.4) 4 times, in 3 days (and basically never before so).. its very akwful

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.

Same problem here as well! The whole computer freezes randomly when using Safari or Chrome.

I upgraded to 10.11.4 thinking it was a minor update on 10.11.3 and my freezing problems started soon after. I had never experienced this before. It appears to be linked to "Webkit" and possibly Flash Player as I see this a lot in my log .... then again my previously quiet console is now full of messages of all sorts since this late upgrade and I stopped getting web notifications!

I am hoping that Apple will solve this latest software issue that has been "imposed" on some of us. Unfortunately I also have another 6 months old Retina iMac currently in for repairs (Unrelated issue) and between the hardware failures and the software bugs, I am starting to lose patience with Apple.

I'll add a "me too" to this thread.

I'm running:

MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015)

on 10.11.4 (15E65), Safari 9.1 (11601.5.17.1)

Graphics intensive sites such as imgur.com and most recently Youtube.com have been completely freezing my computer. It's happens daily but isn't easily reproducible as sometimes the pages load fine.

Your crash was apparently caused by an out of date Flash Plug-in. You need to update it or, better, uninstall Flash completely.

Same issue here for me !

Mouse freezes

No response from keyboard

I can physically feel a click on trackpad for a few seconds then the trackpad physically freezes too.

It's been my 2nd call to support.

OSX 10.11.4 (15E65)

MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015)

1st Mac and really not impressed i have to say 😟 especially for the price...

Yesterday, After installed OS X El capitane 10.11.4 there is the problem of Safari . Usually I opened many tabs so if i go to the next it seems like frozen- any clicks and zoom for pictures don't work , for to do that i need to refresh the page(( I regret of updating for OS X 10.11.4 Hope it will be fixed because it's not normal!

I don't even have Flash installed and this happens to me. FLASH IS NOT THE PROBLEM

My reply pointing out that Flash was causing them problems was to LondonLaurence, not you. In any event I don't help people WHO SHOUT.

Similar to broozar. Happens to me, usually when I'm in safari, but also when I was working on an iMovie project.

Everything freezes up, including force-click trackpad, can't move the mouse.

Just happened to me while switching full-screen apps.

Adding a "me, too." Frequent kernel panics or Safari freezing since El Capitan update.

MacBook Pro Retina, 13-in, mid 2014

8G RAM, Intel Iris graphic card

xkx - I got an email from you thanking me for downloading the beta and saying that you would mark this a solved if you didn't hear otherwise in a few hours. Um, no, that's not what I said. I don't have access to the beta, and have not downloaded it. This is NOT solved. Please do not indicate otherwise - Apple needs to address this.

How can installing a beta ever be a solution ?

I agree, Apple really needs to address this.
