Q: Does anybody else have problems when they use Safari for tvguide.com/listings?

It doesn't happen every time, but frequently, when I use safari to go to tvguide.com/listings the page loads for about a second, then goes blank. It's frustrating. Most of the time I just use a different browser to go to that site, but I like Safari for just about everything else. This has been happening for over a year, so the updates aren't solving the problem. And, yes, I recently updated to Sierra. I try to keep up with all of the updates.

    Safari/Preferences/Advanced - enable the Develop menu, then go there and Empty Caches. Quit/reopen Safari and test. Then try Safari/History/Show History and delete all history items.  Quit/reopen Safari and test. You can also try try Safari/Clear History…. The down side is it clears all cookies. Doing this may cause some sites to no longer recognize your computer as one that has visited the web site. Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Library./Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db and move it to the trash.

     

    Go to Safari Preferences/Extensions and turn all extensions off. Test. If okay, turn the extensions on one by one until you figure out what extension is causing the problem.
