Repeated: "Safari web content quit unexpectedly"; no crash, but repetitious after Safari 10.1 Install
Hello.
[ Machine data below — a lot ]
I am a becoming-disenfranchised Apple customer ( mid 90's).
Currently: MBP Late 2011, El Capitan. The data below given with marginal intelligence is what I presume (may) be needed to address my query. Would you please?
As the subject indicates only subsequent to the Safari 10.1 uodate [ from 10.0.3 ] — not ever previously — has Safari begin to repetitiously emit that message: "Safari web content quit unexpectedly".
This may have come when I tried:
1.) To produce a PDF print
2.) To print from a page . . . ,
but memory fails on that point. The "message box" appeared, but Safari did NOT crash/quit, nor even require a restart. The "window" [ message box ] appeared two or three time, successively, & within minutes AFTER THE INSTALL OF THE UPDATE.
I found the ERROR distressing & sought immediately for resolution. I do not know how to rememedy this. What I did discover seemed laborious &, yet, another, "fix" to labour through on this temperamental machine.
This, for one:
http://appletoolbox.com/2015/10/mac-safari-web-content-quit-unexpectedly-error-f ix/
& another even more comprehensive, & professional suggestion, from a person on these forums with numerous dots & a lot of good advice. [ I do not know if names can be posted. ]
I have, however, taken this machine "in" for remedies that the machine should never have had [ track pad failures, keyboard, screen, &c. ] & had done many "reinstalls" on this box & former ones when beneath Yosemite.
IN BRIEF:
I did not fix "it". I just resigned & downloaded Firefox & it does NOT COMPARE!
Thus, I am here posting for a kind reply that may portend that Apple DOES has a fix for this that DOES NOT require an extensive removal of Safari items hidden in the bowels of this MBP, nor to reinstall the OS, nor to hire service, nor any such labour! It was an Apple install — that should not cause my machine to behave erraticallly!
That is, of course, merely opinion. The problem remains:
"Safari web content quit unexpectedly". ONLY subsequent to Safari 10.1 install, which, of course, I could not simply replace with the backed-up version of 10.0.3 . . . all other detail above & below. If any one has solution — other than rebuilding my machine's software from the OS up, please advise.
Thank you!
