Safari problem on ipad

Horseygirl123

I've had exactly the same problem this afternoon - thought it was just a problem with my iPad.

Anyway, I cleared history and cookies in settings and rebooted and it is now fine.

The BBC are reporting this is fixed now. If you re-enable the Safari Suggestions and it still crashes, click the Clear History and Website Data option.

I have done this and it works for me now.

I restored the safari suggestions, Safari still didn't work so I deleted history and it worked ok but I've lost some of my saved favourite sites so have had to log in on this site again with my user name and password. The site is now the new white version. I was previously still on the older more friendly on the eye version. Why don't they just leave stuff alone. I LIKE THE OLD AND FAMILIAR LOOK. Yes I'm shouting! Not sure what else in history I've lost but I expect I will find it again sooner or later.

Thanks for your help folks.

Because if they left things alone they could all be made redundant.
So there is an inbuilt incentive for the staff at all levels to always keep changing everything - and fixing the problems arising from changing it.

Lots of things work like this:
Why do major infrastructure projects overrun and are over budget.
The staff on all sides know they will.
If they say so at the beginning what the real likely cost is then the project would not go ahead - and they would all be made redundant..
So both the bidders and the buyers staff deliberately underplay the likely costs and time. This ensures the projects go ahead, everyone gets to keep their jobs and the real costs only become apparent after it is too late to cancel. I've spent many a happy hour quoting for these sort of jobs.

There are also some theories that if you keep on changing workers working conditions/office layout or whatever you can continually improve their productivity - even if it means after a few years that you change the office back to what it was originally. By which time most will have left/forgotten and those with long memories that have not can be sidelined as "not being team players".

I enabled safari settings after the fix and it worked fine. But I've lost ALL my favourites. A lot of important documents that took me ages to find, and now they've vanished.
