Re: Safari will not open specific webpage

Hello Stephen,

NO, I haven’t tried or tested MS Edge. 
We get a Mac version of MS Edge only because there’s a Mac version of Google’s 
Chromium system.

My previous reply to Peter Curtis explains why I prefer Safari.

That is very impressive Ronni.
Have you tried MS Edge ?
And if so what are your thoughts ?

Hi Stephen,

An update - you'll love this.  Eventually spoke to Woolworths.  They recommend 
Google Chrome as the best browser to use as it is integrated with their 
shopping.

Re: Safari will not open specific webpage

2020-02-11 Thread Alan Smith 
Hi Stephen,

As someone from wamug (Neil?) said a few years ago: it’s too late - Google 
already knows everything about you.  I think I was trying to uninstall Google 
Chrome after using it for a few days.

Google is efficient for my web searches.  I used DuckDuckGo for some time but 
became irritated by it.  Ditto for Bing.

In general I use standard Apple apps, including Safari.  I have Firefox 
installed on some devices as a backup browser.  Waiting for the new Microsoft 
Edge to be released by the Australian Mac App Store for possible use on the 
2019 iMac.

Cheers
Alan

Hi again Alan.
I suggest you dump Google ASAP.
That and Facebook will invade your world.

My family have use DuckDuckGo for a couple of years.
On our Macs and our iPhones.
They do no tracking and do not record your data.

Re: Safari will not open specific webpage

2020-02-11 Thread Stephen Chape 
Sounds to me like Woolies have not tested their latest web catalogue.
Web writers should always make sure their work is compatible with all common 
browsers before releasing.
I learnt this when I did my IT course at TAFE some years ago.

Safari will not open specific webpage

2020-02-10 Thread Alan Smith 
A problem.  I look at the Coles and Woolworths grocery catalogues most weeks. I 
usually use a 2012 iMac for this.  This week I cannot open the Woolies 
catalogue page using the default Safari browser.  I get a spinning "wait” icon 
with message “Loading Page”.  OS is High Sierra 10.13.6 with Google search 
engine.  However it does work using Firefox.

Same thing happens using a 2019 iMac using Safari and Google.  OS is Mojave 
10.14.6, Safari is version 13.0.5.  I do not have any other browser installed 
on this device.  If I use Safari > Develop > User Agent to emulate another 
browser (Firefox or Microsoft Edge) then the Woolies catalogue page opens.  
There is no change when the iMac is booted in Safe Mode.  No problems detected 
with Malwarebytes or EtreCheck.

Experiments with other devices just muddy the waters.  iPad 5 with iOS 13.3 and 
Google will not open the Woolies page either.  iPad 2 with iOS 9.3.5 and Bing 
works ok!

Superficially it seems that Google is a common factor.  Any suggestions for a 
fix?
