Safari is crashing 5-6 times a day now - any advice?

Raider · 19 Dec 2008 at 09:36

I switched to Safari from Firefox a few weeks back as I was fed up with Firefox being slow on some websites. I much prefer Safari except for the fact that it's crashing constantly now.

I'll typically get 5-6 crashes a day, and it's always on a few different websites. Facebook is the one today. I can't figure out what triggers it though, i'm guessing some kind of specific content on the website.

So any advice on how I might sort this? Don't want to go back to Firefox

Are you using the latest version of Flash?

Have a read of what i've put in this thread, and if you have any Safari add ons then remove them and see if that improves things

I have no add-ons at all. It's all standard

Another vote for the WebKit never looked back, in a word 'Awesome'

Look at the stack trace in the crash report dialog and you might see a hint as to why it's happening
