Hello,

I suddenly realized really big troubles with Safari all the PCs that I tested !!!
Incompatibility ? Or something else ?

All is ok with Firefox, Chrome and IE.

I send you the link by email.
Urgent help will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Um, Apple abandoned Safari on Windows PCs several years ago. It’s insecure and should never be used on any Windows-based PC (e.g., WinXp, Win7, Win8, etc.).

If you’re asking about Safari on Mac OSX or iOS
— what “specific” problem are you having? “Big troubles” is not very descriptive 🙂

Thanks a lot Guys for your quick answers.

Andrei : I answered to your email.
I feel released if it’s ok on Mac with Safari.

Chris : yes, according to your information, it’s really better to avoid to use Safari on PCs.
🙂
But we can always find here and there some users with this kind of softwares (I hope it’s really rare now on PCs).

Just to be more explicit about my problem : Safari tries to open the home page, it stays frozen for a while, and tries again and again to open the home page. Without success. And pictures can’t be displayed.
I can’t access at all to the site in fact.

Thanks.

Yes, you should just abandon support for Safari/Windows — the issue is not with the site; it’s with Safari which Apple abandoned 4 years ago (!).

So anybody using it will be having problems with the entire internet, SSL, email, Google, Amazon, Netflix, etc.

Anybody using Safari on a PC, will likely get the message by now to switch to Chrome on Windows 7/8, or Edge on Windows 10.

It’s really totally crap and doesn’t support modern security so is an easily hacked browser via malware and bad actors on the web.

It’s a fool’s errand to try to “break your site” to work with Safari/PC as that kind of hacking might break things for everything else.

You can try to add some helper elements to your header to load in legacy code, much like you can for IE6/7.
