Sometimes either Facebook page loading gets stuck .....and/or trying to search on google & nothing happens. Why does this happen?

Outside my iPad, or was it inside?
Well, that blows.

Do you restart your iPad from time to time? It can be done by keeping the power button pressed, until it says 'Slide to power off'.

Otherwise, try restarting Safari by entering the Multitaskbar (double press on the home button), then keep your finger pressed onto Safari, until it starts to wiggle, and then press on the red circle to close it.

Yep I've found that by shutting safari it does fix the problem. I rarely shut down iPad completely. I will give it a try. Thank you!!

I would do away with safari and download a web browser app called atomic ,it's worth every penny

You can view web pages in ie or firefox

Well, it depends on your preferences.


There are various third party browsers
Mercury, atomic, perfect browser, etc.

I got atomic, but only use it, when I want to download a file, which Safari does not download. For Web browsing have I reverted back to safari, as it simply works, though obviously in your case, it doesn't always.

Atomic is good, I prefer Perfect Browser myself for it's smart scrolling feature /tabs etc.
