Forum content not working in MacOS Safari

[tigger4t]

Is anyone else having a problem getting scroll bars and some buttons to work in the MacOS Safari browser (running Ventura)? The BCG Forum site works perfectly in other browsers but not in Safari for some reason even though I have removed all possible restrictions for the site.

Any ideas?

I'm not seeing any problems on a MacBook Pro running Sonoma 14.5

It's working fine for me. No problems at all.

UPDATE: I'm using Sonoma (MacOS 14.5)

Works fine on my iPad. I realize that’s not MacOS. I noticed last night it was a little slow but today back to normal. Every now and then the site has a little hicup.

Works fine on my Macbook 16" w/ Sonoma 14.5

None on my iPad. Is you OS current?

Thanks all - I guess it must just be a quirk of my 2017 Intel Mac running Ventura. To be fair most other things died after installing Ventura. One upgrade too far I fear. Thanks for all of your comments.

Yes. It's been happening periodically for the past several weeks. Sometimes killing Safari and opening a new session resolves the problem, other times it does not. Safari 17.5 and Sonoma 14.5.

Yeah, this is happening to me as well on the odd occasion on my MacBook Pro (Ventura and Safari 17.5 ), scroll stops working, usually fixed by restarting safari.

All ok on my 2017 imac OS Ventura and iPad and iPhone also ok

On my M2 with latest OS, the forums in Safari have been very hit or miss in recent weeks. Sometimes navigation is possible, sometimes not. Fine in all other browsers, must be a Safari 'quirk' at the moment. To navigate within the forum this time took 2 'refreshes' and a 'reload'. Sometimes needs several 'reloads', other times works straight away.
Also, occasionally shows unformatted list before changing to forum layout

Thanks - it’s weird, it only happens on the BCG Forum site which works perfectly in FireFox and DuckDuckGo.

Yes! Also running Ventura on an M1 MacBook Pro and a 2017 Intel iMac. Both show symptoms of what you reported, although I've noticed it more on the MacBook Pro. BCG Forums appear to be the worse offender, but I've encountered the problem on other sites, including DuckDuckGo. Work-arounds appear to be opening BCG forum link in a new tab, duplicating a hung tab and closing the old, or restarting Safari. I've noticed the problem becomes more noticeable when multiple tabs are open in the browser. I don't believe this a BCG problem. I started having problems after Apple rolled out a maintenance update some months ago.

Just a thought, are you running any Safari extensions? I run a couple and I'm wondering if one of those could be involved, given that so few have observed this problem.

I think I've disabled all extensions and made the Forum site exempt from all constraints but worth a check thsnks

 

[TurtleCat]

No problems here with my Mac Studio M1. The only thing I've had is the occasional hiccup when trying to load the site. It'll just sit there and try to load. A few minutes later it'll go as fast as anything but that happens on all my devices and usually it's an indication of some weird problem with internet providers.

My iPhone 15 Pro Max version 17.5.1 logs me out every time I exit an app. Apple does not know what is causing this.

I have a 2016 Macbook pro running Monterey, the last OS the will run on this model. I have not been able to view photo content for the past 6 months. The only way I can reliably view photos on the forum is to not be signed in as a member. Kinda sucks in that I can't comment on all the beautiful photos. I have tried everything I could come up with short of buying a new MacBook pro. This is the only website I have an issue with.

It does seem to be something specific to the Forum website and MacOS Safari in my case a well - I don't get it with any other site or any other browser.
