Try rebooting your router.

If multiple browsers are affected then the problem may be with the router.

Reboot your router and see if the issue clears up.

Browser Hangs I am experiencing issues with my browser hanging on my MacBook Pro....this happens with Chrome and Safari....I ran a Bitdefender scan and removed some offending files.....however, the problem persists...I am able to access 3-5 web sites before experiencing the problem again...I have to restart to resume normal activity.....I removed my safari extensions and could not find the same thing for Chrome....since this is happening for multiple browsers it seems to be at a higher level (at least in my mind). Can anyone offer any suggestions?

Safari doesn’t open on my MacBook Pro. Safari does not function at all. ”Safari quit unexpectedly” appears and does not respond when I click reopen. The identical response keeps appearing. I’ve been exhausted by the continuous difficulties with Safari and just want to delete it and stick with Google Chrome, which works flawlessly. Apple processes are continually worsening.

web pages in chrome and safari wont't load unless I restart my mac When I open up chrome or safari web pages won't load. I get a message saying I can wait or exit. Nothing happens if I wait. Also, my mac won't restart without me having to force a shut down. Once I have restarted my machine I can access web pages for another day or so before the problem appears again.
