Hi,
I'm using an iMac that is a couple of years old and I've never had an issue with it, however one website won't load on it and just stays as a white screen. This is my personal site, so it's a bit of an issue. The site loads on all of the PCs in my house and Android phones using wifi, and will load on my iPhone if I use 3G and not wireless. My ISP (Comcast) said it was probably an issue with my computer then. Any advice? I've tried opening the site in Firefox and Safari, clearing my cache, etc. However the fact that even my iphone had issues accessing it on wifi whereas Android didn't makes me think it's a purely Mac issue.

What is the URL to this site? If we know, we can test it on our own devices and configurations to see if there is a pattern.

I had the same exact issue with my MBP 15 2.53 I5. It only happened when logging into Wells-Fargo. It just stayed on the white screen. The only way to gain access was to quit Safari and try again. It would eventually load. The problem seemed to go away on its own after the last Safari update. Never did figure out what happened.

Did you check for any updates?

BTW, Google Chrome and Firefox never exhibited that issue, only Safari.

Seems like a browser problem.
