Every single time a webpage finishes loading, the browser crashes. It does it on mobile and regular sites. I've found it also crashes quite often watching videos. It never used to do this and I don't know what the problem is. I've tried clearing all cache, history, cookies, web page memory, restarting my ipod, checked for latest firmware, closing running apps, and nothing works. Is there anything known to work that I'm not listing here that I have tried????

Ipod touches only have like 256 RAM, try closing out some of the previous apps by double clicking the home button and x'ing all the apps you are not using. I blame iOS 5 for the crashes, ever since they were upgraded to iOS 5 they have gotten a lot more laggier, and crash a lot more often even when in apps.

If you have a jail-broken iPod it's causing apps to overwrite each others commands therefore causing safari to crash. If it isn't jail-broken try restoring it to factory settings.



1. Open iTunes and plug in your iPod

2. Click restore iPod

3. Follow the on screen structions for the rest of the proccess is personal preferences.



Last if that didnt work try doing this.

Settings --> General --> Reset --> Erase All Content and Settings



Good luck.

If it's jailbroken, some apps can close unexpectedly.
