I've found this to be a horrible issue on my Mac and it's not viewer specific.

Both web-based search and profiles rarely load, hang up on refresh and lockup/crash:

 

SL Viewer 3

SL Viewer 3 Beta

SL Development

Exodus Beta

Firestorm (latest release)

 

The longer I'm logged in the less chance i have of either actually loading.  If I do a search immediately after login, and allow it to cache and just minimize, i can use search again (sometimes).

 

As for profiles, it's truly useless, especially on a busy SIM.  Requesting a profile that can take up to 5 mins to load (or maybe never load) it's just flusterating.

Any other mac users having issues with these web-based features loading?

I'm on Windows so salt this...

It sounds like a connection problem. I suggest you read through: Troubleshoot Your #SL Connection. It is for Windows. But, you'll be able to figure out how to accomplish the same tests on a Mac.

Mac's are known to have DNS problems. For browsing the web they problems are not overly noticable. But, for connecting to SL the problem is pronounced. The article tells how to resolve those problems.

Yes, I'm having the same issue, and got the same lame answer of connection speeds.  so I went to the Phoenix Viewer which doesn't seem to have a problem.

 

Basically, all my Profiles just say "loading"  for hours, days, weeks.  

 

Funny how I'm able to watch Netflix on the same computer without issue.
