Is Google Search Not Loading on Safari? Here’s the Fix

Safari is the default web browser for MacBook and iOS, running on Apple’s WebKit engine. Safari browser is smooth. loads the page quickly and comes with some cool customization features. Though the browser is pretty stable and works without any issues, but still some of the users may face issues while trying to access Google Search on Safari. Either the Google Search keeps loading or is not able to open.

There may be several reasons why Google search may not work on the Safari browser on your Macbook, but the most common is the issue with DNS servers or Browser cache. Today in this post, I will talk about some of the best solutions to fix Google search not loading in Safari for Mac.

1. Change DNS Address

DNS is like a directory of IP addresses that are retrieved when a browser requests one. The MacBook sets a predefined DNS taken from the ISP. This DNS can sometimes not be able to connect with certain IPs temporarily. Just change the DNS to Google DNS servers and fix the Google Search not loading issue.

1. Open System Preferences
   
2. Open the Network option in the preferences
   
3. Click the Advanced option from the WiFi connection tab.
   
4. Here click on the DNS tab.
5. Click on the plus icon and change the DNS servers to Google DNS, and hit OK.
6. Use the following Google DNS server.

   8.8.8.8
   
   8.8.4.4
   
   2001:4860:4860::8888
   
   2001:4860:4860::8844

Once done, restart the browser and check if the Google Search loading issue is fixed.

2. Clear Safari Cache

The cache is a set of data that stores the site’s data and other web information. If cache build-up occurs, some sites may not load; thus, deleting the Cache will fix the Safari browser error.
