    I have been using Firefox viewing Komando everyone was fine. I switched to Safari to watch and ai am having problems viewing the downloads Safari works just great on other websites viewing videos on Safari I get the spinning wheel for about 1/2 second ever minute or so, it is very annoying If I switch back to firefox i have no problem. Does any one have suggestion as to what this dum dum is doing wrong? Thanks Bill

    I use MacOS Catalina ver 100.15.7

    Hello 266694,

    Next time you are viewing, try clearing out the cache on Safari.
    1. Click on the Safari drop-down menu and select Preferences.
    2. Click the Advanced tab. Select the Show Develop menu in menu bar checkbox and close the Preferences window.
    3.Select the Develop drop-down menu. Click Empty Cache.

    As you know, the famous Apple spinning wheel means memory is overloaded. I use CCleaner on my iMac. You can go to the AppStore, and search for cleaners.

    You may also want to consider adding more Ram to your Mac. When I updated my
    Mac two years ago, I added a fast SSD (solid state drive) and doubled my Ram to 8 Gigs, and my 2009 Mac works like new.
