Zotero Web Connector keeps reloading Websites in Safari

With the new update the Zotero Web Connector keeps reloading webpages in Safari until there is an error message. It almost only happens on Google and other search engines.

Why do you think it’s from the Zotero Connector? Does it stop happening If you disable the Zotero Connector? Can you provide a Debug ID from the Zotero Connector for reproducing it?

Yes exactly it stops when I disable the Zotero Connector in the extension settings. I submitted a Debug Log und D1732255697. Thank you for quick response!

Start by updating to the latest version of Safari. Safari's web content process is crashing, which may just be a bug in your version of Safari.

The MacOS Update fixed it. Thank you!

I have been suffering the exact same problem. Can I ask which MacOS Update your Mac is updating to?

@Natsume_Kaguya: What version of macOS and Safari are you running?

Natsume_Kaguya · 2026-10-01T15:35:40+00:00

Thank for your fast response. I'm using mac os sequoia 15.7.3. Does this have any links to the given issues? I hope this can be useful to help me.

That's not the latest version of Sequoia.

Natsume_Kaguya · 2026-10-01T15:40:05+00:00

So, I should get it updated to avoid such issues? I will try to do that. Thanks for your help.

@Natsume_Kaguya I have updated to MacOS Golden Gate.
