Title sub it up, sometimes videos don't play on safari, on Airbnb the map glitches while moving, and most sites wont load the extra buttons like front/back/accept. Chrome works perfectly.

Anyone know why?

I attached two files of the same site one on safari and one on chrome

In my experience, no browser has Universal & Comprehensive Capabilities. As @Fishrrman notes, could be issues with a browser. Could be a wonkey web site, or something that only works on IE. Could be ... anything. Try another browser.

As stated in my title I did, Everything works fine on chrome, but not on safari, I do feel its a Flash issue, if it is what should I do?

Could it be javascript?
Could it be Flash?
how can I fix it if those are the issue , sometimes going back a page doesn't work, it will just glitch

I opened vistaprint.com in both safari and chrome with no issues. Click on the Refer a friend link in the bottom yielded exactly the same results for both browsers.

I'd recommend resetting Safari:

PS. Safari by default turns off autoplay videos/sound. You can override this within safari settings.

Safari and Chrome use nearly the same backend. Safari must have been corrupted or you have changed some settings somewhere.

This may be a job for the Apple Genius bar.

Go here in chrome and then safar and see what info it pops up ( we really want to see the agent string ):
