Comment (by rossagrant):

 I've figured this out Shane but I'm not sure if it's been my WP setup or
 whether WP is trying to do stuff a little differently where Apple Safari
 struggles.

 Debugging this on my iPhone gave me this error:

 ‘XMLHttpRequest cannot load http://www.staging.mysite.com/wp-admin/admin-
 ajax.php.

 Origin http://staging.mysite.com is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-
 Origin.’

 So it was to do with a mix of www. and non www. prefixes.

 To allow this kind of cross site scripting securely you can add this to
 your htaccess file:

 Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin http://staging.mysite.com

 And everything works just fine.

 Any ideas if this would be caused by my initial WP install – even though
 from what I can tell it’s set to www.

 My live site doesn’t have any issues – so maybe it just was my staging
 site’s setup.

 I guess we need to figure if wp-admin/ajax.php is trying to mix the two
 url paths, or whether this was due to my initial setup.

 I'm not great with php though, so someone with a deeper knowledge might be
 best to take a look.

 Hope this helps.
