Quiting a safari site that will not quit

We opened an email that had a web site that will not close without going into it further.

One possible thing to try:
Force-quit Safari (hold option key while click-holding on Safari dock icon).
Then relaunch Safari from the dock while holding down the shift key.

  • There are sites that will not open in Firefox that will open in Chrome...what is the problem?

    In Firefox I cannot get into my webpage of my website company. After speaking with several techs on told me to download Chrome and try it through that browser. He said Firefox runs slow and pages can time out.
    He was right with Chrome I have no problems at all accessing my website builder to make updates and changes...what's up with Firefox?

    If BlueHost uses cPanel for it web hosting control panel the problem isn't brand new, we have seen reports of problems with cPanel since like Firefox 13. or 14.0 was released. You may want to do a search of this forum for '''cPanel''' and see if anyone came up with a fix or a patch.

    Attempted to create a slideshow (version 9.3) and get the dreaded spinning ball that will not go away; iphoto locked up when open.  how do I get rid of the ball.  Have forced quit seveal times and opens with the spinning ball.

    Make a temporary, backup copy if you don't have a backup copy of the library (select the library and type Command+D) and  apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #1, followed by #3 and then #4
    Launch iPhoto and try again.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Popup on Safari that will not go away

    I have a popup on my Safari that will not go away, even when I restart my computer. It's to call a number immediately to get help, which I Googled & it is a scam. Can anyone please tell me how to get my Safari back to working right. Thanks
    Below is what the popup says:
    http://mac-system-issue.com
    Safari - Alert
    Suspicious Activity Might Have been Detected.
    Major Security Issue
    To fix it please call Support for Apple
    +1 800-680-0697 (Toll Free) immediately!

    Let me preface this by saying that I am in no way a tech person.  I just followed other people's advice and somehow it eventually worked for me.  I'm sure I didn't do it the easiest way or the fastest way, but I was trying anything I thought might help.
    1) First I tried overriding Safari with a new version but then realized that it was incompatible with Lion, so I upgraded to Yosemite.  Didn't help.
    2) I then opened Safari (same problem was happening) and did a force quit.  There are a number of ways to do that but I chose to click on the apple in the top-left corner, go down to force quit, and then select Safari.  Then I went in to Library > Safari and deleted the "LastSession.plist" and then emptied my trash so that it would be totally off my computer.  Then I reopened Safari holding the shift key.  When it opened, a box came up basically asking if I wanted to restore my last session.  Read it carefully and choose the option that will start a new session instead of reopening your old work. 
    I have no idea if the fact that I upgraded my Safari and operating system helped or changed anything.  You may be able to do everything in Step 2 and get the same result....but that's just how it all worked for me. 
    Hopefully it helps.  But I know this particular adware popup i a real bi-atch because it basically totally disables Safari. 

  • Safari for Windows will not log into IIS sites with Windows Authentication

    Safari for Windows will not log into IIS sites with Windows Authentication enabled. The IIS log has thousands of login attempts from Safari that result in 401 errors.
    I disable Windows Authentication on IIS and it works fine. The problem with that is that my Windows clients stop working properly with seemless logins when I disable this.
    The expected behavior is that Safari will work with basic authentication when NTLM does not work. That would result in a password prompt followed by a successful login instead of Safari stopping at "Loading" while hammering the IIS logs.
    It does this on all machines that I have tried.
    Any ideas or is this a bug?

    I noticed that as well. I have to wonder if it's due to not making note of the the different end of line characters between Mac OS X and Windows in code.

  • Safari and iTunes will not open on my Macbook Air after Migration Assistant

    I did the Migration Assistant via wireless (from Macbook Pro TO Macbook Air) last night and it did work. However, my Safari and iTunes will not open on my Macbook Air now. The error messages are as follows:
    Safari: "Safari quit unexpectedly. Click Reopen to open the application again. Click Report to see more detailed information and send a report to Apple."
      - I tried reopening the app, restarting, and shutting down the computer. Nothing has worked.
    iTunes: "The file 'iTunes Library.itl' cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes. Would you like to download iTunes now?"
      - I clicked "Download iTunes" but then another message comes up that all my software is up to date.
    Any help is very appreciated.

  • Safari 7.0 will not save PDF

    My Safari 7.0 will not save PDF files that can be opened, what do I need to do to get this function working again?

    Back up all data.
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, there should be a setting in its preferences such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected. Otherwise do as follows.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others — I don't have a complete list.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

    Reinstall OS X.
    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    OR
    Reinstall Snow Leopard without erasing the drive
    Do the following:
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.

  • Illustrator CS4 - frequently generates corrupt EPS files that will not parse

    I have used many versions of Illustrator prior to and including the CS lines.  I am currently running CS4 and this is the first time I have experienced this issue.  Approximately half of my EPS formatted illustrator files will not parse.  I use Quark Xpress 7 for my layout (never liked any of the Indesign programs).  If I try to generate a PDF with my CS4 generated EPS files placed at least 60% of the time the placed file will corrupt the PDF export resulting in no PDF being generated. 
    Further to this PDF export issue, if I attempt to parse the same EPS file into Photoshop, Photoshop will give me the error message "Could not complete your request because Photoshop was unable to parse the PostScript" and it will abort the attempt to open the file.
    Anyone else having Illustrator EPS file issues?
    Background info (if needed) Dual 2.0 Ghz, PowerMac G5, 8 gb RAM, running Tiger 10.4.11
    I have attached a sample Illustrator file that will not Parse.  It will open in Illustrator but not parse into Photoshop or if placed in Quark will not parse and allow for a PDF to be exported.

    Thanks for taking the time to write Steve. 
    I understand that I can drag and drop between programs.  Ultimately, when attempting to parse an EPS in photoshop I am merely doing it to confirm that the EPS is indeed corrupt. 
    As mentioned previously, I predominately use Quark Xpress for my page layout program and until I installed CS4 I have had zero complications with using EPS files.  Now I quite commonly can not export PDFs due to corrupt EPS files. 
    My question to the public is I am alone in this glitch or do others experience the same issue.  My first thoughts are that CS4 has a glitch and I should be expecting an update in the near future.  But, if I am the only person suffering from this issue than maybe I should be looking at my own software.

  • Safari 5.0 will not prompt to remember username and passwords

    Safari 5.0 will not prompt to remember username and passwords for new sites I joined. It will remember the old ones but not the new.

    Now nothing happens. Anyone got any suggestions?

    Hi,
    Go to ~/Library/Preferences and move the com.apple.keychainaccess.plist file to the Trash.
    Restart your Mac.
    If that didn't help, open Keychain Access (Applications/Utilities) Select Passwords on the left.
    Delete the *Safari Forms Autofill* keychain.
    Relaunch Safari.

    I used my Ipod while at the gym one day and now it's acting wacky.  I have tunes that will not download due to an "unexpected error (-50).  Anyone know what this is and how to fix it?

    looks like the gtk theme is not the problem. didnt really think it was, but the documentation was worth posting. the guys over at ubuntu look as though they have dealt with this in great detail, and have produced a few solutions, which may or may not work. i have decided to post these for anyone else who may have these problems.
    Solution 1 - new user creation:
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/104521
    Solution 2 - config file delete:
    http://ge.ubuntuforums.com/showthread.php?t=724439
    post number 6 here features the config file delete solution, as well as a link to another post which may be useful.
    judging by a google search on this problem and the number of responses that came up, the bonobo/daemon error is quite a common curse for the users of gnome, although much more common in distros such as ubuntu or fedora.
    i hope that this proves useful and if anyone has anything to add, please feel free. the more documentation the better.
    EDIT:
    another solution would be to remove gnome and reinstall it from scratch. (some please tell me if i am doing this correctly. thanks )
    1. clean your catch:
    pacman -Scc
    2. remove gnome, gnome extras, and whatever other gnome files you might have installed
    pacman -Rscn gnome gnome-extra etc...
    3. reinstall gnome and gnome extras
    pacman -Sy gnome gnome-extra
    4. reconfigure your desktop the way you want.

  • I have a box that will not go away, it says,  "To open JavaApplication, you need to install a Java SE 6 runtime.  Would you like to check for and install one?  If i push not now, it keeps popping up, if I push install, it says it's not available, help.

    I have a dialogue box that will not go away and it seems to have started when I upgraded to Mt.

    Finally there are two boxes to click.  One says not now.  If I click on that the box goes away for 2 to 3 seconds and then pops back up and WILL NOT go away.  If I click on the second box, Install, it says  The software is currently unavailable.  To install a Java SE 6 runtime later, open Java Application again.
    My confusion here is that I have no idea what the java application is, When I click "okay" on that box, the original box pops us again and WILL NOT go away. CGoing to the apple lega web site was no help.  My solution so far has been to drag the dialogue box as far to the lower right and out of the way as far as I can.  Help.

    Does this happen immediately after you log in? If so, one of your login items is probably causing it.
