Cant adjust volume after safari 5.1 update!

just done the safari 5.1 update on my 2007 imac, all went well and it works great, ive noticed since doing this though that i cant adjust the volume of my imac! when i press the volume keys it just has a sign indicating the volume cant be adjusted!
the sound however is outputting, its just i cant change the volume.
anyone else had this issue?
many thanks,
Jamie

HI Jaime,
Open System Preferences/Sound. Click the Output tab.
Make sure the Mute button is not selected at the bottom of that pane.
Try Resetting the PRAM
If that didn't help, go to /Library/Preferences and move the com.apple.soundpref.plist file to the Trash.

  • After Safari 5.1 update the following plugin is missing: Switchable Java Plug-in for WebKit

    Hi, after Safari 5.1 update the following plugin is missing: Switchable Java Plug-in for WebKit Java Switchable Plug-in (Cocoa) — von der Datei “JavaPluginCocoa.bundle”. How can I add this plugin manually? Because some applets are not working now! I restored the OS to Safari 5.0.5,
    now everything works fine. Is there any bugfix planned for Safari 5.1?

    Thanks, already managed to fix it with Time Machine Back-Up, however, you need only to restore the Safari.app file (can be found in Applications in Time Machine at a date before the last software upgrade to Safari 5.1)
    So, practically,
    go to Enter Time Machine
    -> browse (using the arrows at right hand bottom) to a date when everthing was still working
    -> go to Finder
    -> go to the hard drive (probably named Macintosh HD)
    -> go to Applications
    -> go to Safari.app
    -> highlight Safari.app by clicking on it
    -> hold 'ctrl' key and click again
    -> select from the drop menu that appears 'Get Info'
    -> next verify that is written 'version 5.0.5'
    -> close Info drop menu
    -> make sure the file Safari.app is still highlighted and click on 'Restore' under the arrows at righthand bottom of screen in Time Machine.
    Now you can leave Time Machine by clicking on Cancel on lefthand bottom
    Safari 5.0.5 will be added to the Applications under Safari.app (Safari 5.1 will also still be there and has the word (original) written behind it) drag this (original) marked file to the trash.
    That's all, works very good and means the whole system does not have to be re-installed.
    Hopefully Apple will cure this 5.1 version quickly - Make sure always to make a Time Machine Back-up before updating software!
    Hope this works for you all!

  • After Safari 7.06 update, whenever I connect to RSA Juniper Network Connect, my internet connection get disconnected. It was an issue with old Safari versions. It was fixed around 6 months back with one of Safari update. But, now it is broken again.

  • Keychain access problems after Safari 3.1 update?

    I recently installed the Safari 3.1 update. Two other updates were available and I installed them at the same time. One was a security update - I don't recall the other (and, strangely, the update log is blank). After this update, I received the message that "Safari has been changed and moved, so you need to grant permission for access to the Keychain." I selected "allow all" and things seemed to progress.
    The next time I started Safari, the same message. I again selected "allow all", but the program hung. I forced it to quit, tried again, same result. I ran the system maintenance programs, repaired permissions, etc. (using Cocktail) and got the same result. Keychain Access itself seems to hang and becomes unresponsive. Firefox appears to be unaffected, but I don't use it as much.
    The problem seems to be with Safari 3.1 - has anyone else experienced this problem? If I uninstall Safari, download and install 3.1 over again, is there a way to save my bookmarks and cookies to reimport?

    In installing the Safari Update (along with Quicktime 7.4.5, iTunes 7.6.2, and Security Update 2008-002 for Power PC), I found my Mac Mini slowed to a crawl and persistently displayed the "beach ball of death" for extended periods of time just starting up ANY program for the first time. Just restarting the computer took forever and trying to use Disk Utility did nothing.
    I have talked with a friend whose son had all sorts of problems with his newer i-mac upon installation of this Safari update. I am crawling along with my machine right now, not one bit happy.
    I have no answers, just a note to show I also am having problems since this update. Keychain? Never use it. I am thinking of just trying to re-install the older Safari version-3.04. Suggestions?

  • Menu Bar Items Missing after Safari 3.1 update

    Installed Safari 3.1 and restarted; menu bar items Time, Date, and Volume icon are now missing, and Safari 3.1 and Mail crash on launch. Trashed com.apple.systemuiserver.plist and restarted--no difference.
    Tried reinstalling the 10.4.11 PPC update and Safari 3.0.4 and Mail now work, but menu bar icons still missing. System Preferences for these items stick, but nothing appears in menu bar. This seems to be a recurring issue with Mac OS X, but Apple isn't helping people by telling them how to fix it, or changing their updates so it doesn't happen to begin with.
    Ideas or suggestions to fix this are appreciated.

    What are permissions?
    Every file and folder on a Mac OS X hard drive has a set of permissions—settings that determine which user(s) have access to each item, and exactly what that access is. For example, permissions dictate whether or not a particular user can open and edit a particular file. But permissions also determine which items the operating system—or specific parts of it—can access and modify, and which files are accessible by applications.
    What does repairing permissions do?
    The Repair Disk Permissions function—the process that actually performs the task of repairing permissions—examines certain files and folders on your Mac’s hard drive to see if their current permissions settings are what Mac OS X expects them to be; if discrepancies are found, the offending permissions are changed to match the expected settings.
    (In Mac OS X 10.3 and later, repairing permissions also performs one other, unrelated, task: If the invisible /tmp symbolic link—which is linked to the /private/tmp directory—is missing, the link will be recreated.)
    Why is it necessary to repair permissions?
    If permissions on particular files are “incorrect”—i.e., not what Mac OS X expects them to be or not what they need to be for your Mac’s normal operation—you can experience problems when the operating system tries to access or modify those files. For example, you may have trouble logging in to your account, printing, launching applications, or even starting up your Mac. Similarly, if an application—from Apple or a third-party developer—needs access to a particular file or folder to function, and the permissions on that item have changed in a way that prevents such access, the application may not function properly (or at all). The Repair Disk Permissions function can fix such problems by ensuring that certain files have the correct permissions.
    There’s also a security element here: Many system-level files have permissions set a particular way so that applications or users that shouldn’t be meddling with those files can’t. If the permissions on certain system-level files somehow get changed so that access to those files is no longer restricted, you’ve got the potential for a major security issue. Repairing permissions can resolve such issues by resetting permissions on those files to prevent unauthorized access.
    How do I repair permissions?
    The Repair Disk Permissions function is part of Apple’s Disk Utility (in /Applications/Utilities). After launching Disk Utility, select the desired disk—generally your startup disk—in the list to the left, then click the First Aid tab. At the bottom of the First Aid panel, click the Repair Disk Permissions button. (You could instead use the Verify Disk Permissions option to preview any potential repairs before performing them, but for most users there’s little benefit from this extra step.)
    Permissions can also be repaired via the shell (Terminal) by using the command sudo diskutil repairPermissions /. However, it’s unlikely that the typical user will ever need to perform the task in this manner. It’s useful if for some reason Disk Utility itself won’t launch, or for repairing permissions on a remote Mac when connected via Remote Login (SSH), but otherwise you’re just as well served using Disk Utility.
    How does the Repair Disk Permissions function know what the “correct” permissions are?
    When you use Apple’s Installer utility to install software (such as Mac OS X itself or an OS X update), the installation package (the .pkg file you double-click to begin installation, or that Software Update downloads in the background for an automatic installation) generally leaves behind a receipt—a smaller Mac OS X package that includes information about every file installed, including the permissions each file should have. This receipt is placed in /Library/Receipts. When you run the Repair Disk Permissions function, it examines the receipts in the /Library/Receipts directory of the disk being repaired—which means the feature works only on volumes with Mac OS X installed—and compares the information in the receipt with the actual files on your drive. If the Repair Disk Permissions function finds a file with permissions that differ from what a receipt claims they should be, that file’s permissions are reset to their receipt-specified values. (If you’re curious about the information contained in a receipt, the easiest way to view it is to use the utility Pacifist; simply drag and drop the appropriate receipt into the Pacifist window and you’ll be presented with a list of all files installed by the similarly-named installation package, along with each file’s original permissions.)
    It’s worth noting here that although the function is called “Repair Disk Permissions,” what is actually happening is that files’ permissions are being reset or restored to a particular state. It’s possible—though not common—for a particular file’s permissions to differ from what a receipt claims they should be without those permissions actually being “broken.”
    Are all files affected by Repair Disk Permissions?
    No. As you may have inferred from the above description, only those files installed using OS X’s Installer utility and whose installation packages leave behind a proper receipt in /Library/Receipts are affected by the Repair Disk Permissions function. This means that most of the files affected by the Repair Disk Permissions function are system-level files, application files, or system add-ons—not applications installed by drag-and-drop, and not your documents or other user-level files.
    If repairing permissions is useful in general, why doesn’t Apple recommend it as routine maintenance?
    Apple does, quite explicitly:
    It’s a good idea to repair disk permissions as a regular maintenance task after upgrading or installing new software.
    That’s taken from Mac Help—in both Panther and Tiger—right on your Mac. Similar statements can be found in other Support articles, one of which is:

  • T60 Laptop Doesn't Display On-Screen Volume After Hotkey Features Integration Update

    I have a ThinkPad T60 (2008-HC6) laptop running Windows 8 Pro (32-bit). Today (1-24-2013), I installed the "Hotkey Features Integration for Windows 8" update that was released on January 18, 2013. After reboot, the on-screen indicator that pops up when I change the volume on my laptop by pressing the volume up, volume down, or mute keys doesn't show up. The keys work fine, but the indicator doesn't display.
    I've already tried looking for a solution online. One common solution, installing Lenovo Energy Management, didn't solve my problem. No other software was changed on my laptop between when the power indicator last worked and when I installed the Hotkeys update.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I figured out the problem was with the "On Screen Display" portion of the update. This particular update has two parts to it. First, it adds the "Lenovo Patch Utility" program. Second, it updates the "On Screen Display" program, assuming that an older version was already on the computer being updated. Adding the "Lenovo Patch Utility" didn't cause any harm, but updating the "On Screen Display" prevents the on-screen volume indicator from displaying.
    Ultimately, what I ended up doing was removing the "On Screen Display" with the same utility that I used to update it. Then I downloaded the next newest version of the utility and installed that utility's version of the "On Screen Display" program.
    My on-screen volume indicator is now back and running fine.

  • Powerbook fails to startup after Safari, Java, QT Updates

    I have a 15" Powerbook G4 with OS X.4.2 and just ran software update, while connected to the power supply - it is not running on battery power. After installing the QuickTime, Java, and Safari updates (it has been away from a network for a while) I got the click Restart screen. After clicking Restart the computer shutdown. I hit the power button, heard the hard drive spin up for a few seconds, then a little squeak, silence, then nothing. I tried to power up with option-command-p-r thinking maybe I could reset the PRAM. Same result. I powered on and inserted my OS X.4 DVD (mistake here) and held down the C key. No change, but now the DVD is stuck in the Superdrive. I then tried the ctrl-command-power button until I heard the long tone, released the keys, then nothing. I've also tried removing and swapping the RAM. I should also mention that I get no power light on the front of the powerbook. If I hold down the power button for five seconds I get the long tone and rapidly flashing power light, then the HD stops and silence. I'm guessing the machine is dead. Everything I have read in my Apple Service Technician course manuals says that this is a sign of logic board failure. (At least I have AppleCare).
    Anyone have any ideas? I also installed the updates on a G5 and now it has been freezing up at various points and the only way to fix is hold the power-button for 5 seconds and then force a shutdown and restart.
    Any help is appreciated, as I found nothing like this on the Apple discussions or tech info. All those issues report at least making it to a gray screen, mine stays black the whole time.

    hello, I'm having the same problem w/ my PB, i did an update too isight, which i dont use, but just to keep the automatic update in silence! lol, well I'm waiting for some help too, but if u have a CD stock inside try this, press F12 (eject) right after pressing the power button, i hope this give u a little help

  • Mail acting up after Safari 3.2 Update.

    Hello All,
    Not sure weather this topic should be in the Safari Thread or here but here goes: After updating to Safari 3.2, all of a sudden Mail keeps asking for the passwords for all three of my email accounts. I type in my passwords for all three, then 5-10 minutes later, it asks for them again. I've had no problems with Mail until the Safari update. Has anyone else experienced this?
    Thanks, and warmest regards,
    Mike.

    My wife and I are experiencing the same symptoms and although after entering the correct passwords and checking the remember box , It still happens and now is happening on my iphone as well.
    We are also verizon subscribers. I searched through my keychain and preference files without finding anything unusual. However, canceling and then going to the " mailbox " menu and highlighting take all accounts online allows you to use your mail until the next time it pops up.
    PS it does not affect our IMAP .mac or .me accounts.
    Come on Apple, I didn't have any "phishing" problems anyway. ( The reason for the update)
    And I have six POP accounts....
    Hopefully someone over there figures out a patch or fix for us soon. It is the little things that get to us and also the little things that make us happy.
    Happy Holidays to everyone

    Hi wendylee1972,
    You might find the following resource helpful in troubleshooting iPhone battery life:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Battery life seems short
    Click (www.apple.com/batteries/iphone.html) for tips on how to prolong iPhone's battery life.
    Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    Connect iPhone to iTunes and restore iPhone.
    If the screen shows a low-battery image, the battery is low on power and needs to charge for up to ten minutes before you can use it.
    When charging iPhone, make sure to leave it charging until it is fully charged. You'll know the battery is fully charged when the battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen looks like this .      
    Note: When charging using a computer, don't connect iPhone to a keyboard. Also, the computer must be turned on and not in sleep or standby mode. If iPhone is connected to a computer that's not turned on or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPhone battery may drain.
    Note: Charging with a FireWire-based power source is not supported, except on original iPhone.
    If you continue to have battery-life issues, we may need to isolate the issue further. It might be best to restore your iPhone as new, then test once more:

  • External Drive not supported, cant burn CDs, after 10.5.8 update

    After having spent just about a month sorting out one massive irritation I now get another one.
    My internal drive is not working, (disc stuck inside and I gave up on it almost a year ago. Please don't give any advice on how to get it out, it's a goner OK - not worth the fuss nor the $).
    So I bought an external La Cie burner which has worked fine on 10.5.7 for well, almost a year. Since I updated yesterday to 10.5.8 i get a Finder burn message saying the drive is not supported.
    What do I do then? I know this must be really easy (I hope). Thanks in advance

    Thanks but there is no latest update. The Firmware is vLA00, current.
    So what is going on? Why do they do 'up'dates when it's just a downdate fps....
    OK rant over. What do I do now? How can I get back to 10.5.7? Should I even'
    Help! Thanx in advance.
    Oh, by the way. In System Profiler's > disc burning > burn support column it says it does have support
    (Generic Drive Support). So why does it say it doesn't support the drive when i try to use it?

    I have just found out from the Scifinder site at
    http://libinfo.wordpress.com/2011/07/27/scifinder-web-java-plug-in-available-for -safari-5-1/
    that Apple fixed this with a download, dated 20 July 2011;
    Here is the link: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1421
    After quitting all browsers and installing the dmg, Safari 5.1 still wouldn't work with it until I re-started my computer - perhaps this just flushed a cache and I could perhaps have had the same result just from flushing caches.
    If Apple would only look at these threads and inform us!
    But I suppose by now most of you have found this anyway.

  • SOLVED - T500 - Lost sound volume after a very recent update

    I keep my T500 current with new drivers, however in a recent update (I do not know which) I lost almost all the volume on my speakers and headphone.
    Has anyone experienced this?
    Has anyone found a solution to this problem?
    Thanks,
    Persio.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    ONeill, thanks for your response and interest in helping.
    I am running Win 7 Ultimate x64.
    I have just finished doing a series of  tests with NO success.
    All my drivers are current with the Lenovo Support Site drivers' versions.
    I have unistalled the Conexant driver using the Device Driver screen and let the system reinstall (PnP).
    I have unistalled the Hot Key Drivers, tested without them installed, and reinstalled them.
    I have reinstalled the Conexant driver fresh from the Lenovo Support Site.
    The problem I am having is the following:
    In a silent room, using the SmartAudio aplet from Control Panel,  I can barely hear the sounds with the volume set at 100%. This is true for the internal speakers and for a headphone plugged into the system.
    This indicates to me that the it is a volume issue.
    I would appreciate your comments and suggestions.
    Persio.

  • After safari 7.1 update, bookmarks reverted back to Lion

    Macbook Pro (late 2013 / i7) running 10.9.5.
    Just updated to 10.0.5 and Safari 7.1. Now my bookmarks have all reverted back to the way they were way back in Lion. They were all in alphabetical order, under different categories, and now they are all jumbled up, even some that were deleted are back.
