Finder: Safari Community Toolbar Issue

While searching through Finder I will almost always receive a pop-up window that is titles "Community Toolbar" It then proceeds to inform me that the Safari I am currently running is out of date and the toolbar cant be opened. However everything on the computer is update especially Safari

There is another poster, posting the exact same issue your having.
It can be seen here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2243774&tstart=0
If the solution provided work; the poster has not let it be known.
A 3rd party plugin is usually the cause of such pop-ups.

How to get rid of the community toolbar in safari

That toolbar/ct plugin causes problems for all who install it!
Close Safari, then locate and delete the following files and it should be gone:
/Library/Application Support/Conduit
/Library/InputManagers/CTLoader
/Library/Receipts/ctloader.pkg
/Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg
/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle
/Users/<User name>/Library/Application Support/Conduit
where / is the root library on your Hard Disk.
If you are running Snow Leopard you should also look here:
Library/launchAgents/com.conduit.loader.agent.plist
Library/Application support/conduit plugins
Note: Safari does not support any third-party toolbars except those supplied as an extension to Safari via the Extension Gallery.

Safari community toolbar

When in Safari, I keep getting the following error message---"We're sorry but the Safari browser version you are currently using does not support the community toolbar."
How do I fix the problem??

Hi,
That toolbar isn't compatible with later versions of Safari. Follow the paths...
/Library/Application Support/ Move the Conduit file to the Trash.  
 /Library/Application Support/ Move all of these files to the Trash: SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle  
/Library/InputManagers/ Move CTLoader to the Trash. 
/Library/Receipts/ Move ctloader.pkg to the Trash.  
/Library/ScriptingAdditions/ Move any Conduit / CTLoader related files in that folder to the Trash.  
/Users/<User name>/Library/Application Support/ Move Conduit to the Trash.  
Relaunch Safari.

"Community toolbar pop-up window on Safari

How do get rid of the message in Safari: "Community toolbar not supported by this version of Safari"? This is most irritating pop-up!

Look in Safari > Preferences > Extensions tab. Delete the community toolbar if you don't want it or Click Updates if you want it updated.
Regards

When Safari launches it keeps telling me I can't get a Community Toolbar. I don't care. I just want this message to go away. Any thoughts?

Always getting 'Community Toolbar' warning box...

I am constantly having the Safari Community Toolbar warning box appear on my Desktop; whether I am running Safari or FireFox.
The box always says:
"We’re sorry, but the Safari browser version you are currently using does not support the community toolbar."
How do I get rid of this constant distraction?
Thanks,
RL

Carolyn,

Conduit/Plugins/cttoolbar.bundle/Contents/MacOS/ct_plugins
SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle
/Library/InputManagers/
CTLoader/ctloader.bundle/Contents/MacOS/ctloader

Safari does not support community toolbar ive searched my computer for the following like people have said in similar posts but none seem to work /Library/Application Support/Conduit /Library/InputManagers/CTLoader /Library/Receipts/ctloa

hey all i know that there have been many post about this community toolbar thing that pops up when opening Safari
i have searched my computer for the things that have been posted in the other posts to delete
/Library/Application Support/Conduit     (no conduit in folder)
/Library/InputManagers/CTLoader         (i dont have input managers i have input methods but still no CTLoader)
/Library/Receipts/ctloader.pkg                (no ctloader.pkg)
/Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg      (nothing in this one either)
/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle         (NADA)
/Users/<User name>/Library/Application Support/Conduit           (NOTHING EITHER)
where / is the root library on your Hard Disk.
If you are running Snow Leopard you should also look here:
Library/launchAgents/com.conduit.loader.agent.plist
Library/Application support/conduit plugins
i have pretty much looked everywhere i dont even know where this thing came from
can anyone lend some advise i really do not want to take the 2 hour ride to apple to get this off my computer
thanks so much

When you see this path:   /Library   That is your root Library.
Open a Finder window.
Select MacintoshHD in the Sidebar on the left then open the LIbrary folder then the Application Support folder, then InputManagers folder, the Receipts folder.
For this path: ~/Library/Application Support (your Home library)
The Tilde character ~ represents your Home folder.
From that same Finder window select your Home folder in the Sidebar. It has a small house icon. Open the Library folder then the Application Support folder.
Move all the Conduit/CT associated files you posted above to the Trash.
Try Safari.
I've yet to find the launchAgents.plist file in any Safari crash report in years. I don't think that's a problem.
Another way to find files on your hard drive is to go to your Finder.
From the menu bar at the top of your screen click Go / Go to Folder.
Example. Type in: /Library/ApplicationSupport   click Go
Or type in: ~/Library/Application Support   click Go

I keep getting an error message that says the safari browser version you are currently using does not support the community toolbar. how do I fix it?

Everytime I open my imac I get an error message that says: "We're sorry but the Safari browser version your are currently using does not support the community toolbar." I can't see where it affects anything else, but getting an error message on an imac, just doesn't seem right, ya know? How can I get rid of the message.

Apparently an add-on named Community Toolbar was installed at one time, and is causing the problem. To get rid of it, quit Safari, then throw away these files -
Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Conduit
Macintosh HD/Library/InputManagers/CTLoader
Macintosh HD/Library/Receipts/ctloader.pkg
Macintosh HD/Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg
Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle
Macintosh HD/Users/<User name>/Library/Application Support/Conduit
Note - if you are using Lion, the Library folder in your home folder (user name folder) is hidden. To get into it, in Finder open the Go menu; with that menu open, press and hold the Option key. An item "Library" will be added to the list, and can then be selected. That will open the Library folder in your home folder.

Why when i click to open safari does it keep telling me the safari browser version i am using does not support the community toolbar ?

Why when I am clicking into safari does a message appear telling me that the Safari Browser version I am using does not support the community toolbar ???

You installed the Conduit spyware. To remove it, back up all data, then follow these instructions.
If the instructions don't work, proceed as follows.
Triple-click the line below to select it:
~/Library/Application Support/Conduit
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). From the Finder menu bar, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder…
Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return. A Finder window should open with a folder named "Conduit" selected. If it does, delete the selected item.
Repeat with this line:
/Applications/Toolbars
Now you're deleting a folder named "Toolbars". You may be prompted for your login password. Next, copy this line:
/Library
Select Go to Folder… again and paste. Don't delete the Library folder. Delete only the following items inside it, if they exist.
Application Support/Conduit
InputManagers/CTLoader
LaunchAgents/com.conduit.loader.agent.plist
ScriptingAdditions/ct_scripting.osax
Close the Finder windows you opened. Log out and log back in.
I've seen a report that Conduit may be bundled with a scam "utility" called "MacKeeper." If you installed MacKeeper, you should remove it according to the developer's instructions. It's worthless and causes many problems reported on this site.

I get a message that says "Safari browserversionyou are currently using does not support the community toolbar

I get an annoying message everytime I open Safari. It reads - "Safari browser version you are currenty using does not support the commuinty toolbar" How do I get rid of this

victoria Hamlin wrote:
it didn't... but at least I know where to find the Library- any other ideas?
Instead of being installed as a standard plug-in, the Community Toolbar uses the system loader "launchd" to load the plugin on-demand whenever Safari is opened. You will need to remove three components that are installed, starting with the binary files.
The binary file is the actual toolbar application, and is located in the /Library/InputManagers/CTLoader/ folder. Removing the entire CTLoader folder will remove the application and other files that are installed along with the toolbar. If you just care to quickly stop the toolbar from loading, doing this will be enough to keep it from loading.
With the binary file removed, the toolbar will no longer launch; however, the system will still try to load it when Safari is opened because the system launcher instructions file is still installed. While having these instructions present will not cause a decrease in performance, removing them will prevent the system from outputting errors and warnings in the system log files.
Removing only this instructions file is another way to stop the toolbar from loading; however, it will require either the use of the following command in the Terminal (done before removing the file) or a restart of the system after removing the file to unload the instructions from the system loader and prevent the toolbar from launching.
sudo launchctl unload /Library/LaunchAgents/com.conduit.loader.agent.plist
The final components to the toolbar are some resources that it uses, which are relatively benign and will become unused "orphaned" files when the other components of the toolbar are removed. These files are all located in the /Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/ folder in a directory called Conduit. Remove this directory and the toolbar in its entirety will be removed.

Safari pop up telling me my browser doesn't support community toolbar.

Every time I open Safari I get a pop up box that says: We're sorry, but the Safari browser version you are currently using does not support the
community toolbar.
Can some one tell me how to get rid of it?

In the Finder, go to the Applications/Utilities folder and open Java Preferences.
Make sure there is a check next to "Enable Applet PlugIn and Web Start".
Depending on your Jave App, you may need to go into the Advanced Tab and enable additional items.
Be aware that enabling Jave to run in your browser makes you somewhat vulnerable to some malware that is currently attacking Mac systems, so be careful in clicking on sites that you are not sure about.
Also, be sure to run Software Update and install the latest Java updates.

Community toolbar error message on safari

Error message: I'm using Mac OS 10.6.8 Snow Leopard
"We're sorry, but the Safari browser version you are currently using does not support the community toolbar"
What should i do do solve this problem??

That toolbar/ct plugin seems to cause problems for all who install it!
If you are running Tiger or Leopard:
Close Safari, then locate and delete the following files and it should be gone:
/Library/Application Support/Conduit
/Library/InputManagers/CTLoader
/Library/Receipts/ctloader.pkg
/Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg
/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle
/Users/<User name>/Library/Application Support/Conduit
where / is the root library on your Hard Disk.
If you are running Snow Leopard you should also look here:
Library/launchAgents/com.conduit.loader.agent.plist
Library/Application support/conduit plugins
Also, as mentioned by Gilli2000:
Library/Receipts - If you read it, it has information in it at the bottom referring extensively to "CT" and "community toolbar".
Maybe it is harmless, but trash those items anyway!
If you are running Lion:
From the Finder Menu bar, select Go ▹ Go to Folder, and in the box that opens write:
~/Library/Application Support/Conduit
Delete the second item if it is there.
Now select Go to Folder again and enter /Library
From the folder that opens, delete the following items if they are there (you may need your login password):
Application Support/Conduit
InputManagers/CTLoader
LaunchAgents/com.conduit.loader.agent.plist
ScriptingAdditions/ct_scripting.osax
then close the folder. Now select Go to Folder again and write: /Applications/Toolbars
Delete that item and close the Finder windows you opened. Log out then log back in, and you should be rid of it.
Note: Safari does not support any third-party toolbars except those supplied as an extension to Safari via the Extension Gallery.

All of a sudden I cannot launch Safari because of popup saying cannot support community toolbar?

I am getting pop up saying "this version of Safari browser cannot support community toolbar" therefore I cannot launch Safari. ????

Try Safari forum. I know the issue with toolbars has come up in the past so you could also search this forum.
Security updates and new versions often do affect extensions and functionality.

I am unable to connect to the internet, there is a pop-up that says "We're sorry, but the Safari browse version you are currently using dos no support the community toolbar". My computer does say that it is connected to the internet until I open Safari.

I am unable to connect to the interent. At the top of the screen my computer says that I am connected. When I open up Safari there is a pop up that say "Community Toolbar We're sorry, but the Safari browser version you are currently using does not support the community toolbar" and when the Safari page opens up it says "You are not connected to the Internet. Safari can't open the page .... because your computer isn't connected to the Internet." I have tried Network Diagnostics and tried to reset Sfari, empty Cache as well as deleted all of my interent history. I am unable to use Time Machine because I never set it up. If someone knows how to help I would very much appreciate it!!

Some instructions for removing Community Toolbar are available in this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/15868085#15868085
