Help, My Safari doesn't show its icon and will not open?

So heres some help for you:
1. Im a new member, not an idiot when it comes to computers but in no way very expeirenced and knowledgable.
2. I recently was informed I had 0 disk space left, so I deleted a lot of stuff and feel I may have accidently deleted something..
3. My safari does not open
4. It doesn't show the traditional Compass Icon for Safari it is a blank white page..? With the Applications Logo on it.. ( see picture below )
5. Yes, I basically only registered so I can ask this question ...
6. What on earth can I do to fix it!
- Heres a pic..
Quickpost this image to Myspace, Digg, Facebook, and others!

Hi Lax561,
Welcome to discussions ...
I can see that Safari is NOT in the Dock ...
Did you check out if Safari is still in the Application folder ?? open Finder an go to the application folder.
If it's still there than you can drag a copy to the Dock.
Do the following ... Select Safari icon an hold down the mouse an the Option key ad the same time while dragging to the Dock. During dragging you will see a + (plus) next to the Safari icon.
Place the Safari icon in the Dock where you like it, next to the Fire Fox icon is maybe the best place to put it.
Post back with the results ...

  • Mail has different icon and will not open

    I haven't used Mail for a while, and I recently tried to open it only to find that something is very wrong. My Mail icon is not the traditional stamp icon that it used to be. Instead it looks like this: http://i29.tinypic.com/156d7jp.jpg
    That is the icon for the app in all of its locations, not just my dock.
    Also, when I click on it, it simply bounces once and then does nothing. The application will just not open.
    What's wrong??? Any help on getting it to work?? Thanks!!

    Something has wrecked the Mail program for you. You may be able to correct it by downloading the Combo Update for 10.5.8 (it is 759 MB, btw) and installing it over the existing system. But this "Mail app" may be too far gone. If so, you would then delete it from the Applications folder, and then reinstall it from the install disk, using Optional installs. You would then have to immediately apply the same Combo Update to advance it to Mail 3.6, in the proper build and version.

  • Help! My iPad is repeatedly restarting itself and will not open into the main screen.

    Hiya!
    Having a few issues with my iPad 2. Went to charge it as it presented with nil battery but when I went back to check on it an hour later it presented with the apple logo followed by the loading symbol with a blank page. It keeps doing this and I can't seem to reboot it. I have connected it to my Macbook but that doesn't seem to have helped.
    Please someone help me!!

    Try this first. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If that that doesn't work, you will probably have to restore the iPad.

  • My ipod states its disabled and will not function now ...  please help

    ipod states its disabled and will not work or allow me to reset from itunes?  any suggesstions? 

    You are going to have to restore it. Scince itunes does not connect to ur ipod because its disabled you are gonna have to put your ipod in DFU mode. Basicaly u have to hold the power and home button atthe same time for 10 second then release power button and keep holding home button for about 15 seconds ( all this you do it while ipod is connected to the computer) if it works, itunes will detect ur ipod in recovery mode and will give you the option to restore it.

  • I installed safari 8.0.1 and now my computer is slow and will not open some pages  can i uninstall

    I installed safari 8.0.1 and now my mac is really really slow and will not open some pages. Can I uninstall?

    Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them. In that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
    Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If not, do that now and see whether there's any change.
    If your browser is Safari, then from the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    and confirm. Any change?
    If you're running OS X 10.9 or later, select the Advanced tab in the Preferences window and uncheck the box marked
              Stop plug-ins to save power
    Any change?
    Quit and relaunch the browser. Any change?
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Enable Private Browsing in the Safari menu. Any change?
    Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
    If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
    If Parental Controls is active for any user, please turn it off and test. Any change?
    If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
    Open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Photos, if it's checked. Any change?
    Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
    If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
    If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?

    Please help!
    My Itunes says there is a corrupt file and will not open (IMac 2010). I couldn't fix it by reinstalling ITunes so I moved ITunes to trash. It will not delete from my trash as it is saying "Japanese.lproj" is in use. I have never opened or used "Japanese.lproj". I can't delete ITunes or open ITunes to close the Japanese.lproj, what do I do? Thank you for any help you can provide..

    It will not delete from my trash as it is saying "Japanese.lproj" is in use. I have never opened or used "Japanese.lproj".
    Interesting. This sort of thing is more common on Windows systems. Taken at face value, one of the iTunes program files (one of the Japanese language resources) is damaged.
    I'd try running your Disk Utility over your startup disk. Does it find/repair any damage? If so can you empty your trash and reinstall your iTunes successfully now?

  • In OSX 10.8.2 with Safari 6.0.2.  Many videos will not open in Safari

    I am running OSX 10.8.2 with Safari 6.0.2.  Many videos will not open on Safari but open on Chrome. I have enabled javascript in Safari Preferences. I get a javascript void message when copying the link of the non-working videos. In one discussion about javascript problems in Mountain Lion a Java Preferences Ap in Utilities was used to fix the problem.  I do not have a Java Preferences Ap in Applications\Utilities. I am stuck.

    I am having a similar issue, except mine is with a military site. The military sites use java althroughout for downloading files/image. The problem is that it never gives me the notice to enable java for these sites.
    I would like to have the ability to manually tell safari to allow java on a particular site so this isn't an issue.
    This would solve my issue and allow a way to activate java on sites that don't give you the option to allow it.
