How to Block favicon safari 7.1

How to Block favicon safari 7.1

Sorry I don't think it's reasonable to expect Apple cater to every single need. Should there be a preference for disabling gifs, pngs or jpegs how about an option for disabling gifs that are blue but only on Mondays when it's raining? There are too many possibilities to cater for everyone and there are other browsers that already work how you desire.
OS X used to have preferences for different Dock styles, but Apple have been removing those options for sometime now. Your final sentence make it clear you already understand how Apple progresses. I have been on the receiving end of Apple's arbitrary changes too, but there came a point where I just got over it & found alternatives.
'defaults write' settings played havoc with users updating to 10.9 - some users had disabled screenshot shadows, that resulted in System Preferences that had sections of UI totally missing, it took weeks to unpick the reason for the fault! These edge case 'hidden settings' can be more trouble than you imagine. They conflict in new & interesting ways with every update.
You can ask Apple to revert the change, but it doesn't seem like something they would do. There is a simple way to evaluate possible feature requests - Ask yourself 'How does this benefit Apple?'

I tested the 'ugly hack' & it worked for me but an extension is the correct way to resolve it. Another option is to setup a proxy server that blocks them from downloading on any device on the network. Ultimately if you don't want to investigate a solution you are part of the problem.

  • How to block popup windows that opens up on clicking a link?

    Hi,
    How to block pop-up windows that opens up when a link is clicked? The feature in IE is to set the Blocking level as 'High: Block all pop-ups (Ctrl + Alt to override)' in Pop-up Blocker settings.
    Is there a similar feature in Mac?
    Thanks & appreciate the support

    In the menu bar, Safari > Preferences > Security > Web Content
    Some popups will not be blocked by this method, but blockable popups will be.

    HI,
    Sorry, blocking Flash Player plugin isn't possible but you can uninstall it.
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
    The problem with that is if you visit sites that require Flash content, you won't be able to view it and the page will likely freeze or crash Safari.

  • How to block a particular spam website that keeps appearing

    Hi,
    When I access a particular website another website keeps appearing telling me to change my browser to theirs - very annoying! How can I get Safari to block this website so it cannot load and stop me using my chosen website. I have Safari 7.1 and am running Mavericks 10.95. I am not that computer literate so the simplest answer the better! Many thanks. Brendan

    If you are having an immediate problem with ads popping up see The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Guide and AdwareMedic.
    Open Safari, select Preferences from the Safari menu. Click on Extensions icon in the toolbar. Disable all Extensions. If this stops your problem, then re-enable them one by one until the problem returns. Now remove that extension as it is causing the problem.

    Fix Some Browser Pop-ups That Take Over Safari.
    Common pop-ups include a message saying the government has seized your computer and you must pay to have it released (often called "Moneypak"), or a phony message saying that your computer has been infected, and you need to call a tech support number (sometimes claiming to be Apple) to get it resolved. First, understand that these pop-ups are not caused by a virus and your computer has not been affected. This "hijack" is limited to your web browser. Also understand that these messages are scams, so do not pay any money, call the listed number, or provide any personal information. This article will outline the solution to dismiss the pop-up.
    Quit Safari
    Usually, these pop-ups will not go away by either clicking "OK" or "Cancel." Furthermore, several menus in the menu bar may become disabled and show in gray, including the option to quit Safari. You will likely have to force quit Safari. To do this, press Command + option + esc, select Safari, and press Force Quit.
    Relaunch Safari
    If you relaunch Safari, the page will reopen. To prevent this from happening, hold down the 'Shift' key while opening Safari. This will prevent windows from the last time Safari was running from reopening.
    This will not work in all cases. The shift key must be held at the right time, and in some cases, even if done correctly, the window reappears. In these circumstances, after force quitting Safari, turn off Wi-Fi or disconnect Ethernet, depending on how you connect to the Internet. Then relaunch Safari normally. It will try to reload the malicious webpage, but without a connection, it won't be able to. Navigate away from that page by entering a different URL, i.e. www.apple.com, and trying to load it. Now you can reconnect to the Internet, and the page you entered will appear rather than the malicious one.

    HI,
    If you have Adobe Acrobat Reader, launch Adobe Reader. From the Menu Bar, click Adobe Reader/Preferences. Select the Internet category...the top option is the one you want. Uncheck the box to make sure Adobe doesn't keep making itself the default reader.
    You might also need to open /Library/Internet Plug-Ins and delete Adobe's PDF viewer plug-in.

    Safari is now a part of OS X and there are different versions (5, 6 and 7) of it.
    To update Safari you must update OS X.

  • How do you put safari web pages into icloud with the safari iCloud button?

    how do you put safari web pages into icloud with the safari iCloud button?

    What that button does is sync your tabs between your devices. So if you have multiple macs with Mountain Lion and/or devices with iOS 6 (once it comes out this fall) you can pick up where you left off. For example, let's say I have apple.com, nytimes.com, and facebook.com open on my mac, but I need to run. Later, if I need to use another computer in my household, I can just restore the tabs that I was using before on this other mac.
