How to block pop-ups in Safari 8

How do I block pop-ups in Safari 8.
Since I purchased a new Mac with system 10,2, Safari is driving me nuts with constant pop-ups
The is no «block pop-up windows» in this version.

Safari 8's control for this is in the Security tab of its preferences, and is on by default.
If needed, click here and follow the instructions, or if there’s a type of adware not covered by them on the computer, these ones. If you're willing to use a tool to remove it(you don't need to, but may find it easier), you can instead run Adware Medic; this link is a direct download.

How to allow pop-ups in Safari for all users

How do you allow Safari pop-ups for all users? After rolling out 50 Mac OSX with Safari comes default with Safari pop-ups disabled, now I must allow pop-ups for all users logging in.
Good day!

Do you have an Exchange (e.g. a work) email account set up on the iPad ? If you do then it's possible that the account profile is preventing you turning popups 'on', in which case you would need to contact the email account administrator

Pop ups on Safari

I have always blocked pop ups on Safari, but lately I'm getting them anyway. Any ideas on why that would be and what I can do to stop it. They are VERY annoying!

True. Very annoying.
Safari 5
Blocking pop-up windows stops only those windows that appear when you open or close a page. It does not block pop-up windows that open when you click a link.

Best.

Exceptions for blocking pop-ups

Hi
Firefox has the ability to include exceptions for blocking pop=ups but Safari does not have this ability. This is useful for a few sites that I visit regularly.
Is there a plug-in that provides this ability?
thanks Colin

Same here. This "all-or-none" approach is really inadequate, even if you can toggle it on and off with command-K. It's annoying to have to keep changing it all the time.

When I go to my safari settings I cannot turn off my "Block Pop-ups for a site. It is stuck in the on position.

I have certain websites that use popups that I need to be able to use. When I go to Safari settings I cannot turn of the "block pop ups" setting. It is grayed out and only in the on postion.

You will need to have the hold switch replaced.

How do i permanently block pop ups for certain sites

how do i permanently block pop ups for certain sites

According to this thread > http://www.techsupportforum.com/forums/f65/blocking-individual-web-sites-on-safa ri-226175.html
You can use the Terminal app to block individual sites but be aware, unless you are familiar using Terminal, best to click your Apple menu (top left in your screen) then click Block Pop-Up Windows from the drop down menu instead.

Although I have 'Block pop-ups' turned on, I'm still getting pop-ups. How can I fix this?

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.<br />
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br />
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.<br /><br />

What is going on with pop ups in Safari?

This has never happened to me in all the years of owning macs.... it's rather disturbing!
I've got a new intel iMac and believe since trying to install a 'player' in Safari to watch football online, I now seem to be plagued by pc style popups on all web pages, I don't know how to stop them... any ideas? I have installed the Safai Popup blocker, but without success.
Many thanks

Safari - Preferences - Extensions - Add the Ad Block extension. This will block pop ups.

I can block pop-ups, but not allow new windows in Firefox 4

After upgrading to Firefox 4, I can block pop-ups (except
those I wish to allow) just fine, but I can't find a way to
allow website links to open new windows -- I always get
a message that Firefox prevented the new window, with
an "Allow" button. I want to allow them all. How can I
do this? Thanks.

'''Scan for Malware'''
Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try some of the following programs to scan for malware:
* [http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware]
* [http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363 TDSSKiller - AntiRootkit Utility]
* [http://windows.microsoft.com/MSE Microsoft Security Essentials] (A good permanent anti-virus if you don't already have one)
Further information can be found in the [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]] article.
'''Reset Firefox'''
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
