How to reset safari on macbook pro

Hi,
I was wondering if you could help me. I am currently getting pop ups from offers4u on my internet and it's getting on my nerves, i was wondering is there any way to get rid of these.I have tried adblocker but its not working.
any other suggestions would be helpful.
Thank you

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 do I reset Safari on MacBook Pro, running Yosemite 10.10.3 with Safari V8.0.5? The reset button is not in Preferences, Privacy, nor on the drop-down menu of Safari.

I have a 2011 MacBook Pro running Yosemite 10.10.3, and Safari V8.05. I want to reset Safari, but there is no reset in the Safari drop-down nor is there a reset in the Preferences - Privacy window. Any Help out there?

Hi, thanks for the response. I have searched online and many posts say to reset Safari all you have to do is click on the Safari icon, then select reset from the drop down menu, or find the reset button in the privacy window in preferences. My system has neither options. My Safari had been hijacked (frozen) by a pop-up. I cleared all history, cookies, cache, etc. with the wifi off, and it seems to have worked so far. Many posts said to reset Safari, and I don't seem to have that option.
Thanks again.

How do I fix my MacBook Pro that continues to abruptly turn off, no matter what I am doing? Even after deleting items/trying resolution methods?

How can I fix my MacBook Pro? I have a relatively recent model of the MacBook Pro. I’ve been running Mavericks.
For the past few days, it has been randomly clicking off by itself, I guess crashing. I would be online or just doings on it, sometimes nothing at all, and the screen would go black, the computer would turn off. Then, I would proceed to try to turn it back on, and it won’t turn on for several minutes, no matter what buttons you push. I tried doing an SMC reset for myself. It did not help much. I deleted all my personal files, including plug-ins, especially flash player. I thought that helped, but the computer proceeded to turn off minutes later. Then, out of frustration, (as I have done twice or so before since having the computer) I did what may be called a factory reset for my computer. I erased the current operating system information/memory in disk utility, and then went on to reinstall OS X. This was working fine, and then, a few minutes into the downloading process, my computer turned off once again.
Now, I have no system to operate on. I keep turning the computer back on to try to do it again. But now, the computer tries to do a remote or internet recovery, and tries to re-download an operating system using my WiFi. I’m sure this would be successful, but the computer can’t function for more than a minute or two without crashing/turning off.
I am fairly certain that my power button is NOT stuck.
I did earlier notice the fan making noise, before doing the SMC reset.
The computer did seem to say there was no batteries available at one point.
(But all of this was okay after some point, and I was just doing the reset to try to correct the turning off the system was still doing)
A week or two ago, I did have a glitch where my desktop picture was flashing and acting weird, and other functions on my computer keyboard not working, like volume, keyboard brightness, etc. But I did fix it.
I have not ever had much on this Macbook pro. I do not download applications. I do not store nearly any files on the computer. I usually only use the flash player plug-in. This computer is only used for doing work/business, and for personal use online.
I can’t see why I would have so many problems.
Is it possible that erasing the memory twice or so before is causing an error or issue in the drive?
What is the root of this problem, and how can I fix it on my own?
I can’t really make any progress on the computer since it turns off after only a minute or two no matter what you are trying to do.
What do I do now?

kapots3v4,
if your MacBook Pro doesn’t stay active long enough to perform an OS X Internet Recovery, then you should make an appointment at your nearest Apple store or Apple-authorized service provider to have them diagnose what’s ailing it.

How do I prove a Macbook Pro Log on password?

How do I prove a Macbook Pro Log on password? I was told to open Teminal and type in password but I was not sure what the computer told me afterwards. Is there another way to prove that I got my log on password correct before I Log off?

if you are using 10.6 you can see passwords, unbeknown to me. Read this article: http://www.macyourself.com/2009/08/03/how-to-reset-your-mac-os-x-password-withou t-an-installer-disc/

How do you make a MacBook Pro talk to an Epson printer?

MacBook Pro
OS X 10.6.8
(Thinking about getting another MacBook)
I had an Epson Artisan printer, got an Epson Workforce WF-3640 new in Jan, hardly used because I cannot make it do what I want it to do. Wireless connection is good.
With the MacBook Pro, the interface with the Epson printers is not what it used to be on the G4: no ColorSync, no 2-sided, no thick paper, none of those kinds of instructions appear on the generic printer control panel. Which by the way, bears NO resemblance to the Epson manual screenshots, and the instructions in the Epson manual are useless.
How do you make a MacBook Pro talk to an Epson printer? And by the way, I cannot use the scanner either. I have to set up a document to print, then when the printing progress box appears, click on the scanner icon.
Also
Printer has 2 compartments. Top compartment #1 for all types paper.
Bottom compartment #2 for plain paper only.
I load glossy photo paper in #1, it prints plain paper from #2 even though I entered instructions on the control panel on the printer.

If you haven't done so already, try resetting the printing system.

How do I partition my MacBook Pro so I can keep Snow Leopard and also install Mountain Lion?

How do I partition my MacBook Pro so I can keep Snow Leopard and also install Mountain Lion?
I want to install the latest OS, but I already know that I will lose a lot of my software unless I can partition the hard drive and have two "bootable" drives.
How do I retain everything I have, partition the drive, then reloa the software I own according to which OS it will work under?

I do not currently own OS X ML.
I am currently running OS X (10.6.8 Snow Leopard) on my MacBook Pro. It has a 2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor. I want to upgrade to Mountain Lion, but many of my software titles will not operate with ML and I cannot afford to replace some of them (Adobe Creative Suite, for e.g.)
After I back-up my HD and then partition the HD, how do I use the back-up to reinstall what I want to the SL partition, and then place the rest on the ML partition.
I have not done what you want to do, so can only offer some general thoughts in support. Take value from the following where you can. No guarantees.
If it was me, I would use a disk clone utility (e.g. Carbon Copy Cloner) to image the existing Snow Leopard disk to an external drive. Then verify that the external drive would boot and run Snow Leopard normally.
I would then purchase and download the Mountain Lion upgrade installer, but not run it. Use Lion Diskmaker to make a bootable USB stick, and perform a clean install of Mountain Lion, replacing the Snow Leopard on your MBP. This way, you make absolutely certain that no third-party drivers or other SL cruft remains to make Mountain Lion unstable. Update to latest ML point release. Fix permissions. Let TimeMachine make a full backup of your ML installation to a different external drive. Then turn of Time Machine.
In Disk Utility, use the + sign at the bottom of the ML partition to add another GUID, HFS+ Journaled partition for Snow Leopard. Resize to taste. Name it differently from your ML partition. Exhale.
Now ideally, you would like to reverse the external clone and put it back into the new SL partition. Then fix permissions. And demonstrate that you can boot into individually stable OS X installations. This would save you alot of work. Resist copying your home directory into ML just yet.
If you cannot successfully achieve the preceding paragraph, you will be faced with a full SL and application reinstall.
The ~/Library contents for SL and ML are sufficiently different that you do not want to mix them. You may want to salvage Safari bookmarks.plist. And, ML created folders in the home directory may have different permissions or ACL settings than in SL. So, my rule of thumb would be to copy folders that you created in SL, and only the contents of matching named OS created folders such as Music, Pictures, Downloads, etc.
For each operating system, you probably want the Time Machine settings to exclude the opposite OS X partition. If you use the same host name in Sharing prefs, then you will mix SL and ML backups on the same Time Machine back up drive. If you use different host names, they will be distinct folders in the Time Machine backups.backupdb and allow discrete restores per host. You may also want to gag Spotlight from indexing the opposite OS X partition.

How can I make my macbook pro go to sleep when I close the lid? Currently it doesn't sleep when on battery.

For this and other power related issues the best first step to try is resetting the System Management Controller.
Best of luck.

Corruption on Display in Safari on Macbook Pro

The page screen in Safari using Macbook pro corrupts and the only way to clear it is to highlight it and then click on it to clear corruption. Does anyone know how to fix this?
It only happens on the macbook. On my Imac it is fine.
Changing the resolution of the display only makes things fuzzy.
Any help would be much appreciated.

I'm having the same problem, but it's also happening in Mail.app. It is an intermittent problem... a reboot will make it stop happening. It is the same effect as if you were in photoshop and dragged the brightness/contrast slider to the left. So, on a page with photos and a gradient background, the photos get progressively darker the more you scroll. You can even see the gradient background darkening, until the page is almost entirely black, with a few white specks where highlights were (again, just like photoshop).
With text (like an email message) the same effect happens, but it makes the anti-aliasing go to solid black. Here's a screenshot of that http://web.me.com/bigphaty/Screenshots/AppleDisplayProblems.html
I tried to take a screenshot of the photo webpage, but clicking my screenshot widget refreshed the page and it cleared up.
I use a Wacom Intuos tablet, but it happens with the trackpad too. Running a MBP 2.16 core duo with 2g ram. Latest Leopard 10.5.5.
I've also noticed some strange artifacts pop up intermittently when using quicksilver. It will look like a cracked glass screen or something, only for a split second, then disappear.
I've had other issues too, my MBP will wake up and think an external monitor is attached, or wake up at 800x600... The Apple store said they would fix it, but it would take almost a week. That was extremely disappointing, I paid for AppleCare, I can't be without my computer for a week! That's ridiculous.

How do I use my macbook pro lid closed

How do I use my macbook pro lid closed?

Well what i'm trying to do is keep file sharing on while macBook is closed so i can access files through "newtwok" (Back to my mac) with my imac...
Ideally i would then control my macBook with screen sharing on my imac while the MacBook is stored behind my iMac...
Somehow it worked before but now it stopped...and everytime i close the lid ..mac book pro goes black screen and completly disconnects from the newtwork...
Everything works fine with lid open..
I am trying to do this because i have a new imac with thunderbold and an older macbook pro with mini display port..and as you might already know...you canot connect these thow devices using thunderbolt cable...which really *****....there is also no adaport enabling this...and i really dont need to buy another mac book that just has one more hole in it >.<
Anyway..hope there is a solution somewhere to keep file sharing going while lid down..
regards remo

How do I use my MacBook Pro to watch exactly what my digital cable box would send to my TV?

How do I use my MacBook Pro to watch exactly what my digital cable box would send to my TV?

You could use Elgato Systems' EyeTV product to view external video sources on your MBP.
There is additional cost involved, but it would achive what you want. You can buy the Hybrid product, and connect your external DVD player via Composite (red, white and yellow connectors) to your MBP via the EyeTV.

Unfortunately, that is not possible. The computer only can "output" your display image, it cannot "input" an image from an external computer and display it on your MacBook's retina display.

How do i use my macbook pro as a fax

how do i use my macbook pro as a fax

I bought a US Robotics USB modem that has a phone jack. I then went into Settings, and set it up as a fax. I can RECEIVE, but haven't really tried to send, although I do have access to a scanner. I do have to physically jack into the wall to receive. I do not know if I (or anyone else) can do this wirelessly.
The modem is 56K, and relatively cheap...I think I paid $25 or less for it.

How do I connect my MacBook Pro to an LCD TV (with HDMI and S-Video ports)?

How do I connect my MacBook Pro to an LCD TV (with HDMI and S-Video ports)? I assume I would need to use the DVI to Video adapter that came with my computer to connect to my LCD tv. I'm just not sure which port I should use on the TV. The HDMI port is being used for digital cable.
Also, does anyone know if this can be done wirelessly?

For a 2010+ MBP you can connect with a Displayport to HDMI, which will include Audio.
With older MBP you will need a displayport to HDMI, if you want audio to the actually TV, then you will need to get a cable with either digital out from MBP to the HDMI, or USB audio mixed into the HDMI
