How to reset to default settings for safari 4.1.3

Need a bit of help here... for some reason I'm not getting use of Safari 4.1.3, not able to open sites, the Open location function in pull down menu is greyed out and no bar for typing in sites I want to browse. I think I just may have to reset Safari to default settings, but not sure how... Opening up Preferences is no help.

Hi..
I hate to say this but v10.4.11 with Safari 4.1.3 is really outdated. You may have problems loading websites for that reason alone and lack of security. Apple has not updated Safari for Tiger for years.
But try a reset.
From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Reset Safari
Select the following:
Clear history
Reset Top Sites
Remove all webpage preview images
Empty the cache
Clear the Downloads window
Remove all cookies
Remove all website icons
Click Reset
Quit and relaunch Safari. See if that made a difference.
I have an iBook G4 running v10.4 with Safari 4.1.3 and more often than not, websites won't load. Or I'll see the, "your browser is not supported', dialog.
You might want to consider a new Mac at some point.

  • Change Defaults Settings for Safari

    Since I upgraded to the New Mountain Lion, the Default Settings for my Safari browser is Bay City. How do I change this where I live?

    HI Norm,
    Open System Preferences/Network. Select Airport in the panel in the left then click the Advanced tab then click the Proxies tab. Where you see: Select a protocol to configure Make sure there are NO boxes checked.
    Click the Airport tab in that same window. Make sure your network is listed under: Preferred Networks
    If not, cick + Type in your network name or click Show Networks and select it from there. Your network should be listed in the Preferred Networks window now. Just below that window select the box next to: Remember networks this computer has joined.
    If you still have problems, open Airport Utility (Applications/Utilities)
    Select your device on the left then click Continue. In the next window click: I want to restore this AirPort device to its factory settings and then set it up again; then click Continue.
    I'm on Comcast without using any Proxies.
    You can disconnect the Comcast cable modem from it's power source for about 5 minutes then reconnect. Sometimes you have to recycle the modem.

    Also, on the G5. Go to /Library/Preferences/System Configuration and move these files to the Trash.
    com.apple.airport.preferences.plist
    com.apple.nat.plist
    com.apple.network.identification.plist
    You may only see the com.apple.airport.preferences.plist file in that list since it's running 10.5.x
    Don't worry about the other .plist files if they are not available.

  • How do you change default settings for Pdf document viewing?

    Somehow the default setting for all my PDF documents and photos is now ColorSync. How do I change the main default setting, which I think should be Safari?

    The default is Preview, and you change it thus:
    Select a pdf file, rightclick and select 'Get Info', in the pane that opens scroll down to the section marked 'Open With', select Preview and check the box to 'Change All'

  • How to set the default settings for all users in 11.1.1.3

    I have couple of questions
    1. How can I change the default setting for all the users so that whenever they log in the planning takes them to the Task lists mode. Or is this a one time thing which they need to do individually ?
    2. How can I set the defalut setting for all the users so that they can see the same page when they log into Workspace ?

    For workspace have a read of - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/bpmui_admin/assigning_default_preferences.html
    For planning you can't really set it without hacking tables.

  • Palete Image trace: How to change the default settings for icon?

    Hi!
    New palette and action Image tracer is a good step forward and work better, thank you.
    This palette has a built-in icons, which significantly accelerate the selection. How do I change the default action?
    I know that you can save presets, but this is different. The icons are even faster and more practical.
    eg I want to icon B & W automatically have enabled the option "Ignore White".
    Best Regards!

    No, there's no way to do that, and that's because Lightroom works best as a single catalogue. You have metadata fields like Job which can track individual assignments.
    What you could do is create an empty catalogue with settings as you want, then copy the file each time you want to set up a new catalogue.

  • How do I change the default settings for opening documents on my macbook?

    Hi I would like to know how to change the default settings for opening documents on my macbook. Everytime I try to open a doc. it automatically opens with Textedit, instead of Pages or another program.

    Select any particular document you wish to fix. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. In the Open With section select the desired Default Application from the dropdown menu. Click on the Change All button to extend the change to all similar documents.
    You can only assign one default application to one type of document.

    It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

    When you reset Firefox then a new profile is created and some personal data (bookmarks, history, cookies, passwords, form data) is automatically imported and the current profile folder will be moved to the desktop to an "Old Firefox Data" folder.
    Installed extensions and other customizations (toolbars, prefs) that you have made are lost and need to be redone.
    It is possible to recover more data from the old profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem

  • How to change default settings for a video generator?

    I'm using a video generator (Lyric Media's Pan Zoom Pro) many times in the same project, and have to change the default settings for each new instance of the generator that I create. I'm wondering if there's any way to change the default settings for a generator (i.e., length of clip, individual slider and checkbox settings in the "controls" tab) so that each new instance automatically has my customized settings when I first open it.
    Thanks.

    That works for the all the controls/filter settings. The clip length still defaults to 10 seconds, but that's OK, since the main thing I was looking for was to change the clip's internal settings. Thanks for your help

  • Google as default page for Safari

    I have google as my search enginge on my iphone 6.  But when I open up Safari I would also like it to use google as the default web page.  Looking at settings for safari, I can't seem to see how to set default web page.

    That is because there is no "Home" page for Safari on the phone like there is on a computer. When you open Safari, it will open to the last page you were on unless you close all of the pages, and it will come up blank. The only way to get close to that is to open Google in Safari, then tap the box with the arrow in the center bottom of the page. Then tap on the add to home screen button, and that will put a shortcut on your home page you can use to open Safari. When you do that, it will open to that page.

  • How do I restore the settings for apps using Time Machine?

    I believe there are problems with items within the Library Folder inside the System Folder.  For example, there are two "Frameworks" Folders, but one has "(from old Mac)" after its name.  I dare not try to remove or even move either.
    Back in the day of OS 9, you could modify something, then search for it by "Last Modified" Date, and find where Apple has hidden itscontents.  It's not so easy in OS X.  I've had some success using Pondini's Time Machine FAQ's, though.  Here is how I got to this problem:
    Our family MacBook died.  After getting a repair estimate of $500 to $700 "if it's the Logic Board," we decided to replace it.  We purchased a MacBook Pro running Lion.  (Later, we brought it to an Apple Store and were quoted $435 in house or $280, but they would have to send it out.  Incredible repair: Logic Board, Top & Bottom Case, Super Drive, Battery, all for $280.  No wonder they're #1).  I pulled the Hard Dive out, erased it, and installed an older operating system, but during the repair they installed 10.6.
    Restored the MBP from the TM backup of the MacBook. OK
    The Macbook is repaired and the store showed me how to restore the data from the TM backup.
    Restart and the passwords do not work due to restoring a 10.6 machine from a 10.7 backup.
    Tech support guides me through resetting an admin password using the password utility on the install DVD.
    changed the other passwords inside of Accounts in System Preferences.  Then changed the password or the other Admin.
    Restart, get a circle with a line through it.
    Tech support guides me through fixing this.
    Restart, half my Apps do not work.
    Tech support says to re-install 10.6.
    I did but I thought it would erase and install but it just re-installed 10.6.
    Most Apps work, except iPhoto.  Mail is OK sending but only receives on one of 3 accounts.
    Is there a fix for iPhoto & Mail?  If not, I would plan to erase and use the finder to drag the user folders from TM to the MacBook.  Can I just drag the Apps too?  How about all of the settings for those Apps?

    If you don't keep a backup, you can't restore your machine to any state except the state in which you received it, brand new, with none of your own stuff on it. That makes a pretty convincing argument for backing up, doesn't it?
