New Safari update won't quit

After installing the latest Safari update, the application refuses to quit when I try to logout. I have to go back to Safari and quit the program. Is this a common issue? Or am I doing something wrong?

Hello and welcome to Apple Discussions...
You need to update your system software, not just Safari.
Click your Apple menu (top left corner of your screen) scroll down and click "Software Update...*
When the updates are installed, repair disk permissions.
Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

  • My daughter downloaded the new safari update on her iMac and now it won't open without new os update

    We downloaded the new safari update on my daughter's iMac and one it won't open without the new os.   How do we go back to the previous safari?   Thanks!

    Which OS X is installed on your Mac ?
    Click the Apple () menu top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac.
    The version is noted there.

  • Getting Startup Disk Full message since downloading new Safari update

    I downloaded the new Safari update a few days ago… it took ages to do and whenever I now try to use Safari I get the Pinwheel of Death after about two minutes and then a message telling me my startup disk is full. It won't let me acknowledge the message or force-quit from Safari – I have to switch off at the button and restart.
    All I have on my MacBook are 15 Word documents and the Applications it shipped with (in fact I’ve actually dumped some in an attempt to clear space, as ell as dumping the cache folders)… I only use it to surf the net in the evenings and have no music or pictures on it.
    I'm not having this problem at all when using Firefox. Is it possible the update has a bug?

    You really need a bit more space than that, but try a bit of maintanance:
    Repairing permissions is important, and should always be carried out both before and after any software installation or update.
    Go to Disk Utility (this is in your Utilities Folder in your Application folder) and click on the icon of your hard disk (not the one with all the numbers).
    In First Aid, click on Repair Permissions.
    This only takes a minute or two in Tiger, but much longer in Leopard.

    An article on troubleshooting Permissions can be found here:

    By the way, you can ignore any messages about SUID or ACL file permissions, as explained here:

    If you were having any serious problems with your Mac you might as well complete the exercise by repairing your hard disk as well. You cannot do this from the same start-up disk. Reboot from your install disk (holding down the C key). Once it opens, select your language, and then go to Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select your hard disk as before and click Repair.
    Once that is complete reboot again from your usual start-up disk.

  • New iOS7 update won't let me restrict iTunes radio/images for my kids. Help?

    The new iOS7 update won't let me restrict iTunes radio/images for my kids. I've never had this problem with Apple before. I've always had the ability to restrict the iTunes store, and anything else I needed to restrict. I'm not a religous nut, I just don't want my kids looking at some of that stuff. I'm really disappointed with this feature. If anybody has any help I would appreciate it! Switching music to clean only blocks music, not album covers and artist pictures. I've always loved the parent friendly features of Apple. I hope they fix this soon! My family loves Apple, and I don't want to have to switch!

    Hi. Yes I've looked all through restrictions and there is nothing that will block it. This is weird. Apple usually always thinks of this stuff. Usually they provide ways to both choose a parental level or block it from being used all together. I can't do either. On some of my devices I want to restrict what I'm seeing/hearing from iTunes radio but on some I want to block it all together. I've been all through restrictions and there is no option for either.

  • New iMac - iChat won't quit....

    Hi,
    I just got my new iMac 24" and I've had no problems with it in general.
    I was flirting with the idea of joining iChat and getting an iMac acoount when I changed my mind. So I tried to back out and quit the iChat application.
    But the 'Welcome to iChat AV" window is stuck and stays there on my desktop. I've tried to shut my iMac down, but it won't do so - it tells me to quit the iChat application first at the dock and then shut down. But that's what I'm trying to do and nothing happens.
    Let me repeat that I am correctly attempting to quit the application from the dock area. But it won't quit.
    I appreciate any help on this,
    Many Thanks, Frank B.

    Well, I fixed it by forwarding through the interface but not filling anything in. Then I was able to quit the application.
    Thanks, Frank B.

  • New Safari Update Causes Multiple Posts. SLOW

    Do Apple programmers/software engineers monitor this forum? If so- ❈❈❈ HELP ❈❈❈. Please fix this ASAP.
    June 9 (7), 2010 Safari Update Problems- Slower, Multiple Posting
    I have Mac OS X, Version 10.6.3. 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, Memory 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3.
    This is the first problem I’ve noticed w/ a software update.
    On June 9, 2010 I downloaded a safari update that was an automatic software update. This was probably the “Safari 5.0” update, dated June 7, 2010, but I’m not 100% sure. I downloaded it the same day I got it & I have software updates scheduled to look every day for updates.
    This update changed the menu bar to blue when loading a new address. Previously the menu bar was white & showed a grey band at the end of it that said “loading” when loading a new address. Now the grey band is absent.
    The new improvement is horrible. On a site I post & reply to posts on, It is slower in moving around a site & loading a page than before the update. I don’t care about the blue band. While the previous grey band showed immediately when it began loading, the new blue expanding bar on the address doesn’t immediately change when loading.
    When posting or replying, when pressing the “post” button it takes longer to respond than before. Now that the grey band that said “loading” isn’t present one isn’t sure if it took the command. If the “post” button is pressed more than once it now posts as many times as the button is pressed. Then extra posts have to be deleted, but w/ replies this isn’t possible. This is a awful feature. The previous address function was much more preferable.
    Before this update, when posting, even if the “post” button was pressed multiple times, it would only post once whether an original blog/post or reply. On some sites it seems to work OK.
    If Apple technicians monitor this site, please provide a correction for this asap. The improvements are awful.
    The correction should have:
    1) Replace the grey band that said “loading” even if the blue band remains.
    2) Make pressing the “post button” multiple times only post once- like before.
    3) Return the speed it previously moved around a site & posted. Removing the blue band is OK. I don't care about this.
    ❈❈❈ Can I safely remove all the Safari updates that were added on June 9, 2010 when I added this update to the trash bin? Will this return Safari safely to the previous settings? I’ve found in finder where it expands to show the exact updates that were added on June 9, 2010.
    Could just selected ones be removed to accomplish what I want? Any suggestions?

    If you want to report this issue to Apple's engineering, send a bug report or an enhancement request via its Bug Reporter system. To do this, join the Mac Developer Program—it's free and available for all Mac users and gets you a look at some development software. Since you already have an Apple username/ID, use that. Once a member, go to Apple BugReporter and file your bug report or enhancement request. The nice thing with this procedure is that you get a response and a follow-up number; thus, starting a dialog with engineering.
    Alternatively, send Feedback, but that usually goes through support and marketing, although when it'll get to engineering is anyone's guess.
    Finally, there's the Safari toolbar Report Bug tool.

  • New iTunes update won't recognize my computer

    I just uploaded the new iTunes update for my pc and when I go to play a song I get a message saying that this computer is not authorized to play my iTunes songs.  So I enter my password to "authorize" this computer and a message comes up saying that the computer IS ALREADY authorized.  But it still wont let me play my songs.  I even tried to deauthorize this computer and re authorize it and I still get the same message.  Can't seem to find a button that will allow my undo the last update.

    Nevermind.
    Had to delete the purchased song. Sync my ipod with my computer. redownload the song and BOOM GOES THE DYNAMITE. I can listen to the song through my pc and dont have to keep reauthorizing my computer

  • New iTunes update won't open.  First it said Apple Mobil Device failed to start.  So I Stopped then Started Apple Mobil Device.  Now iTunes still won't load.  Tells me MSVCR80.dll was not found.  Wants me to reinstall app.  Will I lose all my music?

    Current iTunes update won't load.  Tells me MSVCR80.dll was not found.  Wants me to reboot.  If I reboot, will I lose my music?

    Hi DDay@55,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    To resolve this error, I recommend completely removing and reinstalling iTunes and all of its related components using these steps:
    Check for .dll files
    Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
    If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
    Reboot your computer.
    Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
    Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
    Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
    Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
    Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
    You can find the article with these steps and more information here:
    iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
    This process should not affect any music or content on your computer, but you may want to
    back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive.
    Best,
    Jeremy

  • HT1349 new itunes update won't allow me to drag and drop a playlist

    Hi
    I've downloaded the new iTunes update but I can't seem to do a drag and drop with playlists from my PC/mac onto my external Apple devices (2x iPads, iPod and my iPhone)
    Is this lost functionality or a new "feature"
    I don't want iCloud and Home Sharing doesn't work for me...
    Any ideas....?
    I can include songs onto a device but only one at a time wheras I need to drag the whole playlist...

    No, I haven't had any solution to this problem. None of the myriad of possible solutions work. Doesn't someone from Apple monitor these boards? I've given up in getting it fixed and am seriously ****** at the lack of response on Apple's part without me paying for an answer. This is a ridiculous way to support software, where I have to troll around a discussion board hoping someone stumbled upon a solution and will actually reply to this thread.
    Considering the amount of Apple products that I own, you'd think I could get a freakin' response. Here's are the amount of apple products in my house, all bought within the past 3 years-
    Mac Pro Quad Core
    15" MacBook Pro
    13" Macbook Air
    3 Mac Minis
    Three iPad's
    2 iPhone 4's
    2 iPod Touch's
    But because it's on my Mac Pro, which is 1 1/2 years old, I can't get an answer to this! ***.

  • New safari update

    Safari updated last night, Now I am having a problem with my keychain. It keep saying that there is no keychain for safari. When I go into keychain and enter my password it says its incorrect (even though it is) and wants me to reset it, so I did, and still nothing. This mac it only 6 months old and shouldn't be having these problems yet. My wifes mac did the same thing and after spending hundreds of dollars it is now a $1500 paperweight.

    First off...have you tired rebooting the computer?

  • New Safari Window won't display

    I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard at my work computer (they don't allow Lion yet). I ran the updates which upgraded Safari to 5.1. However, now I can't open a new window. It shows in the window menu that they are open, but they won't display, and I can't get them to. If I hit Command-L it will highlight the url field, but won't allow me to type anything. I've tried going back to Safari 5.0, uninstalled all extensions, deleted cache, reset everything etc. I now don't have any of my work-specific bookmarks and an unusable browser. I've deleted preference files, cache files, etc. It starts like normal, but if I close the window, or open a new window, it is locked up. Is there any way to fix this?

    Anti virus software installed?
    Does the same thing happen in another user account?

  • New iTunes Update: Won't Open; Crashes

    iTunes takes an hour to open after clicking on  the icon, then it plays two songs before crashing after the latest update. Is there a fix?

    Hello there,
    It sounds like you are experiencing some unexpected behavior with the iTunes app after a recent update. I would use the following article to help you troubleshoot the issue, named:
    iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1717
    Start with loading iTunes in Safe Mode to help isolate 3rd party plugins, and if needed there are additional steps to use in the article:
    Start iTunes in Safe Mode
    Open iTunes in Safe Mode to isolate any interference from plug-ins or scripts not manufactured by Apple.
    Hold down Shift–Control while opening iTunes. You should see a dialog that says "iTunes is running in safe mode" before iTunes finishes starting up.
    Click Continue.
    See if the issue you're experiencing persists in Safe Mode.
    If you have the same issue while iTunes is in Safe Mode, proceed to the "Create a new user account" section. If you don't experience the same issue, follow these steps to remove third-party plug-ins.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Regards,
    Sterling

    Appears that your migration transfered too much and has corrupted your Universal binary version of OS X with things from the PPC version on the G4. Unfortunately, the System Prefs may not be all that got transfered.

  • IMac crashing with new safari update

    my imac (i7 16 gig ram 18months old) crashers just after a startup and a message says to push any key as your system crashed all I have done is update safari how do I boot and do a check like we used to be able when the os came on a disk

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • The new Safari update

    So I am running a dual boot and this weekend I ran updates on both sides. While I am on my mac side of the partition, I noticed my cpu heats up drastically while I am on safari. Is this due to the web-toolkit safari is using or because of my windows updates on drivers?
    One thing I noticed is that when I use chrome instead of safari, the laptop becomes a lot cooler.
    Thanks.

    Try troubleshooting Safari extensions and third party plugins to see if it makes a difference in operating temperatures.
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
    If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
    Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect:  Allow plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.
