Bookmarks dropdown box remains after running search through URL/Search bar
Has anyone else noticed that when you're in full screen mode in Yosemite Safari and you enter a search query into the URL/search bar, the dropdown bookmark/favourites do not disappear once you execute the search. So you have to then click elsewhere to make the dropdown box disappear otherwise you can get to the search results underneath the dropdown box.
These have nothing to do with Firefox.

This one - C:\Users\Vinegarhill-User Acc\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ak4dv58c.default\extensions\ \components\afom.exe - is probably the '''AFOM - Memory Recovery & Retention For Firefox Only''' extension.

My advice is to uninstall that extension. IMO, you have too many extensions installed, and are asking for problems with Firefox. I am not against using a lot of extensions in Firefox ''(I typically have 45 to 50 extensions installed, but the mix of extensions you have scares me as potentially problematic.)'' -
Safari won't restore window/toolbar/URL/search bar
HI all,
I have a very baffling situation. We have MacPro 2010 on 10.8. recently my son complained that his Safari doesn't work. I looked at it:
1. open Safari, and you get the menubar, but no browser window
2. under the menu-->windows, I find "untitled". when I click on "untitled" a window shows up with just the "home" icon and the homepage. no other toolbar. "cmd-L" won't let you type URL. no search bar either.
2a. tried "Reset Safari" no change
3. I tried changing the toolbar to default (with the address/search icon) through "customize toolbar", but no go
4. deleted .plist, ~/Library/Safari still won't recover the standard window
4a. after deleting .plist ~/Library/Safari, I rebooted the machine. no change
5. when I open a new window, nothing shows. but it lists additional "untitled" window under menu-->window
on all other accounts on the machine, the Safari works fine.
right now I'm accessing the web using Firefox.
how does one COMPLETELY reset Safari? if I can avoid deleting ~/Library that would be good. but if that is what it will take, I'll do it.
it's annoying how apple seems to hide application support files that it is no longer contained in the ~/Library/Preferences, etc file. (ran into ghost iCal stuff that will keep resurrecting itself!)
I'm very savvy with Terminal and other UNIX commands. so willing to try things.
thanks for any help!The culprit may be a Safari extension or third party plug-in ...
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.
If that didn't help, Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test. -
My question concerns a bug (or feature, I'm not sure which) that I've been seeing for some time on my Safari installations.
I'm running Lion (the latest patched version) with Safari (ditto). I've noticed that every so often, if I open a new tab and start typing something in the search/URL bar, Safari will not only suggest something based on my history, but will actually begin loading the page as though I had accepted that suggestion.
For example, today, I typed the letter "b" in the search/URL bar, paused for a few seconds while I was thinking of what to type next, and Safari went ahead and loaded "bugzilla.gnome.org" based on that being the last URL starting with "b" that I happened to have gone to. And the same thing has happened to me on earlier occasions with different web sites. In other words, it's not merely giving me a suggestion, it then proceeds as though I had accepted that suggestion. Sometimes it might happen to be right, but it's the principle of the thing.
Needless to say, I hadn't inadvertently bumped the Enter key.
Of course, ordinarily, Safari will just offer a list of suggestions based on my bookmarks and browsing history, maybe filling out the URL bar with the topmost suggestion (while giving me the option of overtyping it if I wish). And, of course, this happens without fail if I've just had Safari preempt me by loading a page and am trying to find out why. Like the best Heisenbugs, this "feature" goes away as soon as I make a concerted attempt to study it.
I have completely disabled AutoFill in the Preferences dialog. I would clear the cache and history, except that I kind of resent having to do that every time (or turn on private browsing, possibly another option) just to stop the computer from executing an instruction that I haven't even finished giving it yet (and in many cases intend to change).
Has anyone else seen or been able to disable this feature? -
can anyone tell me why I can no longer see the scroll bar to the right of the screen unless I stretch the screen but it fades in and out instead of always being there to scroll down

I have IMac OSX 10.9.4, 4GB,Processor 3.06 with Intell2Duo. I would like to check for Malware. I run a TechTool Pro 6 every month and that comes up great.
When check how much memory I am using, with only Safari open I am using 3.9 and more of her 4.0 memory. She is very. very slow in processing. I had 4000
trash to clean out and it took her over an hour to expel. Also for some reason Safari will not allow me to click on a link, in my G-mail, and let it go to the page.
It has a sign saying a pop-up blocker is on and will not let me do it. I must open the stamp to look at my e-mails and if I have redirected link now I can do it.
I have not changed my preferences so where is this pop-up blocker?
I have looked at preferences on Safari and Google, which I do not understand Google, and do not see where this blocker could be.
Malware is something I want to make sure is not on my computer. Tech Tool Pro 6 is all I know of and it does not detect Malware.
Help.

I can't open almost any app on my iMac (OSX Lion 10.7.4). Every time I attempt to do so, the affected app "unexpedtely quits", showing a window (sort of expanded dialog box) with the log history, wich form a complete report wich is said to be sent to Apple. Despite that this window has a "restart" button, I haven't been able to go any further from this point, as it repeats the process again and again, impeding me to use the affected app.
This has get to a critical point, as it is afecting apps like iTunes (especifically when I turn to the iTunes Store from within te app), MacApp Store, Software Updates (I can't update anything, given this problem) and many other apps, including Aperture 3, Fusion 4, integrated Dictionary and Wikipedia, as I've been able to verify.
As far as I'm concerned, it hasn't affected apps like Office, Vectorworks, Pixelmator, iDraw, Quick Note...
Can anybody help me on this matter?
Thanks a lot, in advance...

Any fix for external Iomega HDD won't mount to iMac OSX 10.8.5 Desktop?
I have a 750GB Iomega external HDD that I've used for several years to back up my iMac (OSX 10.8.5) with Time Machine. No problems. Computer locked up while searching on the internet last night, requiring a restart. The external HDD never came back up on my desktop, It has power and all cable connectors are tight. The disk powers up and runs, but it just repeats its attempt to mount over and over, but won't show up on the desktop. So I can't run Disk Utility or any diagnostic software, since it isn't accessible form the iMac.
Any suggestions? I'm guessing my only option is to bite the bullet and buy a replacement backup hard drive, and start over from scratch in Time Machine. My attempts to look for help on the Iomega site have been frustrated by the new post merger Lenovo-EMC based site. Practically no references found to Iomega at all!Yes, I checked that, and I tried restarting the computer with the HD turned on, then again with the HD turned off until after the computer finished booting up before turning the HD on. Nothing has worked to get the externa; drive to show up on the desktop. Thanks for replying. I'm not holding out much hope that the drive is going to work again. I'm on my way out to pick up a new backup drive. I figure I'll get one that is at least a TB, and 3.0 USB capable so that when the time comes that I replace my old iMac, the new drive will at least be able to back up the new equipment.

How do I move my iPhoto library from iMac G5 OSX 10.4 to iMac OSX 10.7?
How do I move my iPhoto library from iMac G5 OSX 10.4 to iMac OSX 10.7.2?
If you are doing an upgrade on the same Mac, just leave it where it is. When you do the upgrade, as long as it is not a "clean install" (wipe everything and start over), you should not lose any files.
If you are moving it to another Mac, move it to the same location in your user account on the other Mac. For example, no matter which Mac I'm on, the iPhoto library is always in Home/Pictures/iPhoto Library. -
My wife and I have separate ioS devices (iOS7) with separate iCloud accounts.
So we access our mail separately on these devices. But we would both like to be able to access mail at the desk top (iMac, OSX Mavericks). Currently only my mail is linked. How do I set up the Mac to allow it to access my wife's e-mail too, either in the same mail inbox or a separate one. Simple instructions please!If Mail in Mavericks is the same as earlier versions you can select accounts in the sidebar, so that you can either display the inboxes for individual accounts, or the contents of all the account inboxes. (If the accounts don't show click the disclosure triangle next to 'INBOX'). The layout may have changed since the version I have - Snow Leopard - but you should be able to do the same thing.

Is there a way to connect an old Sunflower iMac (OSX 10.4.11) to a new Time Capsule? It used to work with old Airport Extreme network, run from a intel iMac with updates thru Mavericks but now seems to only allow WEP encryption instead of WPA and can't connect to Time Capsule. Airport Extreme Base was controllable from either computer up through Snow Leopard (I didn't do any of the Lion upgrades). Then when I upgraded to Mavericks I lost the ability to use Airport Utility with this hardware on the Sunflower but could still connect wirelessly to network without any problems. But now with the Time Capsule upgrade the Sunflower is blocked from network by a dialogue that requests ony WEP password, not WPA pwd used by Time Capsule. Neither can I use the old airport extreme base to extend the time capsule network since I can't input the correct password/encryption approach to join it. Is there a work around? Would a newer but old Airport Express be able to extend network to Sunflower? Or maybe a third party wireless (such as Netgear, Dlink, etc) that has browser type control rather than special utility?
Another question--before I used MAC addresses to control who could access network. Now on Time Capsule I don't see anything about this--so is it true now that the only access control is via WPA2 pwd now (which appears to be the encryption pwd and not the time capsule pwd)?Is there a way to connect an old Sunflower iMac (OSX 10.4.11) to a new Time Capsule?
I can’t claim to completely grasp the issue(s) you’re describing, but the underlying problem is presumably your iMac’s obsolete AirPort card. Whatever the case, an obvious (if not particularly helpful) answer to your stated question would be to connect your iMac with an ethernet cable, using powerline adapters as an alternative if you don’t want to have wire running all over the place.
My still fully functional clamshell iBook, with an original AirPort card, connects wirelessly to my 4th Generation TC network by means of a cheap 802.11b/g/n USB Wi-Fi adapter. This might be an option for you too.
Another question--before I used MAC addresses to control who could access network. Now on Time Capsule I don't see anything about this
When you edit your TC's settings the access controls appear under the Network tab, don't they?
