Problems with Safari (4.0.5) Mail and Time Machine

For some time I have been experiencing every day issues with Safari and Mail. These apps constantly crash i.e. several times a day. Recently I noticed also some issues with Time Machine. Please find below extract form Console that may say smething about the reasons for it:

Please give me some advise of what should be done to cure the stability of my iMac.

If you have any, they'd be in that folder, in either your User directory or your root directory. If you have no such folders, then you have no Input Managers and they wouldn't be the cause of the problem.
In that case, I'd suggest going to Users/Username/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari and deleting the contents of that folder, then locking the folder via the Get Info window.
Then go to Users/Username/Library/Safari and delete these files:
Downloads.plist
History.plist
LastSession.plist
Restart Safari and see if things improve.
If not, then the last thing I would suggest is downloading Onyx (http://www.titanium.free.fr/index_us.html) for your version of Mac OS X; install and launch it, select Automation, then select "Maintenance Scripts" and under Cache, select "System" and "User" (or "System and Kernel"), depending on options what your version gives you. Uncheck everything else and click the Execute button. Restart your Mac when it's done, then test Safari again.

  • Has anyone noticed that comcast does not play well with safari, especially around e-mail and voice mail?

    Is anyone else having trouble with safari working with comcast?  I've spoken to both the comcast people (no help what so ever) and the apple people with no success at all.  I like the safari format and don't want to change.

  • Strange problem with auto-fill addresses in mail and address book

    There's an entry in my address book (version 4.0.6) that keeps adding a first name to an entry. I keep deleting it and somehow the first name keeps getting added. I suspected that Mail (2.1.3) was using auto-fill or LDAP to take the name it remembered in Mail and put it in Address Book by associating the email address, so I turned off LDAP and auto-fill and the problem still persists.
    As an aside, I use mobileme to sync two macs (Address Book) and a pc (Outlook) so I really want to clear up this problem so the phantom entry does not keep getting transfered to all databases.
    Should I delete some cache or something? One other problem (unsure if it's related) is that my Mail application always ask for my keychain password on startup - I have tried the keychain repair app and it seemed to work once, though this problem persists, as well.
    Thank you in advance!

    Yes. the dot in front makes it invisible.
    Show hidden files...
    Open the terminal and type or copy/paste:
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -bool true
    Reverting to the default of NOT showing hidden files:
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -bool false
    Reboot or Force Finder quit needed for either change to show.
    I'd move them both to the Desktop then reboot, if it works fine then you can Trash them.

  • Problem with File Vault account after restoring from Time Machine Backup

    my old 13" macbook 2.4 running OS X 10.5.4 was recently stolen and I've purchased a refurbished 13" macbook pro 2.66 running OS X 10.6. On booting up for the first time I restored from my Time machine backup (via setup assistant) and opted for migration of all files, applications, user profiles etc.
    My main user (with admin privileges) is normally encrypted with File Vault but when I've tried to log in it's coming up with error(3) message. any ideas as to the problem and how to fix?

    I can't find it! not sure what's going on but the only folder shown is the " Shared" folder.
    Did you have only the one user account? If there were others, they should also be in the "Users" folder. You probably won't have access to the files inside them, but they should be there.
    From what can make out, it looks like it's not backed up any of the files for the filevault account. Can't see user folder when looking through previous backups in Time Machine galaxy view.
    Are you doing that from a Finder window set to your internal HD, or your computer name? It should look something like this (with the Finder in List view):
    |
    |
    I'd been logging out and backing up manually on a regular basis.
    Scheduled backups should run normally; but they won't back up the File Vault sparse bundle, nor will any run manually.
    The only time it's backed-up is when you actually log out.
    You should have seen this window on logout:
    |
    |
    followed by this one:
    |
    |
    If you didn't see the second one, or cancelled it, the account wasn't backed-up.

  • Mail and Time Machine

    This morning Mail went crazy. All the messages and mailboxes disappeared, so I went back a few hours in Time Machine and "restored" mail. Now I have an inbox with messages, but the rest of the mailboxes (about 45 of them) are gone. In their place are three folders called "restored mailboxes" that do not open. I went to Mailboxes/rebuild, but my mailboxes did not reappear. I tried Time Machine again, with the same result. Is there any way to get my individual mailboxes with their messages back?
    Thanks everyone

    Remember, if you check e-mail with IMAP, messages are stored at the internet service provider (also known as the server) unless otherwise specified.    Only messages that are stored on your Mac will be recoverable using Time Machine.

  • Mail and Time Machine freeze

    Hello,
    somehow a note from within Mail disappeared. In order to restore it, I started Mail and then Time Machine. Mail appeared within TM and everything looked fine. But I couldn't do anything. Couldn't select a message in my inbox, a note, ... The only way to regain control was to use command-alt-escape, which killed both Mail and TM and brought back my desktop.
    This happens everytime I try to start Mail & TM. Nothing so far helped (repair permissions, check hdd).
    Any ideas?

    No idea anyone?

  • Problems with initial set up for mail and other things

    I am having issues with mail set up and getting printers and other things work with Mac Pro Book, since i am new convert i am feeling really frustrated with these things, anyone out there has experince in mac mail set ups and other instatlations like msn messanger etc.

    Sorry you are having problems but you need to provide more detailed information about the problems such as what type of email account are you trying to set up in Mail - .Mac, IMAP or POP and is this account provided by your ISP used for connecting to the internet or by an email account provider?
    What happens including error messages provided when trying to create the email account in Mail?
    Regarding a printer problem, this is the Mail & Address Book forum. You should post a question about printer issues with detailed information such as the make and model of your printer and what you have tried to this point at the Printer & Faxing forum here.
    http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=756
    Installing MSN Messenger should be easy. I believe Messenger does not include an installer and is provided as package via a disk image that only requires dragging the application from the mounted disk image to your Applications folder which copies the application package from the mounted disk image to your hard drive.
    What problems are you having with installing Messenger?

  • Having the same problem with Aol not sending my mail and getting error message. If I delete this account, what will happen? This is on my iPad, and I also have a gmail and Yahoo account.

    This happened after I was hacked.

    If you delete that account from your iPad, all messages from it will be removed. You can then go back into Settings, then Mail, Contacts, Calendars and 'Add Account' to add it back onto your iPad.

  • I recently updated to Mac OS 10.6.5 so Firefox will not quit (unless forced to quit), and I get the following error message. "The application Firefox.app can't be opened -600." Same problem with Safari, Google Earth, I-Tunes, and Adobe Acrobat Reader.

    I have to actually force quit these applications for this to work. How do I fix this. I also upgraded to Firefox 3.6.13.

    Hi there,
    You're running an old version of Safari. Before troubleshooting, try updating it to the latest version: 6.0. You can do this by clicking the Apple logo in the top left, then clicking Software update.
    You can also update to the latest version of OS X, 10.8 Mountain Lion, from the Mac App Store for $19.99, which will automatically install Safari 6 as well, but this isn't essential, only reccomended.
    Thanks, let me know if the update helps,
    Nathan

  • 2 mac with leopard, 1 ethernet Hard drive and Time machine : Does it work ?

    I have 2 Imac with leopard connected by wireless to my local network (Linksys routeur).
    I want to buy a ethernet 500Go drive to do my backup. This drive will be connected to the routeur with a cable.
    Will I able to use TM with this configuration ?
    If case of big problem, could I restore my data ?
    Sorry if this question is already posted, I didn't find same case.
    Bruno

    Well, currently Apple doesn't support using a NAS drive.
    The official line is that the hard drive be connected to the client Mac or anther Mac running Leopard. Some people have found ways to make a NAS work, but whether this works in the long run (i.e. reliable) is an open question.

  • Snow leopard and time machine

    Hi, I'm using an iMac 21.5" middle 2010 with Mac OS X snow leopard and Time machine on a Time Capsule with 2 GB.
    Since yesterday the control light is permanantly flashing yellow, but nevertheless time machine is working an signed a complete bachup, last 2 hrs before.
    I'm not sure, if all is correct. Can anybody help?
    Many thanks
    scharamer

    It may just be telling you about the latest firmware update.
    Start AirPort Utility (in your Applications/Utilities folder).
    Click Manual Setup
    Click directly on the word Status (2nd line) and AirPort Utility will indicate what's wrong.
    If your network seems to be working OK, the flashing light might indicate that an update for your AirPort device is now available.

  • Problems with Safari and Firefox (HTTP?)

    Problems with Safari and Firefox (HTTP?)
    On a laptop G4, 10.5.8 and Safari 5.02 I experience the following:
    On the account of my oldest daughter everything works fine, i.e. wireless internet works and no problems with mail or safari.
    On the same laptop, on the account of my other daughter, the wireless is OK, she can mail etc. But safari nor firefox works. It says: can’t find server (whatever site) and in the activity window it looks if safari tries to open files (in the safari preferences-folder) in stead of http. Same applies to Firefox, so maybe it has more to do with HTTP in general?
    What goes wrong? What to do? I tried the following on the host terminal (tips from Apple)
    defaults write com.apple.safari WebKitDNSPrefetchingEnabled -boolean false
    and
    defaults delete com.apple.safari WebKitDNSPrefetchingEnabled
    but that did not help,
    Nanne

    I'm still wondering why it happens now at this moment in time...
    PC does seem to be a bit odd & inconsistent, the few times I've tested with it, at least so far as we content filtering goes; and if I remember rightly, you're not the first to report previously ok settings suddenly preventing some or all internet until pc is switched off altogether.
    It may work when re-enabled

  • Problems with Safari, Firefox and Flash player

    Ever since I got my new iMac that has Snow Leopard I've had problems with Safari and Firefox freezing or crashing. It appears that part of the problem is the Flash plugin because sometimes a screen pops up and says something like: the flash script is having problems. I've tried uninstalling & reinstalling Flash, Safari and Firefox but the problem is still there. My browser seems to hang up or freeze a lot no matter if I use Safari or Firefox.
    Any ideas?
    I just discovered the Chrome browser from Google this morning and so far its working very well. No freezes and it appears to handle Flash video without any problems.
    How can that be?
    Thanks

    Ah! The proverbial missing information. Why the regrets? Most people are having no issues migrating from previous computers; it's the preferred method. See Best Practices and Setup new Mac. You're a long way from starting over.

  • Problem with safari and wallpaper etc

    I have a problem with safari and dashboard wallpaper... After rebot i loose history and topsites from safari. My deskboard wallpaper swiched back to this http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs28/f/2008/097/f/8/MacbookPro_Wallpaper_by_desingsblp.jpg
    Whats is wrong with my mac?

    HI and welcome...
    Remove that particular desktop wallpaper. That's probably what's causing your to lose History and TopSites.
    Open a Finder window. Now open the Library folder then the Safari folder. See if that wallpaper is hiding in the Safari folder. Mine does that also. If it's there, move it to the Trash but don't empty the Trash.
    Quit Safari (Command + Q) Now relaunch Safari. If History and TopSites are ok, then empty the Trash. It's that image causing the problem.
