Re: Safari 6.0.5 on OS 10.8.4 doesn't work anymore.

I'm also having a problem with Safari. I am running OS X 10.8.4 and the system locks up if I try to start Safari. The only thing that I can think of is that i've some problem with a popup ad that doesn't want to go away so that I have benn using Force Quit when the ad appears. The system says that Safari 6.0.5 is loaded.
<Edited by Host>

See if you can do this before you have to force quit ...
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that didn't help, select the Security tab from the Preferences window then deselect: Allow all other plug-Ins
Quit and relaunch Safari. If the pop ad does not appear, then you need to troubleshoot plugins.

Safari 5.1.9 on OS 10.6.8 doesn't work anymore.

Hi,
Everytime I open Safari 5.1.9 on OS 10.6.8, it litterally freezes my iMac for at least 10 minutes (can't even do Force Quit!) and then shuts.
I thought the Java for 10.6 update was going to solve the problem, but it didn't.
Anybody else has that problem? What's going on?
Thanks!
Chris.

The Software update version is bonked, the latest bug fix is here

Pasting: java -version into Terminal and pressing Enter should reveal this after the update which fixes the bug.

My safari doesn't work anymore!, My safari doesn't work anymore!

My safari doesn't work anymore!

Hello ! I have the same problem ... more or less. The Safari we have on one of the MacBooks' here doesn't work any longer. That happened after I both downloaded and installed the updated for Safari two weeks ago or so- and (simultaneously) ran an application called "MacKeeper". Maybe that was the "bug"? ... because after that Safari collapsed, but nothing else. I tried to reset all on Safari, copied even manually all preferences of Safari from another MacBook that worked onto mine, but no chance. Safari is blank when I try to open it, nothing happens, except from making the rest of my MacBook also work slow. Now I have to use Firefox, that works, but I don't want to use this browser, I would like to have Safari back.
My question is the same: Is there at all a chance to fix this problem? Any advice from you guys out there is highly appreciated!

Try the steps here that you can accomplish. You can use this program to place the iPod in recopvery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Pinching in Safari doesn't work anymore..

In ML it was possible to pinch and get an overview of your tabs.
As I discovered recently this doesn't work anymore.
Pinching to get tab overview doesn''t work anymore and pinching to zoom in/out either.
Any solutions or thoughts on this issue? Perhaps involving the recent Safari update in ML?

Please read this whole message before doing anything. This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it. Step 1 The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account. Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up guest users” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.” While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin. Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem? After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it. *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing. Step 2 The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The login screen appears even if you usually log in 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. *Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

Safari doesn't work anymore on my iPad- it hangs completely. Anyone knows how to recover?

Safari doesn't work anymore on my iPad- it hangs completely. Anyone knows how to recover?

Repeated to another user:
I have had the same issue since the release of iOS7. I even went as far as a factory reset of my iPad 2 and did not restore from any backup. Safari still will not load any pages. It hangs then stops.
I have tried the steps above so please don't repeat them. I refuse to believe I am the only person on the planet that cannot get a resolution for this?
Please, somebody, help me fix this. It's extremely annoying that the default browser cannot be change yet will not work.

Help! I can't get or send mail or messages. My safari and chome won't connect. App Store doesn't work. I have changed my Apple ID and rebooted. What next??

I have kept getting some sort of messages about my apple id or icloud being disabled or something like that. My mail @me.com doesn't work, I can't send messages, Safari and Chrome won't let me do anything. First I thought it was just the Chrome. So I deleted it and then went to the app store to re-load it. I don't know what to do. I'm "old and moldly" so I'm not technically "savy". How can I fix this????

Flickr doesn't work anymore in Safari on my Ipad mini since Ios 7

Since Ios7 my photostream in Flickr uploads just the upper banner and my photos not. Very annoying. Anyone having the same problem?
Thank you in advance,

You cannot install or de-install Safari. Again, it's about Safari, the browser, not the Flickr app.
And by the way, it is not only Flickr, even this discussion I had to edit it in Mercury because some buttons do not work in Safari. I have problems with Safari browser while Mercury or Opera work ok.

Just entering the site name doesn't work anymore in Safari

Before I upgraded to Leopard I was always able to just enter something like "cnn" into the URL field and Safari and Firefox would take me to that website. Now if I do that both browsers take me to a search page, my ISPs search page. Now I'm not sure if it's something with the new OS and I can change a setting or if it has something to do with Time Capsule. I added that to my network around the same time so I can't know for sure which it is. Does anyone know what's going on?
Thanks,
-M

This happens to me and it's very annoying. I don't know why, but it doesn't happen every single time. I'd say only 5% of the time I'm able to type in the site name and hit enter without an error popping up.
This was one of the things I loved about using Mac over Windows.

After internet disconnection, safari doesn't work anymore and i haveO to restore the ipad again and loose my apps, solution?

After internet disconnection, due to bad weather, safari can't find the server anymore and i have to restore the ipad to the factory settings and loose the apps. This has happened at least 5 times in 9 months. Solutions?

What Apple wants from his customers?
1) I've paid my iPhone 4S 900 euros;
2) I'm used to buy music and apps from iTunes store;
3) my iCloud space costs 32 euros per year
and, like me, millions of customers around the world!
and Apple does not allow me (and many others) to use the internet traffic for which I (we) pay my (our) provider, that's not among those that directly sell iPhone??? Is this your idea of a really unblocked device as you falsely declsre from the pages of Apple online store ?!? Shame on you!
If I had know that the 7.1 led to this I'd never updated my iPhone. No one (Apple and the sites that live because of her) told about this issue in their enthusiastic comments on the new, updated version, of iOS. Shame on you!
This would claim a class action against such a behaviour!
I'm disgusted
thank you

XMLhttprequest doesn't work in safari

i have a website and it works fine in Internet Explorer, but the website doesn't work in Safari.
i use xmlhttprequest to get data from the database and that data i want to put in an selectbox.
i have multiple selectboxes and the first one i don't use ajax to get the data and that one works fine. but as soon as i use ajax it doesn't work anymore in safari.
this is the function i call to get the data.
function UpdateOrder(custid)
      var xhrrequest = getXhr();
          // Ici on va voir comment faire du post
      xhrrequest.open("GET","ajax/UpdateOrder.php" +"?q=" + custid, true);
      // ne pas oublier ?a pour le post
      xhrrequest.setRequestHeader('Content-Type','application/x-www-form-urlencoded') ;
      xhrrequest.send("bedrijfsnaam="+custid);
      // On d?fini ce qu'on va faire quand on aura la r?ponse
      xhrrequest.onreadystatechange = function(){
       // On ne fait quelque chose que si on a tout re?u et que le serveur est ok
       if(xhrrequest.readyState==4 && xhrrequest.status==200){
        var string=xhrrequest.responseText;
        var array=eval(string);
        var tdaddress = document.getElementById("tdorderid");
        var selectiebox = document.getElementById("selorderid");
        if (array.length > 0)
         //selectiebox vullen met straatnamen
         var splarray = array.toString();
         var strarray = splarray.split(",");
         var i=0;
         for(i=0; i< strarray.length; i++)
          var oOption=document.createElement("option");
          oOption.setAttribute(i,strarray[i]);
          oOption.setAttribute('value',strarray[i]);
          var oText=document.createTextNode(strarray[i]);
          oOption.appendChild(oText);
          selectiebox.appendChild(oOption);
i also viewed the errorlog and there it said:
Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)
INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: DOM Exception 5: An invalid or illegal character was specified, such as in an XML name.
can anyone help me please?

Link doesn't work in safari landscape mode

Hi All!
Sometime I have problems with links in Safari. If I click on a link, it doesn't work, only when the iPhone is in landscape mode. If I turn the iPhone in portrait mode, I can click on the link correctly.
Is there anyone with this problem?
thanks!
stefano

same thing here, I've talked to apple twice and no resolution
if you move the screen up you can usually get the links to work
also when I do Google searches I can get to the second page of results and then I can go no further

Safari doesn't work with Mountain Lion

I have installed OS X Mountain Lion. Now Safari and Apple Store doesn't work anymore. :-( What can I do? I've tried to Install Safari again but the problem is always the same!

Generally this will solve it, you can also try repairing permissions, once in a while it will help as well:
Repair your permissions. Go to applications then to the "other" folder then go to disk utility, on the left hand side you will see a white box. Select the second option, usually called "mac HD" with that selected click on "repair permissions" in the center towards the bottom of the screen. Wait for it to complete, then see if this fixes the issue.

Safari 5.0.1 Zoom in shortcut doesn't work

The zoom in shortcut ( cmd + ) doesn't work anymore.
The zoom out shortcut (cmd -) does still work.
Zoom in through the menu does work.
Anybody with similar problems or a solution?
I already tried a restart and disabling Snapz Pro X as I recently updated that.

HI,
Try troubleshooting the Safari .plist file.
Open a Finder window. Select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. It has a small house icon. Then open the Library folder then the Preferences folder. Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop. Now launch Safari. If you can "cmd +" then move that .plist file to the Trash.
Also, empty the cache from the Safari Menu Bar.
If you have any third party Safari add-ons, that could be a factor.
