Safari 4 Final Issue with Home Page Preference

In Safari > Preferences > General:
At the moment, my General prefs are set as --
Default browser: Safari.app (4.0.2)
New windows open with: Same
New tabs open with: Same
Home Page: http://www.google.co.uk/
Remove History: Manually
Save d/l'd files to: Desktop
Remove d/l'd items: Upon Successful d/l
Open safe files after d/l'ing: checked
Open links from apps: in new window
...the reason being, unless I set "New windows/tabs open with..." to exactly the same option/URL as the home page (or vice-versa, unless the home page is set the same as "new windows/tabs open with..."), Safari 4 Final will only open to whatever is set in "New windows/tabs...", not the selection I've made for my home page.
It does not matter what URL I use for Home -- http, https, a Google account, a non-Google account, etc. -- Safari 4 Final will not open with my preferred home page.
I would rather have:
New windows/tabs open with: Bookmarks
Home Page: http://www.google.co.uk/
-OR-
New windows/tabs open with: Bookmarks
Home Page: https://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLogin
I've searched diligently for a solution via MRoogle, Google, Apple forums, for several hours. I've deleted the Safari plist and restarted, I've performed every standard, recommended ploy (archive & install, Disk Utility, ya-da, ya-da) and I have....nada.
So, here I am at last, exhausted, hoping my faithful pro pals will drop by with some useful 411. Thanks, gang!
:::sudden idea -- is there a possibility of conflict somehow with the Top Sites concept and opting for a home page? I don't use the TS feature at all. :::

HI,
Unless you leave your Mac on between 3:15 and 5:30am in your time zone, it can't run cron tasks for you (maintenance) which can help with the Safari issue.
Try forcing background maintenance, instructions here.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2319
If using the Terminal application seems daunting... get Cocktail It's free and easy to use. Once it's installed click the Pilot tab, then click Tasks and click Run. This will run maintenance. When it's finished Quit Cocktail and restart your Mac.
Hopefully you will be able to set a home page now.

Can't get safari to open with home page

I have set google as my homepage in Preferences, but Safari invariably opens with the last page I had used before quitting. I've tried both "Set as Current Page" (being on google, of course), as well as typing in google's URL.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

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.
If that didn't help, copy and paste the following:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
Click Go then move the com.apple.Safari.plist file to the Trash
Try resetting your home page.

Safari will not remember home page

This actually happened when I originally upgraded to Lion but has continued with Mountain Lion. I have a Mac Mini and an iMac and this occurs on both computers. When I open Safari rather than going to the home page as it did with Snow Leopard it returns to the last page I visited. I checked Safari preferences and it shows my home page as set properly. Is there any other thing that needs to to set in preferences so Safari opens to the home page? I have cleared history, reset Safari and anything else I can think of but it continues ot return to the last page visited. What am I missing?

Try troubleshooting the Safari .plist (preferences) on one of the Macs.
Quit Safari then open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type this exactly as you see it here:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
Click Go then move the com.apple.Safari.plist file to the Desktop.
Relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, move the .plist file to the Trash. If not, move it back to the Preferences folder.

Only Safari won't show home page image

Helo
Having problems with home page image showing in only Safari (
www.truthandlife.info ). May be a css problem, but I don't know...
Originally, we had to alter the drop down menu becasue it
wouldn't work on Safari, so a friend fixed that but that fix took
away the main image - he writes:
"I found some other information that suggested setting the
ClientTarget attribute to “uplevel” when you detect the
Safari or Opera browsers.
I went ahead and implemented that by creating a base class
called BasePage (in the App_Code folder) and made every page load
derive from it using the “Inherits” parameter. This
seemed to solve the problem on Safari (I don’t have Opera)
without affecting IE7. Note that all new pages you create need to
have the Inherits=”BasePage” tag set in their
<Page> element.
So all is good in that the submenus pop up as we would
expect…but there is a problem with the graphic on the default
page. The main image doesn’t load on the Safari browser
unless I remove that ClientTarget=”uplevel” statement.
If I remove it, then the menus don’t work."
===============
So does anyone know what might be the problem and/or fix?
Thanks

Still trying of course - so
I redid that alternate masthead for ie5.5 and updated the
link - yes, now the ALTERNATE banner shows but NOT the image I
need, which DOES still show in other browsers. Only in Safari does
the alternate masthead now show, but not the main masthead needed.
Below is the code that directs the alternate image for ie 5.5
but why would this affect Safari?
=============
using System;
using System.Data;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Collections;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Security;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;
using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;
public partial class DefaultPage : BasePage
protected void Page_LoadComplete(object sender, EventArgs e)
if (!IsCallback)
// IE 5.5 isn't able to render the dynamic menu items
correctly if
// the size of the header image is too large. To work around
this problem,
// IE 5.5 gets a different header image than the other
browsers.
if (Request.Browser.Id == "ie55")
mastheadImg.ImageUrl =
String.Format("~/Images/homepage/masthead9.jpg", Page.Theme != null
? Page.Theme : Page.StyleSheetTheme);
mastheadImg.Height = 206;
litHeaderHeight.Text = "206px";
===============
Coupled with the BASE page code in my previous post, maybe
there's a fix in one of these?
Any thoughts?

Safari won't hold Home Page change

I change the homepage to Google, it stays maybe 2-3 times in future sign-ons, then reverts back to apple start page default. Why will Safari not hold a home page selection??

Thanks, Yes, I have run all the software updates, including the latest 10.5.2. I do not have any other browser other than Safari as a default. It will only hold my home page change for 2 or 3 logon's then reverts back to apple.com default page.
It does not do this with my wife's Macbook, just my Macbook Pro.
Why would a software update screw it up?

I'm not sure I've got a grasp on the issue you are having but let me give it a try
Website A is finished and you have uploaded it to the Internet, so it is LIVE.
You make a copy of Website A, and call it Website B, then make all required changes.
IF you uploaded Website B, then it is likely you will overwrite Website A. You must instead, upload Website B as a separate Website.
To publish to a new site:
Click Publish.
Then click the expansion triangle left of Options.
Change Publish To setting to New Site
fill out rest of required details, and click OK to publish.
You'll now have two separate web-sites.
If you need to link between them, use absolute hyperlinks (the full URL).
Hope this helps.

It is possible that there is a problem with the files [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]

If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note).

Having an issue with a page in the internet

Hello,
I registered to the forum a few days ago but did not introduce myself. Please accept my apology.
I have a Blackberry style 9670 model, of which I am very happy with.
I was having an issue with a page in the internet, in which I was receiving errors on my device. My daughter has a Blackberry Curve and she was able to access the page without any errors. I can not figure out why I do.
Thanks

I am not sure if this is the same issue but there was a bug that caused small exchange numbers to become negative which was resolved in one of the 11.1.1.3 patches, it is worth logging into My Oracle Support and having a look at the patches available.
9588147 – In exchange rates table, entering very small values become negative after you save the data forms. For example, 0.000071 becomes –7.1E-5 after you save the exchange rate.
Cheers

IPad 4th gen seems that Safari will return to home page when new mail downloads during web

iPad 4th Gen. Safari will return to home page when it seems to download new mail when I'm on the web!

Clear Safari, close Safari completely and reset your iPad.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear Cookies and Data.
In order to close apps in iOS 7, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Problems with Safari 7.1.2 search engine and home page preferences

I'm using Mavericks OSX.9.5 on Safari 7.1.2. I set my Safari preferences to use Google as the default search engine, and apple.com as my homepage. However, Safari keeps opening the search engine to yahoo.com, and my home page as only-search.com. I have no idea what is going on. I feel like my computer as been hijacked! I've quit and restarted Safari, only to find that the preferences is showing Google correctly as my search engine (but still goes to yahoo), and my homepage reverts to only-search com. No matter how many times I change it in Safari preferences I can't get it to work correctly. I've reset Safari completely, with the same results after the reset. I'd appreciate any suggestions and help.

Did this resolve my Safari 5 issue with not loading pages as fast?

I've been having this problem every since I got my laptop a month ago... I have a wireless router that's connected to a PC, and I use wireless on my laptop. My old laptop was a PC, and the internet connection was just fine on it. However, I'm having issues with my MacBook Pro. When I first turned on my laptop after taking it out of the box, Airport detected my wireless router and connected me to the internet. Obviously, I used Safari 5 as my browser and although it works... it doesn't load the pages as fast as it should. It even stops loading at times. Usually, I quit Safari and reopen Safari and it works and if it doesn't, I click on the reload button or just keep re-opening Safari until it does work... buttt I am tired of doing that now. So after a lot of attempts by trial and error, I think I found the solution and was wondering if anyone could confirm this with me. I went to my router's IP address and I looked at the settings. I looked at the router's DNS settings and I copied and pasted that router setting into the DNS settings on my laptop for the wireless network. Now, my internet seems to be working... but then again it has only been 5 minutes. So my question is... the router's DNS has to match the wireless network's DNS address?
Sorry if this sounds like a stupid question... I'm not an expert when it comes to internet, LAN, proxies, and etc. settings. Thank you!

Further investigation has revealed that the following error message is being generated within Safari during the first time the that the page is loading,
"Refused to load from document base URL. URL found within request."
The <base> directive in the HTML, in this instance, is referring to a different URL than the one that the page is running from. The page with the problem is running on a remote server and back referencing to the home server for the <base> reference. This fails when the page first loads but seems to be accepted if a page-reload is done. It also works on all other browsers that have been tested.
Is this related to a security setting in the browser?

Safari 6.1 will not open with home page

I can't find a sensible setting in Safari 6.1 for opening up and opening new windows.
I really need the product to open onto the "home page", and open new windows with the "same page".
Can I downgrade?

>>...open onto the "home page", and open new windows with the "same page".
There aren't options to get that - as you've probably seen, 'Safari opens with' has only two choices, & if you choose 'A new window' there, you'll get whatever is set for 'New windows open with'.
