Safari 5.0 (7533.16) Missing ToolMenu (or ToolBar)

Sometimes the toolmenu shows up and sometimes it goes MIA
not sure whether this is a bug of any of the extensions that I have installed
how can I print a list of the extensions installed ?

Hmmmm ... that fits with a slightly damaged, com.apple.safari plist, I think.
Let's try rebuilding that plist ... although the following user tip is about a different issue caused by a damaged com.apple.safari plist and about an earlier version, the instructions still are accurate for a 5.0:

After rebuilding the plist file, and getting your bars set up again how you like them, does your Tool Bar stay around for you more reliably?

  • Safari is giving me a missing plug in message when I try to view things like movie trailers. The trailers play on Firefox, so I'm not sure what's missing from Safari.

    Safari is giving me a missing plug in message when I try to view things like movie trailers. The trailers play on Firefox, so I'm not sure what's missing from Safari.  I have Safari 5.0.6 and Mac OS X 10.5.8.

    I just noticed that it won't play some newsite videos anymore either. What plug in do I need to update (if that's the problem)?

  • Safari icon in Dock is missing!

    The icon of Safari in my dock is missing, I think it happened after it crashed (my dock auto-hides, so I'm not 100%)
    I've tried re-starting, all that...
    How do I get it back without 'reseting' Safari (if that even works)... or at least reseting as few of the checkboxes as possible?
    By the way, Safari has been very incompatible with the internet since the update to Safari 5... Flash plugin crashes all the time - YouTube; doesn't work well with Facebook - videos, posting links, etc.; and various other bugs.
    (I have the newest versions of everything - MBP, Safari, etc.)

    Hello U:
    Close Safari (it is open with the missing icon in your post). If the blank icon is there, drag it off the dock and then drag the Safari icon from applications to the dock.
    To try to address the other problems, try trashing a preference file (com.apple.safari.plist) and restarting.
    If the crashing continues, post the crash report. I do not read them well, but some people here can use the report to troubleshoot.

  • All of a sudden I cannot launch Safari because of popup saying cannot support community toolbar?

    I am getting pop up saying "this version of Safari browser cannot support community toolbar" therefore I cannot launch Safari. ????

    Try Safari forum. I know the issue with toolbars has come up in the past so you could also search this forum.
    Security updates and new versions often do affect extensions and functionality.

  • Safari 8.0 Title Bar missing?

    I just updated to Yosemite 10.10.1 and got Safari 8.0 in the bargain.
    It's working fine, except there are no title bars on the top of the page. At the very top, I have the RYG traffic light, and next to it my buttons and the search field, but the title bar, which should be above that and display the page title, is missing. There doesn't seem to be a preference or option for this. Am I missing something?
    I can't believe Apple did away with something so useful (although their "improvements" aren't always an improvement), so I'm assuming there's something wrong and it's not just a new "feature"
    Thanks for any replies.

    There are several things about the appearance of yosemite that I don't like, and I just started using it. Mainly the title bars of most applications are so blandly indistinguishable, when I want to click on a title bar and move a window, I often click on the wrong thing, often popping a different window to the top that I don't want...
    Now when in Safari, I don't know where I am in within a site unless I click on the url box… Maybe there is a preference setting, so much to figure out.
    As for your complaint, I think it is that you cannot see the complete descriptive title of the web page when several tabs are open. If you just place the mouse curser on the tab, and leave it there for a second or two (be patient!), the complete title appears in a pop up display box. If you move to another tab after that, usually the display box comes up without the 1-2 second delay. Usually, but not always. Usually, but not always? I'm still figuring some of this out. If you move on top the "x" close box, it eventually pops up an entirely different message, and sometimes when you get that, then it doesn't pop up the title even if you move off the box, you have to move completely off that tab and then back on again.
    I've always hated the close box within the tab : When using tabs, if you want to view the web page that has a tab, then click on tab, EXCEPT don't click anywhere on the left part of the tab otherwise you might click on the previously invisible close box which then does the opposite of what you want, it closes the tab! It is a bit better in Firefox, but still bad design.
    The descriptive title pop up thing worked in the old safari, at least in 6.2, also.
    When only one tab is open, I'm not sure how to see the descriptive title at all, except go to the top menu bar and click on window, and look at what has the check mark? Time to experiment with preferences.     Grrr.

  • Safari 7.1.2 -duckduckgo missing from Dropdown?

    Recently, I noticed duckduckgo was missing from my Right-Click option to search using it.  Instead google was there.  So I went to Preferences, General to select it from the drop down.
    It is not in the drop-down.  Only the 3:  google, yahoo, bing.
    It was there before, now just gone.
    I'm running Mavericks 10.9.5, and it's Safari 7.1.3.
    On my macbook, which is still Safari 7.1.2 (I know time to update which I was about to do on both when I discovered this!)
    How do I get the "duckduckgo" back into the "Default Search Engine" List?
    I've searched the forums, but just can't find this issue.
    Please help!

    Oops meant to say, " On my macbook, which is still Safari 7.1.2, the duckduckgo search engine is still default and still shows in the drop-down.

  • The Safari and Camera apps are missing from my iPhone.

    I had a problem with restoring my purchased apps on my iPhone. With help I was able to get them restored. However, now the original apps are missing - camera and safari. It's possible there are more, but I can't remember all those that were original with the phone.

    I would check your other apps folders and see if it was misplaced in there.  IF you still can't find it, then go to settings - general - reset - reset home screen layout.

  • Two things I hate about Safari 6 - or am I missing something?

    I work on the Web on desktop Mac Pros and Safari is my favorite browser for any number of reasons.
    But two "improvements" are particularly frustrating:
    1) Opt+Com+U
    Now it opens some small box at the bottom of the window — is there a way to get the old behavior back where it opens a new window and I can easily enlarge the box to inspect the source code?
    2) Safari> Empty Cache (where'd it go?)
    Yikes, now I need to go into Preferences> Privacy and clear out All Cookies and Data to empty my Cache?
    Or am I missing something, how do I simply clear my cache to ensure my pages completely refresh?
    I use these features many times a day in a fast paced work environment and the "improvements" seem counter intuitive...

    Yes. Click the overlapping rectangle icon to the right of the close box (let me know if you need a screenshot). This segregates the debug console into its own window. To undo it click the same icon - its appearance changes to another sort of rectangle but you'll figure it out.
    For some reason Apple thought it was better to obscure the Empty Caches option in the Develop menu, which you must enable in Safari Preferences > Advanced. Keyboard shortcut ⌘ option E
    All its previous functions remain, they're just in different places.

  • My safari browser seems to be missing on my 3g iphone.  How do I get it back?

    I seem to have deleted my Safari browser on my 3g iphone.  Any idea how to recover or reinstall?

    No you can't delete Safari. Look in your folder or other pages.
    Maybe you have Settings > General > Restrictions on?
    If not, do Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout.

  • The safari icon has vanished & is missing in settings

    Has anyone ever heard of this?  safari has just left my phone...

    You might have did some security thing. Go into settings then general then restrictions set it to no restrictions.
    Or if you held onto the icon you could have moved it to another page. You can't delete it.

  • Safari 5.1 Download window missing

    For the general Safari users, and hopfully I am not being too cranky with this one, but...
    Safari just made my life harder...
    When I have no windows open, I can not see what Safari is downloading.
    Why should I not be able to see what safari is downloading with no windows open?
    The result is that at a point in using safari, I can not see my downloads without having to first open a window, then click on the downloads icon.
    There is also no keystroke for downloads now, so the safari in lion has become harder to use, by forcing 2 clicks, over a keystroke.
    Chrome has a download window and a keyboard shortcut...
    This is a regression, is it not?
    If you have any Safari app designer's ear, please ask them to consider a downloads window again.
    Thanks

    I agree.
    Apple please bring back the floating download window in safari - and allow it to sit outside (seperate) of the safari window as per the previous version. I have now had to switch to Firefox which is clunky and not prefered.
    When dealing with hundreds of downloads per day, it's now impossible to monitor the status of multiple downloads. Our work flow revolves around having the downloads window open on a second display which is mirrored internally across several studios. Now I need to dedicate a staff member to check critical downloads, and re open the pop up each time a new download is triggered.
    Everything else, perfect. Please reinstate the seperate window.

  • Safari Top Sites Blue Stars Missing

    As of yesterday, Top Sites no longer shows the little blue stars when a page is updated. I can force them to appear if I quit Safari and restart it, but they won't update on their own as they used to periodically, even though the thumbnails still update. I tried using time machine to replace the app file and preferences from several days ago, but this hasn't solved the problem. Any ideas?

    Hey guys.
    Need to join the desperate team. My Top sites wont allow any other manually added site - it will get deleted right after i restart safari.
    I have checked the other forums where were suggestion for binning the com.apple.safari and top sites plist - doesn't work. Standard cleaning procedure like emptying cash, reseting safari or not too standard binning some preferences files - not working. None of them is in banned sites - i binned it also
    I need to add its a new thing because it was working until last week. Maybe some updates could damage something, though i can remember any new updates in last two weeks. Please be geeks, find the answare, it was very cool feature and its pitty its not working.

Maybe you are looking for
