Safari 5.1.8 not opening in lion 10.7.5 on a 2008 MacBook

There does not seem to be a way to delete it nor redownload it.

nevermind.  i found the fix.  https://discussions.apple.com/message/15682076#15682076

sudo  /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Resources/k ickstart -deactivate -configure -access -off
sudo  /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Resources/k ickstart -activate -configure -access -on -restart -agent -privs -all

  • Safari and iTunes will not open on my Macbook Air after Migration Assistant

    I did the Migration Assistant via wireless (from Macbook Pro TO Macbook Air) last night and it did work. However, my Safari and iTunes will not open on my Macbook Air now. The error messages are as follows:
    Safari: "Safari quit unexpectedly. Click Reopen to open the application again. Click Report to see more detailed information and send a report to Apple."
      - I tried reopening the app, restarting, and shutting down the computer. Nothing has worked.
    iTunes: "The file 'iTunes Library.itl' cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes. Would you like to download iTunes now?"
      - I clicked "Download iTunes" but then another message comes up that all my software is up to date.
    Any help is very appreciated.

    Try repairing permissions using Disk Utility.

    I fixed the issue. It was related to the DEP settings on my windows machine.

  • Safari 5.1 does not open local html files

    Safari 5.1 does not open local html files (with .htm or .html extensions). It fails on files that previous versions of Safari opened. Firefox continues to open them. Any suggestions?

    Turn this option off:

  • Safari and Mail will not open.

    Just opened Pwer Mac G4 with 10.4.11 but Safari and Mail will not open. Have all software updates. Firefox open and browses. What could be wrong?

    Hi-
    Try booting in Safe mode and see if the applications work there.
    Hold Shift while starting to boot to Safe mode.
    If things work, reboot normally and see if the issue is resolved.
    If not, download and install the 10.4.11 Combo Update and install (again is not a problem).
    This should correct any issues due to absent files.

  • Safari and Firefox do not open search engines

    I have an IMac 8.1, with OS 10.5.8.  Recently, our internet browser programs (safari and firefox) will not open any search engine (google, bing or yahoo).  However, I am able to navigate to web-sites that I manually type in (e.g., www.cnn.com). Does anyone know what the cause, and fix, to this issue?  Also, this behavior did coincide with a recent update to our Intego Antivirus software, but I think this is unrelated.
    Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks,

    Maybe not. Most, if not almost all, anti-virus software interferes with OS X and is not required.
    Try installing Glims:
    If you want to fix your Google search to a specific Google location, I recommend that you download and install the free plug-in Glims:
    http://www.machangout.com/
    which not only does that but much more equally useful stuff! Such as enabling Safari to run full-screen, and more.)
    (It adds items to Safari Preferences).
    Not only does it already list a number of search engines and regions, but you can also add any other search engine not already listed in Glims by using the method described here:
    http://www.machangout.com/tutorials/addsearchengine
    Just enter the name you give the search engine in the name field, and the URL for it in the Query URL field.

    Have you informed Apple of your problem?
    Yosemite sometimes has problems, often related to "default" permissions needing to be changed

  • Safari and Mail will not open after software update

    After doing the monthly software update yesterday, my Mail and Safari programs will not open. I click on the icon in the dock or in the Applications folder and I get nothing. The icon in the dock jumps, but nothing opens. I've read several other discussions and tried dragging several files out of the library, such as plist files and history, etc., but they still won't open. The software update only updated iTunes and iPhoto and included the most recent security update. I have not tried to reload Safari. If I do that (and it works), what do I need to do for Mail? Will I lose all my emails? Can someone tell me what I can do to get both programs back working properly? Thanks!

    Another approach is to reapply the 10.3.9 combined update. "Repair permissions" via Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    As far as your e-mail's are concerned, the database files are maintained in your User account>Library>Mail folder. It's very important you backup this folder periodically to external media regardless of circumstances to preclude losing your e-mails in the event of file corruption.
    Best maintenance strategy is a full backup of your HD on a bootable external (firewire) hard drive. Makes life a lot easier in the event you need to revert your HD to its state prior to an System Update gone bad.

  • Safari AND Firefox will not open Flickr or Yahoo

    Hi
    I'm running MAC OS X 10.7.5, Safari version 6.1.3 and Firefox 29.0.1.
    Both Flickr and any related Yahoo page will NOT open on either browser.
    WHen I try to open Flickr, Firefox comes up with the error message 'Unable to connect. Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.flickr.com'
    Safari comes up with a grey screen and the error message 'Safari can't connect to the server. Safari can't open the page https://www.flickr.com because Safari can't connect to the server www.flickr.com'.
    When I try Yahoo the Yahoo home page loads but everything is in blue text and a very basic version. If I click on any of the links the same error messages as above show up.
    This has been happening for about 6 months. I was originally only using Safari, but installed Firefox only this evening in an attempt to try and solve the problem, but it has not helped. I get the same problem on both browsers.  Safari worked fine before. I cannot remember anything happening or any change of setting that may have set this off. I have trawled every forum imaginable and followed all the advice I can find, to no avail. I have tried:
    Clearing out caches. Regularly.
    Resetting Safari
    Changing the DNS settings
    Looking into the Ipv6 settings (there is no option to turn it 'off'. Changing it to 'link local' only turned the WiFi off
    Turning the Firewall off.
    Turning the Firewall back on.
    I have not tried changing any router settings as I'm not sure how. But I can open Yahoo and Flickr no problem using my HTC phone so it can't be a router problem?  I am tearing my hair out here! I read somewhere that Yahoo and Flickr are very closely linked, so the problem must be related to a setting with these sites?
    Can anyone out there help? Please!!

    Marwood71,
    yes, Yahoo! bought Flickr back in 2005, so they are closely linked.
    If you’re trying to use Flickr’s secure HTTP site, then try connecting to https://secure.flickr.com/ instead.

  • Preview will not open in Lion

    After up grading to Lion my Preview and TextEdit will not open.  So far I have:
    1. Followed instructions for removing a Symlink.  When in terminal to rm ~/Downloads, I get a message saying downloads is a directory and nothing happens.
    2. I have used Disk Utility to repair permissions.  Nothing happens.
    3. I have gone looking for my Library - for some reason it doesn't appear hidden on my system - but still do the Go>option key>Library and get info.
    My account says 'Read and Write'.
    4. I tried adding an account, but all it shows is "Fetching..."  Been Fetching for a couple hours now.
    5. When I login as a Guest, it works.
    Any suggestions since it is obvious Apple themselves don't care.  You would think after F!ing up peoples OS they could post a fix or issue an update.

    I managed to get mine working again by doing this.
    (the error log was saying a folder called containers was not available to write to)
    Open Terminal
    type
    sudo mkdir ~/Library/Containers
    You will need to enter your password to authorise the superuser command
    Then navigate to the Library folder by typing
    cd ~/Library
    then type
    sudo chmod 777 Containers
    enter your password again.... this second command changes the file permissions on containers to allow anyone to read/write/execute the folder
    I hope this works for you!
