Safari 5.1 quits immediately on one user account

After updating this morning (still on Snow Leapord - latest updates installed) Safari 5.1 quits immediately upon opening in my main user account. The "testuser" account works fine. Can't cut and paste the log details between accounts. Sorry

It's a persistent thing eh - there are other places where software can be started per-user, I don't have Tiger here to remind me if the folders/methods have changed - but you might look at Home/Library/Startup Items (and LaunchAgents + LaunchDaemons although these were post-Tiger, I believe) a look in Activity Monitor for user-owned processes may also be helpful.
Only because the crashed thread suggests some unspecified software causing the problem... but crash reports seem to not always be exact.
Failing that, we'll double check that the 4.1.3 webicons are in the safari folder (in which case forget that) rather than in Home/Library/Icons/; try a Safe Boot & test Safari there too.

  • Safari 3.1.2 crashes on startup, but only for one user account

    This is weird: If I'm logged in as one user and launch Safari, it strugggles and grinds the disk for a long time, brings my start page up partway, then crashes. If I'm logged in as another user on the same machine, Safari launches in mere seconds and works fine. I have tried re-installing Safari from scratch, and have also deleted the Library/Safari folder, all to no avail. There is clearly something about this particular user account that's messed up, but I don't know what.
    This is on an 1-GHz iBook G4 running OSX 10.4.11. Safari used to work fine on this user account as well, and I don't know what might have changed.

    First, have you installed any programs in that particular user account that are intended to enhance Safari or otherwise might influence internet/browsing activity? If so, uninstall those programs using their installers (which often have an uninstall option) or an included uninstaller if applicable.
    If you don't have any such programs installed, or that doesn't fix the problem: Make sure you're logged into the account where Safari is having problems, make sure Safari is quit, and then open that user's home folder (indicated in a Finder window sidebar by the little house icon with the username) and open the Library folder inside it, then the Preferences window inside that.
    (In other words navigate to \~/Library/Preferences, where "~" is the user's home folder.)
    Locate the "com.apple.Safari.plist" file in that preferences folder and drag it to the trash.
    Launch Safari and check to see if it's any better now.

  • Magic Mouse works properly only on one user Account

    I just bought a Magic Mouse to use with my PPC Imac.  I have two users set up on this iMac and I set up the mouse while using one of those user accounts.  By the way I set it up to be a left-handed mouse with the left button being for the secondary (right) click. I got the mouse installed and it wasn't working very smoothly.  Then I discovered that I needed to update the software to the Magic Mouse Update 1.0. That seemed to get it working as fine as it could on this old machine and I was quite happy with it.  However, yesterday I switched to the other user account and the Magic Mouse was acting completely weird.  When I clicked on anything it was like a right click with menus popping up.  In addition, it wouldn't single click at all.  I checked in System Preferences that it was set up the same way as on the other account and it was.  I then tried to switch it back to be a normal right-handed mouse.  That gave me some functioning but it was very inconsistent and frustrating.  If it wasn't for the "old" wireless mouse that I had there were moments when I would have been completely stuck.
    Given that it worked fine on the one user account this doesn't seem like a hardward problem to me.  I also installed it on my husband's MacBook Pro running Lion and it works okay in both user accounts.  However, some of the special functions, like Smart Zoom and Mission Control don't seem to be functioning. 
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Did you ever get this resolved. Same thing. In my admin user account it works but in the one I use most I can't swipe scroll or anything?

  • Finder window repeatedly failing - only on one user account

    I have 3 user accounts on my imac. Only one is experiencing the issue - my 13 year old son's... The finder window is rapidly closing and relaunching - every second or so. I did research (to the best of my ability) online and found numerous posts that sound similar but nothing that has helped. Some discuss Google Drive causing the issue - we don't have Google drive. Other mention that upgrading to Maverick caused the issue - we haven't upgraded. Another mentioned starting in Safe Mode and if the issue goes away then it is an automatic log-in issue - tried this and the problem was still there in Safe Mode.
    The error message that comes up states: "The last time you opened finder it unexpectedly quit while reopening windows." It give two options, Close or Relaunch - neither that I can actually select because by the time I even get my mouse moved it has repeated this error 3-4 times.
    Everything else seems to run just fine - I can open other programs and use them just fine - and again this is just on the one user account.
    I'm thinking my best option at this point is to delete his user account? Thoughts??

    Haven't yet figured out what the issue was. But did go and download an app suggested to me called Main Menu. It ran through some clean up and the problem went away!

  • Application runs only in one user account

    Hello,
    While trying to install a Canon LiDE 200 scanner, I am experiencing this very odd problem:
    The "Setup" app on the install CD will only run in one of the two user accounts installed on my macbook (both are admins). In the other, the application opens and asks for the password as usual, after which nothing happens anymore.
    Secondly, once the software is installed (using the other account), it works fine in that other account, but it keeps on crashing ("program quit unexpectedly") upon start in the other (the account in which I in fact need it).
    I have tried creating another new user account, but have the same problem.
    Any ideas on this?
    Regards,
    Alex

    The installer doesn't give anything in the console. It doesn't really crash either, it just keeps running in the dock but nothing happens.
    Once installed, while I try to run the software I get the following in console:

  • ISight not working from one user account on MacBook

    Hi everyone,
    It'd be great to get some help with fixing an iSight camera. I've followed the instructions here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
    and have narrowed it down to a particular user account (it has admin permissions). Other user accounts can access the iSight fine. However, every application I try under that one user account can't access the iSight.
    Unfortunatly it's my wife's account. She quite likes to skype her family in the earthquake prone area of New Zealand called Christchurch.
    Any ideas of things I could try, permissions I could reset, etc would be great.
    I've tried:
    * resetting the PRAM
    * resetting the SMC
    * rebooting
    * fixing disk permissions (from multiple accounts)
    I've got a reasonably techy background, so even telling me the device node that the iSight is accessable on would be useful - that way I can manually check the permissions on that.
    Thanks!
    Tim

    Hi Tim,
    That was partly my fault  (well actually it was entirely my fault)
    I missed this bit:-
    However, every application I try under that one user account can't access the iSight.
    Now it is really Odd that this one user cannot access the camera at all in any App where as other users on the Mac can.
    I would start with the FONT BOOK.
    Check that all Fonts are active, particularly the System Fonts.
    Certain Apple Apps will not work properly if Helvetica or Lucida Grande are turned Off or Missing.
    Basically we are looking for something that she has changed (or has become corrupt) that is not directly linked to the camera but is needed (there is no direct way to turn On or Off the camera access).  (Fonts are first choice)
    Next check the Address Book.
    Is the My Card (Head and Shoulders icon) actually listing her details.
    Have a look at this
    This Apple Article refers to a .plist that is a System wide one.
    However as a .plist it may be the thing that is blocking access to one user.
    I don't have it on my G4/1GHz Dual processor running 10.5.8 but neither do I have iMovie 7 (from iLife '08)
    Some people have reported that removing this gets the camera back for iChat.
    Make the Address Book Export of copy of itself  (File Menu > Export > Archive)
    After that I would try moving (NOT Deleting) the whole contents of her Home Folder/Library/Preferences.
    Then Restart the computer then try specific apps.
    If Skype then works you will know it is one of the .plists that you moved.
    Then comes the monotonous bit of moving back some .plists at a time until you can narrow down the one that is at fault.
    Have you tried a Safe Boot ?  (it will need another restart after it has done that)

  • Itunes not working in one user account

    I'm running OSX 10.6.8 and the latest iTunes software. My iTunes has stopped working on one user account only, the menu is completely greyed out and will not function when launched. To quit iTunes I have to use force quit. I've tried deleting the plist preferences, re-installing iTunes from a back up and also re-installing from new, but the same fault persists. Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.

    Delete all gnome config files before (the .gnome* directories) and also caches and session config (somewhere in .config directory). You will lost all application config, but I do it from time to time and it solves even some application bugs.

  • App lags/crashes in only one user account

    No test repos enabled,  Gnome desktop.
    Nautilus file browser is slow and will crash while opening some folders.
    Same issues with GTK pacman.  (only used for looking at packages. all package manipulation with pacman cl)
    This problem started over a month ago and only recently I'm trying to troubleshoot it.
    If I log in as test user or root, everything runs as it should.
    Would switching between the following  64bit packages to lib32 and  back to 64bit  possible create application problems in one user account?
    gnutls gcc-libs glib glibc glibgtk gtk gtk2 etc
    I have tried reinstalling packages including nautilus and even gnome desktop and gnome extras, removed any ~/ .nautilus files I could find etc.
    Any suggestions would be more than welcome other that creating a new user account.....that would be easy but I wouldn't learn a thing...
    I have searched and found many similar nautilus issues dating back several years, but the fix was usually package updates or reinstall nautilus.
    I have filed a bug at bugzilla gnome, but still trying to find a solution in the meantime.

    Same issue described in another topic: https://discussions.apple.com/message/20368268#20368268
    Confirming this is still issue with 10.8.2 (MacBook Pro Retina 15"), network disk connected to AirPort Extreme.

  • Word, pdf, iPhoto email, don't work on one user account but work on second user account

    I have MacBook Pro running 10.7.  In my main user account I've recently had major issues with several applications.  Word quits on startup, pdf files quit on startup, the latest iPhoto application quits when attemping to send email with photos from iPhoto.
    I set up a second user account and all the issues went away.  Can anyone explain why such bugs are present in one user account by not the more recent one?
    Thanks

    In your wife's account:
    Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    *What's the plist file?*
    For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

  • Multiple users under my name, can I transfer files/data onto just one user account if I have an external H.D.  when I tried to delete info off one of the accounts it said I did not have permission? I assume I was in an account that was not admin.

    I noticed I have set up 4 Admin user accounts under my own name with diff. variations as seen in the attchment.  Some have a diff. password to log on to which I am able to do.  This computer is used for my business and I need info that is scattered on the other 3 accounts to be in/on ONE admin account. 
      I don't know how i ended up with multiple accounts.  Maybe due to having two 24" iMacs and multiple iPhones & iPad2 for me and family.   
    I use this computer for business and personal. 
    Due to multiple Admin user accounts I have important info scattered on the other accounts resulting in some accounts have some of the info to others having much more  but not ALL.   Some accounts have from a couple hundred songs, podcasts, etc. etc.  to a few 1,000 on another Admin account.   
    I want to consolidate ALL of my info, files. songs, podcasts, pictures & email etc. into one Admin account and delete the other accounts to reduce confusion. 
    I was told by my local Apple authorized service shop that it is not easy but moving most of the info is possible.  Their caveat was email would probably not be able to be moved other than forwarding each email I wanted out of each account and opening in the account I wanted to consolidate into. 
    As a side note,  I get an error message at times saying that I do not permission/authority to delete / move files?  What might be the issue when I encounter this type message?
    Thanks for any help.

  • How do I transfer Pages from one user account to another

    How do you transfer Pages from one user account to another on the same Mac?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    If you haven't modified anything, Pages is installed on /Applications. All users have access to this folder, identified as "Applications" on the Finder sidebar, so you don't have to move anything, because Pages will work on all your users.
    If you have installed Pages on ~/Applications (being ~ your user folder), then you have to move Pages to /Applications. After doing this, you will be able to access to Pages on all users

  • Transfer music from one user account to another on the SAME mac?

    My family (wife, son, daughter, and me) share an imac but we all have our own user accounts. Our entire itunes music library is in one user account and is getting to the point of being unmanageable.
    Can I move some of my itunes library (e.g., my son's music) to another user account on the same iMac? Some songs were imported from CD and others were purchased from my Apple ID number.
    It's my understanding that an ipod can only be synced with one itunes library at a time, but I thought Apple also restricted the usage of music bought from itunes to a finite number of computers. If this is true, I think I would be able to transfer a group of songs from one user account to another so long as the user accounts were on the same computer.
    I was told that I could just drag the songs into a shared folder and then log into his account and drop them in iTunes.
    Some specific questions:
    1) Can I move all music files (CD and purchased) to the shared folder for dropping into his account?
    2)The purchased ones were purchased under MY apple ID which I do not want to give him access to. Should I create one for him or just have him use mine and wait for my password. I would like to put an allowance on his new ID number and keep it separate from mine. Would that make a difference in the future if I wanted to use one of his songs on my iPod or in an iMovie project?
    I just reinstalled my Lepoard OS X and put all my data back. I did not deauthorize anything before I did this. Did I need to? Or is even a clean install on the SAME machine ok and seen as the same authorization?
    Thanks in advance!!

    You can give him copies of song files, either by using a shared folder, or by putting the copies on a USB flash drive from which he can copy them to his own iTunes library.
    Any DRM-protected tracks that you have purchased from Apple can only be played if the user has authorization to the account(s) from which the tracks were purchased. Authorization requires physical access to the computer and knowledge of the password, and you can figure it from there!

  • Firefox crashes at start in Safe mode - On ONE user account ONLY

    Firefox crashes at start in Safe mode - On one user account on PC only
    I have done everything on Firefox crash checklist
    No '''Report ID''' since no start.
    So no nothing in further support? See below
    https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox%20crashes#w_check-to-see-if-the-crash-happens-in-safe-mode
    '''Get help fixing this crash'''
    Figuring out the cause of a crash can be difficult. If you've tried the steps above and can't get Firefox to stop crashing, the steps below will show you how to collect information about your crash so our volunteers can help you.
    1. In the Firefox Location bar, type about:crashes and hit Enter. A page listing submitted crash reports will appear. '''NO START so no Firefox Location bar'''
    2. Right-click on the latest crash under Report ID and choose Open Link in New Tab. '''NO START so NO Firefox Report ID and not possible to choose Open Link in New Tab'''.
    A tab will open to a page on crash-stats.mozilla.com, saying that "Your report is being processed". When it is finished processing, your report will load. '''NO START so NO Firefox Report ID and NO report will load so dead end and no help or support possible'''
    3. Click this special link to ask for help with your crash.
    Note: This link is only valid for help with crashes.
    '''I have done this but can not find my question nor any answer neither. So what is next step to find support help?'''

    Hi Max,
    Congratulations, at least you made a stab at solving the problem. I think a lot of users used to glance at that KB article ([[firefox crashes]]) and give up trying!
    Hopefully the crash instructions will be further modified soon, (some of us consider the following is an [/kb/Firefox%20crashes/discuss/1855 omission] that needs correcting) have a look at this article for an explanation of how to get the crash ID from your OS even without using firefox:
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Breakpad#Location_of_crash_reports
    The XP OS is likely to use smoke and mirrors to make it look like you have a totally
    separate installation of firefox for each account, but normally you have the one set of (most) program files, and then for firefox separate [[profiles]]. So this indicates the problem is likely to be in the profile of the problem account, or down to a plugin, malware or other issue relating to that account. <br/>(I note you have already scanned for malware with MSE, that should detect a particular trojan that is a top cause of firefox 6 crashes)
    If you create a new clean profile in that account hopefully it will solve the crash problem, you can then address the issue of copying settings, bookmarks. passwords etc back. BUT before attempting that ensure that you disable all plugins, ([[safe mode]] does not disable plugins) if you have not already done so. Some plugins may not show up in Firefox's list, you may need to look at the OS program lists.
    I note you mention banking, a particular utility ''IDvault'' (I think Comcast supply it) has been causing crashes. Are you using IDvault ? <br/> (IDvault should be fixed soon bug684748; version 1.0.627 may have been fixed, but standalone version 5.9.627 has not yet been fixed )

  • Copying iTunes Library from one user account to another on the same MacBook

    I recently purchased a new Macbook running 10.4.8 and transferred my iTunes library from my G5 via firewire.
    The problem is that I started using one user account and
    when the library transferred over it went into another
    user account. Is there a way that i can take the library
    and put it under the user account that i had established
    prior to the transfer or do i have to import each MP3
    (via the HD) separately?

    Does this article contain anything useful?

  • How do I transfer files and documents from one user account to another?

    How do I transfer documents and files from one user account to another?

    You haven't understood me. Follow these steps:
    1. Log in the user where are the files you want to transfer, and open a Finder window.
    2. In Finder, select Go menu (on the menu bar) > Go to Folder, and type /Users/Shared. Now you're on Shared folder, so leave that window.
    3. Open a new Finder window without closing the old one, go to the folder with the files you want to transfer, and copy them to Shared folder.
    4. After copying the files to Shared folder, go to  > Log Out, and log in the other user.
    5. Repeat the step 2, and you will get access to the transferred files. Now, you can open them directly from this folder, or you can copy them to a folder on your user folder
