Safari 6.1 badly behaved on PayPal site

I thought I was just updating Java, but Safari 6.1 aooeared after the update.
When I went to my PayPal account, if I click on an item that shows a plus sign to the left,
this action should expand the item and provide further details.
However, with Safari 6.1, this function is destroyed.
Instead of expanded details, I get a new page that says:
"You have requested an outdated version of PayPal. This error often results from the use of bookmarks."
In order to see the required details I now have to resort to using FireFox - not a good solution.
I tried to revert to Safari 6.0.5 but Time MAchine wouldn't allow me to do that.
How do we fix this? Anybody know please?

I believe this is a problem with Paypal, independent of Safari 6.1, as I was having this same problem with various other Paypal functions last night on Safari 6.0.5.
I updated to 6.1 this morning, and it was indeed a mistake to do so. The poor font rendering alone takes us back to problems from several versions ago. What a peice of junk.

    1. From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
    2. Select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data...
    and confirm. Test.
    3. If the above steps don't resolve the problem, please describe it in more detail.

  • Prevent Safari 5.1 from adding to Top Sites

    Has anyone figured out a way to prevent Safari 5.1 from adding to Top Sites every time one looks at a webpage?  I have used Macs for 20 years and love them, EXCEPT that Apple doesn't give much control to the user.

    If, for some reason, you want to completely disable the Top Sites feature, use the following Terminal command copy and paste:
    defaults write com.apple.Safari DebugSafari5IncludeTopSites -bool FALSE
    Repeating with TRUE at the end will enable Top Sites again.
    I have not tested this,  but you can try it,  and report back on your success or failure. 
    Clear cache, clear history, reset and relaunch Safari.
    Of course there all alternatives if this command does not work.  See this thread:

  • Ebay will not load on safari, firefox or camino, but all other sites load without any problem. Can anyone help?

    ebay will not load on safari, firefox or camino, but all other sites load without any problems. Why is this? Can anyone help?

    It should be: Click on Home Folder (the House) and to the right Library is shown, click on the arrow on the Library folder to reveal its contents and then click on Cookies to reveal its contents and then move the Cookies.plist to the Trash as Carolyn suggests.
    Then try eBay again.

  • Gmail not loading after latest Safari update - the one with the Top Sites

    After the latest Safari update - the one including the Top Sites feature - I can no longer open any messages in on gmail - it tells me that some of the features of gmail cannot be loaded due to problems with my connections. I can use other sites without any trouble, so I think that my connection is good. Also, when I try to use the older version of gmail, this doesn't work either. Has anyone else experienced a similar problem? Please help - this is very frustrating... Thanks in advance to everyone who will reply and offer an explanation and a possible solution.

    Hi
    I have a GoogleUpdateSofware folder which contains GoogleUpdateSoftware bundle and a folder named Ticket Store. Can this be causing the problem?
    Possible. One way to test is to go to the Finder. There, drag the Google folder to the desktop, then restart Safari. If that doesn't resolve the problem, return that folder to its original location. Then, try Safari from another User Account.
    If necessary, you can create a User Account in System Preferences>Accounts. Log on to the other account and open Safari. If gmail works there, then the problem is specific to your regular user account. In that case, log-in to your regular user account. There, open Safari. Safari Menu>Reset Safari. Select "empty cache", and "clear history", then select "reset". Restart Safari and try gmail.
    If it doesn't work in the other user account, then the problem is system-wide. If that's the case I'll post suggestions after you let me know what you discovered.

  • Safari Preferences resets my homepage to "Top Sites"

    Safari Preferences resets my homepage to "Top Sites" every time I turn on my computer.  I would like to set my Homepage to my Yahoo mail page just once and have it stay at that setting. I have an OX S 10.9.5. I reset my preferences every time I turn on my computer but my choices aren't saved when I shut down my computer.

    You installed "SearchMe" or some other malicious Safari extension.
    From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Remove all extensions with the word "Spigot" in the description. If in doubt, remove all extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those.

  • Safari behaving differently with site on .mac/external server

    Hello. I've started creating a little webpage of mine and I've noticed that when uploaded to .mac the top bar (for selecting pages within the site) works correctly, but when the site is uploaded to an external server the top bar goes bust. It is so under Safari, not so under Firefox, which seems to "decode" everything correctly. Here are both pages (identical uploads):
    .mac: http://web.mac.com/milosz.sosnowski/Site/Start.html
    external: http://www.staff.amu.edu.pl/~miloszso/Site/Start.html
    Thank you for your help

    There are worser topics sometimes
    I just wanted to say that...
    If a change doesn't display to you in the browser after you published and uploaded it mostly is because the old version of the page is cached (memorized) by your browser. Thus simply emptying the cache of the browser (Open Safari, choose Safari from the menu and go to Empty Cache) and reloading the page should display the changes.

  • Safari does not display text on some sites.

    I am running OSX 10.10.2 and Safari 8.03
    Some sites I visit do not display text at all.
    For example: This site (http://neflin.org/) looks fine in Chrome, Firefox, whatever. But in Safari, it has no text at all. See below.
    Mail is having difficult with some text in html email too.
    I have rebooted, reset the PRAM, deleted preferences and turned off extensions. I checked the Guest account and created a new account and in all cases the problem persists.
    I have validated fonts in Font Book, restored standard fonts and looked for duplicates. Nothing.
    Flash and Java are up to date.
    Any thoughts?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of this test is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account. Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. 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 documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; 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 in OS X 10.7 or later, 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.

  • Why does Safari constantly disconnecting me from logged in sites?

    I'll have Safari open. I'll log into Yahoo, YouTube, Facebook, etc. and every now and again Safari has this moment where it's not reloading the page quickly. It'll behave like it's freezing up. Then the tabs I have opened with "Logged In" sites will refresh with the "Log In" page open again. I have to log in again. This happens if I walk away for awhile or if I'm busy working on the computer at the time. While using Safari or not actively using it. It's annoying to have to keep logging in. Especially if I have multiple sites that require logging in. What's Safari doing? Is this just another annoying glich in yet another software program?

    Many sites have an automatic logout after a certain amount of time. Ask the sites in question if that is the case for them. If you clear your web browser's cookies, many sites keep login information in a cookie so that can also cause you to be asked for your credentials again.
    Regards.
