Safari (7.0.6) on my iMac running Mavericks (10.9.4) is not saving web pages (web archives)

Hi. Not familiar with forums but hope to get some help.
Safari (7.0.6) on my iMac running Mavericks (10.9.4) is not saving web pages (web archives).
I've used the following path:
File > Save As >then Format > Web Archive
It saves a file but when I click on its icon it opens up to the 'Top Sites' page (as when you click on the + for a new tab) not a saved web archive of the web page I was on.
I have no such problem with Safari on my MacBook Pro running Lion.
The iMac hardware details are: 2.7 Gz Intel Core i5 with 8 gb of RAM . The software update tells me I'm up to date.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Errol.

It could be malware that's causing the archive / Top Sites problem.
Download and run the adware removal tool here > The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Guide
Easy, safe, and only takes a minute or two.
If no malware is found ...
From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
Click: Remove All Website Data
Then delete the cache.
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, troubleshoot Safari extensions.
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

My older iMac running Mavericks 10.9.4 shuts down when it connects to the internet. Resetting the SMC doesn't help. What can I do?

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can read it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start Time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.

Go to Mail Preferences>Accounts, click the '+' button below the list of accounts and insert the settings, username and password as instructed. Some account types can be set up automatically as soon as Mail knows the emails address (because the server settings are built in), in other cases you will have to get them from your ISP.

Can't Print to Canon ImagePROGRAF 600 with IMAC running Mavericks

I have a new IMAC running Mavericks connected to a networked Canon Plotter. I can plot to it using my old MacBook Pro running snow leopard with the 2009 Driver Ver. 2.17. And my office mate can print to it using a 2009 IMAC running mavericks with the 2012 Driver and ver. 3.10. When I go to print, in the page set-up of the print window I can only select MANUAL for the paper feed, I can't change to cassette or Roll, and then an alert pops up saying: "Manual is not available..."
If I ignore that and continue trying to print I get a printer error message say: "Open error: Try turning the printer off and back on again..." This doesn't work either.
I've tried going backwards in software generations but that only creates more problems. The Mountain lion version allowed me select MAUAL or CASSETTE in the page set up window but then the ImagePROGRAF Preview said "That function is not support by this printer." Has any one experienced this and solved it? Thanks.

I think this could be related to a communication problem between the Mac and iPF. I don't have an iPF600 but do have an iPF8400 and iPF9400S. I downloaded the v3.10 driver for 10.8 and installed it on 10.9.5. I then created a dummy IP address and selected the iPF600 driver. When I first tried to print I got the following pop-up.
As this IP address was not connected to any printer I cancelled this window and then found the same symptom as you i.e. Only having Manual and selecting it resulted in an error window appearing. I also found that when I changed to the Main menu, the Media Type drop menu was stuck at Plain Paper.
I then created another printer to the iPF8400 but using the iPF600 driver. When I selected to print, I got the pop-up again. This time I entered my password and then found that the drop menus worked in Page Setup and Main.
So when you added the iPF600 to Printers & Scanners, did you get the pop-up above?
Also, if you select the Main menu, is the Get Information button available?

Installing Windows 7 on a late 2009 iMac running Mavericks

I'm running a perfectly good late-2009 iMac running Mavericks and had a bootcamp partition that worked until I needed to replace my hard drive.
Now I want to install Windows 7 (via bootcamp) for gaming. Bootcamp 5 won't download the software or allow a USB/ISO Windows 7 load due to my model/ROM version, which is:
Model Name:               iMac
Model Identifier:          iMac10,1
Processor Name:          Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed:          3.33 GHz
Number of Processors:          1
Total Number of Cores:         2
L2 Cache:                      6 MB
Memory:                       8 GB
Bus Speed:                    1.33 GHz
Boot ROM Version:        IM101.00CC.B00
I've read quite a few threads about the apple software download server issues, creating an ISO, adjusting the BootCamp package, using virtualbox, etc. to bypass this. But can't find anything addressing my specific situation where I'm running mavericks AND have an older ROM version that won't allow USB install for some stupid reason.
I've made an ISO boot disk (and USB), tried adjusting my BootCamp package strings, and have virtualbox, winclone, Daemon tools, etc. but can't get to the point where I can upload the bootcamp software and Win7. Has anyone solved this problem?

No one has done this before?

Audio problem on iMac running Mavericks using FW

I have a brand new iMac running Mavericks. I have a 3Tb hybrid drive which I wonder whether this has something to do with my problem.
I am trying to use my Yamaha Motif XS rack with firewire to route audio. I bought a Thunderbolt to FW connector and a 800 to 400 lead.
I run iTunes and everything works fine for about 60 seconds and then the audio hiccups and stops. If I switch back to built in audio and then back to FW then I’m fine for another 60/70 seconds.
Can anyone advise?
thanks :-)

You should be able to download and install the updates from here:
Adobe - Photoshop Elements : For Macintosh
In older versions of photoshop elements, the updater never worked, even when the applications were brand new.
I think the problem is that the Adobe Application Manager needs to be updated to a newer version, but since there will be no more updates for pse 9, it may just be better to install the two updates
from the link above and leave well enough alone.
Anyway here's a link to the newest Adobe Application Manager

Uninstall windows XP from iMac running Mavericks

I wish to uninstall windows XP service pack 3 from my iMac running Mavericks I have removed all I can see but it still appears to be in the back ground any help please

I am not using Boot Camp I am using Parallels Desktop 9 for Mac
The Virtual Machine you created (windows XP service pack 3) is located in your /Documents/Parallels folder or in /Users/Shared/Parallels folder. If all you want to do is delete it, you can go to that folder and drag the VM file to the trash. I use Fusion rather than Parallels and in Fusion, you can right click on the virtual machine name and one of the choices is to delete it. I'd imagine Parallels has something similar.
BTW, although Microsoft is no longer supporting XP with security updates, Microsoft Security Essentials can still be forced to download and install the latest virus definitions. You just have to tell Security Essentials to update itself.

Mid-2007 iMac Running Mavericks Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit Install

How do I go about installing a Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit (OEM) partition on a mid-2007 iMac running Mavericks?
Apple says that 64-bit Windows 7 isn't supported by my model iMac, but I know for a fact that other people have gotten it to work. I'm just a little unclear on how exactly to do it. In any case, I made the mistake of buying two copies of Windows 7 64-bit under the assumption that they would install just fine on my iMac and MacBook Pro (MacBook Pro is from 2007 as well), so I need to get this working.
What version of Boot Camp should I use? What version support drivers should I download? Apple says that Boot Camp 5.1, which is what I have, is incompatible with my iMac, and it says the same thing for every driver download that supports 64-bit versions of Windows 7, but would it be correct to say that this "incompatibility" is only the case if I don't first modify my Windows 7 installation disc according to the instructions in the attached link?
There is a Windows XP partition on my MacBook Pro, so I figure I can get on it to modify the installation disc before attempting a 64-bit Windows 7 install on the iMac.

Ok, sounds like the safe mode boot worked... You probably don't want to always be in safe mode though (some reduced functionality) so does it do a normal boot now? If not, you should then reboot into safe mode and run Disk Utility. Then select Macintosh HD on the left hand side, and click the Verify Disk button. If needed, it will ask you to Repair Disk. If there are errors found, Repair Disk again until there are none. Then try another normal boot and reply with result, wether good or bad.

I have an iMac running Mavericks 10.9.4 I also have about 30 Kodack photo CDs that I wish to convert from PCD to Jpeg but Mavericks will not see the files, they are grey. Is there any way to convert them or must I do it on another machine?
Kaibil

iPhoto used to support the PCD format up to a few years ago. It's extremely frustrating that Apple decided to no longer support this format and now I'm directed to pay nearly $40 for an app that will (GraphicConverter 9). Did Lemke Software make a deal with Apple so we'd have to pay a premium for a very overpriced converter? And, how are decisions like this supposed to encourage the use of iPhoto?
Apple users already pay a premium to use a Mac. Obstacles like these eventually destroy loyalty to the Apple brand. Just ask Microsoft how their back room deals that exploited their customer base worked out for them.

My iMac running 10.10 crashed and will not restart

My 27 iMac running 10.10 crashed and will not restart. It bongs and shows the apple. That is all. Is there a way to "safe" start it. I have backups

Turn off computer then back on hold down X key force OS X startup,or hold down shift key and computer will start in safe mode.
