Safari Blues!!!

HELP!!! My friend's eMac has some trouble with safari. Once safari is open, he can't close a safari window with the red X in the top left corner. He has to quit safari. Any ideas?

Hello MC:
Try trashing the Safari preference file (com.apple.safari.plist) and restart. Then reenter personal safari preferences.

Help! New to Mac! Pictures will not load on Safari (blue question marks)

Sometimes when I surf the web (especially sites like Facebook.com), pictures will not load. They turn into little blue check marks. Eventually, none of the pictures on the webpage will load. I have to shut down Safari, reboot my computer, and then pictures load again for a little while. Any advice? Please help!

... you may have something slowing your connection if you are wireless...I get this from time to time and believe that it is generally a connection speed issue related to interference or distance from my airport. The signal is usually great, but drops off from time to time.

Safari Blue Progress Bar and Yahoo Webmail

I have noticed that using Safari with Yahoo Webmail yields the odd behavior that when you attach a file from your computer, the blue progress bar up in the middle of the safari window freezes at some point. Everything works, but until you reset safari, the blue bar stays frozen.

Safari Blue Question Mark on Pictures

Every time that try to view something on Craigslist, I receive the blue question mark box instead of a photo. How can I change this so that I can view the photo instead? I am having this issue with other web sites too.
Thanks and have a wonderful day!

Safari 4.0.3 Totally Broken With Sno Leo or I Can't Reinstall Safari Blues

Sno Leo 10.6.1 has busted Safari 4.0.3 and it cannot be reinstalled with Sno Leo running. What the h'ay?
It's all because Mercury is in retrograde and it won't let up until October.
Sometimes you just gotta ask yourself if it's all worth the trouble.
Bad Sno Leo. Bad.

It has been done...... twice.
I like to do the easy stuff first, before I start whining.
I've troubleshot Mac's and the Mac OS since '84. So I know sometimes you have to get Apple's attention. There is a problem with Snow Leopard that needs to be addressed.
Bang the drum slowly and be careful of what you don't know.
Cheers.

Spry Accordions, Tabbed Panels, and Collapsible Panels: changing colors

I wanted to alert everyone to a great new Community article published by our very own David Powers. The article details the various best practices and methods for changing the colors of Accordion, Tabbed Panels, and Collapsible Panels widgets, including tab backgrounds, borders, and so on.
Here's the article:
http://kb2.adobe.com/community/publishing/504/cpsid_50437.html
Customization questions are pretty frequent in both the Spry and Dreamweaver forums. This new styling guide is sure to answer lots of peoples' questions.
Furthermore, the appearance of such an article is a great example of how Community content can interact and live symbiotically with Adobe Help. We've linked directly to David's piece from our own customization pages for the Spry Accordion, Tabbed Panels, and Collapsible Panels widgets:
Customize the Accordion widget
Customize the Tabbed Panels widget
Customize the Collapsible Panels widget
Thanks a lot to David for hammering out this article.
If you're interested in publishing Community articles of your own, you can download the Community Publishing AIR application and get right to work!

The borders you see, are called outline, its a accesiblity feature of the browsers,
Actually called 'focus' lines :-)
Here's an article about the Bluefocus lines seen in Safari.
http://www.brunobergher.com/blog/2009/01/19/safaris-blue-focus-lines/
Without creating a Spry widget myself right now to test, but I'm sure thata there is a 'focus' rule in the css...
trying the
{outline:none;}
on that rule.

Mid 2010 MacBook Pro: Will randomly blue-screen and Safari repeatedly crashes.

I bought my MacBook Pro in June/July of last year, and it has worked perfectly fine up to this point. However, for the past 2 months or so, my computer will randomly go to a blue screen and log me out. Also, Safari will crash several times (it had never crashed on me until the blue-screen problem started. Both of these issues surfaced at the same time). For the most part, the blue-screening problem only happens when I'm using the internet, but sometimes it will happen when I am offline as well. This is an infrequent/inconsistent problem, though. It will blue-screen and Safari will crash one week, but then it will be perfectly fine for the next three or four weeks. What's wrong/how do I fix it?

Hi JRC8.8,
It sounds like you have been on the right track in trying to troubleshoot this issue. You may want to see if your MacBook Pro will boot directly to the Apple Hardware Test, as outlined in the following article:

Safari is not working on the Mac. Internet is fine, mail, App Store etc all working and connecting to Internet fine. Done the latest software update, still not working. When selecting a web address from bookmarks or typing in search bar, partial blue bar.

Safari is not working on the Mac. Internet is fine. mail, App Store etc all working and connecting to Internet fine. Done the latest software update, still not working. When selecting a web address from bookmarks or typing in search bar, partial blue bar only and coloured wheel appears.

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.
If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. That will revert its settings to the defaults.
If extensions aren't causing the problem, see below.
Safari 5.0.1 or later: Slow or partial webpage loading, or webpage cannot be found

Not a question. A comment actually. Regarding the persistent blue Autofill popup in Safari. My wife first shut down the Mac then unplugged it for a few minutes. On restart, the box was gone.

POP-UP AD ISSUES whenever I access a new Safari page/tab. The usual blue links have turned green with a double underline. Safari is now annoying the S**T out of me, please help.

Was trying to download a torrent app and somehow accidentally installed an app that allows pop up windows to appear whenever I open a new window or tab in Safari. The usual blue links have all turned green with a double underline and whenever I hover nearby them, ads relevant to the words of the link pop up. Whenever I look at online stores like Mr. Porter, there are pop up icons saying "MORE" that link to supposedly similar products. Can anyone help me remove this problem? I've updated to the latest Mavericks, hence Safari was updated, I've deleted the app that I thought was the issue, I've disabled cookies and pop ups and I've also increased my firewall security, but to no avail. With my minimal knowledge of anything other than the day to day running of my laptop, I'm not really sure what's going on here....

See the section : How to open an app from a unidentified developer and exempt it from Gatekeeper at
OS X: About Gatekeeper
You just Ctrl-click it & choose 'Open' assuming that you do wish to trust it.

Love Safari's new look, but on my 17-inch MacBook Pro the font on most pages is partly or all in an insipid light blue. I've tried changing all text to black on white to help my 83-year-old eyes, but no luck so far. Any tips?

This is my first time using this site, but it's helpful so far. Not sure if I need to retype the wording in the Discussion box above, but will do so just in case.

The simplest thing to try is a reset.
With Safari running, click on Safari in the menu bar and select Reset Safari ....
If that does not work, go to Safari / Preferences / Advanced.
The selections I have are shown here:

Whenever I sign into Safari the web page will show black, blue, and white static. What is this? They said it is not a virus, but I am concerned there is something going on with my computer! Any recommendations on how to fix this?

If you cannot use COMMAND+R to boot into the recoveyr partition, see if a SMC and PRAM reset followed by Safe Boot helps:

I hope I helped,
