Safari browser no longer works on my macbook pro.

I no longer can use safari browser on my macbook pro. It doesn't recognize server xfinity comcast? I have been using firefox. I also re-instaleed it and still won't work.~ thanks, Vic

First try opening "System Preferences" and select "Keyboard" (under the "Hardware" category). Next press the "Restore Defaults" button. Next close all applications relevent to this issue. Now reopen the programs and see if the escape key works. If the problem still remains then try to navigate to the options and preferences of said applications and see if you mistakedly unbound the escape key.

  • Apple 23" HD Cinema Display no longer working with new Macbook Pro

    I bought a 23" used HD Cinema display the other day along with the ADC-DVI and DVI-Mini Display adapters. I had it hooked up and it was working perfectly for 3 days. Today my wife tried to connect her Macbook accidentally via the USB that is part of the ADC-DVI adapter which didn't work (why is that USB there anyway?). Then when she went to connect the external display back to my Macbook Pro it did not wake up after being connected. I have tried resetting the PRAM on the MBP and have disconnected and re-connected all connections but nothing will get the display working with the MBP anymore. When I connect and disconnect the mini-display plug into the MBP the MBP flashes the blue screen as it appears to be reacting, but that's it. I can't detect any display when I go into the display system preferences. Does anyone know how I can get the Apple Cinema display working again? Thanks for any help.

    Upon reflection, I think my issue is different. Probably should not have posted it here. As it turns out sometimes my display works, sometimes it does not. I think the power adapter has gone bad. A common occurrence here in Mexico where the power can fluctuate quite a bit. - Ryan
    There are couple of long threads in the display section about problems with the power supplies on the 23" HD DVI. See this one for instance: https://discussions.apple.com/message/17981683#17981683
    Mine one day just wouldn't turn on -- connected to an old G4 MDD and the Mini -- a bit of fiddling it would occasionally start up, sometimes not. Similar to what you described, the Macs would see it in System Profiler, but it just wouldn't turn on.
    Based on that thread, I figured the problem was mostly likely the power supply. A local authorized repair place didn't have a spare for me to try, but the tech sniffed it and mentioned it the burnt electronics smell. LOL, I sniffed it and sniffed the power supply for my 20" DVI Cinema display -- indeed a weird smell.
    Based on that thread, I decided to bite the bullet and buy a beefier 150" power supply for the 30" Cinema display, which Apple says in compatible with the 23". See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2803
    I hooked it up, crossed my fingers, and it fired up right away. It's been working fine for about 3 months now. Cheaper than buying a new monitor.

  • FaceTime no longer works on my MacBook Pro but still works on my I-Phone

    FaceTime used to work fine on both my MacBook Pro and my I-Phone. Lately, it will not work at all on my Ma
    cBook, but works fine on my I-Phone. What has to be done to get it working on my MacBook?

    The Rh column in FaceTime asks if I want calls to the cell phone or to the e-mail address. I remove the check mark against the cell Number and "go to next"
         It then asks for Apple ID and sign in.
         The FaceTime on the computer starts by saying that it is signing in and then and then quickly reverts to the first screen as above---asking about the cell or e-mail address---and the process starts all over again.
         I never get to proceed past this step.
         I am begining to wonder if an upgrade was added and requires some other step.
    , or removal of the upgrade.
         Thanks for the help.

    hi nbinc,
    thanks so much for replying..
    i tried what you said.
    and I get this reply: can't sign in. wrong password...
    tried getting new password but doesn't work either.
    below the original info.plist in text.
    I had a doubt with one of the string I had to change...
    <string>Skype version 2.8.0.866 (18210), Copyright © 2004-2010 Skype Technologies S.A.</string>
    tried replacing the number only and then the whole string for what you told me:  <string>6.3.0.602</string>

    My Safari is no longer working with many sites.  However Chrome and Firefox work fine.  I would like to re-install Safari in an effort to clear up the problem I can not resolve.

    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.

  • When I click on the 'help' key in the elements 12 program it wants to open it in Firefox2. Firefox doesn't work on my Macbook Pro Air. I use Safari. How do I get it to open?

    When I click on the 'help' key in the elements 12 program it wants to open it in Firefox2. Firefox doesn't work on my Macbook Pro Air. I use Safari. How do I get it to open?

    Hmm, that is very strange. I agree with MichelB that it's probably best just to get the PDF, but you can try going to your username>library>preferences and deleting:
    com.adobe.PhotoshopElements.plist
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 settings
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 paths
    To see the library, click the Go menu in the Finder and hold down the option key and it will appear below the little house for your user account. While you're in there it wouldn't be a bad idea to go to the Saved Application States folder and delete anything pertaining to PSE.
    Repair permissions and see if that does it.

  • Why does the Autofill no longer work on my macbook

    Why is the autofill no longer working on my macbook?

    Have you tried connecting to your computer and sync using iTunes? If it will sync that way, the means the problem is the wireless sync. One step in the troubleshooting process. You also might want to consider posting here.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    ''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]<br><br>
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
    Thank you.

    Yahoo won't let me into my mail. I keep getting the message the Safari Browser is longer supported. Can anyone help? I tried looking for an Update download for Safari but couldn't find one.
    Thanks,
    Elizabeth

    So I'm using Safari 5.1.7 on a PC running Windows 8. Every now and then I get the message from Yahoo! Mail that my browser isn't supported. Specifically the message is:
       "You're almost there, but your web browser doesn't support the newest version of Yahoo! Mail"
    To recover from this condition I find all I need to do is:
    Close all open Safari windows
    Relaunch Safari

  • Facebook and Hotmail will not work on my Macbook pro

    Facebook and Hotmail will not work on my Macbook pro. I have tried safari and firefox. I have unloaded and reloaded an old version of firefox and still no luck. When go to ebay it opens but looks very weird. I am using Mac OS X Version 10.6.6 with a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo. I am so frustrated, I have tried everything I can think of and still no luck.

    Good of you to offer the detail you did (a lot of people don't bother) but it still is not quite enough. Texting that it "looks very weird" just leaves me blank. Most basic remedy for browser issues is to use Safari to google "adobe flash" and download a fresh file & install. Can't think of anything else given what you've posted....
