Safari dashboard web clips not working

When I attempt to make a web clip (on ANY site or page), nothing happens. Literally nothing. Dashboard does not open, nothing is created and nothing is added to the Dashboard items.
This has been the case with the last couple versions of Safari. I don't even know were to begin trouble shooting this issue. I did try tossing the Safari and Dashboard pref files. No change. That's all I can think of doing... Is there anything else I can try?
Thanks!

HI,
Reset Safari. From the Menu Bar, click Safari/Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset. Restart Safari and see if that helps.
If that doesn't help... Check Web Clip widgets
If you made Web Clip widgets, the webpage that it is the source of a clipping might be causing Safari to unexpectedly quit or Dashboard to no function as it should. Go into Dashboard and remove any web clip widgets. Then, if you can access the original website, re-create the widgets and see if the issue persists.

  • Safari Dashboard Web Clip https

    I'm hoping someone knows how to make an secure web site with a port (https://x.x.x.x:4444) for instance a web clip for the dashboard. I can easily create it but it of course doesn't work. It says it can't connect to the site. Obviously it requires a user name and password. I had already logged in and was viewing what I need when I created the clip. Is there a way to adjust the address that the clip uses and how does a web clip handle usernames and passwords? Is that something you have to pass in the URL?
    Thanks,

    I would like to do this as well.
    I monitor an internal web site that displays network traffic and it would be very convenient to do this as a web clip on the desktop.
    Can someone tell us where the details for the Dashboard web clip are kept? Perhaps there are some additional properties that can be added to it from the back end that would get it to work. (A port number, 'https', credentials, etc.) It would almost be silly if it couldn't be done!

  • Download web clips not working since upgrade.

    Before upgrading to 10.6.8 I could download a YouTube clip by opening the Activity window, finding the movie file in the list and double clicking on it. Now the movie just opens up in another window but doesn'

    I have the same issue. I have a Mac Pro w/ 2x2.8GHz Quad-Core Xeon 8GB Ram. So I don't think its a resource issue. I have a bunch of web clips on my dashboard. When I open the dashboard random ones will show only black. If I close and reopen those that were black might load and others will be all black. The issue didn't arise until I upgraded from Safari 3 to Safari 4. FYI- I tried recreating all of the webclips with Safari 4 just incase the issue was that they were originally created with Safari 3, but I still have the same problem. The clips are from all sorts of sites with a wide range of complexity. They all are affected at one point or another.
    Any help would be appreciated, this is pretty annoying and begins to make me feel like I'm back on a PC.

  • Safari email web page not working

    I'm trying to use Safari to create an HTML email. I've made a page which is on my Me server but when I use Safari to email it it doesn't work. The page displays perfectly in my send window in Mail but the subsequent email arrives empty. What am I doing wrong?
    My page is here: http://web.me.com/hayesdavies/jane/febpage.html
    Thank you

    Yes. But both are in Mail so it went from one to the other in Mail and the second one gets nothing. It works in Entourage but I get a "this message is in MIME format, since your mail reader does not understand this format" etc error which is no good either.

  • Some web sites not working in FF but they are OK in Safari.

    A couple of times lately I have had web sites not work correctly with Firefox. I need to switch to Safari to complete the tasks I needed to do. My FF is running on Mountain Lion and is up to date.
    Thanks,
    MJT

    Hello michaeljt, the sites you have problem, is it with a lot of flash content ?
    Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
    Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
    To clear cache and cookies do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
    #Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
    #Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
    #From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
    #Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
    Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.
    Please reload the webpage while bypassing the cache using '''one''' of the following steps:
    *Hold down the ''Shift'' key and click the ''Reload'' button with the left mouse key.
    OR
    *Press ''Ctrl'' + ''F5'' or ''Ctrl'' + ''Shift'' + ''R'' (Windows and Linux)
    *Press ''Command'' + ''Shift'' + ''R'' (Mac)
    See if this helps solve the issues you had and please report back to us!
    thank you

  • Dashboard Web Clip Problems

    I have no problem creating web clips for dashboard and following their creation they appear in Dashboard and look fine.
    The problem is that if I restart the computer or turn it off or log off and switch users, then when I return half or more of my dashboard web clips do not appear and give me this message ‘Web Clip was made using Safari’s ‘Open in Dashboard Feature’, open Safari”.
    Why is this happening and how can I fix it besides recreating the dashboard web clip?

    Anyone help us out here?
    I haven't had a clip work yet, although I've only tried 5 or so. It is not a great incentive to try more when none of them work. ::grin::
    I get the "Web clip was made...." message on all my clips.
    Thanks. Joel.

  • Dashboard Web Clip Widgets - "Time for an Update"

    I have an issue with a dashboard widget that I created from the Safari button "Open in Dashboard" to create.
    I used the widget on the following page:
    http://www.calottery.com/win/winning-numbers
    The problem is, the widget displays a giant overlay:
    Needless to say, it makes this particular web clipping completely unusable...

    I would like to do this as well.

  • Click on obiee dashboard tabs is not working

    Hi,
    One remote user using cisco vpn to access OBIEE dashboards. everything is all right but when he click on dashboard tabs is not working. I tried with firefox 3.6.0 and IE 8 both have same problem. we dont have this problem within the network. I dont think it's a firewall issue because everything else is working fine. we dont have any custom java script in obiee dashboards. Is it a browser problem? does any one else got this problem before?
    Thanks
    Jay.

    Hi Jay
    Yes Its browser issue. Please make sure the patch updates of IE are updated and i do have the same problem with IE 6 when user remotes (or) use citrix
    One more important point is we have made the dashboards available directly instead of residing in group folder. If you have Dashboards under group folder, give access to that Dashboard directly instead of Group folder
    Eg: Groupfolder A contains A1,A2,A3....A10 dashboards. Give acceess to A1,A2 instead of groupfolder A
    Please mark it Helpful or correct if this solved
