Safari extensions not in color

My Safari browser, toolbar and all icons are grey. Does anyone know if you can install the Safari Extensions someway in which they appear in color ? ie; The Weather Channel, Pinterest, Evernote, etc.
I've seen other browsers/toolbars where the icons were in color, making it easier to find each of the icons when needed.
Thanks in advance for any useful advice and/or solutions.
MacBook Pro 17", using OS X 10.9.4 and Safari Version 7.0.5

If you want to change the color, use Download Firefox
Always good to have a backup browser installed in case you have problems with Safari and can't connect to the internt for help.

Safari extensions not working

My Safari extensions have stopped working. I am running Safari 7.0.3 on OXS 10.9.2. One day I went on to the internet and my extensions still appear, but are not functioning (my antivirus toolbar is unusable as only half of it is appearing, and my add blocker appears but doesn't actually block apps). I'm not quite sure if this is an issue with my extensions, or Safari, so I thought I would find out if anyone else is having this issue.

May be there is an adware installed.

SAFARI EXTENSIONS NOT WORKING PROPERLY

I have two extensions: Trusteer and Lastpass which no longer appear to load automaically when Safari is launched. By choosing "Safari extensions ..." they load but do not always behave as they should [incorrectly formatted loging dropdown for Lastpass, failure to respons in the case of Trusteer when loading a protected website]

Visited links on safari do not change color

Hi, I use safari Version 5.1.10 (6534.59.10) and when i browse the search results on google, the color of visited links does not change (it should turn form blue to purple). This does not happen when i use other browsers. I have already tried to reset and empty cache.. ANy suggestions?? this is very annoying

I don't know if they're not changing color for you, but for me the purple (visited link) looks too similar to the link (blue) for my bad corneas to distinguish unless I squint.
I found the link below helped, and it works!
How do I change color of links visited?

New york times updates - safari extension - not refreshing

New York Times Updates Safari Extension seems to have stopped updating it's info. I uninstalled it and then reinstalled it, but it only added a couple of items from several days ago. Is this feed no longer viable? The version on the Safari extensions web site is 0.1, the same as always.

Try emptying the Safari cache more often.
You can do this from the Safari menu bar, click Safari / Empty Cache or Command + Option + E on your keyboard.
If emptying the cache didn't make a difference, go to the Safari menu bar click Safari > Reset Safari.
Select the top 5 boxes, click Reset.
Restart your computer.

Safari extension not allowing me to manually update, after telling me update is available.

hi , im running safari 6.0 & in my "Safari extensions prefrence window", there is an update available for one of my extensions.
i've chosen to have "Install updates Automatically" un-checked, for i wish to do this manually.
However when i click on "Install All Updates" nothing happens. Same with clicking on the "Install" tab that is next to the
extension icon in the update window . Finally when try checking "Install Update Automatically" that seems to start the updating process (& completes) but nothing is installed. Anybody have the same problem?
New @ this, hope i'm being clear... & thanks in advance!

IMO, The last part of your post is very confusing due to a lack of properly placed punctuation. If I am understanding it correctly, yes you have to let the backup finish downloading everything g before you can update the device.

Images in non-Safari browsers not full color

I find that on some web sites, Facebook in particular, the JPEG images are washed-out. In Safari all images display correctly. In Google Chrome, Firefox, and Opera they are washed-out. If I right-click the image and save it, it will display correctly in Preview. I think this behavior began after an OS X update months ago. I took some screen captures today to illustrate the problem. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Today, 2014-10-09, I see all the browsers display images correctly. How odd. I don't see any obvious updates to system software. Safari last updated to v7.1 on September 20, before my post. In any case, this problem is (magically) solved.

P.S. I wonder where my screen captures went. The did include a picture of Jack Ma from a news site. Kind of hard to illustrate the problem if they are auto-removed somehow.

Safari Extensions not loading initially

Ciao,
I use Alfred to launch Safari 5.0.4, and have extensions enabled. However, when Safari opens initially none of the extensions work. A workaround I have found is that if I select History > Reopen All Windows from Last Session, a new Safari window opens, my tabs are created, and then in that window all the extensions work perfectly. Is there any way to have the extensions work from the start of my original session? What exactly is getting triggered in Safari when I reopen the saved windows? Perhaps I can replicate this in a script and assign a shortcut to it and then just use a Quicksilver Trigger to launch Safari each time.
Thanks in advance,
James

Try deleting the Alfred app by dragging it to the Trash. Restart your Mac, try Safari. You can always re download the app following the instructions here.
Sometimes reinstalling an app can make a difference.
You could also try troubleshooting the Safari .plist file (preferences)
Quit Safari. Go to ~/Library/Preferences. Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file to the Desktop. Relaunch Safari. See if that makes a difference. Alfred may have caused an incompatibility issue with Safari preferences.

My Safari is not working right. It often stalls and I get the "colored spinning wheel of Death". I send reports to Apple, but I never get any response or helpful info. What do I do to get Safari working correctly on my MacBook laptop?

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 errant extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.

I downloaded from Safari Extension Gallery "Awesome Screenshot" then remove it. No my Internet is not working, my Safari simply hangs

I downloaded from Safari Extension Gallery "awesome Screenshot" couple of days ago and then decided to remove it from the system . Since then the awesome icon does not appear But my Safari is suffering as it is not loading the pages.Please help

Try removing any other extensions and plugins and if that works introduce them one at a time, you may find it is one of those causing the problem.
If that does not work create a new post, this one being closed will gather less interest and someone who as an answer could miss it.

Can not turn on Safari Extensions in Preferences, switch just doesn't respond. How can I do it?

Can not turn on Safari Extensions in Preferences, switch just doesn't respond. How can I do it?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step 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, 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.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

SAFARI EXTENSIONS dus not work.

I have installed a vieuw safari exstensions but if i want to delete them then i have to go Safari -> preferences -> exstensions. But everything in preferences works accept the extensions menu. What can i do now?. Please help me.
Last but not least iam dutch so my English is not verry good.

Uninstall SIMBL as follows.
Select Go ▹ Go to Folder… from the Finder menu bar, then enter the following text in the box that opens:
/Library
A folder will open. From that folder, delete the items listed below (some may be absent.) You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
Application Support/SIMBL
InputManagers/SIMBL.bundle
LaunchAgents/net.culater.SIMBL.Agent.plist
ScriptingAdditions/SIMBL.osax
Log out and log back in.
Make sure you never reinstall SIMBL. It’s likely to come bundled with another third-party system modfication that depends on it. If you want trouble-free computing, avoid software that makes miraculous changes to other software, especially built-in applications. The only real exception to that rule is Safari extensions, which are mostly safe, and are easy to get rid of when they don’t work. SIMBL and its dependents are not Safari extensions.

Safari will not open despite restart and reinstallation of OS.

When I open safari, I cant access any menus (I just see the color wheel when I hover over any menus). On activity monitor, Safari uses increasingly larger amounts of memory. I have to force quit to get out of the application. Ive restarted numerous times and reinstalled OS X. Any thoughts?

Back up all data before proceeding.
Quit Safari if it’s running. Then select
           ▹ Force Quit…
from the menu bar. A small window will open with a list of running applications. Safari may appear in that list, even though you quit it. If so, select it and press return. Close the window.
Step 1
If Adobe Flash Player is installed, select
           ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced ▹ Delete All...
In the sheet that opens, check the box marked
          Delete All Site Data and Settings
then click Delete Data. Close the preference pane.
Hold down the option key and select
          Go ▹ Library
from the Finder menu bar. Delete the following items from the Library folder (some may not exist):
          Caches/com.apple.Safari
          Caches/com.apple.Safari.SearchHelper
          Caches/com.apple.SafariServices
          Caches/com.apple.WebKit.PluginProcess
          Caches/com.apple.WebProcess
          Caches/Metadata/Safari
          Preferences/com.apple.WebKit.PluginHost.plist
          Preferences/com.apple.WebKit.PluginProcess.plist
          Saved Application State/com.apple.Safari.savedState
Leave the Library folder open. Try Safari again. If the problem is solved, stop here. Close the Library folder. If you still have a problem, continue.
Step 2
Move the following items from the open Library folder to the Desktop (again, some may not exist):
          Cookies/Cookies.binarycookies
          Internet Plug-Ins
          Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.Safari.*.plist
          Preferences/com.apple.Safari.Extensions.plist
          Preferences/com.apple.Safari.LSSharedFileList.plist
          Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
          Preferences/com.apple.WebFoundation.plist
          PubSub/Database
          Safari
          SyncedPreferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
Here, "*" stands for a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes.
Note 1: You are not moving the Safari application. You’re moving a folder named “Safari.”
Note 2: This step will remove your Safari extensions, if any, and their settings. If you choose to reinstall them, do so one at a time, testing each time to make sure you haven’t restored the problem.
Try again. Your settings and bookmarks will be lost. The default set of bookmarks will be restored. Delete them all.
If Safari is now working normally (apart from the lost settings), look inside the “Safari” folder on the Desktop for a file named “Bookmarks.plist”. Select
          File ▹ Import Bookmarks...
from the Safari menu bar. Import from that file. Recreate the rest of your Safari settings. You can then delete the items you moved to the Desktop.
If the issue is still not resolved, quit Safari again and put all the items you moved to the Desktop back where they were, overwriting the newer ones that may have been created in their place. You don’t need to replace the files you deleted in Step 1. Stop here and post again.
If you don’t like the results of the last step, you can undo it completely by quitting Safari and restoring the items you moved or deleted in that step from your backup, overwriting any that were created in their place.

Visited Sites do not Change Color

Since the recent Safari upgrade, the sites I have visited do not change color. For example, if I do a Google search, click the first link and then either use the back button or the refresh button in the Google search field, the site I just visited is not displayed in a different color. This is happening on other sites as well but not all of them. Project Gutenberg works as I expected.
Any suggestions on how to fix this? It makes searching more difficult since I now mentally have to keep track of which sites I've visited. I realize this problem has cropped up before, but the answers are from several years (and versions) ago.
Thank you in advance for any help you can give me,
Frank

You can use code in userContent.css or use the Stylish extension to override the page colors.
I use code like this:
<pre><nowiki>a:visited {color:#e08!important;background-color:#eee}
a:visited * {color:#e08!important;outline:1px dotted red!important;outline-offset:-1px}
a:visited img {background-color:transparent}
</nowiki></pre>

The customization files userChrome.css (user interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the <b>chrome</b> folder in the Firefox profile folder.
