Safari hasn't worked for two weeks....Could I please get some insight/advice?

For the past two weeks I haven't been able to get Safari to run on my iMAC...it's a 2012 version.  The only thing i've done lately is install a 3TB time machine and I use a 2013 airport express *** a range extender for that.
I am totally confused at why Safari crashes every time that I open it.  Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

These instructions copied from a post by dominic23:
If you don’t have another browser installed,
startup into SafeMode, log into your account, open Safari
and download  AdwareMedic or the removal instructions from Apple.
How to start up into Safe Mode?
Shut down the computer.
Press the power button. Immediately after you hear the startup sound, press and hold the Shift key.
The Shift key should be pressed as soon as possible after startup,but not before the startup sound.
Release the Shift key when you see the Apple logo on the screen. Startup will take longer than usual.
Launch Safari. Proceed with the removal of Adware. Once done restart the computer from  in the menu bar.

  • I have been editing project for two weeks and now I get ghosts of other images fromt eh project coming up in the wrong places even though the thumbnail looks right. Help.

    Help. I have been editing a project for two weeks and now it gets ghosts of ohter images from the project coming up in the wrong places. The thumbnail has the correct image but the image either does not display and its black or an old image or another one shows.

    When I have problems like this I do two things. First I shut down and restart iMovie. Sometimes that rejuggles the date. But I am sure you have been doing that in such a long project.
    The Second thing I do is delete iMovie preferences, which can get corrupted.

  • HT201412 My ipad mini is stock on a message that the device had not been connected to icloud for two weeks. I cannot get rid of teh message. I can't even power off the device.

    My ipad mini is stock on icloud backup and i cannot even power it off. The message says "the ipad hasn't backed up in two weeks. Backup happens when ipad is plugged in". But nothing happpend when I plug it into power or the laptop.

    See if this helps.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • Verizon Coverage Locator hasn't worked for 3+ weeks

    Anyone know what's up with the coverage locator?  If you trying to enter an address, pan, zoom or switch coverage types, absolutely nothing happens.  It's been like this for over three weeks now.
    I travel and work full-time and rely on that map to direct me to where I may have coverage (even if the coverage is greatly exaggerated, at least I know which places to avoid for sure!). I've had friends check as well, so it's not just my browsers.  You would think someone would have noticed this and fixed it by now.

    Thank you. I was just accused of being like bad rep at VZW, so this is nice to see! hahahahaha
    Anyways, the locator used to work with Chrome, so I am not sure what has happened.

  • After formatting iPod to NTFS and restoring back with iTunes, the player works for two-three weeks and crashes afterward. It then requests to restore it through iTunes.

    After reformatting iPod to NTFS and restoring back with iTunes, the player works for two-three weeks and crashes afterward. It then requests to restore it through iTunes. When connected to iTunes, it sees it in the restore mode and also asks to restore the iPod. It happens over and over for the last months. What could be the problem?
    iPod Classic 80Gig.
    Thanks in advance.

    Dear planb77
    Thanks for a reply. iPod does not support ntfs - you're right. that means it will never work on that. While restoring ipod using iTunes, itunes reformats it no matter what filesystem is there. So the issue is not that. ipod is now on fat32 and it works for a certain period of time, but then crashes and asks to restore through itunes. Resetting/restarting does not help.

  • My ipad is jammed.... the screen is about icloud back up. "this ipad hasn't been back up for two weeks.bla2... but the problem is my screen is locked . i couldnt do any thing ! please help me .....

    if you can not unlock your ipad, you need to plug it into itunes and do a restore.
    If it will not ben able to restore you need to put it in dfu mode (holding down power and home for 10 seconds untill the screen goes completly blank) and then itunes will say it is in 'recovery'. Try that

  • IPod Touch sreen stops working after getting wet. After, work again normally for two weeks. Now, sometimes work, sometimes don't. Any clues?

    My iPod took a bit of rain when i'm cooming home. After that, the touch stops responding. I tried restart and everything, but I only get to destroy the iOS. After, I put the iPod under the notebook in order to try to dry him with the heat. The touch work again! I restored the iOS and everything goes fine for two weeks. Yesterday, I plug the iPod for use the iTunes and he wasn't recognized by the iTunes, and the touch stops working again. I restored again the iTunes start to recognize him, but the touch works for a little bit and stop again. I put it under the note and the touch works for time enough for me to turn off the iPod. Anybody has any ideia what is going on? Thanks.
    PS.: Sorry about my terrible english. Is not my mother langage.

    Thanks guys, I shut the thing off and left in a bowl with uncooked rice, in found several tips on the net saying that this might help absorve the wet, also this don't seem capable of creating damage to me. I think I will left the iPod in the bowl for three days before turning it on again, that seems ok?
    7 to 10 days is better, and the failure rate is very high, you may need a new iPod.

    Hi smudden, did the software update on your computer include an update to your browser e.g. IE8 updated to IE9? If so you could try reverting back to the previous browser version to see if that is the issue.
    However be aware that you don't have to be signed in to your ePrintCenter account to send emails to an ePrint printer

  • I have been trying for two weeks to back up iCloud. I keep getting a message failure. Why??

    I have been trying for two weeks to backup iCloud and keep getting a message failure. Why? And how do I fix it?

    I agree with the Thomas, in that I think you have mucked up your settings in the AOL account. Your username should be something like - [email protected] Your password is whatever you use as the password.
    You could try deleting the account and start over again. Here is a link to a "how to set up AOL email " on the iPad. It is  4 or 5 step process and just make sure that you are entering the correct information in the correct fields in the set up. Among my 4 email accounts on my iPad, I have 2 AOL accounts. I have no problems at  all and it was really very easy to set up. There is no reason why AOL email should not work on your iPad.
    To repeat and emphasize - Just make sure that you are entering the correct information in the appropriate fields as I think that's where you are making your mistakes.
    If I had my choice, I would probably chuck the AOL accounts as well, but I have all the spam filters set as high as I can on the server, and it has cut down tremendously on the spam. Unfortunately - we set up AOL accounts at my workplace years ago and I really hesitate to change them now, so I continue on with these, but like I said, they work fine and they were very easy to set up.

  • For some reason, the last few apps I have tried to install, show just a faded app, with " waiting" underneath. I have pressed update but they have stayed the same for two weeks,

    Why won,t my apps download? They just say " waiting" below them. I have updated but they seem stuck for two weeks now

    Maybe .... One of these suggestions will work for you.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.
    If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

  • Upgraded new iPad to iOS 5 after successfully using the machine for two weeks. The apps I downloaded are still here, checked for updates, all okay. However, when I try to use iBooks app or even USA Today, icon shakes, settles down then nothing. Help.

    Upgraded new iPad to iOS 5 after successfully using the machine for two weeks. The apps I downloaded are still here, checked for updates, all okay. However, when I try to use iBooks app or even USA Today, icon shakes, settles down then nothing else happens. Several tries, settings appear correct. Suggestions? Safari operates correctly, music icon matches (not from iTunes, simply music on my MacPro and iPod). Is Cloud the issue, perhaps? But everything worked before the upgrade. Using my home network. Hope this info suffices. Appreciate any guidance.

    Problem solved. Saw the solution in a more recent post. Downloaded a free app, then all my other apps started to work again.

  • I BOUGHT A IPHONE OFF A GUY ON THE STREETS IT WORKED FOR A WEEK AND NOW I THINK IT IS BLOKED WHAT SHUD I DO

    I BOUGHT AN IPHONE 4 OFF A GUY IN THE STREET IT WAS WORKING FOR A WEEK OR TWO AND NOW I CANT MAKE OR RECIEVE CALLS WHAT SHUD I DO. PLZ HELP.

    Did you sign up for a contract with AT&T? I assume so but had to ask.
    And why in the world would you buy a phone from some guy on the street?  Guys on the street are great if you want to buy a rock in a shrinkwrapped box or if you want something illegal or stolen but that's about it.  Think of this problem as tuition.

  • After being away for two weeks my iMac wont send my Orange mail.

    After being away on holiday for two weeks my iMac wont send my Orange mail. I get the message "The server “smtp.wanadoo.co.uk” refused to allow a connection on the default ports."
    I have not changed any setting, the email sends if I login to Webmail, so the account itself is valid. The iMac mail downloads my email perfectly as normal. Using Mac OS X 10.6.8. Email address is one I have used for almost 10 years without any problems.
    It is a POP3 account using default ports with no authentication or SSL. Have tried different ports (e.g. 26), putting password authentication on, but nothing works.
    Any ideas?

    Fixed it. Played about with the port numbers and got a more detailed message:
    Client host blocked for spamming issues. OUK104_102 Ref http://csi.cloudmark.com/reset-request/?ip=nn.nn.nn.n. Select a different outgoing mail server from the list below or click Try Later to leave the message in your Outbox until it can be sent.
    Went to Cloudmark and got the IP reset. Took an evening of work but worth it.

  • I have time machine saving onto two usb drives.  The backup is 4.6TB.  Each drive is 6TB.  Why is time machine only updating one drive?  (The other has been the same for two weeks.)

    I have time machine saving onto two usb drives. 
    The total size of the files being backed up is 4.6TB. 
    Each external USB drive is 6TB.   So I have 12 TB of space for Time Machine.
    Why is time machine only updating one USB drive?  (One drive has been the same for two weeks.)
    I have selected both drives in the Time Machine settings panel.
    My understanding was that it would do a full backup, and then incremental backups of changed files, getting rid of old copies as needed, and alternate between the two drives.
    But it looks like drive A has one complete backup, dated two weeks ago, and drive B is the only one getting action.
    There is a red icon on drive one that says the drive needs 120GB more space to do a backup -- which is strange since the whole backup set is only 4.6TB in size, and the drive is 6TB in size...

    You could try a clone instead.
    Clone  - Carbon Copy Cloner          (Often recommended as it has more features than some others)
    Clone – Data Backup
    Clone – Deja Vu
    Clone  - SuperDuper
