Safari missing homepage in Lion
Upgraded to Lion. Now everytime I quite Safari and reopen my "homepage" is the last website I visited. I have checked all prefrences to make sure new tabs and windows open with my "homepage". If I use the keyboard shortcut to get back to my "homepage" (control, shift, H) my saved homepage is displayed properly. Any thoughts?
Try troubleshooting the Safari .plist file.
Quit Safari. Open a Finder window. Select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. It has a small house icon. Then open the Library folder then the Preferences folder. Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop. Launch Safari. If that made a difference, move the .plist file to the Trash. If not move it back to the Preferences folder.
If that didn't help, go to ~ / Library / Caches / com.apple.Safari/
Move the Cache.db file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash and restart your Mac.

When I start Safari 5.1 in Lion, it always opens the last page opened. Is there a way to start on the homepage?
That sounds great, but on my system, that box is not at the bottom of my Pref/General page, but is when I log out and put it to sleep. What is really annoying is that I have to do this every time, instead of unchecking it and it being permanent. Yes, I have Safari 5.1 and Lion. I would like to permanently disable this as I too, think it is absurd and not a great idea when banking, paying bills, etc.

Pinch to zoom not available in safari 6 on OSX lion
Hello,
Just updated safari to safari 6 using Software Update. I have a late 2011 MBpro with OSX lion 10.7.4.
Pinch to zoom is not working in safari 6, though was working fine before the update (safari 5.x). Note that pinch to zoom still works fine with other applications (preview, chrome, etc).
Any advice?
It also seems that many features are missing with lion's safari 6, versus moutain lion's safari 6 (show all tabs button, share button, etc).
Thanks.yes, what in the world is going on with this latest OS, even claimed to be world's most advanced!?
I was shocked enough when I realized no 4finger swipe to switch apps, and 3finger swipe to go back and forth between pages not working when you have 3finger drag enabled
now what's utterly frustrating is NO MORE PINCH TO ZOOM IN FINDER
this is like one of the most important functions in the OS, and it's gone!?
this must come back
please fix these in the next update -
Almost my iTunes library is missing since upgrade Lion 7.2. (the last 2.5 weeks worth of added music has transferred post-upgrade, none of whcih was bought from iTunes)
I have it all backed up so that's not the issue. How can I reinstall it with all my hundreds of playlists intact or do I have to recreate each playlist upon reinstalling the backup copy? This would save a HUGE amount of time and efforts. Thank you for your help!hi Limnos,
I do not mean the entire ITunes folder but, rather, the contents of the ITunes folder prior to September 29th. (90% of the media is missing, along with all playlists) The media that remains says it was added on 9/29 although I know most of it was added many months or even years earlier. There are no playlists listed at all, before or after 9/29. (I know for certain that I added non-iTunes purchased songs on 10/6 although I had not created playlists for them)
I have my iTunes folder backed up on both an external drive as well as Time Machine.
I run iTunes off of an ITunes folder on my computer rather than from the external, if that's what you mean about how I have it set up.
Is it OK to drag the entire iTunes folder from the external drive onto my laptop's drive and see if that fixes it?
Thank you for your help!

When submitting a target survey I get back an error.... I think this may be a safari problem or mountain lion problem as I used to be able to submit surveys on their survey site. This problem occurs if I use my MacBook Pro or my iPad. I want try to win a 5000 gift card and can't win if I can't submit the survey. It lets me fill out everything and only after I hit submit I receive an error. Target says it's not their problem. I curious to know if anyone else has tried and receive back an error after hitting the submit button.
Thanks.....I'll try that the next time I get a new receipt from target. My old receipts are older than 72 hours now so I can't try Firefox with them. I appreciate the response and will certainly try this and post a reply if I was successful in submitting the target survey.

At some time you appear to have moved or renamed an older version of Safari to your desktop. Make sure you launch the Safari 6 that came with Mountain Lion which is in the Applications folder, and trash that older version.
If you somehow deleted Safari 6 or overwrote it with an older copy, you'll either need to reinstall Mountain Lion, copy Safari 6 from another system running Mountain Lion, or extract Safari 6 from the Mountain Lion installer using Pacifist from Charlessoft. Safari 6 for Mountain Lion is not available as a separate download from Apple, to the best of my knowledge.

I downloaded Safari 5.1. Open Safari box appears and reads:"Can't open Safari, missing file Libicuuc.dll.Reinstall Safari. Tried that no luck.
I found this discussion about three or four months ago. I was having the same problem with Safari not opening, along with my other login items.
The tip posted by Linc on Oct 3, 2011 9:22 AM, resolved the issue.
Thanks Linc!
HOWEVER... Today, all of the sudden... Out of out of the blue... I have the same problem, again!?
I tried removing, then re-adding, the URL file from the log in items, automatic open list.
It did not work?
Does anybody have any ideas/solutions regarding this issue? This is becoming VERY aggravating! -
safari missing on my iPad hard reset will not solve my problem
Look in Settings>General>Restrictions. Is Safari restricted? If so, the icon will disappear.
Swip from screen to screen and see if you moved it to another screen.
You can also reset the home screen layout and the icon will reappear - but the home screen will return to the way that it looked when you first activated your iPad.

Safari 5.1 in Lion takes forever to launch in admin account
Hi,
Safari 5.1 in Lion takes forever to launch in admin account: It launches after 29-30 bounces of the icon in the Dock.
For comparison, in another (guest) user account. Safari launches with just 1 bounce of the icon in the Dock. Any help?I am having the same problem. Did anyone find any solution?

Slide bar in Finder missing in Mountain Lion?
I just upgraded to Mountain Lion and am not terribly happy with some of the small changes.
Is the slide bar that changes the size of the file icons in Finder missing in Mountain Lion?
I do not like the pinch and expand thing, never used it, but would quite frequently use the small slide bar at the bottom right.
I know I can change them permanently via Finder/View/Show View Options, but that's a pain too...such a simple thing and they got rid of it?
I can tell these things are done by young people with good eyesite!Well, I don't know what I did, was just in the "Finder/View/Show View Options" and in Icon view, and now it's working...Hm. Never mind...
