Safari opening websites

i have notice since i upgrade to 4.0.1 and open safari that some of the websites that i view now say need to turn on cookies. has anybody experience this? i have gone to settings and check everything looks okay.

You restored your iPhone with iTunes from your iPhone's backup, or as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup?
If the former only, if there is a problem with your iPhone's backup in this regard, restoring from the backup will also restore the problem.
I doubt this has anything to do with the firmware update. This is the first post I've seen here reporting this problem, and I haven't experienced the same with any of the websites that I regularly visit or otherwise.

Mac Safari open website in mobile version sometimes, such as GoogleTranslate. How to solve it

Sometimes Mac Safari open website in mobile version, such as GoogleTranslate. How to solve it?
I use iPhone and iPad as well, but I never open google translate page using safari both on iPhone and iPad. Just use the GoogleTranslate App sometimes.
Why does my Mac Safari open google translate page in mobile version for no reason?

If you use iCloud to synchronize Safari with a mobile device, you may be opening a bookmark to the mobile version of the site. Another possibility is that you're getting a Handoff activity from the device.
Remove everything from the URL except the domain name and try again. For instance, if the URL is something like this:
http://www.example.com/mobile
or
http://mobile.example.com
change it to this:
http://www.example.com

Safari opening websites only after an error message

I am using Safari 4.03(5531.9) and since the last update the websites only open after several attempts of reloading.
What can I do?

HI,
Try Safari Maintenance
In particular, Empty the Cache, and Reset Safari.

Safari opens websites not using HTML formatting- Why?

Can anyone help? This is what happens on many websites - such that I no longer use Safari : http://screencast.com/t/cmh3eNvkva
Safari gives me two problems:
1. Not formatting sites correctly making them unusable
2. Telling me that Site Certificates are untrusted (when they should be trusted - and are the correct sites)
I have tried everything I can think of - Clearing cashe - uninstalling and re-instaling Safari - upgrading Safari. Everything workd fine in Firefox - thank heaven.
But honestly, what's the point of a Browser - and a Mac one at that, which won't function properly?

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. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up guest users” (without the quotes) in the search box. 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 personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; 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. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
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.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

After I installed the recent Apple security patch, I can no longer save PDFs when using Safari. And Firefox no longer can open website PDFs. Any suggestions?

If the previous Safari suggestion doesn't work try the following:
In Finder, go to Macintosh HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins and move AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin to the Disabled Plug-ins Folder. Restart Safari. If this works you may just want to delete that FUBAR plug-in.
Thanks. This was the solution for me.

My school has a website. The professor uploads files in Word. When I click on the link at home using Pages, the download window opens with nothing in it and Safari opens with a blank in the address book. What Could be wrong? Wrong set up?

Hi Jo,
If I'm interpreting this correctly, the Word file downloads correctly, but when you open it in Pages, the link(s) which your instructor has embedded in the Word file are not correctly translated into Pages.
If the link shows the actual address, you should be able to copy that and paste it into the location bar in Safari, press return, and get to the website that way.
An alternate route might be to download one of the open source Office applications, OpenOffice.org, LibreOffice, or NeoOffice. These are written to more closely emulate the behaviours of MS Word than Pages, and may provide better support for links embedded in Word files.
Regards,
Barry

Opening websites directly in Safari

Is it possible to open websites from Firefox Home directly with Safari (skipping the part where Firefox Home displays the sites)?

Yes, there are plans, but no timeline. It might be the default behavior in newer devices that support multitasking.

Appstore dosent work and Safari dont open Websites

Hi Everybody,
i have update my Ipad Mini to IOS7. After a few days i cant use the appstore and safari anymore. I can not open the Appstore. The Site is loading again and again until this message is viewed "Connection to Appstore is not possible".
Beneath this, safari cant open websites. Only google is working. I can search für some notes, but if i want to open it, its loading again and the sites not viewed.
Some Apps are working. Like Youtube per example. I can watch videos without problems. I already restart the ipadmini and shut it down but nothing helps at the moment.
Also, i have try to recover my ipad mini over itunes but i cant disable "search my ipad" by the icloud category. I get the message "checking failed, timeout by requirement".
I hope my english is not very bad. iam german.
thanx and i hope you guys can help me.
Daniel

Daniel
Your English is fine. Much better than German for sure.
Try a Restart.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your settings
You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

I find it ABSOLUTELY unacceptable that since recently safari opens up random "commercial websites" without me clicking on any link. And it does that without allowing me to go (back) to the site I really clicked on. STOP THAT!!!!!!

There is no need to download anything to solve this problem. You may have installed a variant of the "VSearch" ad-injection malware. Follow Apple Support's instructions to remove it.
If you have trouble following those instructions, see below.
Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. This procedure works as of now, as far as I know. It may not work in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for a more recent discussion, or start a new one.
The VSearch malware tries to hide itself by varying the names of the files it installs. To remove it, you must first identify the naming pattern.
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
/Library/LaunchDaemons
In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
A folder named "LaunchDaemons" may open. Look inside it for two files with names of the form
          com.something.daemon.plist
and
           com.something.helper.plist
Here something is a variable string of characters, which can be different in each case. So far it has always been a string of letters without punctuation, such as "cloud," "dot," "highway," "submarine," or "trusteddownloads." Sometimes it's a meaningless string such as "e8dec5ae7fc75c28" rather than a word. Sometimes the string is "apple," and then you must be especially careful not to delete the wrong files, because many built-in OS X files have similar names.
If you find these files, leave the LaunchDaemons folder open, and open the following folder in the same way:
/Library/LaunchAgents
In this folder, there may be a file named
          com.something.agent.plist
where the string something is the same as before.
If you feel confident that you've identified the above files, back up all data, then drag just those three files—nothing else—to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Close the Finder windows and restart the computer.
Don't delete the "LaunchAgents" or "LaunchDaemons" folder or anything else inside either one.
The malware is now permanently inactivated, as long as you never reinstall it. You can stop here if you like, or you can remove two remaining components for the sake of completeness.
Open this folder:
/Library/Application Support
If it has a subfolder named just
           something
where something is the same string you saw before, drag that subfolder to the Trash and close the window.
Don't delete the "Application Support" folder or anything else inside it.
Finally, in this folder:
/System/Library/Frameworks
there may an item named exactly
            v.framework
It's actually a folder, though it has a different icon than usual. This item always has the above name; it doesn't vary. Drag it to the Trash and close the window.
Don't delete the "Frameworks" folder or anything else inside it.
If you didn't find the files or you're not sure about the identification, post what you found.
If in doubt, or if you have no backups, change nothing at all.
The trouble may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Then, still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
          Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
or
          Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
if it's not already checked.

Why won't safari open the jjill website? what do i do?

why wont safari open the j.jill website? what can i do to fix this?

opening this web page does the same thing.
to clarify: we get an email from jjill and click to open it and are directed to safari which will not open it. we cannot go to the j.jill site from the email, nor can we go directly to the j.jill site from safari. we cannot get to j.jill at all. we can get to other websites....we are having a problem getting to this one only. We can get to this site on other deivces, i.e. ipads, other laptops, etc. The problem is currently happening on our MacBook only.
The message we get from safari is:
"too many redirects. this may occur if you open a page that is redirected to open another page which then is redirected to open the original page."
what can we do about this to fix it?
Thanks.

Why is my iPad opening website links using the Google App not Safari?

Why is my iPad opening website links using the Google App not Safari? Everything was fine until two days ago when it started opening them with Google App. I tried uninstalling Google but nothing has changed. It would not bother me at all but it takes Google a lifetime to open them where as Safari used to do it in a matter of seconds. I own an iPad Air, iOS 7.1.2.

How is it opening a website with the Google App if you uninstalled it?
Are you sure its the Google App, and not simply Safari opening in a Google search?
What exactly is happening?
Basically there is no way to change the default browser for opening links.
However, some apps like The Gmail App will open links within themselves or Chrome if it is installed and the option is enabled in the Gmail App settings.

Safari opens to a page other than what I've defined in Preferences

This has me stumped...
I'm running Mountain Lion 10.8.4. When I open Safari (6.0.5), it does not open the homepage (Google). Instead, it automatically opens another website (http://pregnant.thebump.com/pregnancy-week-by-week/25-weeks-pregnant.aspx?MsdVis it=1). However, if I click the Home button on the browser, it does go to my homepage. This happens every time Safari is opened, regardless of the last page or tabs that were open the last time Safari was closed. This only happens with my wife's user, and only in Safari. It does not occur if I open Chrome as her user. Things I've tried...
Resetting the homepage preferences in Safari / Preferences.
When I go to Safari / Extensions, there are no extensions listed. When I go to home folder / Library / Internet Plugins, the only one in there is Picasa.plugin. I tried moving it to the desktop, resetting Safari, closing Safari, and the problem still exists when I open Safari back up.
I tried something similar with the Mac HD / Library / Internet Plugins folder. Took them all to the desktop, reset Safari, closed Safari, opened Safari. Problem still exists.
I've tried the Devolop / Empty Caches menu item. I've tried “sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder” in Terminal to reset the DNS.
The only thing that seems to work is when I hold Shift as I open Safari. Only if I do that does it correctly go to the homepage. I'm out of ideas. Help?

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Saved Application State/com.apple.Safari.savedState
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Quit the application if it's running. Move the selected item to the Trash. Relaunch the application and test.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

Dear All,

Hello Abdo_Zain,
I would be concerned too if I was not able to gain access to my iPad. If you are unsure what your Apple ID is, you can find the steps in this article:
Apple ID: How to find your Apple ID
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5625
You can reset a forgotten Apple ID password by going to the following link:
Apple - iForgot
https://iforgot.apple.com
Also, you may be able to skip the step of entering your Apple ID if you are setting up the iPad for the first time.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Sheila M.

Open website in mobile version

How can I prevent Safari opening the website from mobile version? Thanks!

You can't, it's not one of the settings that you can change. Other browsers do have settings that allow them to identify themselves as something else (Internet Exploter, desktop Safari, Firefox etc e.g. Atomic Web (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/atomic-web-browser-browse/id347929410?mt=8), and iCab might as well (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/icab-mobile-web-browser/id308111628?mt=8# - not entirely sure as I havn't got iCab)
