Safari preferences problems

Yesterday I started having problems with Safari (2.0.3).
Default settings changed to Western (ISO Latin 1 ) then I was unable to use my wireless Intellimouse to move back and forth thru web pages. It does in Firefox with no problems. It seems that the update MacOSXUpdCombo10.4.6PPC.dmg may have something to do with it. I first installed the upgrade last week but had no problems until yesterday.
When I try the buttons for forward and back it zooms in and out on the web page at hand.
Changed back to Western ( Mac OS Roman) deleted the plist files, also installed Safari 2.0.2 from a backup drive, used the older plists files.
Then a fresh install of the Intellimouse software 5.0.2.
Then later searched for a update to the Intellimouse software on Microsoft's web site found 6.0 and installed it. Changed the control to Intellipoint pointer speed jsut in case it might work.
But still get the same results after all this..
All keyboard commands and menu bar controls work fine.

Thank you for bringing this to me attention:
As a workaround, have you tried forcing a manual assignment of the cmd+[ >>and cmd+] keystrokes to the 'back' and 'forward' buttons in the intellimouse >>software? I'm not familiar with the software, but I'd hope it's possible.

Well I do not know what I was thinking at the time, but got it to work by hitting both keys at the same time to set up each button.
I was clicking the Command box then inserting the [ or ] key in the blank input box at the bottom.
But as far ar the preferences changing to something other than what I had them set for. Is still a mystery.
Thanks again for your help with this.

  • Preference problem in Safari

    I want to cahnge my home page. Help says to go safari>preferences>general BUT .... when I go to preferences I just get the bookmarks option window.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    You need to opoen that preference page, and then click on the little oval grayish button on the top right hand corner. Somehow that got click when you last visited the bookmarks page.
    You're other options should now appear.

  • Unable to set cookie preferences in safari 5.1.5 by going to safari/preferences/privacy.  It used to be there and now there is nothing showing under that tab.

    I had looked at the cookies a couple of weeks ago.  I deleted all cookies.
    A few days ago my email was hacked into which sent a spam email to all my contacts.  I changed my password to that account, warned everyone in my contacts, and haven't had a problem with email since.
    However, I tried to do the 'delete all cookies' again and when I go to safari/preferences/privacy...there is nothing on that screen under that tab.  Not even a question mark. I changed my history items to be removed every day from every week but don't think that would be the issue.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    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 quitting problem

    For a few days now everytime I open up one of my twitter accounts Safari quits immediately, doesn't happen with other account. Anyone experienced similar problem?

    Libby...
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Security tab.
    Deselect:  Enable plug--ins
    Quit then relaunch Safari to test. If it doesn't crash, follow the instructions for troubleshooting Safari add ons here > Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues

  • Before every time I use to open a new tab it comes as top site. Now not anymore and instead is an automatically website calle Only Search. I went to Safari preference I change everything and when I quit Safari all the changes are gone.

    Every time I used to open a new tab it comes as top site. Now not anymore , instead it open in a website called Only Search, I went to safari preferences and made all changes but after I quit Safari and open again all changes are gone. I can not change anything and new tab comes by it self with other website.

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
    You may have installed the "Downlite" or "VSearch" ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    Besides the files listed in the support article, you may also need to remove this item in the same way:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ConduitNPAPIPlugin.plugin
    One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
    If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, then you may have one of the other kinds of adware covered by the support article. Follow the rest of the instructions in the article.
    The problem 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 malware 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.
    Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates
    if it's not already checked.

  • In Safari Preferences, Safari is not listed as a Browser.

    Yesterday, Safari's icon disappeared from the dock after I started the program (it bounced and then the "applications" icon stood in as the substitute icon).
    When I click on the non-Safari icon, Safari starts up like normal and everything runs smooth.
    Problem encountered: In Safari Preferences, under General: Default Web Browser, it does not list Safari (other web browsers are offered).
    Currently, when I read my NetNewsWires and click on a link, one of these other web browsers opens up. I prefer Safari and I would like it back. I have browsed the Apple discussions and I have erased the icons folder and I have repaired permissions, but to no avail. Please help.

    Hello Matthew:
    Welcome to Apple discussions.
    You might try to trash the safari preference file. Close Safari. Trash com.apple.safari.plist. Restart and enter your personal preferences.

  • Any time I open Safari i get a popup for myvdrive? why and how do I stop this? yes my safari preferences are checked that popups should be turned off.

    why and how do I stop this? yes my safari preferences are checked that popups should be turned off. Also it pops up any time that I click anywhere to do anything in safari. Please help.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads 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.
    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 boot, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot 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 boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login 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, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Why is Evernote listed as a "default browser" in Safari preferences?

    When I go to Safari preferences, it lists Evernote as a choice for a default browser. Any ideas?

    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.

    From your Safari menu bar click Safari / Preferences then select the Appearance tab.
    Make sure:  Display images when the page opens is selected.
    If that box was already checked, select the Security tab in the same Preferences pane.
    Deselect:  Enable plug-ins.
    Quit then relaunch Safari. If you can view images now then you have a third party Safari add on installed that's preventing images from rendering. Help for that here.

  • Safari with problems with video playing

    Hello all,
    I am using a new Macbook Pro 13'' with retina display. I have bought it less than 2 weeks ago and it shows it has OS version 10.9.1. Safari version is 7.
    When I try to stream videos from coursera.com I just see a black background when the video was supposed to be playing. The audio plays fine, but no video. Has anyone had a similar problem?
    Other question, has anyone managed to be able to play more videos from youtube without flash? I haven't installed because I have read it drains battery faster. I have survived without in mavericks, but I haven't been able to play many videos on youtube, only a few, and these cases are rare.
    Regards,

    try form safari to :
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    then obviously make sure that the latest version of quicktime is install on you mac.
    let me know

  • Preferences Problem

    This one's a little tricky. First some history: After suffering a massive Kernal Panic problem following an upgrade to 10.4.6, I had to reinstall to 10.4.3. I'm afraid to upgrade any further at this time.
    Since that time, I believe Safari is responsible writing 40mb files over and over, filling up the Preferences directory until the hard drive is full.
    I used OmniDiskSweeper to find the files initially, but now I just go in and delete them.
    Along with that Preferences problem, my Accounts and Dock preferences have changed on their own. My computer used to just start up with no login, then suddenly it starting asking for a log in. I started up the other day, and it ran that User Introduction Setup program that occurs when you first start up after installing OSX for the first time. I turned on the computer today, and my doc was back to default.
    It also doesn't always start up completely, stalling before the hard drives mount.
    I told you it was tricky. Any advice would be great.
    Thanks,
    Jon

    Are you running Norton anything?
    There is a bug in their software that will fill a drive up also the 10.4.6 update causes a problem with their software.
    So I would just start over with a fresh install of the OS again but follow these steps.
    1: Backup files to cd/dvd, not to a drive if possible.
    2: C boot off Tiger and select Disk utility, Erase w/Zero option format HFS+
    3: Install Tiger, Developers Tools and and bundled apps like iLife, setup and run Software update until clear (download the combo updater instead)
    4: Install iLife '06 and update. Repair permissions
    5: Install apps from original Tiger ready sources and disks, update, Repair Permissions. Don't install Norton or anything using your admin password.
    6: Any external drives or brand new boot drives different from Apple, visit the makers sites and download any driver updates.
    7: Trick out your new OS, desktop whatever the way you like it.
    8: Get yourself a external drive and a copy of Carbon Copy Cloner, Erase w/Zero the new drive. Clone the pristine boot drive to the external. Follow this:
    http://forums.bombich.com/viewtopic.php?t=2607
    9: Set the external as boot and check it out, disconnect it.
    10. Now you can start playing with potentially infected files (metadata exploit), root level installs (Norton is still not advised), OS modifications and whatnot.
    If something screws up and you want to start over, first c boot from the Tiger install disk and Erase (Zero only needed once per drive) before booting from the clone and reverse cloning.
    I would get a another drive for cloning your current boot drive every week or so just to minimalize downtime if your main hard drive dies.
    Using this method of cloning makes resolving any issue a breeze, you just go back to a earlier configuration that you know works and it's pretty easy to guess it's the last thing you did that messed up your system.

  • Safari Preferences Will Not Open

    Hi,
    Have a weird Safari issue:
    When I go to Safari->Preferences or use the key combo, nothing happens. The preferences window will not open.
    Also a list of other issues:
         The "find" (apple F) option is greyed out for all webpages.
         "Reset Safari" is greyed out.
         An inordinate number of popups.
    It thought maybe adware, but its a fresh install of Yosemite with no safari extensions. Scanned for adware with AdwareMedic, nothing. Nothing with ClamXav. No Mackeeper, no geneio. I've run out of possibilities! Any ideas?
    It's safari 8.0.3 (though was happening with the previous version as well), on 10.10.2. Firefox is also getting a lot of popups, but can "find".

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
    You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
    In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
    You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of it have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message. See, for example, this discussion.
    Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
    ☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
    ☞ Paste into the window of another application.
    ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
    ☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
    The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
    5. Try to test under conditions that reproduce the problem, as far as possible. For example, if the computer is sometimes, but not always, slow, run the test during a slowdown.
    You may have started up in "safe" mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, a series of lines will appear in the Terminal window like this:
    [Process started]
            Part 1 of 8 done at … sec
            Part 8 of 8 done at … sec
            The results are on the Clipboard.
            Please close this window.
    [Process completed]
    The intervals between parts won't be exactly equal, but they give a rough indication of progress. The total number of parts may be different from what's shown here.
    Wait for the final message "Process completed" to appear. If you don't see it within about ten minutes, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, press the key combination control-C or command-period to stop it. Then go to the next step.
    12. When the test is complete, or if you stopped it because it was taking too long, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I may not agree with them.

  • Desktop & Safari Preferences Not Saved

    I just upgraded to an iMac G5. The original system was Tiger 10.4, so I used Software Update to upgrade to 10.4.3. Now I have several problems:
    Safari home page doesn't save my preference but reverts to Apple
    Desktop appearance preferences don't save. It reverts to the blue default
    The Help menu doesn't work! It gives me a blank screen. If I click on the home button, it takes me to the home page for Help, but nothing on it works.
    Can anyone please help me with these problems? Also - how do I select Safari as my default browser, since it keeps selected IE?
    Thanks and happy holidays!
    Jill

    Hi, G.
    1. Given the range of problems you are reporting, the first thing I suggest is a general check: run the procedure specified in my "Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption" FAQ. Perform the steps therein in the order specified.
    2. re: Safari and Desktop preferences: be sure you are the Owner and have Read & Write access to your Home > Library > Preferences folder. and any folders therein.
    3. Re: Help Viewer: See my "Troubleshooting Help Viewer" FAQ for comprehensive advice on fixing issues with Help Viewer, including the issue you mention.
    4. Default browser is set in the Safari > Preferences > General tab.
    Before you run a Software Update in the future again, See my "Installing Software Updates" FAQ for some tips that might help prevent these problems or provide you with a fallback position in case an update goes badly.
    Good luck!

  • Safari/Gmail problems after upgrade to 10.6.3

    Hi All,
    I posted this in the Snow Leopard forum with no responses so far; it seems to specifically be a problem with Safari, since upgrading to 10.6.3, so I'm posting here also.
    I did the upgrade through Software update. All seemed well until I tried logging in to my Gmail/Google account using Safari.
    After entering my login info I got a redirect to a Google page telling me my browser cookie settings weren't correct and to clear the cache.
    I cleared the browser cache, checked cookie settings, repaired permissions and rebooted.
    Yet, I still can't login using Safari.
    The login screen keeps reloading and asking for my password.
    I can log in with Chrome and FireFox. And Mail seems to be working well (set up to retrieve my Gmail messages). But I need to have web access to various Google services.
    Has anyone else experience this after upgrading to 10.6.3? Any ideas on how to fix this?
    Thanks

    HI,
    From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences then select the Autofill tab. Click the Edit button next to Other forms. Delete .google.com then click Done. Relaunch Safari. Try accessing Gmail. If you still have problems...
    Open Keychain Access (Applications/Utilities) Select Passwords on the left then delete your Google Gmail keychain on the right. Also delete the "Safari Forms Autofill" keychain. Quit Keychain Access. Relaunch Safari. Navigate to your Gmail page, enter your username and password. Click Yes when prompted.
