Safari privacy settings blank??? HELP, PLZ

I open Safari. No problem. I click Safari>preferences>privacy ... and there is a blank area under the privacy icon. No writing, no options showing, no way to config cookies-NOTHING! Can anyone help me to restore these settings to the privacy tab?
Thank You

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. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
Application Support/SIMBL
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 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.

Clarification on different Safari privacy settings

Recently I was reviewing the different privacy settings in Safari and between web searches and the help file I wasn't able to find the difference between these two settings.
Allow from current website only
and
Allow from websites I visit
I tried both settings out and visited the same websites and it appears to track/add the same cookies.
I was hoping someone could shed some light on the differences between these two options.
Thanks

Hey there jnepp,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
I see that you’ve already searched Help, but I’d like to share this section of Safari Help in case you haven’t already seen it. The information on the webpage below should clarify the differences between those privacy settings in Safari.
Manage cookies and website data
Allow from current website only: Safari accepts cookies and website data only from the website you’re currently visiting. Websites often have embedded content from other sources. Safari does not allow these third parties to store or access cookies or other data.
Allow from websites I visit: Safari accepts cookies and website data only from websites you visit. Safari uses your existing cookies to determine whether you have visited a website before. Selecting this option helps prevent websites that have embedded content in other websites you browse from storing cookies and data on your Mac.
Cheers,
-Jason

Privacy settings in safara

Hi,
I regularly remove cookies, etc. from my safari privacy settings as they appear due to internet browsing. I have never had any issue with removing unwanted sites. However, just recently a plug-in for what appears to be an IP address starting with 174.120. appeared and it will not allow me to remove it. I attempted to locate this plug-in in my library for internet plug-ins but I don't see it there in this format.
Does anyone know what this may be and how and if it should be removed?
Thank you for any helpful information on this.
Have a good week.

From the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.

Why is my privacy preference blank in Safari 5.1

Why is my privacy preference blank in Safari 5.1. There is no way to manage cookies. It appears on my iMac but not my Macbook. Any imput on the issue appreciated.

Safari preferences in Version 5.1 (6534.50) with respect to cookies have changed with this latest update. In July, the last time I reviewed cookies saved in Safari, I was able to delete cookies individually. This no longer appears to be possible in the latest update.
In the Preferences > Privacy pane, there is a button "Remove All Website Data" which applies to "Cookies and other website data." I don't want to use this. I want to retain some cookies but not others. Under the "Remove all" button is another one, "Details" that applies to "[This many] websites stored cookies or other data." Clicking "Details" reveals a pane that shows all the website domains that stored data in Safari. Unlike the previous version of Safari, however, the pane does not show individual cookies set by the domains. It is possible only to review all the cookies set by a domain or none of them. This is a disadvantage. I very much prefer the previous version.
Another change, I think (not sure), is that in the latest Safari, private browsing no longer appears to block new cookies. In the Safari help file, the Browsing privately page shows the following statement:
"When Private Browsing is on, webpages are not added to the history list, the names of downloads are removed from the Downloads window after downloading is complete, AutoFill information isn’t saved, and searches are not added to the pop-up menu in the search field. Websites that store databases on your computer can’t modify the databases, so services normally available at such sites may work differently until you turn off Private Browsing. Any changes made to cookies are discarded when you turn off Private Browsing."
The last sentences, in fact, imply, by omission, that new cookies may be added to Safari, even though private browsing is turned on.
For these reason, I have abandoned Safari, and I will now use Firefox, which continues to allow reviewing and editing of the complete cookie list. If Apple reconsiders and makes it possible again to review all cookies individually, I will return to using Safari
If someone know of a way to review cookies individually in the current version of Safari, please let me know. Or if I am incorrect about what the latest version of Safari permits with respect to cookies, kindly correct me.

Hello..i have IPhone 4S i did reset to factory settings by fault and till now after a 2 hours there is nothing just a waiting icon in the middle of the screen and none of home or turn off button are response so i do need your help plz

Try to reset it by holding the power an home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release. If it won't reset, you'll probably have to force it into recovery mode and restore it, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808.

I recently upgraded to iOS 7.0. When I open Safari to a blank page, a small "Settings" icon appears against the white background. When I click on it, it opens a link to a web page that is not among my other bookmarks. How can I get rid of it?

Firefox installed version 5. I cannot find the place to change privacy settings. I have searched the Help and it does not show how to edit mine. I have Vista. I urgently need to enable cookies. Help

I have searched under the Firefox dropdown box and cannot find tools or privacy settings.

Click the Firefox button, click Options, click Options, from there, everything is the same as before (click Privacy and be sure first item "Firefox will:" is set to "Use custom setting for history" to see all of the settings on that panel).
You can still use/see the Menu Bar (''File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Help'') if you prefer it:
*'''Temporarily display the Menu Bar''': press the ALT key for the F10 key and make your selections from the temporarily displayed Menu Bar
*'''Toggle between the Menu Bar and Firefox button'''. Do one of the following:
**NOTE:
***Menu Bar '''checked''' = Menu Bar on, Firefox button off
***Menu Bar '''un-checked''' = Menu Bar off, Firefox button on
**keyboard shortcut: HOLD the ALT key while pressing the letters VTM on your keyboard
**Using the Menu Bar: click View > Toolbars, click Menu Bar
**Using the Firefox Button: click Firefox Button > Options, click Menu Bar
**right-click on an empty space in one of the toolbars, click Menu Bar

I accidentally selected "do note allow" Pages access to my photos. Now I can't insert photos. Message says go to settings and select Privacy - but there is no such option in the Settings. Help!

I accidentally selected "do note allow" Pages access to my photos. Now I can't insert photos. Message says go to settings and select Privacy - but there is no such option in the Settings. Help! I want to be able to insert images in documents I create in the Pages app.

Ok - I figured it out myself as soon as I posted this question. I went to my IPad settings - not the Settings in the Pages app. Problem fixed.

Help! My Safari browser shows blank on Windows 7 OS

I am not sure why my Safari browser goes blank and I have no idea why. I was working before but it now only shows "Blank page" after I upgraded a new version of Safari about 3 months ago.
Thanks,

Privacy settings keep resetting on my mac

First of all...
I'm running: OS X Version 10.9.5
Processor: 1.86 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Starting today safari opens pop-ups anytime I click on a link or button. I also noticed that my privacy settings keep changing from "third parties and advertisers" to "never."
I have cleaned out my history, deleted all cookies, and started my computer in safe mode. Nothing has helped so far. I have no idea what has caused this. I have had my computer for 4 years or so and this is the first problem I have had. PLEASE HELP! (p.s. I couldn't even had that emoji without a popup appearing.)

You may have inadvertently installed adware. Eradicating it is simple and you don't need to download anything to fix it.
For an explanation or how this may have occurred, how to avoid it in the future, and for one possible solution read How to install adware. Although you should read the entire document, the Recovery Procedure at the end describes how to solve your particular problem.

Safari privacy and cookie management is not available

When checking safari preferences to check the settings the privacy settings where blank immediately after upgrading to Lion then checking later the cookies appeared in list form but subsequently disappeared and has not reappeared. Is there something I am missing. PowerBook pro 233 2007. Model

From the Safari menu bar click Safari / Preferences then select the Security tab.
Click: Show Cookies.
Type Comcast in the search field then click Remove All then click Done.
Restart your iMac, launch Safari. Try mail.
Also, empty the Safari cache more often. From the menu bar, Safari / Empty Cache.
