Safari Reset Doesn't Work

I'm having a bit of trouble. Safari is no longer responding to the reset function. I click it, it opens the dialog asking me if I really want to do this, I click yes, and then nothing happens. I think this started after I downloaded the latest security update. Has anybody else had this problem? Is there a solution? Thank you.
12 iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4) 512 MB RAM

Hey just found that plist it was in my home file. So I deleted it and now Safari has done a complete reset. Let's hope this works, eh? How much plist info does it need to build up before the cookie list becomes indestructable? Why does OS X claim to so something but doesn't?
Many thanks guys respect..

New to Safari - GMail doesn't work?

I have always used Firefox on my Mac, but I decided to try Safari a little. I use Gmail religiously, but I noticed it only displays the "basic HTML" view in Safari. When I try to enable the "standard" view mode, it doesn't work.
I have tried searching the forums but haven't found any conclusive answers. Should I just stick with Firefox or Camino instead?

Is it possible that you have JavaScript turned off in Safari? That would do it, since Standard view for Gmail requires JavaScript.
If it's on, have you tried at different times of the day, since it could be an intermittent issue? Do youu get any error messages, or messages of any kind when it won't load Standard view? Post again with more details.

Microphone on iPad 3 stopped working.reset doesn't work

HEllo,
Can anyone help me in regards to the microphone on ipad3? It was working fine yesterday but today it doesn't work. I tried resetting by holding the home and power button, restored original settings and nothing. Anyone had this problem? What do I do?

I saw one post where a user said dust got inside the small microphone hole. Using a vacuum cleaner removed the dust and restored the audio.
 Cheers, Tom

Safari download doesn't work

Previously I was using Safari 6.1 on my MBP (OS X 10.7.5) and all was good until I had a window telling me that my current version of Safari was no longer supported by youtube.
I downloaded Safari 7.x and now it will not open. The new Safari icon in the Applications folder has a white circle with diagonal slash (like the NO or Do Not Enter signs) and when it is Clicked there is a window saying "You can't use this version of Safari with this version OS. You have 10.7.5 and it requires 10.9."
I tried downloading Safari 6.1 and it said the download was successful. But the newer Safari icon (described above) remains in the Applications folder. Even tried downloading Safari 6.1 to another location (User's directory) but it won't open there and that doesn't work either.
How do I get Safari back?
And I'm assuming I've probably lost all my bookmarks and history too!
Help, please.

Thanks dominic23… I do have my data backed up . Just that Safari doesn't work now.
And thanks QuickTimeKirk for your suggestions.
You mean the ONLY way I can get Safari back is to restore the Operating System?
When trying to install a version of anything that is not compatible with the OS you normally get a window saying such. And the OS doesn't allow the installation. In this case the OS allowed the installation thereby killing the working version and leaving an incompatible version. So I'm out a working version of Safari unless I restore the entire OS?
Surely there's another way. Thanks again!!

Safari menu doesn't work

I have a strange Safari bug... After about a day of using Safari 2.0.4 (the latest stable version), the main Safari menu stops working. I can still pull it down, but selecting anything in it does nothing.
For example, I can pull down the Safari menu and select Quit, but the app doesn't quit. I can pull it down and select Preferences, but no preferences appear.
On the other hand, I can type Cmd-Q and Safari will quit. I can type Cmd-K to toggle pop-up blocking. But selecting any item in the menu doesn't work.
All the other menus work fine. Safari itself also works fine. The application menu in other apps work perfectly.
The problem crops up after about a day or so. If I quit Safari and re-launch, the menu will behave correctly for a while. Then, sometime later, it will stop working. Safari has been doing this for at least a year -- perhaps two.
I have tried trashing Safari's preferences. A Mac Genius suggested installing Safari 3 Beta, then un-installing to restore Safari 2, but that didn't help.
Any ideas?
PowerMac G5 Dual Mac OS X (10.4.10)

This might be worth a try:
Empty Safari's cache (from the Safari menu), then close Safari.
Go to Home/Library/Safari and delete the following files:
form values
download.plist
Then go to Home/Library/Preferences and delete
com.apple.Safari.plist
Start up Safari again, and things should have improved.
Safari has been doing this for at least a year -- perhaps two.
And you never to question it? I have never seen that behaviour.

Iphone 5 won't turn on. Reset doesn't work either.

Hi All,
My Dad's having an issue with his iPhone 5. The cellphone won't turn on. This happened after he turned it off one day.
He's tried pressing home button and power button, but that doesn't work either. He believes that the phone has too little free memory for iOS to boot.
So we are just wondering if there is a way he can backup the photos/contacts in that case?
I am just wondering if you have any insights?
Thanks,
Di

Having the phone refuse to turn on is a symptom of a completely drained battery. Connect the phone to the charger that came with it and connect that to a good wall outlet. Wait at least 30 minutes then reset the phone. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. If the phone restarts let it continue to charge until the battery is at 100%. If the phone does not restart Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

Wrt120n resetting doesn't work

Putting this router back in service, I reset (10 and 30 sec hold) until lights flashed. Unplugged it. Came back and connected to computer. Used default u/n = blank and p/w = admin -- doesn't work, can't get to control screen. Tried various combinations and still won't work. How do I get router to respond? Tech support won't help.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Login through FF wouldn't work do matter how my settings are. MSIE login worked first time. "To reset this, unplug the modem and plug it back in again" Did this many times. "What I usually have to do is connect a computer straight to the modem to get the modem to register its MAC address. " Did that too. "Then when that is connected to the internet, I connect up the WRT120N to the modem and clone the MAC address to match the computer MAC address." Not sure how this is done. But I never had to do this when shifting routers around lots of different installations -- more than 10, anyway. I just plugged the router into the modem, rebooted the modem, and everything worked. But that was using Netgear and other brands. This is the first Linksys I've tried, and I'm not real happy about it! Especially with the **bleep** the setup program put on my computer -- two services and four installed programs, and a desktop item that couldn't be removed. Took about 15 minutes to figure out where it put everything and another 10 to uninstall it all.

IPod touch won't turn on, charge, iTunes doesn't recognize it, and the hard reset doesn't work

My iPod touch 5th gen died so I put in it the charger. Now even the dead battery screen doesn't come on. iTunes will not recognize it, The hard reset won't work, recovery mode doesn't work. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Safari Restriction Doesn't Work

I have restricted Safari from being used on the iPhone and the app no longer appears as an icon on the phone, however a quick spotlight search will open the app right up. Is there a way to fix this? This seems like a huge oversight to me.

HI,
Try maintenance.
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset.
Could be a 3rd party plugins causing the problem. Go to ~/Library/Internet Plugins. Move any 3rd party plugins to the Trash.
And make sure Safari is not running in Rosetta. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle so it faces down. Where you see Open using Rosetta... make sure that is NOT selected.
Try resetting the PRAM.

Aiport Express dead? Yellow light one, reset doesn't work...

Hello
My Airport Express stopped working a few days ago. I just shows a constant yellow light, resets (incl factory reset) don't work and I can't see it with Airport Utility.
Any ideas?
(latest firmware update)

Welcome to the discussions!
If you have tried the factory default reset several times and continue to see a constant amber light, the Express has likely experienced an internal electrical component failure and will need to be replaced.

Factory Reset doesn't work on Spinning Gears lumia 928

Hello,
Last night i was struck with the Spinning Gears on my Nokia Lumia 928. I researched it a bit to see what i could do to fix it, sadly it didn't help much. most people said to Factory Reset the phone (Up volume, down volume, power, down volume.) But it does absolutely nothing at all. I get no ! when i reset the phone. All it does is show the word Nokia then spinning gears. People also said just reset it a few times and it will work, from wen i started counting i reset it over 30 times and let the gears spin for 8 hours. The phone doesn't charge ether but it will stay on if it is plugged in. Im out of ideas on how to fix this phone, and i rather not wait a few days for them to send me a new one IF they even do send me one.
If anyone has any ideas for me peoples let me know. Even if the idea is, you cant do anything bring it to the store thats fine i just wanna know if theres anything i can do.

I am stuck here. I have had the Lumia 928 for about 2.5-3 months now. I have decided to go back to Android, but want to give the phone to my son. I went to do a Factory Reset and have been stuck on Gears for 2 days. I have let the battery drain, removed the SIM, and did the following from the Nokia Support Site 5-6 times. No luck, can you help?
Step 1
Press and hold power and volume down key.
Phone vibrates (release the keys)
Right after this press and hold the volume down key down
Exclamation mark is shown on the screen (release the volume down key)
Step 2Then input the keys in the following order:
Volume up
Volume down
Power
Volume down
Step 3
The phone will reset and boot up automatically. Please note that this may take several minutes.

Safari 5 doesn't work with my Helpdesk Server "x-msg" problem

I use ManageEngine's ServiceDesk to handle customer problems (hosted on a web server), since upgrading my MacBook to Safari 5 I cannot reply to them via the web interface. I get the following error
Safari can’t open “x-msg://9/SDNotify.do?notifyModule=Request&mode=E-Mail&id=1207&notifyTo=REQREP LY&groupId=0” because Mac OS X doesn’t recognize Internet addresses starting with “x-msg:”.
Does anyone know of a work-around for this whilst I wait for ManageEngine to roll out a fix?
Thanks

Sincs Mavericks is installed, Safari 7 doesn't work.

It doesn't even start, gives immediatly error message. Imagine not ot have an alternative browser. I allready repaired permissions, don't know, what else I can do. Anybody with an idea out there?

What is the error message?
Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
Isolating an issue by using another user account
If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account. Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.
