Safari Top Sites doesn't work (on my system at least)

Open a blank tab or window in Safari ... You get a browser window blank except for a grey history search box in the bottom right corner ... Try clicking the 'Top Sites' icon in the toolbar, and nothing happens (still the blank window with the search box)
Anyone else seeing this?

I'm seeing the same problem. Even though I've visited a few sites now, Top Sites is still, upon launch, an empty page with a search box at the bottom. As a matter of fact, clicking randomly in the blank, white area will launch a page, which implies that the top sites are "there" only not rendering. When I have a web page open (such as this one) and click on History > Show Top Sites, the page I'm currently viewing remains on the screen but its features, such as links, become unclickable. The "Search" box appears at the bottom of the page, rendered on top of the page I was viewing.
This is definitely more than an issue of a flushed cache.

There appears to be an object (probably an empty text frame) on top obscuring most (all?) of the menu. The object has no stroke or fill. IE up through 10 have a bug that allows mouse events to pass through objects that have no fill or stroke (that's contrary to the HTML spec and not how other browsers work).
Remove the empty object and everything should work as expected.

An answer will require more specific information of the problems you are experiencing Mpittas2.
In general, if you installed any third party anti-virus utilities, get rid of them. They can cause problems like this.
There is no need to post your question multiple times. If you don't get an answer right away give it some time, a few hours at least, and please deselect your caps lock key. This will increase the likelihood of receiving competent assistance.

Safari "Top Sites" Website thumbnails not populating or staying stationary.

I am running Safari 5.1.7 on a PC running Windows 7 and I am wondering if Safari "Top Sites" will keep those thumb nail pages stationary and obey the order I am trying to keep them. Also, having issue with the Website thumnails are not populating. Help!

I, as well, have been experiencing the exact problem that both, drpilgrim60 and iainnicol have been experiencing! I am totally frustrated with this whole thing!!!! I have searched and searched the web for a solution, but to no avail! I decided to start using Safari because Firefox sold out to MicroSoft and now force their users to allow bing on the browser, which is the worst search engine on earth. I couldn't get rid of it from my browser, and I still can't.
I am so surprised that Apple has this discussion board yet has not said anything about the glitch with their program. Do they care? I would like to think so. I have been a Mac man ever since the Mac SE30, and will always use a MAC, unfortunately, my new Mac had died and I have had to use a PC (Piece of C---) for several months now. I hope that Apple addresses this issue, as soon as possible, on this thread. If not I will have to find another web browser to use. Does anyone have any other suggestions for a browser other than Chrome and Internet Explorer?

I am trying to download a file from Safari. It doesn't work.

I am trying to download a file from Safari. It doesn't work. It always comes up with a notification saying, 'Safari could not download this file'. Why does it do that? More importantly, what should I do? how do I download it?
Thanks to the users who reply to this. It will help me a lot.

What type of file is it?
If safari can't natively open the file, or there is no App installed thatr can, it won't download.

My Safari Top Sites Page Flashing

My Safari Top Sites page suddenly started flashing and won't load properly but all other pages and sites seem to be okay. Everything is updated and the disk is fine.

Open the Finder. Click Go from the Finder menu bar then click Go to Folder.
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Safari
Click Go the move the TopSites.plist file from the Safari folder to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari. Check TopSites.

Firefox stopped updating a while ago for unknown reason;now stuck at v 2.0.0.20-- trying to manually update from your site doesn't work.

Firefox stopped updating a while (couple of years) ago for some unknown reason. The button is checked for automatic updates. It was a while before I noticed, so now I've been stuck at v 2.0.0.20 for some time, and trying to manually update from your site doesn't work.
No update available will work, since I missed some. I can't even see what most of the buttons are on these pages of your site. Do I need to reinstall Firefox, as some people have suggested to me, and if so, how do I go about doing that? I'm not particularly computer program savvy.
Thanks,
Taav

Which version of Mac OS are you running?<br />
Is that a OS X 10.2 or 10.3 version?<br />
The last Firefox version that works on OS X 10.2 and 10.3 is 2.0.0.20.
*https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/2.0.0.20/mac/en-US/
The last Firefox version that runs on Mac OS X 10.4 is Firefox 3.6.28.
*https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/latest-3.6/
*http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/3.6.28/system-requirements/
Current Firefox versions require a Mac with an Intel processor and OS X 10.6 (Firefox 16 runs on Intel Mac OS X 10.5).
*http://www.mozilla.org/firefox/23.0/system-requirements/
For an unofficial Firefox 17.0.8 ESR compatible version that runs on a PowerPC Mac with OS X 10.4.11 or OS X 10.5.8 you can look at TenFourFox.

Hi candy, glad that you found that Shockwave Flash Object, it works with the Flash files and is very important
The NPSWF files that you said are not there, those are for the Firefox browser or Chrome or some other browser. If you use Firefox and want the Flash Player for that, then close all of your browsers so you are only looking at your Desktop.
Click on this Flash Player Installer for Firefox and SAVE it to your Desktop. Then RUN it from your Desktop, and after it is finished Installing, Restart your computer.
Then Using Firefox go to the plug-ins and find a SWF vs 10.0.45.2 and make sure it is Enabled. This is just like the Shockwave Flash Object for Internet Explorer, but it is the one that works with Firefox.
Let me know if that is what you wanted to do. If you don't use Firefox, but Chrome or another browser, then this will work for that one also.
If you don't use another browser, then don't do any of this. I just thot maybe you did and that is why you were concerned that the NPSWF files were not there.
Thanks,

After i empty trash (the secure empty doesn't work either), the system does not reclaim the free space.

After i empty trash (the secure empty doesn't work either), the system does not reclaim the free space.
I need to run the erase free space option from the disk utility every time...which is really annoying and time consuming.
Any ideas how to solve this?
Thanks in advance =)

There is a thing in iPhoto whereby the first time you delete a photo it asks if you want to delete or just remove from the album, something like that. Unfortunately it is one of these things with a "don't ask me again" checkbox. Now, "deleting" photos only removes them from the album they are in. To actually trash them I must then go to "all photos" and find them, to send them to the trash. To help find them, what I do is rename them zzz or something, so sorting them will get them to the bottom of my collection. Just maybe your photos are still lurking around?

Safari 6 Top Sites doesn't update

In the previous version of Safari (5), under OS X Lion, the "Top Sites" thumbnails would be flagged with a checkmark when those pages had been updated. In Version 6, under OS X Mountain Lion, none of the "Top Sites" are being flagged when the pages have been updated. I don't see an option under Safari preferences to enable/disable the "Updated" indicator. Any suggestions for restoring this feature are greatly appreciated.
And, yes, I deleted the Safari plist file from ~/Library/Safari, and it did not make any difference.

If you dig into the Ressource folder in Safari's 6 Contents folder, you will find a .png named TopSitesUpdatedPageCurl, which is that familiar Update Star with its blue background.
Since this png is still to be found in Safari 6's innards, I venture to say that the Update Stars not showing in the Top Sites page is due to a bug, rather than a decision of Apple's to nuke this feature.
But who knows ?!

Safari for Mavericks doesn't work since upgrade.

Since I did an 'all upgrade' mid-June 2014, Safari is too annoying to use. It just gives me the Top Site pages every time I open, won't load my web archive pages or anything else. (It will load a site if I've closed it as a 'faorced quit and reopened - and then can sometimes get it to do an 'open in new tab' from the reading list only if online, otherwise only does 'top sites'. It All started when I realised it wasn't letting me see any of my downloaded reading lists (watched the download progress so know it did that). I've tried changing all sorts of things (just about everything once then checking ou and in again includng clearing cache etc. in preferences but basically it doesn't accept anything and just defaults back no matter what!
Gave up and using Firefox for this but would much prefer to use Safari if it will only work as it used to - maybe that alway meant it Never let me access reading list offline?

Back up all data.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
Step 1
If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags nouchg,nouappnd {} + -exec chown $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -N {} + -type d -exec chmod +x {} + 2>&-
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

Safari Top Sites Blue Stars Missing

As of yesterday, Top Sites no longer shows the little blue stars when a page is updated. I can force them to appear if I quit Safari and restart it, but they won't update on their own as they used to periodically, even though the thumbnails still update. I tried using time machine to replace the app file and preferences from several days ago, but this hasn't solved the problem. Any ideas?

Hey guys.
Need to join the desperate team. My Top sites wont allow any other manually added site - it will get deleted right after i restart safari.
I have checked the other forums where were suggestion for binning the com.apple.safari and top sites plist - doesn't work. Standard cleaning procedure like emptying cash, reseting safari or not too standard binning some preferences files - not working. None of them is in banned sites - i binned it also
I need to add its a new thing because it was working until last week. Maybe some updates could damage something, though i can remember any new updates in last two weeks. Please be geeks, find the answare, it was very cool feature and its pitty its not working.

Safari Top Sites Loaded **** Image

I was shocked this morning when I opened a new tab and got a full screen pornographic image lasting less than a second prior to top sites being loaded. I was unable to re-create this occurrence. I use this laptop for work and family purposes, it is a clean machine. I leave my MB on over night with safari opened. I have ClamX AV Sentry running as well. Has anyone experienced this today, ever? I reported this as a bug to apple. Is it possible that top sites got hacked?
Thank you,

Hi Dr. Data
I don't use topsites... but the images are stored in Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Webpage Previews/
The rogue image may not be in there, since regardless of source, topsites doesn't ordinarily display any one item full screen, so far as I know.... but it's a start.
