Safari update need to disable feature

Ever since I got the latest safari update, when I start typing a domain to visit safari brings up suggestive sites to visit as I type and I keep getting directed to different places unless I type the entire domain name. How can I turn this feature OFF?

HI,
You can turn on Private Browsing for a temporary work around. From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Private Browsing.
You'll see a pop up dialog explaining exactly what Private Browsing does.

Safari 2.0.4 says I need to install Safari update 1.3.2

I have an I-Mac G-5
I am installing H&R Block Tax Cut program. It tells me that I need to install Safari update 1.3.2 to use Tax Cut online support. Although I already have Safari 2.0.4, I tried to install Safari update 1.3.1 any way. I tried installing 1.3.1 before installing 1.3.2 and I got this message from Safari.
"You cannot install Safari Update 1.3.1 on this volume. This software requires OS X 10.3.9"
I already have OS X 10.4.8 so I don't know why it will not let me install the Safari update. Isn't the higher version number the latest version?

Need to disable adobe updater in reader 10

We deploy adobe reader using the MSI in Group Policy. We just pushed out Reader X. We also push out updates the same way
as our users do not have admin rights. We need to disable automatic updating and checking for updates. The Customization Wizzard is not available for Reader X yet and the adm file we have for 9 does not seem to work on X. Anyone have a solution?

Can you simply set registry using your deployment tools?

I now use the TenFourFox browser on our remaining PowerPC Macs including a G4 PowerBook. Web sites see it as a newer version of FireFox tha and G4 can support and you get much better compatibility. Wikipedia info/history here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TenFourFox
The TenFourFox official site and download is here:

Downside: the last version of TFF that supports plug-ins was V17 so current versions won't play Flash animations. Even when TFF played Flash, the old G-series Mac processors were struggling with modern web video content, so you are not losing much.
If you must have smooth-playing web video, you'll need a new computer, as very little web video content is optimized for our PowerPC processors on old Macs.

Disabled Features

I am trying to install a new printer that I bought last year (because it matches the 3 other printeres I have). I just recently tried to download the drivers from the disk that came with the printer. I realize that the drivers needed to be updated, so I downloaded the drivers from HP website for my HP Officejet Pro 8600.
Issue 1. I keep getting a message during the download that states "Disabled Features- an adminstrator has disabled some features of the selected device. For more information, check with an adminstrator o rconsult the device documentation."
Issue 2. After finishing the install, and attempting to print, I get blank spacing where words should be printed, intermittently throughout the whole document.
Question- Is this caused by the "disabled feature" warning? If so, how do I correct it? If not caused by the "Disabled Features" warning, how do I fix it?
(FYI: I have uninstalled, and then reinstalled the drivers from the HP website 2x already, and attempted to reinstall from the disk that came with the printer)

Hi there @scooter7381 ,
Welcome to the forums!
I would like to help with the printer and printing issues you're facing with your Officejet 8600 connected to your Mac running 10.9.
I would like to know the following:
At which point of the installation do you see the message "Disabled Features, an administrator has disabled some features of the selected device", during the download, before the install starts, during, or at the end, for example?
How are you connecting the printer to your Mac (USB, Wireless, Ethernet)?
Can you print a quality page and let me know if there was an issue with the quality of the page or if it printed? (Select Setup, Reports, Print Quality Report)
Include any steps you have tried as well.
Have a great weekend

Mail Viewing Options Gone. I need to DISABLE automatically marking a message as read!

In Lion, the Mail Viewing options to disable automatically marking a viewed message as read are gone! I absolutely NEED to disable automatically marking a viewed message as read! How can I disable this if the option isn't present? Is there a workaround?

Ok...I take part of what I said back. It was MailActOn by InDev which allowed me to not automatically have a message marked as read. See http://indev.ca/MailActOn.html for more info.
Apparently the version I had loaded wasn't compatible with Lion Mail.app. Since updating it, I know have this feature again.

Safari update to 5.1.5, on snow leopard, now safari won't open any web page.

Just installed Safari update to 5.1.5 and now Safari won't load any web page. Running snow leopard on an iMac. How do I fix, or revert to previous version of Safari that did work, keeping in mind, can't access internet on that computer since Safari won't load a web page (Firefox, Chrome, Opera have never worked on that computer, although Firefox worked fine until I upgraded OS to snow leopard).

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 a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
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(s)?
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 in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. 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:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
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.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
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.

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, 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. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is 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.

Safari Update Problems

Hi
I have tried to run software update on my dual core G5 running OS X 10.5.7 and the installer hangs - it gets to the starry screen and hangs during 'Configuring installation'. I also tried downloading the full version of Safari 4.0.2Leo from apple and installing that - but it hangs at the same point (but doesn't go to the starry screen)
An help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Ben

There are no guarantees, but following this procedure when installing updates and upgrades on your Mac, or even re-installing them, will go a long way towards avoiding unpleasant after effects and ‘post-update stress disorder’.
It is also worth noting that it is an extreme rarity for updates to cause upsets to your system, as they have all been extensively beta-tested, but they may well reveal pre-existing ones, particularly those of which you may have been unaware. If you are actually aware of any glitches, make sure they are fixed before proceeding further.
So before you do anything else:
If you can, make a full backup first to an external hard disk. Ideally you should always have a bootable clone of your system that enables you to revert to the previous pre-update state.
Turn off sleep mode for both screen and hard disk.
Disconnect all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
1. Repair Permissions (in Disk Utility)
2. Verify the state of your hard disk using Disk Utility. If any faults are reported, restart from your install disk (holding down the C key), go to Disk Utility, and repair your startup disk. Restart again to get back to your startup disk.
At least you can now be reasonably certain that your system does not contain any obvious faults that might cause an update/upgrade to fail.
3. Download the correct version of the COMBO update from the Apple download site.
The Combo updater of Leopard 10.5.7 can be found here:
http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_5_7_ComboUpdate
If you prefer to download updates via Software Update in the Apple menu (which would ensure that the correct version for your Mac was being downloaded), it is not recommended to allow SU to install major (or even minor) updates automatically. Set Software Update to just download the updater without immediately installing it. There is always the possibility that the combined download and install (which can be a lengthy process) might be interrupted by a power outage or your cat walking across the keyboard, and an interrupted install will almost certainly cause havoc. Once it is downloaded, you can install at a time that suits you. You should make a backup copy of the updater on a CD in case you ever need a reinstall.
Full details about the 10.5.7 update here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3397
More information on using Software Updater here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24901?viewlocale=en_US
Using the Combo updater ensures that all system files changed since the original 10.4.0 are included, and any that may have been missed out or subsequently damaged will be repaired. The Delta updater, although a temptingly smaller download, only takes you from the previous version to the new one, i.e. for example from 10.5.5 to 10.5.6. Software Update will generally download the Delta updater only. The preferable Combo updater needs to be downloaded from Apple's download site.
Now proceed as follows:
4. Close all applications.
5. Unplug all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
6. Install the update/upgrade. Do not under any circumstances interrupt this procedure. Do not do anything else on your computer while it is installing. Be patient.
7. When it ask for a restart to complete the installation, click restart. This can take longer than normal, there are probably thousands of files to overwrite and place in the correct location. Do nothing while this is going on.
8. Once your Mac is awake, repair permissions again, and you should be good to go!
If your Mac seems slightly sluggish or ‘different’, perform a second restart. It can’t hurt and is sometimes efficacious!
9. Open a few of your most used applications and check that all is OK. In this connection please remember that not all manufacturers of third party applications and plug-ins, add-ons, haxies etc, will have had time to do any necessary rewrites to their software to make them compliant with the latest version of your operating system. Give them a weeks or two while you regularly check their websites for updates. This applies particularly to plug-ins for Safari 3.
N.B. Do not attempt to install two different updates at the same time as each may have different routines and requirements. Follow the above recommendations for each update in turn.
Lastly, Apple's own article on the subject of Software Update may also be useful reading:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106695
If you are updating Safari (or just have):
Input Managers from third parties can do as much harm as good. They use a security loophole to reach right into your applications' code and change that code as the application starts up. If you have installed an OS update and Safari is crashing, the very first thing to do is clear out your InputManagers folders (both in your own Library and in the top-level /Library), log out and log back in, and try again.
So, disable all third party add-ons before updating Safari, as they may not have been updated yet for the new version. Add them back one by one. If something goes awry, remove it again and check on the software manufacturer's website for news of an update to match your version of Safari.
Most errors reported here after an update are due to an unrepaired or undetected inherent fault in the system, and/or a third party add-on.
Additional tips on software installation here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106692
To reiterate, Input Managers reach right into an application and alter its code. This puts the behavior of the affected application outside the control and responsibility of its developers: a recipe for problems. That's not to say that issues absolutely will ensue as a result of Input Managers, but you, as a user, must decide. If the functionality of a specific Input Manager or set thereof is really important to you, you may well choose to assume the associated risk.
Again, the advice is to remove all Input Managers from the following directories:
• /Library/InputManagers
• ~/Library/InputManagers
especially prior to system updates (they can always be added back one-by-one later).
