Safari won't launch, and can't seem to re-install

Think I've got the same problem as Dr. Thunder and Mahamba. First, Safari won't launch, giving an error message stating 'Safari cannot open. Safari cannot open a browser window and may be missing important resources. Try installing Safari again.'
Then, tried to re-install from the Leopard install DVD, Optional installs, and all Leopard apps seemed to install. Restarted and launched Safari, same error message. Went to a different Mac, downloaded the Safari 3.1.2, moved the pkg over via flash thumb drive, and tried to install. Installer gave error message stating I need OS X 10.5.2 or greater, and I'm on 10.5.4.
Any idea what gives?

*Hi atw4, Welcome (Back)* to Apple's Users Help Users Forums.
Try a reinstall of the 10.5.4 Combo Updater. Can't harm and sometimes does wonders.
Good Luck, JP

  • Safari Won't Open and Can't Reinstall

    All of a sudden Safari will not open and ends with the following message:Safari cannot open a browser window and may be missing important resources. Try installing Safari again.I have tried to install it from my original Tiger disk but it starts and then quits saying that there was an error with the install. Firefox works fine.Please help.

    If you want to try reinstalling the original Safari, first you must delete the version that's on your system, as well as the Safari312UpdPPC.pkg file in HD/Library/Receipts. Then insert your Mac OS X install/restore disc and navigate to the Optional Installs folder and open the Optional Installs.mpkg file inside that. You can select a number of different packages to install, including Safari, so check just that item and Install.
    When that's done, you will have Safari 2.0, so then you'll have to use Software Update to update to Safari 3.1.2. After that, try starting Safari to see if it works again.

  • My Safari won't open and Can't find Genieo Files so that may not be the problem

    Safari 8.0.2 update installed today. I got a

    Safari 8.0.2 update installed on my MacBook Pro  wi OS X Yosemite. Now I can't open Safari. I get a message ""Safari Quit Unexpectedly". I see other people having the same problem have been told they have the Genieo Adware installed on their computer. I followed the instructions and did not find any of the Genieo files on my computer. I did have an Installmac folder in my downloads which I deleted. Otherwise, I need assistance on getting my Safari to work again.

  • Safari won't launch, can't send crash report

    hi all,
    i have a 2009 macbook pro running 10.5.8. for several days now safari crashes out while using it. when it does that, i have to force quit the program and relaunch. very often, the browser won't relaunch at all. if i leave it alone for a while, sometimes it relaunches.
    this morning, however, after the browser crashed, the whole system froze. i force quit everything, shut down and restarted, and then shut down normally and restarted again. while the system is fine, safari won't launch at all now. the menu bar comes up, but then times out and i get the pinwheel.
    i really like using safari and have all my bookmarks on the browser which i really need on a daily basis.
    does anyone have any solutions on what i can do? or how to retrieve the bookmarks and port them to firefox?
    thanks.

    thanks for replying!
    here's the report... it's super long. hope it fits.

    Safari won't load and I can't update my software, ie., I get an error message.  What can I do to fix this?

    You can't install Safari 3 on your 10.3.9 OS.
    You must use the DVD installer to re-install the older version of Safari found on it.
    You can update your operating system buy purchasing Tiger (10.4) and get a more modern version of Safari.

    After installing reader 9 sucessfully on the imac it won't open and doesn't seem to be there. I do have 5 installed but it won't work on new files. mac 10.6.8.Help.

    Can you see Reader 9 inside Applications folder? If yes, then launch Reader and then try to open any pdf via File->Open or drag drop on Reader icon in the doc.
    In case you dont find Reader 9 in your Applications folder then you can download and install the latest Reader from the following link: http://get.adobe.com/reader/otherversions/
    thanks,

  • HT203107 Safari won't launch following update. Any fixes?

    Just installed update and Safari won't launch. Any patches or fixes?

    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 the script 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.
    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. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. 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.

    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. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    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, press the key combination control-C or 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, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
    [Process completed]
    to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
    12. When the test is complete, 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 don't necessarily agree with them.

  • Safari won't launch - help!

    Hi. I recently had my Mac sorted out at the Apple Store (the Airport icon disappeared and they removed a corrupt file) but now at home, I can't launch my Safari - either from the dock or the Applications folder. My internet connection is at full strength.
    I updated Safari to 4.0.3 thinking this may rectify the problem, but it hasn't.
    Can anyone help?
    Many Thanks.

    Hi! As of 2 days ago, my Safari won't launch; well,let me be specific: it launches to the first link but then the loading button turns grey and keeps spinning and spinning and nothing happens. I read Raj Oct 3 post and given solutions and have tried doing the same thing. I can't find the file" com.apple.LaunchServices.plist~/Library/Preferences" anywhere using Spotlight.
    I've had my Mac OS X Version 10.5.8 using Safari 4.0.3 since January with no problems until 2 days ago.
    Would really appreciate any suggestions.
    BTW. Have been running VMWare Fusion on my MAC and 2 days ago, that too froze and gave me the response of fatal error, rebooting impossible. Haven't been able to resolve that either. But Safari is more important right now.
    Thank you.

  • Safari won't launch after 3.1.1. download mistake

    safari won't launch after download of 3.1.1 by mistake I only have OS 10.3.9.
    mail won't relaunch either, i downloaded camino it won't launch either, my fire fox works but i can't get to my mail. How do I clean up this mess.

    Mail relies on WebKit for rendering, so it may have problems even after you got rid of the old Safari. I would try download the Mac OS X 10.3.9 Combo Update, and that should update WebKit and everything else for you. It's a 117 MB download, including all the extra languages.
    As for upgrading to 10.4.11, that's a completely new version of Mac OS X compared to your current version. It's faster, has more features, and you can actually run Safari 3.1.1 on it. It's not sold by Apple anymore, but various retailers have unsold copies still available. You might want to check around locally for a "Retail" (boxed) copy, or even on eBay for the same thing. Don't even think about buying a cheap copy for a laptop, since those are specific to those machines; you always want the full boxed copy.

  • Photoshop CS6 won't launch and when it does it's really slow...help?

    Hi,
    So my copy of Photoshop CS6 sometimes won't launch and when it does manage to launch fully, it's really slow. I mean ridiculously slow. The only times when I can get it to run even remotely quick is if I shut down my computer, and then restart it and then start up Photoshop CS6 as the first program. Even then it slows down after a while. (And I only have a firefox browser open usually, never more than a couple of tabs at once, so it's not a bandwidth issue)
    Here are my comp specs:
    Samsung
    Processor:
    AMD A6-3420M APU with
    Radeon (Tm) HD graphics 1.50 ghz
    Installed Memory (RAM) - 4.00 (3.48 usable)
    64 Bit operating System running on Windows 7 home premium, service pack 1
    I also did just recently install the new update Adobe had for Photoshop, so that's up to date.
    It's getting really frustrating! I have another program I'm using in the meantime (Paint tool Sai), but I'd really like to use Photoshop CS6.....
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Make sure you updated the drivers from AMD's website, not Microsoft.
    Make sure you are running the 64 bit version of Photoshop, not 32 bit.
    Disable all third party plugins, and try disabling system utilities (we've seen font managers, antivirus, disk backup software, etc. cause slowdowns due to bugs in those utilities).

  • Syncing iphone and can't seem to transfer audiobooks that i have put in a playlist.  Sync menu doesn't show all playlists.  Help

    syncing iphone and can't seem to transfer audiobooks that i have put in a playlist.  Sync menu doesn't show all playlists.  Help

    I have the same problem with podcast playlists.  When I go to the music window in my iPhone devices section, the playlists I have created on my macbook pro in iTunes do not appear as an option to sync with the iPhone.  I know some web radios streams, like the BBC, won't transfer because of compatibility issues, but the playlists of podcasts that I have created consist entirely of podcasts downloaded from the podcasts section on the iTunes Music Store.  They used to show up and sync properly before I upgraded to OS 5.1.1, but now they don't.
    Does anyone have a fix and am I right in surmising that the cause is a glitch in OS 5.1.1?

  • When I try to open a spreadsheet on my Mac that I worked on with my iPhone, I get "You need a newer version of Numbers to open this spreadsheet." When I go to the App store, it says I already have it. I have v. 2.3 and can't seem to download newer version

    When I try to open a spreadsheet on my Mac that I worked on with my iPhone, I get "You need a newer version of Numbers to open this spreadsheet." When I go to the App store, it says I already have it. I have v. 2.3 and can't seem to download newer version.

    If you are running Mavericks, and the Mac App store says you are up to date, then you have Numbers 3.2 as well as Numbers 2.3. You are getting the "Need a newer version message because your Mac is trying to open the document using Numbers 2.3.
    Launch Numbers 3, then open the document from within that app, or right click/control-click the document and choose Open with Numbers 3.x.

  • Safari won't launch on on iPad - Where to get help?

    As of 7:00 pm last evening (2/16/2013) my Safari won't launch via my iPad. It is not a wireless connection problem as my other devices work just fine and load. I have narrowed it down to Safari just not connecting. Any help or direction would be appreciated. Thanks

  • TS3074 Hello anyone with Windows 7, not sure why having followed instructions above, install of latest version of itunes won't work and can no longer open old version either.  anyone help with this?

    Hello anyone with Windows 7, not sure why having followed instructions above, install of latest version of itunes won't work and can no longer open old version either.  anyone help with this?

    Hi,
    thanks for your reply.
    Yes, except n°1 - empty Temp directory, I had tried/checked all of those.
    I emptied the local temp folder tonight, but it still won't work.
    Please note: the installation doesn't give me any problem. The program was working fine, until at one point *plouf* it stopped working. I can re-install it without any problem, it just crashes when opening.
    \\edit\\ I seem to have located the problem, it's in the library files. If I re-install iTunes without my library, it works fine (though there is no music in it, yet). As soon as I import my library, or replace the My Music\iTunes folder with the old one, it stops working.
