Top Sites won't allow update (Safari 5.1)

I cannot for the life of me add a page to my top sites.  I have two windows open: one is "Top Sites" prepped for editing, the other has the URL of the website I want to add to "Top Sites".  I highlight the desired URL and drag it over the Top Sites page, and nothing happens.  I have unpinned selections on Top Sites, I have tried dropping the URL on those, at the top of the page, at the bottom of the page, in the URL  field at the top of the window (which takes me to the page - bad).  Nothing.  What am I doing wrong?  Or, is it NOT MY FAULT?!

From your Safari menu bar click Safari / Empty Cache.
Restart your Mac.
Launch Safari Try adding a page to Top Sites.
This is for Safari 4 / Top Sites but might be help there you can use >  http://arstechnica.com/apple/guides/2009/02/safari-4-focus-top-sites-browser-in- a-nutshell.ars
I doubt it's your fault.

  • App store says app installed and won't allow update to latest version.

    App store says app installed and won't allow update to latest version.  My Mac has Iworks from a disc but I can't seem to update to the latest version of Number, Keynote or pages in the App store.  The app store identifies the applications as installed but doesn't update them since they were installed from Iworks disc.

    all the ICloud numbers spreadsheet pages are now gone.  How do I get them back?
    Do you mean you were storing the documents in iCloud and now you can't see them from Numbers? If so, you probably need to check to see that iCloud is configured to work with Numbers.
    Here in System Preferences > iCloud make sure 'Documents and Data' is checked:
    And, after clicking 'Options...', make sure that 'Numbers.app' is checked.
    You should be able to see the documents in iCloud when you go up to the title bar at the top of the screen and choose 'iCloud' in the 'Where:' dropdown:

  • Safari Top Sites thumbnail images not updating automatically?

    is it happening just with me, or the automatic update of the Top Sites thumbnail images is not working anymore?

    It is intentional. When on the Top Sites view, hit Command+R to refresh the images. Supposedly this was done because the previews don't do a good enough job of detecting weird login pages and wifi password pages.
    Personally, I'd like it to have an option to go back to updating the images on its own again.

  • My EKM Powershot Site won't open in Safari

    I have an iMac.  It is running OS X Yosemite version 10.10.2.  I have an internet website with EKM Powershop.  It worked fine until a few weeks ago.  Then, at some times during the day it said I couldn't log in because of a problem with cookies but at other times it was ok.  Now I get the same message all the time and can't log in at all.  If I use Chrome it is ok but it is easier for my work if I have it open on both Safari and Chrome.  I haven't changed anything with my cookies and that doesn't seem to actually be the problem.  Can anyone help?

  • Favicon on MobileMe web site won't display with Safari - OK with Firefox

    I have a web site published to MobileME using iWeb - I have added a favicon and updated HTML accordingly. Now after trying every combination of code and searching the Safari, iWeb and MobileMe forums I cannot figure out why my favicon will not display using Safari but will with just about every other browser (Firefox, IE, Netscape are the ones I've tried on a Windows PC - also won't dispaly using Safari for Windows). Any ideas???
    I've put the favicon file in the web.me.com/pat.schafer/web/sites folder as well as the web.me.com/pat.schafer/web/sites/sitename folder and added the HTML ref code to every html file - I'm going crazy.

    Hi Certified - tried your tips to no avail. I'm beginning to think it's some interaction (bug??) when using a site published to MobileMe (and iWeb?) and Safari. Note I also tried using Windows Safari on a PC which had never viewed the site and it still showed the Apple favico but as previously stated Firefox, and IE on this PC did show my favicon. (I have not tried to load Firefox on my iMac but may try this as well.) I'd try the Apple Support Center but I don't hold up much hope of their being able to assist - I was at the Genius Bar yesterday in the Sydney shop on another matter (broken mouse) and asked about this favicon issue and was told it was beyond the scope of what they can assist with.
    Hello Old Toad - thanks anyway for the tip on the OVI slideshow - also thanks to your earlier tips on using OVI I did know about the trick of using a transparent shape but had got around to doing this - I'm still in the early stages of learning using iWeb ... the site in question is just a bit of a "sandbox". In fact I'm pretty much on my way to a bookshop to get a book an HTML and other web design technologies - clearly one must really understand the underlying technology to make these things work.

  • Top sites and video problems with Safari 4.0 and Snow Leopard

    Since installing Snow Leopard, I've had problems with Safari 4.0. My Top Sites page doesn't load anymore, I get a blank white page. Also, video tutorials from Apple's own site will not display the video. I hear the audio portion but do not get video. When I load the same pages in Firefox, they run as they are supposed to. In Leopard, everything was fine. Any help resolving these issues would be appreciated.

    Nevermind. After restarting a couple of times, it worked itself out.

  • Top sites will not save in Safari

    I've tried to change a couple of my top sites in Safari. I'll pin them as permanent, but if I quit safari or restart my computer a couple of sites will be replaced. I've tried to troubleshoot the problem through some info in the discussion board, but have not had any luck. I was able to clear out all of my top sites by deleting the topsite.plsit file and resaved all of the top sites I wanted. Yet, I'm still having this issue. Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    Safari
    Click Safari in the menu bar and select "Reset Safari".
    In the window that opens up select "Top Sites" and click "Reset" button at the bottom.
    Best.

  • Apple home page and some other sites won't load via Safari.

    Apple home page (and other sites) will not open in Safari.  Randomly, others will, especially those saved as bookmarks.  I've reset Safari, cleared the cache, verified the DNS - no luck.  Wifi works fine for other devices.  Mac OS 10.5.8/Safari 5.0.6.  Any suggestions?

    Safari/Preferences/Advanced - enable the Develop menu, then go there and Empty Caches. Quit/reopen Safari and test. Then try Safari/History/Show History and delete all history items.  Quit/reopen Safari and test. You can also try try Safari/Clear History and Web Site Data. The down side is it clears all cookies.Doing this may cause some sites to no longer recognize your computer as one that has visited the web site.

  • Is anyone having problems with trail sites are not allowing updates under the new rendering engine.

    My Trial sites are NOT saving edits made in multiple areas.
    Examples
    Products - Anything I try to do in the product description window says it has updated but then reverts back to what it was originally.
    Web pages - Same for anything in the page updates in the page content window.
    Product Attributes wont update.
    It appears I can add new things, but no edits work.
    All say they are saved then revert back on screen to previous version.
    It is only happening on my trial sites, which has been upgraded to the new liquid engine as far as I can tell as my live sites are fine. (or not converted yet)
    I can do some updates via dreamweaver and FTP.
    Thanks
    Melissa

    Thanks
    I have contacted support and it appears to be only an issue with IE as works in Firefox.
    They are saying it is an issue with my PC / Browser as they cannot recreate it - 
    I have reset all IE back to standard settings.
    My question is if it were only an issue with my browser, why does it work on the live sites and the sites not yet transitioned.

  • Help! Apple ID won't allow update of Apps

    My daughter's iPad will not allow me to update several of her apps. When I try to update them it will not recognize my Apple ID. I can download a new app from the App Store without an issue. I deleted the account and reloaded it without a problem. Des anyone have an idea what's going on and how can I fix this issue.
    Thanks in advance,
    Bob

    Contact iTunes store support. Or the game developer. If the compromised account was used to make in app purchases in the game that were reversed, the developer may refuse to permit you to purchase from in the app using that account.

  • Aperture won't allow update vault

    Hi johnmyself, cor-el has covered Flash. For the other two:
    * Adobe ReaderAdobe PDF Plug-In For Firefox and Netscape - because Adobe doesn't support Reader XI on Vista, you're stuck with the Reader X series and corresponding plugin 10. Mozilla's plugin check site only considered the current plugin 11 series to be up-to-date, so you'll have to rely on Adobe to keep you on the latest Reader X and plugin 10. You can use Help > Check for Updates in Adobe Reader X to watch for updates.
    * Adobe Flash PlayerRealNetworks(tm) RealDownloader PepperFlashVideoShim Plug-In - this is something supplied by RealDownloader and most likely would be updated when you update that software.

  • Flash site won't open on safari

    My site works on every browser except Safari for 2 days now. Before it worked perfectly. I tried many different computers and systematically it doesn't open any more. The page charges and stays white. On Explorer, Firefox and others it works normally.

    Can anyone open this on Safari????
    Any suggestions?
    thank you

    G4   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    This URL
    http://www.joelcadiou.com/
    Calls this URL
    http://webamab.free.fr/
    Which embeds this Flash file
    http://webamab.free.fr/index.swf
    The HTML employed is very poor however I don't think this is the reason Safari shows a blank page. I'm wondering if either Safari or the Flash Player plug-in for Safari has determined a security risk since the main domain of the site is different to the domain of the flash movie. Technically speaking Safari has employed the correct behaviour since the HTML code does not specify allowDomain "xyz" .

  • IWeb site won't load in Safari

    I just published a site: http://web.me.com/patrickfifth/Epigram/index.html
    It gets about 10% loaded and stops. It happens after I make a change and upload to mobile me. I have gone into mobile me and deleted the entire site and re uploaded and that works but I make constant changes to these sites and shouldn't have to do this.
    Any ideas, is it a bug?
    Thanks, Patrick

    OK, I'll try that. It begs the question though, why not index? That's been the go to name since web began. !?!
    Yes, but iWeb creates its own index.html files independently of whatever the user names his pages, so you could wind up with a conflict. Whether this is causing your issue I don't know, but renaming your top page is worth a try.
