Trouble with safari after updating SL 10.6.8

I updated my OS last night to 10.6.8  and today, in Safari I find that I cannot view amazon.com  When I open a page, much of it is blank.  Anyone else having trouble with amazon after updating to 10.6.8?

(This is a copy of my post in this thread.)
I updated to 10.6.8 too, was suddenly unable to print to my before perfectly working printer (an HP Color LaserJet CP1515n hooked up to an AirPort Express), and started scouring the web for solutions. The more I tried, the more disappointed and frustrated I became. Then I came here, read about a possible solution in this very thread (the disk image 'Repair10.6.8.dmg') and became hopeful again.
But alas...
Sadly, this isn't working for me at all. I ran the script that supposedly fixes the print problems introduced in 10.6.8, but the print jobs still all pause the printer and fail with a 'broken pipe' error. It has nothing to do with the USB cable, as I can print just fine with the printer directly hooked up to my Mac wit that very same cable. I reinstalled the drivers, updated my printer's firmware, ran the repair script twice just to be sure, reset the printing system, even deleted all preference files with 'hp' in the name and having to do with printing, restarted my Mac. All with no result.
Man, this is so frustrating! Anybody with any other suggestions or possible solutions?

  • Has anyone had trouble with safari after updating to ios 8 on ipad

    I am having trouble viewing a web page through safari after updating to ios 8 on my ipad.  On the left side of my screen is a list of my favorites leaving only 3/4 of the screen to view a web page.  Before the ios 8 update when I clicked on the safari icon it took me to a full screen view of my favorites with icons.

    Same issue here, seems to be fine on text based websites, but any with images on struggle to load.
    im on 100mb fibre, and all sites work fone on other devices, just my iPad since upgrading
    its loads the site slowly, displays about 3/4 of the page once loaded

  • Great problems with Safari after update to IOS 5

    Hallo,
    for a few days I have updatet my iPad 2 from IOS 4 to IOS 5. Now after the update the navigation under Safari on websites with DHTML-navigation doesn´t works. Take a look for example on wepages like this:
    http://www.firstlex.de  or  http://www.ischeidung.de .
    You will see, that the horizontal-navigation opens only for fewer as a second and it is not possible to open the navigation-submenus!
    With Safari under IOS 4 it works perfectly! The navigation-submenus stands still and it was possible to open the navigation-submenu that you want with to klicks on it. Allthough it is possible to open the sub-submenus under IOS 4, but now not more under IOS 5 !
    Did anybody have a solution for this problem???
    Thank you for replys!
    Greetings Mikeam13

    For Safari crashing then you could try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data (Clear Cache on iOS 4) and also Clear History
    If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    Some people have also suggested turning off iCloud on the iPad
    In terms of the thumbnails, then Safari on iOS 5 uses tabbed browsing and you can't go back to thumbnails. You can try leaving feedback and maybe in a future update we'll get the option : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

  • TS1702 Anybody having trouble with apps after update to iOS 6.1.3?

    After update to iOS 6.1.3 I received update to accu weather and temple run 2. Now both of these apps are not responding. Anyone else having the same problem?

    Mail app crashed after update. Went by apple store and they determined it was my gmail account. Deleted gmail and now mail works. Also had to delete my work gmail on the exchange server. Exchange works now but I still can't use my personal gmail.

  • Has anyone had trouble with safari after having their hard drive replaced?

    I received an email about the recall on hard drives for the iMacs and took it to my local apple store to have it replaced.  I brought it home today and started it up to find safari will not open.  Whenever I try to use safari it brings up a prompt saying safari quit unexpectedly and I can either click "ok" or "reopen". When I click "reopen" it only brings back the same prompt.
    I called the apple store and they redirected me to the apple phone support number.  Apple phone support would not let me speak with someone without paying twenty dollars.  I am not about to pay for problems caused by apple's faulty parts.  I called the store back and I am currently waiting to hear back from a manager.
    Any trouble shooting ideas would be much appreciated!!!

    I had my HD replaced under the recall program. I am running 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.7 on a 2.8GHz iMac.
    I haven't noticed any significantly different behavior of Safari since having my HD replaced and using Time Machine to restore my data. The only thing I've run across in about 2 weeks is that Safari's Preferences panel takes a bit longer to load than I remember.
    One thing you can try is launching Safari from your computer's main Applications folder. If it still crashes, you can also try downloadng a fresh copy here: http://www.apple.com/support/safari/
    Have you ever checked out Firefox? I personally like it better than Safari because it offers more security options, such as greater control over cookies, and supports many useful privacy and security plugins.

  • Java not loading with Safari after updates

    Recently, following security updates, Java applets that have
    previously functioned fine do not any more. This is true for
    Safari 2.0.3 (and in fact for Firefox 1.5); however, the applets
    do load and function with Opera 5.
    Looking at the Installed Plug-Ins list in Safari shows
    Java 1.3.1 Plug-in (CFM) — from file “Java Applet Plugin Enabler”.
    Java Switchable Plug-in (Cocoa) — from file “JavaPluginCocoa.bundle”
    Java 1.3.1 Plug-in — from file “Java Applet.plugin”
    What is odd to me is that I have done the Software updates for
    Java 1.4.2 and for Java 5.0. In addition in
    /Applications/Utilities/Java/
    we find, amongst other things,
    /Applications/Utilities/Java/J2SE 5.0/Java Cache Viewer.app:
    /Applications/Utilities/Java/J2SE 5.0/Java Preferences.app:
    /Applications/Utilities/Java/Java 1.3.1 Plugin Settings.app
    /Applications/Utilities/Java/Java 1.4.2 Plugin Settings.applist
    I have run all three settings applications; set them I hope
    correctly; and had no satisfaction. None of the three caches shows
    any content now.
    I have recently removed ~/Library/Caches/Java* anyway.
    I have deleted and reinstalled Safari from the distribution disc.
    I have updated it (and whatever else gets treated at that time) with
    the 10.4.6 Combo Updater. I've installed the Java updates 1.4.2 and
    1.5 (i.e. J2SE 5.0) separately too. Actually I've carried out such steps
    as mentioned more than once.
    All the above to no avail. Java applets just don't load any more. Equally
    annoying is that I have no mental picture of what ought to be
    happening, nor any clue as to where to acquire one.
    Please, could anyone help with the practical aspect of getting the
    applets going again?
    As well, I would much appreciate being pointed to any good
    explanations of what ought to be going on.
    iMac 4,1; Mac OS X (10.4.6)  
    Safari 2.0.3; Java 1.3.1; Java 1.4.2; J2SE 5.0

    Indeed I did the installations in a good order, and the applets were in
    no way incompatible with the latest Java. However, as a result
    of the update, or in some way or other that I am unaware of (including
    the possibility that I did it myself, but had forgotten it) I was running
    Safari 2.0.3 under Rosetta. Apparently this is 'well known' to stop the Java
    applet service. I did not know this, and I found the possibility by
    serendipity from a search on the discussion forums for 'Safari and
    Java applet'.
    The message that was key for me was
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1967571&#1967571
    where it was remarked
    "The problem was that I was running Safari under - Rosetta. Turning off Rosetta made the problem go away."
    So ignorant was I of what this meant that I floundered about a bit,
    getting all the advertising hype about how wonderful Rosetta would
    be or was, before I got the tip from my own machine's Help that I could
    turn it off by unchecking a box in the GetInfo dialogue box for a program.
    Indeed I found that 'Open using Rosetta' was checked for Safari. Removing
    the Rosetta requirements means Java applets run again for me.
    I don't see the Java plugins 1.4.2 and 1.5 in the
    'Safari>Help>Installed Plug-Ins'
    window where the 1.3.1 version appeared before. But I do have
    a Java Console window and it mentions 1.4.2, which I selected as
    preferred in complying with the last suggestion offered me.
    I note with interest that the last thing I did before the penny finally
    dropped was to get the latest version of WebKit and try that. Java
    applets do not work there, and Rosetta requirements have never been
    On!
    I suppose I can now turn to getting Firefox working with Java applets.
    It still does not: there is no special indication of this except that the
    area where the applet output should be is left blank.
    SO: If applets don't work, check early that you haven't selected
    'Open using Rosetta' for the program Safari. It might be the easy
    answer to the problem.

  • Is anyone else having memory issues with Safari after updating to 10.4.7

    Safari appears to be using to much memory.
    345 Safari xxxxxx 0.10 9 317.80 MB 703.39 MB Intel
    I usually keep the program open and the computer running. However, it gets like this in under a day. This just started to happen since I update to 10.4.7.
    Using Mac OS X 10.4.7 (8J2135)
    I am curious if anyone else is having this issue or if anyone knows a work around.

    I believe that I have found the issue. The issue appears to be the Flip4Mac Universal Beta. It had worked fine under 10.4.6 as far as memory goes but must have an issue with 10.4.7. I uninstalled Flip4Mac and memory went back to normal range.

  • Iphone 5 troubles with charging after update

    I have been using my iphone 5 for quite a while now.  Never had a single problem charging it.  I could plug it in anywhere, and it would charge.  I did the last update to 6.1.2 and it quite charging.  The computer that I always updated it to and charged it from, stopped charging it.  Tried all the different USB ports to no avail.  It does however, sync with the computer, but wil not charge.  Plugged it into another computer, and it worked just fine.  Brought in another computer, and it worked fine again.  Plugged it back into the main computer and nothing.  Took it home that night, plugged it into the wall and it charged.  Plugged it into a battery pack, and got nothing.  This is very troublesome to me.  Can anyone help?

    Hey Lora Claypool,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues making phone calls with your iPhone 5. The following resource may provide a solution:

  • Trouble with Email after Update - Help - No Incoming Mail Server

    I updated my iPad 2 to the new IOS 5 software and have been unable to use the mail function.  I have tried deleting the account re-installing, turning on and off the iPad, etc. but it always prompts me with the same message;
    The IMAP server, "apple.imap.mail.yahoo.com" is not responding.  Check your network connection and that you entered hte correct information int eh "Incoming Mail Server" field.
    All the rest of the Network functions seem to be working correctly.  One additional detail - for some reason it does not seem that the "Incoming Mail Server" field downloaded during the update because there are no options (or maybe I do not know how to get to it) on how to change the incoming mail server information.  This is true for both my iPad and iPhone 4. 
    Any suggestions or help?

  • Problems with SAFARI after Update to LION

    Hi! Since I´ve installed LION, my SAFARI won´t work. I can see the TOP SITES, but as soon as I switch to the normal window, a strange report shows over a grey display?!?

    Sounds like a kernel panic, but the paucity of details precludes making a sound assessment. See
    What is a kernel panic,

    Has anyone else been having trouble with safari ever since the update? I have restarted several times, it still doesn't work.

    Greetings Blueleoapple,
    After reading your post, it sounds like you are experiencing an error with Safari. You may want to consider resetting your device, which is different from restarting. This article provides detailed instructions for Restarting, and Reseting:
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    How to restart
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears.
    Drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
    After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.
    How to reset
    You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • Trouble with Safari - it keeps shutting down - all because I tried to get rid of MacKeeper

    trouble with Safari - it keeps shutting down - all because I tried to get rid of MacKeeper ad - after I install what I thought was an update since I already had MacKeeper, it would not allow me to continue without buying the new one. Make a long story short I switch to Firefox and deleted as much as I could of Safari (files, preferences etc) Now I'm at OS Yosemite X 10.10.2 and would like to get Safari up and running again - I've searched for Adware in applications etc but could not find it. Found what to do from the community, but before I go that route...Do I have to know where or if I actually have this spyware?    And if I were to reinstall  Maveric - would my files and such be undisturbed?  so that only Safari would be replaced?    I"M LOST .... (as if you couldn't tell)
    I've been working with Mac for 30 years or more and although I'm hands on taught the only thing I lack is the newer "buzz words" so if you can help me out - please make it simple ??  thanks

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
    You may have installed one or more of the common types of ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it. It's been reported that some variants of the "VSearch" malware block access to the page. If that happens, start in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime, then try again.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
    If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, ask for further instructions.
    Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. It may have come from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
    Malware is also found on websites that traffic in pirated content such as video. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
    or
              Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
    if it's not already checked.
