Using safari at wi-fi location

Welcome to Apple Discussions
Have a look in your Network panel. In your "show" drop down menu> Network Configurations, is Airport selected? Is it at the top of the list (you can drag it there). If you are not using Ethernet direct connection, Bluetooth, etc. they ought to be left unselected.
If you are using your MacBook in multiple locations, you can set up a specific location for each place via the Location>Add Location drop down menu.

I'm trying to access an uncompleted app. on a gov't website using Safari 5.1. I receive a message saying the browser is incompatible with the website. It has been suggested that use Safari 5.0 instead. Must I delete 5.1 first, or can I have both browsers

I'm trying to access an uncompleted app. on a gov't website using Safari5.1 I receive a message saying the browser is incompatible. I have been advised to use Safari 5.0. Must I delete 5.1 or can I use both browsers on my Mac.

As above, there is more to Safari than just the App, however I dont like the changes in 5.1, so restored the 5.0 version of just the App and it functions just like it used to
It might not work for you, and it can just be deleted if it doesn't, not sure how easy it is without time machine
go into Finder and Applications folder
enter time machine (it will default to app folder)
find a date that you had 5.0
click to restore it (Do Not restore into original location, restore it to desktop to test it)
When this has been done, run Safari from your desktop and see if it fixes your issue
I have been using this version done like this for a couple of weeks and it is fine, I did copy it to the Application\Utitlities folder along with some other older software I have, then made this one the version on my dock
If it doesn't make any difference just delete Safari.app from your desktop

Trouble using Safari on start-up with pop-up error

Hi,
I'm having trouble using Safari. Every time I open up the application, a small screen popped up saying "Error- Failed to load the FastBrowserSearchPlugin plugin.* -[BrowserWindowController currentWebView]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x7aa570". What can I do to get rid of this issue. I am assuming it has something to do with the Fast Browser Search engine located on the top right of the safari app. Help me please! Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.

HI and welcome to Apple Discussions...
You need to uninstall that plugin.
Go here for instructions on how to remove it.

I think you'll find it in: ~/Library/Internet Plugin-ins
~ (Tilde) represents your Home folder.

When using Firefox I can no long get the two finger enlargement to work on my Apple. The same site will enlarge using Safari, so I assume it has to do with Firefox

Some gestures have been removed in Firefox 4 and later.
You can restore the zoom feature by changing the values of the related prefs on the about:config page.
browser.gesture.pinch.in -> cmd_fullZoomReduce
browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift -> cmd_fullZoomReset
browser.gesture.pinch.out -> cmd_fullZoomEnlarge
browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift -> cmd_fullZoomReset
browser.gesture.pinch.latched -> false
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
*Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
*Preferences that have been modified show as bold(user set).
*Preferences can be reset to the default or changed via the right-click context menu.

Battery drain while using Safari after 8.2 ios upgrade?

Anyone else having battery drain issues after upgrading to 8.2? When I use Safari a lot, I notice the battery drains quickly. I see that the Safari loading icon is often animated.
Also, I saw a suggestion to turn off motion and fitness tracking or something in the privacy settings, but I don't see that option in my iPhone 5. Can this be turned off on iPhone 5?
iOS 8.2 has been terrible for me. How was this allowed to get out of beta? Dictation is screwed up in Safari, and it doesn't fix the longstandig copy and paste bug (in Safari the cut/select/copy options disappear after half a second) nor does it fix the atrocious way that Safari reloads tabs when you toggle between them. The tabs didn't used to reload every time before ios 8. The reloading of the Safari tabs makes you lose anything you have written in forms on Safari pages.
Apple really needs to get its act together. The software has been so much less reliable than in previous years. Are the beta testers even doing their jobs?
Anyway, if anyone has any suggestions about the battery drain issue or anything else mentioned here, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Facing battery drain issues after upgrading to 8.2. turned off location services and background refresh for a bunch of apps and also turned off motion and fitness tracking but still battery drains no matter what you do.
iOS 8.2 is terrible for me too.

When I used Safari to go to the American Express web site a request came up asking me to register my Amex card. I thought this was strange so I called Amex and they saw it when they went online and they said it was my iPad that had been hacked. Is there

When I used Safari to go to the American Express web site a request came up asking me to register my Amex card. I thought this was strange so I called Amex and they saw it when they went online and they said it was my iPad that had been hacked. Is there an app to protect my iPad when I am online with sensitive information?

I located some suggestions for flushing the cache.
There are really three ways you can flush the DNS cache on your iPad.
1) Simply turn the iPad off and on again using the power button. A simple reboot will go a long way.
2) Turning on Airplane mode and then turning it off again will also clear the DNS cache and should be enough to fix the problem. Tap on your Settings icon, then swipe Airplane mode to On and then back off. Since Airplane mode disables the wireless features of your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to comply with airline regulations, this will generally do the trick.
The third method would reset all your network settings and I'm pretty sure you don't want to do that right now.

Why is there a guest account who can use safari in my login window???

why is there a guest account who can use safari in my login window when i completely disabled the guest account. I disabled the guest account so others wont be able to use the internet, specifically safari, on my mac, as a form of security/parental control and now anyone who wants to go online csn do so.
how could i completely remove that out of my login window?

Security enthusiasts highly recommend keeping the Guest User Safari account enabled so that if you happen to lose your Mac, or if it’s stolen, it could easily be tracked down.
The first thing most thieves do is turn on the device to see if it works, and/or access your information, or surf the internet. Once it connects to the internet, you now have an opportunity to start collecting data that could eventually lead to the device recovery and thief capture.
This is not a full guest user account, if you select the Guest User option at login, the Mac will restart to a secured Safari-only version of the OS with access to the internet. So what’s the point of this? It turns out this is part of setting up iCloud in Mac OS X, specifically the “Find My Mac” feature. The Safari Guest User allows someone to get online so the Mac can be located, but prevents the Safari user from accessing your files and applications.

Posting problem using safari or firefox with IMAC

Can anybody help with the following issue. I can access the labs.macromedia website, I can access the Light room posting board. But signing in using safari or firefox on a imac is troublesome and takes several minutes and is half of the time unsuccesful. When trying to post, the signing in screen shows up and asks for e-mail address and password, no problem after pressing the button "continue" the system hangs for so long that safari reports a time out. I have no problems with other websites on the same imac machine I have tried this whole routine on a windows machines from the same location and internet connection set up and no problems at all. A report from another safari user shows also no problem at all. I assume that it is a combination of safari/firefox, this website and my machine settings. Probably I have to change something on the settings for safari or firefox or Imac, but I don't know what. Is there any experience with same problems and a solution out there?
Regards
Iemke

Got to be honest and say this is really, really frustrating!
Am I the only person who cannot view trailers at Apple's website, even with their browser?

I have installed Firefox4 to find it is not compatible with my version of OSX how do I get version 3.6 back or do I just give up and use Safari?

I downloaded Version 4 and installed it. At no point did it say that it was not compatible with the version of OS X that I am running (10.4.11) now that it is installed it will not open but it has already up graded from 3.6 so I have lost the lot. How can I download a version of 3.6 so that I can use it again or should I just pack up and use Safari as all I can get from your site is version 4. HELP!!!

Error message when using Safari

When trying to open a link online (using Safari version 7.0.1), I receive this error message: javax.servlet.ServletException: A problem occurred while instantiating controller and handling request. Does anyone know how to resolve this? This issue only occurred after I got the new Maverick operating system.
Also listed on the error page are:
Cannot serve request to /continuing-studies/courses/caba/business-analysis-fundamentals.html on this server
ApacheSling/2.2 (Day-Servlet-Engine/4.1.24, Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 1.6.0_45, Linux 2.6.32-358.6.2.el6.x86_64 amd64)

Thanks for this - I tried viewing the same site on a different computer and the same error messages were present, so I'm satisfied that the issue has nothing to do with me, my upgrades or my security settings.

I have just updated to iOS7, no icon for browser, was using Safari, how do I get it back and can I reverse the upgrade and go back to iOS6?

The icon for Safari has probably moved to make room for new apps. Scroll the Home screen to look for it.
You cannot reverse the upgrade.

It sounds like you've got a messed-up homepage. Click the Safari menu, click Preferences, and under "Home page", re-type the page you'd prefer to load when Safari starts (eg "nytimes.com" or whatever). Close preferences and try again.

I just updated to 4.0.1 on my mac and now it says "Firefox is currently in offline mode and can't browse the web". It is not my internet since I am using Safari just fine. Any suggestions? I sure wish I wouldn't have updated!

Drop down menus on iPad, the first selection in the drop down will not load as a selection when using safari, what can I do?

Drop down menus on iPad, the first selection in the drop down will not load as a selection when using safari, what can I do? I use this for my mobile, on-site auto repair business and not being able to call up repair and diagnostic info and reference for some cars is troublesome for sure. It works fine on the computer and I have installed a remote desktop app as a workaround but it is unreliable because the desktop is not business dedicated and may be off or in use at the time. So is there a known fix for this?
Let me paint a more descriptive picture, visualize 4 drop down selection menus, first one is for year, next one is for make, 3rd one is model and the last one is for engine size/type. If I wanted to choose a 2012 vehicle it wont work because it is the top selection on the list. This can be forced by selecting any other year and then coming back to 2012. Ok fine, but then let's say I wanted to choose Acura as the make, well it won't take it because again it's the top selection. Again you work around it be selecting any other make and coming back to Acura. Ok now select the model, same trend follows. But now since most Acura vehicles come with dedicated engines and no optional engines I have only 1 selection in that final drop down menu and it will not take my selection and therefore never let me proceed to the info I need.
This is also true when ordering parts from my wholesaler's website, they use drop downs and I can only get to that last drop down and then I'm stuck. This is blindingly frustrating, what options do I have. I'm not opposed to any avenue at this point.

Did you ever figure this out? I bought my iPad last week to use in my business as well. I assume you are trying to use alldata? That is where I noticed this same issue. I had problems with identifix working with safari but downloaded a different browser and that works fine. Alldata does not work with either browser. The main difference is that on identifix if there is only one engine selection, it automatically selects the only option and continues to the home page. With alldata you have to make the selection manually even if there is only one option. Honestly if I can't get this to work I am going to return the iPad as it looses a significant amount of usefulness to men

I cannot access online statements for my credit card account when using firefox, but have no problem when using safari.

When I attempted to check the monthly statement for my credit card account and clicked on "See statement", the next screen that appeared, which was labeled Online Statement", was blank. In the past, I have never had any problems with this. When I checked with the bank that issued the credit card, the representative I spoke with said that it was a browser issue and that, since I was working on a Mac, I should try using Safari. When I switched to Safari, I had no problem bringing up my statement. But I would prefer to be able to use Firefox to obtain information like this, since it's the browser I always use.

Can you upgrade your browser to Firefox 12 and check?
