My Safari Top Sites Page Flashing

My Safari Top Sites page suddenly started flashing and won't load properly but all other pages and sites seem to be okay. Everything is updated and the disk is fine.

Open the Finder. Click Go from the Finder menu bar then click Go to Folder.
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Safari
Click Go the move the TopSites.plist file from the Safari folder to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari. Check TopSites.

Just downloaded 5.0 version of Firefox..when I click on my TOP SITE Icon my screen comes up "blank and black" how do I get my top sites back?

You can click on the TOP SITE ICON but none of the sites show up...only a black screen

I have the shortcuts on my browser to the sites that I go to frequently. It's when I press those buttons (which have always worked before and I checked their URLs) it takes me to the Yahoo Page not Found page. But then when I click the shortcut button again, it usually works.

Shaky safari top sites page

When I open a new window or tab with the top sites, all the top sites "SHAKE". I have a screen recording of this, but I have no clue how to (or if I can) post it. It happens all the time… I am not sure how to tell if it is running in 32 bit or 64 bit.

HI,
Uninstall CoolIris and see if the problem persists.

*"I am not sure how to tell if it is running in 32 bit or 64 bit."*
Right or control click the Safari icon in the Applications folder, then click: Get Info. In the Get Info window undre the General tab you wil see the option for "Open in 32-bit mode"...
Try a new window or tab with Top Sites. If the "shake" persists. If it does ...
Try Safari maintenance.
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
from the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset.
Quit Safari.
Go to Home/Library/Caches/Safari and delete all the sub-folders within that one.
Go to Home/Library/Safari and delete any of these files you have there:
• Downloads.plist
• History.plist
• LastSession.plist
 Repair disk permissions...
  Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.  Restart Safari
You can download and reinstall CoolIris here.

Hi Bill, this may be simpler to fix than it appears. You may have installed a Yahoo add-on which changed your home page. Could you try these two things:
(1) Disable or remove unwanted add-ons
If you do not recognize an extension on the following tab, or it's not essential (you could live without it for 24 hours), then go ahead and disable it:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Extensions category
You probably will need to restart Firefox for the changes to take effect. If so, there will be a handy link above the disabled item to do that.
(2) Change your home page to the desired page
This article has the steps for that: [[How to set the home page]]
Can you get back to normal?
Some possible follow-up notes:
If you find that your search providers also were changed during this snafu, you can use the following add-on to quickly set them all back to Google:
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
Finally, if your home page reverts to Yahoo after a restart, either there is another extension you need to disable or you might have a user.js file that is overriding your preferences when you start Firefox. This article has tips on changing that down: [[How to fix preferences that won't save]].

I have an Apple ID and a password, but when I try to sign in I am asked to review my account. When I click okay, it takes me to the billing information page and since I do not use or have a credit card anymore, I want to change the payment option, but there does not seem to be anyway to change this, as the only options available for payment are three different types of credit cards. How do I edit this information so I can pay by PayPal or have the payment option as none? I would like to be able to purchase music using a PayPal account. I have sent three emails to support and have not been able to fix this problem. Would appreciate any help on how I can change the payment information.

I have just worked this out; see below

Safari top sites issue

When I click on the top sites they won't open. They open if I click on those same sites' bookmarks or if I type them in, but there's no reaction when I click on them when their previews show when I open a new tab or window. Anyone else has the same issue? How did you fix it?

MIght be corrupted preferences ...
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Safari/TopSites.plist
Click Go then move the TopSites.plist file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.

What do i do if my internet is wep and i need it to be wpa2 because my ipod touch 4th gen connects to the internet but when i click on safari or itunes it says safari cannot open the page because its not connected to the internet

what do i do if my internet is wep and i need it to be wpa2 because my ipod touch 4th gen connects to the internet but when i click on safari or itunes it says safari cannot open the page because its not connected to the internet. i have contacted apple support and they said to change from wep to wpa2 but when i change it to wpa2 and type in password and connect on my laptop it says the saved setting on this computer for the network do not match the require ments of the network

My 2nd gen works fine with WPA2 and AES encryption.
You may need to go back and start over. Reset the router back to factory defaults, log on as the admin, set up security, DHCP, and make sure the IP address pool has enough IP addresses to lease to ALL of the computers/devices that will connect to that the router.

When i click on safari to use the internet it says "safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the internet", but i am connected to a wifi network so how do i get safari to work?

you may be connected to the wireless network but the question is the internet working properly on the wireless network...
what i mean is that i can make a wireless network without the internet so i can save and share files and have other devices connected to the same network access them... but you have to make sure that your internet it running properly... may have to reconfigure the router is your using PPPOE or if it was working prior to your post then try to restart your modem... that usually resolves most issues.

My macbook pro started acting strange after a safari reset. the mouse no longer: animates the dock, activates hot corners or selects pages from the 'top sites' page.

my macbook pro started acting strange after a safari reset.
the mouse no longer: animates the dock, activates hot corners or selects pages from safari 'top sites' (without a hassle). attempts to reset dock and hot corners from preferences has been fruitless
the mouse also gets 'stuck' in logic precipitating force quits.
i run osX 10.6.8 on a 2007 macbook pro that has had 2 motherboards replaced autumn 2010.
my troubleshooting has been: restart, pRam and safe boot, also checking a 'test' account to find the same issues extant.
pRam restart caused airport to quit and say there is no airport card, and wouldn't respond untill another reboot.
macbook pro 15" 2.4 GHz intel core duo.2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM.
i have treated this book with care, yet run logic pro studio to the limit of this book's abilities.
what shoud i do?

You don't say which year you have, however...
...there are known problems with the mid-2010 models (see http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4088?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US) as well as early and late 15" 2011 models (see https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4766577?tstart=0).
Apple has taken ownership of the problems with the 2010 model but, unfortunately, the free logic board replacement for that model has probably long expired for you - three years after date of purchase.
One the 2011 models Apple has admitted no defect. You'll just have to skim the articles to get an overview of the problems that people are having (usually showing up as screen glitches at first and then going downhill from there).
Good luck,
Clinton

Have been running version 4 for a week without problems. Today, downloaded MS live security update, and have had problems since. when I click on a favorite site, it takes 20 to 40 seconds before the page load's and the same if I click a link on the page.

When I click on Safari Icon it opens,but under the desktop picture.How can I get it on top of it?

When I click on Safari Icon it opens,but under the Desktop picture.How can I get it on top,so I could see it?

I would open a guest account and see if the problem persist in this new enviroment.
Boot into Safe Boot Mode and see if the problem is present, this turns off third party plug-in's and extentions.
This will give us something to go on and recommend the next step.

My safari is blocked or locked. When I click on safari at the top of my screen, everything below it is gray. How can I get it to open for me?

Maybe the following since I do not really understand what yo mean by click on the top part of the screen
