Which Safari Extension do I need to look at Kroger Digital Coupons?
It tells me I can't open the download until I enable the extension in Safari, but doesn't tell me which extension I need...I just want to download the digital coupons for this week.
Hi ..
Not all but some websites that off digital coupons, when you download the coupons they install malware, adware, or spyware.
For security sake, you're better off not downloading coupons.

I'm receiving a message when I open Safari that says my version is no longer supported(5.1.10) & I need to disable some browser extension. In Safari Extensions there are no extensions. What should I do? Thanks for your help.
I now use the TenFourFox browser on our remaining PowerPC Macs including a G4 PowerBook. Web sites see it as a newer version of FireFox tha and G4 can support and you get much better compatibility. Wikipedia info/history here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TenFourFox
The TenFourFox official site and download is here:

Downside: the last version of TFF that supports plug-ins was V17 so current versions won't play Flash animations. Even when TFF played Flash, the old G-series Mac processors were struggling with modern web video content, so you are not losing much.
If you must have smooth-playing web video, you'll need a new computer, as very little web video content is optimized for our PowerPC processors on old Macs. -
Error while trying to install safari extensions on Macbook Pro Retina
Dear All,
Yesterday I had to re-install Mountain Lion OS on MacBook Pro Retina. Everything went smoothly however after the installation process and updating sytem to the newest possible version, I am not able to install any Safari extensions. I was trying to find any information in the internet about this but so far I am unsuccessful in solving this issue. I am currently running Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and Safari 6.0.1. I would be grateful for any help.
Best Regards,
JanBack up all data now.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
Launch the 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.
Drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:20 ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ 2> /dev/null
Be sure to select the whole line by triple-clicking anywhere in it. You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2
Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select Utilities ▹ Terminal from the menu bar. A text window opens.
In the Terminal window, type this:
resetpassword
That's one word with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window opens. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select ▹ Restart from the menu bar. -
Safari extensions not in color
My Safari browser, toolbar and all icons are grey. Does anyone know if you can install the Safari Extensions someway in which they appear in color ? ie; The Weather Channel, Pinterest, Evernote, etc.
I've seen other browsers/toolbars where the icons were in color, making it easier to find each of the icons when needed.
Thanks in advance for any useful advice and/or solutions.
MacBook Pro 17", using OS X 10.9.4 and Safari Version 7.0.5If you want to change the color, use Download Firefox
Always good to have a backup browser installed in case you have problems with Safari and can't connect to the internt for help. -
Workaround for safari extension that are subjected to CSP?
I tried injecting an iframe to webpages with the help of a safari extension but this introduced me to an error. On reading about it, looks like the sites have to specifically allow 'safari-extension:' under their CSP response header. The sites which do not include that, will not let the safari extension work. I was wondering whether there is any workaround for the same. Please let me know. Thanks
Try going to the View menu and choosing "Customize Address Bar." From there you should be able to drag the back/forward buttons back onto the Safari toolbar.

Can not turn on Safari Extensions in Preferences, switch just doesn't respond. How can I do it?
Can not turn on Safari Extensions in Preferences, switch just doesn't respond. How can I do it?
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2. -
Adware in Safari Extension "Print Plus" by Slice Factory
I installed this extension called "Print Plus" from apple.com Safari extension page and noticed that when I was browsing amazon.com, I started getting popups for something called "Best Price" - which showed a balloon window with a link to another site.
At first I wasn't sure where this was coming from, but ended up at a page on a "Slice Factory" website that showed the best price discount finder extension and noticed that Print Plus was listed as another of their extensions. So I uninstalled the "Print Plus" extension and the ads went away.
This was easily reproducible by me - install the "Print Plus" extension, go to amazon.com and look at the Apple Battery Charger - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003XIJ566 - and you should get a pop up with an ad for another site. Uninstalled the extension and the popup ad went away.
So my advice is avoid all extensions by "Slice Factory".Have never had Price Blink installed (or any extension of that ilk), only Print Plus, and it was never actually used. As I mentioned before the Print Plus localstorage file seems to contain the answers. The reason I got immediate results on the one machine and delayed results on the other has to do with the fact that uninstalling the Print Plus extension does not delete the file in ~Library/Safari/LocalStorage.
*At this point, I can pretty much guarantee that if you install Print Plus 1.0.2.0 eventually you will begin to see the adware balloons* (I mentioned the Apple Battery Charger at amazon.com before, but started getting it on other items (also at amazon.com) when testing it on another machine) - *took about an hour or so* (plus a reboot, but don't know if that matters) *for the balloons to start showing up on a second machine after I installed Print Plus on that, yesterday.*
I've ended up deleting all Slice Factory extensions (I was using a Dictionary extension on another computer, it didn't exhibit the behavior, but just don't want to chance it. Also deleted their files from ~Library/Safari/LocalStorage/ as well.
The posts on macrumors.com that I linked to above claim that they notified Apple about this at the beginning of the month (the posts were around the 7th and 8th of March) - I notified them yesterday about this as well (through the "we don't respond to every request...." page.
I'm not computer illiterate, PriceBlink was never installed by me. Just for laughs, install Print Plus, leave it in for a few hours and see if you don't get the balloons also. -
Safari Extensions Migrated notice on every Safari restart
Every time I restart (close and reopen) Safari, I receive a pop-up stating "Your Safari extensions have been migrated."
When I look my my extensions in Safari Preferences, they have all been disabled... (and most aren't even there!)
I will re-enable the extensions, and everything is good... until I close/exit Safari and open it again, when I receive the migration pop-up and have to start all over again.
This happened all of a sudden, and I am unable to find any fix or solution.
I am running Safari 8.0 and OS 10.10.1
thanksMy initial search of the Apple Support Community forums did not bring up any results, so I posted my question... However, after a few more searches, I found this: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6597651?searchText=safari%20extension%20mig rated

Safari extensions have been migrated...to ?
After some routine updates I opened Safari and a window popped up with 'safari extensions have been migrated'. It didn't say
to where, nor did it say why! It also said something to the effect that I could get select extensions on the Apple site.
I'm a long time Mac user and have never encountered such (since OS6) but not a formal tech. The appearance is that
Apple is monkeying around with a surreptitious update??? I connected with Apple's joint online support (pretty neat).
The rep had me toss 3 apps: Clean My Mac, Mac Pilot and Mac Cleanse (Koingo software) but she
didn't answer the question. It seemed perfunctory and did not resolve the issue.
I did find and removed 3 Trojan Horse files (using ClamAV-direct and removed them along with two bad plugins, ytime
and ensure. That's reassuring but the issue remains: open Safari and get the above!
Does anyone know what is going on here?Helpful Links Regarding Malware Problems
If you are having an immediate problem with ads popping up see The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Guide and AdwareMedic.
Open Safari, select Preferences from the Safari menu. Click on Extensions icon in the toolbar. Disable all Extensions. If this stops your problem, then re-enable them one by one until the problem returns. Now remove that extension as it is causing the problem.

Fix Some Browser Pop-ups That Take Over Safari.
Common pop-ups include a message saying the government has seized your computer and you must pay to have it released (often called "Moneypak"), or a phony message saying that your computer has been infected, and you need to call a tech support number (sometimes claiming to be Apple) to get it resolved. First, understand that these pop-ups are not caused by a virus and your computer has not been affected. This "hijack" is limited to your web browser. Also understand that these messages are scams, so do not pay any money, call the listed number, or provide any personal information. This article will outline the solution to dismiss the pop-up.
Quit Safari
Usually, these pop-ups will not go away by either clicking "OK" or "Cancel." Furthermore, several menus in the menu bar may become disabled and show in gray, including the option to quit Safari. You will likely have to force quit Safari. To do this, press Command + option + esc, select Safari, and press Force Quit.
Relaunch Safari
If you relaunch Safari, the page will reopen. To prevent this from happening, hold down the 'Shift' key while opening Safari. This will prevent windows from the last time Safari was running from reopening.
This will not work in all cases. The shift key must be held at the right time, and in some cases, even if done correctly, the window reappears. In these circumstances, after force quitting Safari, turn off Wi-Fi or disconnect Ethernet, depending on how you connect to the Internet. Then relaunch Safari normally. It will try to reload the malicious webpage, but without a connection, it won't be able to. Navigate away from that page by entering a different URL, i.e. www.apple.com, and trying to load it. Now you can reconnect to the Internet, and the page you entered will appear rather than the malicious one.

If you require anti-virus protection Thomas Reed recommends using ClamXAV. (Thank you to Thomas Reed for this recommendation.)
From user Joe Bailey comes this equally useful advice:
The facts are:
1. There is no anti-malware software that can detect 100% of the malware out there.
2. There is no anti-malware that can detect everything targeting the Mac.
3. The very best way to prevent the most attacks is for you as the user to be aware that
the most successful malware attacks rely on very sophisticated social engineering
techniques preying on human avarice, ****, and fear.
4. Internet popups saying the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on
your computer is intended to entice you to install their malware thinking it is a
protection against malware.
5. Some of the anti-malware products on the market are worse than the malware
from which they purport to protect you.
6. Be cautious where you go on the internet.
7. Only download anything from sites you know are safe.
8. Avoid links you receive in email, always be suspicious even if you get something
you think is from a friend, but you were not expecting.
9. If there is any question in your mind, then assume it is malware. -
Safari extensions keep disappearing
Hi, I am new to the community and have a macbook pro retina running os x 10.8.5 mountain lion.
My safari extensions continuously vanish so I have to re-install them everyday.
After installation they show in preferences, (which is set to on) but when they disappear, extensions in preferences is empty.
I have reset safari and emptied the cache but this has not worked.
Help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.Back up all data before proceeding.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
Step 1
If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nouchg,nouappnd,noschg,nosappnd {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
▹ Restart
from the menu bar. -
How to search Safari Extensions Gallery on the Apple site?
This is a question for Safari users about the Apple.com/safari website.
How do I search the Safari Extensions Gallery on their website? The search bar at the top only searches the whole Apple site.
Just like with Widgets, it seems that Apple doesn't really want me to find anything useful to improve my Safari (or Dashboard) experience(s).
Frustrated with Apple lately,
DL MoonThanks, Carolyn.
The categories feature is somewhat helpful, but I can never guess which categories I'll find things in. For example, there is no productivity category, although there is in iTunes. It seems reasonable to expect the same categories throughout the Apple domain, but this is not always the case. Therefore, searching for Evernote extension is tricky.
For this reason, I'm looking for the actual search, just like in the app store, so that I can just key in the extension I'm searching for and find it more easily. Does that exist? or is it a missing feature of the Safari Extensions Gallery?
Thanks,
DLM -
My Safari Extensions preference page is blank. How do I resolve it? (Safari 5.1.2 on Lion 10.7.2)
I found my extensions window blank back when I used Snow Leopard. I thought Lion and new updates will eventually solve it. But it is still there. I tried everything I can. I tried downloading Safari 5.1.2 and reinstalling it. It didn't work. Then I uninstaled safari using CleanMyMac and then tried installing it from scratch. It didn't work. When I googled I found that deleting some plist file resolves the problem on some older version of Safari. But I cannot locate that plist file on Lion. How can I get back my extensions preference page?
Delete the following items:
/Library/Application Support/SIMBL
/Library/LaunchAgents/net.culater.SIMBL.Agent.plist
/Library/ScriptingAdditions/SIMBL.osax
Log out and log back in.
Make sure you never reinstall SIMBL, as it’s one of the worst articles of crapware on the Mac platform. It’s likely to come bundled with some other modfication that depends on it. If you want trouble-free computing, avoid software that makes miraculous changes to other software, especially built-in applications. The only real exception to that rule is Safari extensions, which are mostly safe, and are easy to get rid of when they don’t work. SIMBL and its dependents are not Safari extensions. -
Cannot Install Safari Extensions
Greetings,
Trying to install an extension on my Safari Version 8.0 (10600.1.25.1)
An extension installed successfully, but after Safari restart its all gone.
Does not matter which extension and how many,
After install I can see extensions in Safari Preferences window, but not after a restart.
I can see newly installed extensions in ~/Library/Safari/Extensions/ folder, the folder has correct permissions and owner.
Even though there are extensions in ~/Library/Safari/Extensions/ , Safari does not "sees" it after a restart.
It seems like this problem is specific to my PC, as I have checked it with other people - they don't experience it.
Please help !Back up all data before proceeding.
Launch the Keychain Access 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 Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Use the search box in the toolbar of the Keychain Access window to search for an item named "Safari Extensions List". If found, delete it. Quit Keychain Access.
Quit and relaunch Safari. -

My Safari extensions have stopped working. I am running Safari 7.0.3 on OXS 10.9.2. One day I went on to the internet and my extensions still appear, but are not functioning (my antivirus toolbar is unusable as only half of it is appearing, and my add blocker appears but doesn't actually block apps). I'm not quite sure if this is an issue with my extensions, or Safari, so I thought I would find out if anyone else is having this issue.
May be there is an adware installed.
