    Safari sometimes hangs when using google adress bar search

    Hello, Using the adressbar search with google, Safari sometimes stops loading the search results page and it isn't possible to start any new search. Only after restarting (close and open) Safari again, the search will function again. Anyone with the same problem? I am on macOS 10.12.6 and...

    No longer download Bing wallpaper in Safari?

    So earlier this week, the strangest thing happened. I use Bing as my search engine (no, that's not the strangest thing), and I regularly check their free wallpaper at bing.com and "download today's image" when I like it. All of a sudden, the option to download has gone away. It was never an...

    Safari notifications not working in high sierra

    At least for MacRumors, I click the resubscribe button and nothing happens. I check notifications preferences and there's nothing listed there for any sites.

    Safari

    Why would Apple include a check box in IOS11 to block Camera & Microphone access in Safari but not offer the same feature on High Sierra? Does Tim like Mark's tape trick on his MBP?

    Grey Banner Appearing in Safari

    Hanging Safari?

    I have a new 2017 tMBP. For the past week or so, pages (pretty much all pages) have been hanging (often for +/-10 seconds!) before loading and running normally. I had Ghostery running, and tried turning that off - no difference. I noticed the Safari update today and got that - no difference. I...

    Safari stopped working after update. iPhone 6..

    I just updated to iOS 11 and safari has stopped working on my iPhone 6... I’ve turned my phone on/off a few times and closed/reopened the app multiple times but I’m just getting the same blankish screen. I’m posting this from Chrome.

    Deleted everything on Mac but safari history/bookmarks/faves still there?

    I just reinstalled OS an hour ago by deleting everything on "Macintosh HD" and on the "Apple SSD". When I got my computer back up and running I got on safari and my browsing history from my computer days before I deleted everything was still there as well as my bookmarks, favorites and safari...

    Redundant browsing protection?

    With the release of macOS High Sierra, Safari now blocks sites from using cookies to track users around the web. This makes me wonder, will using a third-party plugin such as uBlock Origin interfere with Safari's native protection? Does anyone know if it is better to rely on Safari's native...

    Safari link peek

    Safari: Workaround for 'Scroll down to load more content' behavior?

    I feel like suddenly every website has implemented this feature. I'm on a Mac Pro 5,1 with Yosemite on an SSD and the internet connection download measured around 30-40Mbps on average. But ever since that feature started spreading like cancer, it's just basically made the whole internet...

    Blocking the Google Translate bar

    I really like that Safari in High Sierra can actively block cross-site following, but there is one drawback. The Google Translate bar that keeps reappearing every few days. Of course, the tracking prevention prevents it from remembering that I don't want, but I don't want it at all. Is there a...

    I am trying to figure out a way to discover if a history still exists somewhere on my computer of websites visited (from a specific day about three months ago). This is on a Macbook Pro, operating system is Sierra, and not using Time Machine or any other backup like that as far as I know. So...

    I'm streaming a full-screen video (in Safari) from my MacBook Pro to my TV via Airplay using the 'use as separate display' function, however when I want to use my Macbook Pro's screen at the same time (to surf the web for example) the full-screen video on my TV goes out of full-screen mode. How...

    iOS 11 dB 4 Safari pswd not syncing

    anyone having trouble with passwords not syncing via iCloud? I let safari suggest a website password on my iPad but it is not available on my iPhone. (This was done about 4 hours ago now.) I even toggled safari OFF in my iCloud settings hoping it would pull down when I turned it back on.

    Hey, how are you guys doing? I have an iPad Mini with the latest iOS 10 update. Lately I noticed that when I use google in Safari sometimes all links are light blue instead of the usual dark blue and the white boxes around the links have slightly rounded corners instead of sharp pointed...
