• I use Safari v8.0.8 and has problems

  I use Safari v8.0.8 (10600.8.9) on OS X Yosemite v10.10.5. Several months ago, everything was fine. Now Safari will not open certain Web pages not limited to Google, Yahoo, Gmail and Facebook. I don't know what to do to solve this problem. Help, please.

  The latest version of Safari is version 9.0.1. Please check the App Store for updates. If there is none, you run an out-of-date copy. Delete the copy and use that in the Applications folder. Never move or copy built-in applications.

• I have the same error message on Google & Shaw and BC issues, but I also use Safari accessing google through Shaw is the problem with Firefox?

  The problem seems to lie between Firefox & Google talk to each other. I also use Safari as a browser, also liked to Shaw and don't have no problem with Google Mail, (cards and other sites which now belongs to Google.)

  This is caused by the network of Shaw, they are working on a resolution, but in the meantime the fix above will work. After Shaw solves their problem be sure to reset this value by default is that it is a safety device, you do not want allowed.

• Problem with pop up adds and virus warnings when using safari

  I have an iMac with OS version 10.11.4 2011 mid.  Sites that I visit such as Ancestry.com, Google Maps and find A Grave.com, download pop up ads and new tabs open with warnings of virus heading towards various support sites, including those who say that Apple in charge.  The pop up and new tabs who may or may not happen if often the Web sites are very slow to respond at all to give me the turning ball.

  I closed several times tried to solve the problem in closing Safari, turn off my Wifi, then restart safari while pressing the SHIFT key, and then once that Safari has loaded, removing all data from the website and checking my making sure that my security settings is set to block pop-up windows up , and that my privacy is set to allow cookies and data Web site only on Web sites that I visit. Once I did this I activate Wifi.  But it does not clear the problem. I also ran Clamxav with the latest virus definitions that found six files with extensions of .emix that have been found in my emails and phishing files.

  I switched to Firefox as my default browser and have so far not had a problem with the pop adds up or virus alerts.  And the Web sites I visit have been working properly.

  What should I do to clear the problems I am having with Safari?

  First backup your drive hard as soon as POSSIBLE. You may well have a defect of the hard drives.

  Then start in the recovery volume (start with the command + R keys), select disk utility and run the feature of first aid on the disks.  If you receive a message that x number of errors were repaired, rerun the first aid until there is no errors detected and repaired.  Restarts normally and restart Etrecheck.

  Regardless of the results of the second report by no. means that you should not have Apple test a free diagnosis of your Mac.

  Thirdly, launch Safari with the SHIFT key is pressed and see if there is an improvement in the performance of Safari.

  Any help you can offer with this deeply frustrating problem is appreciated gratefully.

  Hello captainlarrydart,

  Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

  If I understand your message that your Mac is apparently going to sleep on his own, sometimes immediately after waking up.  To help solve this problem, please follow the steps below.

  If your Mac goes to sleep in an unexpected way

  Make sure that this energy saver is set up as you wish: choose the Apple menu > System Preferences, and then click energy saver. Adjust one or more of the following affect when controls your Mac goes to sleep. Some of these controls are not available on your Mac model.

  • Cursor 'turn off display after.
  • Cursor "display sleep".
  • Slider 'the computer sleep.
    If a slider is set to 'Never', sleep is disabled for this feature.
  • Schedule button

  Make sure you that you do not put your Mac to sleep accidentally:

  • Pressing on the button / stop can put your Mac to sleep.
  • Move your mouse pointer into a hot corner can put your Mac to sleep, depending on your settings from Mission control. Choose the Apple menu > System Preferences, and then click Mission control. Click on the button active corners, then see if any of the corners are set to "Display Put sleep."
  • Using magnets near your Mac laptop can put your Mac to sleep.

  If the previous steps do not work

  These additional steps can help identify or resolve the problem:

  • Reset the SMC.
  • Reset the NVRAM.
  • Disconnect external devices other than your Apple keyboard, mouse, and screen. If that solves the problem, gradually reconnect your devices, testing each time until you find the device that interferes with sleep. And then check the documentation that came with the device or contact the manufacturer of the device.
  • Start in Safe Mode to see if the problem is related to startup items not Apple, login items or kernel extensions.
  • Try to isolate the problem by using a different user account.

  If your Mac does not sleep or wake up when expected

  Have a good.

• computer freezes while using safari

  In recent times, at least once a day the computer freezes while using safari. All of a sudden, I'll realize the mouse won't scroll and I can't move a window. Force quit doesn't work, I have ripped off, unplug and then reverse the process. I used yesterday first aid in disk utility, but did not and bizarre messages. Any ideas what I should try next? FYI, I use actually OS 10.11.3.

• I can't use Safari - Keep getting message "ERROR CODE: RNN7892.

  I'm having a problem with a recurring message that makes it impossible to use Safari. Whenever I open the application, I get a "security error" message that is identified as "ERROR CODE: RNN7892" with a phone number to call, registered as 1-855-591-2254. The message is rendered to look at as it's Apple, but in this internet search, you get the same number when you find the same message sent to Microsoft machines. I would like to: a) stop getting these messages and b) be able to use Safari again. I use Firefox very well. This has happened a month or two there, but I was able to work around it, can't remember how. I tried force quit Safari, but it won't let me. Computer shutdown is not helped, because the same message again when I re - open Safari. Thanks in advance for any help or advice.

  Marty

  Well, now, I have to force quit Safari. He took care of the problem. May not know why it wouldn't let me before... Anyway, still wonder if everyone was able to see this message.

• Crashes when you use safari

  MY Mac Pro 2009 crashes when you use Safari. I can tell when it is about to happen. The screen will start to Flash and the mouse still moves, but you cannot select anything. Sometimes I can get it to unlock by pressing the ESC key.

  When the freeze on Safari, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.

  These must be run as administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.

  Run the Console application in one of the following ways:

  ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

  ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

  ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

  The title of the Console window should be all Messages. If it isn't, select

  SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ all Messages

  in the list of logs on the left. If you don't see this list, select

  List of newspapers seen ▹ display

  in the menu at the top of the screen bar.

  Each message in the journal begins with the date and time when it was entered. Highlight date back to the time you noted above.

  Select the messages entered since then until the end of the episode, or until they begin to repeat, whichever comes first.

  Copy messages to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command + V.

  The journal contains a large amount of information, almost all this is useless to solve any particular problem. When you post a journal excerpt, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.

  Please don't dump blindly thousands of lines in the journal in this discussion.

  Please do not post screenshots of log messages - text poster.

  Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

  When you post the journal excerpt, an error message may appear on the web page: "you include content in your post that is not allowed", or "the message contains invalid characters." It's a bug in the forum software. Thanks for posting the text on Pastebin, then post here a link to the page you created.

  If you have an account on Pastebin, please do not select private in exposure menu to paste on the page, because no one else that you will be able to see it.
