Safari cannot install extensions

When I visit https://safari-extensions.apple.com/ I see a message at the top of the screen which seems to suggest that Apple's site I am under an outdated browser / OS combo:

Extensions in this gallery run in Safari on OS X El Capitan and Yosemite 9.0. Learn about OS X El Capitan >

… Except that I'm not. I'm running Safari 9.1.1 (11601.6.17) on OS X El Capitan (10.11.5). Therefore when the extensions gallery there is no on-screen navigation button / link / anything to install an extension.

Also has anyone seen this behavior?

You have antivirus software installed on your Mac?

  • I cannot install extensions, they appear with "will be installed after you restart Firefox" even after that I restarted.

    Hello

    I cannot install extensions, they appear with "will be installed after you restart Firefox" even after that I restarted.

    The 'Intermediary' folder is present and rest after a restart, but the extensions do not get installed. They show in the extensions page with the message "will be installed after you restart Firefox" and remain like that, no matter how many times I restart.

    Any idea?

    Thank you very much

    P.S. Just tried to install the add-on "convenience store" before asking the question and I got an error saying that it cannot install because it cannot change the necessary file. (I did manually instead)

    I tried to delete the files extensions.* nothing works. However, I deleted the addons.sqlite file and restarted my computer (computer not only Firefox) and that seemed to do the trick. Problem solved.

  • Cannot install Extensions in Safari 9.0.1

    I'm on Mac OS X on a MacBook Pro 2013 10.10.5 and I have noticed when I try to install all the extensions that are not the Safari Extensions Gallery, it opens with a window asking you if I trust in it and I click on trust, but the extension does not appear in the extensions list, or anywhere. This was happening on OS X 10.11.1 also. He was working on Safari 8, but not Safari 9.0.1. I have not found any discussion which has helped.

    Please, back up all data before proceeding.

    Launch the Keychain Access 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.

    Use the search box in the toolbar of the Keychain Access window to find an item named 'Safari Extensions list'. If found, delete it. Quit Keychain Access.

    Quit and restart the Safari app.

  • Cannot install extensions - access denied

    I am trying to install an extension, but a message pops up saying that Firefox prevented me from moving it. I'm going to the addon website and try to install from there, but I get another message saying Firefox "cannot change the necessary file. I think I know what it is - the extensions folder in my profile, it's all the 'access denied' - NOTHING I could move I tried through the Security tab, but everything he tells me it is that I need read permissions. I tried to delete the directory via the command prompt, but it tells me the same thing, "access denied"... I'm puzzled! But I have to install this extension!

  • Cannot install extensions in DW CS3 since Photoshop CS6 trial download

    I use Dreamweaver CS3 on Windows XP. A week ago, I downloaded the free 30 day trial of Photoshop CS6. Since then, when I try to install an extension in Dreamweaver, CS6 Adobe Extension Manager opens with the message "this extension can be installed, it requires Dreamweaver version 6 or greater. I looked add & remove programs on my computer to see if the CS6 extensions manager could be uninstalled, but is not on the list of programs so I guess the only way to remove it would be to uninstall the trial of Photoshop, I want to do. Is there a way around this problem? The extension, I tried to install is an update of a PVII product I have already installed.

    In DW CS3, when you select COMMANDS. Manage Extensions, what version of the extension manager opens?

    Have you tried to uninstall the trial SP6?

  • On the Extensions Safari page - 'Install now' does not appear

    Hello!

    On the page Extensions Safari - lettering 'Install now' does not appear!

    I have deleted all the extensions, the folders and files to library - nothing has worked!

    Thanks for any help,

    Hans,

    Action Berlin ;-)

    Please read this 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 goal of this step is to determine if the problem is localized to your user account.

    Select the feedback connections* and log in as a guest. Do not use the Safari connection only 'user comments' created by 'find my Mac '.

    While signed in as a guest, you will have access to your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you use them for the first time. Do not be alarmed by this behavior; It's normal. If you need any password or other personal information in order to complete the test, save, print, or write them before you start.

    Test while signed in as a guest. Same problem?

    After testing, log on to the guest account and in your own account, disable it if you wish. The files that you created in the guest account will be automatically deleted when you log out of it.

    * Note: If you have enabled 'find my Mac' or FileVault, then you cannot activate the guest account. The login 'User comments' created by 'Find my Mac' is not the same. Create a new account to test and delete it, including his home folder, after testing.

    Step 2

    The goal of this step is to determine if the problem is caused by changes in the system of third party that load automatically at startup or logon, by a device, by a police conflict or corruption of system files or some system caches.

    Please take this step regardless of the results of step 1.

    Disconnect all devices wired except those required to test and remove all the expansion cards from secondary market, as appropriate. Start in safe mode and log on to the account of the problem.

    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for additional instructions.

    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run as normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things work at all, including an audio output and a Wi - Fi connection on some models. The next normal boot can also be a bit slow.

    The login screen is displayed even if you normally connect automatically. You need your password to log on. If you have forgotten the password, you will have to reset it before you begin.

    Test in safe mode. Same problem?

    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and make sure you always have the problem. View the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • Safari cannot connect to server

    Hello. I'm not very good in English please bear with me.

    so in fact, there are a few questions here.

    1. I use the 2015 macbook, os x version yosemite 10.10.3, safari version 8.0.5. somehow, I couldn't reach several Web sites with safari. I put google.com.my as my homepage, but everytime when I open safari, it says "safari cannot connect to the server.

    2. I can not go to websites by typing simply 'youtube.com' as well, https:// will be added. Why?

    3. the unwanted tabs sort will pop up randomly, leading me to websites with the url as: ssp.zryydi.com, clkfeed.com, stamplive.com, who would not charge as "safari can't connect to the server.

    I looked up solutions online and did things like deleting the history data and the Web site, check for unwanted extensions (there no), change the DNS... none worked. then I downloaded Google Chrome and encountered the same problems, as well. I also tried to upgrade to OS X el capitan, but the App Store seemed unable to "connect to Server" as well. I couldn't update anything. all these problems ensue even when I connect the mac to hotspot instead of wifi.

    Thanks to someone patient enough to help me with this

  • Help! Safari cannot connect to the server

    I really need help! I tried to forget the network and turning it back on, I have disabled the firewall and remove all extensions of safari. I seems that nothing works.

    I get the message 'Safari cannot connect to the server' on almost every site except this and facebook. I can't enter same Urbanoutfitters.com or ASOS. I just got the message "Safari could not connect to Server" I'm not a computer genius so hopefully someone here can help me...

    You may have installed one or more variants of the malware "VSearch' ad-injection. Please back up all data, and then take the steps below to disable it.

    Do not use any type of product, "anti-virus" or "anti-malware" on a Mac. It is never necessary for her, and relying on it for protection makes you more vulnerable to attacks, not less.

    Malware is constantly evolving to work around defenses against it. This procedure works now, I know. It will not work in the future. Anyone finding this comment a couple of days or more after it was published should look for a more recent discussion, or start a new one.

    Step 1

    VSearch malware tries to hide by varying names of the files it installs. It regenerates itself also if you try to remove it when it is run. To remove it, you must first start in safe mode temporarily disable the malware.

    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for other instructions.

    Step 2

    When running in safe mode, load the web page and then triple - click on the line below to select. Copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination:

    /Library/LaunchDaemons

    In the Finder, select

    Go ▹ go to the folder...

    from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + V. You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return.

    A folder named "LaunchDaemons" can open. If this is the case, press the combination of keys command-2 to select the display of the list, if it is not already selected.

    There should be a column in the update Finder window. Click this title two times to sort the content by date with the most recent at the top. Please don't skip this step. Files that belong to an instance of VSearch will have the same date of change for a few minutes, then they will be grouped together when you sort the folder this way, which makes them easy to identify.

    Step 3

    In the LaunchDaemons folder, there may be one or more files with the name of this form:

    com Apple.something.plist

    When something is a random string, without the letters, different in each case.

    Note that the name consists of four words separated by dots. Typical examples are:

    com Apple.builins.plist

    com Apple.cereng.plist

    com Apple.nysgar.plist

    There may be one or more items with a name of the form:

    com.something.plist

    Yet once something is a random string, without meaning - not necessarily the same as that which appears in one of the other file names.

    These names consist of three words separated by dots. Typical examples are:

    com.semifasciaUpd.plist

    com.ubuiling.plist

    Sometimes there are items (usually not more than one) with the name of this form:

    com.something .net - preferences.plist

    This name consists of four words (the third hyphen) separated by periods. Typical example:

    com.jangly .net - preferences.plist

    Drag all items in the basket. You may be prompted for administrator login password.

    Restart the computer and empty the trash.

    Examples of legitimate files located in the same folder:

    com.apple.FinalCutServer.fcsvr_ldsd.plist

    com Apple.Installer.osmessagetracing.plist

    com Apple.Qmaster.qmasterd.plist

    com Apple.aelwriter.plist

    com Apple.SERVERD.plist

    com Tether.plist

    The first three are clearly not VSearch files because the names do not match the above models. The last three are not easy to distinguish by the name alone, but the modification date will be earlier than the date at which VSearch has been installed, perhaps several years. None of these files will be present in most installations of Mac OS X.

    Do not delete the folder 'LaunchDaemons' or anything else inside, unless you know you have another type of unwanted software and more VSearch. The file is a normal part of Mac OS X. The "demon" refers to a program that starts automatically. This is not inherently bad, but the mechanism is sometimes exploited by hackers for malicious software.

    If you are not sure whether a file is part of the malware, order the contents of the folder by date modified I wrote in step 2, no name. Malicious files will be grouped together. There could be more than one such group, if you attacked more than once. A file dated far in the past is not part of the malware. A folder in date dated Middle an obviously malicious cluster is almost certainly too malicious.

    If the files come back after you remove the, they are replaced by others with similar names, then either you didn't start in safe mode or you do not have all the. Return to step 1 and try again.

    Step 4

    Reset the home page in each of your browsers, if it has been modified. In Safari, first load the desired home page, then select

    ▹ Safari preferences... ▹ General

    and click on

    Set on the current Page

    If you use Firefox or Chrome web browser, remove the extensions or add-ons that you don't know that you need. When in doubt, remove all of them.

    The malware is now permanently inactivated, as long as you reinstall it never. A few small files will be left behind, but they have no effect, and trying to find all them is more trouble that it's worth.

    Step 5

    The malware lets the web proxy discovery in the network settings. If you know that the setting was already enabled for a reason, skip this step. Otherwise, you should undo the change.

    Open the network pane in system preferences. If there is a padlock icon in the lower left corner of the window, click it and authenticate to unlock the settings. Click the Advanced button, and then select Proxies in the sheet that drops down. Uncheck that Auto Discovery Proxy if it is checked. Click OK, and then apply.

    Step 6

    This step is optional. Open the users and groups in the system preferences and click on the lock icon to unlock the settings. In the list of users, there may be some with random names that have been added by the malware. You can remove these users. If you are not sure whether a user is legitimate, do not delete it.
