My Safari is not opening at all, and has not for over 24 hours. What's going on? What comes up on the screen when I click on it is a blank sheet with "untitled" at the top. Help, please.

Camille,

Although you might not have Safari open where you can see it it might still be running as a process. Open Activity Monitor and select Memory, scroll down the list of items using memory and see if you see anything related to Safari still active in memory. If you find something, double click on it and another window comes up with information about the process. Select at the bottom quit. There are two options to quit first is quit second is force quit. If quit alone does not remove the process then you will have to force quit the process. A word of warning although this is an easy way to quit processes that are not responding, or not closing be careful some processes are system processes and if shut down forcibly can cause the system to lock or crash. I have not heard of any damaging effects from this besides data lose in apps that were open but always be careful.

Click to go on Safari then open what looks like a book on the bottom of the screen and "bookmarks" will come up click on history and if its deleted then it will become blank if it is not deleted then you will have urls and if you want to delete it just press clear

Your homepage is the page that normally appears when you first open Safari.

1. Open Safari if it is not already open.
2. Choose Safari > Preferences, and then click General.
3. Do one of the following:
   • To use the page in the current Safari window or tab, click "Set to Current Page."
   • To use another page, type its address in the Homepage field.
   • To use a blank page, delete the contents of the Homepage field so that the field is blank.
4. If you also want the homepage to appear whenever you open a new Safari window, choose Homepage from the "New windows open with" pop-up menu.

Good Luck!

   • To use another page, type its address in the Homepage field. You can type Google.com here.

Safari is the chosen browser it sounds like and Chrome is your preference for which search engine will be used. Breathe. This is a preference change that is a couple of straightforward clicks from being exactly how you want it.

1. Close everything so we limit confusion if thats ok.
2. Click on Safari at the bottom of your screen to open your Safari browser.
3. Once open, click on the word Safari at the top of your computer screen next to the picture of the apple in the top left corner. Thats the menu bar and what we want. Don't over think it and try to find something in the actual browser window.
4. When you single click Safari a list will appear with About Safari at the top. We want to select (click) the third one down that says preferences.
5. This will cause a large square box to appear in the middle of your screen. It has General centered at the top.
6. Get excited because your almost done.
7. Just below General in the first 2 square boxes are your "preferences" for your browser and search engine. They should say google or chrome for your search engine based on your question. Click the box and change the preference to Safari or whatever you would like to use.
8. You did it. Dance a jig and be a wildcat. Change those whenever you want.

If you have more problems then ask again.

Change the Home Page:

1. Open Safari if it is not already open.
2. Choose Safari > Preferences, and then click General.
3. Do one of the following:
   • To use the page in the current Safari window or tab, click "Set to Current Page."
   • To use another page, type its address in the Homepage field.
   • To use a blank page, delete the contents of the Homepage field so that the field is blank.
4. If you also want the homepage to appear whenever you open a new Safari window, choose Homepage from the "New windows open with" pop-up menu

5. Then choose Google as your default search engine.

Block pop-ups on webpages

1. Open Safari if it is not already open.
   
2. Choose Safari > Preferences, and then click Security.
   
3. Turn on "Block pop-up windows."
   

Blocking pop-up windows stops only those windows that appear when you open or close a page. It does not block pop-up windows that open when you click a link.

If you block pop-up windows, you might miss important information for a webpage. For example, a website that provides services to you might use a pop-up window to request your user name.

Block unnecessary webpage content

1. Open Safari if it is not already open.
   
2. Choose Safari > Preferences, and then click Security.
   
3. In the "Web content" section, select or deselect types of content you want to block or enable. For an explanation of the options, click the Help button (looks like a question mark).

Hope that helps!

Hello
This could come from your browser (Safari?) that needs to be updated, or cleaned. To clean the cache, go in the safari menu and click on the empty cache option. To update your safari, go in the apple menu and select software update. If this does not help, please try another browser like firefox, or google chrome.
Hope this helps

Hello and Welcome to FixYa!

Is the safari browser still open? If yes then press the home screen button and keep holding it until you see a re-spring (you see the home screen icons again). After this turn the iPod off my holding the power button at the top until you see a slider. Slide it and wait for the device to turn off. When completely turned off restart it by pressing the power button.

Hope this solves your problem.
If you found me helpful, do rate me.

Regards,
Waqar.

Open Safari, go to the menu bar at the top, click Safari, then you should see a list with "Empty Cache"
