website icons in safari 16.3

in my case even the bookmarks on the side bar is a hit and miss .. some have icons but most don’t. let’s wait for a Safari update

After my update, all Favorite's icons turned gray and since I have a lot of them and recognize them by image this is a pretty big inconvenience. Any solutions?

iMac late 2014, upgrade to 16.3 and OS X 11.73 BigSUR same issues, and I have a lot of icons which I use everyday by recognition. Contacted Apple Support....No help

I have got the same problem and I re-installed the OSX Big Sur 11.7.3 (Ctrl+R) and Safari with (Ctrl+R once again) and still the website icons are greyed out.

I have tried everything to correct this problem, but alas to no avail. As stated by many people in this forum Apple support is no help whatsoever.

For what it's worth, this appears to be specific to Safari 16.3 on Big Sur 11.7.3. I've got an M1 MacBook Air running 12.6.3 Monterey, and the Safari 16.3 upgrade doesn't exhibit this problem.

SAME HERE! APPLE PLEASE FIX THIS!

Or you'll make me migrate to Firefox or Chrome!

Web site icons in safari 11.7.3 are grey without the normal logo.

My answer is that I switched to Google (by importing from Safari) for my search engine and it has all the icons showing the logo in the the side bar.

Worser and worser: After today's (Feb13) Safari update, most of the sites that did show favicons now *do not*. One exception: apple.com has a favicon. Thanks, guys.

Same here, Safari update did not solve the grey icons problem.

finally fixed with the latest update! (Safari 16.3.1 / macOS Big Sur 11.7.4)

Yes, they've addressed the problem and as far as I can tell, things are as they were. Icons now showing. Needed to update both Big Sur and Safari...took an hour or so.

same here..all fixed and so pleased

Problem fixed for me too after recent updates. Thank you all guys.
