Safari crashes on launch

Safari is crashing as soon as I launch... bounces on the dock a couple of times and then I get the "problem report for Safari" popup.


I tried deleting everything in library/Safari and did a complete disk/permissions check and everything seems OK. Any ideas? Crash log text below.


Thanks for any ideas!

Thanks for the idea. I followed your link and tried to reboot in recovery mode... but all I get is a regular boot.


I then rebooted safe mode... (using MacPilot) and the machine wouldn't boot at all... progress bar would get to about 30% and then the machine would reboot in an endless cycle. Single user boot was ok.


Was able to break the loop by booting single user and nvram boot-args="", regular boot is fine.


I see several applications are crashing in the same unexplained way (MS Office, lightroom, safari). Other apps seem to be fine (firefox, MS live sync, skype...)


Either I misplaced my "recovery" CD/DVD or the machine didn't ship with one. Its only a couple of months old, no idea what the problem is. I've run disk util, memtest... all seems good but the system is unusable.


Where to go from here?

Macs come with Lion pre installed now without optical discs. That's why you have to use Lion Recovery to reinstall apps and repair the disk.


Not sure why you're using a third party utility to startup in Safe Mode. All you have to do is hold down the Shift key. Starting up in Safe Mode


If you can't use Lion Recovery, then take the Mac to an Apple store or Apple certified repair shop.

I couldn't (and still cannot) boot into Lion recovery.


I ued the shift key boot into safe mode... that didn't work, it started trying to boot safe mode and ended up doing a regular boot. Thats why I tried using a third party tool, but agree that made matters worse not better (had to figure out the command to change boot params back from single user mode) because "forced" safe boot was in an enless loop.


I made a carbon copy clone of the entire disk when new, so I should be able to recover myself from that and backups though it will take a very long time. I'll also stop by the store I bought it from a few months ago, see what the charge for fixing is.


Thanks!

I was having similar problems with Safari. I was really starting to pull my hair out!!!


BUT - it is working now!!! Here is what I did:


1. I ran MacKeeper to clean everything I could - a free alternative that works well is Onyx (I really like Onyx except that it does not have antivirus protection)


2. Using Disk Utility run Verify Disk and then Repair

run Verifiy Disk Permissions and Repair


3. Delete Caches

you>Library>Caches

your ox drive>Library>Caches

Yes, just erase ALL of the elements in Caches (I was nervous about this so I saved a copy - it was not necessary)


4. Do a PRAM reset

- Restart your computer, as it restarts hold down Command+R+Option+P - yep, hold down all 4 at once as it starts up and hold them down until the computer "chimes" a second time.


- just doing this helped my computer that would no longer shut down correctly, but I still had the Safari problem so we continue:


5. Just to be cautious it is always good to make sure that you have done a recent backup of everything - you ARE using time machine right? 😉


6. Do the Lion Recovery but explained simply if you are like me and your computer was delivered with Lion installed and you have a functionning internet connection ....

- Restart your computer while holding down Command+R until the apple appears (Make sure that you are holding down these keys BEFORE it boots up)

- the Mac OS X Utilities box appears

- Choose your main hard drive (where your OS X is) and follow the instructions to reinstall Lion - very easy


7. Now wait .... I have a household Wifi connection and it listed that it would take more than 4 hours. I don't know exactly how long it took because I went to bed and let it work.


All of your data remains intact - including your Safari Bookmarks.


In the morning my computer is working ..... dare I say it? ...... I don't want to jinx myself ........perfectly!! 😀


The first 4 steps may or may not be necessary but it did help with some other problems and it just makes sense to have the computer as clean as possible before reinstalling your OS.


Hope this helps you.


Have a great day,


Sandra
