Not able to change my homepage.

I have tried to change the homepage in Safari Preferences but have not been successful. Safari always goes back to the original homepage. Any help/advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

Never got to step 2 because in Step 1 after I put in my password I never got a response and waited for 1 hour and 55 minutes once. If after putting in the password you hit return then you get a new line ending in a dollar sign $ but hitting return is not in your directions so it is false and that is how I thought I was ready for step 2. But when I was waiting 1 hour and 55 minutes I went to quit terminal and a message appeared saying quitting would cause the running process and it stated that the running process was login,bash, sudo. Thought that meant something but if none of the instructions are for OSX 10.6.8 it means nothing.


I have an older Mac Mini running 10.4.11. Will these instructions work on that computer for getting to the point to change my homepage on that computer?


First I would like to resolve the problem with the MacBook running 10.6.8. Sorry for the confusing that I created.

Your response seems to confirm that you reported something that wasn't true. Either that, or I'm failing to understand you. Either way, I don't think I should waste any more of your time trying to help when I have no idea what's going on. I suggest you make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store for someone to help you in person.
