Nov 17, 2013 5:51 PM in response to Barney-15Eby Barney-15E,Secrets has an option to re-enable it: http://secrets.blacktree.com
I can't make the defaults command work, but the Secrets prefpane will enable it.

Jan 21, 2014 1:01 AM in response to Basiliskby francespreston,Have just spotted this thread regarding backspacing, and being a newish Macbook Pro users, unsure how to go about using this information.
I couldn't find the dialogue box illustrated by Barney.
Any advice please about locating this on my Mac?
Thank you

After clicking the link in Barney-15E's post, click the link at the top PrefPane 1.0.6 to download. UnZip the file, and open. If your MBP tell you it can't open it because it's an unknown developer, you'll have to go into System Preferences > Security & Privacy and Open Anyway (you should see towards the bottom that you tried to open Secrets). After that, Secrets should open itself. Find Safari on the left, scroll down under Safari 6, click the NO for backspace thingie, and change it to YES. Relaunch Safari, and it works!

Jan 25, 2014 11:24 PM in response to tickledcoralby francespreston,Thank you for your reply.
I clicked the PrefPane link and the file landed in Downloads. Do you open the file by double clicking as nothing seems to happen?
I looked at System Preferences, and don't see a download under any of the tabs.
Can you advise what I have done wrong?
New to Macs, aving been used to PCs previously.

Jan 26, 2014 12:20 AM in response to francesprestonby francespreston,Following your instructions, have now downloaded and installed Secrets, and located the 'backspace' line.
Do I just type YES to replace the NO which is already stated?
Thank you
