I'm not a developer, it was updated by the Mac App Store. I do not have a Time Machine Backup to Restore from. I'm unable to Launch Safari at all (Using Chrome to get to this page). Spinning wheel turns forever.
What next?
Unfortunately, you will need to restore OS X using OS X Recovery.
Takes about 45 minutes on a broadband connection.
Hi all,
Instead of doing an OS X Recovery, here's what you can do to get Safari Running again.
Go to ~\Users\(youraccount)\Library\Internet Plug-Ins
Move everything in there to a safe location (i.e to your Desktop)
The new 7.1 Seed 1 does not support Plug-Ins. Removing them allows Safari to Launch properly.
You will be able to tell which plug-ins now will not work (the filenames usually gives an indication)
I'm hoping that Apple now releases a proper Safari for non developers.
I don't have Library]Internet plug-ins under my user account. Only on the main Macintosh HD. However, when I log in as a guest, Safari works fine, Otherwise I get the spinning wheel
the same here! Enyone?
Hi, the Library folder under your home folder is a hidden folder.
1. Launch Finder.
2. Navigate to \Users\(YourAccount)
3. Go to the Finder Top Bar, Select "VIEW" Select "SHOW VIEW OPTIONS"
4. A Toolbar will appear. Look at the very last item below. Tick on "Show Library Folder"
5. Follow my post above to remove (move it somewhere else) everything inside the "Internet Plug Ins" folder
Arnold, please try the above, and let us know your results. Thanks!
Sorry
What is show is this
Now feather options...
Please?
Open OS X Terminal (Programma’ ▸ Hulpprogramma’s) and typ this command:
chflags nohidden ~/Library/
it shows the hidden folders.
All the plugins removed from it and stil the same problem!
Help....
O... by the way command remove hidden folders is:
chflags hidden ~/Library
This didn't work on my Macbook. What did work was opening Finder, hold down Option button while choosing Go - Library. There I found the extensions file and moved it out of Safari. Safari now works perfectly. Life is good again - because Mozilla is far slower on the Mac. And I tried reloading the operating system, it was taking 6.5 hours to download and crashing before it got there. I need to get a Time Machine compatible storage unit, we use a Seagate one which isn't compatible
Hi,
Also no Su6!
Are there people with other suggestions? Hope so!
I'm using a MAC with OS X version 10.9.4.
Hope that Apple brings out a new update! PLEASE! After two days of hard work no success!
😢
Now response? Apple devlopers? Help... still the sme problem! Getting crazy!😠
Safari 7.0.5 released today. Install it and do a reboot. Reinstall your extensions (I could have re-copied, but I prefer to re-install the ones I need, and leave the rest alone)
All works fine now.
Safari 7.1 Seed 1 - Unable to Launch
