Safari keyboard shortcut not working

I had the same issue

~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db

Deleting the Cache.db and restarting the Safari did not work for me.

So I went to Safari -> Preferences or ⌘,

Under Tabs

third box - Use ⌘-1 through ⌘-9 to switch tabs

uncheck it and it will work.

"uanant" describes another alternative:
Safari -> Preferences or "⌘,"....

Under Tabs....Go to the THIRD check-box (Use ⌘-1 through ⌘-9 to switch tabs)

Uncheck it and it WILL work :-)

From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.

Click: Remove All Website Data

Then delete the cache.

Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder

Type or copy paste the following

~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db

Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.

Quit and relaunch Safari to test.

You're welcome 🙂

I did this but now the shortcut takes me to active tabs, not bookmark bar items. Any ideas?

That function no longer exists in El Capitan. You can no longer use Command + Number to reach your bookmarks.

Try command - option/alt - # (number on Favorites bar).

Hello,

I followed the instructions, then the shortcuts worked for a while and, as usual, they don't work anymore.

I checke in my System Preferences if it was not a conflict between shortcuts, and it is not (no yellow warning triangles indicating any of them).

This problem occurred only since I upgraded to El Capitan (I now have version 10.11.2) and there are lots of other small, similar issues (Spotlight that sometimes "eat" the first letter of what I type, Wikipedia keyboard shortcuts that cease working too after a while, etc.).

Anymore ideas to solve at least the Safari shortcuts issue?

Thanks in advance and best regards,

Peter

That last one helped me. Thanks! Unchecking the box in safari prefs.

I describe the action as: Option + Command + 1 - 9 :-)

Spot-on, uanant :-)

.... but now ⌘-1 doesn't have any effect (only ⌘-2 - ⌘-9) :-(

check if you something else in your bookmark toolbar. I have El Capitan 10.11.4 and it is working.

if you have frequently visited sites folder etc in your bookmak then move it down the list. I have m

this is how my Safari toolbar looks and it works.

Gm = Gmail (CMD+1)

VS = Archive.org (CMD+2)

Y = Yahoo (CMD+3)

i = iCloud (CMD+4)

Az = Amazon etc (CMD+5)

etc works upto 9

All I had to do is go into Safari Preferences -> Tabs, and deselect "Use ⌘-1 through ⌘-9 to switch tabs", After that, ⌘+1, etc works as before.

I did not have to delete any website data or delete cache.
