Q: Safari crashes in OSX Yosemite version 10.10.1

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:

☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)

☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select

          SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages

from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select

          View ▹ Show Log List

from the menu bar at the top of the screen.

Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try to launch Safari. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.

The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.

Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.

Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.

Some private information, such as your name or email address, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

Hi I had the same problem. Updated to 10.10.1. Safari is the only browser that crashes once I open it and a Problem Report is made.

Model: MacBookPro7,1, BootROM MBP71.0039.B0E, 2 processors, Intel Core 2 Duo, 2.4 GHz, 4 GB, SMC 1.62f7

Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 320M, NVIDIA GeForce 320M, PCI, 256 MB

This is what shows up for console messages:

Any idea whats going on? Have tried restarting and repaired disk permissions. Also turned of the save opened tab feature of safari.

Tried to reinstall OS (command+R on restart) and that wouldnt even work (install interrupted)...

Stumped.

Same as the other poster. You have Genieo installed and it's messing things up.

Thanks. I used this to uninstall it http://www.bitdefender.com/solutions/adware-removal-tool.html
