How to Fix Safari ...

[vja4Him]

Something is terribly wrong with Safari ...

I keep getting a error message:

"Safari can't connect to the server."

"Safari can't open the page "http://www.apple.com/startpage/" because Safari can't connect to the server "www.apple.com".

Doesn't matter which webpage I try to access, Safari doesn't work anymore.

I've tried deleting the Cache, Cookies, plist.

I just deleted Safari altogether and all Safari files that I could find, emptied the Trash, then downloaded the most recent version of Safari from Apple, and installed.

Still have exactly the same problem.

Several days ago, I Reset Safari, which fixed the problem for a couple days. I've tried to Reset Safari many times today, but still have the same problem ....

Is this an issue with Snow Leopard 6.8? Any ideas how to fix this issue ... ???

I have had many problems with Safari. Unfortunately, I never figured out how to fix any of them. I use Opera and Chrome.

I opened up an e-mail message in Mail, and clicked on one of the links in the message, which opened up Safari!

Safari is working again .... I'm wondering if Safari might have a bug ... I tried going back to an older version of Safari, but none of the previous Safari versions will work on my Mac Pro, because I've update to 10.6.8, and all the older versions of Safari are specific to only a certain Operating System.

Just when I though that Safari was working ok, it is now doing exactly the same thing as before ....

I've tried deleting the plist many times, resetting
Safari many times, clicking on links in my e-mail messages and other
active links, which open Safari, but it still will not work. Restarted my computer, but that also did not help.

Looks like the newest version of Safari has some very serious bugs ....

Hopefully the developers will fix this bug soon ....

One other note:

All day yesterday up until late last night, Safari was working just fine. I shut my computer down last night, then when I booted up this morning, Safari would not work.

Could this somehow cause Safari to not work ... ???

Maybe Safari will mysteriously start working again ......

I’ve reset Safari anywhere from every few days to every two weeks, depending on my surfing habits. If I didn’t Safari would slow to a crawl and I’d end up using firefox. It’s the only thing that does the trick.
