Hi, I really haven’t messed with some of the other plist files, so can’t know for sure if they auto-regenerate like the plain old com.apple.safari.plist. You could, though, copy and paste them onto your Desktop, then delete the ones left behind in the Preferences folder. If Safari gets cranky

Nice thought, but deleting that file did not do it. Do you think I can safely delete all the other Com.Apple.Safari list files? Dave Carlson Engineer, Farfar, Woodworker, Pioneer, and Oregonian On Apr 19, 2022, at 10:33 AM, 'Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries wrote: Hi Dave, I am running a bi

I wonder if there is a relation to your Text Edit getting corrupted and your Safari not displaying all options? Just a thought. I wonder if you can do the same clearing techniques for Safari? > On Apr 19, 2022, at 11:25, Dave Carlson wrote: > > Tim, > > With respect, I do not have those t

Hi, I apologize for coming in late to the party, so I hope that these suggestions are not repeats. First, I am in Monterey Dave, and the list of choices in those menus definitely has more than two choices. Here’s how I have mine set: 1. Safari opens with: A New page. A New Page Opens: Home

This is the Monterey operating system, latest version. Don’t know if that makes any difference. It’s very strange that I only have two choices for the start up pop up and neither one is blank page or no tabs. Even if I turn off tabs entirely it’s still insist on having only those two choices. Ma
