While working on your Mac computer, you may find that Safari is refusing to launch. If its get launched in anyway, it stops unexpectedly. There does not seem to be any particular reason for the issue, but once it occurs, the browser just stops responding.
The problem continues despite user running the permissions fixes and trashing the preference file or Safari and even after reinstalling the application. Sometimes it works when you log on from another account, but you should not migrate to another account for fixing the issue.
Some of the affected users have found that the issue is with the history, cache and temporary files. The problem could also be due to cookies and plug-ins like other Internet resources.
In such situations, you can’t even use the “Reset Safari” option of your browser and if you don’t have another browser installed, you may fall in grave problems.
For accessing the Internet, it becomes very important to fix this issue as soon as possible. There are four possible fixes of this problem:
Ø Remove History- Go to the users-> user name-> library-> safari-> folder and remove the following files:
-> history.plist
-> lastsession.plist
If these two files are corrupted, then Safari may not work properly.
Ø Resent history caches- Remove the cache by locating to user-> username-> library-> caches-> metadata-> safari-> history and remove all the contents of the folder. When these files are damaged, the Safari may catch problems while loading.
Ø Remove Cookies- Navigate to cookies.plist file, which is located in to the users-> username-> library-> cookies, and remove it.
Ø Remove Internet Plug-ins- If you have installed any third party plug-ins, remove them. If the plug-ins are troublesome, the problem may come.
After removing all these files, you will possibly be able to use your Safari browser as usual, without getting any trouble.
Although, these methods work in all of the cases and possibly fix every problem, yet they can also lead to the serious problems of data loss. Removing the browsing history, cookies, plug-ins and cache is not accepted in anyway and can put you in need of Mac data recovery.
Mac data recovery is potential through the systematic scan of the affected hard drive and the same task is done by the Mac data recovery software. Mac recovery software are the powerful data recovery software which perform data recovery Mac in an easy and effective way.
