[QUOTE="Jack, post: 849756, member: 1"] Hello [USER=84649]@dienpyn[/USER], This is a known bug with Safari. Try these steps: [LIST=1] [*]In Safari, choose Preferences from the Safari menu. [*]In the window that opens, click the General icon (if necessary) [*]Enter your desired home page in the "Homepage" field, but DO NOT press return! [*]At the top of the window, click any of the other icons (eg, Tabs, AutoFill, etc). [*]You may see a prompt asking for confirmation for changing the home page. If so, confirm. [*]Switch back to the General page and check to make sure the home page has been changed. [/LIST] Next, let's check if there any malicious profiles installed on your Mac: [LIST=1] [*]Go to System Preferences. [*]Click Profiles. [*]The list will include an item “AdminPrefs“. Select this and click the remove “–” button in the lower-left corner. [/LIST] If there isn’t a Profiles icon, you don’t have any profiles installed, which is normal. Let me know if these steps worked. [/QUOTE]
