Safari Extensions Bug (PPC/OS X 10.5.8) - 06/12/10 11:06 AM
I've encountered a bug in Safari 5's View menu-> Customize Toolbar... sheet, involving Safari Extensions which place buttons in the toolbar, which is for me 100% reproducible. Here's what happens:
- An extension which places a button in the toolbar is installed and enabled. (So far, I've tried SnapBack, AdBlock for Safari, and Safari Reload Button.)
- From Safari's View menu, I choose Customize Toolbar....
- The Customize Toolbar... sheet appears, containing the usual array of icons, plus the icon of the extension in question.
- As soon as I move the cursor into the sheet, the beachball appears.
- Shortly thereafter (about ten seconds?), Safari quits.
- On relaunch, Safari appears to be running successfully, but my home page (Google) will not load.
- A subsequent quit and relaunch restores normal behavior.
Interestingly, I note that when an extension is enabled, not only does it appear in the Customize Toolbar... sheet as an individual icon, but it's also included in the "default set" at the bottom of the sheet. (I can hardly wait to see what that default set looks like when multiple extensions are enabled.)
I'm running Safari 5.0 (5533.16) in OS X 10.5.8 on a PPC Mac mini. Anyone else able to confirm or deny this bug?
