Safari 10 is now available as an update from App Store. Has anybody tried it yet? Any issues or concerns?

The only thing I have found that doesn't work are the videos on my comcast home page. They show as continuously loading. they work in Firefox. So far all other videos work. Youtube works fine as do various news services

I'm using Safari 10 with newly installed macOS Sierra. So far with my financial logins, through 1PW, I've not experienced any issues. (I checked all this morning.)

I also use Ghostery and AdBlock (free versions) and also haven't experienced any differences than previously with Safari 9.x

One thing I have noticed in Safari 10 is the text on websites is smaller and there does not seem to be a preference, as in the old days, to set the minimum font size.

You can send feedback to Apple here. I just submitted a comment, to the effect that I won't be upgrading to Safari 10 until this is fixed.

I haven't upgraded to Safari 10 yet (although I may install it in one of my clones to play with it) but I wonder if the font size issue is addressable with TinkerTool 6 for Sierra or older versions for previous operating systems. TT has a Safari tab that allows one to set default fonts and sizes but I don't know if it works with Safari 10.

Any brave souls out there who want to try it?

I trashed the Preference File for Safari and that fixed the Comcast Homepage Video issue. No other problems for me. I take it back trashing preferences only works part time and then stops working, Something keeps corrupting it on that one page

I just installed Safari 10, and I'm not really sure if the font size has gotten smaller or not, but it seems like I'm now seeing a brighter screen (Is it possible?), and if the font size is smaller it's unnoticeable to me.

I poked around a bit to see if Apple has moved the font size pref, and I didn't find it.

I just noticed that Safari > Prefs > Privacy no longer shows a count of how many websites have stored cookies or other data.

Clicking on "Manage Website Data..." now calls up a window that takes a second or two to populate with the same data that was immediately accessible with the old option (I forget what it was called.), and the options that "Manage..." used to offer are either gone or in witness protection.

Edit: It seems like Apple makes Safari a bit less user-friendly with each incarnation. frown

I just did a google search with Safari 10 and all the results come in nice like boxes. What is up with that and is there any way to change it back to the way it used to be?

I just did a Google search and didn't see anything like you've described; would you please post a screenshot?

In the meantime, oldschoogle may help.

There is no setting for minimum font size in Safari 10 or Safari Technology Preview. However "Zoom" is an alternative that is some ways superior. When you zoom a page to a comfortable size for reading using View ➭ Zoom In, ⌘+, or icon on a customized tool bar the zoomed view persists at least for that site even if opened in different tabs or windows. The advantage of zoom as opposed to minimum font size is everything on the site is zoomed appropriately and no matter how the site is coded there will not be any text cut off or overlapping an adjoining field.

Personally I would prefer the ability to set a default zoom to a minimum font size.

In Safari 10 it is no longer possible to disable individual extensions. You’ll either have to uninstall individual extensions (checkbox on the extension’s pref panel), or disable them all at once (option available under Safari’s Develop menu). In addition to being not very 'user friendly' (in various meanings of that term), this also makes troubleshooting a lot more troublesome. mad

Hmm. That's not the case here (Safari 10.0 in Yosemite).

You show my point: you can uninstall, but not disable (without uninstalling) from the pref pane.

From that screen shot, it looked to me as if you could uncheck a box (on the left side) to disable an extension.

Nope, dk is correct.

Note the check box to the left of each extension.

Edit: Crossed with Jon.

1. Upload your screenshot to FreeImageHosting.net.

2. FIH will return a long URL that will look like this: <a href="http://www.freeimagehosting.net/commercial-photography/texas/houston/"><img src="http://i.imgur.com/U4bjF9h.png" alt="Houston commercial photography"></a>

3. From that URL, extract and post only the blue portion. (Leave out the quotes.)

4. Post your link by utilizing the "Create a link to a webpage" icon...second from the left, above.

Edit: If oyur post is still editable you can add to it, and if not, you'll have to post the screenshot in a separate referenced post.

Command-T opens a new window rather than a new tab.

And not only that, it doesn't open an empty window, rather it loads the website I visited the previous time I hit command-T.

PIA!

Command-T opens a new tab for me. Are you sure you're not hitting Shift-Command-T?

Command-T has begun opening a new tab rather than a new window (actually, I think it's again), but it most definitely wasn't when I posted; I tried it multiple times and each time it opened a new window loaded with the website I had visited the previous time it opened a new window.

I might have quit and relaunched Safari in the meantime.

Command-shift-T does nothing.

Hmmm... I just noticed this: under "File", command-T is "New Tab", and under "History" it's "Reopen Last Closed Tab" (which command-Z used to do).

Dueling commands?

I give up. confused

OK, artie505, I hope I did this correctly. That site is very confusing.

Might be time to review your third-party shortcuts.

OMM, File -> New Tab is command-T, and History -> Reopen Last Closed Tab is shift-command-T. And shift-command-T works as expected.

From Safari keyboard and other shortcuts:

Reopen the last tab or window you closed........................Shift-Command-T
