    Opening MacRumors in a new tab logs me out (under 14.6 (18F71))

    Anyone else getting this? I’m logged in in one tab, I long-touch a link to open it in a new tab and in that tab I need to re-log in and enter my MFA token again.

    Safari Private Window stopped working

    I updated to macOS 11.3 a couple of days ago. Today, in Safari, I tried File | New Private Window. Nothing happened. Closed Safari. It won't open when its icon on the dock is clicked. Not until I quit Safari and start again. Machine reboot doesn't fix this. Anybody else have this issue?

    I would like to see more customization come to Favorites in Safari. Currently, if a website doesn’t have a default icon image, the first letter is displayed.

    I've recently implemented a lazy image loading feature on an image-heavy website, and have been having issues with reflow. I fixed the problem by manually specifying the image dimensions using the `width` and `height` image attributes, as below: <img class="lazyload img-fluid"...

    I have a subtly unique and weird problem with a crucial web-based service not working correctly on three Macs, while performing fine on two other Macs and on PCs. Before I wipe and start fresh on the 3 Macs, I hope someone might have another idea. The problem: We use a big web app service to...

    Automatically sort bookmarks in Safari

    I'm surprised I cannot find a simple utility to keep bookmarks sorted automatically. My long-standing favorite, Bookmark Sorter, has been working perfectly until MacOS 11.3, but I think it's abandoned and I cannot get any response from the developer on their site or via Twitter. Its options are...

    Adding file types to Safari's safe-open list (Big Sur)

    Anyone know how to add file types to Safari's list of safe-to-open files after downloading? I'd like to add Citrix .ica files. I've seen examples of how to do this on older versions of Safari & macOS, but reports say they do not work on Big Sur. And before I go with trial and error, I'd like to...

    Recently purchased an iPhone 12 Pro, moving from an iPhone 7. Both running IOS 14. I have restored my iPhone 12 from the iPhone 7 backup (backup created on my MacBook).
