Good morning everyone, For some time now I have used Yahoo UK as my home page (it rides piggyback on Safari). Now because of rumoured troubles in the Yahoo Camp I would like to use safari as my Home Page, so I click Safari top left of my screen and then Preferences then General. In the forth box from the top is a box labeled "Home Page" it has "https://uk.yahoo.com/" there in. I deleted that information and typed in "https://safari/ press enter and close the box then close safari. When I try to open safari I get "Safari can't find the server" I must be doing something wrong but do not have a clue as to what is wrong! How I get safari as my "Home Page" please? Simple question from a simple man!!!
Very best regards from Keith in Derby England.

Safari is a web browser, not a homepage. If you want a blank page to open up when you launch Safari, just leave that box labeled "Homepage" blank.
