This project has made it possible for me to run and test some of the latest software from Apple - namely Safari 15.</p> -<p>I ran into a small bug early on though – Safari extensions couldn’t be activated via the preferences menu. Luckily I discovered a very simple fix. My hope is this might help others (as small of a demographic that might be) who run into the same issue with the Catalina Patcher.</p> -<ul> -<li>Close/Quit Safari completely</li> -<li>Open the Finder and use the shortcut <code>⌘ Shift G</code></li> -<li>Paste the following to navigate to the proper folder: <code>~/Library/Containers/com.apple.Safari/Data/Library/Safari/AppExtensions</code></li> -<li>Open the <code>Extensions.plist</code> in your favourite text editor (I’m a big fan of Panic’s Nova)</li> -<li>Below each extensions <code><dict></code> tag, add the following: <code><key>Enabled</key><true/></code></li> -<li>Save the file and relaunch Safari</li> -</ul> -<p>Reference of what it should look like (AdBlock for this example):</p> -<pre><code><key>org.adblockplus...</key> - <dict> - <key>AddedDate</key> - <date>2021-09-23T14:00:47Z</date> - <key>Enabled</key> - <true/> - <key>WebsiteAccess</key> - <dict> - <key>Allowed Domains</key> - <array/> - <key>Has Injected Content</key> - <true/> - <key>Level</key> - <string>All</string> - </dict> - </dict> -</code></pre> -<p>After following those simple steps you should have working extensions in Safari. Have fun on your old, “unsupported” Apple devices!</p> -<footer role="contentinfo"> - <h2>Menu Navigation</h2> - <ul id="menu"> - <li><a href="/">Home</a></li> - <li><a href="/projects">Projects</a></li> - <li><a href="/uses">Uses</a></li> - <li><a href="/wiki">Wiki</a></li> - <li><a href="/resume">Resume</a></li> - <li><a href="/colophon">Colophon</a></li> - <li><a href="/now">Now</a></li> - <li><a href="/donate">Donate</a></li> - <li><a href="/atom.xml">RSS</a></li> - <li><a href="#top">↑ Top of the page</a></li> - </ul> - <small> - Built with <a href="https://barf.btxx.org">barf</a>. <br> - Feeds: <a href="/atom.xml">Atom</a> & <a href="/rss.xml">RSS</a><br> - Maintained with ♥ for the web. <br> - Proud supporter of <a href="https://usefathom.com/ref/DKHJVX">Fathom</a> & <a href="https://nextdns.io/?from=74d3p3h8">NextDNS</a>. <br> - The content for this site is <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/">CC-BY-SA</a>.<br> The <a href="https://git.sr.ht/~bt/bt.ht">code for this site</a> is <a href="https://git.sr.ht/~bt/bt.ht/tree/master/item/LICENSE">MIT</a>. - </small> -</footer>
