One of Safari 5's new features that Apple is touting is the 'Safari Reader,' which allows you to focus on the content of an article and leave out flashing advertisements, links, and polls, and other sidebar information that accompany most Web content these days. The feature is welcome, but some people are having a confusing time figuring out exactly how it works and when it will work.

The process is simple:

1. Go to a Web site
2. Click on an article so it is the only loaded article
3. Click the 'Reader' button in the address bar when it appears (or use the 'View' menu or Shift-Command-R)

That's it! Safari will load the reader viewer and fade out the actual Web page to the background, allowing you to scroll through the article contents (including relevant images) without all the clutter of links and ads. The reader is a separate window entity that, like a print dialogue box, travels with the window itself and just overlays the current window contents.

This feature is very similar to the 'RSS' function where available feeds for a site can be accessed by clicking the 'RSS' button that will appear in the same location. In addition to reducing clutter, the reader is particularly useful for getting rid of those in-line advertisement links that will activate and show pop-up windows when you mouse over them.

Despite the simplicity of the reader, it will not work in some cases:

1. One article at a time

   The primary reason for the reader not being available is if you are viewing a page that has more than one article on it. For instance, here at MacFixIt (or any other CNET site) if you are on the main page you will see multiple articles listed and the reader will not be available. In this case, the 'RSS' option is shown since the articles are listed in series and we have an RSS feed available for our site.

   To see the reader, click on any article and wait for it to fully load. The reader button should appear and allow you to view the text with minimal formatting and styling.

2. No frames

   It appears the reader targets the main page content, and therefore will not work (or at least not work well) on Web sites where the article content is being displayed in a frame. Unfortunately most people will not be able to tell which sites have this; however, you can look in the page's source code (right-click and choose 'view source') and search for the <frame> or <iframe> tags.

3. Flash or other media delivery

   A number of sites use alternative methods than straight HTML to format their content, Flash being a prominent one. If a Web site is using Flash or another plug-in for displaying its content, then the reader will not be available, or if it is, will not show the flash-based content in the article.

Addendum: To a few readers who e-mailed me about this feature, I stand corrected that this does not require specific HTML5 code. It will or should work on most Web sites that are coded with standard div tags to separate the main content of a single article from the rest of the page.

The best browser for your Mac is the one that comes with your Mac. Safari is faster and more energy efficient than other browsers. Handy tools help you save, find, and share your favorite sites. Built-in privacy features help keep your browsing your business. Apple Pay in Safari lets you shop safely and simply. And Safari works with iCloud to let you browse seamlessly across all your devices.

Privacy and security aren’t just something you should hope for — they’re something you should expect. That’s why features to help protect your privacy and keep your Mac secure are built into Safari.

Intelligent Tracking Prevention.

Remember when you looked at that green mountain bike online? And then saw annoying green mountain bike ads everywhere you browsed? Safari uses machine learning to identify advertisers and others who track your online behavior, and removes the cross‑site tracking data they leave behind. So your browsing stays your business. And now Safari keeps embedded content such as Like buttons, Share buttons, and comment widgets from tracking you without your permission. We know you’ll like that.

Fingerprinting defense.

When you browse the web, the characteristics of your device can be used by advertisers to create a “fingerprint” to follow you online. Pdf reader pro for mac. Safari now thwarts this by only sharing a simplified system profile, making it more difficult for data companies to identify and track you.

Private Browsing.

When you use Private Browsing, Safari doesn’t remember the pages you visit, your search history, or your AutoFill information. You can also use DuckDuckGo, a built-in search engine that doesn’t track you, to make your web searches private, too.

Sandboxing for websites.

Sandboxing provides built-in protection against malicious code and malware by restricting what websites can do. And because Safari runs web pages in separate processes, any harmful code you come across in one page is confined to a single browser tab, so it can’t crash the whole browser or access your data.

Protection from harmful sites.

Safari helps protect you against fraudulent Internet sites and those that harbor malware — before you visit them. If a website looks suspicious, Safari prevents it from loading and warns you.

More secure passwords.

Safari works hard to make sure your passwords are robust and unique by automatically creating and storing strong passwords for you. Once stored, your passwords will autofill across all your Apple devices. And in Safari preferences, you can see any passwords that have been used more than once and easily update them. Security has never been so user friendly.

The fastest way to browse on a Mac. And faster than any Windows browser, too.

With a blazing-fast JavaScript engine, Safari is the world’s fastest desktop browser, outperforming both Mac and PC browsers in benchmark after benchmark on the same Mac.¹

Browse longer. Watch more.

Safari is optimized specifically for Mac, so it’s more efficient than other browsers on macOS. And Safari plays HTML5 video — the format used by your favorite streaming services — whenever it’s available. So you can browse the web for up to four hours longer and stream video for up to two hours longer than on any other browser.²

Stop auto-play videos.

Safari prevents unexpected and unwanted videos with audio from automatically playing while you browse. Just click the play button if you want to view them. Have a favorite site where you always want videos to play? Use per‑site settings in Safari to enable media auto-play.

Your Mac has always been the perfect place to sit down and do some serious online shopping. And it’s an even easier and more secure place to pay using Apple Pay in Safari. Look for Apple Pay on your favorite shopping sites, then complete your purchase with Touch ID on your iPhone or MacBook Pro with Touch Bar, or by double-clicking the side button on your Apple Watch. Your credit card details are never shared when you use Apple Pay, and your transactions are protected with industry-leading security.

Not only does Safari come on every Mac, it comes on all your iOS devices. And thanks to iCloud, your passwords, bookmarks, history, tabs, and Reading List are always up to date no matter which device you’re using.

The best browsing experience.

Features in Safari help you surf smarter and easily manage and share what you find.

Safari tabs. Turn on website icons in tabs in Preferences to easily see what you have open. Pin your favorite sites and they’ll reappear in tabs every time you open Safari. You can also mute the audio on any tab right from the Smart Search field. Perfect for stopping the music without having to hunt for where it’s coming from or, if you prefer, silencing all the audio from your browser at once.

Per-site settings. Personalize your browsing experience in Safari with settings for individual websites, like page zoom level, location services, and content blockers. So each website appears just how you like it.

Reader. Always on. Automatically use Safari Reader for every web article that supports it, so you can read without ads, navigation, and other distractions. Customize your view by selecting your font size and style, and choose Sepia and Night themes.

AirPlay web video. Play video from a web page to your TV with Apple TV — without showing everything else on your desktop. Just click the AirPlay icon that appears on compatible web videos and you can watch your video on the big screen.

Picture in Picture. Float a video window from Safari over your desktop or a full-screen app. Play the video in any corner of the desktop and resize it to see more or less of what’s behind it. So you can watch videos while you browse photos. Or catch up on your favorite show while you catch up on email.

Safari suggestions. With Spotlight built into every Mac, you’re never far from the information you want. As you type in the Smart Search field, you’ll see Safari suggestions from sources like Wikipedia, news sites, Maps, iTunes, movie listings, flight status, weather, stocks, and sports.³

Share menu. Share anything you come across on the web without leaving Safari. Just click the Share button, then choose how you want to send it off. Use Mail, Messages, or AirDrop or add it to a note. Tweet or post to Facebook and even include comments and locations.
