How To Change Homepage In Safari Web Browser [Tutorial]

You can use any webpage as your homepage, and have it shown when you open a new window or a new tab.

When you launch Safari, you can choose any page you like to display when you open the browser. For example, if you usually begin browsing with a Google search, set the Google homepage as your default. If the first thing you do when you go online is check your email, tell Safari to go to your provider's site.

Traditionally, a homepage is the first website your browser loads when you start it. But by default, Safari on Mac opens up a window of Favorites instead. If you’d like Safari to start with a website of your choice, follow these simple steps.

First, open the Safari web browser by clicking its icon in the dock, by using Spotlight Search, or by selecting it from the macOS Applications folder. From there, navigate to the page you’d like to use as your home page. It can be any website you want.

I can't change it, the space where u pu in the link shows as if it was blocked by some other homepage, and its like a generic search engine.

So, when I OPEN SAFARI, it opens to the Home page I want it to open to. THat is set. However, what I'm trying to do is, after I close out all the pages open in Safari, it always goes to the page that is listed first in my favorites Bar! I hate this! Why would it do that? I want it to just return to that one page I have it open to. (Which by the way is my email)...thanks!
