You can try Safe Boot mode by holding down the Shift key at startup (it's quite slow). After that, log in and then restart normally.
If this doesn't work, try to take a look to this answer: https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/401179/safari-developer-menu-disabled
Other option may be updating Safari

I am using the latest iOS system for Mac, and have just finished completing all the updates.
I am trying to find the Developer Menu on the Mac, but I can't see it anywhere? Some have said if you just click Safari - Preferences there should be an option there, but I don't see it.
Any help would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Open the preferences, select the "Advanced" tab and check the "Show Develop menu in menu bar" checkbox at the bottom.
try to minimize the screen of safari after that next to the APPLE logo you will see that file, edit, etc... also Develop tab in menu bar
I am using xCode for the first time - since 1986 I've used other IDE's (turboPascal, JBuilder, Eclipse, NetBeans, Tibco BW...) but to the uninitiated Xcode seems reach new levels of awkwardness.
Every time I access help e.g 'API documentation help' the documentation screen obscures all other windows. Presumably there is a magic key that dismisses the documentation screen and return me to the main project screen. (Like a back button in a browser). I've tried many key combinations.
Is there a magic key that always gets you back 'as you were'?
You can set a shortcut to switch between the windows of the active app in System Preferences → Keyboard → Keyboard Shortcuts. I prefer Alt+Tab.
This will allow you to switch between the documentation and the editor window with a shortcut. You could also use Cmd+W to close the documentation window.
Use command + ~ to alternate between views, this works in every app on macosx.
How to perform right click through Keyboard in Mac Lion OS? Since I am keyboard loving person, I don't like all the time use mouse for right click. I found much of the shortcuts of Mac through googling, but I didn't found this one.
Finally I got my answer:
Go to System Preference --> Universal Access --> Mouse --> Enable Mouse Keys (ON)
This will Enable you Numpad keys. Press Ctrl + 5 for Right Click.
Fn-Ctrl-I on laptop

Solution in MacOS Catalina -
With every release, Apple is organizing all accessibility related controls under Accessibility in System Preferences. Steps to enable context menu (right click) with keyboard-
System Preferences --> Accessibility
Accessibility --> Pointer Control
Alternate Control Methods --> Enable alternate pointer control options
Select this checkbox to enable this option
Click on the options button next to this option --> Default for right click is F12
If use is restricted to Finder only and you do not mind incurring monetary costs, I would suggest the combination of Alfred and its workflow called RightClick. It works on Catalina.
In text editors like TextMate, pressing
COMMAND + R
will save the html document, switch to a browser like Chrome, and refresh the page.
So the question is, how does one use this keyboard shortcut to refresh the Safari browser within the iOS Simulator?
Is there another editor or program that's more interactive when developing for Safari on iOS?
Thanks for your help.
There's no shortcut within the simulator but if you set up Safari's enable Safari's developer tools (on your desktop) you can use that to debug the simulator. If you have dev tools open, the CMD + R shortcut will refresh the simulator.
Safari > Developer Tools > iPhone Simulator > name of your app
Then CMD + R will make it a lot easier for you!
there is no way to do this by default, but if you're comfortable with working in the shell (e.g. Terminal.app) you could look into something like this command line tool:

not sure if you can launch built in apps like safari, tho.
one thing that may be of use is that in desktop safari, if you enable the Develop menu you can set your user agent to be iphone/ipod touch/ipad. i'm not sure how accurate this is, but it might be faster for iterating. (if you don't see the Develop menu in desktop safari, go to preferences, select Advanced and make sure the "Show Develop menu in menu bar" checkbox is checked)
I am using Firebug with Firefox 3.6 on OSX 10.5.8. Since FF 3.6 there is a shortcut to activate fullscreen mode which is "shift" + "command" + "F". But it is the exact same shortcut of Firebug to launch "Display Element Information".
Since i never and don't really need fullscreen mode and use extensively the "Display Element Information" feature of firebug; i am trying to either change the firebug shortcut or disable the FF shortcut.
I tried finding something when accessing about:config but could not find anything relevant.
Does anybody has a solution or hack?
cheers
Change FireFox Shortcuts:
There is an extension called KeyConfig that allows you to change the keyboard shortcuts in FireFox. You can find it at the following URL:

Change FireBug Shortcuts*:
Open the FireBug Panel
Click the FireBug icon on the top left
Select "Customize Shortcuts"
Change the shortcuts you want then restart FireFox
*Note:
I am using FireBug 1.5
I am not sure if the option you want is in the list of shortcuts you need to change.
Hope this helps.
I think the shortcut you are referring to is actually part of the Web Developer plugin, not Firebug. Firebug has a simliar "Inspect Element" function that uses Ctrl-I.
If you don't want to install yet another plugin, just to change one shortcut, then you will have to change the Web Developer shortcut to something else.
I've tried overriding this behaviour using the OSX System Preferences, creating an Application-only shortcut to the menu item: Tools->Web Developer->CSS->View Style Information, but no dice. This plug-in, while one of the most useful that I've found, has always seemed kind of shoddy. It's rarely updated, and bugs seem to live on forever. It breaks every time FF is updated. etc etc. But I still love it.
Not sure which extension is causing this for you. Just checked Web Developer Toolbar and don't see Cmd-Shift-F anywhere.
One newer feature in Firebug is the Customize Keyboard Shortcuts preferences panel on the Firebug menu. Open Firebug, click on the Firebug bug icon menu in the top left of the panel and select Customize Keyboard Shortcuts from the menu that shows up. You'll likely need a restart for these changes to take effect.
Well, now i feel very stupid !!!!
Indeed it is a shortcut from the Web Dev Toolbar and not firebug. I used these 2 so much during a day of work that i forgot they are 2 separate add-ons.
I was able to change the shortcut via the "Options" menu of the Web Dev Toolbar.
And just in case someone changes a shortcut, remember to restart FF for the changes to take effect.
mea culpa.
But thank you every one for helping.
Case closed !
