If you have upgraded to Safari 12 by then, you will need to install the AdBlock app from the Mac App Store. If you're still using Safari 10 or 11, you can either install the AdBlock app from the Mac App Store or install the self-hosted extension. If you're still using Safari 9 or earlier, you will need to install the self-hosted extension. In the Safari app on your Mac, choose Safari Preferences, then click Websites. On the left, click the setting you want to customize—for example, Camera. Do any of the following: Choose settings for a website in the list: Select the website on the right, then choose the option you want for it. Program Roles. When you enroll in the Apple Developer Program, Apple Developer Enterprise Program, or iOS Developer University Program, you automatically become the Account Holder for your membership. If you’re enrolled as an organization, you have the option of adding additional members to your team. The role you assign them controls access to the development and distribution tools included.

Safari Extensions are add-ons that work within Apple’s Safari web browser to add functionality not found in the basic browser. In the past, selecting Safari > Safari Extensions pointed users to a web page filled with extensions to browse, select and install. Apple has now added a link to that web page (see screenshot above) that points to a new area in the Mac App Store where you can now look for extensions, try or buy them, and install them with a click.

The Safari Extensions page in the Mac App Store looks like any other app page, but all of the “apps” are specifically designed to work within Safari. Not all extensions that have been developed or available over the years are on this page, as it appears that Apple might be working with developers to improve both the quality and marketability of extensions. Many extensions were free in the past, but a look at the Mac App Store listing shows that a number of the listed extensions are for-purchase or can be tried and then activated with an in-app purchase (see image below).

The new Mac App Store page may be a way for Apple to expose more Mac users to the benefits of Safari Extensions. The next logical step would be for Apple to include Safari Extensions as a category in the store.

Plug-ins

Safari supports the plug-in for Adobe Flash Player but no longer supports other plug-ins. The Plug-ins setting appears only if you have the Adobe Flash Player installed.

Websites use plug-ins for video, animation, or other special content. Some plug-ins may track your browsing history.

To disable a plug-in, deselect the checkbox to the left of the plug-in’s name. If a plug-in isn’t listed, see If a plug-in is missing.

For each website, choose the option you want:

  • Ask: When you visit the site, Safari displays a placeholder instead of the plug-in content. You can click the placeholder to allow the website to use the plug-in.

  • Off: When you visit the site, Safari tries to load the content without using the plug-in. If the site requires the plug-in, Safari displays a placeholder instead of the plug-in content. You can click the placeholder to allow the website to use the plug-in.

  • On: Safari lets the site use the plug-in, unless it’s blocked by macOS File Quarantine. For more information, see the Apple Support article About the “Are you sure you want to open it?” alert.

For more security options, hold down the Option key, click the pop-up menu, then choose a policy:

  • Enable Security Protection: Safari prevents the site from using the plug-in if it’s blocked by macOS File Quarantine. To run the plug-in, deselect Enable Security Protection. Deselecting Enable Security Protection may present a security risk, so choose this option only for a website you trust.

  • Run in Safe Mode: Safari lets the site use the plug-in but runs malware checks. To run the plug-in outside of Safe Mode, deselect Run in Safe Mode. Deselecting Run in Safe Mode may present a security risk, so choose this option only for a website you trust.
