Spent some time trying to find a Safari download site with no success. Where is the iMac Safari download site?
Spent some time trying to find a Safari download site with no success. I found lots of Safari sites but no Safari download site. Where is the iMac Safari download site?
(The following does not apply to users of Lion OS 10.7 or later)
If your Safari keeps crashing, or if you are updating Safari (or just have) and it is misbehaving:
N.B. Never delete Safari, never run it under Rosetta, don't use proxy settings, and don't change the application's name or move it from the top level of the Applications Folder to a sub-folder.
(If you prefer to download updates via Software Update in the Apple menu (which would ensure that the correct version for your Mac was being downloaded), it is not recommended to allow SU to install major (or even minor) updates automatically. Set Software Update to just download the updater without immediately installing it. There is always the possibility that the combined download and install (which can be a lengthy process) might be interrupted by a power outage or your cat walking across the keyboard, and an interrupted install will almost certainly cause havoc. Once it is downloaded, you can install at a time that suits you. You should make a backup copy of the updater on a CD in case you ever need a reinstall. Alternatively you can download Safari directly:
Safari 4.1.3 for Tiger can be downloaded here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1069
Safari 5.0.6 for Leopard can be downloaded from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1422
Safari 5.1 for Snow Leopard can be downloaded from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1070
Make sure you download the correct version for your system.
Also, observe the recommended procedure for installing software: repair permissions and close all applications, install, then repair permissions again.)
Input Managers and other plug-ins from third parties can do as much harm as good. They use a security loophole to reach right into your applications' code and change that code as the application starts up. If Safari is crashing, the very first thing to do is clear out your InputManagers folders (both in your own Library and in the top-level Library), log out and log back in, and try again.
So, disable all third party add-ons before updating Safari, as they may not have been updated yet for the new version. Add them back one by one. If something goes awry, remove it again and check on the software manufacturer's website for news of an update to match your version of Safari. Remember: Tiger up to 10.4.10 used Safari 2.0.4, Tiger 10.4.11 uses Safari 4.1.3, Leopard uses Safari 5.0.6, and Snow Leopard uses Safari 5.1.x. If these latest versions of Safari are not the fastest browser you have ever used, then something is wrong!
(Trying to revert to a previous version of Safari can have repercussions, as previous versions of Safari used a completely different webkit on which other applications like iChat, Mail, Dashboard Widgets etc also rely, but if you really want to do this post back for instructions on the safe way to do so.)
Most errors reported here after an update are due to an unrepaired or undetected inherent fault in the system, and/or a third party ad-on. Add-ons that have been frequently mentioned here, among others, for causing such problems are Piclens, Saft, AcidSearch and Pithhelmet, and the dreaded CT Toolbar. If you have them, trash them, and go the developer's sites to see if new versions are available for the latest version of Safari on your current operating system.
You must also ensure that you have downloaded and installed all the correct version for your Mac of Security Updates. These require a restart and a permission repair.
To reiterate, Input Managers reach right into an application and alter its code. This puts the behavior of the affected application outside the control and responsibility of its developers: a recipe for problems. That's not to say that issues absolutely will ensue as a result of Input Managers, but you, as a user, must decide. If the functionality of a specific Input Manager or set thereof is really important to you, you may well choose to assume the associated risk.
Again, the advice is to remove all Input Managers from the following directories:
Hard Disk/Library/InputManagers
Home/Library/InputManagers
especially prior to system updates and updates to Safari (they can always be added back one-by-one later).
Lastly, the Safari updates require a restart of your Mac, and sometimes even a double restart is required.

My touch scree will not work at all. It just stopped one day and has not worked since. I've tried numerous times to restart it but with no success at all. The only tning I haven't tried is resetting it back to it's original setting when I bought it 2 years ago> Any suggestions??

Trying to download some adobe files, but find that safari doesn't do it. Any ideas??
If you are trying to download flash player then you can't - it's not supported and probably never will be (http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/ and Adobe have failed to create a version that works on iOS), and you can't download extensions/plug-ins via Safari anyway (you can only install what is available in the App Store).
The Skyfire, iSwifter, and Puffin browsers work on some flash-based sites (but not judging by their reviews), or you could look to see if the sites have their own apps in the store. -

I'm trying to sync my ipad over wifi, with my MAC, I have the updated software on my MAC, the ipad is up to dat 6.1.2. I can follow all of the steps, but I can't find a SUMMARY button on the toolbar, nor do I receive the option to sync. What am I doing wrong or what should I look for? Thank You
To sync your iPad over Wifi:
First ensure you're running iTunes 11.0.2. And you already have your iPad up to date, good.
Plug your iPad into the Mac via USB. Click your iPad in the top toolbar (under the search bar). Click the Summary tab if it isn't already selected. Check the box to "Sync with this iPad over Wi-Fi" (you may have to scroll down to see it). And now click the Apply button at the bottom right.
You should be able to unplug your iPad from the Mac and it should still remain in iTunes. (If not, try Quitting and relaunching iTunes and waiting, restarting iPad, etc).
To initiate a sync over Wifi, click your iPad in the toolbar in iTunes then click Sync. Or on your iPad, go to Settings > General > iTunes Wifi Sync and tap "Sync Now."
If this didn't solve your problem, please let me know with a more detailed explanation of what you're experiencing so I can try to help you get up and syncing wirelessly! -

Can't believe that I can't run music videos simultaneouslly on ipad. ust spent 2 days trying to do it. Downloaded 2 Apps but they just keep freezing. Come on Apple this must be easy to fix!
first then this is a user helping forum only users like you read or write here if you want apples ear
http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html
other then that it's unclear what you are trying to do or if it's 1 or 2 things
playing music videos simultaneously would imply you trying to play more then 1 at once, this is not something it support out of the box I'd say.
then there is the 2 apps, are you refearing to apps which should let play many music videos at once?
and do they freeze when you try to download them, or when you try to start them,
and maybe the name of the apps, in question would make it easier for people to help. -
I have been trying to publish my podcast to iTunes with no success – I keep getting the following error message
We could not complete your iTunes store request. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation. There was an error in the iTunes store. Please try again later.
New to all this and would really appreciate some help.
Thanks in advance
PS: I should say that I have an ITunes account - I have full permissions over the website etc. I am using Powerpress plug in on a wordpress site.My guess would be that you've fallen over a glitch in the Store, in which case all you can do is wait a bit and try again, but it is only a guess. Without being able to look at your feed it's not possible to say whether there might be a problem there.

Take some time to get to know Safari 4
There are no immediate problems that I can really find in the all-new improved safari 4. Most people are bellyaching because they don’t want to accept change, but rather be stock, in the old ways, they grew accustom too. Can any one of us change yesterday? No I think not, so why not just accept the new change, and give your self some time to get use to it. Change is uncomfortable for any body. Today, no body wants to spend the extra time to lean and be open to new changes, and because of that, people are having all sorts of problems getting around the new changes that were implemented in safari 4. If we spend a little time and be a little more patient about change, maybe safari will not be so hard to figure out.
Well said t&t and I'm 100% with you. I can't fault Safari 4 and am already so used to it that it's just like an old friend, but with a **** of a lot of improvements under the hood that people can't see and if they can't see it they won't believe there has been any change. Lot of people here do have genuine issues with their systems but so many just can't accept the slightest UI change or it's the end of the world as they know it. But each to there own, just glad to hear a positive comment here in the E.R.
Cheers
