10.5.2 Update and Safari 3.1 Freeze Screen

When 10.5.2 was released, I updated it immediately using the software update link, but unfortunately it freeze my screen using Safari, Yahoo Messenger and other programs (two connection LAN & Dialup - both freeze screen). Below are what I did to the computer trying to install this 10.5.2:
1. Install 10.5.2 using the software update link... freeze screen!
2. Reformat, reinstall 10.5, then go to Disk Utility and repair the authorization before updating to 10.5.2 combo that I downloaded (as per the advise of other)... again freeze screen!
3. Reformat, reinstall 10.5, install 10.5.2 combo and omit the Graphic Update... again freeze screen!
4. Reformat, reinstall 10.5, install 10.5.1 then install 10.5.2... again freeze screen!
5. Yesterday, I saw an update of Safari 3.1 and Security Update, but unfortunately I cannot install those two update unless I install 10.5.2. So again, hoping to fix the freeze screen problem, I reformat again and install all the necessary update... again FREEZE SCREEN USING SAFARI... I don't know the other programs because I'm tired of testing this 10.5.2. Why Apple release a Security Update and Safari 3.1 only for 10.5.2?
Well, I think I'll just follow the suggestion of other that stay with stable OS X 10.5.1.
If you have any other solution, I would appreciate.
Thanks.

Tiger going crazy on iBook G4 with new security update and Safari 3

I'm running 10.4.11, 1.42GHz PPC G4 with 1.5GB of SDRAM.
So I ran software update where I noticed new Security Update and Safari update.
I tried to run the new Safari - Nothing, it's dead, no action! ( could hear hard drive but no action)
Today I tried running 'Software Update', it's spinning it's wheels, over and over again.
I'm sure Apple is working on sending me an email, as they got the skinny when the program crashed I forwarded the system message.
So a bit frustrated hear, I'm using Safari and getting to know Camino.
The Biggest frustration is that 'Mail' will not boot up so I use my internet to check mail, bummer.
So lets hope we get some info soon.

If you are operating behind a proxy server, maybe this will help.
With regards to crashes from behind a proxy server, I came up with a work around!
I have been using Automatic proxy configuration using a .pac file. That seems to be causing the error.
After inspecting the .pac file, and following the if, ifelse path, at the very bottom is a proxy address and port for unclassified connections. Mine looks like this
proxy.sun.ac.za Port :####
I have put this into my System Preferences for all connection types, manually. This is found under, System Preferences: Built-in Ethernet: Configure Manually...
Then you need to go through the box on the left and check each box. As you do so, paste the default proxy address and port in the open boxes on the right.
Hope this work around helps. My Quicktime is still not working for my older .avi files.

It's not uncommon for it to not work the first time and sometimes, you have to try it a few times. Turn off your antivirus software and your firewall while you are trying to restore the iPad. Enable them again after you restore.
If that still won't work, post back with detailed information as to what exactly does happen as you go through the process.

I did a system update and now my computer freezes every minute

As we speak my computer is freezing at 1 minute intervals. It works fine for 1 minute and then stops anything I am doing (even if not online) and the rainbow circle comes on for another minute freezing anything I try to do. This is continuing as I am typing this, making this a long process. I think it has something to do with my system update.
I did a system update last night and it said it was going to install and restart my computer. But an hour later when I checked on my computer it had been stuck on the outerspace screen with nothing on it so it never restarted and I had to turn it off manually. After I turned it on myself I noticed it acting this way so I thought maybe it was because it could not restart to complete the update proccess so I tried to restart it but the computer would only get stuck on the same screen again. I tried it several times, it wouldn't shut down or sleep either when commanded to. I let it rest all night and this morning tried to restart it again and finally it did but the freezing continued. I don't know what is wrong or what to do. I have to type up a lot of homework and I cannot do it if it freezes on me while typing and if I try to save and it freezes again. Help!
I also looked for more system updates and it said it was already up to date.

No, it is set up to only sync selected books. But I even tried to just remove all books and not sync any and it won't let me do that. It always acts like it is syncing correctly, then all of a sudden all books I'm trying to remove get selected again.
I have a total of 20 books. 9 books are on the phone. I am trying to remove all but one of them and then add one other that currently isn't on the phone. I tried removing the ones I don't want first and syncing with the intention of adding the one I want after the others are removed. It wouldn't remove them. I tried unchecking the box that tells it to sync the books at all and remove everything and when I hit sync it just reverts back to the checked box and the 9 original books.

HT4623 I started an update and now I have no screen?

I started an update and walked away, now I have no screen. Any suggestions?

Youre basically in recovery mode. This could have been caused by an error or data interruption. Youll have to restore the phone.

ITunes updates and Safari

Does anyone know of a way to have Apple's automatic updater to stop pushing Safari on me by default? Right now, I have to remember to uncheck the Safari check box each time the auto-update program runs to make sure I don't get it installed.
As a side note, I think this approach to jamming Safari down the throats of Windows users crosses an ethical line. At best, it's very consumer unfriendly.

Programs => Uninstall Apple Software Update.
I just download the standalone version. iTunes seemed to ask if I wanted auto updates, file assoc. and more just before the install began, but QuickTime did not. There was no asking about or custom install.

IBook OS X updates and Safari Streaming Video Hesitations

8/18/2009. Friends, two questions really. First, I have an iBook (2004) with OS X 10.5.4. I think I would like to update with the latest Safari 4.0.1 (or whatever). Its requirements state OS X 10.5.7. Can I just update with OS X 10.5.7 directly or do I need to go through 10.5.5 then 10.5.6 first?? And then install Safari 4.0.1? Second, I can stream videos without interruptions on my PC with Windows XP Professional OS. But on my iBook with Safari, there are frequent interruptions as the iBook struggles to download and keep up. How do I improve this? Do I need to download Adobe Flash Player 10 ? Many thanks for replies. Chuck Yopst, Chicago

8/18/2009. Ooops. I think I just answered part of my question. My present Book OS is OS X 10.5.6. But the question about streaming videos still remains. Again, many thanks. Chuck Yopst, Chicago

Apple software update and safari not working

Apple software update says "could not connect verify a connection with the app store". Safari wont even display google. Both apps open up initially.

OS 10.3.7 update and Safari https

I have a G5 at work and a G4 and G3 at home. I ran the automatic 10.3.7 update through software update on the G5 and G4 then noticed them both having the same problem. No matter what browser I use (i.e. Safari, Internet Explorer, Firefox, Mozilla) I can't connect to secure sites, any sites with https.
On the G5 I have a WAN internet connection and at home on the G4 and G3 I just got Direcway satellite internet service. Both computers were accessing the internet just fine until I ran the OS update. Direcway was able to bypass the problem but now my (very expensive) satellite internet access is sooooo sloooowwww at home. I can't even connect through Safari at work. I am running 10.3.2 on the G3 at home and it connects to the secure sites but is slower than it was before.
I am running the most up-to-date Java and cleared the cache as the "safari is super slow" posts suggested. However I haven't re-installed the update yet. Please help! I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.
I noticed "Our House" user is also on Direcway, how is your service?

After delving deeper into this issue, I've narrowed it down to some problem with how Safari is querying DNS when opening an HTTPS web page. If I use the "host" command to determine the IP address, and then type https://12.8.192.15 (or whatever is appropriate) the page will load at near normal speeds. Of course, I get a security warning that the identity can't be verified.
I also ran "tcpdump" and compared http/https while opening the same site. Regular http will make one basic DNS query to my primary ISP server, gets a result, and then starts loading the page. Https, makes many different queries to all three of my ISP DNS servers, some appear to work and some seem to fail and then it finally loads the page. Several make reference to AAAA records which usually means IPv6 is involved. This was disabled on my network interface based on other thread suggestions. I don't really understand why Safari would perform different DNS resolution based on the protocol.
The final piece that may have significance is I know the sites with problems have some type of load balancing. This usually means a CNAME record is returned by the first DNS query. Again, I don't know why the difference in protocol would affect this, the browser should just get the address and run with it.

Just installed latest update and safari/reader isn't rendering fonts properly - anyone else?

It's immediately pixelated all text in safari normal or reader mode

Have you restarted your iPad or Quit safari and then restart?
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
In order to quit Safari - Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
You can try a reset as well.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Ipod Mini will not update and sync without mac freezing up

My ipod mini (4GB) cannot hold all my music so I have to single handedly sort out music i want and don't want. So, one day i decide to click 'restore' so i can just drag and drop playlists. Ever since then itunes freezes up when i plug it in and now it won't recognize it. The only way i can get itunes to respond is by unplugging my ipod mini. Then itunes is fine, like nothing happened. Also i have the most up to date itunes software. i don't know what to do.
Please help!!

Whats the difference between a combo update and using software update?

I keep my Macbook up to date by checking regularly via software update, so far with no mishaps, but I have seen people on these forums mentioning that a it is better to download the combo updates direct from Apples website. Is this true, if so why, and what is the difference? I am thinking of installing Leopard which would then probably need updating to the current version, so what is the correct way of doing this?

There are no guarantees, but following this procedure when installing updates and upgrades on your Mac, or even re-installing them, will go a long way towards avoiding unpleasant after effects and ‘post-update stress disorder’.
It is also worth noting that it is an extreme rarity for updates to cause upsets to your system, as they have all been extensively beta-tested, but they may well reveal pre-existing ones, particularly those of which you may have been unaware. If you are actually aware of any glitches, make sure they are fixed before proceeding further.
So before you do anything else:
If you can, make a full backup first.
Turn off sleep mode for both screen and hard disk.
Disconnect all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
1. Repair Permissions (in Disk Utility)
2. Verify the state of your hard disk using Disk Utility. If any faults are reported, restart from your install disk (holding down the C key), go to Disk Utility, and repair your startup disk. Restart again to get back to your startup disk.
At least you can now be reasonably certain that your system does not contain any obvious faults that might cause an update/upgrade to fail.
3. Download the correct version of the COMBO update from the Apple download site. If your car runs on gasoline you would not want to fill the tank with diesel, so don’t try to install the PPC updater on an Intel Mac!
The 10.4.11 Combo Updater for PPC Macs is here: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx10411comboupdat eppc.html
And for Intel Macs: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx10411comboupdat eintel.html
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.
More information on using Software Updater here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1338
Using the Combo updater ensures that all system files changed since the original 10.4.0 are included, and any that may have been missed out or subsequently damaged will be repaired. The Delta updater, although a temptingly smaller download, only takes you from the previous version to the new one, i.e. for example from 10.4.10 to 10.4.11. Software Update will generally download the Delta updater only. The preferable Combo updater needs to be downloaded from Apple's download site.
Now proceed as follows:
4. Close all applications.
5. Unplug all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
6. Install the update/upgrade. Do not under any circumstances interrupt this procedure. Do not do anything else on your computer while it is installing. Be patient.
7. When it ask for a restart to complete the installation, click restart. This can take longer than normal, there are probably thousands of files to overwrite and place in the correct location. Do nothing while this is going on.
8. Once your Mac is awake, repair permissions again, and you should be good to go!
If your Mac seems slightly sluggish or ‘different’, perform a second restart. It can’t hurt and is sometimes efficacious!
9. Open a few of your most used applications and check that all is OK. In this connection please remember that not all manufacturers of third party applications and plug-ins, add-ons, haxies etc, will have had time to do any necessary rewrites to their software to make them compliant with the latest version of your operating system. Give them a weeks or two while you regularly check their websites for updates. This applies particularly to plug-ins for Safari 3.
N.B. Do not attempt to install two different updates at the same time as each may have different routines and requirements. Follow the above recommendations for each update in turn.
Lastly, Apple's own article on the subject of Software Update may also be useful reading:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106695
If you are updating Safari (or just have):
Input Managers 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 you have installed an OS update and 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 or, if you downloaded it, Safari 3.0.3 beta. Safari 10.4.11 used Safari 3.0.4 which was not a beta. If Safari 3.1.2 on 10.4.11 is not the fastest browser you have ever used, then something is wrong!
Moreover, trying to revert to Safari 3.0.4 (or worse still, version 2) when running 10.4.11 or 10.5 can have repercussions, as Safari 3.1.1 uses a completely different webkit on which other applications like iChat, Mail and Dashboard Widgets etc also rely, and may entail you having to reinstall an earlier operating system.
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. Two such add-on that have been frequently mentioned here for causing such problems are Piclens and Pithhelmet. If you have them, trash them.
Additional tips on software installation here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106692
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:
• /Library/InputManagers
• ~/Library/InputManagers
especially prior to system updates (they can always be added back one-by-one later).
