Can't download Safari because Windows Installer can't be accessed

Any help would be appreciated as to why by computer can't access Windows Installer?
Thanks

Is that on a 64-bit system, john?
If so, even though it's about a different application (and even if you're on Windows 7 rather than Vista), I'd try the following document:
Vista Home Premium (x64) and installing Itunes - SOLUTION
The theory here is that last time I checked, the SafariSetup.exe installer include a 64-bit bonjour installer (for installs on 64-bit systems). So in principle, the same problem as discussed in the link can hit a Safari install (even though I'm not sure I've seen an example of it in the flesh before).

Downloading Safari via Windows computer

Hi all
I want to download the standalone installer of Safari 3.1 for Mac via a Windows computer, but all the links take me to the Windows download page.
Does anyone have another link?
Thanks
Stefan

I have the opposite problem I am trying to download Safari for windows from a Mac but apple has introduced this block now so you can only download files relating to the operating system you are using!
direct links for Windows simply load the mac version on a mac and direct links for the mac version download a windows version on a mac.
This restriction is frustrating at least, some of us like to have flash memory with BOTH verions on so we can use it on whatever version of machine we have and diret downloads is not often possible due to firewalls. Please Apple remove this OS specific restriction give us back our links to the other operating system

I recently downloaded safari for windows on my computer.

Hello my name is Alexandra,
I downloaded safari for windows on my computer about a month ago. It worked fine until a couple of days ago. I can't view any of the images, even the images on the apple home page. How can I fix this?

Welcome!
First, see that images are enabled. Do Edit menu > Preferences and click the "Appearance" tab. There is a box labeled "Display images when the page opens" that needs to be checked:

I have used PCs for years, and still do at work. But, last year my wife bought me a 15" MBP with the anti-glare screen (I was getting ready to buy for myself). It took me all of 1 week to completely get used to the UI for OS-X, and now I really prefer it over the Win7 UI. I have no experience with Win8. Here are my thoughts:
1) You can get a good computer using either a Win8 machine or a Mac.
2) You will pay less for an equivalent PC. But not as much less as some would have you believe. You need to take into account the all aluminum body of the Mac (vs most PCs being plastic) and the size of the display. And, don't forget that there is a lot of bundled SW on the Mac that you will actually find useful and would have to purchase for the PC.
3) You can probably do everything you need on the PC platform with the right SW (you probably already know this since you are using one already).
That said, I think some things are easier on the Mac. For example, GarageBand is a standard part of the Mac SW installation. I got up and running recording directly from my bass into a track with a song imported from iTunes on another track in a snap. I only had to purchase a Jam adapter ($99) for the bass so I could come in over USB instead of using the audio in port (which did work, by the way). You can do the same on a PC, but you have to purchase the SW from somewhere. And, it probably isn't cheap.
I use VMware Fusion to run those Win programs I already owned because it was much less expensive to buy Fusion than to replace them.
I would not return to a PC for my own use, given a choice. But, I would be very careful about getting my wife a Mac without careful thought as she is not as tolerant of learning new things as I am.
So, there you go.

Can't Download Safari for Windows from a Mac

Hello All,
iTunes is no problem, but Safari and QuickTime won't let a Mac download the Windows versions. With iTunes, one can click a link to go to the Windows version, but there is no link for Safari or QuickTime. I have a stand-alone Windows XP SP3 computer. Although I don't use it on the Internet, I test web sites locally on it, so I need Safari to ensure compatibility. Does anyone know how to get to the Windows version from a Mac?
Jim

Sanjac--
I'm not sure you can; it's determined by your op system. Even if you could load Safari for Windows on a Mac, you'd actually have to be running Windows--and if that were the case, I suspect you wouldn't have had to post the question.
Best of luck-
Doc

Can't Download Safari $ on Windows Vista

I click "Download Safari 4" and it goes to a new page that says "Thank You For Downloading Safari 4" but Safari 4 isn't downloaded on my machine.

I am having all kinds of trouble with 10g XE on Vista Ultimate 64-bit. The first time I tried to install it caused a blue screen during the service registry, causing me to have to manually delete the services (sc delete from the command line) before reinstalling. The second time it states that it installed successfully, but now it is missing most of the essential files like EXPRESS.DBF, SYSTEM.DBF, CONTROL.DBF etc. so I cannot mount the database. I tried running XE.bat manually but it complains that these files are missing. I googled on how to create these, but most are restore oriented. What I read describes running commands to create them from the database, but since I don't have a database mounted I am out of luck. I think I will uninstall and try to reinstall one more time tonight. Wish me luck! :)

Trouble downloading Safari for Windows

Hi, I did move out from US, to Latin America. Since that, I had been trouble trying to download the Safari English version; but neither Apple support page nor CNET, Softonic, etc., files servers web sites, allow me to get the right version requested, instead I got always the Spanish version. Does somebody knows how to solve this matter?
Thanks

Doublechecking ... are you sure you want to install Safari for Windows? Apple stopped development on that quite a while ago. If you want to use a webkit-based browser, it might be safer to use Chrome, from a security standpoint.

I can't download Safari because I need OSX 10.6.7, BUT

I'm running 10.6.8. I can't figure this out. Safari got deleted off of my computer and I'm trying to reinstall it, but that isn't working. How do I reinstall it?

Install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo
Then restart your Mac. Launch Safari.

Downloading Safari For Windows On A Mac?

Is there a way that you can download the Windows version of the Safari installer while using a Mac?
Every time I try, it takes me to the Mac page with only options to download for Tiger or Leopard.

If you are running Safari 3.1 and enable the Develop menu from the Advanced Preferences, you can temporarily tell web servers that you are actually using a Windows version of Firefox. Doing so will let sites that customize page delivery like Apple's present the Windows-specific pages.

although it hasn't been updated in 18 months, so you're safer using a different browser.
