Can't update Safari 5.1.10 for Snow Leopard

On several websites it says that I need to update my browser.  When I click the links, they take me to the Apple website and all it does is tell me to download the regular version of Safari 5.1.10 NOT THE UPDATE.  There are several sites I need to use, that I can't.  Any suggestions?

You need to upgrade the computer’s OS or switch browsers. To upgrade, open the Mac App Store and try downloading Yosemite. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Xeon or Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) CPU and 2GB of RAM, and if it does, click here and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
Back up your data and check your applications for compatibility before upgrading. In particular, Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC programs such as versions of Microsoft Office prior to 2008.

    Not if you have a PPC machine. In that case your are at the limit. But if you have an Intel model:
    Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard — Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
               terms apply.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service — this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor

    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.

  • Safari 5.1.8 for Snow Leopard available

    But only as part of a recent security update. Still, those still with Snow should take advantage of the security upgrades that we thought would not happen.
    Available through Software Update.

    Are you kidding?  That would be a HUGE step backward.  It's almost as if Apple snuck this into the security update just so they could sabotage Safari for Snow Leopard.  Is Apple that desperate to get us to leave 10.6.8 and go to Mountain Lion?
    It's really screwed up that I'm now going to avoid a security update just because Apple decided to sneak a Safari update inside of it.  This is a highly unusual and suspect way to "update" Safari.
    Can anyone else verify tking13's issue?

  • Safari Extension - Google Reader for Snow Leopard Not Installing

    Google Reader for Snow Leopard is not installing on my 10.6.4 system with Safari 5.01. It just claims to be "Installing"...forever.
    Anyone else have this problem?
    Steve

    Hi Steve,
    Go to the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab. Quit Safari. Now go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.safari.plist to the Desktop.
    Relaunch Safari and see if that makes a difference. If not, move the .plist file back to the Preferences folder. If you can install the Google Reader extension, move that .plist file to the Trash.

  • HT4363 my macbook pro has 10.5.8 -can't update to 10.6-which is snow leopard i guess?? anyway of doing this without spending more money..just bought apple tv , got 2 ipads and 2 iphones?? an old mac book pro is stopping my ability to homeshare

    I just bought apple tv......trying to use homeshare-computer won't cooperate.....have 2 i pads, 2 iphones and can not get my macbook pro-(10.5.8) to update to snow leopard (10.6) which is what seems will make homesharing work between all these apple products. It looks like I have to buy some software to update the computer. Anyone else have this issue or suggestions or even know what I am talking about?? try to update software to snow leopard and it won't allow me to...this is an old macbook pro  but I paid almost $3000 for this computer a long time ago...find it hard to believe that I can't update without spending a million dollars??? thanks.  Mary

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    I'm not entirely sure I follow you here, home sharing comes with iTunes 10.2, so far as I am aware even iTunes 10.6.1 only requires OS X 10.5.8 or better. On that basis I'm not sure why you think you have a problem.

  • Can't update quicktime or java I have snow leopard

    I have a mac mini intel box with snow leopard (used to be leopard). I recently changed from opera to firefox and the plug in checker is complaining about having a outdated version of quicktime and java. I did software update and it says no new software available. I have quicktime 7.5 I guess-whatever came with the lion os update cd disc. Going to sun for java I find they don't support anything older than lion. Must I now buy lion just to stay secure ?. I can't afford a new mac. And don't want to have to rebuy all my programmes again and lose my files. Maybe lion will let me keep my programmes and files like snow leopard did.
    Is the plug in checker just being incorrect? I disabled java for the time being. But I can't remove quicktime. I use it a lot.  I have a intel core 2 duo processor and 1.5 gig of ram. I guess I could up it to 4 gig if I had to "upgrade" os yet again. There's nothing that really interests me in Lion or Mavericks but I don't want security issues--I'll just try to disable the silly gingerbread in the new os's if possible. I don't use social media, or stream to a tv or media box.  And I'm to poor to own a smart phone or ipod or ipad. My computer is my tv. I don't want my internet connection to slow down due to stuff I never use connecting to the internet in the background.

  • How can I update to Java 7 jdk on snow leopard?

    I am ready to scream at this point.  I have a mini mac with snow leopard 10.6.5 installed.  It has java version 1.6u22 INSTALLED.  I would like to install version 7 of the jdk but I have searched the web for hours now, looking to see if I can do this and I cant see how to.  I dont understand why???  If I was running ubuntu, I dont think I would have this issue ot even windows.  Now that saying something.
    Hope you can help.

    The short answer is that you can't.  Apple supported Java directly up to Java SE 6.  They have now stopped supporting Java and begun to support the Open Source Java.net technologies project (which is basically the FOSS spin-off of Oracle for Java).
    The Java.net current version of Java SE 7 is available for distribution via Oracle (and developer previews are available from Java.net).  However, it requires OS X 10.7.2 or higher.
    I'm not sure if you can update your current version of Java SE 6 to the latest version if you update the OS to 10.6.8 (although I suspect that you can), but there is no path to reach Java SE 7 outside of an OS upgrade that I know of.
    Cheers.

  • Can't open new windows in Safari 5.1.2 for Snow Leopard

    I have downloaded the 10.6.8 combo update and of course installed the new version of Safari.  Now I cannot open a new window (whether it is a link or if I do apple-n on the keyboard).  I must be missing something here that must be very simple to fix this, but I have tried everything.  I might have to find an old link to a 5.1.1 site and download that version again (it was working fine before I downloaded the new version)
    Any help would be appreciated!  THANKS!

    Try emptying the cache and resetting Safari.
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache. Try a new window.
    If that didn't help, back to the menu bar, click Safari > Reset Safari. Select the top 5 boxes, click Reset. Try again.
    If that didn't help, go to ~ / Library / Caches / com.apple.Safari / Cache.db
    Move the Cache.db file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash and restart your Mac.
    Try again.

  • Can't update macbook 10.5.8 to Snow Leopard 10.6.3

    Instalation stops just after it starts. Is there any ideas what to do? I have tried everything that I could find in forums but still does not want to upgrade. It spins and after couple of tries it ejects itself.

    Ok, just got off the phone. So far it seems that I was able to to get it working (As soon as I typed that, My screen saver turned on, and I though my computer failed again. Ahh!)
    Anyway, What they had me do was this:
    -Turn off computer.
    -Turn on computer, and hold down the 'Option' key.
    -Keep holding until you see the Icon of your drive.
    -Insert disk.
    -A CD icon should pop up. Click it and press enter(return) on your keyboard.
    It should then Turn the screen white with the apple logo, blue, and then bring you to the installing menu. The woman at tech support said that a language section should pop up, but it didn't for me. We assumed that it just read the settings from my old OS. It should then start the download. So far I'm more than halfway done with the download, farther than I have gotten before, so thats a plus.
    Hope that helps!

  • Create boot disc for snow leopard

    Can you create a boot disc DVD for Snow Leopard without the original intallation copy?

    No. You need the installer DVD that came originally with your computer or a retail disc with a later version of OS X. The current retail Snow Leopard DVD installs 10.6.3. If your computer came with a later version of Snow Leopard, then you will need the DVD that came with your computer.

    I have updated from Snow Leopard to Lion with Safari Version 5.0.5. Now I can not update to Safari 5.1. There is no update in the Software Updater, and on the apple-download page, I only found a Safari 5.1 for Snow Leopard. When executing it, there is an error message, that it is for 10.6 only.
    It seems that I should have first updated Safari, and then only to Lion, which I didn't. Any idea how I can fix this now without having to rollback to Snow Leopard, update Safari and then go back to Lion?

    Try this Safari5.1 from the installer package

    The download worked better with Firefox not sure why. At the bottom of the page after the captcha>> slow down load is the Free link,  it took about 4 minutes to download on my test.
