Can't upgrade Safari from 5.1.7 to 5.1.10 in SL

Hello,
Have been trying to download and install the update to 5.1.10 for Safari in Snow Leopard. We're using 5.1.7 now. But in trying to open the package downloaded from here (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1569) we get the alert that we need to be running OS 10.6. And then the install quits. Is there a bug here or do we need to clear out something?
We're trying this because using Yahoo mail has become virtually impossible. It is incredibly slow, stacking mail incorrectly, no idea if mail is being sent out, folders are becoming garbled, etc. If someone knows of a fix for that too, I'd be grateful.
Thanks in advance.

Well, all I can say is "whoops".
We have 2 macs here, both are having the same huge issues with Yahoo mail on yahoo.com. One is running Snow Leopard, but apparently, the one I was asking about is running Lion 10.7.5. Apologies for the mixup.
However... that doesn't solve the problem.  I still can't update Safari 5.1.7 to anything else, like 6.1 or whatever works best with 10.7.5. Nothing shows up in the Software Update menu, there is no download on apple.com, and I'm not at all sure if 6.1 is less stable than what I've got now (or if Yahoo mail is even compatible with it).
Any clues?

  • Can I upgrade directly from ColdFusion 9 Enterprise to ColdFusion 11 Enterprise without going to 10 first?

    Can I upgrade directly from ColdFusion 9 Enterprise to ColdFusion 11 Enterprise without going to 10 first?
    For those who have done this,
    1.  What quirks did you find that you had to overcome in your installation (I know that everyone's environment is different and produces differest results)?
    2.  What part of your code broke for which you had to find fixes?
    Tips and suggestions for a smooth installation, besides following the installation document.
    Thanks!

    Create a car (archive file) in CF 9 enterprise which will capture all CF 9 settings like Data sources, Web services etc. Make sure when you are doing this, pop up blocker is disabled.
    NOTE : While creating the archive file, give the full name with the absolute path in the package name. For example C:\Test\mypackage.car
    Then move this car file into the server where you want to install CF 11. Install CF 11 and then  deploy this archive (car) file. All CF 9 settings will be migrated to CF 11 enterprise.
    Else, if you want to install CF 11 on the same server where CF 11 is installed, then remove the connector for all the websites which are configured with CF 9, make sure the CF 9 services are running and then run the CF 11 installer and at the end of CF 11 installation, you will get a dialogue box which will ask you to migrate CF 9 settings in CF 11.
    Run the Code Analyzer in CF 11 Administrator to check whether any the CF 9 code used in your application is breaking in CF 11 or not

    You can't remove any of the built-in apps, including Safari. You can hide it via Settings > General > Restrictions > Safari 'off', but the app can't be deleted.

  • How can I stop safari from auto completing url's on my iphone 4 and ipad2?

    How can I stop safari from auto completing url's on my iphone 4 and ipad2?  On both devices I have cleared history, I have gone into settings-safari-and cleared history and cleared cookies & data, tried turning my devices on and off and I also have private browsing turned on. Both devices are operating on iOS 5.  When I type in a url I don't want anything to show and auto complete.  Any suggestions?

    This indicates corrupt files.
    A restore should resolve.

  • I'm still using Snow Leopard because heard too many horror stories about upgrading to Lion. But I can't upgrade Safari unless I upgrade OS. Is Mavericks any better than Lion?

    I'm still using Snow Leopard OS because I heard too many horror stories about people upgrading their OS to Lion.  But I can't upgrade Safari anymore unless I upgrade the OS. I get messages constantly telling me I need to upgrade my web browser, and have increasing problems correctly viewing pages (like L.A. TImes, NY TImes) because Safari needs upgrading.
    I can't really tell what the advantages are to upgrade to OS Mavericks or OS Yosemite because it seems most are intended for mobile apps, and I only use my desktop.
    My last upgrade to SNow Leopard wiped out 2/3 of my iPhoto collection. No idea why and no fix. Macs used to be the epitome of compatibility for upgrades — not anymore.
    What are my options? What issues would I encounter if I upgrade OS to Mavericks or to Yosemite? WHat are likely problems, advantages and disadvantages?
    Thanks for any help sent my way.

    If you do want to upgrade.
    Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion/Mavericks/Yosemite.
    To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information.
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) model number 7,1 or higher
    Your Mac needs:
    OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
    2 GB or more of memory (More is better - 4 GB minimum seems to be the consensus)
    8 GB or more of available space
    Check to make sure your applications are compatible. PowerPC applications are no longer supported after 10.6.      
    Application Compatibility
    Applications Compatibility (2)
    Do a backup before installing.
    One option is to create a new partition (~30- 50 GB), install Mavericks, and ‘test drive’ it. If you like/don’t like it it, you can then remove the partition. Do a backup before you do anything. By doing this, if you don’t like it you won't have to go though the revert process.

  • Can I upgrade directly from CS3 to CS5?

    Can I upgrade directly from CS3 to CS5?

    Deactivate CS3 on your old computer. Install and activate CS3 on your new computer. After you have done that, you can upgrade to CS5.
    From the forum thread posted earlier: If CS3 is detected by the installer as being already installed in the machine, it will read the old serial number transparently and will prompt you only for the serial number for CS5.

  • HT5568 I have Mac OS X 10.7.5- can not download safari from anywhere, what should I do?

    I have Mac OS X 10.7.5- can not download safari from anywhere, what should I do?

    Safari is part of OS X 10.7.5, and your downloads should be via  > Software Update...
    Can you provide some details on why you're trying to download Safari?  Did Safari get deleteed from the dock or from the /Applications folder?  Is Safari failing somehow?
    There are ways to re-load Safari using the standard updates, if so.  That usually involves re-applying the combo update kits, but I'd not start with that as a suggestion without knowing a little more about what's causing you to seek to re-download Safari...
    And FWIW, and this may well be obvious to you, but — based solely on your phrasing, as I don't know how familiar you are with this stuff — recognize that sites claiming to offer {Safari or other web browsers, video codecs, flash players, system performance accellerators, anti-virus software,  cache cleaners, games, whatever} can be distributing malware for OS X.  Once the tool is downloaded and installed and authenticated, then the tool can do whatever it wants.  Put another way, please don't try downloading Safari from anywhere.  Please get Safari only from the Apple web site.

  • HT4854 Can I upgrade directly from OS X 10.6.8 to Mountain Lion

    Can I upgrade directly from OS X 10.6.8 to Mountain Lion??

    Yes, you can, but make sure your machine meets the system requirements:
    http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
    When you upgrade, you need to do the following:
    1) Check all your software for compatibility with the new system.
    2) Repair the hard drive with Disk Utility.
    3) Make a full backup of your whole system using Time Machine.
    4) Ideally, make a second full backup of your whole system using something else, like Carbon Copy Cloner. (I consider two backups to be the minimum.)
    5) Wait until you have time to deal with any possible problems that crop up.
    6) Install the upgrade.
    Some people recommend erasing your hard drive and installing the new system "cleanly." That certainly helps ensure that you don't have any problems with the new system, but is often unnecessary. I prefer to save clean installs for when they are actually necessary, but that is only an opinion. You can certainly choose to do a clean install if you prefer.

  • Can I upgrade directly from elements 3 to the latest version?

    Yes. But compare prices. Sometimes sites like Amazon have a lower price for the full product rather than the upgrade version. They are identical; so buy whichever is cheapest.

  • Can I upgrade directly from..?

    Hi,
    I have a Panther 10.3 full version and I have purchased Tiger 10.4 a couple of months ago which is an upgrade version. I haven't got the chance to install it because I am moving to another country.
    I would like to know can I upgrade directly from 10.3 or I have to upgrade step by step till 10.39?
    Thank you

    Well, according to Apple's Tech Specs for Leopard (http://www.apple.com/macosx/techspecs/), you'll be just fine if you upgrade directly.
    I would upgrade to Tiger first though, and play it safe.

  • Can I upgrade straight from 3.0.19 to 3.6.10 without losing bookmarks, history etc

    Can I upgrade straight from 3.0.19 to 3.6.10 without losing bookmarks, history etc? I can't afford to lose all of these as they are work-related.

    All your bookmarks history etc... is stored in your user profile on your pc, not in the install directory of firefox so when you install a newer version it only over writes the files in its install directory and not your bookmarks etc...
    There is also some add-ons that can backup all your user data so that you can restore them later.
    or
    If you want to be safe you can manually backup your profile before you begin the upgrade.
    On Windows Vista or 7 you will find your profile at;
    C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<random-generated-profile-name>.default
    On XP I believe it is at;
    C:\Document and settings\<username>\Application Data\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<random-generated-profile-name>.default
    Just copy the contents of the above folder to somewhere else on your hard drive and if your bookmarks didn't copy over then you can manually place the files back into the above directory.
