Cannot install safari 4.0.3 on mac os x 10.6

hey i'm having trouble installing safari 4.0.3 so that i can use itunes 9. when i open the install package just before installation, it gives me a warning saying that i cannot install safari 4.0.3 because i need to run mac os x 10.5.8 even though i'm running snow leopard. called apple but they cannot help since my warranty expired 3 days ago. PLEASE HELP!!

I see,
If you right-click on the Quicktime app, and choose "Get Info" check to see if it's Version 10.0 if it is, its Quicktime X.
I just checked, and the final "Gold Master" developer build of Snow Leopard was 10A432 so you are using an older build, and I really think you should get the final release - otherwise you won't be able to run Software Update in the future, and you might run into problems with your version.

  • "You cannot install Safari on this volume-" message.

    Hi,
    I just downloaded Safari 4 (running the Safari 4 Public Beta currently). However, when I go through the installation dialog, when I arrive at the screen to select the installation disk, I cannot choose my hard drive (startup volume) and get the following message:
    "You cannot install Safari on this volume. This volume does not meet the requirements for this update."
    Obviously my machine is compliant with the minimum requirements for Safari 4, so what could be the issue here?
    Thanks,
    Tom.

    Then try this:
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger and Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger, and 4.1 for Leopard) and/or TechTool Pro (4.6.1 for Leopard) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.

  • You cannot install Safari on this volume. This update requires Mac OS X 10.

    This is the problem I run into when trying to install Safari 3.1. Have tried several times with fresh downloads. What's worse is that I deleted the version of Safari I had prior to this, so now I have no Safari whatsoever. Anybody out there know how to go around this? I do have the newest version of Leopard.

    See my answer to your other post.

  • YOU CANNOT INSTALL SAFARI 1.2 ON THIS VOLUME  ??????

    WHEN I TRY TO INSTALL SAFARI1.2 I GET THIS MESSAGE
    YOU CANNOT INSTALL SAFARI1.2 ON THIS VOLUME. THIS SYSTEM CANNOT USE THIS SOFTWARE.
    WHY IS THIS HAPENING????
    IMac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   [email protected]

    You are likely to have a newer version of Safari installed already. So the Updater will refuse to install the older version. A requirement for specific system version does not automatically include all above releases as well. It says it require 10.4.2 and not "10.4.2 or above".
    Safari version 1.2 was for Panther (Mac OS X 10.3.x) only.

    Reason:

  • "You cannot install Safari on this volume. This volume does not meet the requirements for this update."

    I am trying to install Safari 5.05 for Leopard, but during the installation process, the error message above appears when selecting the volume to install it on.
    Apparently the minimum OS requirement for Safari 5 on Mac is 10.5.8, which my Mac has.  My Mac's processor is a 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (the default for one of the Intel Macs that came out a few years ago), which should be good enough for Safari 5.  I am attempting to install via an admin account.  There is nothing in Apple Software Update relating to Safari (the current working version of Safari that my Mac has is 4.05).
    Any help please?

    So, on that page I should click on the Download button to the right?  It just takes me to http://www.apple.com/safari/download/, where the "Safari 5.0.5 for Leopard" is what I initially tried, and is what resulted in the aforementioned error message during the installation process.  See below for screenshots of the installer error message and my Mac's details, respectively:
    I also tried the Snow Leopard and Tiger versions of Safari just in case those worked, but obviously I didn't have the correct Mac version, so I couldn't even begin the installation process.

    This isn't necessarily true. Some third party apps installed with Apple's Installer.app still place installer pkg files in /Library/Receipts/ & if present Snow Leopard's permissions repair still references them for correct permissions of the associated files.
    It won't help solve this issue but if any of these pkg files are there it does not indicate a problem & they should not be removed.

  • Cannot install Safari 4

    Hi-
    I have been trying to re-install Safari onto my computer, but every time I try, it tells me that I can't run the program unless I have OS 10.5.8 or higher. The thing is, I have upgraded to Snow Leopard from Leopard, and my computer says it has 10.6.1 installed. What is going on and how on earth can I fix it?
    Thanks

    HI,
    Reinstall the Safari app from the Applications folder on the SL disk.
    Insert the SL disk. Open the Optional Installs.pkg folder. The Installer will start... you may need to click the disclosure triangle to open the Appliations folder.
    When you are done, to the Apple Menu and run Software Updates. It's very important to keep your system software up to date.
    Then repair disk permissions.
    Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

  • Cannot install Safari update 1.3.1

    I just need a clear answer about installing Safari updates. There are 500+ posts about this. I could read for a full month and be so confused.
    I have a G5. Run version 10.3.9. Safari is 1.2 (125). Tried to update to 1.3.1. Computer will not let me install.
    What is the correction for this?
    G5   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    Hi Ann,
    Yes, there are a lot of posts on 1.3.1.
    Via the Finder, go to your /Library/Receipts folder and make sure there is no 1.3.1 Safari.pkg file. If there is, move it to the trash.
    To upgrade, you'll first need to apply the 10.3.9 combined update. This updates Safari from 1.2 to 1.3. While the update is running, do not use the computer for any other tasks (good upgrade strategy). Once completed and the computer restarts, "repair permissions" using Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    Next, apply the 1.3.1 update, followed by the 1.3.2 update. Once finished, again "repair permissions".

  • Cannot install Safari 4 on Mac OSX 10.4.6

    Installer gives error message; says the update requires 10.4.11.
    What's up?
    I had beta running fine. Then had system problems and did a clean install. Now can't install 4 or beta.

    Hi
    Go to the Apple Menu and Select About this Mac. Are you using 10.4.11 or some other version of OS X Tiger? If the latter, go to Software Update in the Apple Menu and update your system to the latest updates. After each install process continue going to Software Update until there are no more updates available.
    When complete this process, via the Finder, open Disk Utility found in your Applications>Utilities folder. There, highlight your HD on the left, then select "repair permissions".
    When complete, rerun the Safari 4 installer.

  • I cannot install Premier Elements 10 on a Mac.

    Once Elements Organizer is installed & opened, the window is 75% off screen and I cannot "pull" it down to navigate. Adobe Support (on chat) had me uninstall, change date on the Mac to 11/01/2011, reinstall software - but still was unable to view complete window. Any thoughts on how to get the window into full view?

    It is simple to fix as long as you follow this exactly. I had the same issue with Organizer (version 10) on my MacBook Pro as you (Mountain Lion). I seems to be a OSx issue when a second monitor is attached at anytime and then disconnected.
    1) If you have more than one display connected to your mac, disconnect all external displays.
    2) Launch Organizer (So it is like your screen shot above). This is so you can see it fix as you go through the steps.
    3) Go to Apple menu at the upper-left corner of the screen. Then click System Preferences
    4) Click on Displays
    5) Select a different screen resolution then what it is currently set to (try 800 x 600). Mine was originally set to something like 'Stretched'. At this point you should see the Organizer window fit to screen with the top Organizer buttons visible.
    6) Set the resolution back to what it was before and confirm that you can still see the entire Organizer window.
    7) This next few steps are very important. Close Organizer.
    8) Relaunch Organizer to confirm that it is still correctly displayed.
    9) Close Organizer.
    10) Restart your Mac.
    11) Launch Organizer and you should be fine now.
