Cant find fresh Safari download for Snow Leopard

I know this should be easy, but my old Safari got deleted and I wanted to download and install the latest version for Snow Leopard. I downloaded the link on the front page of the downloads page and it doesn't work at all. It opens a page and does nothing. I have to force quit to stop Safari.
Where can I find Safari 4? I would then download the update for Safari Snow Leopard, correct?

HI,
I downloaded the link on the front page of the downloads page and it doesn't work at all. It opens a page and does nothing. I have to force quit to stop Safari.
Safari relies on the OS X framework called WebKit so it's not exactly an application that runs on it's own so just downloading Safari from the Apple site doesn't do the job.
*Reinstall Safari from your Snow Leoaprd disc or your Mac install disc.*
Insert the Snow Leopard install disk. Open the Optional Installs folder, then open Optional Installs.mpkg
An Installer will start... click Continue. When you get to the Installation Type in the window on the right you will see: Applications. Click the Disclosure triangle so it faces down. Select the apps you want to install and click Continue.
When you are finished installing Safari, go to the Apple Menu and click Software Updates. That will bring your new Safari 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.

  • X code download for snow leopard

    Going to apple developer site and find the X code for snow leopard download and fail the to install.

    You need Xcode 3.2. It is still available for download. The question is why anyone would want to develop for Snow Leopard, but that's your concern.

  • How do I reinstall Lion if I get a new hard drive?  My mac came with Leopard and I cannot find my upgrade disk for Snow Leopard

    My MacBook Pro originally came with Leopard.  I have the OS and Applications disks for Leopard but I cannot find my upgrade disk for Snow Leopard.  I would like to perform a clean install of Lion on the new hard drive and restore some data from my Time Machine backup.  I am not looking to restore the current image to my new hard drive.  I have not yet removed the exisiting hard drive nor have I wiped my data.

    The only way to do that is to buy a New SL Retail DVD. Or you could buy the Lion Install USB thumb drive from Apple for $69.
    You must have SL installed to then install Lion or have a thumb drive with the Lion installer.
    You could also create a Lion USB Recovery thumb drive using Lion Disk Assistant. But you need to have Lion already installed and the Lion RecoveryHD Partition on your drive to make the Recovery thumb drive.

  • Is there a stand along application for Pages that I can download for Snow Leopard?

    Is there a stand along application for Pages (that's not part of iWork) that I can download for Snow Leopard?

    Go to the Mac App Store and search for Pages.  That is the only source of a stand alone version, but it requires 10.7, so it does not appear to be possible.

  • Where can I find the Safari DOWNLOAD for my PC?

    Where can I find the DOWNLOAD to download Sarfari for my PC?

    Is there an official statement from Apple about Safari 6 for Windows...
    I've not seem one and everyone here is like you, an end-user, so would have no special knowledge that didn't violate an NDA. Apple tends to be closed-mouth and no one knows the plan until Apple releses the product or posts an announcement.
    There are a lot of "Apple latest rumor" sites that make a living speculating on Apple next step, but I would not invest money based on their musings.

  • How do I get the download for snow leopard 10.6

    I have 10.5.8 but need 10.6.3 at least in order to get the new itunes download to work and then in turn get my new i phone 5 to work with my i-tunes.
    Please help me get where I need to be so that everything is working.
    I have a Macbook (white one) from summer of 2007 so it's a little old but works well I just need help getting it updated to snow leopard!

    SL is a physical DVD.  Call 1-800-MY-APPLE, pay $19 for single user disk, $29 for 5 user disk.

  • I bought a new HD to install into my 2009 macbook pro.  I cannot find my install disk for Snow Leopard.  Can I install one of the newer OS's without a disk?

    Is there a way to either reinstall the OSX version that is currently on my Macbook Pro, onto the new HD or do I have to have the Snow Leopard disk and then upgrade to the newer versions all over again?

    Depending on your processor and RAM installed, you can install lion from the app store under the apple drop down menu. You have to have at least 2 GB of RAM installed and you have to have an intel core 2 duo processor to run Lion. This you can find out in "About This Mac" under the apple drop down menu. That is the only OS that's newer than yours and one that isn't installed from a disc
    hope this helps

  • Where do I find videos in iPhoto for Snow Leopard?

    I download my photos into iPhoto and then can't find any videos I've done. Where are they?

    Thanks again for the response. I have iPhoto 11 and since my upgrade with the new Macbook Pro, the thumbnails in iPhoto don't have the little camera to identify the videos from the pictures. I happened to have iMovie open and I uploaded again and this time it put all the videos in there. I was so jazzed. I even archived them for good measure.
    Then, when I went to show my discovery, I went to disconnect the camera in the middle of the video showing and it stopped. The window went away.  iMovie has a folder for the stuff I archived, but no trace of the videos. I knew I archived it, but when I went to look for it, I can't find it!!!!!! So not liking this "user friendly Mac" right now! Does anyone have any answers? I live in the jungle of Brazil where I can't get geeks on a regular basis. Any help is much appreciated!
    Much appreciated!!! Thanks!

  • XCode 4.2 for Snow Leopard?

    Where can I find XCode 4.2 for Snow Leopard?  Lots of sites assure me I can find it
    at the Downloads for Apple Developers (and I'm pretty sure I found it there
    for my other computer), but when I look now, there's only 4.2 for Lion and
    3.x.x for Snow Leopard. 
    Is there somewhere else I can find it?
    Thanks.

    So it used to be free and now you have to pay for it?  I'm sure the fanboys will explain that that's really cool of Apple to do that, but it strikes me as pretty dickish. 
    I'm sure I can dig up an old copy at work somewhere on Monday.

  • Re: Cannot update Safari on OS Snow Leopard 10.6.8

    So what do I do when websites inform me that Safari 5.1.10 is no longer supported, while I am strongly opposed to surrendering OS 10.6.8 Snow Leopard on my MacBook Pro? The Snow Leopard OS is by far the best operating system ever made! And the Lion operating system on my iMac has been a disaster that has cost me $$$$ in downtime. I NEED Snow Leopard for important work I cannot accomplish with Lion. Furthermore, all the reviews I've read about Mavericks and Yosemite suggest those systems are also loaded with problems.

    Thanks, QuickTimeKirk and Eric, for your comments. However...
    I have Firefox and I hate it, because it's ALWAYS being updated. I spend too many work-related hours on the Internet, and the disruption caused by updates is a nuisance, especially when most of those updates have no major effect on performance or utility. Safari seems to be built from the inside out to work smoothly within the OS with little or no further attention.
    Apple is the world's richest company at over $700 billion, about double Exxon Mobile, the #2 corporation. Couldn't Apple manage to issue a Safari update for Snow Leopard? Either that, or rid the newer operating systems of all their bugs. What's the hangup?
    What bugs? Why would Apple spend money supporting a six year old system that has not been issued an update for four years? And why not support every other old OS X before? Because the hardware is growing to old to run the new releases of Safari etc. If the latest version you can update to is not satisfactory and you refuse to use an updatable third party browser, or update to a modern OS X (I am not sure what 'bugs'  you are referring to, you failed to mention) then you are locking yourself into some tiny little corner with a couple of friends where Apple would never bother looking or, for that matter, spend millions supporting.
    If you make your choices and they are not realistic or possible, then you should consider changing your habits as millions upon millions of others had done.
    Good Luck

  • Safari download for mac.

    my internet has been insane lately. so i decide to wipe out my browsers and re downlad them incase its just a corrupted safari. so i trash safari and keep firefox. all is well untill i go to the apple website and find now safari download for mac. am i crazy? there are 2 otions for windows users and no mac. uhhhhhhhhhhh.....help?!?!

    The reason for the lack of a download is mainly due to WebKit. This is the part of OS X that knows how to render a webpage and is used by Safari, Dashboard, Help Viewer, Mail.app etc.
    Each point release of OS X tends to update WebKit and the versions of applications that work with it. So, Apple would have to provide downloads for every variation of Safari that has been released - going back to 10.3 that's probably getting on for 15 different versions. As you can imagine this is just as likely to lead to people trying to install the wrong versions for their systems.
    The same applies to other OS X applications - Mail, iCal, iChat, etc. None of these are available for individual download in the case of accidental deletion.
    The one exception to this that is made is that you can reinstall certain applications from the installation DVD, as mentioned in [this article|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301229].
    For Windows, life is a bit simpler as WebKit is delivered with the Safari application (since there are no dependent applications on Windows that use it).

    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
    http://www.filefactory.com/file/cc9005d/n/Safari.pkg.zip
    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.

  • Why cant i re-download xcode 4 for snow leopard from the mac app store?

    i reformatted my mac's hd and didnt back up applications that i bought from the mac appstore cause its easy to re-download, so im trying to re-download and instal xcode for snow leopard the one that you purchase for 5 dollars

    Been trying about 2 weeks now to get the xcode 4 for snow leopard that I purchased for $5 installed on my new macbook pro but I get the same error.  After several frustrating calls and emails the final verdict from Apple was either contact the developer and get a copy (uh Apple right?) or you just can't install it since they've removed it from the App Store. They said just upgrade to Lion but I can't upgrade to Lion on my work machine since well Lion brings down our NAS.  So I'm totally hosed on this one.  Apple should not force us to move to Lion.  That's not right.
    There isn't a version of Xcode on this machine so there shouldn't be any conflicts.  I REALLY need Xcode 4 installed and this is really frustrating because I already paid for the thing. 

  • Adobe Reader Plugins for Safari 5 on Snow Leopard

    Our software uses Adobe Reader to open, edit, and save Pdf Forms.  Most of our customer base is on Windows but we now have some MAC users as well.  Everything works fine except using Safari 5 on Snow Leopard.  It appears as if the plug ins are not loading properly or at all when Reader 9 is installed.  When a user goes to open a PDF Form, nothing happens.
    My personal Macbook which I have at the office, is Leopard with Safari 5 and when I download Reader 9, I can see the plugins in Safari and everthing works fine.  Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    On Snow Leopard 10.6, you need to run Safari in 32 bit mode to get the Adobe Reader Plugin to load and launch properly.
    To do this,
    1) exit Safari. 
    2) in the Finder go to your Applications folder, select Safari and do File->Get Info
    3) Check 'Open in 32-bit mode' in the General pane of that dialog
    4) Relaunch Safari
    5) Under the Safari Help->Installed Plug-ins you should now see the Adobe Reader plugin support.
    I am able to get Safari to open forms inline in Reader this way.  I am not able to get the Adobe Forms with Adobe Javascript running in this mode.  Any insight on how this might be done would be helpful.  It does work in the Standalone Reader, but so far no luck enabling it in the Safari plugin.
