Hi cecemf,
I've got exactly the same problem here. Some animated GIFs look strange since I've updated from Leopard to Snow Leopard.

  • Safari & Snow Leopard: Change to 32 Bit or Rosetta

    For those who are having problems with Safari & Snow Leopard, you have Agile Software (Maker of Password, which I highly recommend....) to thank for the following:
    http://support.agilewebsolutions.com/showthread.php?t=16716
    Note: If you do not get the 32 bit option, click on the Rosetta. My Safari was not working. Totally busted. Now it's a whizzing speed demon.
    Hope this helps you.
    To all those who spent time answering my queries, my deep appreciation. Thank you.

    Hello:
    As an observation, if you were not using the third-party software you would not have had the problem.
    I am not being critical, but the title of your thread is not descriptive. 32 bit and Rosetta have nothing to do with Safari 4.0.3.

  • Flash + Safari + Snow Leopard

    I just noticed that Adobe Flash MAC 10,0,32,18 under Safari in Snow Leopard results in Safari locking up when trying to play a Flash video.
    Does not affect Firefox 3.5.2 on the same machine.
    This issue is present on two machines that I have running Snow Leopard, one iMac and one MacBook Pro.

    It appears to be pretty flaky. Sometimes I can view a flash movie in either browser, but most of the time, if I try to go to Youtube or espn.com with some sort of embedded flash, the browser hangs and starts beachballing.

  • Safari snow leopard

    should i download safari 4 snow leopard if im running safari tiger 10.4.11

    If you want the newest version of Safari for your OS, click here, push the Safari 4.0.4 for Tiger radio button and download the file. The Leopard and Snow Leopard versions of it won't install on your OS.
    The Software Update pane of System Preferences will show you the correct updater.

  • Any update for safari snow leopard 10.6.8 ?

    safari need to be updated in the version of 10.6.8. where miliions of users still use this version of osx believing this version is the best yet.
    In the name of millions of Apple's customers we ask sarafi to be updated.

    Apple will never update Safari on OS X v10.6.8  >    Apple Kills Snow Leopard: OS X 10.6 No Longer Receives Security Updates
    OS X Snow Leopard is very outdated OS X. It cannot meet today's necessary security requirements.
    Unless you use Rosetta for PowerPC apps, your Mac may be able to upgrade to v10.10 Yosemite.

    That would install Safari 8.

  • Downloading Quicktime files in Safari - Snow Leopard.

    I seem to be having trouble downloading a quicktime file from my University website since I upgraded to Snow Leopard. I found some posts on other sites that say you can get the URL from Safari's activity window and paste it into the 'open URL' box in Quicktime 7 - or even just double click the URL in the activity list. These seem to work ok; however, the Quicktime file I'm trying to access seems to be embedded in the University System; I know they use Java, so I'm presuming its embedded in a Java applet. This means that the URL of the file is not displayed in Safari's activity window and is not part of the HTML source code. This, combined with the lack of the old Quicktime 7 Pro menu tab on the window, mean I can't download the file.
    Does anyone know if there's a way around this? It would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Awesome, Limnos! That's done the trick; thanks very much for your advice.

  • Radio Buttons MIssing in Safari/Snow Leopard

    I've come across a number of pages where radio buttons are simply missing... opened it in Firefox to double check and they are there. What's up with that?

    same issue here... Definitely Safari on Snow only issue. I'm running 10.6.1 (32 Bit Mode, Universal Access = Off). Have cross tested with Safari 4.0.3 on winXP and Firefox 3 on 10.6.1 (both work fine)
    Issue seen with sites.google.com and http://discussions.apple.com/editwatches!default.jspa - radio buttons don't render.
    Seems to be specific use of radios. On a given page some display and others don't - the broken ones all appear to be in tages that include jscript use.
    E.g. this works:
    <label>
    <input id="pageLocTopLevelPath" name="pageLoc" type="radio" value="" checked="true" />
    Put page at the top level
    </label>
    this doesn't:
    Select a template to use
    <input type="radio" name="pagetype" checked="true" id="text" /><label for="text">Web Page</label>
    <input type="radio" name="pagetype" id="dashboard" /><label for="dashboard">Dashboard</label>
    <input type="radio" name="pagetype" id="announcements" /><label for="announcements">Announcements</label>
    <input type="radio" name="pagetype" id="filecabinet" /><label for="filecabinet">File Cabinet</label>
    <input type="radio" name="pagetype" id="list" /><label for="list">List</label>
    <input type="radio" name="pagetype" id="startpage" /><label for="startpage">Start Page</label>

  • Safari (Snow Leopard) will not link to website (pdf) files from within other pdf files

    Meeting agendas (in pdf format) have 'web links' to other pdf files, but Safari says not enough info in the webaddress.  But it works O.K. in Windows Explorer.

    Open browser preferences
    ex Safari>Preferences>Extentions   and un-enable any ext that mabe interferring , ex divX
    or open Help> installed Plug-ins and remove Adobe Acrobat.
    if still a problem
    Quit Safari.
    In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder from the menu bar, copy the text on the line below into the box that opens, and press return:
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
    A Finder window will open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Desktop, leaving the window open.
    Launch Safari and test. Its settings will have reverted to what they were they first time you launched it. If it works as expected, recreate the settings and delete the item you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, quit Safari again and put the file you moved back where it was, overwriting the newer one created in its place.

  • Websites in safari snow leopard do not open fully; buttons not showing word

    after installing SL, it seems like some browsers in safari will not open fully... i tried opening some websites eztv.it, where it used to be okay before the upgrade, but now, the "buttons" do not have anything on them... i tried to put safari on the 32-bit mode; i re-installed safari from the SL disc, but still nothing's happening... they all work fine in firefox...
    i also did the upgrade on my husband's macbook white, and he does not seem to have the same problem... his safari is working fine..
    please help

    HI,
    Try Safari Maintenance
    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.

  • Any way I can buy Snow Leopard using iTunes gift cards?

    I thought I could download it through the App Store but I guess I was wrong.  Is there any way the Apple Store would let me use the iTunes gift cards to buy Snow Leopard?  Is there any way the Apple Store would let me use the iTunes gift cards to buy Apple gift cards?  Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hi...
    You can purchase Snow Leopard from the Apple online store using a gift card.
    Click here >   http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A
    Then click Add to Cart
    Make sure the information in the shopping cart is correct then click Check Out Now.
    Enter your Apple ID then click Continue.
    In the next window you should see...
    You can use up to eight gift cards in the Apple online store.
    Is there any way the Apple Store would let me use the iTunes gift cards to buy Apple gift cards?
    According to Apple you cannot use Apple Gift Cards to purchase another Apple Gift Card.

  • 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.

  • Trouble with internet connection after update to Snow Leopard

    Happily surfing the internet with the most recent update of Tiger until deciding to upgrade to Snow Leopard so that I could connect to a wireless printer. Noticed almost immediately that Safari was spotty, sometime normal, but often painfully slow. Have checked forums that suggest dumping caches, reseting Safari, repairing permissions, doing fresh install of SL. Nothing has worked. Can't even get internet with Firefox. Internet connection seems to work after I start up, but then fails after 5-10 minutes. Most of the time it doesn't work at all. Doesn't seem to be a problem limited to Safari since Firefox won't work either. Phone support tried saying that SL likes a WPA router connection and not WEP, which is the current setup.
    Finally, I decided to boot to my clone of Tiger. After a little bit of fussing around setting up the internet connection over Airport everything works just fine! What's wrong with SL and how can I fix it. Really like the iLife11 upgrade and being able to print wirelessly, but if I can't get internet access that makes it rather pointless. Know this is a lot and rather hastily written, but please help!

    Hello
    Sorry, I have no answer to your problem. I just want to share that I amexeprience similar issues with my iMac since I upgraded to Snow leopard :
    The LAN connection of the iMac slows down after accessing Internet, usually less that one hour. I can measure it through an Internet throughput utility on my provider's home page.
    I have two Macs connected on the same DSL box, with the same OS version, Snow leopard, and nearly the same sofwtare configuration. Thus I can compare the Internet access speed :
    After starting the computers, it is above 12 Mb/s.
    On the iMac that I use most for Internet, it slow down to more or less 2 Mb/s after a few minutes, whereas it stays at 12 Mb/s on the MacMini.
    Because of this, I believe it is LAN problem, not an Internet/DSL problem.
    The same phenomenon happens if I connect to my DSL/Router with Ethernet or with Airport. The speed drops to similar values, below 3 Mb/s. Thus, the problem dose not seem to be related to LAN connection hardware.
    Curiously, the speed is high again after shutting down and restaring the iMac. But it slows down again after a few minutes. Putting the computer to sleep does not help to restore maximal speed: it has to be shut down.
    From all this, I draw the conclusion that the problem lies in a LAN software layer that is common to Ethernet and Airport and that is restarted only after shutdown.
    I am using the MacMini as a reference for Internet access performance, in order to have a benchmark for iMac performance. I hav enot tried yet if the LAN performance of the MacMini collapses in a similar way if I use it to surf on the net.
    I hope this will be helpfull do draw some attention from experts at Apple. It looks like a bug in a Snow Leopard LAN software layer.

  • How do I tweak Snow Leopard (Finder & Safari) to make it behave more like Tiger?

    I've recently upgraded to a Mac Pro 4,1 from a Power Mac G4, and to Mac OS X 10.6.8 from 10.4.11 in the process.
    There are a few little ways in which Snow Leopard behaves differently to Tiger, and I'm wondering if (for each item on the list below) anyone has any suggestions on how I can make things behave as I'd like, rather than as they do.
    While I'm at it, I've included a couple of things that never behaved as I'd like in Tiger either, but which may also be alterable.
    I'd prefer, if possible, solutions that result from simple changes in settings, or perhaps "sudo" commands entered into Terminal, rather than having to install third party software.
    Also, I'd appreciate those that choose to reply refrain from suggesting I upgrade to Lion or Mountain Lion. These aren't options I can consider at the moment.
    1. In the Finder, clicking Go -> Recent Folders gives the 10 most recently opened folders. Is there a way to change this number?
    There isn't an option to do this in the "Appearance" preference pane, where "Number of recent items" can be set for "Applications", "Documents" and "Servers". There's also no option to alter the number of "Recent Folders" in any other preference pane that I can see. I've posted a similar list of questions over at the Macrumors forums, where the one reply I've had so far suggested I use the "General" preference pane, however I don't have one of these. I think "General" was possibly a pane in a much earlier version of Mac OS X?
    2. In the Finder, folders on the desktop often don't deselect the way they always did in Tiger. For example, if I double click a folder to open it, the folder's icon highlights. The folder often doesn't deselect / unhighlight though when I then click on the desktop or elsewhere. It often takes 2 or 3 additional clicks for the icon to deselect. Is this a known bug, and can it be fixed? The reply in the Macrumors forum says "It's a known bug, it's even worse in Mountain Lion.".
    3. In the Finder, under Preferences, I have "Always open folders in a new window" checked, as I prefer. Often though, I like to hold down the "alt" key when double clicking on a folder to open it, so that the enclosing folder closes at the same time as the folder I'm double clicking on opens, thereby overriding the preference I've set.
    In Tiger, the newly opening folder would always open at its previously set size & position. In Snow Leopard though, using the "alt" key causes the newly opening folder to open at the size & position of its enclosing folder instead, not at its previously set size & position.
    Worse, the folder then seems to "remember" this incorrect size & position which it takes from its enclosing folder, wiping out its previous (correct) size & position. Is there any way to make things behave like they did in Tiger?
    The reply in the Macrumors forum suggested I try "alt - command", but this makes things behave identically to "alt" on its own, as does using "command" on its own.
    Only when I don't use any modifier key does the opening window open at its correct size & position, but then without any modifier, the enclosing window remains open (as per my Finder preference selection), and its this preference that I often want to override, but with the newly opening window's correct size & position being maintained.
    4. In Safari (version 4.1.3) under Tiger, the "Command-`" keyboard shortcut (that's Command and the key to the left of the "z" key) cycles through each open Safari window in turn, before returning to the original window.
    However in Safari (version 5.1.7) on Snow Leopard, this keyboard shortcut seems to work very erratically. For example if I have, say, 8 windows open, the shortcut might only rotate through the 2 or 3 frontmost windows over & over again, rather than through all 8 in order. It might take 5 or 6 cycles of attempts before the rest of the windows appear at the front of the stack. This fault seems to be intermittent though. Is this a known bug, and can it be fixed?
    5. When I press "Command-f" in the Finder, a search window opens. I'm having 2 problems with the search window.
    Firstly, directly below the field where the search term is to be typed, is the word "Search:" with a row of only 2 buttons to the right. The first is labelled "This Mac" and the second is labelled with the name of the folder that I have set the "New Finder windows open:" preference to in Finder Preferences.
    I can't find any way of adding any further locations to this row of only 2 buttons. For example, "Macintosh HD" is in my sidebar, but I can't drag it to the row of buttons to create a new "Macintosh HD" button, nor can I find any other way to make the search only look in specific places (such as only on the "Macintosh HD" disk). I'm stuck with either "This Mac" or with the folder that I've set the "New Finder windows open:" preference to.
    How can I select where I want a search to take place? I could do this in Tiger with a couple of mouse clicks.
    Secondly, to the right of the 2 search location buttons is a small vertical bar, and then 2 further buttons, labelled "Contents" and "File Name". The "Contents" button is always selected by default. How can I make the "File Name" button the default rather than the "Contents" button?
    Many thanks in advance for any input anyone has.

    AFAIK, there's no default setting to change that. Take a look at defaults for Finder.
    2. In the Finder, folders on the desktop often don't deselect the way they always did in Tiger. For example, if I double click a folder to open it, the folder's icon highlights.

    AFAIK, that's normal behavior. The folder opens and gets focus. To return to the Desktop requires a click to gain focus and the click the Desktop to deselect anything previously selected.
    3. In the Finder, under Preferences, I have "Always open folders in a new window" checked, as I prefer. Often though, I like to hold down the "alt" key when double clicking on a folder to open it, so that the enclosing folder closes at the same time as the folder I'm double clicking on opens, thereby overriding the preference I've set.
    Still works that way here in SL.
    In Tiger, the newly opening folder would always open at its previously set size & position. In Snow Leopard though, using the "alt" key causes the newly opening folder to open at the size & position of its enclosing folder instead, not at its previously set size & position.

    Nope. You're in the minority, so Apple changed it, since more wanted it that way than the old Tiger way.
    4. In Safari (version 4.1.3) under Tiger, the "Command-`" keyboard shortcut (that's Command and the key to the left of the "z" key) cycles through each open Safari window in turn, before returning to the original window.
    Can't help, since I normally only use one window and many tabs. Also, I don't see that shortcut. Enable the Debug menu option and peruse Debug->Keyboard & Mouse Shortcuts.
    5. When I press "Command-f" in the Finder, a search window opens. I'm having 2 problems with the search window.

    How can I select where I want a search to take place? I could do this in Tiger with a couple of mouse clicks.
    Not possible. Apple's crippled Spotlight as it's brought the OSs forward. Best is to start your search in the folder you want to search. See Snow Leopard's wrong changes, for starters.
    Secondly, to the right of the 2 search location buttons is a small vertical bar, and then 2 further buttons, labelled "Contents" and "File Name". The "Contents" button is always selected by default. How can I make the "File Name" button the default rather than the "Contents" button?
    Use CMD+SHIFT+F. Ultimately, I strongly suggest creating a savedSearch with your desired criteria and use it, bypassing CMD+spacebar and CMD+F. This is what I use:

  • "Safari Can't Find the Server" is chronic in Safari under Snow Leopard...

    Since moving to Snow Leopard (or perhaps it is just an updated Safari in SL and otherwise not related to SL??) when my Mac starts up from sleep with Safari being already open, I typically find a blank message with "Safari Can't Find the Server"... And just clicking on pages, I sometimes get that same message. Sometimes I get the spinning gear (for way too long) and I've learned to stop it and just click the same link again and more often than not, it opens immediately the second time...
    Any ideas??? Is this a bug that Apple needs to fix or do I need to do something to Safari (or something else) to fix this problem???
    thanks... bob...

    Whoa... Now I'm really confused... When I go to my System Preferences, then Network, highlight Airport, then click on Advanced, then choose the DNS tab, all I see under DNS Servers is the internal IP address of my Apple Router (10.x.x.x).. And next to that under Search Domains is hsd1.ca.comcast.net... And that is all there is... And I didn't set any of that up... When I bought my Apple Extreme Router a couple years ago, I was so impressed because I came home, plugged it in, basically said "GO" and the router set it all up and just worked... And I'm pretty sure (though not positive) that the Router put the 10.x.x.x in that preference panel, in other words, pointed to itself for DNS services...
    This is effectively saying that the DNS configured in the router will be the default.
    So help me understand... If I change the DNS settings on the mac from 10.x.x.x to the OpenDNS values, the router would still have the Comcast values in it??? How does that work??? And if I only change them on my mac, then the rest of the computers on my home network would still be using the original Comcast DNS servers as established on the router, yes??? I mean I think that would have to be...
    If you change your Mac, that is what it will use. Other computers will use whatever
    they are configured to use.
    See my confusion??? Again, I know only enough about Network settings to know that if I click a wrong button I could make a lot of trouble... So I don't move until I understand what at least a little more than clearly I know now...
    So how do local (mac) settings for DNS play (or not) with DNS settings up at the router level???
    The local settings should override anything else since that is what will
    be used first. They have no interaction with what is at the router level.

  • Safari on Snow Leopard doesn't play right with multimedia on WordPress

    I have a problem when I insert a QuickTime movie or Flash graphic into a WordPress post. The problem is that the CSS drop-down menu on the post page fall 'behind' the QuickTime movie instead of in front.
    To combat this I inserted the following embed codes in the html for the movie: <param name="wmode" value="transparent"> and wmode="transparent"
    This would appear to fix the drop-down problem but it creates a new problem for Safari on Snow Leopard for Macs. The QuickTime controls don't work on the movies. You can start/stop the movie by using the spacebar but the transparent layer kills access to the controls when either QuickTime X or QuickTime 7.x is used in Safari. Seems to work fine in Firefox.
    It might be easier to show the problem via examples which follow:
    No transparency code example
    http://www.hawaii247.org/2009/11/06/community-pays-tribute-and-honors-uncle-geor ge-naope/
    transparency code embedded example
    http://www.hawaii247.org/2009/10/29/rallying-in-hilo-for-the-international-day-o f-climate-action/
    Is there a away around the drop-down bug so I don't have to use the transparency embed code? The drop-down bug also occurs in IE8 I believe. If you choose the Sports drop-down you should see what I'm talking about in the first example.

    Yep. Exactly as you describe.
    Since your menu "drop downs" are the source of the original issue have you considered breaking the "long" one into "two" parts?

Maybe you are looking for
