Help: I installed an update and now safari doesn't work

Hello
this morning my mac air asked me if I wanted to install the software update available and I did.
When I restarted the pc it connected to the internet fine (I can see it because skype is connected) but safari doesn't open the page to navigate. Hence I cannot display the safari page to look up to an internet web site.
what should I do?
Thanks
ELena

You need to update to Safari 5.1
Safari 5.0.6 is for Leopard v10.5.8, see system requirements here > Safari 5.0.6

  • HT4972 I upgraded my iPad to IOS 5.1 and now Safari doesn't work.

    I upgraded my iPad to IOS 5.1 and now Safari doesn't work and keeps bombing out. I've tried restoring the iPad to the original configuration but this is clearly not restoring the iPad back to the original factory default!! Help !!  I have the original v1 iPad.  I wish I had never upgraded the IOS now ! 

    1. Double-click the Home button to show the Task Bar
    2. Hold the Safari icon down for a second or two until you see the minus sign
    3. Tap the minus sign to close Safari

  • I upgraded to Lion and now Safari doesn't work and the updater hangs so I can't install the updates. Can anyone help me with this?

    I upgraded to Lion and now Safari hangs up and the updater hangs up so I can't install the update. Can anyone help?

    Reinstalling Lion
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alterhatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. 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 main menu.
    Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.

  • Installed Update and Now CUDA doesn't work.

    I just allowed my machine to do an Adobe update and now when I open any project it displays the following message "This project was last used with Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration, which is not available on this system. Mercury Playback Engine Software Only will be used." Until now I have been able to utilize the GPU acceleration beautifully. Is it just a bad update ? Or does someone know how to fix it?

    You will need to redo the 'hack' to get your card working again.  The update overwrites the text file.

  • Can I get rid of 36? It installed an update and now firefox does not work at all

    firefox 36 is seriously broken
    It updated on my computer and now does not work at all. I've tried all the suggestions and no help.....going back to IE

    Hi wskossack, I am sorry to hear that you are having problems with Firefox 36. I am also sorry that we have not been able to get that working for you yet.
    If what you really want is to uninstall Firefox we can do that. Of course I have to ask if you would be willing to let my help you to get the most up to date version of Firefox working. But, Firefox is all about the ability to customize. If you want we can install the last version of Firefox and you can use that until the next version comes out or while we work to get Firefox 36 working for you. I will try to cover every option in my reply.
    First I will cover uninstalling Firefox. If you want to look at the [[Uninstall Firefox from your computer|article click here]] this can be done in about 7 steps
    I would recommend that you completely uninstall Firefox and install it again. This will most likely fix any problems you have right now. Because you are asking how to do this I am going to assume that you have not tried this.
    If you have Vista or Windows 7:
    1) close any open Firefox windows.
    2) from the start menu click on control panel
    3) click on uninstall a program
    4) from this list chose Firefox
    5) click on uninstall (this is located turds the top)
    If the Uninstall Wizard does not run, you can start it manually by running helper.exe, which is located in one of these locations by default:
    (32-bit Windows) C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe
    (64-bit Windows) C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe
    6) in the Firefox uninstall wizard click next and on the next page click uninstall then click finish
    7) to remove other files and folders that may not be removed by the uninstall, you must manually delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations by default:
    (32-bit Windows) C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    (64-bit Windows) C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    The uninstaller does not remove any user data such as history or bookmarks. To completely remove this data, you must manually delete the Firefox folder containing your user profile:
    Click the Windows Start button.
    Type %APPDATA% in the search field and press enter to open the hidden Roaming folder.
    Open the Mozilla folder
    Delete the Firefox folder.
    Now I am going to go over how to get the last version of Firefox installed on your computer. If you want to look at the [[Install an older version of Firefox|article click here]] . If you decide that this is what you want to do please look at the article for some impotent security information.
    Firefox 35.0.1 was the last version of Firefox and you can get it by [https://download-installer.cdn.mozilla.net/pub/firefox/releases/35.0.1/win32/en-US/Firefox%20Setup%2035.0.1.exe clicking here] . The link is also in the article. If you do this you will have to disable the auto update. To do this go to options, then go to advance. Under advance there will be a sub tab. You want to go to update. Then you can select to never check or to have it tell you when there is an update.
    So the only thing left is for me to help you with any problems you are having with Firefox 36. I hope you will give me a chance. In any case, if you need any more information or help with anything that I went over please let me know.

  • I downloaded lion and now safari doesn't work

    After downloading the mountain lion upgrade my safari would not open.  I updated the software, turned off the computer and restarted.  It still won't work.  It's not an internet problem because I can use firefox.
    Does anybody know how to fix this?

    Where are you opening Safari, from the Dock or from the Applications folder?
    If from the Dock, try opening from the Applications folder.
    If that works, remove the Safari icon in the Dock and Drag Safari from the Applications folder onto the Dock.
    If you had moved Safari out of the Applications folder (even into a subfolder), then move it back to the Applications folder.
    If you did move it or none of the above solves it, reinstall the OS (installing the 10.8.2 combo update may be sufficient, but I'm not sure).

  • I installed lion without software updating and now itunes doesn't work and my computer crashes when loading photobooth?

    I didn't bother to install the software updates my computer needed to do.  It said something about prepping for lion,  but I thought if I installed lion it wasn't neccesary.  Now seeing as I have all these bugs,  I feel like that was a mistake.  I also did not bother to make a time machine thing to go back on,  or any copy of my snow leopard hard drive.  Is my only option now to make a clean install of snow leopard with the cd and wipe everything,  then install lion again?
    I tried using command R on startup to reinstall lion,  but it says my disks are locked. 

    Hi, likely something else isn't updated, maaybe Safari?
    Is his he version you have, & Safari 5.0.3 or more?

  • Just installed OSX update and now widgets don't work

    I click on my dashboard and my widget icons all show up as black squares with a @, a music note, a cloud, and a clock. I click on them and nothing happens. How can I fix that?

    I found just one of my Widgets malfunctioning (BBCWeather Widget) and contacted the author (correct term?) yesterday. He replied this morning with a link to an updated version!
    That is one option for non-Apple widgets, but if you have many widgets misfiring, it's a tall order. And if it's the widgets that come with Tiger, then maybe try downloading and installing the appropriate 10.4.7 Combo Update from this page.
    Repair permissions before and after the update.

  • Upgraded to Lion and now Safari doesn't work wifi is having problems and...

    I excitedly upgraded to Lion after upgrading to Snow Leopard but now I'm having problems Safari, WiFi and launching Content Barrier from my Intego Internet Security Package. Snow Leopard was perfect but Lion has been giving me some grief. I'm a little disappointed. I have read that most people have had problems with Lion but I honestly thought it would be ok. But it seems that this upgrade isn't worth all the hype it has made. I was so excited but feel a littlest down. I don't think I should be spending all this time trying to find a solution to these issues ...it's such a huge chunk out of my time that I could spend working.
    Can someone please lead me in the right direction :((

    Uninstall the Intego software and see if that helps.  I suspect it will.
    If not, see Understanding upgrade nightmares for more suggestions.

  • I downloaded iPhoto update and now it doesn't work

    How do I fix iPhoto after an unsuccessful update? Today I downloaded the iPhoto update from the App store. When I try to open the program it quits unexpectedly. When I try to open it again it says it has dectected inconsistencies in my library. I click "repair library database" and when it gets to 99% complete it shuts down and vanishes from my screen. I try everything all over again with the same result. It was working fine until the update. Help!

    Back up your iPhoto library, depress the option and command keys, launch iPhoto and rebuild your library

  • Applied OTA update and now phone doesn't work!

    I applied the OTA update offered this morning to my Droid RAZR MAXX.  After the phone rebooted, the screen was blank.
    When I reboot now, I see the Motorola log and then nothing.  I can hear the boot sound, but I can't see anything.
    I tried to reset the phone.  When I select the recovery option, the phone reboots and then shows the little android guy on his back with an exclamation point over him.  I continue on the the next menu and choose the factory reset/wipe data option.  After it successfully completes, I reboot.
    All of this and I still don't have a working phone.
    I took my phone to the local Verizion store and all they could tell me to do was contact Assurion and make an insurance claim.  I have a real problem with this considering it was Verizion's update that caused my phone to quit working.
    Anyone have any ideas?

    Are you attempting the reset through the phone settings or the manual hard reset?
    Through the menu it is settings-privacy-factory data reset-reset phone-erase everything.
    If you are unable to reach the main menu to go into settings you will need to perform the manual hard reset.
    1. Power the phone off.
    2. Press and hold the volume up/down key and then press and hold the power button.
    3.When you see the boot menu release all buttons that you are holding.
    4.Press the volume down key to choose recovery then press the volume up key.
    5. From the droid triage screen press and hold the volume down key, then press and release the volume up key, then release the volume down key.
    6.Choose wipe data/factory reset and then press the power button.
    7.Choose yes to delete all user data and then press power button.
    8.Choose reboot system now and then press the power button.
    If this does not work/already what you have done then it is going to be a device issue that will need to be fixed by either a) calling motorola and seeing if they have a fix for it or b) going into a VZW store and having them update the software/flash the device if they agree to do that.
    If nothing else works, defective device hopefully it's under warranty.
    Good luck.

  • HT1222 I just installed this update and now I cannot access "Mail" at all.  I tried reinstalling the program, but that does not work, either.  Help!!!!!!

    I just installed this update and now I cannot access "Mail" at all.  I tried reinstalling the program, but that does not work, either.  Help!

    Paldeng, thanks for the suggestion.  I've done all that.  I can connect to the server, but apparently they are not recognizing my ID and password.  I can use the server program if I don't go through Mail (using the same ID and password).  My mother in another state with another provider has had the same email issue, as also my husband on his laptop who uses the same internet connection I do.  His worked fine until we had it repaired at the Apple store and all the original programs reloaded (with the required updates, I assume).  We can receive email in Mail, we just cannot send.
    I contacted my service provider, and we went over my connections.  They said it was not their problem and connected me with Apple, resulting in a charge to me because my warranty is long expired.  Apple swears it is not their problem, it is the provider, so here I sit.  My son was able to fix my Mom's Mail (she's 97) and got my husband's working also, until mine went out, by tweaking connection descriptions and ports remotely.  The thing is, we had not messed with any of those settings, so what changed?  I just did not want to bother my son again, as he has many other demands on his time.
    Since this fiasco with the Mail v4.6 update, I'm wondering if something else was updated that works well with Lion and Mountain Lion, but does not work well with Snow Leopard and Leopard.  I think the problem I had with the Mail update was that my Mail program had been renamed to Mail (original), and therefore was not being recognized by the update.  Perhaps they had another tweak in there somewhere that is affecting outgoing mail connections?
