How do I run Safari in 32 bit mode on Ipad2?

Need advise on how to change settings to run Safari in 32 bit mode on Ipad2. 32-bit mode is required for my daughter's online assignments. Not sure about OS - should be factory setting since it was not upgraded.

The iPad 2 uses Apple's A5 processor which is based on the ARM Cortex-A9 CPU. ARM processors are 32-bit only CPUs, so all software that runs on these CPUs is, by definition, 32-bit. There's nothing to set.
If your daughter's homework requires a 32-bit version of the browser, then it's not the browser she's using. Web browsers themselves simply render HTML and interpret Javascript. In the browser, there's no sense of 32-bit or 64-bit; they'd be indistinguishible. The only time 32-bit versus 64-bit applies would be for a plug-in to the browser. Mobile browsers don't typically support plug-ins; Mobile Safari certainly doesn't.
Your daughter is not using the web-browser for her assignments, but rather another application that uses the browser to present it. In that case, you're going to need a desktop computer (or virtual machine) and operating system that meet that plug-in/application's requirements. Your iPad will not suffice.

    Thanks

    I am not aware of Citrix doing a VPN server product although I have not gone out of my way to look for this and it maybe embedded into their solution for remotely running VMs or Virtual Desktops.
    However some general comments -
    Safari on a Mac is a 64-bit capable app
    Mavericks is a 64-bit only operating system but can run 32-bit applications as well as 64-bit applications
    Google Chrome is still only 32-bit and will only run as a 32-bit app even in Mavericks
    Java 1.7 on a Mac is 64-bit only and hence will not work in Google Chrome
    Apple do not support Java 1.6 which was 32-bit and 64-bit capable in web-browsers any more
    In general a 32-bit app can only use a 32-bit component, e.g. System Preferences needs to run in 32-bit mode to run a 32-bit preference-pane, and likewise a webrowser needs to run in 64-bit mode to run 64-bit only Java 1.7
    Many if not all SSL based VPN clients use Java (ugh!)
    Juniper (double ugh!) still only have a 32-bit version of their host-checker which will not work directly with Java 1.7, to get round this you have to run the web-browser based Java-applet version of the host-checker in Safari (remember Google Chrome does not support Java 1.7) the web-browser based version of the host-checker then uses the 64-bit Safari to execute and hence can use Java 1.7
    Running Java applets in a web-browser is the most insecure and risky approach going and the approach by far the most likely to result in a Mac (or PC) being infected by malware these days
    Because of the considerable security risks of running Java applets via a web-browser Apple periodically disable this function when new exploits are discovered in Java until Oracle comes out with a security fix, this can result in all your Mac users being unable to access your VPN system for several days
    It is not compulsory to use Juniper's host-checker but this is up to your corporate IT team, if they have made it compulsory at their end you have to run it, for those unaware it checks things like the fact you are running an approved and up-to-date anti-virus product, Cisco have a similar tool called Network Access Control agent
    To summarise if you are using a system which uses Java then it almost certainly needs to be a 64-bit compatible.

  • How do i run safari in 32 bit for a class

    I need to change safari to 32 bit to run Tegrity classes on my mac.  The instructions which pop up talk about a mouse with R/L sides I do not have that kind how do I reconfigure

    Highlight the Safari icon in your Applications folder. Then hit Command and I on your keyboard; in the resulting "get info" window, check the "open in 32-bit mode"; you may have to click the lock at the bottom and enter your admin password. If so, make sure you click the lock again to lock it when done. That should do it.

  • Is It Better To Run Safari In 64-Bit Mode?

    I happened to notice via the Activity Monitor that Safari was running in 32-Bit Mode so I switched it so it would launch in 64-Bit Mode and haven't seen any problems so far.  Safari also launches so much faster in 64-Bit mode.
    Is there a reason why the 32-Bit setting is the default mode?  Is there any reason not to run in 64-bit mode?  And I am running OSX Lion.

    Hello:
    As far as I know, 64 bit mode is standard/default for Safari.  One has to check "launch in 32 bit mode" to alter that behavior.
    Is there any reason not to run in 64-bit mode? 
    IMHO, no.  If some application did not run properly, I suspect that would be obvious.

  • Viewing PDFs in Safari in 64-bit mode - how?

    For me, in 64 bit mode, Safari insists on using Preview to view PDFs (and which is slow and clunky).
    If I make Safari downgrade itself to 32 bit mode, it properly calls up Acrobat to view PDFs.
    How can I have Safari running in native 64 bit mode and call up Acrobat to view PDFs on webpages? Or is it not possible?

    If you have Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat Pro installed, the plugin they install to view PDF files in Safari is not 64-bit compatible. Aside from that, unless you have more than 4 GB of RAM installed in your machine, you will not benefit in any way from running Safari or any other application in 64-bit mode, so you should be running everything in 32-bit mode.
    Because Safari is perfectly capable of rendering PDF files on it's own, you need to ditch Adobe Reader or Acrobat Pro, or at the very least, deactivate them so they are not called when you want to view a PDF file. To do that:
    Quit Safari if it's running.
    Start Adobe Reader and/or Acrobat Pro.
    Go to Preferences > Internet and uncheck the box at the top where it says "Display PDFs in browser using:", or something similar to that.
    Quit Adobe Reader and/or Acrobat Pro and restart Safari to test it.

  • How do I run Safari with a proxy on start up by command line?

    Hello,
    I am using a piece of software called Sahi to perform automated testing of websites. It uses a local proxy to accomplish this task, so it runs the browser with parameters needed so that that instance of the browser is running with the proxy settings. For some reason it's not correctly setup by default with Safari on the Mac. But it has a configuration file where you can set the command line parameters that it runs the browser with.
    So when I use Sahi in its default configuration, it doesn't work because the proxy is not configured, and I get an error ( http://sahi.co.in/forums/discussion/4607/sahi-doesn039t-work-with-safari-5-0-1-o n-macosx )
    So I need to set the proxy. When I set the 127.0.0.1:9999 proxy in the System Preferences it works. My question is how do I run Safari so that it provides the proxy settings as a command line option?
    This way I can add the command line option to the Sahi configuration file so that it runs Safari properly. I don't want to have the proxy settings system wide because I need other programs to work. I don't want to have the proxy settings set for Safari permanently because I also need to be able to run Safari normally outside of this special context.
    Any assistance would be appreciated.

    I should mention this is Safari 5.0.1

    If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS.* You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used.
    If you use FileVault 2, then before running the Installer you must launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the FileVault startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) It will be nested below another icon with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar and enter your login password when prompted. Then quit Disk Utility to be returned to the main Recovery screen.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode. All other data will be preserved.
    *The linked support article refers to OS X 10.9 ("Mavericks"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later.

  • HT2404 I have a 2011 macbook pro 13".  I am trying download software for the clear network and it won't let me saying I'm running in a 64 bit mode and I need to change my computer to a 32 bit mode before downloading.  Is that possible and how do I do it?

    I am trying to download software for the clear internet network.  It is telling me that I am running in a 64 bit mode and
    need to be in a 32 bit mode to run their software....can I and how do I change it to a 32 bit mode?

    Wow that was really quick, thank you so much.  Im not sure at all which version it was because i said it was around 4 years ago he bought it.  I know it isn't under his username, since he's a PC person (ugh) so i know its probably registered to one of our actual names.  isn't there some way to look it up since we did register it, because I'm not even sure where the disks are from when we bought it (we've moved a lot and also have two storage lockers, i know i would have kept it with other disks) but my cd rom drive is actually broken on my computer as well ( i think it got stepped on and is now squished and won't eject or run disks.)
    So is there anyway they can look up that its registered to one of our names since we did register it when we bought and installed it, or do i really have to find the disk with some sort of proof of purchase (i know there would be no receipt after all this time)
    either way, ill do what you suggested to the best of my abilities and thank you so much for answering my questions, i can't even open the program as its incompatible and find out the info from that) so I'm in a bit of a pickle and your response was so thorough and it didn't seem to be posted long enough to even write a well researched response, thanks, all the best,

  • Safari in 64-bit mode on Snow Leopard does not play YouTube videos

    Recently Safari stopped playing youtube videos while Safari is in 64-bit mode. The entire page renders correctly; however the area where the video is supposed to play remains a black box without controls. I can watch video from other sites, or I can watch video from youtube if I use another browser like firefox. Additionally, I can go to the youtube video owner's channel and view videos there just fine. It's only when I try to view videos that use the "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=" method of displaying a video using Safari in 64-bit mode that it fails to play -- it plays fine with Safari in 32-bit mode.

  • Running Macbook in 64-bit mode

    Hi there,
    I've just installed Snow Leopard onto my 13" Aluminium MacBook (Late 2008 model), and noticed that my MacBook is still running in 32-bit mode.
    How do I change it to 64-bit mode? I've tried holding down the 64 keys and then pressing shutdown but nothing pops up, it just shuts down as normal and is still in 32-bit mode.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks.

    It is normal. The kernel runs on 32-bit mode, but the applications will run on 64-bit.
    Running kernel in 64-bit mode is only useful if you have more than 32 GB of RAM. You won't notice any speed improvement running the kernel on 64-bit
