I updated Safari above what is permitted on OSX 10.7.5. How do I fix this?

I have a computer that is running 10.7.5 and I updated safari to version 6 but apparently it is not supported on this version of OSX but now I cannot revert back to an older version because for some reason it prevents me from doing so. Does anybody know a way to fix this?

I simply googled it. I didn't remember there was a reason that I hadn't updated it before.
Although I think I've found a solution on another thread.

Was there a specific error code or error message other than what you state in your post? Perhaps this link will help:

Apologies for the slightly pedantic answer, but in application terms, "closed" and "quit" are two different things. An application such as Safari can have several windows open, and each of them can be closed using the red button in the corner.
However, even after all windows are closed, the application is still running until you specifically quit it. You can tell it's still running by the small light under its icon in the Dock. If you hold your cursor down on the icon for a few seconds, you should see a pop up menu with the "Quit" option - click that to quit it. Or, click the icon once (this may launch a new window), then either go to the Safari menu and click Quit, or click cmd-Q, to completely quit the app.

When i try to connect to my yahoo email via the Mail thingy, it will say "user name or password for apple.imap.mail.yahoo.com is incorrect even though my yahoo password and user name is correct.
This is copied from your first post. Am I reading this wrong? Aren't you saying that you are getting a message that the username and password are incorrect? That's why I asked another the word apple in the name. I don't use Yahoo mail that may in fact be correct but I'm just checking,
IF you are getting a message that the username and password are incorrect.....
Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

You need to restore your iPhone via recovery mode by following the instructions in http://support.apple.com/HT1212 and it may take more than one attempt to finish the job.

I updated. iPod touch 4th gen to ios5. In middle. Of update parent shut of computer accidentally.now my iPod friezes up.how can I fix this

My iPod touch is freezing up alot . Because one of my parents shutdown my computer accidentally during it's ios5 update. How can I fix this and make it go back to normal?

Try the standard fixes one at a time:
- Reset. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup via iTunes
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
If you stiull have a problem then you likely have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

What the heck is a "Kernal panic" and how can I fix this?

Lately, several of my partitions (external firewire) running OS 10.3.9 have crashed and are no longer bootable. one partition crashed upon being turned on, and said that there was 'no driver for powerbook 6, 5' and 'kernal stopping here...' I started up from a different partition, and installed the latest security update, and that repaired my kernal, but now for some reason, I am not an 'administrator,' but I am the only user of this computer. any suggestions?
someone had this happen in class, and I found out that the problem that I was experiencing was called a 'kernal panic,' and now I want to know why this happens, how to prevent this from happening, and the best software tool to check the health of my system folder. anyone got any suggestions?
I'm considering installing a clean version of OS 10.3.3, and updating to 10.3.9, but if there is a faster way to fix this, then I'm all ears! thanks!

Patddfan:
From your description of what is happening it does not sound like a kernel panic. See What’s a kernel panic. In terms of what to do see: Resolving Kernel Panics
I suspect that your HDD is in serious need of maintenance. Here's what I would do:
1. Go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility. In the left panel select your HDD (manufacturer ID), and in the main panel select the First Aid tab. Click Repair Disk Permissions.
2. Boot from your install disk. Go to the Installer menu and launch Disk Utility. Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in left panel and First Aid in main panel. Click Repair Disk. If DU reports disk needs no repair quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors, click Repair again, and again until DU reports the disk is repaired. If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need to use a utility like Tech Tool Pro or Disk Warrior.
3. Download MacJanitor and run all the procedures, the follow regular schedule.
4. Take a look at Gulliver's article Mac OS X System Maintenance and implement procedures.
Please post back with further questions or comments.
Good luck.

ITunes 10.5 won't update files properly on my iPod Touch 4G running iOS 5, how can I fix this?

I recently updated iTunes to 10.5 and my iPod Touch 4G to iOS 5, but now when I try to edit the ID3 tags or artwork of songs on my
iPod using iTunes, iTunes just says "Preparing to update files" but it never actually updates them. When I try to add songs
manually to iPod (my iPod is not set up to sync music with iTunes [see note below]), the same thing happens, with the newly added
songs appearing on the iPod library but are grayed out with a still loading icon next to them. Also, in some instances when I try
to change the artwork of all the songs on an album, it grays out the songs I tried to change, puts an exclamation mark by them,
and applies those changes to other songs on my iPod! And if I delete the songs I attempted to change it deletes the songs that
were received the artwork change. The songs that were unintentionally changed somehow got overwritten by the songs I was trying to
change while retaining the original tags of the songs that were changed. Not sure if I'm explaining this clearly so let me give an
example: song A is a song on an album on my iPod, song B is on song on a completely different album on the iPod. When I change the
artwork on song A, it somehow messes up my library and song A overwrites song B, but it keeps all of song B's ID3 tags. So I don't
know song B is song A until I play song B, at which point the ID3 tags are changed to the tags of the song A, and song B is just
disappears. This only started happening after updating to iTunes 10.5 and iOS 5. Not sure if the problem is caused by iTunes 10.5
or iOS 5, but I did search online and found someone with the exact same problem effecting their iTunes 9.1 (no iPod involved).
Can someone please tell me why this is happening and how I can fix it?
Note:
I add songs manually to iPod because I don't keep my music on my PC and sync my music with iTunes because it would take up too
much space and I want to be able to add songs on my iPod from other computers. Once you set it up to sync music I believe it
disables making any changes to your iPod with iTunes on other computers.

okay, I don't know about the rest, but about the songs never actually loading onto your iPod, I found in another discussion how to fix that. I'm using Windows 7, so I don't know if the steps are the same, but the end result is the same. So go into your Start menu, then into accessories, right click 'Command Prompt' and click 'Run as administrator'. Then type in the following: netsh winsock reset then press Enter. After a few seconds it should tell you to to restart your computer for changes to take effect. Restart your computer, then restart iTunes, then everything should be working fine. It still takes forever sometimes to update the iPod, but eventually it will work. I've had to do this multiple times, so I'd suggest copying & pasting this solution into a notepad or Word document and saving it on your computer, so you don't have to go through the discussions again to find it. This tends to happen to me nearly every day unfortunately Hope this fixes that problem, but I'm not having any of the other problems fortunately, except for removing the artwork of the songs it updates without me asking it too. PS I think my problem may be with iOS 5, because iTunes 10.5 came out before iOS 5, and I think everything was fine before I updated my iPod, but I really don't know where the problem lies

I installed a suggested update, now I am not able to send/receive messages. How can I fix this?

I installed a suggested update, now I am not able to send/receive messages. Any advice on how to fix this problem?

No third party apps, no signatures, we've cleared out contacts and are using just the numbers. She ended up dropping her phone and got a new one. She has a Galaxy S5, I'm still on my Lumia 928.
I did a live chat with someone here, based on her suggestions we both power off our phones, remove/replace simm cards, restart phones regularly and this issue is still occurring.
This issue ONLY happens with her, even when I'm at places that have horrible service, I receive messages/calls from everyone except her after I leave the trouble areas. My phone tells me she is receiving my messages when she claims she isn't, her phone tells her I am receiving her messages when I am not.

My homepages go back to my old default, no matter what changes I make to them in options - how do I fix this?

I have tried many different combinations; not even the "restore to main default" button works. No matter what I do, the same set of homepages comes up the next time I load Firefox. I know there is a way to fix this - it happened to me once before, years ago - but I can't find the solution I used last time. (It might have been a mozdev page, but I didn't have any luck there, either.) I just installed Firefox 3.6.15 today, and tried again, still no luck. I've been messing with this for months now, trying to come up with a solution - please help?

Thank you so much cor-el, that did the trick. Getting rid of the user.js file was all it took. I knew the answer was a simple one, I just couldn't find it. I think I just wasn't asking the right questions.
Thanks again.
