Installing previous version of Safari

I am running Safari 5.1 on Snow Leopard and would like to go back to the previous version of Safari (5.0.5?). How can I do that?
Thanks.

If you have the older Safari version on a TimeMachine backup you can simply restore it to your applications folder. If not, download and run the 10.6.8 Update Combo from Apple http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399 and it will bring you back to 5.0.5. Both methods worked for me without any issues.

  • How can I install a version of Safari compatible with MacOS 7.5

    At some point I downloaded and installed Safari 6.0.2 on a MacBook Pro (4.1) running OS 10.7.4. When I tried to open it, an error message appeared stating that this version of Safari is incompatible with OS 10.7.x and is compatible with OS 10.8. Since then I updated to OS 10.7.5. After completing the update the iCloud System Preferences automatically opened. Next to the Bookmarks Icon was a button saying "Install Safari." Pushing this button brings me to a webpage that appears to be advertising copy for Safari but seems to lack any option for downloading Safari. Searching for an OS 10.7.5 compatible version I came across a page with quite a number of Safari downloads at Apple - Support - Downloads. This page offers dowloads of Saafari for earlier versions of Safari, but not for an OS 10.7.x compatible version of Safari. What is the solution? If I upgraded to OS 10.8 or OS 10.9 would I gain access to Safari once again? I'd be most appreciative of any help with this issue. Thanks.

    Thanks Z-B-B for your quick response. I downloaded and installed the version of Safari (6.1.4) that is described as compatible with OS 10.7.5.on the website you suggested. I restarted the computer. After it restarted Safari had regained its proper icon. However, when I tried to open Safari, it immediately crashed with the following error message:

  • Firefox 4 wont even start up now. how do i uninstall firefox 4 and install previous version

    want to know how to uninstall firefox 4 and install previous version. also where to get download of previous version

    Your problem is caused by the Ask Toolbar which you have installed. There are compatibility issues between Ask and Firefox at the moment.
    Please do the following to ensure a clean installation.<br><br>
    #Use Internet Explorer to download Firefox 4.0.1 from this link: [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/?ref=logo Download Firefox 4.0.1] and choose "'''Save'''" when you see the prompt. Then save it to your desktop. ''Do not choose "Run"''.<br><br>
    #Then go to Add/Remove Programs, scroll down to "Mozilla Firefox" and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (''don't checkmark the box'').<br><br>
    #Then reboot and delete the folder called "Mozilla Firefox" at this location: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox<br><br>
    #Finally run the installation file you downloaded to the desktop earlier.<br>
    Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation.<br>
    Next, click the Firefox button and go to Add-ons, then Extensions. Find the Ask Toolbar in there and click "Remove".
    If you would still prefer to use the previous secure version, use this download link instead of the one to v4.0.1: [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html Download Firefox v3.6.17] Otherwise the installation procedure and removal of the Ask Toolbar is the same.

  • How do I download a previous version of Safari?

    And also, how do I change my email address?

    You don't download a previous version of Safari, run Software Update and accept all the updates (if any) for your system. You would change your email address by contacting your ISP.

  • Can't install any version of Safari for my Dad

    I'm visiting my dad, and trying to get Safari installed for him. Somehow he managed to trash it - we're not sure how. Now I can't install any version of Safari. 1.x is too old. He's running OSX10.4.10 so 2.0.1 doesn't work either. I really don't even want to put 3 on here - he's a very basic user and doesn't need beta headaches.
    The only disks we have are the system disks ... do I have to reinstall an old version of system to get Safari working for him?

    Hi
    Have a look at this Apple article for installing other software, including Safari, from the Tiger DVD - see the section titled More custom reinstallation options with Mac OS X 10.4.
    Steps to take in addition to the Apple article:
    Move the Safari.pkg file in the HD>Library>Receipts folder to the trash.
    As a precaution, prior to reinstalling Safari, move the Safari Folder, found in the User Library to the Desktop. It has the personal bookmarks, history etc. Once the reinstall is completed, move the folder back to its original location writing over the newly created folder.
    Remember too, the version of Safari you install will be specific to the Version on the installer DVD. Therefore, either run Software Update and see if Safari updates appear. If not, reapply the 10.4.10 combined update to bring Safari up to the current version.
    Repair permissions via Disk Utility in your Utilities folder when you are finished.

  • Can't install a version of Safari compatible with OS 10.7.4

    Both my MacBook Pro and MacPro are running )S 10.7.4. The version of Safari on my Mac Pro is more recent (6.0) than the one that was on my MacBook Pro. So I thought to update Safari on the MacBook Pro and I downloaded and installed Safari 6.0.3 It turns out, of course, that I can't use this version of Safari with OS 10.7.4 but there was no warning to this effect when I started the installation. I had a retained a downloaded version of Safari 5.1`.7 for Lion and tried to install it, but when I did an error message appeared stating that I could not install it since I had a newer version of Safari already installed. So this appears to be a Catch 22 sityuation in which I have installed an unusable version of Safari installed on my computer and it won't let me install a usable version. The fact is that I'm not going to install OS 10.8.x anytime soon, because some software that I use in my work is currently incompatible with the newer OS. What I have done for the moment is make Chrome my default browser. But I would be most appreciative if someone could tell me how to uninstall Safari 6.0.3 and renistal Safari 5.1.7 for Lion on my MacBook Pro. Thanks!

    You ought to have 10.7.5 and the latest security update on both Lion macs, in which case 6.0.3 should work, or at least allow installing it again, assuming it was the Safari6.0.3Lion.pkg you used.
    Failing that, (and it worked very well when I briefly tested rolling back from 6.0.2 to 5.1.7)... there is a 'repair' package that is intended to remove a broken 6.0.3 & revert to the previous version

    use at your own risk, and back-up first.

  • How Do I Remove Flash 11 and install previous version?

    Hi Everyone,
    While Flash Player 11 seems to work for me with most things (e.g. YouTube, most news and video sites, etc),  I find that it is crashing all the time when playing browser based games that use flash.
    I was over on Yahoo's website http://games.yahoo.com/free-games/ and found that it kept crashing on this page or crashing when trying to load any of the games listed on that page.
    Given these problems (and judging by the numerous posts on this forum... it looks like there are many issues with version 11), how can I uninstall Adobe Flash 11 and restore it back to version 10, x, x, x ?? 
    (Note: I am using x's just because I don't remember exactly what the previous version of Flash was)

  • Where can I download a previous version of Safari?

    Updated to 3,1 this morning, and the loss of shift key functionality in Gmail is a huge problem right now. I needed to spend the say sending out resumes in order to get a job, and it's a bit hard to make a good impression if I can't capitalize letters. Anyone know where I can find the last version of Safari, prior to 3.1? Thanks.

    Hello prof:
    Welcome to Apple discussions.
    Did you notice the BETA notation with the Safari 3 program? IMHO, Apple should have never released Beta software to the general public. Having said that, it is "normal" to have bugs in Beta software. Perhaps it should have a banner saying "use at your own risk."
    You could do an archive and install to restore everything:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
    You would, of course, have to update OS X from there.

  • Install previous versions of Media Encoder?

    I recently updated to Adobe Media Encoder CC 2014, and not wanting to keep older apps on my PC, uninstalled Adobe Media Encoder CC (the previous version). As luck would have it, I need the previous version, as Adobe has ceased supporting the FLV video format in Media Encoder CC 2014, per this posting: http://blogs.adobe.com/aftereffects/2014/06/removal-flv-f4v-swf-export-adobe-media-encoder -after-effects-premiere-pro.html
    I have visited this page, http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=160&platform=Windows, but after downloading and trying a few options I have found that these are just patches/updates, and I receive an "Update Failed Updates could not be applied" message.
    So, I'd like to install (while keeping the current version) the previous version on Media Encoder. Is this possible? I so, what web page do I find that on?

    Only once have I ever installed After Effects or Premier, and I already had Media Encoder before doing so. For example, with the old Creative Suite DVDs, I was able to select the individual install of Media Encoder without either of those programs.
    But now, I would at least like to have the last version of Media Encoder to support the FLV format, which was Media Encoder CC (not CC 2014). So I'm still needing to find where I begin the download or install process of:
    - Adobe Media Encoder CC
    - Or, as you say, Adobe After Effects CC
    How do I find those on the adobe.com website? Whenever I find files related to previous versions, they are only updates, but not the actual program installs.

  • How to install new version of safari and delete old one

    I am not sure what pieces of info are needed to help me so please be patient. Basically my hotmail is no longer working, telling me I need to download a new version of safari so I downloaded safari 3.12 however it is still not working on hotmail. I am not sure how to apply/install the new version of safari and get rid of the old version. If anyone knows how to help me...it is much appreciated...be specific as I seem to be mac-******** at times
    Thanks.

    Hello ec:
    Welcome to Apple discussions.
    As far as I know, you cannot download Safari and reinstall it successfully. Install Safari from your software install DVD and then run software update.
    I do not use Hotmail, so I have no information about that platform.

  • Install previous version after effects

    Hi,
    I have given up trying to get Premiere CC14 and After Effects CC14 to work.  I have wasted a whole day and lost a project.
    MTS file will not read in Prem CC14 after repeated attempts at moving files, renaming folders, sign-out and sign-in, rebooting etc
    These same files work just fine in Prem CC....go figure.
    Going to stick with previous version except that I uninsulated After Effects CC V12.2.2 and can't seem to find it any where.
    It does not appear in my Adobe Desktop app.
    Can some one please direct me to an install for this ?
    Thanks
    Mitch
    *** SOLVED
    You need to go to the Desktop App and select "Filter Apps" under the find new app section and choose previous version

    It shouldn't be necessary to reboot the computer to complete an update.<br />
    If a reboot is needed then that usually means that some (security) software is blocking files or you need elevated (UAC) permissions.<br />
    Run the Firefox program once as Administrator (right-click: Run as Administrator).<br />
    If that doesn't help then do a clean reinstall.<br />
    Download a fresh copy of Firefox ([http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html]) and do a reinstall of Firefox on top of the current version.<br />
    If that still causes the same problem then do a clean reinstall and remove the Firefox program folder.<br />
