Latest Safari upgrade is a complete BUST!!!

Downloaded the latest Safari upgrade around May 30, 2010. I've had problems with it since then. #1: It is slow, slow, slow, slow, slow. And after waiting for 3 or 4 minutes, the website I'm trying to open just doesn't open. The best way to describe it is like you've filled up your SDRAM and there's no place to put anything else, so it goes slow then won't allow you to do anything online. Safari has "unexpectedly quit" or as everyone else says: crashed. If I'd known the latest Safari upgrade was going to be so buggy and slowwwwwwwwwwww, I would never have "upgraded the software". My question is: is there a way to uninstall the latest upgrade and go back to the next level down?? That version of Safari worked just fine.

I recently reinstalled the 10.6.8 combo update because I wanted to go back to Safari 5.0.5 because 5.1 was giving me lots of problems. 10.6.8 combo worked fine and Safari 5.0,5 is back and works great. Repaired permissions but Software Update tells me there is no new software. That is wrong. I should have a few updates available including obviously Safari 5.1. I deleted cache and Software Update preferences but it still says there is nothing available.
Anyone know how to completely clear out Software Update so it will scan my drive for new software? There must be a file to delete that I am missing.

Latest Safari Upgrade

Thanks for the latest Safari 1.3.2 update for OS X 10.3.9 users. I don't usually write stuff like this, but the upgrade made Safari load very noticeably faster and easier to use. I was leaning more and more towards using Firefox as my main browser, but now will continue to use Safari.

Just to clarify: These Forums are user to user. Apple's policty is not to read the posts here, so questions and comments for them should be made using the Feedback link on the first Discussions page.

Install of latest Firefox upgrade won't complete, now having multiple problems and can't find how to revert back to previous mode.

I got a prompt to upgrade, but the install mechanism just keeps looping, says connecting but nothing ever happens. Daily I get warnings to install, and each effort ends as above. Now some of the prompt boxes (such as "are you sure you want to delete...") appear in subdued/basic mode. I was going to simply revert back to the previous edition that worked, but can't find how to do that.

I am having an issue with the Software Update also. The window says, "It is strongly recommended that you apply this update for Firefox as soon as possible"....It won't let me see the information of this update. I click on it as it highlights but nothing happens. So when I do click next it starts to update but updates all day long. It is not right. I thought maybe a virus? Could somebody tell me what to do? It is constantly happening everyday. thank You!!

Safari upgrade crashed my iBook - can't start the computer anymore!

After the latest Safari upgrade, all I get is a blue screen when I start my iBook.
I've tried holding down the option key while restarting to be able to select the hard drive and then boot, but that didn't work. All I get is a blue screen or a grey one with the Apple in the middle.
The upgrade worked just fine on my new iMac, so it is not a network problem.
Any ideas?

Sorry not to get back to you sooner. I was out all day.
I noticed in your original post that you mentioned an iMac. Do you have a Firewire cable? (I think it is a 6 pin to 6 pin that you need). If yes, make sure the iBook is turned off. Attach the firewire to both machines and start up the iBook holding down the 'T' key. This should put you into Target Disc Mode, and your HD will appear on the iMac's Desktop. You can then open Disk Utility on the iMac, select the iBook's HD, and try to repair it this way. Disk Utility is located in the Applications Folder, under Utilities. THe next thing I can think of trying, if the above does not work, is to reset the PMU. It may not help, but it shouldn't hurt, either. For instructions on how to do this go here:

Hope some of this helps.

Why does my iPhone no longer give me the option to connect to my tv via Apple TV when on Safari as it previously did following my latest software upgrade?

Thanks for your help, much appreciated.
Same phone, same tv, same broadband network so everything the same so I assumed that it would.....just work!!! :-)
I'm away this weekend but I'm going to turn off and reload the Apple TV to see if that might work.
If not I may be begging your assistance again next week!!!
Have a great weekend.

This latest version of Firefox is complete pants! Why can I no longer have a nice, tidy little row of icons across the top so that I click and find things at an instance like I could with the Google Toolbar?

This latest version of Firefox is complete pants! Why can I no longer have a nice, tidy little row of icons across the top so that I can click and find things at an instance, like I could with the Google Toolbar?
Example:- I've just spent 20 minutes looking how to 'translate' after I installed that add-on, there it was! A tiny little icon in the bottom right of the screen, I find the new set up very messy and very hard to navigate. Why can't I have the same set up on my toolbar that I've had for the last ten years? It's that bad that I'm even considering going back to I.E.

Thanks but you're only telling me stuff I already know, that dosen't explain how I get the new version of Firefox to look neat and tidy like it always used to. I can no longer have all my icons that I use, I can no longer access things as easily as I could and the whole thing looks very bare and basic now! A bigger mess than even Google Chrome.
I've spent most of this evening trying to get stuff back that is now lost because of this 'upgrade' and I'm now giving up with it. Well done! You've totally ruined what was the best browser for years.

I have a Adobe CC Photography plan and I would like to Upgrade for the Complete plan, What should I do? my account is Brazilian

Adobe only sell the latest version of Creative Suite which is CS6 so you can't buy CS5 anymore. Upgrades are also only available from CS5 to CS6 so CS3 wouldn't qualify anyway.
I'm afraid you are out of luck.

Safari upgrade question

can anyone tell me if i can upgrade my safari from 5.1 version to 6.0 version on my macbook pro 10.6.8 os

The latest Safari version for your Mac OS X version (10.6.8) is Safari 5.1.7, so the only way to get Safari 6 is to upgrade to OS X Lion or Mountain Lion.
If you want to upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion, open App Store and purchase it. While it's downloading, make a backup of your data, and check that your applications are supported > http://www.roaringapps.com
After upgrading, the installed Safari will be Safari 6.0.2, the most recent version

Safari Toolbar on latest Safari search engine

Have not been able to customize the Safari Toolbar on 3 separate computers .
I can add features and Icons but if I quit Safari and restart it, the default icons without the new ones that I added appear .
Have re installed Safari and have tested it on a friends apple comp as well ,Also with latest Safari
Does any one else have this problem and does any one have any solutions .
Many thanks

Hi Amr
In the Finder: Your User Account>Library>Preferences. There, move the com.apple.safari.plist file to the trash, then restart Safari.
This resets Safari Preferences to default values. Restore any custom settings in Preferences, View Menu, customize toolbar, and Edit menu (spelling). When complete, quit/restart Safari.

Upgraded to HD Complete XF bundle- confused by bill

So I got the HD Complete XF Triple Play because I want all the channels available, as well as the fastest internet service offered and digital voice. According to the Comcast website, this bundle includes:AnyRoom® DVR service so you can watch recorded shows in any room you want up to 4 rooms – and in HD. Plus, get stunning HD picture quality included for 3 additional TVs. That's a total of up to 4 TVs with HD service!Over 200 digital channels, including HBO®, Starz®, Cinemax®, Showtime® and The Movie Channel®.Thousands of On Demand movies and TV shows – on TV and online.Sports Entertainment Package, including NFL RedZone.Faster Internet speeds.Wireless Gateway to connect your whole house and all your devices to the Internet.Constant Guard – the most comprehensive online protection of any Internet Service Provider – included at no extra cost (a $360 value).Unlimited local and long-distance calling to the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico.Voicemail plus 12 popular calling features including Caller ID, Call Waiting, and more.Backed by the 30-Day Money-Back Comcast Customer Guarantee.On my latest bill, here is what I'm getting charged for:HD Complete XF Bundle 05/18 - 06/17 - $199.99 Additional XFINITY TV Services
Complete Add'l Outlet Svc 05/18 - 06/17 0.00
HDTV Converter with Remote Control.
HD Technology Fee 05/18 - 06/17 9.95
Digital Additional Outlet 05/18 - 06/17 9.95
SD Set Top Box 05/18 - 06/17 9.95
Additional SD Set Top Box
Sports Tier 05/18 - 06/17 7.00
Total Additional XFINITY TV Services $36.85
Additional XFINITY Voice Services - $9.95
Modem Lease-Voice 05/18 - 06/17 7.00
Non-Published 05/18 - 06/17 4.50
UCC Fee 05/18 - 06/17 1.00 Here are my questions:1. The first bullet under the Complete XF Triple Play description says that it includes HD service to four rooms. It seems that I need to get new set top boxes from Comcast that support this feature. Will I have to pay extra to rent the three additional set top boxes?2. Do the anyroom DVR compatible set top boxes only work with HD televisions? (I've got two HD TVs and two SD TVs)3. If I'm supposed to have up to 4 TVs with HD service, why am I getting charged for an additional digital outlet?4. Why am I getting charged an HD technology fee? Isn't HD service specifically part of the bundle?5. Am I supposed to pay extra for the voice modem or is that supposed to be included in the bundle?6. Why am I still paying for the sports tier separately? Does the sports entertainment package included in the bundle not include the sports tier???7. I pay for the non-published number (I've paid for this feature for as long as I've been with Comcast...6 years), but my name, phone number, and address still show up in the local phone books. What gives? If you're still reading, thank you. I know this post is probably longer than usual. Any insight into my questions above would be greatly appreciated. Over the last 6 years I've been with Comcast, I've found that I often get incorrect and conflicting information depending on which customer service representative I end up talking to, which is why I chose to post my questions here.

I am also confused by bill. Somone was to call me back, never did. Also, someone to call my husband back due to his not being able to reply to his email on our home computer, although at work he's fine and his cell is fine (???) I upgraded to HD Complete Xf. Is this different than X1 Platform ??? I"m so confused. Firt they told me on the phone that there was a special at $199/mo for 12 mos. But, my bill states 245.49 with -20.50 for total Bundled services at $224.99 ???? too much to list, I just called and asked that they have the same bill in front of them so we can go over line-by-line....wasn't happening. Now I'm supposed to get a call from a supervisor tonight..... way too convoluted.

Full and Latest Safari for Leopard

Can someone point me where to download the full and latest Safari for Mac OS X Leopard ? Not the update one. I think I have corrupted the Safari by using a third party software.
I have tried to download from the apple website, but it seems cant be installed on my macbook.
Thanks.

Ouch - is there an uninstaller in the SafariSpeed package?
You could use the shareware program Pacifist to extract Safari 3.1.2 from the MacOSXUpdCombo10.5.5.dmg. I am not sure if this will fix all the damage though. Did you not backup recently with Time Machine - if so, you can restore your system prior to when you installed SafariSpeed.
If this does not work then you have a little work ahead doing an archive and install to completely restore your system.

Acpi_call-git and latest kernel upgrade

Hi,
as you could see reading comments on the acpi_call-git AUR package page, acpi_call-git package is not ready for the latest kernel upgrade.
The fix proposed doesn't work for me, I still get:

enrico

same problem here.
I 've edited the PKGBUILD git repo with dkao's repo he fixed the build with this commit:
https://github.com/dkao/acpi_call/commi … dccd49caef
Now the module builds, but...
I think the pkgbuild in a bad shape, it isn't installing the kernel module.
I've tried a manual insmod and depmod -a with no luck.
Did something has changed with the module installation procedure using kmod? modules has to be signed or gz compressed?
EDIT:
well I've succeeded.
1) modify git repo to dkao's in git url
2) go to /tmp/yaourt-tmp-user/aur-acpi_call-git/src/acpi_call-build (before merging the package)
3) make install
4) depmod -a
5) turn_off_gpu.sh

Latest safari

the latest safari and the same problems continue. But worst than the other versions. The flash plug in much more hog the cpu and mem than ever. More lag on the web sites. These updates completely unuseful.
Is there anyone's advice to make this browser accurate. ??
or the only solution is uninstalling it and try another browser ?
Thanks.

HI,
Install ClickToFlash so you have more control.
http://clicktoflash.com/
You can access the Settings from your Safari menu once it's installed.
Works fine on v10.6.5 and Safari 5.0.3

HT1212 my ipad is disabled after doing latest iso upgrade, did not recognise passcode, will not allow system restore,,,,, help needed

my ipad did not recognise pass code and was disabled after completing latest apple upgrade,,, thanks alot apple, i now have a $800 clock,,,can anyone help

Follow the instructions from the link you posted from > iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
If nothing there helps, contact Apple > Contacting Apple for support and service

HT1529 The latest version of iTunes has completely changed my ability to access my iTunes. I can no longer burn a CD that will play on anything other than another computer.

The latest version of iTunes has completely changed the format and also why will it not allow me to burn a CD compatible with other devices?

I'm using iTunes 11.1.1 on a Mac mini running OS 10.7.5 and I burn CDs which play in this machine's external optical drive, my car, and the Pioneer audio CD players downstairs. I typically use Verbatim recordble CDs. After selecting the playlist I want to burn, I make sure that "Audio CD" is selected - this has always been the default for me. If this isn't working for you, I don't know what to say - but I'd suspect the drive you're using to burn CDs is getting wonky.
Good luck
