My friend says:I can open Safari OK, but as soon as I try to open Google, Safari shuts down. It either does so immediately, or once I type an address or search name into Google.Mac OSX version 10.3.9, and Safari 1.3.2

On behalf of a friend (who obviously cannot get on-line):
I can open Safari OK, but as soon as I try to open Google, Safari shuts down. It either does so immediately, or once I type an address or search name into Google. The systems no longer seem to be compatible. All was well until about three weeks ago. I've pressed the Safari Reset button several times to try that, to no avail.
The operating system is Mac OSX version 10.3.9, and Safari is 1.3.2.
Is there a solution? He does say his iMac is old and the OS antedeluvian
Would welcome any thoughts!
B

Sorry to say it, but he is correct!
Solution? Either update the OS and Safari if possible, or start saving!

    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    and in the UK:
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
    Check via Software Update whether further updates are required.
    You should now see the App Store icon, and you now need to set up your account:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
    To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
    You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

  • My dad has a brand new iMac. If he quits an app, this window closes, but the app won't finish shutting down, Force quitting does not work.  Once another app is opened, it will not close either.  Now none of the apps are responding. Any ideas?

    My dad has a brand new iMac. If he quits an app, this window closes, but the app won't finish shutting down, Force quitting does not work.  Once another app is opened, it will not close either.  Now none of the apps on the dock are responding. I asked him to click on the apple, and drop down to "About this Mac", but that wouldn't open either. Any ideas?  If I was at his house, I would call Apple Care in a heartbeat, but am home with my sick daughter,,,  Thanks!

    For starters, have him open Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, select the volume (the indented listing) and Verify Disk. If it reports any problems, have him try a Safe Boot by holding the Shift key at startup. This boot will take much longer than usual. It's checking and trying to repair the drive directory, if possible. Once in Safe Boot, have him repair Permissions.
    For other Disk repair remedies see
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1417
    Also, have him try a PRAM Reset. At the startup chime, hold down CMD-Option-P-R together, listen for two more chimes, total three, then let go to finish booting.
    Also, is he running any AV? If so, have him uninstall it. It might be responsible for this behavior. (There are no viruses for OS X.)

  • In Numbers, I can see my documents but they have the top right corner turned over with a down arrow, what does that mean?

    In Numbers, I can see my documents but they have the top right corner turned over with a down arrow, what does that mean? I touch it and nothing happens.
    I have recently done a full restore because my iPad and iPhone were mis-behaving and wouldn't work they way I expected with Windows XP and Outlook 2003 and now when I check iCloud.com, all my documents are gone, yet my iPad hints that they may still be somewhere but where are they?

    That is the orientation lock symbol, you can not go to landscape orientation. Tap the home button twice, swipe the task bar to the right, tap on the 'circle' icon at the left to unlock the orientation. You will then be able to view items in portrait and landscape mode.

  • MAC OSX version 10.5.1 and I can't seem to open any PDF - FILES HELP

    I am having a lot of frustrations opening any pdf files on Safari.
    I re-installed adobe acrobat reader 7.0.9 and nothing is happening.
    Everytime I attempt to open up a PDF file it's blank or black.

    MAC OSX version 10.4.11 and I can't seem to open any PDF
    I'm having this problem as well. I have both Acrobat Professional 8.1.2 and Adobe Reader 8.1.2 installed with the proper internet plug-in, using OS 10.4.11. When I try to open a pdf file in Safari I get a window asking me to choose an application to open the file, but both applications are dimmed and cannot be selected. I have tried re-installing Acrobat Reader, but without success. In Firefox I simply get a blank, darkened window. __Previously, before I installed Leopard and was using Tiger, I had Acrobat Reader 7.0 as well as AR 8.0 installed, and I was only able to select AR 7.0, but it worked. Now nothing works. This is a serious problem that Adobe needs to address!

  • Safari quits unexpectedly as soon as I try to open it...?

    Hey, guys! (:
    So I installed a bunch of software updates today on one of the Users on my Mac.
    Problem is, now whenever I try to open Safari, it immediatly "quits unexpectedly."
    This only happens under the User that I updated today, so it's definitely not an internet problem or anything.
    I already looked through several old discussions for help, & they all recommended deleting third-party files and such..except that when I looked for them in Finder, I couldn't locate any of them. I can't access anything from the Safari toolbar since it quits right away.
    Any help would be very appreciated! Thanks!

    Launch the Console application by entering the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search, and look under "User Diagnostic Reports" for crash logs related to Safari, WebProcess, or PluginProcess. Select the most recent one and post the contents -- the text, please, not a screenshot.

  • When watching shows from my itunes with apple tv I can watch one show, but as soon as I try and watch a second it won't load.

    I just got my first apple tv.  It streams netflix beautifully and connected to my network and computer quickly.  Currently the bulk of my itunes library is on a PC, so I am attempting to stream from that.  I can watch a show or an episode of a tv show just fine, but when I try and watch the second I get the spinning wheel and nothing loads.  If I reset my apple tv and then turn home sharing off and on again I can watch another episode.  I disabled my firewall and my anti virus on my desktop to see if that was the problem, still I am watching one episode at a time.  HELP!

  • I have a Mac OSX Version 10.4 and iphoto 6. I cannot upgrade to a later version of iphoto 6 because it requires a 10.5.6 or later. What can I do?

    I have a Mac OSX version 10.4.11 and iphoto 6. I can no longer order cards, prints etc. and cannot upgrade to a newer version of iphoto because I don't meet the system requirements of 10.5.6 or later. What can I do?

    Unless you upgrade the OS and then iPhoto, not a lot, I'm afraid.

  • Trying to add titles in IMovie. Using IMovie 8.0.6 and Mac OSX version 10.6.8.  When I try to add titles IMovie shuts down.  What do I need to do to stop the shut downs?

    I can not add Titles in IMovies.  When I click on the Titles, IMovie shuts down.  I am using Mac OSX Version 10.6.8 and IMovies version 8.0.6
    Was able to add some Titles yesterday, but had some problems with shut downs.  Today I can not get past clicking on Titles without a shutdown

    DK Flash,
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3310 but you have 10.6.8. So this shouldn't apply. But just in case.
    This had to do with the Far Far Away title causing iMovie to quit.
    Try clearing caches and plist.
    Do the behavior persist in a new user on the computer?

    Do you have networkmanager installed?
    Nevermind, while that does seem to be an error with nmapplet, it would appear that you also have a problem with policykit.  Are you using a desktop manager to load gnome?
    Edit: Eh, nevermind that also.  I'm guessing the bottom two lines is a segmentation fault.  Not sure what is going on with the gnome-shell-calendar-server.  Hopefully someone more familiar with gnome than me shows up to help you.
