June 9 (7), 2010 Safari Update Problems- Slower, Multiple Posting
I have Mac OS X, Version 10.6.3. 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, Memory 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3.
This is the first problem I’ve noticed w/ a software update.
On June 9, 2010 I downloaded a safari update that was an automatic software update. This was probably the “Safari 5.0” update, dated June 7, 2010, but I’m not 100% sure. I downloaded it the same day I got it & I have software updates scheduled to look every day for updates.
This update changed the menu bar to blue when loading a new address. Previously the menu bar was white & showed a grey band at the end of it that said “loading” when loading a new address. Now the grey band is absent.
The new improvement is horrible. On a site I post & reply to posts on, It is slower in moving around a site & loading a page than before the update. I don’t care about the blue band. While the previous grey band showed immediately when it began loading, the new blue expanding bar on the address doesn’t immediately change when loading.
When posting or replying, when pressing the “post” button it takes longer to respond than before. Now that the grey band that said “loading” isn’t present one isn’t sure if it took the command. If the “post” button is pressed more than once it now posts as many times as the button is pressed. Then extra posts have to be deleted, but w/ replies this isn’t possible. This is a awful feature. The previous address function was much more preferable.
Before this update, when posting, even if the “post” button was pressed multiple times, it would only post once whether an original blog/post or reply. On some sites it seems to work OK.
If Apple technicians monitor this site, please provide a correction for this asap. The improvements are awful.
The correction should have:
1) Replace the grey band that said “loading” even if the blue band remains.
2) Make pressing the “post button” multiple times only post once- like before.
3) Return the speed it previously moved around a site & posted. Removing the blue band is OK. I don't care about this.
❈❈❈ Can I safely remove all the Safari updates that were added on June 9, 2010 when I added this update to the trash bin? Will this return Safari safely to the previous settings? I’ve found in finder where it expands to show the exact updates that were added on June 9, 2010.
Could just selected ones be removed to accomplish what I want? Any suggestions?

If you want to report this issue to Apple's engineering, send a bug report or an enhancement request via its Bug Reporter system. To do this, join the Mac Developer Program—it's free and available for all Mac users and gets you a look at some development software. Since you already have an Apple username/ID, use that. Once a member, go to Apple BugReporter and file your bug report or enhancement request. The nice thing with this procedure is that you get a response and a follow-up number; thus, starting a dialog with engineering.
Alternatively, send Feedback, but that usually goes through support and marketing, although when it'll get to engineering is anyone's guess.
Finally, there's the Safari toolbar Report Bug tool.

  • My daughter downloaded the new safari update on her iMac and now it won't open without new os update

  • Getting Startup Disk Full message since downloading new Safari update

    I downloaded the new Safari update a few days ago… it took ages to do and whenever I now try to use Safari I get the Pinwheel of Death after about two minutes and then a message telling me my startup disk is full. It won't let me acknowledge the message or force-quit from Safari – I have to switch off at the button and restart.
    All I have on my MacBook are 15 Word documents and the Applications it shipped with (in fact I’ve actually dumped some in an attempt to clear space, as ell as dumping the cache folders)… I only use it to surf the net in the evenings and have no music or pictures on it.
    I'm not having this problem at all when using Firefox. Is it possible the update has a bug?

    You really need a bit more space than that, but try a bit of maintanance:
    Repairing permissions is important, and should always be carried out both before and after any software installation or update.
    Go to Disk Utility (this is in your Utilities Folder in your Application folder) and click on the icon of your hard disk (not the one with all the numbers).
    In First Aid, click on Repair Permissions.
    This only takes a minute or two in Tiger, but much longer in Leopard.
    Background information here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751
    and here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302672
    An article on troubleshooting Permissions can be found here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2963
    By the way, you can ignore any messages about SUID or ACL file permissions, as explained here:

    If you were having any serious problems with your Mac you might as well complete the exercise by repairing your hard disk as well. You cannot do this from the same start-up disk. Reboot from your install disk (holding down the C key). Once it opens, select your language, and then go to Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select your hard disk as before and click Repair.
    Once that is complete reboot again from your usual start-up disk.

  • New safari update

    Safari updated last night, Now I am having a problem with my keychain. It keep saying that there is no keychain for safari. When I go into keychain and enter my password it says its incorrect (even though it is) and wants me to reset it, so I did, and still nothing. This mac it only 6 months old and shouldn't be having these problems yet. My wifes mac did the same thing and after spending hundreds of dollars it is now a $1500 paperweight.

    First off...have you tired rebooting the computer?

  • New Safari update won't quit

    After installing the latest Safari update, the application refuses to quit when I try to logout. I have to go back to Safari and quit the program. Is this a common issue? Or am I doing something wrong?

    Hello and welcome to Apple Discussions...
    You need to update your system software, not just Safari.
    Click your Apple menu (top left corner of your screen) scroll down and click "Software Update...*
    When the updates are installed, repair disk permissions.
    Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

  • IMac crashing with new safari update

    my imac (i7 16 gig ram 18months old) crashers just after a startup and a message says to push any key as your system crashed all I have done is update safari how do I boot and do a check like we used to be able when the os came on a disk

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • New Safari User-former PC user-Slow Page Fills

    safari page fills seem slow even with cable modem hard connected. Any way to "tweak" performance or check for problems? My apologies but as a former PC user, there was usually tweaking to do....

    1. Yes it is helpful, but I would limit the choice to the latest version supported by Apple, because it's being tested with their apps. You can download them running "Software Update" from the Apple menu. If it doesn't propose any Java update, you are already running the latest one
    2. I am not aware of any. Other people may. I know of some applications that supposedly make downloads faster, but they often cause problems with Safari.
    Did you try my previous suggestion to run Firefox or Opera or Camino, just to have a comparison?

  • The new Safari update made my Laptop unusable

    Good day m'dears,
    I have a HP Pavilion dv 9000 lap top running a fully updated Vista OS. The update slowed the LT down to a crawl and I could not use Facebook or type emails in Outlook 2007.
    I have now unloaded Safari and put on Chrome, the LT is running better than I can ever remember it.
    So  very sad to relate this, as I love using Safari and really miss all it's functionality.

  • Verizon Jelly Bean update causing multiple texts?

    Yesterday I updated to the lastest Jelly Bean from Verizon (OTA, finally got it after hours of clearing data, etc.) but now, for some reason I keep receiving multiple text from people. They would send it, but then i'd get it 2 or 3 times. Just wondering if its possible when I downloaded the update something when wrong and they system didn't realize it.

        Hi there Drake90001,
    Getting the most recent software update is super exciting and I definitely want your phone to run smoothly. I will be delighted to provide some suggestions.
    As with any software update in our world of technology, anything can happen. I would have to say yes it is possible.  It may also be due to third party applications not being updated to function with the new software yet.
    Are you using the native messaging application or something else?
    Are you noticing it with anyone who messages you or is it only select numbers? 
    Have you noticed it happening only when you're in certain locations?
    Keep us updated!
    Thanks,

  • New safari update (5.1.2) for windows does not load any webpage. i can open safari but nothing happens.

    why wont it load?

    Try this:
    Bring up the Windows Task Manager.
    Look for a process called: "WebKit2WebProcess.exe" and there may be a *32 after the name.
    Now Look for a "Safari" process, there may be multiple instances, but the primary instance will be identified by the significantly more memory that it uses.
    Kill both processes.
    The Kill order may be important.
    If the WebKit process is running alone kill that first, and try to relaunch Safari.
    If a Safari process(s) is running, Kill the primary instance, The WebKit process should also go away but if not Kill WebKit too.
    It may take more that one launch attempt to clear the memory.
    Further,, you will likely have to do this at each Safari launch because these processes become unstable after short use - until Apple fixes this bug.

    Ps: I have no issues what so ever on Lion, just Windows 7

  • After new OS Update system runs extra slow!

    After OS Update to lates OS, runs super slow. I have tried every tip in the book and it is running extra slow.

    Hello wkerns
    It is well known that some desktops and notebooks as well will determine a drastic performance loss after the installation of XP SP 2.check also this article http://www.dvhardware.net/article3135.html .
    I have the same situation with My Satellite P10. The unit need about 20 seconds longer before I am able to use operating system. I really dont know what can be done to make it better. I have read that the processor driver should be exchanged with processor drivers used before SP2. I didnt try it yet.

  • The new Safari update

    So I am running a dual boot and this weekend I ran updates on both sides. While I am on my mac side of the partition, I noticed my cpu heats up drastically while I am on safari. Is this due to the web-toolkit safari is using or because of my windows updates on drivers?
    One thing I noticed is that when I use chrome instead of safari, the laptop becomes a lot cooler.
    Thanks.

    Try troubleshooting Safari extensions and third party plugins to see if it makes a difference in operating temperatures.
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
    If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
    Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect:  Allow plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.
