Safari 3 - Apple's stupidity driving me round the bend...
Safari 3 has stopped working properly on my PPC iMac at work; the app quits every time I close a window. A crashed external hard drive has left me without the original installer and I wanted to try to reinstall it.
Unbelievably, there is no longer a download link for the Mac version of Safari 3! I can download it for Windows...
The best they can come up with is to tell us that Safari 3 is available as part of the 10.4.11 update, but my iMac is already running on 10.4.11 so Software update won't download it.
I've ploughed through the entire list of standalone installer downloads and can't find Safari beta for Mac.
I really don't know what Apple are playing at...
Try extracting it from the 10.4.11 combo update for PowerPC:

I have done what the forums ask which is to ensure that the computer is activated in iTunes.
Still no joy. I am getting extremely frustrated as this has been going on for a long time an I just abandon every time, it does not endear me to the technology and I question the sanity of those who love Apple so much.
Please help, I feel held to ransom if I have to re-purchase what is already mine.

FCP 6.04 spinning its wheels on simple render and driving me round the bend
Hello all:
So everything was going swimmingly... normal work-flow, nothing weird, not asking it to render Hi-Def NTSC anamorphic into SD SECAM 4:3 with a twist of lemon. Just plain old simple rendering of basic effects and filters, etc.
So, for some reason my Mac in league with FCP has decided that these are arduous tasks. FCP spins its wheels (you know, the psychedelic spinning circle that makes you immediately go, "oh f##k!"
After about 20 seconds of teeth clenching spinning it suddenly wakes up and goes, "oh, well that's not so hard..." and then completes the render in 2 seconds.
This is has not happened before... but been going on now for about 2 hours.
What is going on? Please help! I am on the usual crunch deadline... and this is driving me NUTS!Better post more about your system...
Post the exact versions of:
OS
FCP
QuickTime
system specs
Scratch disk configuration... is it local? etc.?
Also post the exact format you've captured and are working with.
Also let me know how you got to the versions of OS and FCP... did you perform a clean installation lately? i.e., rebuilt your startup disk from the ground up? One thing that can cause havoc is "upgrading" instead of "erase and install" of a new OS or version of studio...
The odd thing is that it spins but renders it OK anyway? weird indeed, never seen this, but sure want to find out why!

Nokia Emails Driving me round the bend!!!!!!!!!!!!...
This all seemed to start when I bought that last piece of inferior quality crud they laughingly called a phone from Nokia direct.
The lady who served me was exceptionally good. Couldn't have asked for a nicer buying experience!
Absolutely everything since has been garbage, appart from the rescue advice I got from this forum during my bricking incident.
First, the "express delivery" just, errrr wasn't!
The phone was junked within days.
The call handling service was abismal.
The "we'll just replace it if" sales pitch didn't happen.
The repair center I was sent to errr,,,,,,couldn't!
In fact the whole experience almost had me switching to another brand. Only my fancy for an N900 stopped me..... UNTIL NOW!
some time ago I received an emailed news letter from Nokia.
It was garbage but it did have a well designed unsubscribe link so I unsub'd. I received an Unsub confirmation then the next day I received another news letter.

It was garbage but..... hang on, I'm starting to see a pattern emerging here.
It would appear that each news letter is numbered and when you Unsub you only do it from that particular numbered newsletter at which point Nokia immediately generates a new one with a different number.
Has anyone else had this bother?
The unsubscribe link obviously doesn't work and neither does contacting Nokia.
Can anyone tell me how else to stop Nokia sending me this rubbish other than reporting them to the relevant authorities for sending bulk SPAM?Just report them and save yourself the hassle - that will get a quick response if you live in the USA and many other places I am sure.

The ipad safari on facebook will echo characters on the search feature. Please fix this STUPID error! At the least, investigate it and come to a suitable response. Stupid things like this are making me lose faith and interest in Apple products.
This is a user Forum, No one here works for Apple.
If you can be a bit more clear with what your problem is, maybe someone here can help you find a solution. -
safari slow work and stupid-update now
Could you please specify what exactly do you mean by slow work? If loading pages takes forever try this:
Try to reset Safari settings:
1.Open Safari
2. Click on Safari menu at the top(to the right from the Apple logo)
3. Select preferences/privacy tab
4. Click on Remove all website data
5. Close Safari.
Delete Safari cache files:
1. Click on finder
2. Look for GO menu at the top
3. click on GO and hold down the option key. This will show user library folder.
4. Click on Library and look for Caches folder
5. In caches folder open com.apple.Safari folder
6. Move to trash Cache.db file.
This should solve the issue. If it will not help try to turn off Safari extentions
1.Open Safari
2. Click on Safari menu at the top(to the right from the Apple logo)
3. Select preferences
4. Find extentions tab
5. Turn off all the extentions
6. Relauch Safari
Hope this will help -
Using Safari on apple's website video's I get missing plug-in.
The video's are the promotional ones Apple has posted on the new iPad or iPhone. I have the lastest versions of Lion, and Safari. I can also run the same video's using Firefox. It appears something got deleted or corrupted. I not sure if I should downoad and re-install Lion or Safari or if I can recover just the plug-in's.
With some versions of Safari. Apple website videos would not work it you had the third-party player DivX. installed.

Safari will no longer open. It just goes back to my desktop. When I right click on the safari icon in my dashboard it says it is open. I was using firefox until I could find a fix for safari. I made the mistake of changing my default search to firebox later for convenience and now I can't open my system preference or many safari or apple linked files. Some of my emails from trusted sites won't open and does the same thing.
I upgraded my original system from 10.4.11 to I believe 10.6. something about a year or so ago. I thought about re installing my safari app but when I go to open anything connected to safari my screen goes back to the desktop. I cant open any files that I have on my desktop that I set up through safari, like my banking program. Prior to changing system preference to safari default I was able to open those files and now I can't get into change it back. Can you guide me through this?
Thanks,
BettyTry running the 10.6.8 combo update.
10.6.8 Combo Updater
System Preferences or Safari Preferences?
Do a backup.
Quit the application.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Restart the computer, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one. -
I have purchased a new iMac, with Safari 5.0.5, but it won't retain bookmarks, I thought I can download a new Safari from Apple. So I deleted Safari from the application folder.
Then I tried to download Safari from Firefox but after finish download, what I got was a dmg file, with a pkg icon (an opened box) and it can't be installed. Same with Google Chrome.
My question is: how can I download Safari? And will it retain bookmarks?Reinstall Safari from the Optional Installs.pkg on your Mac install disc that came with your iMac. Or in your case, you use Pacifist to extract the Safari app from the .dmg file.
To bookmark a webpage:
Go to the webpage you want to bookmark. If you use tabs, you can open multiple webpages in tabs to bookmark them as a collection.
Choose Bookmarks > Add Bookmark, or Bookmarks > “Add Bookmarks for These Tabs.”
Type a name for the bookmark or collection in the dialog that appears.
Specify where you want to keep the bookmark or collection. You can add it to the bookmarks bar, the Bookmarks menu, or to a collection if you have created any.
Click Add.
To add a bookmark quickly, click the Add button in the toolbar, or drag the webpage’s icon from the address field to the bookmarks bar.
To see your bookmarks, choose Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks.
In the future, rather then deleting an app, come here and ask for help first. More times then not, you will save yourself time and trouble. -

Could you play a live stream from safari to apple tv without going through itunes?
could you play a live stream from safari to apple tv without going through itunes?
There is no way to stream Safari content, with or without iTunes, to your AppleTV.
The only way would be to use a mirroring feature given that you have an AppleTV 2nd gen or newer and a 2011 or newer MBP running mountain lion.
If not, some third party software like AirParrot can also gives you way to mirror your MBP display on the TV. -
How can I set back phone settings to go from a searched location in safari to apple maps rather than google directions?
Click Here enter destinations, link to page in iWeb or iFrame it by clicking on "Link to Page" from Google map. This may seem ironic but if you are looking for something the best way to find it is by searching Google. For instance Googling "google map directions" will send you to referenced page. for a sub-$20 app I find it hard to believe you find it hard to believe Apple hasn't integrated this feature into the software.
Hope that helps! -
About MS silverlight! Went to Bing-maps. Got a message saying that I needed a newer version of Silverlight. Can't find silverlight on my McBook Pro. Does it come loaded on OS X, Safari, any Apple software? I do not recall ever installing it? Should I follow the pop-up warningg and download it?
Thanks John Galt,
I will do that. Hopfully there will be not compatibility issues. A-NmN.
