Safari 3 Beta Won't Load in Windows

Tried downloading Safari on my Windows computer...won't load everything in the browser including tool bars. Can't even type addresses in to go to websites. Tried restarting my system, everything. I heard it wasn't that great for Windows, but I didn't think it would be this bad. I enjoy it on my Mac...hope there's a bug fix soon.

5.1 is buggy, and the Apple Support Software also has to be uninstalled - and downgraded.
Better off with 5.0.x for now.
There are a dozen threads+ about 5.1s issues.
You can also expect some extensions and plug-ins could also be trouble.
And manually clean out every sub folder in AppData with Safari (prefs, history, web, etc) when moving to a new version. Same with Firefox 5/6/etc
I'd make sure to use CCleaner 3.09 and make sure that cleans Safari.

  • Safari 5 won't load on Windows 7

    Hi,
    I've recently upgraded my Safari to Safari 5 and it does not load, just shows the spinning sign. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, placing of Apple Application Support files into Safari folder, but still no sign of improvement. Do advise, as I prefer to use Safari over other browsers.
    My Laptop's specs is as follows:
    Windows 7 professional
    Service Pack 1
    64-bit OS
    ATI mobility radeon HD 530v
    Thanks.
    Cheers,
    Kai Lin

    That's promising. If it's systemwide, then we won't be touching settings or pref files (they tend to produce user-account-specific problems), and so we won't be endangering any bookmarks.
    I'm inclined to first try uninstalling and reinstalling both Apple Application Support and Safari, taking a few other explicit precautions along the way. For the technique, see the following post. (Although it's for a Safari 4.0.4 reinstall, the basic principle is the same ... you may get a few more error messages nowadays when restarting the PC after uninstalling Apple Application Support, though. Just click through those.)

  • Reader won't load on Windows 7

    We purchased a new computer and are loading all the essentials but have hit a snag...Adobe Reader won't load on Windows 7.  I've searched this forum and tried the suggestions.  I've tried disabling firewalls and virus protection, still same problem.  I'm getting the following message which seems to kill the installation:
    Error 1606: Could not access network location %APPDATA%\ .
    Hitting the retry button doesn't do any good.  I'm trying to load version 9.3.  Any suggestions??
    thanks

  • Edge Code CC won't load, blank window

    I've just downloaded Edge Code via Creative cloud, but when I open up the application the only thing I get is a blank white window titled index.html.
    I cant type in it, I don't get any toolbars or menus or anything. Not even the "about Edge Code"  From the "Edge Code" menu shows anything.
    What can I do?
    I have a 2,6 Ghz Intel Core i7 MacBook Pro Retina
    16 GB RAM (1600 Mhz DDR3)
    NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB
    OS X 10.8.4

    I used Comodo. But I can't remember the steps I'm afraid. Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance.

  • When I start safari it won't load the screen.

    When I go to start safari it won't load.   The address bar lights up about a 1\3rd of the way and then just sits there.  If I restart my computer it will work for a time but eventually refers back to the same behavior.   I have tried reseting safari, I have tried to empty cache without success.   Please help

    Hi..
    Try here >  Safari 5.0.1 or later: Slow or partial webpage loading, or webpage cannot be found
    One of the suggestions at that link is to try OpenDNS. It's very easy to setup.
    Open System Preferences / Preferences then select the Network tab. Click the Advanced tab then click the DNS tab.
    Click +
    Enter these addresses exactly as you see them here.
    208.67.222.222
    Click +
    208.67.220.220
    Then click OK.
    Try Safari.
    If that didn't help, all you have to do is go back to the DNS tab and delete the addresses.
    If nothing above helped, from your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Security tab. Deselect:  Enable plug-ins
    Quit thren relaunch Safari. If that helped, you need to troubleshoot third party add ons >  Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues

  • My safari won't load on windows xp

    A few weeks ago I did some updates now safari won't load.  Ive tried uninstalling and reinstallling multiple times

    In Vista, Safari personal prefs and such are stored in the hidden user folder "AppData" in subfolders Local and Roaming, under "Apple" folders.
    Clean out (move or something) and let Safari start fresh, which should solve the issue.
    Not sure where XP stores files.

  • ITunes Won't Load on Windows 7

    ITunes won't load since the last update.  I tried updating to the new beta version, and it still won't load.  I have lost my contacts on my iPhone and now I can't load iTunes.  I do have another computer running an older version of iTunes and would like to transfer my contacts file to the older computer and then sync my iPhone to that computer.  Can someone please help me with transfering my contacts file to the other computer?  It would be nice if iTunes would load on this computer, the one I use all the time but it seems this problem is not being addressed.  Do Apple personnel only address these problems if you pay them for support, or do they fix their software and help their customers?  Here is the error message I get, and as you can see, iTunes is not loading, just giving the error message:
    The following program has performed an action that requires Windows to temporarily change the color scheme to Windows 7 basic.
    Program: iTunes
    Publisher: Apple Inc.
    Process Identifier (PID): 4652
    Windows will automatically change the color scheme back to Windows Aero when this program or other programs performing similar actions are no longer running.
    iTunes never starts after this message.  I've checked Windows Task Manager to see what programs are running.  I've tried using the iTune comaptibility option but that didn't change anything.  iTunes has always worked, now nothing.  Nothing happens when I plug in my iPhone, or when I start iTunes.  I just want my contacts, that's all!!!  I had always thought I was safe because I always backed up my phone -- boy was i wrong. 

    It doesn't do anything, and QuickTime doesn't do anything either.
    many thanks. In recent times, the error-message-free launch failures of both iTunes and QuickTime have often been indicating that some application (other than QuickTime itself) has dropped old QuickTime componentry in your system files.
    So just in case we'll go looking for older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
    First we'll need to change some view settings.
    In your Start menu, open Computer.
    In your Organise menu, select Folder Options.
    In the View tab, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and Hide extensions for known file types is unchecked.
    Click OK.
    Now in Computer, open your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you have your operating system installed on).
    Open the "Windows" folder.
    Open the "System32" folder.
    What files and folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the title? (In a standard installation of Quicktime you should be seeing precisely two files... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

  • Safari 6 won't load youtube

    All the software are up to date
    I have tried reset safari, open in 32 bit mode, but nothing works.
    It's not the video won't load, but the site.
    Nothing happens after I press enter.
    I have tried other browsers, and youtube works just fine.
    Any idea how to fix this.

    1.Are Plug-ins Enabled?
        Enable Plug-ins
        Safari > Preferences > Security
        Web Content:
        Check the box for Enable Plug-ins.
    2. Check  whether you are currently  in  YouTube HTML 5 trial.

  • ITunes won't load on Windows 7 after the last update

    iTunes won't load on my Windows 7 machine after the last update. There is no error, but the window opens and says "Checking iTunes library" for a while, and then pops up iTunes. When it comes up, I can see it but it won't load or let me interact with it. The window I can see is my podcast library and it suggests it's accessing the iTunes Store. Right clicking, alt-tabbing seem to have no effect, and I can only shut it down in Task Manager. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling with no luck (...twice). Any other ideas?

    Hello Aristoph,
    After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice concerning iTunes for Windows issues. If you follow the directions in order it may help:

  • Safari pages won't load since Mavericks upgrade

    Installed Mavericks a few days ago on my iMac and some really annoying bugs have been introduced to Mail (7.3) and Safari (7.0.6). I can't automatically add multiple addresses to emails anymore using the space bar; I have to manually type out certain addresses, add commas, etc. Certain webpages, including youtube and google, won't load on Safari. Chat support had me repair permissions with disk utility, clear cookies and reset safari, but none worked. It was also suggested that I do an SMC reset, a PRAM reset, and a safe reboot. I haven't done any of these, basically because I'm nervous about introducing any more wonkiness that I can't undo. I've been reading about similar problems with Mavericks for months now (I only upgraded because I needed it for Final Cut) , but I never see any solutions. Can anyone help me???  Thanks.

    Go step by step and test.
    1. Power cycle
         Power off the router. Unplug it from the wall. Wait a while.
         Plug it back to the wall. Power the router on. Wait until all the lights are lit properly.
         It will take a   while.
         Restart the computer.
         Start up in Safe Mode

  • Safari - Pages won't load

    Hi. I hope someone can help me
    There are two websites that my sister visits frequently on my eMac. She has never had problems before and now the pages won't load. We've tried other sites and aren't having any problems. I've also emptied the cache and reset Safari and it still won't work. We thought that there were problems with the website, but a friend loaded both pages just fine on a different machine.
    Can anyone help?

    Have you tried using masking Safari as another browser to see if the pages the machine is visiting have been instructed not to show content if the browser is not one expected?
    If you go to the Debug menu and select user agent, you can disguise Safari as another borwser. Also, from the Debug menu, you can use the Open page with menu to select the alternative browser you would like to use to open the pages.
    Alternatively, you might contact the owners of the site(s). Also, you might go to the Safari menu and Report Bugs to Apple.

  • Sub-par Safari (Pages won't load, 404 errors, and paritally loaded pages)

    Hey,
    I just upgraded to OS X 10.4.5 (from 10.2.8) and it's a wonderful change of pace! I can't believe I waited this long! I have only one complaint...Safari is TERRIBLE. I have found that when it browses it only partially loads pages, never loads images, all adds "cannot be found - 404 error code (which isn't necessarily a bad thing), and then sometimes the desired pages have different apperances, or won't load at all (again a 404 error code). On a few occasions it has even opened the same page repetedly! I go to apple.com, and it loads. Then I go to zdnet.com, and it loads apple.com (though it displays Zdnet on the title bar and the web address!)
    Can anyone help me out here. I'd love to us the RSS feeds...but with all these bugs I can't even get through a session of use without becoming completely frustrated.
    Thanks!

    I've reset Safari and cleaned up cache using OnyX. Has anyone else experienced this? Any advice would be appreciated.
    Thanks, Greg

    I'm thinking it may be a DNS issue. I cleared my DNS cache using OnyX and my problem went away. OnyX is a free utility and is very useful. You can get it here:
