This is the third time for me to reinstall safari 4.0.5 on Windows 7/64bit. After the installation safari works properly for few days and then freezes. When you open it if you try to minimize it entire windows freezes. Start doesn't works, task manager doesn't works nothing works, the only option is to restart windows. What to do?

I have Safari on an HP desktop running Windows 7, 64-bit. When I want to clear the history from Safari, the "Reset Top Sites Also" button is always checked. This can cause problems. Any way to have it unchecked all the time?

I tunes 11 freezes under windows 7 64-bit immediately and won´t do anything. Please help

itunes 11 freezes under windows 7 64-bit immediately and won`t do anything. Please help !

The first thing to do is make sure you are using the latest version of iTunes. Look on the Help/Check for updates menu option in iTunes, which will confirm that you have the latest version or enable you to download it.
The effective way to Sync the iPod is to add your songs to iTunes and then connect the iPod to iTunes after you have added your songs.
So if you have been connecting the iPod and then trying to add songs "to the iPod" - don't!
You add the music to iTunes and then sync the iPod with iTunes afterwards.
Next, try connecting the iPod to iTunes, if you get the "duplicate file message", can you post it here (exact wording please)?
Once you have the iPod connected to iTunes, click on the Device that appears on the left of the iTunes window. On the Device/Summary screen, choose (check) Sync only checked songs and videos. Providing the songs still have the check mark on in iTunes (the default when songs are added to iTunes), those songs will Sync with the iPod.
Notice the other options in additiion to Summary. Look on the Podcasts pane for the Sync option (to add Podcasts to your iPod) and also on the Photos pane for options for adding (or not) Photos to your iPod. If you change any of these options, you will need to press the Sync button afterwards for the changes to take effect.
Lastly (for now), you can only Sync the iPod with one iTunes library. If you try and Sync it with a second library on your computer, or with iTunes on another computer, all your previous songs etc will be removed and replaced with the new library.
A thought... could the duplicate file message be because you have two iTunes libraries on your machine?

Random hard freezing issues, Windows 8 64-bit on Macbook Pro (Late 2008)

Hi,
I recently upgraded to OS X 10.8.3 and got a hold on copy of Windows 8 64-bit. As I'm running on my old trustworthy 15 inch Macbook Pro (Late 2008), my hardware is officially unsupported. Over the years I've had XP, Vista, Win7 32-bit and 64-bit running running on the same machine, and thought I'd give Win8 a chance.
To be able to install Win8 on my unsupported hardware, I tricked the Bootcamp assistant that I was going to install Win7, and after the reboot and start of the Win7 installation, I exited the installer, rebooted, switched DVD to Win8 and did the installation from there. So far so good. For installing the Bootcamp drivers, I followed the instructions in https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4894920?tstart=90.
Now, the machine runs just fine with Windows 8, and I've installed some basic third party applications (Firefox, Spotify, Steam). However, I get completely random hard freezes on the machine (sound looping, no other activity whatsoever) during normal use. These can occur 20 minutes after start, or 3-4 hours in. The freezing behavior is very much similar to how my model can behave under overheating conditions (which mostly have occured in past Windows versions while gaming), however overheating doesn't seem to be the issue here (based on simple palpation ).
Have anyone experienced a similar problem, or know something about it? My current idea is that some weird things are going on with the Bootcamp drivers, so unless anyone comes up with a suggestion I might try doing a rollback to the point before I installed the drivers to see what I can make of it.
Thanks!

Had a few similar short system freezes, after installing Windows 8 x64 on 13” MacBook Pro Mid-2010 with BootCamp 5.0.5033.
There is a suggestion that DisableDynamicTick may fix the problem: https://discussions.apple.com/message/21565295#21565295. There were similar topics at Microsoft forums: 1, 2, 3. It was said “that this will likely reduce system battery life, so it should be undone when you update your Windows build or if it doesn't resolve your issue”, and that “this problem is resolved in the release versions of Windows 8”.
Another possibility is that there is indeed a buggy driver, within BootCamp 5.0.5033, or a 3rd party, like a wireless network driver in the following case http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_8-performance/system-fr eeze-randomly-after-installing-windows-8/49488183-26cf-4389-af21-a85dc366c99a?pa ge=2#LastReply.
The problem has been noticeable on my MacBook, but not annoying enough yet to spend time troubleshooting. If you find a robust solution, using the links above or other method, it would be interesting to know.

ITunes Store causing whole program to freeze on Windows 7 (64-bit)

So I installed iTunes 10.5 for Windows 7 (64-bit) and cannot open it up properly: the iTunes Store makes the entire program freeze up. I've cleared the DNS cache, closed my firewall, changed proxy settings, and iTunes it still unusable. What am I missing exactly? This is enough to tear the hair out of my head...

I can get it running if I run it in XP Mode, but I still don't have access to the Store...nobody has any ideas?

Since upgrading to 11.1 my Itunes freezes in Windows 7 64 bit what can I do to fix this? I have uninstalled and reinstalled and tried a new user account and tried changing my settings

Since upgrading to 11.1 ITunes keeps freezing, I have windows 7 64 bit. I have tried opening in safe mode and creating a new user, I have also uninstalled and reinstalled. What can I do to fix this? Its very frustrating.

VPN Client 5.0.07.0440 freezes in Windows 7 64 bit

I have the latest version of the VPN client isntalled. I've re-installed it several times. When I start the program - it will freeze, and be come very slow. Like usually 2-3 minutes per click. It will eventually connect, but the application, is almost unresponsive most of the time.
I'm on Windows 7, 64 bit (duo core)
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Jeff

Hello Gentlemen,
We do support the IPsec client on W7 64 bit.
http://www.cisco.com/cisco/software/release.html?mdfid=281940730&catid=268438162&os=Windows&softwareid=282364316&release=5.0.07.0440&rellifecycle=&relind=AVAILABLE&reltype=all
On the other hand, I have noticed an interesting behaviour during the installation process, specially on computers upgraded to 64 bit from 32 bit.
When you install the Client, the default folder points to "Program Files (x86)" instead of "Program Files", when you re-install it, please make sure to define the "Program Files" folder as the correct folder, once done, reboot the computer and test it out.
BTW, you might want to run Ccleaner (registry cleaner) in order to clean up the system prior to re-installing the client.
Please give it a try and let me know how it goes.
Thanks in advance.

Downloaded safari 5.0.3 to my Windows 7 64 bit operating system. Now screen shows all money amounts in Euros instead of US dollars. How to correct?

I downloaded Safari browser 5.0.3 to my Windows 7 operating system (64 bit) on a desktop computer and now when I look at webpages that show money amounts (dollars and cents) they are all written in Euros instead of american currency. How to correct?

Rysz wrote:
So you are suggesting that Safari does an on-the-go conversion of currency? I don't think so. Safari just displays whatever is coded on the web site.
Localization (Windows settings) might be the culprit, as the user is re-directed to a web-site created for that region. It's also possible, that a foreign web site was chosen or suggested by Google.
Well he states that is all webpages that show any kind of currency. He can go to Control Panel> Region Options> Region & Language Configuration (something like that).
The onthe thing that makes me think that this could be a Safari issue more than a regional issue is that the OP stated that it downloaded Safari 5.0.3, which is not the latest version. This implies to some extent that the installer that was downloaded from a source other than Apple as it is no longer available in Apple's Website (the latest Safari is 5.1.4 which was released today), and there's no certainty on the region from where that Safari 5.0.3 installer was uploaded from which could have very well be a user in Europe; but that's speculation at this point.
Let's see how the issue works out for the OP and then move forward with other possible suggestions

Windows 7 64 bit installation freeze because of disk

Problem is a freeze during Windows 7 64 bit installation loading disk.sys when booting in UEFI mode.
According to Intel online support "Windows 7 Setup has a problem detecting the Toshiba SSD" (https://communities.intel.com/message/206067)

P67A-C43 / Windows 7 64-bit freezes when idle or during low activity

Greetings,
I've seen a few similar topics regarding freezes when idle or near-idle, but the troubleshooting steps I've tried don't seem to work. My P67A-C43 with an Intel 2500K Core i5 is not overclocked. It is repeatedly freezing in Windows 7 64-bit. It also did this when I was running Vista 64-bit. I also have Mac OS X Lion on this PC, and I never get freezes under OS X. This appears to be something related to how Windows interacts with idling or lower-power states. But I can't figure out what.
I have tried this with windows on a mechanical HDD and with the current SSD - no change.
I have tried running just one RAM module at a time - they both individually exhibit the behavior.
I have tried switching graphics cards from a GeForce 6500 GT to the current Radeon HD 6850 - no change.
I have tried switching power supplies from an Inland Gold 500W to the current OCZ 650W - no change.
I have tried switching from Intel SVID to APS mode stepping - no change.
I have tried switching C-States off - the system didn't freeze, but it got VERY hot under no load. Without C-states turned on, the CPU temperatures quickly reach 95C to 98C.
I've got the latest BIOS, the latest drivers, and everything else I can think of. Any more ideas?

WOW do I feel silly.
I opened the case to take a good look at the processor cooling, and found that the fan/heatsink assembly was not snapped in on one of the posts. The pre-applied thermal paste was only flattened on one side of the copper contacts for the heatsink.
I re-attached and snapped it all back in, and now my BIOS temperature reading is about 55C, whether C-State is on or off. In Windows without much of a load, it was 40-45C with C-States off, and 33-45C with C-States on.
What I've learned:
- double check your connections
- C-States is an amazingly effective system
- Intel makes some darn tough chips. They'll work (sort of) even if you install them wrong.
I'm still not sure if the freezing is fixed - I don't know how long I've been running without a proper heat sink. I'll leave it idling overnight (It's 23:30 here now), and see if it freezes.
Thanks for the help, guys. This is a nice forum.

Safari for Windows 7 64-bit just freezes when I start it?

I downloaded the lastest version of Safari today, and upon opening it, it just freezes, and reports (Not Responding) via the window.
I'm running Windows 7 64-bit Ultimate SP1. I have resinstalled, uninstalled, and repaired the installation before, to no avail. Any ideas on how to fix this issue?

The user-account-specific nature of the trouble suggests problems with the Safari settings and preference files in the Home account. (There's a different set of those in each different Windows user account.)
The "So-much-for-subtlety" instructions from the following post may be of assistance:
Re: Safari launches but hides window
Unfortunately, this will lose all your Top Sites, History, Bookmarks, passwords, etc. However, in my last post in that topic is a method for getting your BookMarks and Top Sites back that seems to work for most folks.

After updating on my mac - I cannot open various password protected pages - like my WordPress site. I can open them from Safari and from Firefox on my windows pc.

after updating firefox , it won't allow input of password on various sites - like my wordpress admin page. I can access this page from safari and from firefox on my windows pc.

I cannot open password protected WordPress pages using Firefox. They open using IE
If I remove the password protection the page opens correctly in FF.
I have cleared the FF cache and cookies several times, No change
I have modified the wp-pass.php file several suggested ways related to the referrer and nothing solves the issue.
I tried:
wp_safe_redirect(wp_get_referer());
to
wp_safe_redirect(wp_get_referer() . '?');
NO GOOD
I tried:<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki>$location = wp_get_referer();
if ( $location == '' )
$location = './';
wp_redirect($location, $status = 302);
</nowiki></pre>
NO GOOD
I have upgraded WordPress to 3.3.1. Still NO GOOD
I have deactivated, and also removed all plug-ins. Still NO GOOD.
Anyone have any ideas?
Why just an FF issue?
IE no problems

Audio tag not working in safari 5.1.7 browser on windows 7 machine

Hi,
I have a query. I need to play mp3 sound in the safari 5.1.7 browser on windows 7 machine using javascript code.
I have tried all the three tags(<audio> <embed> and <object>) for playing mp3 audio in the javascript function. But I am not able to play sound. I also doubt whether there is a change needs to be done in safari browser settings. Can anyone please guide me on playing mp3 sound.
function playSound() {
    soundURL = "LoginSound.mp3";
    <audio autoplay=\"true\" ><source src=\""+soundURL+"\" type=\"audio/mpeg\"></audio>
    <embed id=emb1 src='"+soundURL+"' hidden=true autostart=true loop=false>
    <object data='"+soundURL+"' type='audio' src='"+soundURL+"' autoplay=true autostart=true>

Remote Desktop Connection freezes Windows 7 64-bit

At home, I just upgraded from a Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit desktop to a new Dell with Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit OS. Remote Desktop Connection from my old home PC to my work PC worked great for years even after upgrading both to Windows 7 Ultimate. Now everytime I try to use Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) to connect into my work PC (with Windows Ultimate 7 32-bit) the RDC window will freeze after a new seconds of use. If I wait approx 3 minutes the RDC window will unfreeze for a few seconds before freezing again. If I minimize the RDC window on my home PC, I can continue to work because it's only the RDC window that is frozen. Here is everything I've tried already that has not helped:
1. Trying reducing the home PC screen resolution
2. Downloaded the latest 64-bit driver from NVIDIA for the GTX 260 graphics card
3. Taken my home PC to work to test behind the company's firewall--doesn't help
4. Disabled Window Auto Tuning (suggestion from this website)
5. Called Dell support--they tried for about an hour to help but couldn't; thier suggestion was to order Windows 7 32-bit version OS and install it
6. Tried running the 32-bit version of mstsc.exe - no help
7. Using MSCOMFIG, disabled all Startup items - no help
I have another home PC running Windows XP, it works perfectly using RDC to connect to my work PC. Also, I have no problem at all using RDC from my work PC back into my home PC (the other direction).
Here may be a clue: if I start up my new Dell Windows 64-bit OS in Safe Mode, the RDC session does not freeze.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Hi,
Since it works in Safe Mode, I suspect this should be related to some conflicts, please try the methods in the following Knowledge Base article to have a check:
How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
In addition, please also ensure the NIC drivers on all of the computers are up-to-date.
Hope this helps. Thanks.

Safari 5.1.5 on Windows 7 64-bit: WebKit crashes.

Hello everyone.
I have a Safari 5.1.5 installed on Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. The last version of Safari which really worked well on my PC was, ironically, Safari 4 Beta. It was stable, it wasn't crashing and it was a pleasure to use it. ;D Ever since Safari 4, stable version, I've had many problems w/ it. 4, in any possible version, was unusable on my PC. 5 is much better when it comes to reliability. The only problem - or rather, two problems - lies within the fact that from time to time [quite possibly every couple of hours or so] I get an information abt WebKit Engine's crash. It first manifests itself by website turning black, then every opened tab's content gets white and I get a crash report. I then have to click on every tab, the website refreshes itself and everything is fine until the next crash. Also, instead of appearing as 1 window, Safari on my system shows every opened tab as a group of separate windows within the taskbar.
I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling, repairing and other stuff but nothing seems to be working. ;( I really hate it because Safari is quite possibly my favourite web browser and am not exactly feeling the love right now.
Thanks in advance for the help,
Michał
