Safari 5.1 for Windows XP Back Behavior broken

When using tabs, the back button now goes back to previous state for the browser window, not just the selected tab.
For instance, I have the window open to the apple.com web page (no tabs). I then open a Bookmarks Bar folder of bookmarks in tabs. I click a link in a tab to another page. I then want to go back to the proveious page for that tab. However, when I hit the Back arrow in the toolbar, all tabs close and I go back to apple.com. The back arrow is affecting the window state, not the tab state.

Why are there no answers for this since August??!  I just upgraded safari on my work PC from 5.0.5 (which worked fine) to 5.1, and now if I hit the back button, all my tabs close.  That is ridiculous and unacceptable.  Why is there not more outrage about this giant glaring BUG?

  • Safari 4 browser for Windows F11?

    Is there an option to duplicate F11 windows function in Safari 4 browser for Windows? I want ALL the tool bars to hide.

    you can go to the view menu and turn everything off. If you want the tool bar (with back & forward buttons, address bar & google bar), hit Ctrl + L. If you want the menu bar (file, edit, etc.), hit the "alt" button. That should give you the full screen solution while still having access to those navigation elements.

  • I can't view PDF files on Safari 5.1 for windows 7, how do I fix this?

    I like using Safari 5.1 for my web browser at work (I use a windows 7 machine). But the recent update won't let me view PDF files. I have to open up Google Chrome then copy and paste the address into it so I can view the PDF. How do I fix this?

  • Safari not working for windows vista

    everytime i start up safari it just quits unexpectedly and windows just can't seem to find a solution for this problem. wondering whether it's a bug and whether there's any updates for it!
    thanks!

    Hi,
    Welcome to  discussions
    Help others to help you by posting what you have tried to stop the crashing.
    In mac, cleaning up internet clutter has been known to help.
    Cookies, cache, Icons folder etc...
    Enable the debug Menu in Safari that may help, if like Mac there are net files there you can empty.
    To enable the Safari debug menu on Windows
    C:\"Program Files"\Safari\Safari.exe /enableDebugMenu
    See Macosxhints for more details, on how to use the command.
    Ok leave I you to the Window users hope someone can help you get it sorted, albeit i hope something I posted helps.

  • What versions of Safari were released for windows?

    Omniture reports Safari version numbers, but not the OS.
    I need to download older versions of Safari to QA webpages.
    The platform being QA'd is Windows (XP-SP3 & Windows7).
    It seems as if there were more than 2 versions of Safari for Windows.
    I can only find a download for 5.1.7 and 3.1.2 - what about interim versions?

    Hi MIke,
    Are you still facing this issue?
    Have you tried to install latest update patch 11.0.09. Do you have any GPO's for Reader. Have you tried to disable and checked again.

  • Safari 5.1 for Windows not updating to Safari 6?

    My Safari won't update to Safari 6. I cant find it on Apple's website and it has been out for Mountain Lion for a while now, and I REALLY want iCloud tabs and stuff so i can browse the same stuff across all of my devices. Chrome does it, but i hate chrome user interface and prefer Safari.

    Safari 6 for Windows is not available for Windows as it is not released by Apple.
    Safari 5.1.7 is the latest version available for Windows.

  • Safari 5.1 for Windows 7 x64 (Scrolling Problem)

    I know its known to some that scrolling is broken or at least is very flakey with Safari 5.1 on Windows 7.  I have two questions.  First, has anyone found a fix yet? Second, if not, how would I contact Apple specifically about this problem?  Thanks.

    I know it isn't what was asked in the post but it might help if this is the problem you have until they fix this.
    My scroll wouldn't work unless I rolled the wheel real fast. After disabling "Smooth Scrolling" the scrolling worked.
    I hope this helps someone because I was just about to stop using Safari befor I got it to work.

  • ITunes COM API for Windows - iTunes 7.7 broken!

    I use the iTunes COM API for Windows to control iTunes as part of a program which helps users create audiobooks.
    Version 7.7.0.43 of iTunes breaks this software. So far as I can determine, the iTunes.ConvertTracks2 and iTunes.ConvertFiles2 routines are now broken, in that they no longer return a reference to the converted tracks.
    Is this a bug on Apple's part, or is it a fundamental change? The COM API documentation describes the earlier behavior, which makes sense.

    I'm seeing the exact same behaviour in my application calling the COM API from Perl. No track reference can be obtained after ConvertTracks2 completes.
    What's going on?

  • Safari 5.1 for Windows no longer connects to the internet. Anyone else see this?

    I'm typing this from Firefox on the same Windows XP Pro machine which watching Safari in an infinite "connecing to www.apple.com" window. I've been using Safari on this same machine for over three years. Todays Safari update killed it.

    No Woder, Apple broke something wiht this Update. There are too many ppl complaining post update.
    Anyway, M also suffering the same glitch. Have saved the pain of uninstalling-installing of Safari/iTunes(thanks to other fellow sufferers).
    Now, here is the complete picture:
    - PPL said to clear out proxies or something. I did everything, but nomproxy settings are there.
    - Oftenly, when on the preferences of Safari, i get this Error message for webkit2webprocess.exe has some probem. xpcom.dll is missing. Didnt get this msg tonight though.
    - Downloaded WebKit and tried to run as said above. but it prompts as
    Safari.exe - Entry Point Not Found
    The procedure entry point u_strToUpper_4_0 could not be located in the dynamic link library icuuc40.dll.
    OK  
    Now, tell me if i really need to re-install itunes/Safari??

  • Cannot install safari 3.1 for windows

    I downloaded safari 3.1, i installed it, windows (vista)/the programm says it is done but it is nowhere on my pc.
    Anybody else had this too?
    Like to see messages *from the apple support people themselfes*. I find this wrong behaviour of a programm.

    Safari looks nice, once the font fix is applied. But if the Programs and Features Control Panel doesn't list it, it ain't there.
    Normally it would go into "Program Files (x86)" and could be within Apple or AppleComputer.
    If you have other Apple software, under AppData Roaming would be Apple Computer => Safari along with an iTunes folder that holds personal bookmarks, but that only gets created when launched and it imports Favorites and settings from IE.
    AppleData Local has another Apple Computer w/ Safari subfolders for Database, History, URLLists History.
    I run a 'clean ship' and never interfered with startups. I use to worry about 64-bit versions being supported (Apple came out with x64 version finally).
    I would run a chkdsk on your boot drive, then look for how to use and run SFC.

  • Ugly text rendering in Safari 5.03 for windows

    Text renders really ugly and some times unreadable in Safari.
    Not all text but always the text in RSS feeds and the text in this forum.
    It's too bold and looks like it is small text that has been scaled up without adding pixels.
    Anyone else with same problem or anyone with a solution?

    here's what it looks like:

  • Latest Flash Player For Windows 8 x86 - link broken?

    Hi all,
    Is it my imagination or is the download link broken from W8 x86?
    The webpage is here:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2880289
    But when you click on the the link for W8:
    http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=711cb843-123e-4b69-a47c-7bd017da3 0a0
    it redirects to a generic search page.
    Anyone got a working link?
    Cheers,
    Mike

    Yup, I fully understand that those links are on Microsofts website but I was alerting to the fact that this is for an Adobe product, and the links are borked.
    Perhaps I'm naively thinking that someone from Adobe will read this and contact MS (I've already posted on MS forums).
    The unforunate thing is that as its Windows 8, you *can't* install directly from Adobe. It's MS or nothing so the download links from Adobe don't help - but thanks anyway!
