Safari download for mac.

my internet has been insane lately. so i decide to wipe out my browsers and re downlad them incase its just a corrupted safari. so i trash safari and keep firefox. all is well untill i go to the apple website and find now safari download for mac. am i crazy? there are 2 otions for windows users and no mac. uhhhhhhhhhhh.....help?!?!

The reason for the lack of a download is mainly due to WebKit. This is the part of OS X that knows how to render a webpage and is used by Safari, Dashboard, Help Viewer, Mail.app etc.
Each point release of OS X tends to update WebKit and the versions of applications that work with it. So, Apple would have to provide downloads for every variation of Safari that has been released - going back to 10.3 that's probably getting on for 15 different versions. As you can imagine this is just as likely to lead to people trying to install the wrong versions for their systems.
The same applies to other OS X applications - Mail, iCal, iChat, etc. None of these are available for individual download in the case of accidental deletion.
The one exception to this that is made is that you can reinstall certain applications from the installation DVD, as mentioned in [this article|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301229].
For Windows, life is a bit simpler as WebKit is delivered with the Safari application (since there are no dependent applications on Windows that use it).

  • Re:  Safari Download for Mac OS9

    Does anyone know if there is a Safari download available for Mac OS9 and if so, where can I find it? I'm currently using IE 5.1 and need an upgrade.
    Thanks.

    Hi Ellen;
    Safari was only released for OS X 10.2 or newer. If makes use of features that only became available at that level of the operating system. I don't believe anyone has ever even tried to make it avaiable for OS 9.
    Why do you need Safari?
    If you need is great enough, you might have to migrate to OS X.

    Is this happing because the external is formatted to PC and not mac?
    Yes that is correct.
    Will I need to get a mac external hard drive if I wish to continue to save my documents like this?
    If you no longer use a PC you could format this drive for the Mac. However be aware that formatting a drive will erase all the data on it. So you would need someplace to copy the data off this drive to while you did the re-format and then you could copy the data back.
    You could get another drive, format it for the Mac and copy the data to it. Then re-format the original drive and use it as a backup drive. Always good to have backups.
    Post back with the drive type and size of the current drive, if you are doing backups now and how and if you still need to access this drive from a PC.
    regards

    I have a Samsung Chromebook; which do I download -- for Mac or Windows?

    From what I have read, you can use neither of those option.  Google Chrome OS is a completely different animal and you would need to check on the chrome website for apps that are available for use with it.

  • I bought the Dreamweaver CS5 for Windows a few years ago. Now I have also a Mac Book pro, where I have to Install the Dreamweaver CS5. I have made the Download for Mac, but I can't Install it. When I push the button, I got an error message.

    CS5 for Windows can only be installed on Windows operating system.
    You would need to purchase CS5 for Mac OS.
    Given that CS5 is now 4 versions back, it's unlikely you'll find a copy.
    You could get DW CC from the Creative Cloud which supports both Win/Mac platforms.

  • Plz Recommend an "Automatic" Torrent Downloader for Mac/OSX Yosemite

    Hello. I was hoping somebody could please recommend an "Automatic" Torrent Downloader for Mac/OSX Yosemite..
    I know that there are a few options out there, but most of them seem to be directed towards TV Shows.. which isn't a problem, but I was hoping for one that could be used for pretty much anything.. like applications, music, movies, TV shows, ****, whatever..
    Basically, something where you could enter a "keyword" or "artist", for example, and have it automatically add whatever new torrents come up in whatever specific parameters you set (so you could basically set a music artist's name, for example, and specify music only, so that it's not downloading every video, image, or whatever that also contains that "keyword")..
    Does something like this exist for Mac/OS X Yosemite? Would really love a recommendations! Thank you!
