Safari has gone away. Forever?

Ok, so I was having issues with my safari and I deleted it all. Now I am trying to reinstall safari from my disc and nothing happens. The download completes successfully but safari does not appear anywhere on the computer. Anywhere! I don't know what to do.
I am on my iPad, I have no way to get on a browser, safari was my only one.

Assuming you're on 10.5.8 and that the version you trashed was 5.0.2 -
this command in terminal will download the correct Safari install package to your Home folder
curl -O http://appldnld.apple.com/Safari5/061-8789.20100907.Pre3E/Safari5.0.2Leopard.dmg
You need to open Terminal from Applications/Utilities/ and paste the above in there, then press enter.
It'll take a while, you'll see scary-looking code that just tells you how the download's going, and when it's done - you'll find the install pkg in the Home folder of your account.
Safari crashed before, so of course it may again - if so, you can get firefox the same way.

  • Safari has gone very slow

    Hi there
    I have an iPod touch and have found that safari has gone really slow. It takes ages to load the page and zoom in and out also scrolling up and down. It al started when I let my kids aged 11 and 9 used it.  They where not as careful as me when using it but I was supervising and they did not drop it or anything. I have rebooted it then reset it to factory settings in iTunes. I have taken off the apps that they put on there but it made no difference. It has been fine since ios 4 update came out so it had nothing to do with that. I always thought that safari was quite quick but now its unusable on some sites, manly sites with moving images. It is like there is not enough ram any more. I know its not the modem as the two computers that i have are just the same, pretty good and there both using safari. Its strange as my mobile phone with android did the same thing about 6 months ago and nether improved. The phone does it on any wifi and mobile network, so again it cant be the modem. Is there any thing I can do with the ipod to speed safari up, or is that it I cant use safari any more and use opera instead?
    Thanks for any help

    thanks both for the repliy
    I now its not the network as its fine with everything else. Also I have already tried restoring the ipod with itunes and that didn't make any difference. I have now reset it like you said but that didn't work. Not sure what to do now maybe safari just want work like it use to. I forgot to say it is a second gen ipod touch so it is quite old now.
    Any more help I would be very thankful for.

  • Since the latest apple update, voice navigation has gone away.  Tried the Airplane mode fix, which worked, but now my bluetooth won't work in my vehicle.  What's up?

    Well Bababooey if you're comparing yourself to a Apple Genius Bar then you should already know my answer, your snarky remark get a snarky reply.  Why would I go to a salesperson to fix my computer problem when I can go directly go to the source itself.  I used to sell Apple computers over 8 years ago and was apple certified before the Genius bar existed. If I am to go about fixing an issue I can't fix on my own I will go to the source itself meaning Apple's programmers and developers - being UI UX Developer myself I know they should have QA'd all platforms and troubleshooted any arising issues. 
    This was also the first time in the 20 years I've been using a Mac that I even attempted to go on this forum which i thought would put me in connection with a certified Apple representative.  This turned out to be a complete waste of time just being a public forum with no Apple employee involved.  I was hoping to find a quick fix but in turn I was only frustrated with stupid responses such as yours that were in no way an answer to my original question. 
    BTW I fixed the issue on my own and without your help or Apples help. I'm glad if all forums point here regarding this issue because I now have the answer. The answer I was looking for from someone earlier was as simple as this {Download Maverick and reinstall the platform - it will take an hour to do but afterward 10.9.2 was installed and my computer is now able to shutdown and restart without having to do a hard boot.}  No more software update bar at top and no problems with my drive which I told both you and Grant - I know my computer better than you and I've probably been using them longer than you. 
    So again Babowa you were so wrong...... and I am right.
    Again anyone having the same problem, I suggest reinstalling Maverick and you'll be suprised 10.9.2 will work fine.

  • The bassist has gone away...

    Hello.
    The bassist has gone away from the songs when i put music on my shuffle !!!.
    Does someone knows if we'll be able to modificate someday factory EQ through iTunes to hear the bassman ?
    Regards and Merry Christmas.
    Luis.

    It's not possible to modify the EQ settings in the iPod.
    Apple has not made any announcements regarding this feature and if it will ever change.

  • Safari has gone after 4.2 to 4.3 update

    After the las update to get IOS 4.3, ther is a big hole in the bottom task bar. I need some minutes guess what was missing, I'm so used to seen this icons that I don't remember what they do.
    Looking on iPhone pubs I've seen that Safari has disapeared. I tried an other sync that is very very very very long, because of optimisation of 1616 photos, this was not done yesterday ? Now iTunes is copying 1609 photos from Mac to iPhone !
    I think that something was missed yesterday after the update, perhaps why Safari has disapeared.
    In fact sync takes more than 40 minutes today, yesterday, it takes only 15 minutes.
    After this new sync, Safari is not on my screen.
    What can I do ?

    You give me the good solution, restrictions was enabled for Safari
    It's now ok

  • Browsing in Safari has gone slow, Chrome 5 is super fast, how do I fix it?

    Hi everyone,
    I've been experiencing slow browsing speeds in Safari for some time now, and I've always thought that it was my ISP. Eventually I got used to it and I stopped worrying about it. Today I downloaded Chrome 5 out of curiosity and I was blown away! I mean, this thing is so instant on almost every page! Then I remembered that Safari used to be somewhat like that some long time ago...
    So what on earth is going on, how do I fix it? I don't want to have to rely on Chrome because that doesn't fix iTunes, which is equally slow when browsing the iTunes store. When I mean slow, I don't mean that it is unusable like some other people have reported. It's maybe x5 times slower than Chrome. I.e., pages don't just appear instantly, but I can instead see the individual images and text that comprise them taking their time to load. Some benchmarking in the developer tools shows that the delay is attributed to both longer latency times per resource, and at times actual loading times too. Benchmarking a complex page reveals that it needs 1.2sec in Chrome 5, and almost 5sec in Safari 5 on my computer. So there is certainly something weird going on there.
    I have tried a few things that have been suggested to others, but none worked. Also, the DNS in my preferences points to the router within my intranet, not to some bizarre external site (i.e., 192.168.0.1). I am connected to the router with a cable. The problem first appeared long time ago when I was working on a MacBook Pro. The problem persist till today on my iMac 27", which came fresh with OS X 10.6.3 - I did use the migration wizard though to transfer all my stuff from my Mac Book Pro to the new iMac. I can verify that the problem persists even with Safari 5, without any plugins added to it.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Dimitris

    I haven't installed any plugins as far as I can remember. I tried looking for menu "HOME > Library > Plugins" in Safari, but could not locate it. Perhaps it is a path in the file system? In that case, I don't have a Plugins subfolder (i.e., I only have <home folder>/Library/).
    A also just tried OpenDNS out of curiosity, and there was no improvement. Chrome however became just slightly slower. Also, I would like to alert other members of the forum that may read this thread, that openDNS makes money by selling their browsing preferences to advertising agencies (refer to their small print for more details). I also tried Google's similar service (http://www.chromeplugins.org/google/chrome-talk/google-dns-8877.html) which is supposed to respect privacy (again, according to their terms and conditions), however that still did not improve the situation. Again, Chrome was just slightly slower. At the least, I was very pleasantly surprised to find out that my ISP offers really fast DNS resolution

  • Safari has gone !!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I was on the web when safari suddenley closed down,now it has disapeared from the tool bar and applications ? Where can i download it from,i have tried downloading a few times from apple but it will not open ?
    Mark.

    By, the "toolbar" I guess you mean the Dock?
    Applications do not simply self-destruct or self-delete so it may have (somehow) been moved if you are sure it is not in the Applications folder (its proper location).
    Try a Spotlight (or Finder) search. Finder may actually be simpler as you can specify that you are searching for an application.
    As to downloading, that does not seem to be available for download, so you would have to extract it from the installation disk (then go for any updates). Use a utility like Pacifist (available via Versiontracker that will do this task.
    However, if somehow this has been lost, there may be some underlying problems and I would suggest a check of the system and a repair of the disk, before going much further.

  • Safari has gone wonky.

    Safari won't open many websites, including Gmail and Yahoo. All I get is a white screen with no error message. I have emptied the cache, restarted Safari, etc. This started the day before yesterday. Suggestions?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • I had an alert that reminded me to add attachment when the word attachment was included in the message text. That alert has gone away. How do I renew?

    I include in my message to recipient that I'm attaching something, then I forget to attach. There was an alert that reminded me to add the attachment, but it has disappeared. How do I get it back?

    From the Menu Bar select '''Tools-Options-Composition-General'''
    Check the box to check for missing attachments.
    No menu bar? Press the alt key.

  • Auto log-in has gone away

    Aloha.
    I am up and running with most current versions of Safari in Lion. There are a variety of sites I visit, some free, some subscribed, which require log-in. Prior to moving to Lion/Safari 5.1, I could return to these sites, and I would auto log-in. Now, I have to present my credentials every time. Any idea why they did this?

    Quit Safari.
    Open Keychain Access   /Applications / Utilites
    Select Passwords on the left.
    Delete the keychains for the sites you have problems logging in.
    Relaunch Safari. Make sure User names and passwords is selected in Safari / Preferences - Autofill.
    Navigate to a site, enter your login data, click Yes when prompted. That should create a new keychain for you.
    If not, click Keychain First Aid from the Keychain Access menu bar. That may help also.

  • Safari has gone dark

    safari is dark.  Can't do anything.  Everything else is working fine.

    Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History)
    If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
