Updating to Safari 3.1.2 but wont work

I have a really old mac and i try to update this safari but it wont work.... it says i dont have the package or something(very new to mac and very frustrated). It was given to me from a friend and am confused.

Hello again,
It sounds as if you may have made the same mistake with Firefox as you did with Safari. Firefox 3 only works with 10.4+. You need Firefox 2.0.0.16 if you wish to use Firefox on Panther 10.3.
Personally, I prefer Camino. The latest version of Camino for Panther 10.3 is 1.6.3 (v1.8.1.16 2008080311) which you can find at Camino 1.6.3.
The developer of Firefox has announced that it will only support Firefox for Panther until December 2008 whereas Camino is still being supported with no announcement of it not being supported past that point.
We will all eventually or rather, most likely, have to upgrade our OS's to 10.4 or 10.5 as web features will gradually not work on these older browsers as time goes on.
*tip: Always wise to first check system requirements first before downloading software.
If you have downloaded correct versions of the software and for any reason it is not opening or quitting upon launch you may have other problems with your system that would need addressing.
hope that helps,

  • I've just had a keyboard firmware update and now my volume control buttons wont work

    i've just had a keyboard firmware update and now my volume control buttons wont work.
    Has anyone else had this problem? if so have they found out how to fix it, or is this an on going issue?

    Hi,
    Your problem has some similarities to this problem that I reported earlier this month that that still arises every few days. I was thinking that my problem was related to some sort of bug in Entourage, but maybe it's something else...

    That's usually because a) you do not have a SIM card in the phone, or b) the phone was hacked to unlock it.

  • Shockwave is installed, but wont work on Chrome

    I installed shockwave (latest version) for Chrome (latest stable build 64-bit) on my imac (10.9.5 Maverick) and it wont work
    I reinstalled, troubleshooted,checked plugins, but it wouldn't work, though it worked perfectly on Safari
    I will not change my browser from Chrome, but i will update to unstable version, downgrade, get Chromium or get 32-bit.

    I am having the same problem, all of a sudden. I have uninstalled and re-installed iTunes several times to no avail. The iTunes set-up goes through the entire process, but when I try to open iTunes, I receive an Error message stating that I need to report it to Microsoft. Again, no problem earlier in the week - problem started yesterday. Any help for me or solution with your issue?

  • Ipod is recognised under my computer but wont work in itunes,

    My ipod worked fine on my old computer i dont think i had the most recent itunes but everything was working fine i had windows XP. Now i have a new laptop with windows 7 and my ipod wont work in itunes, i have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes 9 and even tried itunes 8 but nothing seemed to help the situation, i know its not the cable as it shows under my computer, i have taken all my music off the ipod because it asked to reformat it i have tried that twice, i get the message your ipod needs to be reformatted for windows i click ok and it opens itunes but nothing happens, iv downloaded the 64 bit itunes as it doesnt like the 32 bit one. Iv ran a diagnostic test on my ipod but cant get past the firewire detect and usb detect maybe this is because i dont have itunes installed at the moment, any suggestions please?

    I had the same problem with my iPod classic. I got a new laptop that has windows 7 and downloaded itunes 9. As soon as itunes 9 was downloaded my ipod would not be recognised anymore. I tried everything like reformatting etc and nothing was helping. What I did was downloaded itunes 7 and my ipod was then recognised. Your problem may be that your software on your ipod is not up to date enough to run on itunes 9 (that was the problem with mine) and may also not be up to date enough to run on itunes 8. Try itunes 7 (or if that doesn't work even itunes 6) then once your ipod is recognised go to the summary page on your ipod and update your software to the current version. Once i did this my ipod was recognised on itunes 9 when i plugged it in and worked perfectly. Hope this helps!

  • HT4623 my screen is locked it wont let me do anything tried to reboot alot but wont work help

    my screen is locked or something it wont even let me put my password in i tried to reboot it alot but didnt work help

    Hello Teresa,
    Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPhone.
    I recommend following steps 2-6 for an issue like the one you described:
    If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
    If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on),reset your device.
    If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
    Let charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
    You can find the full article here:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281
    If you get to step 5, I recommend backing up your iPhone before performing the restore:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

  • Ipod touch says its connected to wifi but wont work? Help!

    My ipod Touch 4th gen says its connected to wifi, but then wont work to any app involving wifi. We've had someone check out our Internet and our router and its fine. Every wifi needing device in the house works but not mine. Ive had my ipod for about 5 or 6 months and its never ever done this. it just stated not working yesterday. Thank you for all your help.

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
