Want to re-install Safari 4

I want to re-install Safari 4 but when I try to re-install it, it says: "You cannot install Safari Public Beta on this volume. This update requires Mac OS X 10.5.7 or newer."
not sure what's going on here.

Hi,
Which version of Mac OS X are you running? And which version of Safari 4 beta do you currently have installed? The latest version of Safari 4 beta (x528.17) requires OS X 10.5.7 or 10.4.11. Be sure you've downloaded the right installer for your OS X version. There are separate installers for Leopard and Tiger.

HI ..
The only way to reinstall OS X on a Mac already running v10.9 is to use OS X Recovery.
Starrtup your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys.
From there you should be able to access the built in utilities to repair the startup disk and reinstall OS X.
Please read > OS X Recovery

I have just installed Snow Leopard 10.6.3 and want to update my Safari 4.0.4 to the latest version. However, the latest Safari version needs at least Snow Leopard 10.6.8. What can I do?

Be sure to Restart your Mac after the Install.

Deleted Safari, want to re-install

It appears that Safari has been deleted from my Macbook Pro. I have since then been using Firefox. I inserted the Mac OSX CDs that came with my Laptop to see if Safari was included on it as an install package, but it appears not.
Where can I get myself another copy/installation of Safari?
I have Max OS X 10.4.9

Hi,
Here's a tutorial from Mac Fixit on this very issue. I have not posted a link because it's a subscription service, so I'm putting here instead.
Good luck!
Re-installing individual Apple applications from Mac OS X media (Safari, Mail.app, etc.)
In many cases, re-installing applications from original media or download packages can resolve problems with launching, improper behavior and other issues that are caused by file corruption or accidental user-deletion of important components.
Re-installing Safari, iChat, and other Apple programs that are not available as individual downloads is a bit more involved than the average application, but can be accomplished via one of two methods:
The first is outlined in our tutorial "Re-installing Apple applications from a Mac OS X disc/update package using Pacifist." Pacifist is a shareware utility which will extract the application file(s) in question from the various .pkg containers on the Mac OS X installer disc and put them back in the proper location on your current Mac OS X startup volume. This option works for most versions of Mac OS X (Jaguar, Panther, Tiger).
The second is detailed in Apple Knowledge base article #301229, and requires using the "Optional Installs.mpkg" package located on the Mac OS X 10.4.x (Tiger) Install DVD. Once you've launched this installer package, you can click the small disclosure triangle next to "Applications" to show a list of available programs, including:
Address Book 4.0
iCal 2.0
iChat 3.0
iTunes 4.7.1
Mail 2.0
Oxford Dictionaries
Safari 2.0
X11
Just check the box next to the application(s) you'd like to install, then click "OK" then "Install."
Restart, then check for persistence of whatever issue you were having with the application.
Here's the Pacifist Tutorial -
Mini-Tutorial: Re-installing Apple applications from a Mac OS X disc/update package using Pacifist
For various reasons, applications originally installed by the Mac OS X Installer disc (DVD or CD) -- Mail.app, Activity Viewer, etc. -- can become unusable. This can occur due to user deletion, corruption of drive sectors, and other problems. Unfortunately, some of these applications are not available as standalone downloads.
However, virtually all of these applications can be restored with the use of a shareware utility called Pacifist, which will extract the application file(s) in question from the various .pkg containers on the Mac OS X installer disc and put them back in the proper location on your current Mac OS X startup volume.
The process is as follows:
Download and install Pacifist, a US $20 shareware utility
Insert your Mac OS X Installation CD or DVD
Launch Pacifist
Click the button "Open Mac OS X Install packages" (this option will be grayed out and inaccessible if no Mac OS X disc is present)
Simply select the desired, currently missing or unusable application and click "Install"
In some cases, a newer version of the desired application than the one your Mac OS X installation disc may be available in a Mac OS X incremental updater package.
In this situation, use the following process
Download the desired Mac OS X incremental installer .pkg from Apple's Software Download page (usually the latest release for your version of Mac OS X -- 10.3.9 for Mac OS X 10.3.x, 10.4.1 for Mac OS X 10.4.x, etc.) and mount its disk image (.dmg) by double-clicking
Launch Pacifist
Click the "Open Package" button and select the incremental updater package (e.g. MacOSXUpdate10.4.1.pkg)
You will be shown a list of the package's (.pkg) contents. Select the desired application and click the "Install" button. Note that some of the listed applications may not complete -- they only include updates to specific components or plug-ins, not the entire application itself. In these cases you will have to use an older incremental update package from the Apple software download page, or the full Mac OS X install CD as mentioned above.

Error message when installing Safari upgrade

Hello, I installed the 10.5.2 OS X upgrade and then tried to install the latest upgrade of Safari-I get this error message:
You cannot install Safari on this volume. This update requires Mac OS X 10.5.2 or newer.
Am I missing some obvious solution since I have that OS version installed?

Ladies and Gentleman…I implore you: Stop Deleting Things when you don't know what you're doing or how you're going to recover from it. Just because something isn't working for you is not a good enough reason to delete it. You have all created bigger problems for yourself by doing so, without solving anything.
You cannot install Safari 3.1.2 from a download, so abandon that thought entirely. If you want to reinstall Safari and get back to 3.1.2, you must do this:
1. Insert your Mac OS X installation disc.
2. Navigate to the Optional Installs folder, then open the package labeled Optional Installs.mpkg. This will let you choose to install Safari 3.0.4.
3. When that is finished, you must download and install the 10.5.4 Combo Update, even if you have done it previously. This will install Safari 3.1.2.
4. Eject the disc, open Disk Utility and Repair Permissions.

I installed Safari 7.1. Now YouTube videos have a bad font for all the interface text that is part of the video embed.

Since installing Safari 7.1, all the text in YouTube videos (title, resolution, etc.) is all little font error boxes and therefore completely unreadable. Nothing else is having this problem, just the text that is in the embedded videos themselves.
Any suggestions?

What I did (in this order) was, set YouTube to HTML 5, bring Flash up to date, fontrestore, clean font cache with Fusion, reboot.
So far it has now remained fixed for me. I have Mavericks and it is up to date.
by ‘fontrestore’ I mean
sudo fontrestore default
in terminal as described on http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/113107/how-to-restore-default-fonts-on- mavericks
fontrestore removed some of my fonts from my System and Library, but I moved them all back in on the theory that I might want to add fonts, but was not looking to remove them.
I don’t know which of these steps solved the problem. All I know is what I did and what the result was for me. As always, use ‘sudo’ at your own risk.

Can i install safari 4 on external drive to try it out?

This is probably a dumb question, but hey, I have asked dumb ones before, what's one more?
I have Safari 3. Would like to try Safari 4, but from what I have read, I am not sure I will love it. I have an external hard drive. Would it be possible to install Safari 4 on the external and keep Safari 3 on my internal until I decide which I like better?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Jane:
In addition to the good feedback from It, if you want to clone your system, I like SuperDuper ($28 at www.shirt-pocket.com). If you use Time Machine, you could also restore to a previous copy if you did not like Safari 4.
FYI, I have found a couple of small issues with Safari 4(that I have reported), but no "show-stoppers." I use Firefox as a workaround if I ever have a Safari-specific issue.

P.S. There are no dumb questions - answers, yes, but not questions.

Need to install Safari 3.x on SL Server.

Can I remove Safari 4 and install Safari 3 on SL Server?
Just in case you want to know why, this is for testing web applications for compatibility with Safari 3.x

Greetings,
You can try this, but there's no guarantee it will work:
1. Download Pacifist and the version of Safari 3 you want to install.
2. Quit Safari.
3. Go to /Applications and put Safari in the Trash.
4. Go to /Library/Receipts and put the Safari403xxxx.pkg in the Trash.
5. Launch Pacifist and open the Safari3xx.dmg file you previously downloaded.
6. Select the top-level package icon in the window and click on the Install button in Pacifist.
7. If asked whether you want to update or replace certain files that already exist, choose Replace and choose to do it for all files.
8. Quit Pacifist when done.
9. Restart your Mac, Repair Disk Permissions, then test Safari to see if it works.

Can't re-install Safari

Hello,
I use Panther 10.3.9 and have 640 RAM.
I just had problems with the computer (logic board) and fixed them.
But Safari keeps crashing. I wanted to re-install it, but couldn't find any download except for the update, 1.3.1, which is what I'm using to post this message.
I downloaded the update (since I couldn't find the program) and I'm getting a nifty message:
! Safari update cannot be installed in this System
So I imagine it won't let me re-install.
I have several important bookmarks and don't want to lose them by trashing Safari to the bin.
Anyways, I downloaded Flash version 8, thinking that would solve my crashing problems. But it didn't.
I have also tried to troubleshoot by clicking on the disable plug-ins and other issues, but the disable plug ins will not let me even get to this page.
So I wonder why I'm getting the message that v.1.3.1 cannot be installed in this System. My Apple Profiler tells me I do have system 10.3.9
and according to Apple's website, this version IS for Panther.
Any suggestions?

Hello Hawaiian-Starman,
Thank you so much for your reply. After I posted this message, my browser crashed and my Mac only re-booted from Darwin. ;(
Looks like Safari was not the problem.
I have erased and re-installed the system and all my applications and I think I am now a Happy Camper!
The technician who helped me re-configure this complicated set up for the wireless router taught me the trick with the receipts - What a coincidence!
But she did tell me to trash the application before trying installation of any receipt.
Thank you!! I really appreciate your help, it would have helped enormously, except I did have a corrupted system.
All the best Surfing in 2006!

You will have to reinstall OS X. In the future ignore such things. Don't click on any links or dial any phone numbers. They are all phishing scams.
Deleting Safari was not a solution.

How to install safari 2 in leopard

*Hi munna, Welcome* to Apple's Users Help Users Forums.
*Francine Schweider* a |||| bar poster in these forums has what I think is an excellent thought.
"I plan to buy my next computer before Leopard comes out. Why? Because generally new Mac computers will not run any system older than the one they ship with, I want to be able to use the fully mature Tiger system, rather than having to rely entirely on Leopard. Who knows whether the software I own will be fully compatible with Leopard? Or how long it will take for developers (think Adobe) to update if there are incompatibilities with Leopard. Or even just how stable and reliable and all like that Leopard will be.
Francine"
Your problem is an example of why her advice is so sound. Hopefully you have a Tiger System clone that you made in case there were Leopard install problems. Keep it and boot from it when you needs apps that are not Leopard ready.

Installing Safari 3 Beta casues Reply/Forward Bug in Mail

After installing Safari 3 Beta any Reply/Forward e-mail command opens new e-mail without original mail text content uncluded.
Attached files are forwarded, although.
Could you confirm?
PB G4 1.5GHz Mac OS X (10.4.9) 1GB Samsung 160GB

What type of account(s) are you using -- POP, IMAP or .mac? I would like you to create a New User Account on your Mac, and as that New User set up at least one email account, and test for this behavior. If POP, do you leave the messages on the server for a while after downloading -- this would provide that you have messages with which to test, as the New User's Mail would again download those message that remain on the server. Also, if using POP, I would want you to quickly check to not allow the New User email account to remove any message it downloads, before you later can download them into your normal user account.
To create a New User Account, see:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh168.html
Also, open a message you have received and tried to Forward, click on View in the Menubar, place the cursor on Message and choose Raw Source. See of the text that has not come into the Compose window is ordinary looking, or itself in some sort of attachment?

Hi Sergio

Can not install Safari 3.1 although I run OS X 10.5.4

When trying to install the newest Safari 3.1 this is the message I get: "You cannot install Safari on this volume. This update requires Mac OS X 10.5.2 or newer.". And I do have OS X 10.5.4. I have tried several times, with fresh downloaded Safari files and get always the same message. And unfortunately I deleted the older Safari in the process, so now I have no Safari whatsoever. Anybody know what I need to do in order to install it?

I am ALSO in the same boat. I have OS X Leopard 10.5.4 with the latest software updates. I recently uninstalled Safari from my system because I wanted to exclusively use Firefox. I decided to reinstall it after about a week, so I went to Apple.com > Downloads, and downloaded the latest version of Safari. When I tried to install, I had the same problem as everybody else reporting this problem, by getting the following error message "You cannot install Safari on this volume. This update requires Mac OS X 10.5.2 or newer."
I ran the custom-install of Safari from my OS X Leopard install DVD, and when running "Sofware update" from the Apple menu in my OS, it tells me I have the latest software. So, once again, after I had Safari installed from my Leopard DVD, I downloaded the latest Safari pkg. from Apple.com, and it is giving me the same error.
WHY is this happening?? Why can't I upgrade from 10.0.4 to 10.1, even though I have Leopard and Safari installed again from the Leopard disk itself? I thought Apple's objective is to make everything so easy and hassle-free, unlike Windows/PC, which is why I switched nearly a year ago.

I want to upgrade to Safari 5.1 Is it possible?

I want to upgrade to Safari 5.1 Is it possible?

Yes if you are running OS 10.6.8. Safari 5.1.7 requires a Mac running Mac OS X v10.6.8
The 10.6 Snow Leopard DVD is in the Apple online store. You can get it for $19.99. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard After you’ve installed that then download the 10.6.8 combo updater to finish it off. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399 You will need to be running 10.6.8 to access the App Store to order Lion, Mountain Lion or Mavericks which are downloads only.
System Requirements for 10.6:
Mac computer with an Intel processor
1GB of memory
5GB of available disk space
DVD drive for installation
Some features require a compatible internet service provider: fees may apply.
