Re: [MacGroup] Safari Locking Up CONSTANTLY!
When I was still on 10.4 I had lock up's with Safari 3 I had to downgrade back to Safari 2 to make Safari usable. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Greg Schoettmer Sent: Sunday, March 09, 2008 8:33 PM To: Louisville Mac User Group Subject: [MacGroup] Safari Locking Up CONSTANTLY! Hi folks, I'm experiencing some unusual frustration with my Mac. When using Safari I am getting the eternal spinning rainbow ball more and more frequently. I am becoming oh so familiar with Force Quit. This is what I was used to on a PC and its infamous ctrl-alt-delete! Any ideas on why this is occurring? I'm using OS X 10.4.11 and Safari 3.0.4.

Re: [MacGroup] Safari Locking Up CONSTANTLY!
Thanks for all the inputs; I'm trying them all. BTW, how would you downgrade to Safari 2 unless you have it on a hard drive some place? Can you go to some Apple web site and download old versions?

Re: [MacGroup] Safari Locking Up CONSTANTLY!
Greg I used this posting at macosxhints to straighten mine out. http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20070612131825986 Now I don't have any problems with Safari 3 an Leopard but Safari 3 and Tiger are not good together. I see people using nightly builds of Safari and I say they are crazy trying to use it for anything but testing. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Greg Schoettmer Sent: Monday, March 10, 2008 8:03 AM To: Louisville Mac User Group Subject: Re: [MacGroup] Safari Locking Up CONSTANTLY!

Sounds like you may need to run DiskWarrior on the drive? John On Mar 9, 2008, at 8:33 PM, Greg Schoettmer wrote: Hi folks, I'm experiencing some unusual frustration with my Mac.

Re: [MacGroup] Safari Locking Up CONSTANTLY!
Don't forget a full shutdown and restart. You might also look at what else you might have running; some apps have auto-update routines and something might have decided to stop playing nice with Safari. Also, just being on a page that's running a lot of Flash or Java for long periods can sometimes cause the application memory to run out and lock up, so if it's happening at one or two sites in particular look at that.
