• Huge problems with Safari 4.0.3

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Having huge problems with Safari 4.0.3 since this update. G4 with 1.6Ghz upgrade. Getting constantly spinning beachballs when Java is accessed on certain pages. Have to force quit. A sad disappointment Apple because this only affects YOUR browser. Firefox and Opera working fine. You guys are so wrapped up with Snow Leopard and iPhone that you don't care about anyone else that uses your products.

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Intel MacBook Pro, OSX 10.5.7, Safari 4, Java already turned off in Safari prefs. System stable and everything working properly. Install this Java update Safari no longer goes anywhere. Crashed every time I attempted to go to any URL Tried everything including repair permissions, Disk Warrior, trashing Safari prefs In the end, I had to do a complete system re-install, omitting this latest Java update in Software Update. Everything now works ok again.

• Java 1.6 still not supported

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />As Apple states in the release notes, 1.6 is supported on 64-Bit Intel Macs only. This says, that Apple does not support other Apple-architectures anymore: We cannot expect Java-developpers to downgrade for all the future to 1.5 for just one specific OS. Weâ??ll loose viable applications due to the lack of support from Apple. A remark to â??used for less than a month": Iâ??d like to use 1.6, but I cannot since it doesnâ??t exist for most of my machines. 1.5 works so far - but itâ??s not an excellent implementation, too.

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />I'm so pleased that Apple released this implementation of J2SE 5.0. At long last, I can access my bank account information without trouble. This has been such an inconvenience in the past. I'm very pleased with this update.
