Re: Safari 6.1 bug?
Yes, I can confirm this behavior is happening on my 2011 MBA under ML. In fact, I can replicate it with the latest versions of other Webkit-based browsers Chrome Webkit Nightly, so perhaps it is a flaw in the current webkit code. It wouldn’t be the first time this particular bug has slipped into webkit. As I reported previously on this list, I am experiencing similar behavior under Mavericks. I’m not sure how to back-level Safari, but perhaps you might have some luck installing one of the archived webkit versions from August or Sept.

Re: Safari 6.1 bug?
Hi Brian, Interesting. I don’t listen to web page summaries, so never noticed this behavior. I always just start navigating with quicknav or vo-cmd keys, and it works. That’s definitely a weird bug. Best, Zack. On Nov 3, 2013, at 9:01 AM, Bryan Jones openses...@me.com wrote: Yes, I can confirm this behavior is happening on my 2011 MBA under ML.

Re: Safari 6.1 bug?
Hi All, I'm not sure whether it's possible to downgrade from Safari 6.1 if you're running Mavericks, where this is Safari 7.0, but people who have been running Mountain Lion who want to revert to Safari 6.0.5 have been able to reinstall the operating system from the recovery partition by pressing Command+R on startup. This boots up from the recovery partition, and replaces the stock Mac apps with the versions in the recovery partition, and does not affect your third party apps. I don't remember how accessible this process was, since I made a bootable USB drive for both Lion and Mountain Lion. Apparently, Time Machine backups may not easily work here, since you'd have to also fix the bookkeeping of your currently installed apps. And I don't know what happens if you try this under Lion. This is one of the reasons that I like to make full bootable clone backups periodically. Apparently, quite a lot of people don't like Safari 6.1, since there are many posts in the Apple Support forums from people trying to roll back.

Re: Safari 6.1 bug?
An update to my note about Webkit versions: After installing today's Webkit Nightly builds, the headings issues *appear* to be resolved for me on both ML Mavericks. With this current version I am not experiencing the following headings issues, though they still exist in Safari Chrome Canary: Google search results were showing just a few items under headings; Comments in Applevis postings were displaying the comment number with no associated heading text; Amazon search results were displaying just a small part of each heading. YMMV, use at your own risk, etc. Other things might be broken in these versions. The version numbers reported are: On ML: Version 6.1 (8537.71, 538+) On Mavericks: Version 7.0 (9537.71, 538+) HTH, Bryan On Nov 3, 2013, at 12:01 PM, Bryan Jones openses...@me.com wrote: Yes, I can confirm this behavior is happening on my 2011 MBA under ML.

Safari 6.1 bug?
I've just upgraded to Safari 6.1 and I wonder if anyone else has struck the same problem I'm encountering. Now, when I open a web page and ask for headings, Safari only announces one or two headings, even though I know there are more. For example, a Google search results page now announces only two headings, when I know there should be a dozen or so. After encountering this poblem, I've tested by trying Safari on another machine. Running the old version of Safari, headings announce fine. As soon as I upgraded to version 6.1, they no longer announced properly. Anyone have any idea how to fix this problem? And if not, how easy is it to revert to the previous version of Safari? (I'm running OSX Lion, 10.7.5).

Re: Safari 6.1 bug?
Yes, I am having the same exact problem, and encounter this header bug when using the voiceover rotor but once I exit the rotor and use quick nag I can navigate down through the headers. This is yet another very pathetic bug on Apple's part and either Voiceover gets little to no testing before any releases or the testers testing voiceover are morons.
