MacGroup: Re: Safari can't find the server
Offering observations only, no answers: I've been following the recent cable/router/DNS related threads. It occurred to me of a somewhat similar communications problem I have with that same Safari error, but it only happens when my networking is consistently busy. System configuration? -- Mac Mini: 1.4GHz PPC G4, 1GB RAM, 56K int. modem -- Boot volume: 80GB ext FW, Mac OS X v10.4.6 -- USB Apple Pro keyboard Optical mouse (no wireless) Apps running? Finder, Activity Monitor, Internet Connect, Mail, Unison (newsreader) -- My news server allows up to 4 simultaneous connections, and I have my prefs set to 3; so, my modem is always busy. When I add Safari, Software Update, iTunes Music Store, or any other active network related app, I get similar kinds of n/w errors? Safari yields the Safari can't find the server error; if I stop the Unison network activity, the Safari error has *rarely* happened. Software Update just sits there after it begins; if I stop the Unison network activity, S.U. proceeds and connects to the Apple server. iTunes Music Store yields the network reset error; if I stop the Unison network activity, iTunes connects to the Music Store. All seemingly related to my communications (internal modem) being too busy to carry the addition of more network activity. Regards, Russ Preston -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Jerry Yeager jerry at browseryshop.com wrote: You know, I don't think this one (pulldowns in favorites bar) is mentioned by other folks ... But it is obvious because they give you a pulldown called News in the default setup. I really think Apple's method for managing bookmarks in Safari is way, way better than the other browsers. It is a little complicated. I like URL Manager Pro (UMP) the best. You organize and build your bookmarks in this separate application, which appears in a window and also as a pull-down in the Mac's menu bar at the top of the screen. The pull-down menu of your bookmarks is hierarchical, shows all the categories and folder levels you have set up just like NOW Menus or Action Menus or FruitMenu, and is instantly available. UMP is automatically launched by browsers, and the pull-down menu is shared by any and all browsers that use Shared Menu Library, so no matter which browser I jump to, all of my 981 bookmarks in their 50 folders in can be pulled down from the top. I can run four browsers in four windows, and the same pull-down menu of bookmarks is there at the top of the screen.

MacGroup: Re: Safari
Hmm, it is possible that you have a permissions corruption somewhere Mike. Apple is rumored to be adding support for using the keychain to store passwords and may have the basic stuff there now so that they can add the rest of it later. if so, then it is possible that this is causing the interference you are seeing. Before you give up an have to wait for an update fix from Apple, try the following: There is a program on Apple's site that repair permissions. Try running this and see if that fixes the problem. I don't recall the link, maybe Ward knows it?? if this does not fix it, then go ahead and remove Safari and wait until the next release. In the mean time you will miss the speed that Safari offers so try Chimera, It is almost as fast as Safari (and some say just as fast or faster). it is available at http://www.mozilla.org/ Jerry On Tuesday, January 14, 2003, at 01:59 AM, Mike Watkins wrote: Jerry; This no-send-um-Mail situation is confusing,to say the least. Obviously I got my last message to you folks with no hang-ups/ no delays. But usually, when it won't go, I am not running Safari at the same time. I did click on the bug to report my problem, when I next went to Safari. It is fast, but I may have to get rid of it and go back to Explorer... thought I'd give it a bit of a chance, first, however.

I see now where the Moderator of the OSX section of Apple Discussions http://discussions.info.apple.com/webx announced that: Safari Update 1-10-03 addresses the issue or issues being discussed in this and other forums. Apple recommends all Safari users download the update available at http://www.apple.com/safari/download/. Allan Atherton | The next meeting of the Louisville Computer Society will | be January 28.

Browsing the usual sites, it appears that I'm not the first to have this problem, and it looks like Safari is the culprit I'm back to Chimera until this has been resolved. I've been running IE and Netscape for a year in OSX, Chimera for the past 2 weeks and Safari for the past week. Both Chimera and Safari are betas. I must say I don't like the heavy metal appearance of Safari. Why do you think Safari caused the crash? Because it was the last thing installed?
