How to Downgrade Safari – Supported & Unsupported Options

If you recently installed the Mojave Supplemental Update and were surprised to see Safari 14.0 installed, you are not alone.

UPDATE 4/30/21 – This article explained originally how to downgrade from Safari 14.0 to 13.1.2 due to a problem. Apple has pulled the Safari 14.1 Update for both Catalina and Mojave. Users are reporting the error Safari 14.1 = webpage loading errors “a problem repeatedly occurred” . You can attempt to use the same instructions to downgrade from Safari 14.1 to 14.0.3. I’ve included Safari 14.0.3 download links at the bottom

Confirmed the following after reinstall of 10.14.6 over the top of current install (retains user data) Build Version (18G103) Safari 12.1.2 Software Update shows Security Update 2021-003 & Safari 14.0.3 Good workaround until Apple releases a fix ? Should be the same for 10.15

You are probably asking yourself, why would anyone want to downgrade from Safari 14 to 13. Safari was offered as a separate download in software update so users could remain on Safari 13 if they wanted. This was fine until the 2020-005 Security Update started to break systems . After issue, Apple re-issued Safari 14.0 but renamed it “Mojave Supplemental Update”. This caught many off guard because they didn’t understand that installing this update was actually installing Safari 14.0.

Readers wrote in and asked me if there is a way to downgrade Safari. Many still needed Flash, others had website compatibility issues. Some just really missed Top Sites. Another big problem was that some users upgraded to Safari 14.0.1 Beta. They are still broke because the supplemental update did not include 14.0.1 as a compatible upgrade version. I recommend that you do anything possible so you don’t need to downgrade. Most users will be just fine with Safari 14. The new version includes user privacy improvements and security fixes.

Supported and Unsupported

I will show you 2 different ways to downgrade from Safari 14.0 to 13.1.2.

• 1. Supported Way – Reinstall (not erase and install) macOS Mojave 10.14.6 (18G103) = Safari 12.1.2
• 2. Unsupported Way – Disable SIP protection > Remove Safari 14.app and Files > Install Safari 13.1.2 > Enable SIP again = Safari 13.1.2

When I say Supported I mean this is what Apple would recommend and is the best path forward. Unsupported is what some users have done the past that might or might not have some compatibility issues. Consider this a warning. I have tested this multiple times and not had an issue, but you might! So please backup before you test this path. You can always install Safari 14.0 again if needed.

The following instructions are only for macOS Mojave.

I did not test this on Catalina or High Sierra, but I’ve included download links below if you would like to try. Readers who have contacted me were only asking about Mojave because of the Supplemental Update naming issue.

Supported Way = Reinstall macOS Mojave

The is pretty cut and dry, you will reinstall macOS Mojave 10.14.6 over the top of your current version of Mojave. An example of this that you are running 10.14.6 (18G6032). This is the latest version of Mojave available and includes all the security fixes in the 2020-005 Update. If you want to see a full listing of macOS versions, take a look at my macOS System Status and Versions Page. After reinstalling macOS Mojave you will be at version# 10.14.6 & BuildVersion number (18G103). Safari will be at 12.1.2.

• 1. Backup all your files (always a good thing just in case)
• 2. Reboot to the Recovery Partition (Command R)
• 3. Click Install macOS
• 4. You are now at macOS Mojave 10.14.6 BuildVersion 18G103 and Safari 12.1.2
• 5. Install Safari 13.1.2 (download link below)
• 6. Install Security Update 2020-004
• 7. NOTE: I did NOT test installing the 2020-005 Security Update after. The Safari 13.1.2 + 2020-004 Security Update install order was offered by Apple when the 2020-005 update was pulled. This was a tested path by them and is supported.

You are back on Safari 13.1.2! Keep in mind you are missing important security updates. I hope that you can fix any compatibility issues that you may have and get on the latest version.

Unsupported Way = Uninstall Safari

As mentioned above, this is an unsupported path. Please backup your files or run a time machine before attempting this. Another thing you could do is run a tmutil localsnapshot / . You could immediately revert back to before any changes if needed. Remember the localsnapshots only last for 24 hours! I have tested this multiple times and have not found any issues, but you might! Let’s get started.

• 1. Make a backup first!
• 2. Disable SIP
• 3. Boot to the recovery partition > Open Terminal > Type in csrutil disable
• 5. Download Safari 13.1.2
• 6. Safari 13.1.2 = http://swcdn.apple.com/content/downloads/38/62/061-98246-A_DETHLIXKPC/njpb63acy0z0rgpdpewxts5rfjlkhtdvcy/Safari13.1.2MojaveAuto.pkg
• 7. Download AppCleaner v3.5 – https://freemacsoft.net/appcleaner/
• 8. Download Pacifist v3.6.2 – charlessoft.com/cgi-bin/pacifist_download.cgi?type=dmg
• 9. Install both apps
• 10. Use AppCleaner to remove Safari 14.0 – Go to preferences and uncheck “Protect default OS X apps”. Drag safari.app over to the app then select all files. then click remove.
• 11. Install Safari 13.1.2MojaveAuto.pkg using Pacifist.app – Drag Safari13.1.2MojaveAuto.pkg over to the app. A new window will pop up. Highlight the main pkg in the list then hit install. You will see 2 admin prompts and a prompt to overwrite files, select overwrite all.
• 12. Reboot to recovery and re-enable SIP. Open Terminal > Type in csrutil enable
• 13. Reboot back to macOS. You are now back to Safari 13.1.2

Thanks so much for providing this useful resource. I am following the updated tip in comments from Mr M and, confusingly, the recommended System Preferences/ update pane wants to install Safari 14.1, I have Safari 14.0.3, so for now I stopped there I am wondering if it’s safe to presume that the 14.1 that’s available from Apple now is safe. It is being presented by Apple once more

Yes, the re-posted Safari 14.1 is a different build which corrects the issues previously observed.

Is there anywhere to download Safari 13 now?

Links for Safari 13 are dead again.

Hey man thanks, I did an upgrade of my safari 13.1.2 to 14 and I got an issue because my macboock doesn’t support the newest version, so I got angry.

I checked your post and I used the unsuported way, that works!! I downloaded safari from another web page but your steps works without problems, Im very grateful with you, in Mexico we use a phrase for these situations “No todos los heroes Susan capa”(Not all the heroes use cape), thank you very much!

the 13.1.2 safari is loss，can you update links？

The both links for Safari 13.1.2 for Mojave are death. Can you update the links please?

me too. download link not working. please !!!!

Dear Mr. Macintosh,

I know the 2020-005 and suplemental upatate have been out now for a week.

I am still at the 18G6020, Mojave, and although wanted to go directly to Catalina, thought i’d give the updates a try and then go to Catalina.

as you say ”good to go” but are the latest updates to Mojave all free of the issues now. I’ve been (hate to say) filled with anxiety over updates for my Mac Air which is running perfectly with my current version of Mojave

The other question I have, and thought about, if I did skip the updates currently sitting on my ‘system preferences’ it also shows 10.15.7 (Catalina) 8.25 GB, ”upgrade now”

As another option, can I just go to Catalina and what would I expect in terms of install time, with a good Comcast speed.

Or would you recommend doing Mojave update and then Catalina ?

Your advice is most appreciated.

Bill Girolamo

I have currently 2 updates waiting on my Mojave 10.14.6 which are:

2020-005 Security Update and the Supplemental update (which now contains Safari 14.0) I did not update update to Safari 14.0 when it was offered to Mojave users a few weeks ago.

That being said, now i’ve got two updates waiting and know that the supplemental update contains not only bug fixes but also 14.0 Safari.

Do I have to install both or can I just install the 2020-005 update?

I don’t know even after spending time on your site this morning https://mrmacintosh.com/10-14-6-supplemental-update-safari-14-released-to-fix-previous-issues/ and watching the full video am still confused.

I did not install either update, so now Do I have to install BOTH 2020-005 and Supplemental and get the new version of Safari? (14.0)

Are the updates below mutually exclusive, where I could only install the security update 2020 – 005

if you can let me know That would be helpful

Bill Girolamo – 2 Mac User on Safari 13 and Mojave 10.14.6 18G6020

Bill, trust me this is very confusing. I tried my best to explain it but you are not the only one still left with questions.

To answer it, All you need to do in the system preferences > Software Update pane is click Install Now. (Make sure both updates are checkmarked)

Software update will install both updates and you will be good to go! Let me know how it goes.

Thank you Mr. Macintosh !

I was thinking of skipping and going directly to 10.15.7 Catalina and retaining the Safari 13 Which is still a stand-alone install, I’ve been told?

Your solution will install safari 14 and keep me at Mojave

Thank you again, your site is very detailed and helpful

I personally don’t believe you need to install both. The 2020-005 update is unchanged from it’s original posting. The Supplemental does have a rebuilt version of Safari 14, but I can’t find any evidence of any additional bug fixes in the content of the installer nor any of the scripts run during installation, but I haven’t had time to do more than a cursory comparison of those installations.

If it were me and I wanted to stay with Safari 13 (I don’t) then I would install the Security Update and then run softwareupdate -l and if there is no error message, you should be good to go.

Thanks Al, I appreciate the note and the information. The question I have is if i have one installed the 2020-005 and not the supplemental update, if I have problems, i’ll have a days’ work of determining the issues. If Mr. Macintosh says the 2 together work fine, i’d opt for going with both, or skipping them all together and going directly with Catalina 10.15.7, which is continuing to offer the 14.0.01 Safari install as a stand alone.

That’s the only dilemma I have right now, going with an 8 GB install or just updating the Mojave. I know, eventually, and soon, i’ll need to grab Catalina because in the next week Big SUR will be at everyones doorstep and at that point, i may not be able to go to the next OS.

I normally wait the year, before gong to the prior year macOS, and this year is no different and am never in a hurry to instal l “Security updates” especially now with all the issues each install brings. I wait patiently, review via Google or in this case Mr. Macintosh who did a great job giving all the scenarios that people could have hit.

I hit the one where I did NOT install anything and then 14 Safari was offered as a Supplemental update and had i just installed both I would have received 14.0 w/out knowing .. not a wise move for apple. The install s/have been Very clear, but it did say it in the notes.

SO, my only choice at this juncture is update Mojave and take the 14 safari or go to Catalina

Thanks again for your response, it was greatly appreciated.

Not sure I understand why you believe you will have “a days’ worth of work of determining the issues.” In my case I installed only the Security Update, checked with the above mentioned Terminal command to see if there was an issue and waited two or three days before applying the Supplemental, since I knew I wanted to restore Safari 14.

Thanks Al, I didn’t realize that you only installed the 2020-005 component, I must have missed that. So it’s good to know that if I only install that 2020-005 it will not cause an issue and I will remain at Safari 13.1.2

I thought the supplemental update contained bug fixes for the 2020-005 component and that they had to be installed together.

Thanks for the clarification. It was appreciated

Which is the build number of Safari 14.0 for Catalina?

Thanks Camelia

15610.1.28.1.9

I may have missed it, but Tech Tool 13 seems to contain new code that prevents an easy install on Mojave Macs. When I asked them I was told to restart in safe mode, use the terminal, add instructions, restart before I could complete a registration for a Mac pro 2012 (12 core) Mojave. I loaded the same Tech Tool 13 on a Mac pro 2008 (8 core) with el captain with no problem.

One possible issue with the Unsupported method is that normally the WebKit framework is closely matched with Safari. AppCleaner won’t remove WebKit and the 3.1.2 installer probably doesn’t replace the newer version. If you toss the entire framework, it breaks the Installer.app which requires the javascript component contained therein. It’s been a few years since I’ve successfully accomplished such a downgrade, so I don’t know from experience exactly what issues might be involved this time.

Catalina to me was released too soon, and Safari must have had some serious changes that don’t work well with some web sites. I’ve had warnings from Safari about pages taking too much energy, or were refreshed randomly. One time it got so bad it crashed and rebooted my MacBook Air. Not exactly the stability I was expecting. I’m sure another 6 or so updates lately we might see things Smooth out.

I am running many of these comments by my wife, a dyed-in-the-wool MacUser, and none of these complaints have effected her, after “updating” this week. If there is a common denominator, she has side-stepped it.

Safari 13 is an absolute disaster and a security nightmare. All extensions cease to function. There’s only a couple left and they’re by far not as advanced as what you could do before. Extremely powerful and useful security tools such as for example JSBlocker will no longer be available.

I don’t know what Apple was thinking, but this is complete and utter BS. Now we’re being forced to switch to another browser that *does* support proper extensions, and lose all the pros that Safari had to offer – especially in combination with an iOS device.

Shame on Apple for killing Safari like this. They didn’t even have the common courtesy to implement a toggle or terminal route to re-enable extensions. (By sideloading from file.) Safari went from a very nice and decent browser to a browser that has to be avoided as it can’t even be properly secured.

Today I spent over an hour on the phone with an AppleCare tech and they never were able to solve my issue with Safari 13.1 failing on many but not all web sites. Strange, but some sites work and others will just reload every few seconds and then finally error out. I was finally told that 13.1 will not work with High Sierra and I must upgrade to Mojave or Catalina. But my two iMacs and my MacBook Pro are mid 2011 and they told me they’re too old for these O/Ss so basically I’m screwed. Fortunately I didn’t update one of my iMacs’ beyond 12.1.2 and it still works. But I’m not going to toss my other Macs just yet since Chrome seems to work just fine. I miss Safari but for sure I’ll not be buying Mac products anytime soon and I don’t own an iPhone either. Btw: a friend tells me his mac runs 13.1 in Mojave ok.

Regarding AgileBits/1Password being a relatively small company: It has over 15 million registered users, which in the commercial software business is a very large company. Now consider that AgileBits is doing everything in its power to convince current and new customers to pay for annual subscription licenses. The company definitely has the financial resources to take care of its customers.

Safari 13 still can not or will not play Amazon Instant Video. What a shame.

can’t open Twitter or Youtube, thanks Apple. only updated to iOS 13 couple of days ago, twitter stopped working last night, youtube stopped overnight for me

You guys are lucky it even launch. After the update, my Safari won’t launch. I rebooted my computer several time but it didn’t fix the problem. Any idea how to downgrade?

This has happened to me too. Haven’t found a fix yet.

Oh great. Installed this yesterday, now most of my extensions no longer function, and some websites which all worked previously, now don’t allow me to log in to them. Thanks Apple.

Same problems here. There are several, everyday websites which i can no longer open. Thanks from me, too Apple

Lost all my extensions but one, including my Dashlane password manager and Evernote web clipper, both of which I use all the time. Also having trouble loading some webpages. Guess I’m going back to Chrome.

Lucky You! I lost all extensions, and it loads like a geriatric weightlifter…

Since the update to version 13, a lot of selenium tests are failing. Does anybody know if some webdriver update is required or is it just broken?

Just wanted to thank all of the commenters here for saving me from dealing with this pain-in-the butt release. Much appreciated.

Looks like icloud tabs are also broken by Safari 13 update

The new version is awful. It’s removed all the useful extensions including translator. Neither I have any similar options, nor I can downgrade to previous version of Safari to fix the issue.

I face the same problem with translation. And this is vital for me as I am living in Japan. I would much appreciate if you share with me any solution you may find.

Try Polyglot

Downgrading to Mojave won’t save you form Safari 13. It get shoved at you unless you have auto-updates turned off. Even then you get notifications to update your browser and the “red badge of nag” perpetually hanging there on the System Preferences icon.

This happened to me too. I logged into my Mac and “installing updates” notification appeared in the top right of my screen. I was like “what is updating? I have auto update turned off!”

If was Safari 13.

Evernote and many other extensions stopped working. Back to Chrome!

Safari 13 is a disaster. An AV extension that protected me from risky web pages stopped working, some web pages do not load at all, whereas they load fine in FireFox.

DO NOT upgrade to Safari 13.0 (14608.1.49), wait a few cycles until Apple have sorted out the bugs.

Horrible. Safari 13 removed every extension I had previously installed over the years. No way to get them back. Totally degraded my ability to be productive with this browser. That marks the end of Safari for me. I am astonished Apple would do something so alienating to users.

I was EXTREMELY reliant on some lesser known extensions and now they’re gone. I’ve lost my patience so I’m going back to chromium

No warning of download, iMac slowed to a crawl, shut down and reboot. Then I find Facebook Purity no longer works as Tappermonkey has been removed by Apple.

The Safari 13 upgrade deleted all my favourite bookmarks. There were folders of links that I had accumulated, and they were all wiped out. If Apple knew this would happen, a warning would have been nice. If Apple didn’t know this would happen, they should improve their testing.

Safari 13.0 is crashing my imac with mojave irrespective of which browser (safari, chrome & opera) I am using. Its like Apple’s latest release is Malware. Thanks Apple, you have completely ruined my computer and totally destroyed my trust I have had since owning new an Apple II se

The extension I miss most is the Autopagerize one where you do a search on anything and the screen would just cascade and scroll down endlessly without clicking a next or number option. I also used one that was a search other. Click the tab and a drop down came up where you could select Google, Bing, Duck Duck Go, etc and it would go there without having to copy and paste what you searched on and bring up Google or Bing and paste into that and search on it. Big mistake eliminating the legacy extensions.

My Canvas modules keep resetting to the top of the page every time I scroll down.

I have reinstalled the OS Mojave due to safari 13.0 Hands off doesn’t work at all on it

Downgrading Safari 13 to 12 doesn’t re-enable legacy extensions. I tried (and so did others).

Unless you have a Time Machine backup (or some other backup) or do a clean install of Mojave or earlier, you’re screwed.

Franky, I think the state of Safari extensions is atrocious. Almost nobody pays for extensions, therefore most of them don’t profit, and yet Apple decided to start charging for the developer license for Safari (I know it’s because they rolled the three separate licenses into one, which was great for iOS and macOS, but a terrible move for Safari).

So now extension developers have to pony up money to develop for a browser with a relatively small market share and which still lacks some functionality (either because it never existed in the first place or because it used to exist and Apple ripped it out). Then, to offset those costs, they charge users for their extensions. And, you know, fair enough, but some of the prices are ridiculous, and even if they weren’t, almost nobody wants to pay for browser extensions.

At the end of the day, I’ve switched to Firefox (for now – will probably end up using a different browser later on) since I’ve been slowly migrating my passwords out of iCloud keychain anyway. It’s a pain though, and Apple don’t care. And God forbid you upgrade before backing up your extension settings – the Safari 13 update process will nuke those from orbit.

And worse.. this new 13.0 broke my gmail. When trying to validate my account Safari opens up to NOTHING so I can’t do crap. So I can no longer use mac mail with gmail. Thank God I use Chrome.

You can set up e-mail manually without opening safari at all…Jusr choose “other” when asked which service you’d like to set up. The only drawback is you won’t be able to automatically sync notes, calendars, contacts. Email itself will work though.

Same issue for me. But it is worse, because it basically disabled my Gmail account integration in Mac OS, and I have no way to reactivate it. This sucks totally.

@Dreamer, I reported to Apple the issue with strong password – missing special characters in the keychain suggested passwords. They simply ignored it. Apple has a huge organizational procedure problem!

Now all the annoying Ad comes back- can’t use anything really to block them. I think this is the main upgrade for Safari 13!

For anyone who has older extensions download from the separate Safari extensions repository that no longer work in Safari 13 (due to that repository being removed in Safari 13), you should go to the app store and see if they can be downloaded from there. As of Safari 13, Apple is no longer going to maintain a separate extension repository but rather have all extensions hosted in the app store only. Currently maintained and popular extensions should show up there currently (or very shortly), i would expect. So before worrying about downgrading back to Safari 12, try the app store for your re-installing your favorite extensions.

First thing everyday I start Sirius Radio ( https://player.siriusxm.com/now-playing ). It has never used more than a gig of memory. Now it’s memory usage climbs by the minute. Restarted after it hit 3.42 GB. They trying to get my to switch to an Apple music app?

My whatsapp web keeps crashing after this update….

Same with me, WhatsApp web keeps crashing

Not too happy that my current version of 1Password will no longer work with Safari 13 !

Took me a while to figure it out. Upgrade to 1Password 7 which also enables the mini 1Password onto this new Safari version.

I lost 2 extensions which “will not work” with this upgrade. Would have been nice to know in advance.

I started up Safari to find all my extensions gone, and not knowing it was due to Safari 13, I tried to reinstall the 1Password extension. Next thing I know, I’ve been upgraded to 1Password 7 without being asked if I wanted it, and kept getting redirected to the App Store to pay for it! I’m a long time Apple fan but this was infuriating. Going to see how Chrome syncs with all my devices.

Important reminder that they didn’t bother to mention in the release notes: legacy extensions (those installed from the gallery rather than the App Store) will no longer function in Safari 13.

Yep, say goodnight to AdGuard. Now the hunt for least evil and least expensive way to block ads begins. Maybe time to dust off the ‘ol Pihole again.

steel laggy then crash on whatsAapp web

I find the dedicated desktop app works better for whatsapp on the mac than using whatsapp web.

Have they fixed where strong password fails to meet site’s requirement to include a special character that isn’t -‘s ? Annoying that it won’t let you enhance its suggestions and have to settle for your a usual to get things done…

Upgraded to Safari 13 and now the 1Password 6 plug-in doesn’t work. So I would love to see a downgrade from Safari 13 back to 12 post next!

Different Brian here but same issue. I tried looking for downgrade options, and it looks like unless we restore a Time Machine backup, we’re out of luck. Super annoyed. I don’t even *like* the 1Password 7 UI, never mind the price tag.

I’m with on both counts Brian #2. I’m really sorry I upgraded to Safari 13. Wish 1PW had better informed its customers that there would be issues for those with 1PW 6

Another option is to contact 1Password and tell them to get their act together. I’m sure they were given opportunity to test before this was released.

This isn’t on 1Password. They actually have a solution (granted one that I can’t afford right now), their latest version has a valid extension, it’s those of us using the previous version who are out of luck. It’d be nice of them to release one for V6, but they’re a relatively small company and you can’t really expect it.

I had the same problem with 1Password 6 not working. I switched to Enpass which could import all the 1Password items. The Mac version is free but the iOS version is 10 $ (one time fee) which sounds reasonable to me but I don’t really do any browsing on the iPhone.

How-To Geek

I tried browsing the web with safari 1.0, here's how it went.

Hands-on with Apple's first web browser.

Key Takeaways

• Safari 1.0 was released in 2003 to replace Internet Explorer on the Mac.
• It was lacking some features compared to other web browsers, but it was fast and minimalist.
• Safari 1.0 is not compatible with most modern websites.

Safari was introduced in 2003 as Apple's replacement for Internet Explorer on the Mac, and it has continued to evolve since then as the default browser on all Apple devices. Let's take a deep dive into the browser that started it all: Safari 1.0.

The first version of Safari was released on June 23rd, 2003 , following a public beta that reached nearly five million downloads. The initial version was an optional download for Macs running Mac OS X 10.2 Jaguar , and it was later bundled with Mac OS X 10.3 Panther . Apple continued shipping Safari with every new Mac operating system, continuing to the present day with new releases of macOS.

Hello, Safari

Safari is a core system application on Mac computers, so you can't (easily) use older versions on newer operating systems that have a newer Safari version already installed. In the name of science, I fired up my trusty 1999 PowerMac G3, created a new drive partition, and installed a fresh copy of Mac OS X 10.3 Panther. That release shipped with Safari version 1.1, so this isn't technically the first public version, but it's close enough.

Safari 1.0 is a far cry from modern versions of Apple's web browser, but there are some familiar interface elements. The top bar has the back, forward, reload, and bookmark buttons that are still present in today's web browsers, but the address bar and web search are two separate text fields.

Google Chrome helped popularize the idea of a combined address and search bar when it was released in 2009, but before that, most web browsers had the same split text fields. On that note, Google is the default search engine, and I didn't see an option anywhere to change it.

Safari 1.0 isn't just minimalist by today's standards. This new Mac OS X installation also came with Internet Explorer 5 for Mac, which has a much more cluttered design with a sidebar, status bar, and more buttons at the top of the window. You could click a button on the sidebar to hide most of that for distraction-free browsing, but Safari is less complicated out of the box.

Most of the other browsers from this time, like Opera, Netscape, and the Mozilla Application Suite, were similarly feature-packed. The first version of Firefox arrived in 2004, the year after Safari, with a simplified feature set and a focus on web browsing. There is support for tabbed browsing in Safari 1.0, but it's not enabled by default.

There's also a bookmarks manager for organizing your favorite sites and pages, accessible from the menu bar or the bookmarks button in the bookmarks bar. The default bookmarks are a fun look back at the early-2000s internet, with links to Amazon, PayPal, BBC News, MapQuest, Monster.com, and other sites.

The preferences panel has some options for how windows open, where to save files and pages, turning on tabbed browsing, managing plugins, and deleting browsing cookies. There's also an AutoFill feature that can fill in web forms with information from your Address Book.

I also noticed this early version of Safari doesn't have an Inspect Element option, or seemingly any other web development features. You can view the HTML source code for a page, but that's it.

Surf Like It's 2003

So, what can you actually do with Safari 1.0 in 2024? Well, not a lot. This is a twenty-year-old web rendering engine, with no support for modern HTML and CSS layout features, HTML5 video, or most JavaScript features. Every site that loads over HTTPS (SSL) shows security warnings or refuses to load at all.

The main Google home page works, but the search results use a broken mobile layout. CNN, Apple.com, Wikipedia, eBay, and BBC News don't load at all. Amazon made the browser freeze for about a minute, complete with the spinning beachball of death, then loaded a page with just text and no styling or images.

There are a few websites designed specifically for older browsers, though. The FrogFind search engine created by Action Retro on YouTube works well here, which downgrades modern sites to simpler text-based layouts.

FrogFind doesn’t always work well, but it does turn websites like Wikipedia from completely unusable to readable.

Looking Back at Tomorrow

You can’t use Safari 1.0 for typical web browsing anymore, but it’s still a fascinating look at Apple’s vision for the future of web browsing. It wasn’t a feature-packed internet suite, like Netscape and Mozilla, or a super-customizable application like Opera. It was a fast, simple, and focused web browser, built on top of the modern KHTML engine from KDE’s Konqueror project.

Even though Safari wasn’t a perfect experience in its early days, the response from Mac owners was generally positive. Macworld said in 2003 , “Safari loaded pages faster than Internet Explorer in four out of five tests — in some cases, almost twice as fast.” The review from CNET for the 1.0 release said, “We encountered only minor bugs, usually related to JavaScript errors, though less so than the beta versions. Overall, Safari performed well.”

Safari went on to serve as the default browser for the iPhone and iPad, and there was a short-lived Windows version starting in 2007 . Safari’s underlying WebKit engine has also helped shape the internet we know today. WebKit was used by Google Chrome for years until Google forked it to create the Blink engine , which is now used by Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Vivaldi, and other web browsers.

For now, though, I’m happy to get back to a functioning modern web browser.

Ios 17.5—apple issues update now warning to all iphone users.

• Share to Facebook
• Share to Twitter
• Share to Linkedin

Apple has issued iOS 17.5 along with a warning to update your iPhone as soon as possible. That’s because iOS 17.5 fixes 15 security vulnerabilities, some of which are serious.

Apple remains tight-lipped about exactly what is fixed in iOS 17.5, to ensure as many people as possible are able to upgrade their iPhones before attackers can get hold of the details.

Among the important flaws patched in iOS 17.5 are an issue in the Kernel at the heart of the iPhone operating system tracked as CVE-2024-27818, which could allow an attacker to execute code. Another issue fixed in iOS 17.5, in AppleAVD, could see an adversary able to execute arbitrary code with Kernel privileges if a user downloads an app, Apple said on its support page .

Apple has issued iOS 17.5 along with a warning to update your iPhone as soon as possible.

Another significant bug squashed in iOS 17.5 is a vulnerability in Voice Control that could allow an attacker to elevate privileges. Meanwhile, CVE-2024-27834 is a flaw in WebKit, the engine that underpins the Safari browser, which could allow an attacker to bypass Pointer Authentication.

An issue in MarketplaceKit tracked as CVE-2024-27852 and reported by researchers at security outfit Mysk could see a maliciously crafted webpage able to distribute a script that tracks users on other webpages.

Netflix: Marvel Dud Among Movies New On Streaming Service This Week

Drake kendrick lamar feud timeline lamar dominates billboard hot 100 with not like us, apple s new chatgpt deal here s what it means for iphone security.

Sean Wright, head of application security at Featurespace, calls the fixes issued in iOS 17.5 “a mixed bag.”

The worst is the kernel flaw, he says. “This could be chained with some of the other vulnerabilities to allow an attacker to gain full access to the device.”

Apple Issues iOS 16.7.8 To Fix Already-Exploited Issue

Alongside iOS 17.5, Apple has issued iOS 16.7.8, fixing two issues, one of which is already being used in real-life attacks. Tracked as CVE-2024-23296, the flaw in RTKit could enable an attacker with arbitrary kernel read and write capability to bypass kernel memory protections. “Apple is aware of a report that this issue may have been exploited,” Apple wrote on its support page .

The iOS 16.7.8 is available for iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, iPhone X, iPad 5th generation, iPad Pro 9.7-inch, and iPad Pro 12.9-inch 1st generation.

Why You Should Update Now To iOS 17.5 Or iOS 16.7.8

It’s been a while since Apple’s last security update, iOS 17.4.1 —released in March—which fixed multiple serious security flaws. The update before that, iOS 17.4, was an emergency patch for issues being used in real life attacks.

The iOS 16.7.8 update is similar as it also patches already-exploited security issues. If you have an older device, updating to iOS 16.7.8 is a no-brainer, given that the flaw is being used in attacks.

While iOS 17.5 doesn’t cover any already-exploited flaws—at least that we know about—some of the issues are serious making it important you update your iPhone as soon as you can.

At the same time, the iOS 17.5 update contains cool new features, including unwanted tracker protection, as well as bug fixes.

The iOS 17.5 update is available for the iPhone XS and later, iPad Pro 12.9-inch 2nd generation and later, iPad Pro 10.5-inch, iPad Pro 11-inch 1st generation and later, iPad Air 3rd generation and later, iPad 6th generation and later and iPad mini 5th generation and later.

If you care about your security, you will need to apply iOS 17.5 or iOS 16.7.8 manually, because Apple’s automatic updates can take a while to reach iPhones. It’s during this time that your device remains open to attack.

Wright says there is no need to panic, but ensure that you update “as soon as you can.”

So what are you waiting for? Go to your iPhone’s Settings > General > Software Update and download and install iOS 17.5 or iOS 16.7.8 now.

Privacy is built in.

Online privacy isn’t just something you should hope for — it’s something you should expect. That’s why Safari comes with industry-leading privacy protection technology built in, including Intelligent Tracking Prevention that identifies trackers and helps prevent them from profiling or following you across the web. Upgrading to iCloud+ gives you even more privacy protections, including the ability to sign up for websites and services without having to share your personal email address.

Intelligent Tracking Prevention

Safari stops trackers in their tracks.

What you browse is no one’s business but your own. Safari has built‑in protections to help stop websites and data-collection companies from watching and profiling you based on your browsing activity. Intelligent Tracking Prevention uses on‑device intelligence to help prevent cross‑site tracking and stops known trackers from using your IP address — making it incredibly difficult to learn who you are and what you’re interested in.

Privacy Report

Safari makes it simple to see how your privacy is protected on all the websites you visit. Click Privacy Report in the Safari menu for a snapshot of cross-site trackers currently prevented from profiling you on the website you’re visiting. Or view a weekly Privacy Report to see how Safari protects you as you browse over time.

Customization

Putting the you in url..

Safari is more customizable than ever. Organize your tabs into Tab Groups so it’s easy to go from one interest to the next. Set a custom background image and fine-tune your browser window with your favourite features — like Reading List, Favorites, iCloud Tabs and Siri Suggestions. And third-party extensions for iPhone, iPad and Mac let you do even more with Safari, so you can browse the way you want across all your devices.

Safari Profiles allow you to separate your history, extensions, Tab Groups, favourites, cookies and more. Quickly switch between profiles for topics you create, like Personal and Work.

Web apps let you save your favourite websites to the Dock on Mac and to the Home Screen on iPhone and iPad. A simplified toolbar and separate settings give you an app-like experience.

Safari Extensions add functionality to your browser to help you explore the web the way you want. Find and add your favorite extensions in the dedicated Safari category on the App Store.

Save and organize your tabs in the way that works best for you. Name your Tab Groups, edit them, and switch among them across devices. You can also share Tab Groups — making planning your next family trip or group project easier and more collaborative.

Smart Tools

Designed to help your work flow..

Built-in tools create a browsing experience that’s far more immersive, intuitive and immediate. Get detailed information about a subject in a photo with just a click, select text within any image, instantly translate an entire web page and quickly take notes wherever you are on a site — without having to switch apps.

Notes is your go-to app to capture any thought. And with the Quick Note feature, you can instantly jot down ideas as you browse websites without having to leave Safari.

Translation

Translate entire web pages with a single click. You can also get translations for text in images and paused video without leaving Safari.

Interact with text in any image on the web using functions like lookup, translate, and copy and paste. 6

Visual Look Up

Quickly learn more about landmarks, works of art, breeds of dogs and more with only a photo or an image you find online. 7 And easily lift the subject of an image from Safari, remove its background and paste it into Messages, Notes or other apps.

Surf safe and sound.

Strong security protections in Safari help keep you safe. Passkeys introduce a safer way to sign in. iCloud Keychain securely stores and autofills passkeys and passwords across all your devices. Safari also notifies you when it encounters suspicious websites and prevents them from loading. Because it loads each web page in a separate process, any harmful code is always confined to a single browser tab so it won’t crash the entire application or access your data. And Safari automatically upgrades sites from HTTP to the more secure HTTPS when available.

Passkeys introduce a more secure and easier way to sign in. No passwords required.

Passkeys are end-to-end encrypted and safe from phishing and data leaks, and they are stronger than all common two-factor authentication types. Thanks to iCloud Keychain, they work across all your Apple devices, and they even work on non-Apple devices.

Learn more about passkeys

Apple Pay and Wallet make checkout as easy as lifting a finger.

Apple Pay is the easiest and most secure way to shop on Safari — allowing you to complete transactions with Face ID or Touch ID on your iPhone or iPad, with Touch ID on your MacBook Pro or MacBook Air, or by double-clicking the side button on your Apple Watch.

Learn more about Apple Pay

With AutoFill, you can easily fill in your previously saved credit card information from the Wallet app during checkout. Your credit card details are never shared, and your transactions are protected with industry-leading security.

Same Safari. Different device.

Safari works seamlessly and syncs your passwords, bookmarks, history, tabs and more across Mac, iPad, iPhone and Apple Watch. And when your Mac, iOS or iPadOS devices are near each other, they can automatically pass what you’re doing in Safari from one device to another using Handoff. You can even copy images, video or text from Safari on your iPhone or iPad, then paste into another app on your nearby Mac — or vice versa.

When you use Safari on multiple devices, your tabs carry over from one Apple device to another. So you can search, shop, work, or browse on your iPhone, then switch to your iPad or Mac and pick up right where you left off.

Save web pages you want to read later by adding them to your Reading List. Then view them on any of your iCloud-connected devices — even if you’re not connected to the internet.

iCloud Keychain securely stores your user names, passkeys, passwords and credit card numbers, and keeps them up to date on your trusted devices. So you can easily sign in to your favourite websites — as well as apps on iOS and iPadOS — and quickly make online purchases.

Designed for developers.

Deep WebKit integration between Mac hardware and macOS allows Safari to deliver the fastest performance and the longest battery life of any browser on the platform, while supporting modern web standards for rich experiences in the browser. WebKit in macOS Sonoma includes optimizations that enable even richer browsing experiences, and give developers more control over styling and layout — allowing for more engaging content.

Make Safari your default browser

Customize your start page, view your browsing privacy report, monitor your saved passwords, use apple pay in safari, view your tabs across all your devices, read the safari user guide, get safari support.

ChatGPT arriving on the Mac in new desktop app from OpenAI ahead of WWDC

Today at OpenAI’s spring update keynote , the company announced that ChatGPT would soon become more easily accessible thanks to a brand new desktop app launching on the Mac.

New Mac app makes ChatGPT more accessible for users

Apple and OpenAI were recently rumored to be striking a partnership ahead of WWDC. This partnership would bring ChatGPT to iOS 18 as a built-in, system-integrated chatbot option.

Ahead of that partnership, OpenAI has announced its own first-party ChatGPT app coming to the Mac. The app is designed to make ChatGPT more easily accessible and perpetually available for users. A very brief preview of the app was shown during the presentation, but more details were shared in a press release .

For both free and paid users, we’re also launching a new ChatGPT desktop app for macOS that is designed to integrate seamlessly into anything you’re doing on your computer. With a simple keyboard shortcut (Option + Space), you can instantly ask ChatGPT a question. You can also take and discuss screenshots directly in the app. You can now have voice conversations with ChatGPT directly from your computer, starting with Voice Mode that has been available in ChatGPT at launch, with GPT-4o’s new audio and video capabilities coming in the future. Whether you want to brainstorm a new idea for your company, prepare for an interview or have a topic you’d like to discuss, tap the headphone icon in the bottom right corner of the desktop app to start a voice conversation. 

ChatGPT for Mac is rolling out today to Plus users, and will come to all free GPT users in the weeks ahead. A Windows app is also planned for later this year.

9to5Mac’s Take

It’s always great to have a new first-party Mac app debut. I always prefer a native app experience over using a web app, and that will be no different with ChatGPT.

Previously, Mac users were limited to using ChatGPT via the web client or a third-party app. For almost a year OpenAI has offered an iPhone app for ChatGPT , but it was unknown whether the AI-powered service would ever receive a dedicated app for the Mac. It’s great to see that change today ahead of hopefully more OpenAI-related Apple news in the weeks ahead.

For Insiders in the Dev Channel who want to be the first to get features gradually rolled out to you , you can turn ON the toggle (shown in the image below) to get the latest updates as they are available via Settings > Windows Update. Over time, we will increase the rollouts of features to everyone with the toggle turned on. Should you keep this toggle off, new features will gradually be rolled out to your device over time once they are ready.

Going forward, we will document changes in Dev Channel builds in two buckets: new features, improvements, and fixes that are being gradually rolled out for Insiders who have turned on the toggle to get the latest updates as they are available and then new features, improvements, and fixes available to everyone in the Dev Channel.

Changes and Improvements gradually being rolled out to the Dev Channel with toggle on*

• This update includes a small set of general improvements and fixes that improve the overall experience for Insiders running this build on their PCs.
• We are introducing a new Game Pass recommendation card on the Settings homepage. The Game Pass recommendation card on Settings Homepage will be shown to you if you actively play games on your PC. As a reminder – the Settings homepage will be shown only on the Home and Pro editions of Windows 11 and if you’re signed into Windows with your Microsoft account.

Fixes for everyone in the Dev Channel

Reminders for Windows Insiders in the Dev Channel

• Updates released to the Dev Channel are based off Windows 11, version 24H2 .
• Features and experiences included in these builds may never get released as we try out different concepts and get feedback. Features may change over time, be removed, or replaced and never get released beyond Windows Insiders. Some of these features and experiences could show up in future Windows releases when they’re ready .
• Many features in the Dev Channel are rolled out using Control Feature Rollout technology , starting with a subset of Insiders and ramping up over time as we monitor feedback to see how they land before pushing them out to everyone in this channel.
• Windows Insiders in the Dev Channel who want to be the first to get features gradually rolled out to you*, you can turn ON the toggle to get the latest updates as they are available via Settings > Windows Update. Over time, we will increase the rollouts of features to everyone with the toggle turned on. Should you keep this toggle off, new features will gradually be rolled out to your device over time once they are ready.
• Because the Dev and Beta Channels represent parallel development paths from our engineers, there may be cases where features and experiences show up in the Beta Channel first.
• Check out Flight Hub for a complete look at what build is in which Insider channel.
• Copilot in Windows** in preview is being rolled out gradually to Windows Insiders in select global markets. The initial markets for the Copilot in Windows preview include North America, United Kingdom and parts of Asia and South America. It is our intention to add additional markets over time.

Thanks, Amanda & Brandon

How to download and install macOS

Download and install current or previous versions of the Mac operating system on compatible Mac computers.

To maintain your computer's security, stability, and compatibility, Apple recommends using the latest macOS that is compatible with your Mac. macOS updates and upgrades also include the latest features and built-in apps such as Safari.

Use Software Update

Use macos recovery, use the app store.

Use a web browser

Use a bootable installer

If you need help.

Software Update is the fastest and easiest way to get macOS updates and upgrades, and it can use less storage space to download and install them.

Software Update shows only software that is compatible with your Mac. If Software Update says that your Mac is up to date, then no new software is currently available for your Mac model.

How to update macOS using Software Update

If you want to reinstall macOS, or your Mac doesn't start up all the way because it doesn't have a working operating system, you can use the built-in Recovery system to reinstall macOS.

How to reinstall macOS from macOS Recovery

To download macOS from the App Store, you must download from a Mac that is compatible with that macOS. If your Mac isn't compatible, the App Store dims the Get button, says that the macOS is not compatible with this device, or says that the requested version of macOS is not available.

Use these links to find macOS in the App Store. If these links don't work as expected, try again using Safari, which is in your Applications folder.

Monterey 12

Catalina 10.15

Mojave 10.14

High Sierra 10.13

Click the Get button in the App Store to begin downloading. Software Update might open and ask you to download from there.

After downloading to your Applications folder, the installer opens automatically. Follow the onscreen installation instructions. Or quit without installing to leave the installer in your Applications folder for later use.

Use a web browser for older versions

These older macOS versions are available as disk images that you can download using your web browser. To get the installer from the disk image, you must use a Mac that is compatible with that macOS.

Use these links to download a macOS disk image (.dmg) file. If these links don't work as expected, try again using Safari, which is in your Applications folder.

Sierra 10.12

El Capitan 10.11

Yosemite 10.10

Mountain Lion 10.8

Double-click the .dmg file to open it and see the package (.pkg) file within.

Double-click the .pkg file, then follow the onscreen instructions to install the macOS installer into your Applications folder.

Open your Applications folder and double-click the macOS installer, named Install [ Version Name ]. Follow the onscreen installation instructions.

A bootable installer can be useful if you want to install macOS on multiple computers without downloading the installer each time, or when you can't install using macOS Recovery or the other methods.

To download an installer suitable for creating a bootable installer, use the App Store or use a web browser to download from a compatible Mac. The Mac must also be using macOS High Sierra or later, the latest version of macOS Sierra, or the latest version of OS X El Capitan.

How to create a bootable installer for macOS

If an error occurred while updating or installing macOS

If you need more storage space to download or install

If your Mac doesn't start up all the way
