Safari coming to Windows.

[navjotjsingh]

But atleast in public beta simple first glance bugs should have been ironed out. Other companies do a private beta before a public beta to sort the first glance look bugs. Safari has bugs which can be noticed even while loading the browser at first place...so it seems that the public beta was first run by a end user rather than a developer at apple that they failed to even sort simple font bug before making it public!!

imple enter 'apple' and hit Enter to go to *www.apple.com/.
There is another cool feature in Safari that isn't there in any other browser.

Check your facts first. This feature has been in Opera for ages

 

[aryayush]

Check your English first. You misquoted me. The feature that I was talking about was after the sentences you chose to quote. But anyway, even that feature is there in Opera, as I only learned now, so yeah, my facts were wrong in this case.

No need for any ad-blocking software. ever.

Edit- This is for Mozilla browsers and Safari.

Sweet! Thank you for this one, buddy. Never knew about it.

 

[eddie]

what I want is something acting like a filtering proxxy between the net and my PC. so I can block ads in IE, Opera etc.

Proxomitron? Also look for its alternatives for more choices.

 

[kumarmohit]

Proxomitron is too hard to configure, lets see if there are alternatives.

According to Apple CEO Steve Jobs,
"Microsoft’s Internet Explorer has 78 percent of the market, and Firefox another 15 percent".
delivered at the opening keynote at Apple’s WorldWide Developers Conference in San Francisco on June 10.

One of the more annoying things about the Safari Beta 3 is the inability to add search providers to the search box in the top right. At least there’s a good reason for limiting choice: Money.

# Does Google pay less to Mozilla since it allows you to add other search providers?
# What’s Google paying Microsoft to be included in IE?
# If Safari takes off will Mozilla get less revenue from Google?
# Does Apple have an obligation to at least allow other search providers in Safari?

Apple is right.......Safari is faster than Firefox & IE..........

I think that we can not use any other search engine in Safari else than Google & Yahoo in that box near the Adress bar.......Can we?

this monster of a browser will dominate when it's hatched out completely watch out others bussiness is abt 2 pick up

 

[gxsaurav]

Well, then we will see it after 4 years when it provides toolbar customisation.

 

[aryayush]

You know what is the problem is with you guys, you stick to one tiny little thing that you consider a flaw and then keep hammering it on and on to drive your personal hate propaganda into other people's heads. Sick!

No, unfortunately you cannot.

I more than you.

I would hate to disagree.

Offtopic: Is coverflow in iTunes in Windows this slow and choppy? I'm using Vista Ultimate, P3 3.0Ghz, 1GB RAM...

 

[gxsaurav]

Well, as You know I don't have a big library but 512X512 pixel Cover art was slow here. Goobi, do yourself a favor & use WMP or Winamp on Windows. I don't know how hard it is for Apple to develop a decent application for Windows. iTunes, Safari & Quicktime all sux here & is very slow.

 

[chesss]

Safari speed claim under the microscope - from a person who knows what he is talking about

 

[goobimama]

Winamp takes ages to start and WMP looks a bit too vibrant and flashy for my tastes. It takes away the focus of the app, songs.
I don't really like iTunes for a music player in Windows, but it organises my music into Artist > Album quite well...

 

[gxsaurav]

Winamp takes ages to start

Are you serious . No really , if you can make a video from phone or digicam plz make so. Here it starts within 1 second.

 

[iMav]

well winamp on my vista also lags enormously

 

[mak1012]

Winamp is good in speed but itunes library is best....u just cant compare it...at least u dont have to drag n drop... and u can search is there in milisecond.

 

[sakumar79]

Wow, I opened this thread to see if there was anything new in Safari last few days, and I see suddenly Winamp and itunes have somehow entered the topic!!!

Anyway, I was wondering if anyone has any idea when the final release may be available... I am looking forward to trying it out...Currently use Opera and love it, but I am open to new alternatives (already tried Firefox and disliked it)... BTW, does Safari have issues with Java, Flash and Shockwave? Are plugins available for download or do they come integrated in the main app download, or are the plugins under work or something?

[comrade]

me too expecting the date...
already tried opera and disliked it..hope atleast this one will be better.
