(These are visible in /Library/Application Enhancers.) So my initial recommendation was, let's at least try uninstalling these and then try again. So I asked for the crash log, which Rich very obligingly sent along, and the very first thing I observed is that he's using several "haxies" - Mighty Mouse, LCC Scroll Enhancer, and the Application Enhancer framework. I'm using a PowerMac G5 dual 2 GHZ with 3.5 GB of memory.
Winamp for mac 10.4.11 update#
Note that I've never encountered a serious problem with an OSX update until now. I'd be interested if others are having this problem.
The upgraded Safari 3 now crashes on launch. I've just upgraded (using the combo updater) from OSX 10.4.10 to 10.4.11. There might still be a crash, but let's eliminate anything that might be unfairly sideswiping Safari first, so we can track it down more reasonably. Yes! Uninstall it, log out and in, and then let's see how we go. Now I am trying to see if I can uninstall it. The only "possible culprit" is that I have installed an additional "hack" to Safari, an additional Tab button being added to Safari's Address Bar. I am not sure what went wrong, I have peformed the pre and post OS update procedures (repair permission, unplug everything etc). I have repair permission, use Single User mode with no avail, still quit unexpectedly. I updated my G4 PowerBook 1.33ghz to OS X v10.4.11, everything seems well after restart, but the new Safari cannot even be launched, once click in the Dock, the "unexpected quit" message will pop out. (James' persistence in tracking this down is really commendable.)

InputManagers is a key place to suspect that such software may reside. As James' case shows, you can quite innocently, honestly, and reasonably believe you have "no third-party software added to Safari", and be wrong. Stay tuned for more on that, as we learn more.) If you've installed 10.4.11 and Safari is crashing, the very first thing to do is clear out your InputManagers folders (both in your own Library and in the top-level /Library), log out and log back in, and try again. (This loophole is, to some extent, tightened in Leopard - though it does not seem to be completely closed.
Winamp for mac 10.4.11 code#
They use a security loophole to reach right into your applications' code and change that code as the application starts up. As we have warned in the past, Input Managers are tricky beasts. James was using an InputManager to inject modified functionality into Safari (in this case, it was Speed Download). This is very troubling.īut then it turned out that third-party software was to blame. I have no third party software added to Safari at all. Every single time I click the red close box in the last open window within Safari, Safari will crash.
It is perfectly believable that there is some serious crashing bug in Safari 3 on Tiger, but before testing, please do make sure you are not using anything that might cause an incompatibility.Īfter installing the latest 10.4.11 update (and security updates), I found a new bug in Safari 3.
But in every case, so far, third-party add-ons have been present.
We've received several reports from Tiger users that after updating to 10.4.11, Safari 3 (which is now included "for real" and no longer an optional beta add-on) crashes constantly.
