I can't seem to run netflix properly after upgrading to 5.1. I'm still running 10.6.8 and whenever I watch netflix on safari in the minimized mode (not full screen), I get choppy video (not audio). As soon as I go into full screen it's fine. I'm almost 99 percent positive it has to do with safari specifically after the 5.1 update because netflix runs fine in both modes (full screen and non-full screen) on both firefox and google chrome. Anyone else having this kind of trouble?
Well I own a macbook white that has lion on it...and netflix plays perfectly fine...im assuming its just an issue with 10.6.8 and silverlight. I'm not ready to upgrade my imac to lion yet, so ill just deal with it. I'm glad to hear that its not just an issue im having...but yeah..its fine with the lion os.
I had this problem repeatedly and for a long time. An upgrade to Lion fixed everything. Before Lion, I was able to solve this by unchecking the "atuomatic graphics switching" box in System Preferences > Hardware > Energy Saver, but after Lion, I was able to re-check this box and everything works as it should.
When the update to Safari 5.1 happened I was frothingly angry, as under 10.6.8 it's a total dog -- lots of things just fail to work properly and I particularly loath 'full screen' in this context (fine for writing novels, and iPhoto, GarageBand, etc., but for something as mundane as web browsing I don't want to feel that isolated).
I've often suspected that later versions of MacOS have deliberate annoyances in them to which fixes are promised in the next (paid for) update, but this was such an obvious Lion-shove that I reacted strongly against it and googled 'Safari 5.1 revert". Masses of results -- I wasn't alone. Close to the top was the MacOS Hints forum with the procedure above on this page:
Worked like a charm...Though I do hope they make the next versions more stable so I can at least keep getting updates. On a side note, my macbook white has lion on it and its extremely glitchy. Ill get pixelated safari screens that sometimes lock my comp up completely...very sad stuff.
your terminal command helped me resolve this issue. thanks. Now, for various reasons, i need to reverse this process. i tried simply checking for software updates but nothing is there. this was my first time using terminal and have no idea how to reverse it.
This is mark@sbc -- the AppleID used for my original post has fallen foul of the ill-conceived, Machiavellian, intransigent, user-hostile, tangled mess of festering puss that passes for the AppleID database, so I now have a different username... deep breath.
I'd suggest that you simply (ha!) install the most recent version of Safari. Since Apple have now decided to be as obstructive and bloody-minded as possible about the simplest things (such as this), your best bet is to download and install 'Safari 5.1.7 for Snow Leopard' from . This will create a receipt, and should cause Software Update to offer you the latest version for your system (presumably 10.8.x) when you next run it after this.
Slightly OT, but I've been messing with latest version of Safari under ML on a couple of new iMacs, and it's very impressive -- quite excellent, in fact. Whether this applies to older machines upgraded with ML I've no idea, but if it's like Lion, probably not. It's really irritating that so much is done so well, yet lots else is such a mess. So far, a good job overall, though.
