Upgrade Safari Browser To Latest Version
Jun 23, 2003 About Safari for Mac Safari is a web browser developed by Apple Computer, Inc. And available as part of its Mac OS X operating system. It was included as the default browser in Mac OS X v10.3 (Panther) and is the only browser bundled with Mac OS X v10.4 (Tiger). Nearly 50% of OS X users are still on 10.6 🙂 Apple is still issuing security updates for 10.6, however Safari 6 (with numerous patches) is only for later OS versions. So you should be using Firefox as it's at 17.0 now and receives attention and updates, unlike Safari 5.04 which isn't.
- Choose System Preferences from the Apple menu , then click Software Update to check for updates.
- If any updates are available, click the Update Now button to install them. Or click “More info” to see details about each update and select specific updates to install. You might be asked to enter your administrator password.
- When Software Update says that your Mac is up to date, the installed version of macOS and all of its apps are also up to date. That includes Safari, Music, Photos, Books, Messages, Mail, Calendar, and FaceTime.
- To automatically install future updates, including for apps that you got from the App Store, select “Automatically keep my Mac up to date.” Your Mac will notify you when updates require it to restart, so you can always choose to install those later.
