prcmelo-rj Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 I have a very strange problem with safari 4... see... Link to comment
Timan Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 For mac users.On Mac OS X you can disable the Tabs on Top feature with the following Terminal command:defaults write com.apple.Safari DebugSafari4TabBarIsOnTop falseEnable:defaults delete com.apple.Safari DebugSafari4TabBarIsOnTopDisabling the feature will give you the classic tab bar appearance of Safari 3.Will get rid of the nasty tabs.

xfifteen Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 So it looks nice, has some nice features, but it uses 190MB RAM right now with only one tab open...(But... it is only a beta!) Link to comment
Björn Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 For mac users.Will get rid of the nasty tabs.Can you post a screenshot of safari 4 under Leopard with tabs on top disabled? Link to comment

Björn Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 Yeah, sometimes it freezes the whole PC... Link to comment
The iApple Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 (edited) Hmmm, it has a chrome taste. Edited February 25, 2009 by Mauintosh Link to comment
lucasmb Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 (edited) Me hopes that it is themeable (sp.) like Google chrome. How do you change the font for the Bookmarks bar? Edited February 24, 2009 by lucasmb Link to comment
schmrom Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 Some shots from Mac OS: Apple Page: Top Sites: Bookmarks: Link to comment
mvosx1094 Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 I haven't installed it yet. Love the new features and performance improvements but i hate it that the fact they got rid of the OS X styled GUI. I wish they can out an option in preferences called "Themes" 4 saying Aqua, Graphite, Windows Aqua, Windows Graphite, and a tick box enabling/disabling the up/down arrows to be together Link to comment
mvosx1094 Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 I installed it, tested it and I must say, afar from the GUI, it's great. However, it's not properly skinned if you use WindowBlinds. The images are messed up and everything, however it looks OK if you use a visual style. Though now it looks more like something out of Google rather than from Apple, animations have been cut out like when saving passwords or adding a bookmark. The progress bar in the address bar was taken out and instead you have to look at a throber to the right of the address. (This is a minor one)Even fonts like Lucida Grande aren't used in the bookmarks bar so for example if ya use the Apple logo character for your main bookmarks, in Windows it appears as the Unknown character box.So far, give it a 4 star for speed, 5 for new features, but 3 for new GUI.

username3d3 Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 (edited) When I installed it on my computer using a visual style, the MaxMinClose buttons have a white orb around the edges.I do however love the new design. I also think that it's much more CPU than previous versions. Maybe this is due to the new coverflow features and bookmarks. It is still lovely though!Also, did anybody notice that they got alot of the new design from Google Chrome? Edited February 25, 2009 by username3d3 Link to comment
mvosx1094 Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 dude, yeah, for the Windows Version though. If ya have Mac OS X Leopard it looks like how it should but other wise Apple gave Windows a Fast Compass but the looks of something very Googly Link to comment
The iApple Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 (edited) Referring to the GUI area: I hate Apple, they made Safari 4 more 'Window-ish' for Windows Users :/ They better don't screw iTunes to. Oh well, in 367 days im going to have my Macbook Referring to the performance area: OK, It's Safari b*tch! Im speechless, love the 'Top Site' feature, it kinda remembers me of the American Idol commercials. It's faster, better stronger Screw Firefox 3 (for now xD) PS: hmmm, something corious is that Safari 4 is more stable, like it used to be back in my old PC (L) Edited February 25, 2009 by Mauintosh Link to comment

Husaini HB Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 For mac users.Will get rid of the nasty tabs.Sorry still not works, would you please tell me how to do it, I just copy paste from yours and hit enter it says didn't find the command, thank's Timan Link to comment
yorkey Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 I don't like the style at all. The tabs suck and while some features are great like Top Sites and bookmarks cover flow, the rest I don't like. Bring back the Leopard ! Link to comment
DZGH_Operator Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 I like the new native look for Windows, but it looks a lot like chrome with those two buttons next to the search bar.But I do really love the tabs in the titlebar because it saves a lot of space.One bad bug tho: Bookmarks do not work on Windows Vista. I can't import them and save new ones, they just don't show up... Link to comment
xfifteen Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 (edited) One bad bug tho: Bookmarks do not work on Windows Vista. I can't import them and save new ones, they just don't show up... Hmm, odd... I'm on Vista now and I just added new bookmarks to my bookmark bar... What I also like is, when there's a star indicated on one of your top sites, it means that the site's been updated. This is handy to follow blogs, news sites or Facebook Edited February 25, 2009 by xfifteen Link to comment

kjohnson Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 Staying with the older Safari 4 developer preview and/or Safari 3.2.2. I like Chrome as Chrome. I like Safari as Safari. I don't like Safari as Chrome (ugly-fied) for Windows. Apple's making a habit of blowing things of late... Link to comment

I do want to believe that apple still believes in choice. Link to comment
