Alright!

 

So I managed to get flash to load up in safari by running safari in rosetta mode. I haven't noticed any change in performance from what was reported in using rosetta with SSE3- which by the way, I'm using.

 

My question is-

 

If I was able to run Safari with Flash using Rosetta SSE3 then why the heck can't I run in normal mode?

 

All other browsers work flawlessly- Firefox, IE, Opera etc ... but safari.

Other than that- all programs work perfectly including MS Office 2004-OSX, Appleworks 6, Adobe CS2, Macromedia Studio 8 excluding ShapeShifter ... heck even the HP PSC 2510xi Printer Installer works with all functions enabled.

 

-Over & Out-

 

**** UPDATED ****

 

I have managed to solve the problem with Safari and Flash [without using Rosetta] - Read On:

 

Download the latest update package from the apple website [10.4.3] -HERE

 

DO NOT INSTALL THE PACKAGE - All you need to do is view the contents and locate Archive.pax.gz ... Ungzip this file and you should now have a folder Archive on your desktop ...

 

Exit Safari- if it's loaded then head on to your applications folder and drag the Safari icon to the trash bin.

[ Safari is now deleted - Old Version ]

 

Now cruise on into the Arhive folder located on your desktop and you will find Safari in the Applications folder- Drag the Safari icon into your Applications folder that is located on your system disk [where the old safari was]

 

Run Safari and load 2advanced.com and Voila- Flash is working at its best!

 

The new Safari version should be 2.0.2 [416.12] in order for flash to work.

 

What's funny is that the update package was meant for the real mac-ppc and it seems and from the results of this safari update- they're cross-compatible which is good news.

 

Next on my list- Nvidia as I would like to really utilize the power of the 6800Ultra I have lying around somewhere.

 

 

Cheerio!
