Hi Baz Safari does this from time to time ( sadly) Have you shut your computer down and restarted? Debi

Hi Baz could need updating on the OS run the Software Update in the System Preferences, and also try deleting the pref's file from the HD/User/xxx/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist Sorry can't hang around but this should help :))

I can Tina. You can go from the base units,,, Mac Mini, these are 61/4 ins square, and are really great. Make sure you get one with a Super Drive, this will allow you to burn to DVD as well as CD. Priced around £400. Next is the IMAC, an all in one unit, the same applies with this one as well. Price though around £800. Best to go to the Apple Mac website. From here they get bigger and bigger, and also more and more expensive.

Good thanks Baz. The problem you have with the Mac aside, would you recommend one..my daughter is in the multi media industry and says they are by far the best for the nature of her work. She is desperate for one. Tina x

Have a look at the Laptops TM, my son uses them as well as ther 'big' ones, and he swears by them. Might see you over there, it's only over the bridge from me.

Hi Baz I have a Mac I tend to find that Safari really only tends to shut on the GR site strangely enough. Does it quit on other sites or just this one? x lesley

Essex Baz

Essex Baz Report 4 Mar 2007 22:07

Hello Lesley, it 's only on this site. I sat here with it writing for about 6 hours yesterday, and was all OK , but today, on this site, it's shut down about 6 times

Hi Baz I think it must be something to do with GR then, when I use other sites it shuts down rarely. At first, I thought it may have been that I was spending more time on GR than other sites and the odds were that it would shut down on here, however, I haven't been on GR much lately and I'm not finding the same problems. I seem to have a few issues with GR. I must admit I love my Mac and can't ever see myself going back to a pc. I have so little problems with my computer now. x lesley

Hiya MM, this is strange, it's never happened before, and so far it's been absolutely perfect, this is what makes me mad lol

Essex Baz

Essex Baz Report 4 Mar 2007 22:20

Me too Lesley, I definately won't be going back to a PC now. xx

HA HA, You carry on Lesley, you sound as though you like it lol, passionate in fact. I make you right as it happens, I feel the same way about my dogs , and my computer as well lol. I'd be totally lost now without it. Everything about the Mac is just so fine, makes a PC look a bit pre-historic eh . xx
