the tone is an indication of my level of frustration since this update went in this morning. Before this, I had minor issues that could be worked around. Not so with this update. Being forced to restart my macbook because of a browser issue is entirely unacceptable. I expect stuff like this in the development product (Webkit) but not in a finished release to market product.
If you find my attitude a bit strong, I apologize for that. I am normally a lot more patient about things, but having 3 projects I was working on get dumped (and losing about a days worth of work) tends to put a fine edge on my anger. anyway, I hope someone over at the development team looks at this and realizes how bad this just got. -eric On Oct 23, 2013, at 8:39 PM, Danny Noonan wrote: > I'm sure I'd hurry up after a message tone like that. > > When Safari is fixed perhaps google negotiation skills and effective > communication skills. > > Good luck. > > > Danny. > Sent from my iPhone > >> On 24 Oct 2013, at 2:32 pm, eric oyen <eric.o...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >> The new Safari 6.1 went on my Lion system today and now some voiceover >> issues have developed. >> >> 1.
