Q: After I installed Mac OS X Snow Leopard, I cannot open Gmail.  What shall I do?

I installed OSX 10.6.5 (Snow Leopard) but Safari 5 still requests this OSX.

AOL mail and other applications seem working fine just Gmail does not.  

Let me know what I should do.

I can check my Gmail in Fire Fox but I prefer Safari.


I am not very good with these technologies.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.3), AOL mail works fine but not Gmail

    Is there a reason that you haven't updated to OS X 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.10.

    What exactly happens when you use Safari to access gmail.com ?.

    The Apple Store recommended Snow Leopard because this is 1/10 of the price.

    Snow Leopard is installed (because the screen has changed) but Safari does not recognize it.

    When I access Safari, about 80% progress to open but does not go any farther.

    Before Snow Leopard installation, everything was working fine.

    Currently, I can use any applications through Safari except Gmail. 

     

    Thank you for your response.

    Does Apple menu - About This Mac show 10.6.5 or 10.6.8 ?.

     

    If it's not 10.6.8, use Apple menu - Software Update & install OS X 10.6.8, then run it again & install Safari 5.1.10.

     

    Once you have Safari 5.1.10 - check gmail again... if it is still a problem, test in a Guest user account.
