Safari 6 download

Hi everyone,


I just saw the news about the new Safari 6, and i would like to download it, BUT I CAN'T FIND ANY BUTTON OR LINK TO DOWNLOAD IT!!!

And i can't find it on my Software update because i deleted it few weeks ago.


I would really appreciate if someone could post a direct link for it 🙂

Thanks,

I am looking to deploy Safari 6 via ARD to a number of systems BUT I do not want to use the Update Software Unix commands or via Software Update on the individual systems. My desired method, which worked just fine with earlier versions, was to download the Safari installer and then push the package out to the systems to actully install it on those system.


As of a few minutes ago this is not an available option because, as is stated above, Apple has not put an actual Safari Installer available as a standalone package anywhere on their web site.


As an alternative, has anyone tried installing Safari 6 on a system and then copying Safari 6 from the Applications folder and pasting it via ARD into a different system? If so, did it work ok?


I will also be sending out an e-mail to our Higher Ed System Engineer to see if he has any other ideas. If I hear anything useful I will pass it on here.

The easy answer...


1) Open Terminal.app

2) sudo softwareupdate -d Safari6Lion-6

3) Look in /Library/Updates and take the PKG


The more complicated... use WireShark to find the URL that command line Software Update is using. 🙂

Above is one long line.

Joe that'll definitely not work. Safari 6 also needs to update WebKit and Javascript frameworks as well as sync services libraries...


Josh, your URL had a space in it, that was tripping me up, here it is without the space:

This should download the package without needing to run the command line to get it.

Then you can use that to deploy via ARD, of course maybe waiting a week for any surprise bugs might be a good idea before deploying 😉
