Hi,
I downloaded safari 5.1.9 and installed to update my safari 5.02, when launched safari it still showed it was 5.02. I tried looking for what I installed and cannot fint it anywhere. All I have is files about safari. What I do not understand it went through the procedures of installing when finished it tells me installation was successful. Where do I look please.
Thank you

It should be in the main HD/Applications folder, along with Mail, App Store, Quicktime etc

If you type safari using spotlight (top right corner magnifying glasses), it'll list all safari apps. Hold the command key on the keyboard and click the updated Safari if shown on spotlight search. It'll take you directly where the app is located (morethan likely in the Application folder). If it doesnt show on spotlight, you might have to run the .dmg file again to reinstall.
Hi,
I clicked on Spotlight found Safari, the other thing I id was go in System Preferences and clicked on Software Update and it showed all the software that is installed and all the updates. The one thing I am puzzled about is why when I click "About Safari" it shows 5.02 and yet all the updates are installed except 5.1.9 which appears to be there in Spotlight and in Software Update, very puzzling. By the way it is in applications, I was looking for an additional Safari. Am I correct in assuming it has been updating but not changing "About Safari.
Very puzzling an on this note my many, many thanks to all you good people helping reprobates like me
THANK YOU

If you open Safari from Macintosh HD/Applications and Safari - About Safari shows 5.0.2 - then the update didn't work.
You can also highlight the Safari application in the folder & choose Finder - File - Get Info
The version will be shown in the General section of the info window.
Are you opening Safari from your Dock? If so, do as andyBall advises, and open it directly from your Applications folder. Then see which verion it is.
Hello Andy,
It worked, I followed your instructions and it has worked, very many thanks.
THANKS TO ALL OF YOU
