Sorry, brain slip up there. Yosemite was the one I forgot. Thank you very much for the (BOTH) clarification.
Got a tip for us?

Apple Releases Safari 9 for OS X Yosemite and Mavericks Users

The status bar seems to have gone walkabout. It's still turned on in the View menu but isn't showing up.
Edit: It seems that "status bar" may now be a new term for "popup in bottom left corner that only appears when you hover over a link". It's therefore inconsistent when compared with the status bar in, say, Finder.

My initial experience of this Safari update (in Yosemite, late-2009 MBP) is that it's disabled shortcuts with Cmd 1-9 for Bookmarks Bar websites, and that the audio in videos on news websites stops after about a minute. Now I think I might wait a few days before updating the whole OS to El Capitan.
I'm having exact the same issues... It's even in my updated list 9 times! But the app store still says I need to update and the version is stil safari 8.
Also using Yosemite btw, 10.10.5
Seems like the default styles for tables have changed. Webalizer suddenly looks... flatter.
And having quite some blank page issue and shifted page issue where the top of any webpage is cut off. Hope that goes away with time.
Wow, and going to fullscreen with javascript:document.documentElement.webkitRequestFullScreen() looks crazy! But still works.
PS: Mavericks.

Using Command+1 to 9 is my favorite way to navigate my favorite tabs, but that's not working on Safari 9 on Yosemite for me. Anyone else?
EDIT: NM, just realized now it can be turned on/off in preferences. Word.

I'm also having this issue. Does someone has a solution for this.
=Solved! I cleared the content in Library/Updates and the update ran perfectly.

Where is the Top Sites view? Safari 9 > Yosemite. ??
Did the update and now my Top Sites view is gone. I notice straight because I always press CMD + X to view that page. Strange thing. When I close every tab the default view of the browser is still the Top Sites layout but there is no Menu bar item anymore.
****ing Apple!

It's also new that the older version (Mavericks in this case) gets literally none of the new features. Have to wonder why they can carry over the tab muting to 10.10 but not 10.9.

Also, side note: Is Apple no longer supplying system security updates to older versions? There's no update today (for 10.9.5) despite the huge list of patches in El Cap.
Thanks @DonP for your way of thinking but the main goal here is to work with my keyboard shortcuts. I have zero icons on my Safari UI bar, I've removed them all because I never use them before.
By pressing my custom keyboard shortcuts CMD + X , I can navigate fast to a plain Safari Top Sites screen with all my favorite web icons listed there.
Update:
I think I noticed what the problem is. In Safari 5 to 8 the Top Sites view + Favorites view was just a single page where you could toggle between both views. Now in Safari 9 it looks like View Top Sites and View Favorites are both unique pages in Safari 9.
When you go to the Bookmark item on the top nav bar you'll see the first item in the list is either View Top sites or View Favorites depending on what page (view) you visited last.
Still it's kinda buggy.. Now I listed View Favorites as a custom keyboard shortcut but still it doesn't work very pretty. Sometimes it works, other times I hear that blocking error sound that there is no function attached to the keys I'm pressing.
Very annoying when you're so used to pressing a shortcut that isn't there anymore.
I hope Apple will fix this bug very soon.

Mavericks should have security patch support until the release of OS X 10.12.0.
I hope this is a sign that Apple will be going back to updating applications to the same level across the supported OS's (something they used to do, long ago).
Mountain Lion is no longer getting updates now that El Cap has started shipping.

That's what I thought, but there's no Security Update 2015-007 as one would expect for 10.9.5 (and 10.10.5) users as has been the case with many previous x.0 and x.x releases. 10.8 support definitively ended today, but usually Apple releases patches for the old versions after the release of the current version (10.11 in this case) since the vulnerabilities are then disclosed.
