For some reason out of no where Safari opens but is completely unresponsive and all I get is a spinning beach ball. Luckily I have firefox, but after using safari for so long I really miss it. So my question is how can I get it working again? If I just go into my app folder and pull it into my trashcan will that delete it? Because I have tried that then redownloaded it from the apple website and still nothing. Any advice?
Got a tip for us?

itz the beta, same thing happened to me and i had to build a browser through xcode to get back online, this has occured to countless of ppl
yea its been happening to me to im on beta i like it but the beach ball thing everyonce in a while sucks... is there a way to remedy this? or should i just install the old safari can i even do that?
So what do I do know? I really liked the new sarfari beta but will def be more than happy to go back to the old safari, especially after using firefox for a few days. If I download the old safari will it work? and what would I have done if I didnt have firefox (I would of had no way of getting online)?
I am trying to uninstall the Safari Beta and re install Safari 3 but it wont let me. It says that there is already a version of safari installed despite dragging and dropping safari beta into the trash, emptying the trash, and restarting computer. Any advice?
In the Beta download I'm sure there is an uninstall program included. Correct me if I'm wrong.
