Safari 3.0 beta
Table of Contents
Back in June, Apple released a beta version of their Safari 3.0 web browser for Mac and Windows. The browser received a great deal of attention due to its availability for Windows and our customers definitely noticed. We are seeing people logging into ClickTime every day with beta versions of Safari.
Officially, we don't support beta versions of browsers and there's a good reason why. Beta versions of web browsers typically have bugs that impair usability and the current beta version of Safari is no exception. We like playing with new tech toys just like many of you do, but we don't want this new technology to interfere with your ability to be productive. We strongly recommend you use a web browser from our supported list.
Of course, we're already testing ClickTime using the beta version of Safari 3.0 to detect any issues. We're currently aware of the following bugs with the current Safari beta version (3.0.3) when used with ClickTime:
- The stopwatch feature may not work properly.
- An error can occur when running reports due to Safari's incorrect handling of the date range selector.
- Errors can occur when saving time due to issues selecting tasks in the time entry interface.
We have reported these bugs to Apple and look forward to a new release of Safari that fixes the problems.
Until Safari 3.0 is finalized, we recommend you use Safari 2.0 or an alternative web browser.
