Not a photoshop problem.

Please, Mac users, can someone explain why when i select Safari as my web browser, I get Yahoo. I was thinking of Safari as Macs chosen browser.

Re: safari
Hi James,

Happy New Year.

Open Safari and go to Safari>Preferences>General. Here you can set your default web browser and your preferred home page. Setting your preferred home page (I use Google but you can use any website you wish. I believe that some people use a site called 'How to Cheat in Photoshop' as their home page!) means that it will not default to Yahoo when you open Safari.

Just a tip for future reference.
If you download and install any software from the net and it gives you the option, always check the box by "Custom Install".
Some software installs a toolbar and sets your homepage to yahoo or something similar when you use "Express Install".
Not sure if it's true for Macs as well as pc's.

Re: safari
Thanks, Dooley, but Macs don't do that. They're far too polite.

Thank you Gordon. That's given Yahoo the boot.
