I have a Mac with OS X Snow Leopard and haven't yet upgraded to Lion but as a recent Apple System Update it said it had an update to Safari. It installed Safari as part of that update process but now Safari won't open at all. When I click on it it bounces in the dock like it's opening and even I go up to the Apple menu and select Force Quit it is listed as being open but yet Safari itself never appears to fully open. For example there is no actual window/web browser.
I even went to Apple's website to redownload Safari and made sure I selected the Snow Leopard version and did a reinstall but it still won't open.
Any idea of how I can fix it? I use Firefox a lot but still like to use Safari since it syncs with my iPhone bookmarks.
