Downloads are incomplete - the downloaded file has a ".part" suffix. Happens trying to download a pdf attachment from webmail and downloading software from websites. I prefer Firefox to Safari for Mac and have used it for years. Downloaded new copy of Ver 5.0.1 using Safari as couldn't with Firefox would not.
