In Firefox 4 on Mac OS X 10.6.7, FF4 by defaults disables the themes that are not compatbile with Firefox4 (In thumbnail mode). The above OS Integration URL has many themes. No need of going to each theme page.

I have the same problem and have been unable to find a solution. I run Chrome on two Macs with 10.6 and it's great. I have a Mac Mini running 10.7 and Chrome is completely unusable. I've switched to Safari on that machine, but I test Chrome every once in a while and as far as I can tell things are getting worse, not better.

Initially, it was just very slow. Now it hangs and crashes. That machine has 8 Gb of memory, compared to 4 for both of the others, so that's not the issue. Someone suggested turning off the pre-fetching, but that didn't help. There is also a beta release of Chrome called 'canary', which runs no better and has more bugs. It's hard the believe there's enough difference in the operatings systems to cause such a degredation in performace, so I'm sure it's something very subtle and silly, but as far as I can tell, no one is working on it very hard.

If you find a solution, let us know. I really prefer Chrome.

I primarily like Chrome because I often have to work with (underpowered) PCs at work and I like using the same browser everywhere I go. Modio 3.0 for mac. Chrome is by far the most efficient browser on slow PCs, while Safari kind of drags.

Firefox would be another option, but they went through a period when it it was *fantastically* slow, which put me off forever. There are also a couple of Chrome features I really like: 1. I really like the integrated address and search bar. Now that I'm used to it, when I use Safari, I'm always forgettting and typing search strings in the address bar and getting errors. I like the fact that Chrome will automatically detect and translate pages in foreign languages.

The bottom line is that I'm used to it and I like using it and it's nominally supported for OSX, so I'd like to see it working. It works great on my two Macs with 10.6, so it's reasonable to think that almost a year they could have gotten it to work with 10.7. I assume that this is probably Google's fault rather than Apples, but I'd like to see evidence that *someone* is working on it. Ejpre wrote: 1. I really like the integrated address and search bar.

Now that I'm used to it, when I use Safari, I'm always forgettting and typing search strings in the address bar and getting errors. That is coming to Safari in. I like the fact that Chrome will automatically detect and translate pages in foreign languages. There is a Safari extension for that. It isn't automatic however.

People are aware of it but it is likely to be easier to Google to fix their code than Apple to fix the kernel or the video driver. There are a lot of powerful features coming to Safari that Google will have to play catch up on.

I suggest taking another look at Safari when Mountain Lion comes out. Personally, I'm trying to wean myself from Google with search engines like,,. Google is getting less and less useful as it tries to be helpful and fixes my precise spelling to be something that will return more results from its advertising customers. Thanks for the information Grant! I know that probably you have all thought of this, but saw a blog with this on it, tried it on my Air and it SEEMS that Chrome is using less CPU% and maybe running a little faster!
