You might be missing some of your old plugins, or simply wanting to install Shockwave. Either way, with Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard – You’re going to need Safari back in 32-bit mode to handle the old input managers.

Here is a short 3 step guide to doing just that:

Here we go:

1. Navigate to Safari in your dock and ‘Command+Click’ or, find it in the Applications folder

2. Right Click on Safari and click “Get Info” (or for the savvy, ‘Command+I’)

3. Check off “Open in 32-bit Mode”

4. Pat yourself on the back, you’re good to go!

This same process can be used for a variety of applications, you will notice all your old 32-bit plugins (Safari AdBlock, Glims, and Inquisitor) will be working again.
