# If you need a PowerPC plug-in

If you have an Intel-based Mac computer and you’re using Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger or Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard, you can use plug-ins designed for PowerPC-based Macs. To do so, you must first install Rosetta.

Important:Using Safari with Rosetta causes Safari to load webpages more slowly.

## To use Rosetta:

1. Quit Safari if it’s open.

2. Double-click to open your computer’s hard disk.

3. Open the Applications folder.

4. Find Safari in the list of applications, and select it. Choose File > Get Info to open the Safari Info window.

5. In the General pane, select “Open using Rosetta.”

6. Close the Safari Info window.

7. Reopen Safari.
