Duolingo on Apple Mac - Thrown out of Duo...
I was just thrown out of Duolingo and told that my browser no longer supports Duolingo (it is the most up the date version of Safari) and it offered no alternative other than Internet Explorer, Chrome and Firefox. Safari had been working fine for the past month until a few minutes ago. Does anyone have any suggestions?

It looks like they've recently cut off access to Safari versions prior to 6. If getting the latest version isn't an option (you really shouldn't be running unsupported software!) you can try changing the browser agent string. Basically you lie to duolingo about the browser you're using. These were instructions I recently sent to someone else, I don't know if he had any luck:
Try following the instructions here and change the string to Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_9) AppleWebKit/537.71 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/7.0 Safari/537.71
. It might work.
