Our demo galleries function very similarly in Safari 5.1.7 as they do in other browsers on my own PC.

If you are referring to the smoothness of the slide transition, then this may vary slightly from browser to browser and may also be somewhat dependent on the computer hardware being used. The fact that you are also loading the gallery in a virtual machine may also be a contributing factor.

One possible thing that can be done to maximize the smoothness of the transition is to ensure that imagePreloading="NEXT" (Juicebox-Pro only) or imagePreloading="PAGE" (default setting used by Juicebox-Lite) so that the next image in the gallery is already preloaded by the browser and ready to be displayed when selected by the user.
(Most of our demo galleries already use such settings but I thought I should point it out for anyone creating their own galleries and currently setting imagePreloading="NONE".)

Please also bear in mind that Safari is no longer being developed by Apple for PC and Safari v5.1.7 is now over two years old.
As you have noticed, modern browsers seem to provide a smoother image transition and I would recommend using a browser which is actively being developed (Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Internet Explorer).

I found and tested Juicebox gallery on realy Windows 7, Safari 5.1.7 and all fine! Maybe  a virtual machine was a contributing factor.
Thanks for help!
