  Safari is problematic in some respects. There have been problems with visual icons not displaying and other difficulties too. Here’s a link to an update https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic.php?id=16218

  Have you tried simply clicking on the thumbnail image?
  Do you have a Camino or Firefox browser that you can use? http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/05/20/im-using-safari-and-i-have-problems/

  unfortunately, i can’t find the firefox version that works with my OSX. i’m running 3.9 and the new firefox is for OSX 4 and above. when i choose either the title or the thumbnail, it skips right past the the page with ‘activate this theme’ on it right to the preview still. i tried using history to get the page but it doesn’t show up. help! i HATE kubrick!

  In the upper right corner of the preview pane should be an “activate this theme” link. Does that appear? If not, you might want to try the “Camino” browser which works with 10.3 and above: http://caminobrowser.org/ . I’ve heard it is pretty stable with OS X and also with wordpress.com.
