Yes, there are several steps you can take to fix bugs that only appear on Safari Desktop for your Webflow project. Here's what you can do:

Check for browser compatibility issues: First, make sure that the elements or features causing the bug are compatible with Safari Desktop. Check if there are any known issues with Safari's support for specific CSS properties or JavaScript functions that you're using in your project.
Use browser-specific CSS: Sometimes, certain CSS properties or values are interpreted differently by different browsers. To fix the bug, you can write browser-specific CSS for Safari Desktop. You can do this by using CSS media queries that target Safari Desktop specifically.
Test and debug on Safari Desktop: Use Safari Desktop's developer tools to inspect and debug the issue. You can open the developer tools by going to Safari > Preferences > Advanced and enabling the "Show Develop menu in menu bar" option. Then, navigate to the web page where the bug appears, right-click on the element causing the issue, and select "Inspect Element". From there, you can analyze the HTML structure, CSS properties, and JavaScript code associated with the problematic element.
Update Webflow and Safari: Make sure that you're using the latest version of Webflow and that your Safari browser is updated to the latest version as well. Sometimes, bugs can be caused by outdated software versions, and updating them can resolve compatibility issues.
Seek help from the Webflow community: If you're unable to find a solution on your own, you can reach out to the Webflow community for assistance. The Webflow forum and community are filled with experienced designers and developers who may have encountered similar issues and can provide guidance or solutions.

By following these steps, you should be able to identify and resolve the bugs that are specific to Safari Desktop on your Webflow project.
