Safari not displaying certain texts on YouTube pages properly

Hi, I've been having this weird problem with Safari for almost two months now even before the 5.1.4 update. I even went to Apple Genius with my macbook pro and they said the problem is minor and should be fixed with the new update (5.1.4), but the problem still persists!
Basically, whenever I go on YouTube for EVERY/any video and click on the "more info" button to look at the information spread on videos, all the remaining texts and links are "invisible." I have to literally highlight everything in the information spread in order to permanently display the texts, links, etc after enlarging the information tab. I've tried updating everything (Safari--both 5.1.3 and 5.1.4, OSX, repairing disk permissions, all settings are on in Safari, etc) to NO AVAIL! It's so frustrating and annoying. I'm not that tech savvy, so I don't quite understand what kind of problem this applies to whether CSS, JAVA, Flash, or whatever else. A genius bar representative said it's not Flash (which I also updated and reinstalled a few times), since I can load and watch videos perfectly fine. He was able to reproduce the problem on one of the macbook airs at the store and that's when he said the problem should be fixed with the newest update. Obviously not. Please help me resolve this issue or at least, understand it. It's really frustrating. Chrome and other browsers work perfectly fine with YouTube on my MacBook as well.

Thank you in advance!

Hi,
Yes, he was able to reproduce it on a macbook air, but he never told me how or anything else. Just that it was a "minor" problem with codes and should be fixed with the newest update.
Also, I went to the Safari menu and the Style sheets set to none has always been set. I reset Safari as you said, and when I opened it again, it was really slow at loading any of my Top Sites (clicked on YouTube). Missing info spread (invisible) still persists...
I opened a guest account and the problem also occurs with Safari there, so I know this is a system wide glitch. I'm so close to erasing and reinstalling the OSX system out of frustration. (I have all my important files backed up so I dont actually mind doing this).

Numbers not displaying certain text.

I use Numbers to create invoices. Previous versions of numbers would display and print but not export certain text. In version 9 the same text will not even display. Any way to fix without opening all my old invoices in a previous version of Numbers?

Can you be more specific as to what is not displaying or printing or exporting?
Which version are you using. I ask because you said "previous versions would..." which implies Numbers '08 and Numbers '09, the only two previous versions. From that, and your profile of OS X 10.9.1, I would assume your question is about Numbers 3. But then you made a statement about Numbers "9" as the version you are having the problem with.
What are you exporting to? Excel, CSV, PDF?
Maybe a screenshot would help?

Safari not displaying certain icons and background music while viewing

I'm new to Mac OS.
I tried to view a website I used to visit but the 27" iMac wouldn't display certain icons and the background music when Windows 7 could.
I recalled when I was in the Windows 7, the internet Explore brought down a small yellow bar from the top page asking me whether I'd like to install the ActiveX so that the site can play back the backgound music, java script and so on.
I downloaded and tried the Google's Crome and the Firefox browsers but they were the same as the Safari.
Is there a remedy for it?
Your help is greatly appreciated.

HI,
If you could post a link to the site it would help.
From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari / Preferences and select the Security tab.
Where you see: Web content: Make sure the top 3 buttons are checked. Relaunch Safari and try that site.
If you would take a moment and click My Settings on the right side of this window and tell us which Mac OS X version your iMac is running and which version of Safari, that helps us trouble shoot for you. Thanks!

Safari not displaying web text correctly...

Under my admin account, in Safari, lots of sites displays text inaccurately, namely each letter presents as a capital A in a square box, while what I assume is background/template where text is in effect graphic displays fine...
Firefox displays the sites accurately...
sample web page ... http://www.arnoldclark.com/
http://www.flickr.com/photos/brendansca/5497713875/in/photostream/ image via Firefox
http://www.flickr.com/photos/brendansca/5498307758/in/photostream/ image via SAFARI
Under other accounts on same laptop, sites present as expected under Safari and Firefox

Dai --
It looks like you have a problems with the LucidaGrande font.
Here's a Quote from Kurt Lang on this subject:
+A’s with boxes around them is always a sign of trouble with the main system+
+font, Lucida Grande.+
+Quick possible fix is to remove ALL font cache files from the system to see+
+if it's just bad cache data. For that, you need to use OnyX or other utility+
+which will remove both system and user cache files. A Safe Mode boot won't+
+work since it only removes cache data from the user account you do a safe+
+boot to.+
+If after that the problem returns, then Lucida Grande itself is damaged and+
+needs to be replaced.+

Safari Not Displaying All Images On Web Page

When I look at a web page in Safari on my iPhone 3GS, not all of the images on the page load. Instead, I see little blue squares with question marks in them. However, if I look at the same web page on an iPhone 4, the images DO load. Why is this happening?
Here are two screenshots to prove my point:
iPhone 3GS
iPhone 4

Settings>Safari>Javascript On maybe?

Firefox 4 not displaying certain content

On the below website, since firefox 4 was released it was working fine, but since firefox 4, it doesnt display certain text, please see below the two links provided of pictures, one displaying a picture from Microsoft IE, and Firefox version.
Microsoft IE (How it should display): http://img864.imageshack.us/img864/7798/ieimg.png
Firefox (It's not displaying certain text):
http://img841.imageshack.us/img841/2622/firefoximg.png
Now is this due to the HTML used or the browser?
Thanks

This is a little hard to diagnose from the pictures. I'm guessing that the box comes up blank at first and then is filled in from the server in real time after you make a selection from the drop-down control. Is that how it is supposed to work?
(Edit: I assumed the box was blank, but in case it is "white on white", you could try selecting that area, which would make it possible to see whether anything is there.)
Is there any part of the site that can be used without a login that demonstrates the same problem? (I went to the demo, but it's just a Flash movie...)
If not, you could check Firefox's Error Console (Tools menu). First click Clear, then reload the page that you want to use. There may be lots of warnings, but is anything marked with the "X" error symbol? Then click the link or button or drop-down that should populate the information. Check the Error Console for new errors. Although it's rare that you could fix such errors from your end, it might be possible, or you could report them to the site.

Safari not displaying some web pages properly why?

I have been finding of late that safari does not display certain web pages properly. i.e.: text overlaps other text and is not formatted properly. This seems to have become more common lately. Even Apple's own apple info page does not display properly. Could this be a setting in safari that I have messed up somehow?

Go step by step and test.
1. Delete Cookies
    Safari > Preferences > Privacy > Cookies and other website data:
    Click the “Details” button.
    Remove all cookies except from Apple, your internet service provider and banks.
2. Safari > Preferences > Extensions
    Turn off Extensions if any and launch Safari again to test.
    Turn on those one by one and test.
3. Delete Caches.db
    Close all windows and quit all applications.
    Hold "option" key down and click "Go" menu in the Finder menu bar.
    Select "Library" from the dropdown.
    Library > Caches > com.apple.Safari > Caches.db
    Right click the Caches.db file and select "Move To Trash.
    Close windows and relaunch Safari.
4. Empty Caches
    Safari > Preference > Advanced
    Checkmark the box for "Show Develop menu in menu bar".
    Develop menu will appear in the Safari menu bar.
    Click Develop and select "Empty Caches" from the dropdown.
5. Temporarily turn off Safari iCloud sync and test.
     System Preferences > iCloud
     Uncheck the box beside “Safari” and test.

Flash Text not displaying certain fonts

Thanks as always…
I am trying to use Flash text for some headings, but after an
hour of pulling my hair out I've just realised it will only display
certain fonts, such as Helvetica etc.
I added the font I want to use to my font list but it still
does not display…
I'm using MX on OSX 10.3.9.
Any ideas? Thansk.

Is your text in a dynamic text box, or static text box in
flash?
I don't think the issue concerns the "true-type" or not
"true-type" font.
In Flash, when text is part of a dynamic text box (which I
assume is the case in your situation),
then the font works just like in an html page:
if the font is installed on the computer it will show, if
not, it won't. The way around this, is to
embed the font data in the authoring flash file, and link it
to the dynamic text box, via actionScript.
So if you cannot work on the authoring Flash file with Flash
MX or Flash8, and if indeed we're
talking about a dynamic text box, your only option is to use
a web-safe font.

Firefox page images do not display only text and links

New desktop (not this one) with windows 8.1 Pro, Firefox 29, Norton Internet security. When I go to many of the Firefox pages images do not display, only text and links. This is true for the "get add-ons" page. I can search for add-ons, but when I try to install one, the installation fails. Is there a security setting in windows or NIS that is blocking Firefox images and installations? The Firefox installation went smoothly without error. Other sites do not have this problem.

Wow! I never would have thought of that! My time settings were incorrect when I set up the PC, and I thought I set them. I did have the day, date, and time set correctly. But I did not have AM/PM set right. So, I was off by 12 hours. I corrected it and, voila, all works well.
I'm so happy now, because I can now get all the security extensions I've grown to love:
- NoScript
- Ghostery
- Better Privacy
- Adblock Plus
You guys are great! Thank you so much for your help.

Mail not displaying certain messages

Mail is suddenly not displaying certain messages in mailboxes. I can see and select the message in the center pane, but when I click on it to display, I get the "Loading" text and the spinner. This continues without resolution, though sometimes the messages will display after quitting Mail and/or rebuilding the Mailbox.
It is not random messages that do this, but always the same ones that refuse to display. But they will display sometimes after a rebuild, so I know they aren't gone.
Some have image attachtments, others do not.
This just started this morning, following running Disk Utility to repair some HD corruption last night. Prior to that, Mail (and Safari) had been running very slowly for about three weeks.
I have already repaired permissions on this drive.

Acutab,
I had the same problem. I took your advice and rebuilt the mailbox-voila. The problem was solved. I have also noticed Safari running slow. I will try and run Disk Utility

Have a gap in detail of first page and not display group footer on each pag

Please help me about Memo field in SubReport in CrystalReportXI. I have a SubReport that need to display pageheader, detail, page footer, and in detail of subreport contains memo field and set the property of this text box to "Can Grow" = Yes .However, CrystalReportX does not support to display pageheader, pagefooter in SubReport. So. I have created a formular FakePageHeader that has code as
"WhileReadingRecords;
true"
and group in this field and checked option repeat group header on each page and right click Section Expert->check print at Bottom of page for Group Footer.
This problem is when I preview Subreport. It display text in group header and a gap in detail of first page and view next page, the subreport display right data of memo field. But the report still not display group footer on each page.
How do I can remove a gap in first page and display group footer on each page?
Thanks

in subreport in format for the memo field uncheck keep object together.
You can not force group footers to repeat on each page.
I have not tried this but you might be able to capture the data you want to show in SR page footer and display in main report page footer, using shared variables.

Some of them do not display - in text. Those fonts also fails in winword, word is also not able to transcode - in those fonts.
In word it shows that block instead of -. Any idea how to display - for these type of fonts.
Fonts are GillSansST,HelvesticaST,SnellST.

I found that problem was with fonts it self only.
When fonts were generated - was not included in it.

Workflow outbound notification not displaying certain information

Hi All,
We have an issue with PO notification. Randomly some of the PO approval notification emails are not displaying certain feilds like Ship-to, bill-to and PO Number, but it displays the PO lines properly. Also this is only happening for POs having attachments.
Blank fields in PO Approval Emails
Have found a bug "Bug 2646120: E-MAILED PO DOES NOT DISPLAY ADDRESSES OF SUPPLIER, SHIP-TO OR BILL-TO" in metalink which is similar , but it seems to be setup issue. In our case issue is getting fixed after we bounce notification mailer. I think this is happening because of workflow reaching certain limits or either some or other bug with workflow. Please let me know if any one had similar experiences.
Thanks,
Aditya

Hi Hussain,
We are on 11.5.10.2 and OS is RHEL 5, issue is that at the moment i dont have access to logs (I hoping to see errors similar to out of memory ;-) to justify the case) . Was checking whether any one has seen similar issues and are there any limitations with mail size/attachment size for workfow outbound notification. I could not get this info in metalink or google.
Thanks,

SuperFrench is found but this font can not display any text

"SuperFrench" font comes from Autodesk. this fonts's real file name is supef__.ttf
If it is placed in C:\Windows\Fonts folder then it is available for Windows native apps such as MS Excel.
Java GraphicsEnvironment finds "SuperFrench" font
but this font can not display any text.
This happens in both Java6(1.6.0_34) and Java7(1.7.0_06)
try this
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.util.*;
public class FontTest01 {
public static void main( String[] args ){
    FontTest01 app = new FontTest01();
    app.run();
void run() {
    String fontName = "SuperFrench"; //** SuperFrench font
    GraphicsEnvironment ge = GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment();
    String[] existFontNames = ge.getAvailableFontFamilyNames(Locale.ENGLISH);
    boolean fontExists = false;
    for( int i=0 ; i<existFontNames.length ; i++ ){
      if( existFontNames.equals( fontName ) ){
fontExists = true; break;
if( fontExists==false ){
System.out.println( fontName +" does not exist" );
System.exit(-1);
JLabel label = new JLabel( "ABCDEFG" );
Font font = new Font( fontName, Font.PLAIN, 20 );
System.out.println( font.getFontName() );

I hope Java font system will deal with it.
