Urls are not coming in as links in sent emails; certain websites are not displaying correctly

When I send an email with a url/link, it does not come in to the recipient as a link.
Went to a website (bjs.com), which was not displaying images and had no functionality.
These things worked in IE8 so it's a Firefox problem.

That is probably Hotspot Shield.

Episodes do not auto-download even though I receive email confirmation they are ready. 'Check For Avail. Downloads' says all available are already downloaded. Signed in properly on an authorized machine.

episodes do not auto-download even though I receive email confirmation they are ready. 'Check For Available Downloads' says all available are already downloaded. Signed in properly on an authorized machine. Can anyone explain this? Give directions to fix?

Thank you for the reply. These are not, however, past purchases; these are fresh episodes of purchased seasons. For instance, I receive an email that a new episode of Elementary is ready for me to download. When I check for available downloads, though, I am told there are none. So these are not previous purchases that I am trying to re-view or download again. These are fresh items for which I have paid but which I appear unable to access unless, perhaps, I were to re-purchase them. Grrrrrr.

Are certain websites simply not mac compatible?

I have had a mac for the last 4-5 years and have had only one issue in the past, which turned out to be easy to fix. However a new one is starting to crop up in that I have found that certain websites are windows and IE only. Is there a way around this? This has only occurred to me on three sites, unfortunately two of them happen to be pretty important. I would like to stay away from windows and IE as much as possible, nor do i wish to put either on my mac.

HI,
From the Apple Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences then select the Advanced tab. At the bottom of that window click: Show Develope menu in menu bar.
Now from the Safari Menu Bar click Developer/User Agent. Try one of the options there. This function only applies to sites for IE only.
Microsoft stopped writing IE for the Mac years ago. In order to run IE you would have to install Windows with BootCamp that creates a partition on the startup disk and install anti virus software on that partition.

Links from an email or website won't open in new tab

since updating to 3.6.9, when trying to open a link from an email or website, the link will open in the current tab, instead of opening the link in a new tab. i did not have this problem yesterday when 3.6.8 was running on my computer.

When trying to follow a link in a email, I get "404 NOT FOUND" this is a ligit address...any ideas?

When I click on a link received by email to complete registration and activate my membership to a Harley forum, I get "404 NOT FOUND" Not Found
The requested URL /register.php was not found on this server.
Any ideas what might account for my inability to reach this site? This sort of thing doesn't happen often. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you, Paul (debreeze)

I'm not sure why you believe that I'm running an outdated version of firefox but according to my files I'm running product version 3.6.12. In the support notification I received questioning the file version running on my computer, the link I had a problem with http://www.harleyhowto.com/forum/register.php\ was also included. When I clicked on the link I went directly to the site with no problem. Then I opened the original email containing the same link, clicked and went to 404 NOT FOUND ! I'm going back to the web site and go through the registration process again and keep my fingers crossed hopping it works when they send a new verification email . I will post the outcome, either pos. or neg and may be asking for further help. Thanks, debreeze

Certain websites are not resonsive on my Macbook pro!

So I have a late 2008 Macbook Pro. And I'm almost positive that this is an issue with the machine and not the internet. But whenever I go to certain websites (Pandora and You Tube) none of the navigational buttons are responsive! I try choosing other stations, or pausing video on You Tube and NOTHING happens. Like the sites are not letting me do anything!
Can anyone help me out here?? I'm thinking that it may be some kind of technical SOMETHING in my machine that's making it act buggy..... Thanks for your help

Hi Dj Cj,
It most definitely sounds like something with the browser. With that being said... what browser are you using? What version of the browser? If you're using Safari, what if you try FireFox? If you're using FireFox what if you try Safari? How about a new user account... does the issue persist there as well?

When I click on a link on my email the page does not appear in the forefront in safari.... it gets "hidden" behind whatever page safari is displaying

I recently started having this problem after downloading Lion and some updates after that. Not sure what to do to fix it or if its not fixable on my end. Is anyone else having this problem?
Thanks
Paul

Yes its the same and I already tried that, Thank you. the crazy thing is that the link opens up a window but i can't even select anything on it or make it active, its hidden and if I swipe to the next desktop I can see it. But i need to already have the mouse pointer over the close button or i would not even be able to close it. Very strange. ANYONE?
Paul

Certain websites are unable to load?

I have the MacBook from 2010. Whenever I try to use certain websites, the same thing shows up. It says that Safari or Google Chrome is not connected to the server. My internet is connected and websites like Facebook and Youtube are working perfectly for me. I cleared the cookies, the cache and the history and nothing is working. Does anyone know how to solve this problem? Thanks.

Instant solution. No idea why mine was set to 0 though. Thanks!
For those who come in later on with a similar problem, you just need to edit your config for
network.http.sendRefererHeader
and change its value to 2
(2 is the default value. See link by cor-el for more info)

You can set the browser.urlbar.formatting.enabled pref to false on the about:config page to disable the highlighting of the domain and see the full URL more clearly.

Certain websites will not load at certain times.

Hi,
for the last few weeks, I have been having difficulty with loading certain websites at certain times of the day. The problem is affecting websites that I've been using for years, such as hotmail, Facebook, eBay, BBC Newsfeeds, Lego website, CBBC, to name a few. It happens whether I use a bookmark, a hyperlink or whether I type it in, myself. The page will start to load, then just hang,with the loading wheel spinning. The page does not freeze and you can stop, go back, reload etc. Sometimes, ebay or hotmail will load eventually, but there will be no, or only a few pictures and the website will consist of just a list of text headings where buttons and frames should be.
The problem exists in Firefox (3.6.25) and in Safari and Internet Explorer (the latter two are fairly old versions. Firefox is my default browser). The problem is the worst around the local afternoon and seems to go away entirely at about 11 o'clock in the evening. This is way in excess of local high volume times and other image and video heavy sites work fine during the outages. Other secure (http) sites work during the outages, too. This doesn't happen every day and appears both on weekdays and weekends. When I have outages lasting several hours, I have looked on the wider web (Google always seems to work) and I can find no traffic suggesting that significant numbers of other users are having problem.
So far, I have done the following:
cleared out cookies and the cache.
reinstalled Firefox
restarted the router
carried out a virus scan using ClamXav
disabled all security and blockers
disabled all add-ons
started Firefox in Safe Mode
None of the above made any improvement. Then, suddenly just before 11pm, everything started working, as per previous nights.
This is very strange behaviour which is extremely annoying and disruptive. Can anyone help, please?
I'm using a G5 2.7 with OSX ver 10.4.11. I have not changes the hardware and software seetting for many months (that I'm aware of) nor have I installed any new software (that I"m aware of).
Yours Aye
Stuadh

BDAqua,
thanks but already done. I've tried an old laptop and although it was loading the offending pages this evening, it was taking 20 mins to load each page. I need to go to my ISP, I reckon.
Yet again, all the relevant pages go down at around 1700 and then spring to life again at 2300.

Certain websites are garbled but are OK in Google Chrome and Internet Explorer

Some websites are garbled and hard to read. The same websites are displayed correctly with Google Chrome, Internet Explorer and the Opera Browser
Just open the URL below and the problem will be very evident

If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" as a high value can cause such issues.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
Make sure that you allow websites to choose their fonts.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"

Certain buttons on certain websites do not work

There should be a break - a choice - after I've been asked whether or not I want to update Firefox and then Updater tells me that certain add-ons will not work THEN I should be given a choice whether or not I want to continue.
I had to remove Firefox 5; re-install Firefox 4 because of a key addon that I use as much as I use your Browser, now, certain websites buttons do not work:
<http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/06/30/google-transparency-report-2011_n_887998.html>
''comment removed by a moderator due to language. See the [http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Forum+and+chat+rules+and+guidelines Rules & Guidelines] ''
There are other sites with the same problem. If I were to guess what it was - it would be like a person going to the clinic and spouting out some name that they had heard on tv or read in an article. Java? CSS? HTML5? Who gives a **** - I have a life other than this machine ''and a girlfriend''.

I see a photo slide show on that page. There are arrows next to the image number (e.g., 3 of 10) that worked almost every time; once or twice I had to click a second time. There are radio buttons to rate the photo on a scale of 1-10 and then a Vote button. I didn't see a problem there.
If you are using any "blocking" add-ons (blocking ads, flash, etc.), you might try testing with those add-ons disabled temporarily to see whether that makes any difference.

Text appears as horizontal lines on certain websites or not at all

I tried searching for this problem on the board but most people only have the text overlapping problem. When I go to certain websites such as Suntrust Bank or imaging-resource.com the text does not load in some of the menus and appears as only horizontal lines or not at all BUT the link is still there if you hover over it. This is the first time it happens to me. Maybe its the newest version of Safari that is bugged? I am running version 3.1.1.
Thanks,
Danny

Yes, but did you check your present IP, or the last one?
I'm also wondering if it could have anything to do iwth the fact that I have very big inboxes & sent mail boxes.
Not likely.
Wasn't sure if rebuilding my mailboxes might help - my mail program isn't finding files properly either.
Not likely to do with the sending problem, but...
Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move this folder & file to the Desktop.
Move this Folder to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
Move this file to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
Reboot.
If that doesn't do it and you can afford to redo all your Rules, try these & reboot...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist.backup
Note, in 10.5 & up /Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/ may or may not exist.

Saying i am unable to load websites because certain websites are forbidden

i bought the comp of of someone and certain websites it says are forbidden,but the ones i would like to use are silly like you tube and radio stations and it will not allow me,and i dont know how to change the settings

You can check the connection settings and make sure that you do not use a proxy.
*Tools > Options > Advanced : Network : Connection
See "Firefox connection settings":
* [[Firefox cannot load websites but other programs can]]
You can also check the settings in security software to make sure that you aren't getting blocked there.

IPhoto '11 does not save a copy of your sent emails in your email program.

I sent an email today through iPhoto and was very disappointed that it did not put a copy of my sent mail in my Mac Mail program. This is not good for me as I often refer to my sent mails.
Is there a work around for this?

Annabelle's answer is correct but to clarify:
you need to select one of photos you sent
press info button on right bottom corner
now opens a right-side panel where in sharing area you can see the email header, click that to get to the sent email
thanks
