Accented character problem fixed with Safari 5?

Inquiring minds want to know.

No. When I view document source, it appears the accented characters are font specific on users such as:
http://discussions.apple.com/profile.jspa?userID=207549
To avoid such problems, the server would have to distribute an ampersand based source character such as those described in the HTML specification here:
http://rabbit.eng.miami.edu/info/htmlchars.html
If it appears in Windows, an accented chracter may not appear on the Mac, or in a different font. If you convert any accented characters in data entry via the server to ampersand codes that are equivalent, then all platforms can see them. This is not a Safari 5 specific problem, this is a problem of how platforms define such characters.

  • Does  Mavericks have the problem fixed with working with the Dell UltraSharp U3014 30 inch monitor?

    Does  Mavericks have the problem fixed with working with the Dell UltraSharp U3014 30 inch monitor?

    I have this (or a similar) issue and I did notice something interesting. After I boot into Windows via Bootcamp (where I have the U3014 specfic driver installed) and then reboot into MacOS X (Mavericks) the monitor works flawlessly.
    I would hazard a guess that this means bootcamp is retaining the driver used in Windows. Kind of the reverse of the TB GBE adapter driver issue.
    To explain my issue for anyone else: the monitor flicks on and off as if the connection was poor. Connecting via HDMI. Connection is fine and as stated, everything works fine in Bootcamp.

  • Display problem fixed with PRAM reset????

    My 1.5G 15" Powerbook G4 had a weird fuzzy messed up display when started today. Shutdown and restart didn't help. I read in Support a video problem might need a PRAM reset. So I held down the Command-Option-P-R keys during restart and display looked fine. Might just be a coincidence so I'm wondering if this could have helped the problem. If so does it need new internal batteries? Can they be replaced by me? Are there instructions somewhere? Are there two batteries called System and Backup?
    Phil

    Hi, Phil. Some display settings are stored in PRAM, and resetting PRAM restores them to their defaults. There are some other settings that can affect the display's appearance (notably in Universal Access) that may not be wiped away by resetting PRAM, but evidently your problem was traceable to something that had been stored in PRAM — probably a reduced resolution setting.
    Unless you have some other indication that one of your PB's batteries — which are commonly called the main battery and the internal backup battery — is bad, there's no need to replace them.

  • With safari 6 webpage suddenly dissapears

    Hi, I am an user fron Buenos Aires and I've been experiencing the following problem wirh Safari 6.
    When I am in a webpage and I click on a link to go to another page within that same webpage, the page loads but, right after I move the cursor tp navigate that page, the entire page goes blank. Then I have to click on the reload button after which the page comes back and i am able to navigate without problems.
    This is quite bothersome since I have to be permanently reloading. On the other hand, it only occurs with certain webpages not all.
    Is this a bug that has to be fixed with Safari 6?
    Or is there anything I can do myself to prevent this from happening?
    Thank you to the community for any advice

    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then eslect the Extensions tab.
    If there are any installed, turn that OFF, quit then relaunch Safari to test.
    If it's not an extensions issue, open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy / paste:   ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch Safari. 
    See if that made a difference.

  • Very poor implementation of XMLHttpRequest streaming with Safari for Window

    I hope this post reaches Apple engineers. This is critical for us to resolve this. I am a member of the developer network, so if using incident support is necessary, it can be used. Do not hesitate to contact me with any questions. I have implemented a test to compare XMLHttpRequest streaming performance for different browsers. Safari for Windows 5.0.3 had the worst results compared to Chrome and Firefox. Furthermore, I think this problem was introduced after Safari 3. The test consists of a server pushing messages of about 350 bytes to the browser at a rate of about 300/s. Once server pushes 10,000 messages, it closes the connection and browser opens new one repeating the cycle. There were several problems associated with Safari: 1) Safari could not process much more then 300 messages/s, that is quite low. Chrome had no problem processing 1,000. If, for example, 500 m/s was used, Safari would quickly allocate hundreds of meg of memory and crash. 2) Safari starts with about 64MEG of memory allocated. Once the test page is opened, memory quickly climes to 150MEG and as test progresses to >400MEG. Once the connection closes, it drops to 150MEG again. Chrome's memory did not fluctuate at all staying at 32MEG for the same test. 3) CPU was steadily claiming as test progressed and then dropped as connection was reset, creating CPU spikes. It reached about 50% CPU before connection was closed. Chrome's CPU stayed at about 2% all the time. This is the code: Server. Should be run with the latest Java Tomcat 7. Configure Tomcat to use Http11NioProtocol: package test; import java.io.IOException; import java.io.PrintWriter; import java.text.SimpleDateFormat; import java.util.Date; import javax.servlet.ServletException; import javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet; import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest; import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse; import org.apache.catalina.comet.CometEvent; import org.apache.catalina.comet.CometProcessor; @SuppressWarnings("serial") public class WebFrameworkServletXHRReconnects extends HttpServlet implements CometProcessor { @Override public void event(CometEvent event) throws IOException, ServletException { HttpServletRequest request = event.getHttpServletRequest(); HttpServletResponse response = event.getHttpServletResponse(); if (event.getEventType() == CometEvent.EventType.BEGIN) { System.out.println("Begin for session: " + request.getSession(true).getId() + " " + response.getWriter()); response.setHeader("pragma", "no-cache,no-store"); response.setHeader("cache-control", "no-cache,no-store,max-age=0,max-stale=0"); event.setTimeout(Integer.MAX_VALUE); PrintWriter out = response.getWriter(); SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("mm:ss: "); for (int i = 0; i < 10000; i++) { out.print("{\"messageType\":8448,\"requestId\":"0",\"eventType\":1,\"symbolId\" :[\"BAC.EA\",0],\"fields\":[{\"header\":"0",\"type\":6,\"data\":[3993,2]},{\"hea der\":"55",\"type\":6,\"data\":[1185,2]},{\"header\":54,\"type\":6,\"data\":[321 8,2]},{\"header\":"5",\"type\":6,\"data\":[6617,2]},{\"header\":52,\"type\":4,\" data\":[15]},{\"header\":"12",\"type\":6,\"data\":[1700,2]}]}"); out.flush(); if (i % 10 == 0) { try { //Thread.sleep(60); Thread.sleep(30); } catch (InterruptedException e) { } } if (i % 100 == 0) { System.out.println(formatter.format(new Date()) + i); } } out.close(); event.close(); } else if (event.getEventType() == CometEvent.EventType.ERROR) { event.close(); } else if (event.getEventType() == CometEvent.EventType.END) { event.close(); } } } client: <script type="text/javascript" src="log4js.js">

  • Problem with safari on new i phone

    i am having a problem with safari on my new i phone the address bar is covering up some of the top of the web page and it will not let me scroll up any more has any els had this problem and can any on help

    I too, am having problem with SAFARI.
    I have been unable to log in my Flickr account. I did succeed the first day and then...it just idle and no connection with site.
    The ZOOM problem has occurred to me in a couple occasions. I did close the browser and re-opening it did fix it. Miracle or need a fix??

  • I have the latest Lion and Safari.  I am having great troubles with Safari in performance.  FireFox works great, but Safari updated 5.1.2 is awful.  What can be done to fix the latest version?  I have tried everything!

    Is Apple going to fix Safari 5.1.2?  It has been a nightmare for since the update.  I only had my Mac for a short period of time and didn't have the problem when I started. It all started when the update was loaded.  It is puzzling when Mozilla FireFox works better, but slower than the Safari.  I was told this browser was the best to use for Macs.  I am not seeing it!  I have empty the cache, reset Safari, and reset the prefences.  I still can't images, server not found error, or best yet-not connected to the internet when the news ticker is running.  What more can I do so I can make use of Safari?  I am tired to reset and clear cache every time I wish to go browse.
    Thank you!

    Hey, everbody:
    I finally threw in the towel and called tech support since it is free for me for the moment after making my post this morning.  They fix my Safari problem!  First, they had me do a shut down and unplug the computer for 30 seconds.  This idea didn't work for me.  Then they had me go and change my DNS from my IP address that was listed to the following:
    Go to System Preferences
    Click on Network
    Click Advance
    Click on DSN
    Under DSN Severs there is a plus sign.  Click on it.
    Type: 8.8.8.8
    Add another by clicking the plus sign and Type: 8.8.4.4 
    Go back to the beginning--main page and push the Apply button and then close.
    Open Safari to see if that works
    This works!  So far my Safari 5.1.2 is working like it was before the update on Lion and Safair package!  I hope this will help some of you.
    Thank you for trying to help me with my intitial question, but it turned out that I needed help from support and fix my DNS.  This may not work for all of you, but I hope for some it can relieve the stress.

  • Printing problems with Safari 5.0.3

    I just bought a new HP LaserJet Pro M1536dnf Multifunction Printer to allow me to use AirPrint on my iPad and iPhone. But now I have a problem with printing Web pages from the Safari 5.0.3 browser on my Windows Vista PC to the printer over my network. The printer does not print any type or graphics on the page although it does output several nearly blank pages each time I try to print. The only mark on the pages is a faint thin gray line at the bottom of each page.
    Safari is the only program where this problem occurs. The printer works correctly with Internet Explorer, Outlook, and Word. I did not have this problem with my previous HP printer.
    The M1536dnf also prints correctly from the Safari browser on my iPad through AirPrint.
    I also tried printing in Safari on a Windows 7 laptop on the network and had the same problem.
    Any suggestions?

    I reloaded the HP drivers. But that didn't fix the problem. Because the problem is only with Safari in Windows and not Internet Explorer (nor any other Windows applications), it seems to me to be a Safari problem rather than a problem with the printer. On the other hand, Safari for Windows printed correctly on my previous HP LaserJet 1022nw and its driver. I've contacted HP and they want to lay the blame on Apple. I have reported the problem to Apple as well and have heard nothing. Once again, after paying hundreds of dollars on new equipment to be able to print from my iPad and iPhone, the user is left to fend for himself. Others seem to be having this problem. Perhaps, Apple and HP might consider working together to the benefit of the customer.
    (One bright spot: the 1536 does print from the Safari browsers on the iPad and the iPhone.)

  • Safari cannot open the page ~ The error was: "There was a problem communicating with the web proxy server (HTTP)

    Help!  I was cruzing along just fine and went out tonight only to receive the message above:
    Cannot open Page
    Safari cannot open the page
    The error was: "There was a problem communicating with the web proxy server (HTTP)."
    I have had all the Apple iPhone phone.  Have never encountered anything like this. 
    All systems are GO as soon as I log on to wifi. 
    Can anyone help, please. 

    I am also fixed.  I also loaded Onavo, but that was the other day ... this is what I did with the help of online chat with AT&T ...
    I went to:
    Settings
    Wifi
    I selected the network I was working on by hitting the blue arrow located on right side
    At the detail page of that network I scolled down to the bottom to find HTTP Proxy boxes
    I was on Off and changed it to Auto and it worked! 
    I was soo jazzed!!
    Instructions said if it was already on AUTO, to change it to Manual and make your Port = 80 but I didn't have to do that!
    YIPPIE!!  I'm a new man!!
    Go to settings -----> WI-FI  -----> select the network you're using  ------> hit the blue arrow located on the right-side of the network name (ie: show details of that network), this takes you to another page.  
    --------> at the bottom of the page you'll see "HTTP Proxy" boxes (located below the "renew lease" button) ---------------> change the proxy to AUTO.   Note: if you're already at AUTO, change it to "Manual" and make your Port = 80.

  • Problem in MAc with Safari 5.0.3 (6533.19.4)

    I have a problem:
    A client of mine has two macs with Safari 5.0.3 (6533.19.4) he is unable to see the website that I have created for him properly on this browser.
    This is how it looks on his browser:

    This is how it looks for me:

    I would like to know if there is any solution for this.
    Also, can you go on this website and see it on Safari:

    and let me know if it shows proper for you.
    I would really appreciate all the help that you can provide
    Thanks

    Thanks a lot for your reply Andy but I have checked on all browsers and the only one that is not working properly is Safari 5.0.3 (6533.19.4)
    I will fix the spelling mistake.

  • New Amazon Problems with Safari 2.0.2

    There is a problem I discovered tonight on Amazon.com that seems to be affecting Safari. This problem is new and has been introduced in the last week or two. When you look for a music CD, the page should show the individual disc and price and then have a secton below called "Better Together" that shows two discs and a "Buy Both" button. In Safari, the individual disc information, price and artwork no longer shows and the only option is to buy both. If I open the same page in Firefox, both sections display correctly. For example, do a search on No Doubt, "Return of Saturn". Look at the page in Safari and then do the same search in Firefox. You'll see the Safari page is missing the top section. Not sure what Amazon is doing but this is new. Makes it tough to download cover art. Maybe that's the idea.
    G4 PowerBook 17   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    Good suggestions, unfortunately, none seemed to help. I went to a different user account (I too keep one around for testing) and same thing happened there. I also disabled JavaScript and Java and no difference. When I go to books and movies, everything looks fine. No trouble there and everything seems to display correctly. The only problem is with CD's.
    The good news is I think I found the fix. I had previously cleaned out my Amazon cookies which didn't seem to help so in my test user account, I reset Safari which cleared out all the cookies. When I tried it again, the page displayed correctly. I went back and reviewed the new cookies Amazon created and found those same cookies in my regular user account. Once deleted, everything appears to work normally. There were two sets of cookies on my machine. One set were .amazon and the others were www.amazon. It looks like the .amazon cookies were the culprits.
    My guess is that they've changed something recently because I've been downloading a lot of art work over the past several weeks. For whatever reason, that conflicted with a cookie setting. You might not have experienced it because your cookies were newer/older and therefore you had the right settings. Who knows...just a guess.
    Thanks for the test account idea. Have a great holiday!

  • Can't delete file or directory with accent character

    I have a directory within my iTunes folder structure that has an accent character in it which I am trying to delete.
    If I do an ls on the directory I get this:
    ls -al ls: Radiů Disney_ Jams Vol. 2: No such file or directory
    total 0
    drwxr-xr-x 3 scott staff 102 Jul 29 13:16 .
    drwxrwxr-x@ 21 scott staff 782 Jul 29 13:24 ..
    I've tried rm -rf * but after that I attempt an ls -l I still get: ls: Radiů Disney_ Jams Vol. 2: No such file or directory
    Any way to delete the directory with offending filename? If I attempt to delete the parent directory I get a "Directory not empty message"

    macwiz,
    I tried the SMB path as well but the files were acting as though they were written with indelible electrons. I remembered that the files were originally created and deposited into the folder from a windows machine. I logged into my folder from the same machine and was able to delete them without any problem.
    I appreciate your help and have saved your suggestions (I'm sure they'll come in handy).
    cheers
