Address and date recognition in Safari

Data, detected.
Say you get an email invitation to dinner. What if Mail recognized the address of the restaurant and let you map directions on the web? Or let you click once to add the date to your iCal calendar? With Leopard, it does. Mail even recognizes relative dates (“let’s meet next Tuesday”) and keywords (“dinner tomorrow”), so you can act on information rather than enter it.- Apple.com
Why cant this be done in Safari also, even is it's with select websites?

Updated to ios5. Address and action bars,in safari, are now black instead of blue. Normal?

Hit a banner at the bottom of safari. Went to a site that said my phone was being affected. Reset my phone. Now safari address and action bars are black instead of blue. Possible virus or overreaction?

Yes, iOS5 changed the interface of Safari. It's official. Not sure if you've noticed but auto-correct and spellcheck are missing from the search bar as well.

Cannot open PDF attachments on my Mac; I have to copy PDF address an open it on Safari instead.

I cannot open PDF attachment on my Mac. One might think it is just slow, but the attachment never comes up. I have to copy the PDF address and paste it into Safari or Explorer, which have no trouble opening the very PDF that Firefox would not handle. I am guessing that I have some setting that is barring PDFs; other attachments open fine. My adobe is up to date, I think; if that was the problem Safari, too, would not be able to open the PDF.

There is a plugin that you can use, for details see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Opening+PDF+files+within+Firefox

My iPad when I open safari will allow me to type a address and it will go to the web site but when it gets there the screen is darkened and it will not let me do anything but go to anouther adress. Touch screen doesn't work and tabs don't work.

I am having problems with safari. The screen is darkened and I can't use touch screen or tabe. But I can use the address bar and go to anouther website. Other then that I can see website but can't touch nothing, how do I fix

Go to Settings>Safari>Clear Cookies and Data. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Or
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Or if those do not work - quit Safari
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

When I open the safari i go to facebook. now i get a weird address and have to go to bookmarks to get facebook

when I open mymac book pro i click on safari and it goes straight to facebook. but for some reason now when i open safari i get a strange address and have to go to bookmarks to find facebook. anyone have a clue

I tried to edit my previous post, but the system did not store my edits and no longer offers an 'Edit' button. The following is my revised post:
I am also using Safari 5.1.7. By choosing the 'Privacy' tab in Preferences and then clicking on the 'Details' button, I have accessed a list of all the domains that are currently storing cookies in my browser.
However, I'm unable to view the individual cookies or their contents by clicking or double-clicking on a given domain name in the list. So, how does one view an individual cookie and its content in Safari?
By comparison, when I view the list of all domains storing cookies in Google Chrome's Preferences (Settings/ Privacy/ Content settings.../ All cookies and site data...), I'm able to view all individual cookies for a given domain by clicking (once) on that domain name in the list. (One domain, for example, had 9 separate cookies.) Then, I can view the full content of each cookie by clicking on a button bearing that cookie's name. For example, the content within each cookie displays such information as:
'Name' (often a Session ID), 'Content' (a string of characters), 'Domain' (including subdomain, if applicable), 'Path' (generally root level, /), 'Send for' (when cookie should be invoked), 'Accessible to script' (yes or no), 'Created' (date), and 'Expires' (date). I find that some of this data can be enlightening -- such as when a site is storing affiliate codes in a cookie, and who the affiliate is. If I wish, I can delete an individual cookie (out of multiples) for a single domain, without necessarily deleting ALL the cookies for that domain.
Safari does not seem to have similar capabilities, which puzzles me. That's a big shortcoming, IMO. :-(

Restoring address book data and mail

I wonder if anyone can help. I lost the hard drive of my iMac PowerPC G5 to a crash, from which no recovery was possible. Fortunately I had backed up all my data to a LaCie external hard drive. I have had the iMac hard drive replaced, and in the process the OS was upgraded from Tiger to Leopard.
I am now trying to restore data from the external drive to the iMac and am finding it challenging. I have found the address book data file but the icon is like a blank sheet of paper i.e. a file in an unsupported format. I have tried dragging and dropping into address book, but to no avail. I would also like to find my Safari bookmarks as well but worry that I will have exactly the same problems.
Alternatively should I just be dragging the whole library (myusername/library) into library on the new hard drive?
Any thoughts on this plus general tips on how to restore data much appreciated.

I have just followed your instructions for restoring Mail and Address Book files after I did an Erase and Istall. I didn't do a restore from my back up but reinstalled all the software from discs and am carefully bringing files back into my clean laptop bit by bit.
I got my address book files back but I don't have all the Mail files back....just my Inbox and Smart Mailboxes. I don't have the emails I put into all the files in my side bar....they are still empty.
Also, I could not find: /Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/com.apple.AddressBook/ on my back up.
Thank you

Reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
No data is lost due to a reset.

This thing is so annoying when trying to go somewhere i just want the error message to go away.

In your Keychain under 'login' delete the VeriSign certificates and then quit and restart all browsers/itunes/app store.

In this case you won't be able to do that?

I have 2 apple id's with different apps and data saved under each. It's very annoying so now I want to create a new id with my primary email address I use now. If I do that is there any way to transfer all my saved apps and app data like game saves etc?

I have 2 apple id's with different apps and data saved under each. It's very annoying so now I want to create a new id with my primary email address I use now. If I do that is there any way to transfer all my saved apps and app data like game saves etc so I don't lose all of that information and can easily switch to a singular apple id?

Apple does not transfer content bought with one Apple ID to another Apple ID. Apple will not merge two Apple IDs.
If most of your content was bought with the Yahoo! Apple ID but you now want the Gmail address for your Apple ID, the trick will be to change the address used for the Yahoo ID with the Gmail address. However, to do that you must first free the Gmail address from that other Apple ID. Use the instructions from Apple to substitute another address that is not used as an Apple ID for your Gmail address in the Apple ID with the Gmail address. Then, when the Gmail address is no longer used in an Apple ID, you can use the same instructions to substitute the Gmail address for the Yahoo address in the Apple ID with the Yahoo address.

HT204053 My iPhone is set up with my old iCloud details. I can't remember the password, it is an old email address and it is not recognising my date of birth!! How can I delete it from my phone and enter my new Apple ID?

My iPhone is set up with my old iCloud details - how do I change it to my new Apple ID - my email has changed. I can't remember old password and it's not recognising my date of birth. I no longer have the trusted device or key thing??

Try going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

When I press the iTunes button on my ipod touch I get the message 'cannot connect to iTunes store' . My wifi is working fine, I can connect to safari & you tube, no parental setting in place, and time and date are correct. Can anyone help please? I have restored my ipod to factory settings and rest it.

I also tried moving the date forward by a year and then moving it back to normal and it still doesn't work. i can't find an automatic update of time zones on my itouch to turn this off.

I was using my wifi last night when I got an error message stating my ip address had been taken over. Then safari stopped working and i can no longer access the internet. I looked at my ip address and it states 000.000.000....can someone please help?

Sounds like a bogus pop up. In any case power down your Mac, your modem, your router. Then power back up in 1 minute sequence; modem, router, Mac.

Accessing an Apple account when the e-mail address and birth date are incorrect??

In updating to IOS yesterday I have stupidly ended up with three Apple accounts (It said I needed one with an e-mail address, there was my cloud account and my account I have used for years to purchase)
I basically messed up and thought I could create a fresh account with my e-mail address and still cotinue to download updates for my previous purchases.
Somehow my old Apple account that I bought all my apps on has become disconnected from my e-mail address and has the wrong date of birth - i threfore can't get in to the account or reset the password... is there a number I can call??

Good luck with this!!!
EVEN USING what WAS my Username, this is the exact problem I am having having entered my correct ID and Password.
