ADE 1.7.2 not compatible with Safari 5.0.3 on Leopard (10.5.8)?

I cannot download a URLLink.acsm file with Safari 5.0.3, even after creating a com.apple.DownloadAssessment.plist file and adding "acsm" under "LSRiskCategoryExtensions" as suggested in the release notes for ADE 1.7.2 (Dated February 2010)
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/806/cpsid_80635.html
as well as the comment to the following blog post cited therein and restarting the computer:
http://mymacinations.com/2008/02/06/changing-the-systems-default-settings-for-html-files-s afe/
I have to locate the file in "Download" folder download with FireFox while online and double-click it to open it with ADE 1.7.2.
In contrast, FireFox 3.6.13 installed on the same Mac (MacBook early 2009, MacOS 10.5.8) can download the a URLLink.acsm file without any trouble and prompts me to open it with ADE.
The system requirements for ADE 1.7.2 states that it supports the following browsers and Adobe Flash Versions on Mac:
Apple Safari 4, Mozilla Firefox 3
Adobe Flash® Player 9 or 10
Does my trouble mean that ADE 1.7.2 released February 2010 is not compatible with Safari 5 released in June 2010?
When will ADE be compatible with the latest version of Safari?

ios 6 requires itunes 10.6.3 or higher which requires Mac OS 10.6.8 or higher

How can I open a web page that is not compatible with safari?

Hi all
I get the following message when I try to go to a certain web site:
http://www.sia.homeoffice.gov.uk/Pages/licensing-rolh.aspx click on the "GO TO THE REGISTER" button
Please note: clicking the button above will transfer you to our secure server, which will open in a new window. You must be using Internet Explorer 6, 7 or 8, or Netscape 7.02 for the new site to display properly. You can return to this site by closing the new window.
I have looked at Internet Explorer and Netscape and both seem to be out of date with our IOS.
How can I access this page?

Try downloading another browser, Firefox for example. Open the link in Firefox and once the page opens copy the link and paste it in safari address bar. That works for me.
Still trying to find out why we have to do this though since it works just fine in Safari once you had it opened in another browser.
Hope that helps you!

I have installed Firefox4 to find it is not compatible with my version of OSX how do I get version 3.6 back or do I just give up and use Safari?

I downloaded Version 4 and installed it. At no point did it say that it was not compatible with the version of OS X that I am running (10.4.11) now that it is installed it will not open but it has already up graded from 3.6 so I have lost the lot. How can I download a version of 3.6 so that I can use it again or should I just pack up and use Safari as all I can get from your site is version 4. HELP!!!

Hello:
You need to contact "epost." The issue is not an Apple issue....the epost software needs, I assume, to be updated.

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).
No data will be lost.

ADE Not Compatible With Password Protected PDF Files

The version of ADE I downloaded will not work with password protected PDF files. What do I do?
Thanks.

ADE does not (yet) support files that use the Password Security handler, so you will want to use a different PDF viewer, such as Adobe Reader.

Do a clean reinstall and download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
You can skip the step to create a new profile, that is not necessary for this issue.

My Macbook browser is not compatible with a business website I must use for work. Is there a Windows compatible browser for my Mac?

My Macbook browser is not compatible with a business website I must use for work. Is there a Windows compatible browser for my Mac?

If the site has been optimised for IE (which is non-standards compliant), the best you can try is to spoof IE from Safari.
I'm using an earlier version of Safari than you, so I hope Allan or someone will correct me if the procedure is different.
First, go to Safari Preferences and enable the developer menu;
Then go to the menu and select User Agent - choose a flavour of IE.
Works about 50% of the time.
It won't work if the site is using Activex controls.

Disk Warrior not compatible with OS 10.4.6?

I purchased DiskWarrior (version 3.03) last year and used it once on my old 1.6 GHz iMac with OS 10.3.6.
I now have a 2.1 GHz non-Intel iSight iMac with Mac OS 10.4.6.
I have tried twice to start up from the DiskWarrior CD - the first time, I never got beyond the grey apple and very loud fans whirring; the second time, I got another grey icon (sort of like a traffic sign - a circle with a line through it) along with the spinning wheel. Both times I gave up after 30 minutes and turned the iMac off with the power button.
This is a bit expensive for a one time use. It seems that DiskWarrior is not compatible with OS 10.4.6 and/or the iSight iMac? I checked the Alsoft website - v. 3.03 is the latest version available.

Wow! I think that you will either need to wait until your external drive is free to be erased, or to buy another external drive to be able to do everything you want all at once.
Once you have a free drive, divide it into two partitions, including one that is only about 5GB. Install a bare system using your iMac's Install & Restore Disc 1 onto this small partition. Customize your installation by choosing not to install printer drivers, languages, iLife applications, extra fonts or X11. This installation will be a little over 2GB.
When you first visit this system's Desktop, go to Software Update and install only the 10.4.6 Combined Update, any Java updates and possibly QuickTime 7.0.4. Reboot and repair permissions. Remove everything from the Dock but Safari and System Preferences. Drag Disk Utility into the Dock from your Applications/Utilities/ folder.
Launch Safari, go to shirtpocket.com and download and install the cloning utility, SuperDuper! Drag SuperDuper!'s icon from your Utilities folder to the Dock. Register it if you want the added features, or use the unregistered version to make your clones fresh each time.
Next, insert the Disk Warrior disc (any version of Disk Warrior 3.0.3 will do here) and drag DW to your /Applications/Utilities/ folder. Drag Disk Warrior's icon in your Utilities folder to the Dock.
Now you need only boot into your small maintenance partition to launch Disk Warrior so you can run it on your iMac and/or the clone that is on the external's larger partition. And of course, you'll clone your iMac to the larger partition on your external drive by booting into the smaller partition and running SuperDuper! from there.
Simple!

There is a version of Firefox 4 available for PPC Macs:
TenFourFox 4.0.1 Firefox 4 For PowerPC Browser Released
Version 4.0.1 of TenFour Fox, FloodGap's port of Firefox 4 for Power PC
Macs that supports both Mac oS X 10.4 and 10.5. has been released.
Mozilla.org dropped support for OS 10.5 after Firefox 3.6 and for Power
PC with the fourth beta of Firefox 4.
TenFourFox uses almost all the same code as Firefox 4 and has nearly all
the same features, including faster JavaScript, WebM video, and HTML 5
and CSS 3 support, as well as new and emerging Web features, but with
the code needed to keep your Power Mac functional and fast. Out of beta
and it's ready for action, versiob 4.0.1 is a performance, security and
stability update incorporating Mozilla's Firefox 4.0.1 plus AltiVec acceler
-ation for WebM and browser graphics, and G5 JavaScript acceleration.
For more information, visit:
http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
Source: from http://www.applelinks.com - posted April 25, 2011)
Now for the intersting bit: TenFourFox, like Firefox, does not support most plug-ins. Unless you are prone to headaches (in which case don't) you can read about that here:
http://code.google.com/p/tenfourfox/wiki/PluginsNoLongerSupported
But there is a workaround!
Open TenFourFox and type in the address bar: about:config (no spaces) and click return. This gives you a warning that it might harm the application. Ignore that and click on 'I'll be careful, I promise' and you get the config file that you can edit - with great care.
Look/search (scroll down) for: tenfourfox.plugins.enabled
Set it to true. (Double click it to toggle it)
Now close TenFourFox, open it again, and Flash will now work, as it now uses the plug-ins that Safari has stored.
With SilverLight, Microsoft attempted to create their own version of what a replacement for Flash could be - but not to universal acclaim. You can read more about it here:
http://silverlight.net/
So, if you go to any sites that have been designed for this new Silverlight stuff, you can download the plug-in from here (but make certain that you are downloading SilverLight v.1.0 for OS X (10.4.8 upwards) if you are using a PPC Mac, but even this will not work with Safari 4. Version 2 only works with Intel Macs and does work with Safari 4/5. The solution is to download and install the latest version of Flip4Mac, which now includes a Silverlight component:
http://dynamic.telestream.net/downloads/download-flip4macwmv.htm
But the latest news is that Microsoft will probably abandon Silverlight in favour of HTML5:
http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/10/10/29/apples_ios_pushes_microsoft_to_dia l_down_silverlight_for_html5.html and

ICloud apps Not Compatible with older versions if iWorks

CAUTION
If you haven't upgraded to the new version of iWorks that was released with Mavericks today, do NOT open any of your files in iCloud. If you do, you will no longer be able to open them with your older versions of the iWorks apps.
For example, Apple today released Pages version 5.0. The last version of Pages was 4.3 (released in Dec 2012). If you create a new document in Pages 4.3, save it to iCloud and then open it in iCloud using Safari, you will no longer be able to open the same document in Pages 4.3. When you try, you'll get an error that you need a newer version of Pages.
In other words, it's now imperative that you upgrade to the latest version of the iWorks apps that were released today as the earlier versions are NOT compatible with the iCloud apps.
Hope this helps.

The FAQ for iPad Pages has always made it clear that Pages import and export formats were Pages 09 only. Nobody here can tell why Apple made it that way, but you can give them your views here:

How to make JasperReports Server compatible with safari 5.1.7 version

Hi
My JasperReports Server - Pro is compatible with safari 4.0 browser and safari 5.0 browser but i want to make it compatible with safari 5.1.7 browser My jasperserver is having a proxy address like "abc.com" instead of localhost:8080/jasperserver-pro/login.html.
The problem is, Unable to login through Safari 5.1.7 browser, I guess facing a redirection problem. But i am able to log in with my actual address (localhost).
The above problem is only with safari 5.1.7 and is working perfectly with firefox, chrome, IE and safari 4.0 and safari 5.0.
I am sorry if this is not the right place to discuss the above issue.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards
Naveen

Hello,
Thanks for tip. I tried it but unfortunately it still needs 7.08 to work and I'm not sure why. Even worse is the automatic updater that runs just downloads 7.0. So a user downloads the update, then gets another error message saying they need an even newer version of reader. Very lame.
Plus, once you do get the 7.08 update and open the file you get no less than three pop ups about not saving the file, auto fill options, and one other I forget. Overall a very awkward way to view a very simple file.
I was hoping this would make it easier for customers to fill out a form but it looks like it will accomplish the opposite.
