All I get on web pages is the letter "A" it looks like a keyboard button.

Not all the type but most on some pages is just a keyboard button looking letter "A".
I'm assuming it's a font issue but I don't know for sure.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Michael

Hi Michael --
Does it look like capital A's in boxes?
Here's great help, According to our font expert here, Kurt Lang --
+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.+

Web page inside the Director Stage

Hello All,
Is there a way for me to tell Director to bring up a web page
inside the stage?
I would like to have my own buttons on the lower half of the
window and a internet browser on the upper half.
Also I would like the user not to be able to access the URL
bar.
Thank you all

If it's PC only, you can use the ActiveX control for free.
One problem is if
it's for filling out forms the tab key doesn't work.

After upgrading to 8.0 the add-on compatability tool runs and the Getting Started web page loads every time the browser starts.

After upgrading to 8.0 from 7.0.1 every time I start FF I get the add-on compatibility tool to run and the Getting Started web page loads along with my homepage in separate tabs as well. So far I have tried running the installer again, disabling all add-0ns and custom settings and restarting and turning off automatic updates. Nothing worked there. I got the same behavior each time. I don't know what else to try other than a full uninstall and reinstall. Something I'd like to avoid if it's possible because of the time involved. This is the second time I have posted regarding this issue. The first time I didn't get a response. A solution or a possible workaround would be greatly appreciated if anyone knows of any. As a staff member and a global forum moderator for an anti-virus company I understand how hectic things can be at times but some feedback, good or bad, on this issue would be very welcomed! Regards, Ritchie...

Hi michaell, thanks for the reply. I tried everything in the Preferences are not saved link you provided and nothing worked there. If creating a new profile will delete all my add-ons and custom settings I might as well just do a complete uninstall and reinstall. That actually would be easier. That article told me how to save my bookmarks though so I don't have to loose those which is nice. I don't know if this makes any difference but there is a discrepancy between the preference file in the article which is: prefs.js and what's showing on my PC which is: prefs with no .js suffix. I tried to rename the file to prefs.js and restarted. No luck there either. It just created another prefs file. I guess we've pretty much exhausted all the avenues to try! I'm just going to go ahead and do a reinstall when I get the time. Thanks so much for your help michaell. I do appreciate the effort. Regards, Ritchie...

The new Pages in Mavericks OS: How can I get a ruler down the left side? When I click on "Show Rulers," all I get is a ruler at the top.

In the new Mavericks OS, when I use Pages, I cannot find a way to get a ruler on the left side of the document. When I click on "Show rulers," all I get is a ruler at the top of the document. How can I get a ruler on the left side?

Wait for an Apple update to Pages which is suppose to put the vertical ruler feature back in.

<Email Edited by Host>

It's a really bad idea to post your email address - it's an invitation to spam - and I've asked the Hosts to remove it. (Even though I've now noticed you mis-spelled it! - anyway, never post your address in a forum.)
You have a site here: http://virginiagordon.com/www.virginiagordon.com/WELCOME.html
If that's not the page you are having trouble with, what is that page's URL?

I Just bought a IPAD2 and I can connect to my home wifi but I can't connect to any free hotspots. My Ipad shows the connections but I can't get any web pages. what do I do?

Many free wi-fi hotspots require that you register first - agreeing to their terms and conditions, etc. This is usually provided via a web page with Safari provided immediately after connecting. If the register page is provided via Flash, you won't see it and you won't be able to register.

Can't get a web page to validate with meta tags with w3c??

I have created a website for my school projects, and every week I have to add something to it for the course, and every monday I have to submit my code in a zipped folder to the professor, after running it through the w3c validation page, and passing, This current week, I was instructed to swork on SEO for my site, and add meta tags to the site to fish for traffic, and then I have to validate it through w3c and submit. Well, I did not complete this because w3c would not validate my page until I removed every single meta tag from the code, and I cannot for the life of me understand the error that is holding me back. So, in an effort to see if I could get some help here, I have included my code, and will try to explain what is happening and the code as well as the error from the validator service. Please have a look, help me, because I am totally lost here....
Thanks in advance!!

✉
You have used the attribute named above in your document, but the document type you are using does not support that attribute for this element. This error is often caused by incorrect use of the "Strict" document type with a document that uses frames (e.g. you must use the "Transitional" document type to get the "target" attribute), or by using vendor proprietary extensions such as "marginheight" (this is usually fixed by using CSS to achieve the desired effect instead).
This error may also result if the element itself is not supported in the document type you are using, as an undefined element will have no supported attributes; in this case, see the element-undefined error message for further information.
How to fix: check the spelling and case of the element and attribute, (Remember XHTML is all lower-case) and/or check that they are both allowed in the chosen document type, and/or use CSS instead of this attribute. If you received this error when using the <embed> element to incorporate flash media in a Web page, see the FAQ item on valid flash.
What in the world does this mean, because I am seriously lost on this, and the only way I could get around this was to completely remove the entire line, "<meta name="" content="Zachariah Lloyd, basketball, computers" /><meta fttp-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />", which removed all of my meta tags completely, in order to validate it?? I cannot see what is setting this thing off like that, I have never gottena validation error before, and I now know that they are written as meaningless gibberish that does not even remotely explain what is wrong, at least not to me....
Please help!!!!

Line 4 and line 5 are trying to do the same thing. Take out the
<meta fttp-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
line entirely and you will be good.

Can't ping or get printer web page or print via hostname

Ok, this has me stupped on my iMac running Mavericks. I just added my Kyocera printer as an IP printer but used the host name instead of an IP address, sounds simple so far.
Before doing this, I change the default host name in the Kyocera printer to "Kyocera" (without quotations). Add printer found the device and came up with the correct PPD for the model number and all was good at this point. I sent a printer test page which again worked fine.
I then opened Safari and entered the printers IP address to make sure I could bring up the configuration web page for the device and this indeed works fine, at this point I retype the address in the address bar as Kyocera.local and again the page refreshed and came up fine, Yippee!! so I added it to Safari's Favourites Bar, all good!
Since then, I can still get to the devices home config page via the IP address, but it will no longer find the page via the save Kyocera.local link in the favorites bar or retyping it in the address bar.
I have tried network utility and pinging the device, IP address ping works fine but Kyocera.local says unknown host. Tried the next obvious step and that was to see if printing fails now as well and indeed it too fails as it was still configured to print to the host name as it was when I successfully printed the inbuilt printer test page. I deleted the printer and added the IP printer via the IP address not the hostname and printer now prints fine.
Does anyone know why printing via the host name and bringing up the printers config web page both worked for the first time but fails from there on in????
DNS settings were set to Auto from ISP, I also tried google's 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 and even just adding the local bob router address in as an option but nothing works, but it did initially.
I install and repair printers for a living and have come across this when installing scan to FTP on a mac and rarely if ever can I get it to work scanning to FTP via the Mac's name for example, Jims-imac.local, just won't find it with or without the .local, but change it to the Mac's IP address and scan to FTP works great. Problem is that if the customer has their Mac getting IP address via DHCP, I have to advise the customer that if scan to FTP stops working, to check that the IP address on the Mac has not changed, and if it has, then change the scan to FTP settings on the scanner to the new IP address that the Mac has now been given from the DHCP server.
Not the best way to go about it. Why can't Mac's just find devices and devices find Mac's? Windows is so straight forward, what am I missing?
Any help would be appreciated.

Damo

Hi,
First of all let me clarify your trial.
Where is your monitoring server?
Is it behind inside or outside interface (please share ip adress)?
From config it seems, it can be reach via outside interface. Then you have to make snmp check on outside interface, not on inside (cannot make a snmp/ping check on inside interface with request comming through outside inteface - it simply won't work).
From the first check of routing table, I would suggest:
delete : route outside MCCC_Outside 255.255.255.255 1.1.1.1 1 - doesn't make a sense route host address, when it's directly connected network (and more, route 1.1.1.2 to 1.1.1.1, when 1.1.1.1 is vlan2 interface)
change : route outside 172.31.0.0 255.255.0.0 192.168.1.1 1; route outside Domain 255.255.0.0 192.168.1.1 1 - you should consider route it to 1.1.1.2 (if this is your next hop address at WAN).
route outside VLAN10 255.255.255.0 MCCC_Outside 1 - why?
I would use default route to somewhere at 1.1.1.0/24 range - next hop (router).

Pavel

First of all thank you for the reply,
1. I deselected: enable plug-ins
Quit Safari- then relaunch-- DID NOT work, I still have all "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" IN BOXES ON EVERY WEB SITE I TRY TO VISIT.
BUT AGAIN THE APPLE WEB SITE I AM ABLE TO TYPE YOU THIS MESSAGE. ONLY APPLE SITE WORKS
2. Also tried to turn off any extensions ( i did not have any but turned off-- DID NOT work
3. I did try to troubleshoot the safari plist file.
I looked at some of your prior posts and tried those plist attempts. I tried to move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the preferences--AGAIN THIS DID NOTHING.
BUT......I tried this but not total solution. I went on my other mac--I opened Safari ( i think 4.03) but again another mac, I then went to Firefox web site and I COPY AND PASTED THE ACTUAL WEB SITE IN AND PUT IT ON A SMALL FLASH DRIVE--THEN COPY AND PASTED IT INTO THE ADDRESS WINDOW OF SAFARI 5.03, AND HIT RETURN-- IT THEN WENT TO THE FIREFOX WEBSITE AND IT VIEWED IT PROPERLY, SO I DOWNLOADED FIREFOX AND TRIED TO RUN FIREFOX.
AND LOW AND BEHOLD FIREFOX WORKS.
BUT I STILL CANT GET SAFARI TO WORK
again, i still get ON EVERY SITE USING SAFARI 5.03 " AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" capital "A"s in little boxes on every web site. Almost like some code is not being read correctly by Safari?
please advise some more if you can
thanks

p.s I used caps so you know what i tried, so i am not yelling, sorry for the caps.

When I open safari, I get a blank page and the beach ball.

When I open safari, I get a blank page and the beach ball. If I try to go to a website, it will load up to a certain point sometimes—the .com of www.facebook.com for instance—but other times, nothing at all.
I've fixed this once before by deleting some files in the library folder—extensions & preferences I believe—and choosing not to have plug-ins selected, then restarting the whole computer—rather than just safari. It will work fine for a day, or maybe 3 at the most, before I have to repeat the process all over again. I'm sure it's because I usually put plug-ins back on once I get it to work, because you can't really use the internet without using plug-ins. But I'm using Chrome right now, as I do when I'm too lazy or too in a rush to try the whole process of getting safari to work again, and I don't have a single issue with it.
My question is really, what plug-in could cause this to happen repeatedly? It's not like I'm going to websites that may have malware on them. I spend most of my day going to some of the most visited websites on the internet.
Is there a known bug out there, because Java has been overrunning concurrently with this happening. It's CPU % runs around 100. I quit the process, but it doesn't change anything. So, other than the fan turning on, I have not had any popup telling me that safari has crashed, that I'm not connected to the internet, or that something went horribly, horribly wrong. I'm pretty sure Safari things it's running fine, but it's not.
Thanks in advance.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing.
Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects.
Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then either copy or drag it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
Step 1
Copy or drag — do not type — the line below into the Terminal window, then press return:
kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}'
Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered (the text, please, not a screenshot.) You can omit the final line ending in “$”.
Step 2
Repeat with this line:
sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix)|edu\.mit|org\.(amavis|apache|cups|isc|ntp|postfix|x)/{print $3}'
This time, you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning.
Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step.
Step 3
launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|edu\.mit|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}'
Step 4
ls -1A /e*/mach* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts 2> /dev/null
Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting.
Step 5
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' 2> /dev/null
Remember, steps 1-5 are all drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste, whichever you prefer — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output.
You can then quit Terminal.
