App uses -moz-transform:scale and touch registration is out unless double tap to zoom in.

I'm having awful trouble with scaling. When I get the screen resolution of my tablet is says 1280x800. However if I scale my page to fit using -moz-transform:scale it overflows the page and I need to scale it down by 0.76 to make it fit. Strangely if I use portrait which reports as 800x1024 the page is then too small and I need to scale it up by 1.23 (note its -0.23 and +0.23 for landscape and portrait respectively).
If I avoid scaling by making the page the right size (adjusted by 0.76) then in landscape touch registration is correct with relation to the page. In portrait if I do the same then I can't press the buttons unless I double tap to zoom in.
I can't change the way this app works as it works perfectly well across all Windows and Linux platforms but I have these bizarre things happening on Android.
The main issue is touch not registering correctly. However, when its not working if I hold a button down I get a javascript message pop up offering 'Copy link' and 'Bookmark link' with the correct javascript reference but the function is not called.
Any hints on how to work this out very welcome.

Slightly closer. I've added <META name="viewport" content="width=device-width, height=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0"> to my top level container. This seems to stop firefox from doing an auto-zoom so my page is now properly displayed in both orientations. In landscape all works fine. In portrait however my navigation buttons at the bottom have no touch response unless I double tap to zoom in and then they work. Strangely, the buttons in the content area that are generated on the fly work correctly even after I zoom out again.
Any ideas anyone?

    Hello HoopsMD,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that the display on your iPod nano (7th generation) is not responding to your touch as you would expect. In this situation, I would recommend reading over the attached article and working through the steps within to help resolve this issue. 
    iPod nano (7th generation): Hardware troubleshooting - Apple Support
    Display
    Follow these steps if your iPod doesn't respond to your input or has a display-related issue.
    Screen is unresponsive and displays Apple logo or white screen
    Reset iPod by holding down the Sleep/Wake button and Home button until you see the Apple logo appear. If the Apple logo appears on the display, connect iPod to a computer and verify that it appears in iTunes.
    If the Apple logo does not appear, or if the iPod is not seen in iTunes, connect it to iTunes and try to restore.
    Touch screen does not accept input
    Clean the screen with a microfiber polishing cloth.
    Do not wear gloves while using the touchscreen. Do not use the touchscreen with wet hands or immediately after applying hand lotion. Moisture affects touchscreen behavior in the same manner as it affects a trackpad.
    If you have a protective plastic sheet or film on the touchscreen, try removing it, because it may be preventing the touchscreen from working properly.
    The current application may be unresponsive; try resetting iPod by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button and the Home buttons simultaneously for a least six seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Sync with iTunes and restore the iPod.
    Have a great day,
    Joe

  • In Safari, my iMac sometimes zooms way too much and will not zoom back.  I have a wireless mouse set to zoom in and out on double tap, but the excessive zooms happen with no taps.

    In Safari, my iMac sometimes zooms way too much and will not zoom back.  I have a wireless mouse set to zoom in and out on double tap, but the excessive zooms happen with no taps.  A page zooms in so less than 1/4 of the page is visible and nothing I do will zoom back out, command minus doesn't do it, double tap on mouse does not zoom out, and the window will not scroll to show any of the rest of the page.  reloading the page does not help.  Loading a different page gives me a normal view again.

    If it were a tweaked setting, it should happen less randomly.  And there should be no settings that could override the zoom setting in unversal Access and the Mouse zoom preferences. 
    In addition, this only happens in Safari 6, and seems to happen more fredquently on some websites and not on others.  That suggests some sort of conflict in the site code with Safari and Apple wireless mouse code.  It does not happen in Mail, Word, Excel, Photoshop, Illustrator, or other software as far as I can tell.

  • How do I recover data from a single App using an iTunes backup and put it back on my iPhone?

    An app I use (Text Me 2) automatically cleared conversation history. I have an iTunes back-up of it from last year. I tried searching a ton and found articles, but never found a step-by-step article from start to finish describing how I can get only that app's data back on my iPhone without having to restore the entire thing (otherwise I lose all of my last 6 months of content)? All the articles I read stopped after using the iPhone backup extractor to extract, and didn't tell me how to get that back onto my iPhone. I use iTunes on Mac OS Mavericks also.
    Thanks in advance!

    Then what's with all of the programs these two responses mention and being able to restore a single app data?
    If you know you are going to do this in advance and have a jailbroken phone, use AppBackup which you can get through cydia. Otherwise, if this need arises after having restored already, you can get the data from an iPhone backup using iPhone Backup Extractor and/or a Time Machine backup (you can google to find the location of the backups, but I think it's in Application Support > Mobile Sync > Backups), and then restore the documents/library folders of the application using iExplorer (which is by the same people who made iPhone Explorer but was changed for legal reasons and now is slightly more user friendly and suited for this purpose. I just did this to restore my Angry Birds scores/data among other things.
    and
    I do that with iTools. You can backup each app with its data into an ipa file to the computer, to restore it individually. This allows you to merge apps with its data from different backups.
    ...not to mention I found several answers like this in various forums...

  • Transform Scale and Translate Math

    I am using images to create my tab backgrounds. The center image is one pixel in width. To stretch it the length of the text on the tab. The problem is I don't understand the math I need to figure out the x value (below its 1-8.5) that will place the image back in the correct position.
    Can someone help me with the math I need to calculate its original X position?
    Also, how do I find the current width of a Text object? I have seen examples that used text.currentWidth, but it does not appear to be available anymore.
    var center = ImageView {
         image: Image { url: "file:images/tab_center.gif"}
         x: bind left.getBoundsX() + left.getBoundsWidth()
         transform: [Scale.scale(50, 1), Translate.translate(-18.5, 0)]

  • I purchased Season 5 of Dexter using the "pass" yesterday and itunes is downloading24 episodes (a double order).  How do i stop it? How do you talk to a customer service person?

    I purchased Season 5 of Dexter using a "pass" yesterday and today Itunes is downloading 24 episodes (a double order).  How do I stop it?
    Did I order twice by mistake?  How do I contact an itunes customer service person?

    If you ordered it in HD, then you get the SD version as well ( for viewing on ipod/iphone).
    You cannot stop it.  There is no phone number to call.
    You can click "Support" at the top if this page and click the link under "Contact Us" to contact them.
    You can look at your purchase history to see what you were billed for, but I would guess that you are seeing the HD and SD version as you should.

  • Wavelet transform scale and time information

    Hi there -
    I am using the wavelet transform for a non-stationary signal. I am not having trouble getting the coefficients from the transfrom but is there I way I can find the scale/frequency and time information from just the wavelet VI. I see no way I can get at this information. Also, I am pretty certain Labview uses the DWT when computing the transform but does Labview have the option to do the CWT?
    The reason is because I want to plot time vs. frequency vs. amplitude and I need all three to do it properly.
    Thanks for your help,
    Cameron

    Hi, Cameron.
    This screenshot shows one DWT and one CWT VI, and you'll notice that the CWT has an output called scale info which contains the time information and the scale (frequency) information. (In addition, LabVIEW has several other wavelet VIs.)
    If this doesn't answer your question, please let me know. Have a nice afternoon!

  • How to implement OData based BASIC Authentication using HTML, JavaScript for Mobile Apps using Apache Cordova/PhoneGap and datajs-1.1.1.js library

    Hello,
    I have an issue with OData based BASIC authentication for iOS App created using HTML, JavaScript, SAP UI5, OData and Apache Cordova/PhoneGap.
    Please check the post here http://scn.sap.com/thread/3527245
    Request you to kindly reply on the above given link.
    Thanks and Regards,

    Hello Prathik,
    The code which I am using for OData based BASIC Authentication, for my Mobile App is as below.
       var onSuccess = function(data) {
       alert("We are Through"); //Just to check that the OData request was sucessful
       var onError = function(err) {
       switch(err.response.statusCode) {  
       case 403 : {
       window.alert("Error Code - 403, Service unreachable ");
       break;
       case 401 : {
       window.alert("The credentials are incorrect or missing!");
       break;  
    // dataUserName and dataPassword are the two variables, in which I am storing my Username and Password, respectively.
       var connectionRequest = {
       requestUri: "ODATA SERVICE URL GOES HERE/",
       headers: { Authorization : 'Basic ' + Base64.encode(dataUsername + ":" + dataPassword) },
       method: "POST"
       OData.request( connectionRequest, onSuccess, onError);

  • Some app use only channel 1 and 2 of a 6 channel sound card

    Hi,
    I use a Native Instruments Audio 6 soundcard, that has 6 channels. In Mac's Audio Midi Setup speaker configuration I configured that channel 5 and 6 have to be used for stereo. This works for quite a lot of apps, like Safari and iTunes, but other apps, like Chrome and XBMC, route their audio through channel 1 & 2. How can this be solved?
    This issue in the link below I had earlier, which I have fixed. It could be related, but it is not the same.

  • I installed Facebook from the app store on my iPad and it kicks me out

    I have installed Facebook on my iPad and when I scroll down the page to look at posting it
    KIcks me out or if I share a photo it kicks me out
    Can anyone help

    Hello sandyfromcroydon,
    It seems you are unable to post photos using the Facebook app on your iPad. Have you checked your photo privacy settings at any point? Take a look at the following article which explains the privacy controls, and where you can find them:
    Understanding privacy and Location Services on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch with iOS 8 - Apple Support
    Privacy controls in iOS 8
    iOS 8 gives you control over which apps have access to information stored on your iOS device. For example, you can allow a social-networking app to use your camera, allowing you to take and upload pictures. You can also grant access to your contacts, so a messaging app can find any friends that are already using the same app.
    You can modify privacy settings at Settings > Privacy. You can select a type of data from this list to see which apps have asked for permission to use that data. An app won't appear on the list until it asks permission to use your data. You can add or remove permission from any app that has asked for access to data. An app can use your data only if you have given it your permission.
    If you allow third-party apps or websites to use your data or your current location, you're subject to their terms, privacy policies, and practices. You should review the terms, privacy policies, and practices of the apps and websites to understand how they use your location and other information. Information Apple collects will be treated in accordance with Apple's Privacy Policy.

  • Why does my iphone say i have a message but when i click on the app i dont have one and if i get out of the app it still says the messages are there.?

    When i go on my phone it says i have 3 new messages but when i click on it i really dont. I turned off and turned my phone on 3 times and it still says i have 3 new messages how do i stop that. Without actually turning on the bager icon thing that pops up on the app.

    Hey there Samimanis_.
    It sounds like your notification for messages is showing that you have a few mesages but when you go into the app, there are no new messages. I would start by signing out of your Apple ID in Settings > Messages. Then close the running apps on the phone:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    When you have done that restart the phone, sign back in, and try again:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the issue persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes, and restore it:
