Attention Apple and Ebay - Safari NEEDS to fixed ASAP

I am getting SOOOOO tired of this. Apple and Ebay need to sit down and figure out these issues. I sent this to Apple and, HOPEFULLY, they will start listening. I just can't deal with this anymore. I can't stand Firefox but I am being forced to use it. Here are the issues I am experiencing that I forwarded to Apple. I am trying to tell ebay, but Live Chat has stopped working, too.
1. To all the people still experiencing the "t" issue in Live Chat....CAPITAL T works fine. You have to look like you are shouting at the ebay rep (and explain why you look that way), but you will be able to type normally with the letter t. I figured this out by accident over a year ago. I keep a text edit file with the explanation as to why I am "screaming" at them because its a paragraph and takes too long to type.
2. Live chat does not work AT ALL. I am never connected to the server. The kicker??? As of last night, it was no longer working in Firefox. So, I am now downloading Camino. Hopefully it works because I need to contact them ASAP (I bought an iMac and the seller is a no show).
3. The following are all ebay (not apple) issues, I am sure:
Playground searching does not work unless you are in the annoying, flash snapshot view.
Sometimes, I will want to search All Categories or Just Comp&Netwrk and it automatically jumps to a specific category no matter what I do.
My feedback rating was 220 and now it reads 219. No, I do not have a negative or neutral (I have 100%) so my rating should not have gone down.
When I tried to pay for an item last night, ebay takes you to a page that says you have to log into Paypal. But when you get there, the Login button is just an IMAGE. I had to go to Firefox to pay.
4. Ebay pages fail to load. I have to keep hitting refresh (sometimes 15-20 x's) to get the auction page to load.
Lots of others are experiencing listing issues. I use GarageSale so this is a non-issue for me. Apple, I love Safari, so much so that I don't even WANT other browsers on my computer, but it is IMPOSSIBLE to use ebay without SEVERAL other browsers. This is ridiculous and unacceptable. We need this FIXED. I have experienced these issues (some longer than others) for over 2 YEARS. Please, meet with ebay and repair the app.

I agree, but it is not just ebay. I do alot of searching and many sites won't connect the first time or i get "can't find the server' but less than a minute later I get it. This should not be and I cannot download the new safari I have 10.4.11 and it won't let me. Also, I can't get me.com or .mac any more directly. I used to, but my mac will not recognize the passwords now or the site. I have to go through the apple site although I have paid through next april. I am ready to scream when I have paid for one of the most expensive home computers out there.

  • Apple and ebay doesn't get along :(

    Hi all,
    Is there hostility between Apple and ebay? I love safari but it still does not work properly with ebay and most recently paypal. On ebay's "live help" feature, certain key strokes does not work. And paypal which is owned by ebay, the "next or prev" button is not displayed on the page. I couldn't get to the next page of my account activity listings because this button was missing. If this is not hostility and just a bug, how do I get the good folks at apple to fix this? BTW, firefox is an alternative that works interestingly enough; I'd rather stick with Safari but...

    This from Rich R at eBay on 1st August 2008:
    'Some Apple Safari folk were over here last Friday and I got to meet in person with the main Safari Evangelist from Apple who I had been in communication with on this -1015 issue.
    She confirmed that it was a Safari bug to do with corruption of gzipped content in Safari's cache in some cases. I pushed her for when the fix was going to be released but did not get a date. She did say they were going to have to look at accelerating releases for Safari given the competition from Firefox which release much more often. Based on her description of the problem, it seems like turning off gzip would completely eliminate the problem for Safari users.
    I did make inquiries about turning off gzip for Safari users and the general feedback was strong concerns about how much that would slowdown page loading for all Safari users. It's not clear what circumstances make some users be far more impacted by this bug than others. Some rarely see it while others, it seems, are plagued by it. As it stands, I don't see that I'm going to be able to make a convincing case for turning it off. Your faked user agent string is an interesting way around that problem. However, setting up the suppression is not a simple thing to accomplish as there are many, many servers that would have to be tweaked.
    I did a bunch of digging looking for options in Safari or WebKit that would allow configuring the header that specifies the forms of compression accepted but could find no way to tweak this. I wish there was a way because then you could perform the experiment. The other way to try it if you have the tech knowledge, is to send your Safari traffic through a proxy and have code in the proxy remove the accept gzip header if the host site is eBay.'

    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5s. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
    To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
    iPod Service Support and Costs
    iPhone Service Support and Costs
    iPad Service Support and Costs
    There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task. Start with Google to search for these.

    8.0.2 - problem 1 - unable to scroll screen down or up when the keyboard is present. When typing text, I am unable to see the text I am writing due to this problem.

    Have you tried resetting your iPad? You will not lose any data. 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Safari and amazon - toxic - needs a fix

    My Safari browser seems to have become entwined with Amazon.com in a way that is destroying functionality on the Amazon website. I've confirmed that the problem is not on Amazon's end, and Apple Support has been unable to resolve the problem. I believe the problem is that something has attached itself to Safari that is linking it in a toxic way to Amazon. Anyone ever hear of this? Check it out: After browsing Amazon briefly the links stop working and I'm given a generic "sorry we're having a problem but we're working on it" screen, after which I can no longer access Amazon unless I restart the computer.
    And most strangely, even if I start with the secure (https) address, I end up with Safari telling me the website certificate is not valid. The certificate turns out to be www.amazon.com.br.  This is Amazon in Portuguese, for the Brazilian market! Today I was completely unable to log in, although there was nothing wrong with my account. The Amazon rep got me running again, but suggested I switch to Firefox for Amazon, which he claims is more compatible.
    So far I've emptied the cache and deleted Amazon cookies many times. I've also reset the system management controller. Any other suggestions? Should I bite the bullet and reset Safari?
    Is there a way to look into the background of Safari and see if amazon.com.br is hiding there somewhere? Is there a scan I could run to see if there's malware that's causing the problem?
    And lastly, should I simply download Firefox in order to browse Amazon only?  I'd really like to solve the problem, not put a bandaid on it.
    Thanks for any wisdom. I browse Amazon a lot so this is really a pain.

    I missed the fact that you're running 10.6, so you don't have a Recovery partition.
    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up guest users” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.  The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • Blackberry HUB "Show Read Filed Emails" ON AND OFF button SERIOUS Gmail PROBLEM NEED BUG FIX ASAP!

    Its been for years (starting from 10OS Version 10.2 ) I couldn't see filed/labeled emails in my Z30/Z10 Blackberry HUB of my Gmail account, but I just downloaded Blackberry Blend and it started to show all my filed/labeled emails, but I still cant see them in my Blackberry HUB! Maybe you can tell me how to make Read Filed Emails visible in Blackberry HUB too?
    Blackberry HUB >> Settings >> Display and Actions:
    Show Read Filed Emails is ON
    Show Sent Emails is ON
    Both are turned on, but I still cant see them like on Blackberry Blend.. On search field then I type specific email from filed/label from my Gmail account I immediately finds it, but then I go back to Blackberry HUB all I can see just emails from inbox and single sent emails and YES "SYNC ALL EMAIL FOLDERS" IS SET TO ON AND "SYNC TIMEFRAME" IS SET TO FOREVER (''Sync All Email Folders'' is set ON and ''Sync Timeframe'' is set FOREVER).

  • What should i do if my iPod is stuck on the apple and doesn't need a update

    My iPod all of a sudden blacked out now it's stuck on the apple sign, i tried plugging it in to iTunes but it says it does'nt need an update. What should i do to fix it?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • I upgraded to Mac OS X 10.6.8 and Epson Printer Software update 2.7 on the 29th of June and now I cannot print anything.  I have contacted Epson and Apple and both have tried to fix the problem without success. I am using a MacBook

    Does anybody else have this problem?  Epson and Apple don't have any solution.  The message I get from the printer is as follows:
    Error/library/printers/EPSON/Inkjet Printer2/Filter/rasteroescpII.app/Conents/MacOS/rasteroescpIIfailed

    Thanks for the replies guys.  Epson put me through a complex set of instructions to install an earlier driver.  The problem was not solved.  Apple also tried to solve the provlem by getting rid of the printer, unplugging it etc and then re starting and checking computer/printer communication by printing a test page from the system preferences/Pring & Fax options.  This worked proving the the computer and printer are talking to each other. 
    The printer works properly as a stand alone unit.  That is, I can copy and print and scan and print with no problems.
    The Apple support guy didn't suggest any Apple alternative drivers so I assume there aren't any.
    Neither the Epson nor Apple assistants seemed interested in the printer generated error message.  I would have thought it would at least provide a clue to the problem to someone with technical expertise.
    It seems that there are a lot of problems with the 10.6.8 update so maybe Apple will get to work and bring it up to scratch.  I hope it gets things right soon.

  • HT2810 apple cinema display sometimes needs to be unplugged and plugged back in multiple times to turn on  any ideas for a fix?

    apple cinema display will not allays start
    i need to plug and unplug multiple times for ti to start.
    any thoughts ideas would be helpful thanks

    Okay, Mr. Easthills, you have an imac, but yet you mention apple cinema display....Hmmm, curious. you could try zapping the PRAM, hold down command (apple?), Option+P+R keys while rebooting mac. Hold down for 3 chimes, then let go and boot normally. I have this problem too, and I have a 20" widescreen apple cinema display(DVI connector--did I just date myself or what?),anyways, it's behaving itself now okay, but it tended to go dark right in the middle of whatever I was doing, and only unplugging the power cord to the display, and replugging in it would fix it for a while. sometimes it would happen again, and again the same solution.  As to why it happens now with Yosemite, I don't know .  This dear old monitor has lasted me about 8 years and it's still going just fine.. not state of the art anymore, though...
    oh well, good luck to you
