Bookmarks problem in Safari, please help!
When I open safari, and this is for the Bookmarks Bar, I will go to click one of my bookmarks, and they wont be clicked! It's really weird. Like usually when you click a bookmark, it'll show you it has been clicked. I will click it many many times before it even realizes that it's being clicked. I don't think it is my mouse, and I am not double clicking! So any suggestions? Bug? Safari problem? What?
Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

Lots of problems with safari- Please help!
My safari has not been working properly for the last few weeks. It started that when I went to open a new tab- the address I typed in tab 2 would open in tab 1 and change the page in tab 1 and tab 2 would say untitled page or something similar. Now I cannot open websites i.e. netflix.com imdb.com and other webpages are opening not formatted correctly i.e. amazon.com
I have cleared my cookies, emptied my cache and reset safari. I also updated my version of safari.
I do not know what else to do and am getting frustrated! Any help would be much appreciated!Hi,
closing unexpectedly quite often.
Could be third party unsupported add ons preventing pages from loading. Troubleshooting help for that here.

Accidentally i have deleted the Safari, please help me how to reinstall it back, I'm using MacBookAir - MAC OS X - Version 10.5.8
Thanks
DimitrisIt would appear that your system is somewhat mangled, and it is time for some general 'servicing'.
Start here:
Repairing permissions is important, and should always be carried out both before and after any software installation or update.
Go to Disk Utility (this is in your Utilities Folder in your Application folder) and click on the icon of your hard disk (not the one with all the numbers).
In First Aid, click on Repair Permissions.
This only takes a minute or two in Tiger, but much longer in Leopard.

and here:

An article on troubleshooting Permissions can be found here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2963
By the way, you can ignore any messages about SUID or ACL file permissions, as explained here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1448?viewlocale=en_US
If you were having any serious problems with your Mac you might as well complete the exercise by repairing your hard disk as well. You cannot do this from the same start-up disk. Reboot from your install disk (holding down the C key). Once it opens, select your language, and then go to Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select your hard disk as before and click Repair.
Once that is complete reboot again from your usual start-up disk.

Question
I am not able to launch FF everytime i try to open it, it says FF has to submit a crash report,and restore yr tabs. I even tried doing that and the report was submitted too, but still FF did not start, and the problem still persists, please help me solve this issue
'''(in English)'''Hi Danny,
Per my understanding that you can't get the expect result by using the expression "=Count(Fields!TICKET_STATUS.Value=4) " to count the the TICKET_STATUS which value is 4, the result will returns the count of all the TICKET_STATUS values(206)
but not 180, right?
I have tested on my local environment and can reproduce the issue, the issue caused by you are using the count() function in the incorrect way, please modify the expression as below and have a test:
=COUNT(IIF(Fields!TICKET_STATUS.Value=4 ,1,Nothing))
or
=SUM(IIF(Fields!TICKET_STATUS=4,1,0))
If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.
Regards,
Vicky Liu

It won't let me drag an effect from the browser all of a sudden. I have always been able to do before. I am using effects from favorites bin and when I try to drag it to the timeline, it won't move. I have never had this problem before. Please help.
P.S. I have tried other effects including transitions and it still won't let me drag.Wow that was really quick, thank you so much. Im not sure at all which version it was because i said it was around 4 years ago he bought it. I know it isn't under his username, since he's a PC person (ugh) so i know its probably registered to one of our actual names. isn't there some way to look it up since we did register it, because I'm not even sure where the disks are from when we bought it (we've moved a lot and also have two storage lockers, i know i would have kept it with other disks) but my cd rom drive is actually broken on my computer as well ( i think it got stepped on and is now squished and won't eject or run disks.)
So is there anyway they can look up that its registered to one of our names since we did register it when we bought and installed it, or do i really have to find the disk with some sort of proof of purchase (i know there would be no receipt after all this time)
either way, ill do what you suggested to the best of my abilities and thank you so much for answering my questions, i can't even open the program as its incompatible and find out the info from that) so I'm in a bit of a pickle and your response was so thorough and it didn't seem to be posted long enough to even write a well researched response, thanks, all the best,

Error getting license. License server communication problem: E_ADEPT_NO_TOKEN. Please help
I try to download my ebooks on my laptop but receive the onscreen message, Error getting license, License server commucication problem: E_ADEPT_NO_TOKEN. Please help?
It means, the URLLink.ACSM file is corrupted. Please contact the book store and ask them to check whether the configuration in the server side is correct for that book.
One of the simple setting in the server which can case this issue is, setting the book for loan in server and providing the purchase option in the book store or vise verse.
Hope this solves your problem. -
i tried to sync my ipad to my itunes using usb but it will say not charging,, i can sync with my ipod touch without any problem... please help..
From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4060 :
The fastest way to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter. When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge, but only when it's in sleep mode.
iPods need less power to charge them (their wall charger is half the power of the iPad's, 5W as opposed to 10W), so are more likely to charge via USB -
My Iphone lost Safari, please help me restore it
My Iphone lost Safari, please help me restore it
So a Spotlight search on your phone to search for Safari and click the App. Once you verify that it is still on there you'll just have to look for it.
If the App isn't listed, try a restart/reboot of the iPhone holding the home button and sleep/wake switch. If the App still doesn't show itself in the OS or via Spotlight, restore the phone via iTunes.

Pixelated images in safari, please help.
Hi everyone,
Hoping someone can help me with a issue i have with my new macbook pro.
When browsing the net, safari and firefox show really pixelated images. I thought it might be my internet connection compressing data or something, but i have tried other computers on the same internet connection and the images show perfect...
So this makes me think its the macbook. I have upgraded snow leopard from 10.6 to 10.6.2 and updated safari, but unfortunately this didnt help my problem. So now i have ended up here, asking you people, coz im out of ideas.
I will include some screen shots so you can see exactly what i mean.
Notice the bad quality images and even on google's banner it is pixelated heaps...
Please help if you can. Its very annoying. Cheers.

http://i134.photobucket.com/albums/q93/Bonustokin/randon/Screenshot2010-02-13at1 00814PM.pngYes, I see the big ugly squares. They are what appears whenever extremely heavy JPEG compression is applied to a low-resolution image tht has relatively large areas of similar colors. Something somewhere is applying such compression to the pages, or portions of them, that you are viewing in your browser(s). Your MBP is not doing that: it can't. Either the page images (or parts of them) are being compressed by the website owners or, if every web page is affected, they are being compressed by your ISP in the process of being transmitted to you, as Gordito suggests. That would greatly increase the speed of page loading, but at the expense of image quality. You wouldn't see the image degradation on an iPhone or cell phone — the screen is too small — but on the MBP's high-resolution display it would be much more apparent, IF the MBP were receiving the signal in the same highly compressed form as the phone. If the MBP receives the same web pages through an ISP that doesn't over-compress them, they'll look the way they ought to look. So if you are receiving these web pages through a cellular ISP rather than through a broadband connection, take the MBP to a wifi hotspot and connect through wifi instead. I bet things will look different then.
Compressing images is something a web browser can't do: a browser just displays the signal that comes to it. -
All my bookmarks suddenly disapered, tried recovering them as per the instructions on the help page, but no matter what date i try it fails saying no backup! Now firefox says bookmark added when i try to add them but nothing appears in the bookmarks drop down mene, so i cant even add my old bookmarks manually, driving me mad please help.
A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Trackpad and Mouse click problem!! PLEASE HELP!
I have been having this weird problem which is having to click several times on something of it to work. Mostly I have the problem with Safari and sibelius 6.0 which I work with.It doesn't click and its frustrating.I bet its not the trackpad as I happen to have a magic mouse and it's the same with that too.I have to click several times on for example "Close" the tab button for it to work.
PLEASE HELP!Kirstiee, login to another User account and test it in there.
sahba99, you would need to drag the whole preference folder to the Desktop and reboot. If it works, you know it's a preference file in that folder. Keep dragging a bunch back at a time and reboot (or log out and back in) until you narrow it down to the corrupt file. It's kind of like troubleshooting an extension conflict back in the pre-OS X days.
