Bug in 5.1: cant open links to audio files in Safari anymore.

Before, if click a link to an mp3 file in safari it would play it with the quicktime. After upgrade to 5.1 i see just a black page for about 30s (even no usual "downloading" wheel in upper corner), and then nothing. Connecting via 3G, but as said, before the update the same links were working fine.
please fix!

Please post the link to the mp3 file or detailed steps on how to get to the link in Safari.

Opening links to pdf files using safari

While using safari and clicking on a link to a pdf file, a new page loads that is just totally black. If I use the firefox browser and click on the same link, a new page opens and displays the pdf perfectly.
While using safari, if I choose to download the pdf file to desktop, and then click on it, it opens fine using preview.

Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
Step 1
If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print or save PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to do so by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar should appear under the cursor. Click the printer or disk icon.
Step 2
There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
Step 3
If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
and check the box marked
          Allow Plug-ins
Then click
          Manage Website Settings...
and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
Step 4
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination 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 by pressing command-V, then press return.
From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
Step 5
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others—I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
Step 6
Do as in Step 4 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.

Cant open links on my PDF files!

It sucks because I am loosing a lot of time trying to figure this out. I been doing this for the last 3 months. The files I am trying to read are for school and I am losing a lot of good material that I have to self forage through this links. Please help. I dont understand why adobe will do something like this to not be able to open links in the pdf files

They are not in the http://...etc The links are embeded to the words. For example:
Spiral Dynamics is one example amongst several (note the 'see also' section
on this linked page) of a bio-psychological development
All of the links that are in the book I am trying to read are like this. None of them are in the http:// format!
thanks for your reply, I hope we can figure out how to fix this. I am going crazy..

Can't open links in pdf file 9.3.2

I have installed Reader 9.3.2 and all of the sudden I can't open links within a pdf file. I get a block message and it doesn't give me the option to choose Allow. When I go to Edit > Preferences > Trust Manager > Settings everything is grayed out. I had to revert back to 9.3.1 for it to work again. Does anyone know the fix for this. Our 9.3.2 install was streamlined into a 9.3.0 msi package and then installed through a GPO.

same problem here.. but I figured it out.. Believe it or not, if you just wait 5-10min it will come up. I also "End-Task" on some exe that start or had "3D"in the name and after that adobe would come up fast when opening pdf's. Think you need to disable some of the internet related items under preferences.

"Open Link in New Tab" Crashes Safari

Hey gang-
Just upgraded to Leopard 10.5.7 from 10.5.6. The latest version of Safari 3.2.3 is included. I notice that if I right-click any link and choose ""Open Link in New Tab", Safari crashes. Anyone else running into this with the new Safari?
Thanks!
Dave

Ahhh I found the issue. Had to update to the latest PithHelmet. Normally PithHelmet is good about popping up an alert if updates are needed for new versions of Safari, but not this time. Anyhow, installed new version and all is well!
Thanks!
Dave

Put back "Open Link in New Window" first and default, rather than "Open Link in New Tab" in Safari 6.1

I do not like the order of the context menu changes in Safari 6.1. I have become accustomed to using "Open Link In New Window" first in the context list, rather than the new "Open Link In New Tab". I do not wish to use Tabs. How may I remove this?

Well, I solved it just after I posted this. I opened up the Safari Preferences, then went to the TABS section, and set "Open pages in tabs instead of windows: to NEVER", and unchecked "⌘-click opens a link in a new tab". That set it back to open in new windows.
Tabs work if I am making quick tabs to refer to something. Horrible if I want to compare two websites side by side. So, by disabling the auto TAB function, I'm back to the way I prefer my browser to work, rather than the way something thinks I ought to use it.
Don't care about having all my browsers behavior the same. If I wanted that, I would have run those browsers.

How To Automatically Open docx and xlsx files in Safari

I am been doing some searching but don't seem to be able to find an answer to what must be a very simple setting I am missing somewhere.
We have an intranet site with links to a number of docx and xlsx files, I need to tell Safari to automatically open those files rather than simply placing them in the download folder. The only information I could find mentioned creating a file called "com.apple.DownloadAssessment.plist", I found an example of that file that was supposed to do what I am looking for but as far as I can tell the version of Safari I am running (5.1.9) is ignoring this file (placed in my user's preference folder in the Library).
It is frustrating to not be able to figure this out, typically I have no problem finding very basic settings such as these but this has me lost. In Firefox it is trivial and it must be in Safari too. Can anyone help tell me what I need to do so that Safari will automatically open newer MS Office files?
Thanks in advance.

Yes, but there at least you are talking to people who all use the app, while in this forum (which is for hardware and not software in any case, so already off the mark, since the problem has nothing to do with hardware), it is probably a minority.

Links to excel file on safari page suddenly stopped working, but work in firefox. Happened yesterday. Help!

I have a webpage with links mapped from an icon to two excel files. They aren't working. I checked the html. it is identical to two links to .png files and the location is correct, but nothing happens when you click the link. I have reset, emptied cache and thrown out the plists,
The html reads:
<img usemap="#Curio_Map" src="Steps%20in%20Detail(3D691625).png" />
<map name="Curio_Map">
<area href="Assets/7B8E04AB/Strategic%20Planning%20Detail%20Dairy.xlsx" shape="polygon" coords="455,66 844,66 844,296 455,296" >
<area href="Assets/18C769C4/Initial%20questions%20for%20Strategic%20Planning.xls" shape="polygon" coords="14,71 431,71 431,293 14,293" >
</map>
The Assets folder is in the same folder as the index.html page with frames and the page within the frame.
The html for the .png files that do work is:
<img usemap="#Curio_Map" src="Supporting%20Doc(698C969A).png" />
<map name="Curio_Map">
<area href="Assets/9D8D3352/P%20of%20PDSA%20Altresco.pdf" shape="polygon" coords="22,126 102,126 102,192 22,192" >
<area href="Assets/F5E05A53/Access%20Environment%20Altresco.png" shape="polygon" coords="21,45 103,45 103,88 21,88" >
</map>
Look the same to me! Why does one work and the other not, and why did it happen all of a sudden? Any thoughts?
Dan

It sounds like the page has somehow got stuck in the cache of
a server
somewhere. Delete the file from the server, and then call the
page.
Hopefullt you should then get a 404 error. Then FTP the page
back. This
should hopefully clear out the cache.

Cannot open embedded Adobe PDF files in Safari 5.1

I am disgusted to find that Apple has removed Safari's ability to open embedded PDF files in Safari 5.1. This is a huge mistake by Apple, and the only work around from Adobe was to use a different browser.
Get on the ball, Apple!!! Fix your MISTAKES!!!

Ah...this is an Adobe issue, not Apple.

Whenever I attempt to open a PDF file using Adobe Reader in the latest Safari version 7.0.4...
