Chrome and Firefox no longer launch quicktime

Hi,
I tried to watch some trailers at apple.com. The larger ones which are .mov files no longer automatically launch quicktime when I click the link.
I can copy the link, then go to quicktime and say open URL, that works fine, so files and quicktime are OK.
.mov and mp4 are both file types are both set to open with quicktime
This worked a couple of weeks ago, I have not changed anything except for some apple software updates.
Any idea what is happening?
Chrome shows up to date version 13.0.782.220
Firefox 6.0.1
Mac OS X 10.6.8 (10K549)

I'm just glad to know I'm not the only one having this issue lol. I was starting to get really frustrated with this.
I took my Macbook to the Apple Store for another issue and asked the rep about this. He simply implied that it was probably a business decision on Apple's part. He even downloaded Firefox on one of his Macbooks while I was right there with Lion installed, same thing happened, it wouldn't launch Quicktime.

Safari, chrome and firefox cannot verify identity of secure websites after upgrading to 10.7.4, apple engineers have tried multiple things including operating system with no success

safari, chrome and firefox cannot verify identity of secure websites after upgrading to 10.7.4, apple engineers have tried multiple things including operating system with no success

There are several threads about this problem, most notably one called 'Invalid Certificates' is over 4 pages long. Many of us have experienced difficulty connecting to banking and other secure sites. On my Macbook Pro, I cannot get to my banking site with any browser, however I can get there on my iMac using Safari, but get the 'Invalid Certificate' notice with FF and Chrome. The problem started after the installation of 10.7.4. I have sent a message to Apple--they will be dismayed to hear that I cannot complete an order at their online store!

Problems with fluid grid layout live site only showing phone view in Chrome and Firefox Feb 2015

Hi all,
I have done a complex fluid grid layout using DW 2014 CC. The site has now gone live on the web masters server setup.
Up until now the layout of the site has been working fine and responding to screen size.
Early this morning in the USA the site stopped working. The layout for some users, not all, is only showing the phone view, and takes a long time to load.
This is happening in Chrome and Firefox, but IE is displaying the site properly.
So it looks like the CSS media queries are not working on all browsers.
I am using BC for the test site, and one user having this problem can see that version of the site OK.
I noticed that Chrome has done some updates recently Chrome Releases
Has anyone else come across this problem with Chrome and Firefox with their responsive layouts?
Thanks for any help given.

Hi Ben,
Yes, thanks for this link. The Travel Health Website is one of ours, hosted on BC, and no reported problems so far. We also have another large BC website with ga code in it and users are not reporting problems with it. The Headless Way
However the problem website is hosted elsewhere on a different platform to BC. We have been developing it for three months now, and no problems so far until yesterday. The problem of the site taking ages to load, and timing out seems to be happening with about 10% of users in the USA. http://www.harrisonassessments.com/
The web developer found a user in NZ who was experiencing the slow display problem. They looked at the site with Chrome, Firefox and IE. The site would only display on IE. When the developer removed the google analytics code, the site displayed fine on all browsers for the NZ user. We are waiting for users in the USA to wake up and test the site.
So the problem definitely is related to the ga code and the responsive layout that was done by me in DW2014.1 fluid grid layout. So the related problem of DW2014.1 not being able to load htm files with ga code in them looks to be a good clue to what is going on here.
As there was a bug report for DW2014.1 and google analytics code made in the other thread, I would be interested to know if that was ever solved.
It is interesting that you are pushing Bootstrap and Foundation on me. (Big square websites here I come! lol)
I wonder if DW is going to persist with fluid grid layout then? I certainly hope so, as I have spent 12 months blood sweat and tears learning how to do it in DW.

Trying to install latest iTunes 11.1. It fails on both Chrome and Firefox. I need it as ios7 not compatible with IE. . . . Any ideas how to resolve please.

I need to install iTunes 11.1 on laptop so my iPad is recognised when connected to it.
Internet Explorer 8 is no longer an option so I have added both Chrome and Firefox to try to download iTunes. The download is almost complete when I get a message ' the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavoidable'
Can anyone assist using simple layman' slang usage.
Prior to ios7 I had no problems at all.

Cross browser testing : Modifier Keys playback actions not working in chrome and Firefox

Hi,
In my work flow I have to select multiple items in list.So I have recorded 'Ctrl+Click' action to select list items.In Chrome and Firefox it is not selecting multiple Items.
Even Ctrl+A,Ctrl+C,Ctrl+V also not working in chrome and Firefox.Complete modifier keys support is not observed in chrome and Firefox.Let me Know how to automate modifier keys actions in cross browser?
Regards,
Nagasree.

Hi Nagasree,
Welcome to MSDN forums.
First,please make sure the Chrome and Firefox is supported by cross browser testing.
Latest version of Chrome and Firefox supported by cross browser testing are Chrome version 38.0.2125.111 and
Firefox 33.
I doubt whether Chrome and Firefox in cross browser testing don’t support automating modifier keys or there is anything wrong on it if you are using supported browser. Since this issue is related to the Extensions tool
Selenium components for Coded UI Cross Browser Testing, if possible, I suggest you post this
issue here, click “Q AND A”, and then you could post this issue there, you would get dedicated
support there.
Thanks for your understanding.

Mac won't open pages in browsers. Chrome and Firefox won't open any pages - Safari will only open a selected few.

I've had some strange browser issues, with Conduit being added to Chrome (which I've tried to remove via the browser settings). Chrome will open my Gmail account but no ther pages. Firefox won't open anything. Safari opens a few pages (this forum thankfully) but is very selective.
Google is returning results to me via Google.es rather than Google.co.uk
I can use all browsers freely on other devices on home network (although Google.es has popped up on my iPhone now). I've run anti-virus software which hasn't picked up any problems. I've tried uninstalling Chrome and Firefox, but am unable to do so.
Any help or guidance would be really, really appreciated.

Crystal Report 11 PDF report display error in IE9, Chrome and Firefox 4

Hi,
We have developed a Java EE application using Crystal Server 11.0 (Copyright © 2004 Business Objects) to generate PDF reports. All working well for the past few years on IE6 and IE7 under Windows XP Pro until we started to upgrade to Windows 7 and IE9.
When trying to run the reports it will have the error message as follow:
File does not begin with '%PDF-%'.
LocalEWH3zy-d@i4
I also tested on Chrome and Firefox 4 under Windows XP and it got the same error message. It seems like the PDF generated by the aged Crystal Server have some issues with the latest browsers.
Thanks.

Hi Ted, thank you for your response, but the previous post is actually the result of IE6, which is working fine. I confused myself alone the way.
Here is the result of Chrome. It says "Information is needed before this report can be processed". The Content-Type is PDF, but the browser is looking for something before accepting this PDF file. The PDF file itself is not in the response stream.
Thanks.

If the previous Safari suggestion doesn't work try the following:
In Finder, go to Macintosh HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins and move AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin to the Disabled Plug-ins Folder. Restart Safari. If this works you may just want to delete that FUBAR plug-in.
Thanks. This was the solution for me.

How to add a hand tool (grab the page and drag) function on Chrome and firefox pdf viewer?

To clarify, hand tool is a function for user click on the pdf and dragging around , that is used to replace the scroll bar navigating .
The problem is, by default the Chrome and firefox pdf viewer do not have that function and I would like allow the user to drag the page.
A workaround is to use a jquery plugin (grab to pan https://github.com/Rob--W/grab-to-pan.js in my case) with an embed object (pdf viewer). When I maximum the size of the pdf and user drag the embed object.
The problem I have encounter is
1) When using chrome/ firefox, the pdf content do not fit to the page but auto resize by default even I have set the adobe pdf open parameter , using iframe.
2) The jquery seems conflict with the firefox pdf viewer, it works smoothly on Chrome but not firefox.
Here is the source code, you may download the plugin from the link mention above and have a look. Don't forget to put a '1.pdf' along with the source file. Thanks

[E2013] [MailApps] [JS] [Windows]: window.open from a mail app fails in Chrome and Firefox but works in IE

I develop an Office Mail App which is used in Exchange 2013 On-Premises in my test lab. The mail app is hosted on IIS 8 (Windows Server 2012 R2) in the same LAN and ActiveDirectory domain.
Opening popup windows from the mail app does only work in IE, not in Chrome and Firefox.
Here are the details:
The following server and domain names are changed to hide our internal names. I adjusted the error messages accordingly.
Exchange 2013 is available at https://e13.some.dom/owa...
The app content comes from https://server.some.dom/...
Both the app and exchange server have valid SSL certicates.
Both server URLs are listed in the popup exception lists of the browsers I use.
The app generates html with an element which uses onclick to open another item in the same mailbox in a new browser window. Like so:
<a onclick="window.open('https://e13.some.dom/owa/#viewmodel=ReadMessageItem&ItemID=SomeValidID', '_blank', 'width=600,height=400');">click me</a>
Clicking that link in Internet Explorer (11.0.9600.17105; Update Versions: 11.0.7) opens a new browser window and shows the message specified with "SomeValidID". All good.
When I use Chrome (Version 34.0.1847.131 m) the popup browser window opens. I see some progress text "Starting..." and "Almost there..." and then this error:
something went wrong
Sorry, we can't get that information right now. Please try again later. If the problem continues, contact your helpdesk.

In Firefox I see the popOutManager-access with "permission denied", but the popup window itself was already opened.
Seems like the opened popup window tries to open another window?
When I open up a new browser window in Chrome or Firefox manually and paste the URL (https://e13.some.dom/owa/#viewmodel=ReadMessageItem&ItemID=SomeValidID) manually in the address bar the message is shown correctly, so the URL itself does not seem to be
the problem.
Double clicking on messages in Chrome and Firefox opens those messages in new windows as well. So it does not seem to be a general popup problem in Chrome and Firefox as well.
Any ideas how I get the popups from my mail app working in Chrome and Firefox as well?

Printing a PDF file from Chrome and Firefox - Image missing

I created about 20 marketing sheets for work using the same default settings and a template. They contain several inserted images of drawings and floor plans on each sheet (saved individually). When I try to print a couple of different files directly from the Chrome viewer or the Firefox viewer, it removes one of the images I inserted into my pdf. There are about four of 20 sheets that I am having this issue with. It does show when I view it in IE's viewer though and also when I download the file and open from my downloads. For ease of use, I really need to have it show when viewed in Chrome and Firefox. Any ideas?

Make sure you're opening the file using the Adobe plugin, not the built-in
PDF plugins of these browsers:

Why do Yahoo Flash videos not always run correctly in Chrome and Firefox/Windows 8?

I upgraded early last month to Windows 8 Pro.
Running Yahoo! News and other videos (Yahoo! Screen, etc.; virtually all Yahoo branded products) I get a black screen, no error message on Chrome and Firefox. The videos run correctly on Internet Explorer.
I have not found a way to run these videos at all in Firefox or the 64-bit Waterfox.
In Chrome, I can DISABLE the internal Pepper-based Flash player and the videos will run (but nothing ELSE will: no YouTube, etc.)
I can keep a plug-ins page open in Chrome and repeatedly enable and disable the internal Flash player; I can copy and paste the URL for what I'm watching back into IE...or perhaps some kind and knowing person here will have a better idea. For me, I sense a bug somewhere. BTW...this machine dual-boots Win8 and WIn7. The problem does not exist in Win7. Please don't suggest going back to Win7; that's a VERY mature (translate SLOW and quirky; survived repeated change of motherboard and other major components) install that I'm continually weaning myself away from and rarely boot into it anymore (Win8 boots from SSD and is blazingly fast, Win7 not so much).
I have not found any site other than the ENTIRE Yahoo site that has this problem!
Jay from the Bronx

I'm back! Actually, this issue has been happening to me every now & then but I'd just given up on dealing with it. But now I'm motivated again.
I clicked on a video link in Facebook that sent me to NASCAR | Facebook which turns from the https URL to those two words on this site for some odd reason, and it just popped a box telling me saying Flash Player Upgrade Required - Get Flash Player and the video's image never displayed under that and it couldn't be played.
Then once again I went thru all of the steps to insure that both I do actually have Flash Player and that it is Enabled. I do and it is. I also read somewhere to click the gear icon in IE then click Safety > ActiveX Filtering. I do that and I see a checkmark next to ActiveX Filtering. I've tried it both with a checkmark and without one and there's no difference.
I have Windows 8.1 fully updated, IE-11 and Flash Player
I see the swinging tire swing image in #5. Verify if Flash Player is installed at Flash Player Help.

Flash works in Chrome and Firefox, I.E. says I have to install it. ??? I have the lastest version.

I have the latest flash player installed in my windows 7 computer. it works fine in Chrome and Firefox. When I try to use Internet Explorer, any site that calls for Flash, Internet Explorer 9 tells me I have to install Flash Player. I followed directions and made sure Flash is up and running, and settings are correct, but I.E. refuses to recognize that it is installed already. I do not want to uninstall and reinstall it as it works fine with Chrome, which is the one I use the most. The last time I installed it, well, it was a pain in the ***. Worked fine until I got Chrome, then I.E. refused to acknowledge that it is still on the computer. What do I do?

CHROME HAS IT ALREADY INSTALLED IN THEIR PROGRAM AND YOU DON'T NEED TO INSTALL IT SEPARATELY...THAT'S WHY YOU CAN GET IT TO WORK IN FIREFOX ALSO!!
I'm trying to get it to work WITHOUT using CHROME as it makes my computer run like ****!!
To use it on EI you need to unistall CHROME....best thing is to uninstall EVERYTHING and start over...get rid of any left over items in registry also ...completely clean all flash components out and reboot...start over with the most current version of flash from the adobe site. I did this today...works great in EI...I just can't get the damn thing to work in Firefox now!

SSL certificate not valid in Safari, but webservice works with Chrome and Firefox

Access to the loginscreen is public ;-) and should look like this (Screenshot from Firefox)
I've setup a new workstation 3 weeks ago (iMac with OS Lion 10.7.4), and this webservice service works fine till yesterday. Now, Safari is every time we try to reach the service telling us, that this service needs a certificate, we can choose only a default apple certificate
and then, the error is:
This Site needs a valid SSL-Client-Certificate... (Screenshot below)
What's wrong with Safari? With Chrome and Firefox, the webservice works fie without any problems.
