Cycle through Safari windows doesn't work - command+~

I recently got a new Mac Pro with the latest Snow Leopard OS and all updates are current. Tried rebooting, running Disk Utility....my problem:
Command + ~ doesn't cycle through open Safari windows anymore. It gets stuck between two and just bounces back and forth between those when I cycling. It used to work fine, and I hate tabs. The shortcut is too clunky. Command+~ is stuck in my brain, but if I have 5+ separate Safari windows open, like I said, it will start to cycle through, but then it just picks two random ones and doesn't cycle to the rest.
AGH, help?

I don't know if Swiss French keyboards behave the same as Danish, but on Danish keyboard you can cycle through windows by using cmd-< (which is the key left of z).

Do I need to install boot camp on Windows 7 as well as on Lion? I already installed it some years ago on Leopard when installing Windows Vista on my Macbook Pro. But now after installing Windows 7, many things in windows doesn't work (sound etc.)

Do I need to install boot camp on Windows 7 as well as on Lion? I already installed it some years ago on Leopard when installing Windows Vista on my Macbook Pro. But now after installing Windows 7, many things in windows doesn't work (sound etc.). I made a clean installation because I needed to go from 32 bit to 64 bit.
Or should I just update bootcamp in Lion? (cause when I search for "boot camp" in Windows 7 there's no result)

Quicktime for windows doesn't work, wont let me uninstall or update.Help!

Quicktime for windows doesn't work, won't let me uninstall (tells me fatal errro) or update (tells me it encountered an error on installation). Help!I am running Windows XP on an Intel pentium PC. Any ideas? Dvora

When you get this fatal error uninstalling, try a full removal of iTunes and related programs with an installer clean up of any that do not uninstall cleanly:
Here is a method:
Download a fresh copy of iTunes and the stand alone version of Quicktime (the one without iTunes)
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install Microsoft Installer cleanup utility, there are instructions on the page as well as the download. Note that what you download is the installer not the program – you have to run it to install the program.
To run the program – All Programs>>Windows Install Cleanup
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
Now use the following method to remove iTunes and its components:
XP
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
Vista
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
*If you hit a problem with one of the uninstalls don't worry*, carry on with the deleting of files and folders as directed in the method.
When you get to deleting Quicktime files in the system32 folder as advised in the method, you can delete any file or folder with Quicktime in the name.
Restart your PC.
Run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility. (Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up)
Remove any references you find to the programs you removed - strictly speaking you only need to worry about those programs where the uninstall failed.
If you don’t see an entry for one of the programs that did not uninstall, look out for blank entries or numeric entries that look like version numbers e.g. 7.x for Quicktime or 1.x for Bonjour.
restart your PC
Install the stand alone Quicktime and check that it works.
If it does, install iTunes.

Cycle through open windows in Safari, Finder, etc etc.

I have a macbook pro running Leopard since it came out. I can't complain, everything works fine and one of the things I use the most is the Command+< combination to cycle between windows inside a program. I use it mainly on Safari, Photoshop and Pages.
Recently, while resizing some partitions very irresponsibly, an error erased my entire internal HDD. Long story short: I got everything back with third party software, recovered into a new drive, and after installing Leopard again on my macbook pro, I got my files back from the external drive and my OS is running as it was the first time. I could even recover my keychain!
Somethings, small things, have changed since that reinstall, and I can't solve them.
I can't cycle through windows the the Command-< combination anymore.
I've read all posts on this forum that deal with this issues and I've checked and rechecked that list of OS commands, where in fact there is one that says "cycle between open windows etc". It does not work. Not the Command-~, not the command-`, nothing. The later is even listed in my keyboard and mouse preferences (accessible through system preferences) and still I can't get it to actually DO what it describes.
I really want it back the way it was.
Since none of the other posters with this problem posted feedback as to finding a solution, I bring this problem back in hopes it gets more attention this time.
Thank you!

Strangely, one of the things I had already tried so many times, worked.
Changing the shortcut for "Move to next window in active application" under the tab Keyboard Shortcuts in the panel Keyboard and Mouse in System Preferences.

Username and password for Windows doesn't work for Safari

I just installed Safari 3.0.3 for windows under WindowsXP on local machine. But I have problem access local IIS.
Here is what I did:
1. type http://localhost in Safari
2. I get a pop up login window says "To view this page, you need to log in to area localhost on localhost:80",
3. I entered my username and password to Windows, then "Enter"
4. The pop up window comes back, it says "the name and password entered for are localhost on localhost:80 is incorrect."
I don't see this problem in IE or Firefox on the same machine. In Firefox, it pops a similar window ask for username and password, I entered the same username and password to Windows, it works. But in Safari, it doesn't.
I am wondering if anyone knows how to solve this problem. thanks.

Hi,
i've couple of ideas that might help...
1:
just wandering are either of you guys accessing the internet via a proxy server? if so i suspect that Safari is not by bypassing local addresses and hitting the proxy server first.
if this is the case, Safari should respect the same settings that IE does, so try setting IE and/or FF to bypass the proxy for local address/servers - and see if Safari now works...
2:
also, the text box that ask's you for your password, does it say on it somewhere, something like, "password will be sent clear" or "password will be sent encrypted"
i seem to get a similar problem, but with accessing our work ISA server, my localhost is fine btw. Anyway it might be the case the safari is trying to send a clear text password to an encrpyted password request or vica-verca (sp?) - soooo try setting your IIS to accept clear/basic authentation as well at NT Auth/Encrypted
ok, hope that helps, and make sense

Burned in Nero Express through Windows, doesn't work on Mac

So I just burned a Data DVD (files like music and mac applications) on Windows, using Nero Express, but then I mount it on my Powermac G5 PPC and it doesn't work, my mac doesn't recognize it, what's the problem ?
Thanks.

Did you close the disc, or leave it open for further burning sessions?

Dragging Safari bookmarks to open Finder windows doesn't work.

When you drag a URL from the top of a Safari window to a window in the Finder, a bookmark ("web internet location") file is supposed to be created. Since I upgraded to Yosemite, this has worked only sporadically. Now the URL just flies right back to its origin at the top of the Safari window. (Dragging a URL to an icon of a folder works fine, however.)

But when I eject the CD, then mount it again, Finder gives me a mess of one-on-top-of-the-other icons all over again
Of course it will.
The CD is read-only - it can't be written to. Since the window position, view settings, layout, etc. are stored in the directory, there's no way for the Finder to write the changed settings back to the disk before you eject it.
The issue occurs because what you're seeing is how the window was laid out when the disk was burned in the first place.
Your solution is to re-burn the disk, positioning the icons where you want them before starting the burn.

NT service start of weblogic doesn't work (command line start works)...

Hi,
We have WL 6 running on NT 4, and the server installed as a NT service.
We have some servlets sitting in the DefaultWebApp directory, but when we
start the WebLogic NT service we get an ERROR 400:
From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1:
10.4.5 400 Bad Request
The request could not be understood by the server due to malformed syntax.
The client SHOULD NOT repeat the request without modifications.
The log states that the default context did not load properly. Maybe about
10% of the time, everything works fine
and we can access our servlets. When the error happens, we can't even
access the console, it still gives the same error 400. Interestingly, when
I start weblogic through DOS, it works 100% of the time with no error 400!
I installed SP1 and I still get the same behavior. I tried resetting the
config.xml....but sometimes I get the reverse behavior..where the service
works all the time and the DOS method doesn't work. Could there be
something with the servlets (they're pretty straight)? Some other parameter
or setting that I'm missing? Or is this just a bug?
Thanks for any help,
Ven

This is a known bug in the Windows native convenience programs.
If you start the server with the startWebLogic.cmd script or
from your own Java command line you'll get farther.
WebLogic Server 5.1.0 isn't certified yet on the 1.3 JDK because
1.3 had not been released in production form at the time of
the WebLogic Server 5.1.0 release. Our experience is that it
works well enough to do development work. Certification (and
support for deployment) is targeted for an upcoming service pack.

Applet registered through object tag doesn't work

Hi..
If i register an applet through <OBJECT> tag, the applet doesn't appear, but if registering through <applet> tag, it works.
what happens?
is there anybody can tell me why?

The html <object> codes used are below.
<OBJECT
classid = "clsid:CAFEEFAC-0014-0002-0004-ABCDEFFEDCBA"
codebase = "http://java.sun.com/update/1.4.2/jinstall-1_4_2_04-windows-i586.cab#Version=1,4,2,40"
WIDTH = 100 HEIGHT = 100 >
<PARAM NAME = CODE VALUE = "MyApplet.class" >
<PARAM NAME = "type" VALUE = "application/x-java-applet;jpi-version=1.4.2_04">
<PARAM NAME = "scriptable" VALUE = "false">
<PARAM NAME = MAYSCRIPT VALUE = true >
</OBJECT>
and the parent html file that contain "<iframe> tag" portion is written as below
<iframe src=iframe_testApplet.htm name=AppletLoader frameborder="no" height=150 width=150 scrolling="no"></iframe>
and all the parent html file and the iframed-file and the class file is in the same directory. so i didn't specify the "codebase" attribute above. and moreover, when i put a code that specifies the codebase though, it doesn't still work.
the code specifying codebase is like this.
<PARAM NAME = CODEBASE VALUE=".">
I just want to let know that actually I solved above problem just before with some minor change. but I still want to know why it works at this time because there is not so much difference between before and after.
the change I did is
1. I rewrite all html code into jsp code
2. in the jsp code, I specify the codebase with "<%= request.getContextPath()%>/aPath"
But as you can see, the code base is the directory that contains all the files, parent html file, iframed file and a classFile, although I changed some minor codes, that cannot make it work if it doesn't work without the minor code-change because eventually it has same context from code viewpoints.
As of now, I just take it as just a JRE bug. Can anyone let me know why it happens?

Safari download doesn't work

Previously I was using Safari 6.1 on my MBP (OS X 10.7.5) and all was good until I had a window telling me that my current version of Safari was no longer supported by youtube.
I downloaded Safari 7.x and now it will not open. The new Safari icon in the Applications folder has a white circle with diagonal slash (like the NO or Do Not Enter signs) and when it is Clicked there is a window saying "You can't use this version of Safari with this version OS. You have 10.7.5 and it requires 10.9."
I tried downloading Safari 6.1 and it said the download was successful. But the newer Safari icon (described above) remains in the Applications folder. Even tried downloading Safari 6.1 to another location (User's directory) but it won't open there and that doesn't work either.
How do I get Safari back?
And I'm assuming I've probably lost all my bookmarks and history too!
Help, please.

Thanks dominic23… I do have my data backed up . Just that Safari doesn't work now.
And thanks QuickTimeKirk for your suggestions.
You mean the ONLY way I can get Safari back is to restore the Operating System?
When trying to install a version of anything that is not compatible with the OS you normally get a window saying such. And the OS doesn't allow the installation. In this case the OS allowed the installation thereby killing the working version and leaving an incompatible version. So I'm out a working version of Safari unless I restore the entire OS?
Surely there's another way. Thanks again!!

When I move a harddrive with Bootcamp from my mac pro to my macbook, windows doesn't work

I have a 13" Intel Core 2 Duo MacBook and the topcase-keyboard doesn't work and so for some reason, it makes it impossible for me to install windows on the bootcamp partition. While the windows installer is running, it doesn't recognize usb keyboards. So I decided to install windows 7 professional on that same drive using my Mac Pro. The installation worked perfectly.
Then I take that harddrive and I move it back to my MacBook and windows won't start up correctly, stating that something has changed (of course!...duh).
Can anyone help me with a workaround for this?
Has anyone had similar problems moving a windows partition in bootcamp from one mac to another?
How can I install windows on a MacBook without a working topcase?
I've posted this question to the Snow Leopard community because that's the OS I'm using.

With the Lion it is essentially unnecessary to resort to external driver disks. What's more, most of those disks are incompatible with the OS and should not be used. The system already carries a wide variety of printer description files (aka PPDs, which is what modern printing systems use as "drivers") for a lot of brands. And there was an HP printer update just two days ago.
Just checked in mine and did indeed find that the HP OfficeJet 6200 Series, with or without Fax, is covered with the latest update.
So just go thru the motions of creating a proper printer instance:
Make sure the Mac "sees" the printer on the network.
System Preferences / Print & Scan
Click on the + button on the left column
Select the appropriate type of printer, will use IP for the rest of this
Select HP Jetdirect - Socket, default for HP network printers
Type the IP address or look it up
Name the printer for easy identification on the print dialog
Let the Mac identify the printer model or manually choose the driver
Click Add.
Once the instance pops up in the list, can click on Options & Supplies for further config.

After upgrading to Mountain Lion, Windows doesn't work

Hello,
I've just upgraded my computer to Mountain Lion (from Leopard) and Microsoft windows 'the Power PC applications are no longer supported'. I've tried to download different version of Microsoft windows - still doesn't work. Help!?
I'm aware that this question may have been posted but somehow can't access the main community room.
Thanks
Odyle

You can't run Windows on a Mac unless you use BootCamp or a third-party utility such as Parallels Desktop.
Perhaps you mean Microsoft Word (which is part of the MSOffice suite).
Only MSOffice 2008 and later will run in Mountain Lion.
However there are very good free alternatives, such as LibreOffice.

Locate file window doesn't work

Ok, this problem occures only on our Z800 workstations.
Everything works as expected on my laptop.
When I try to relink a media file, the relink media window opens, and then I click the Locate button.
The new window ALWAYS opens in the top most level (basically My Computer in windows) and not in the last used directory.
I think it has something to do with the second problem - the path text box doesn't work. Whatever I enter there and click Return - nothing happens. It doesn't navigate to the folder specified in the path field. The only way to navigate is to go throught the folder tree on the left.
For every file I have to do it always from the top most level - that is a lot of clicking.
Also if I uncheck Use Media Browser to locate files, the default windows dialog properly navigates to the last known location of the file.
I know it's an error - since on my laptop everything works fine. The window opens in the last know location of the media file and I can easily navigate using the path field.
Any suggestions what could be the reason for this?

Jim Simon wrote:
I'm not sure if this is a bug. The Locate File dialog seems to be opening where it thinks the file might be, rather than where it was. For example, I renamed the 0000.mts file for a particular project, and when I opened Premiere Pro, Locate File went to the 0000.mts file from another project/folder, thinking that might be it.
So...if you have no other files that might be the missing file, the dialog starts at the top.
Jim,
I understand what you are saying in regard to where it thinks it might be. However if I manually type a path where a file I want to link to rathter then clicking 20 times in the folder tree, it throws a "File not accessible" error. Yet if I use the folder tree to navigate to the same file it sees it and links to it fine.
It just seems that whenever I try to manually type a path in the path address field is when the error occurs.
Are you able to manually type in a path > hit enter/return and have it link to the file?

New to Safari - GMail doesn't work?

I have always used Firefox on my Mac, but I decided to try Safari a little. I use Gmail religiously, but I noticed it only displays the "basic HTML" view in Safari. When I try to enable the "standard" view mode, it doesn't work.
I have tried searching the forums but haven't found any conclusive answers. Should I just stick with Firefox or Camino instead?

Is it possible that you have JavaScript turned off in Safari? That would do it, since Standard view for Gmail requires JavaScript.
If it's on, have you tried at different times of the day, since it could be an intermittent issue? Do youu get any error messages, or messages of any kind when it won't load Standard view? Post again with more details.

Keyboarding password CDE window doesn't work

I don't manage to enter the password in the password window of CDE.
The password I type is the good one, it seems to be a keyboard issue, it is locked.
Is it possible to kill this CDE console and start it again.
To be more specific, this CDE is launched on the system console.
Thanks for your help

By default the router will use admin for either the password only or for both username and password. If it doesn't work you might have changed this before when you ran the setup cd the first time. Is the cisco connect software installed in the computer? You can check thru cisco connect what the router password is. Just go to "router settings" then check what the router password is. With cisco connect, your network password (wireless security key) is the same as the router password. Otherwise you'll have to reset the router for 10 seconds and it will goback to the default "admin" password or you may run the setup cd again.
