Drop down menus no longer work on many sites after upgrade to ios 5.

On my iPad and iPhone I'm having trouble on a number of sites with drop down menus. When you click on the menu, it immediately selects the default option instead of allowing the menu to drop and then select one. Any way to fix this?
Thanks,
Bill

Obviously you are referring to web sites using Safari???? If it happens on both devices - iPad and iPhone - that seems rather odd to me.
Try all of the basics .... Resetting the iPad may be your first best bet ....
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 - let go of the buttons.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

My Drop Down Menus Do Not Work Properly in IE

Hey. I'm really stuck and have been for over a week. Let me preface this by telling you I didn't build our website and have little knowledge of spry and spry assets. I can't the get the gentleman that built our site to help and I'm desperate!
The site - www.ncsoccer.org , has drop down menus. They work fine in Chrome, FF and Live Preview (DW CS4). But in IE8, they do not.
I had to revise the drop downs (changing names and removing some drop downs - I've done this with no problem before). When I uploaded the index page and the template pages, the error started.
In addition, the people in my office that use Contribute to update their sections, cannot access anything but our index page and I don't know what (if anything) I've done wrong, as everything worked fine before the menu revision.
I'm including the 'sprymenubarhorizontal.css" code below. Maybe you can see something that isn't right.
Thanks for any insight or suggestions. Remember, asking me to create to create sprys or widgets or something like that may be over my head! Try to dumb it down for me!
Thanks.

A;though the CSS is very well documented, there are those that ignore those signs. Look at the following
/* Menu item containers, position children relative to this container and are a fixed width */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal li
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    list-style-type: none;
    font-size: 100%;
    position: relative;
    text-align: left;
    cursor: pointer;
    width: auto;
    float: left;
The rest have been given a width of 15em, so this value may be a good start.
DESIGN INFORMATION: describes color scheme, borders, fonts
/* Submenu containers have borders on all sides */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul
    border: 1px solid #CCC;
   width: auto;
    background-attachment: fixed;
Just keep the border property and remove the other two.

Why has Siri stopped working on iPhone 4 after upgrading to IOS 5?

Why has Siri stopped working on iPhone 4 after upgrading to IOS 5? I've tried the disable and reboot but continue to get the network error.

Apple has not been forthcoming on the explanation. My Siri worked on my iphone4 (not 4s) immediately after upgrading to IOS5, but I take it they have redirected the servers that used to support Siri to only work with Iphone4s.
It is one thing for apple to only bundle the improved Siri with IPhone 4S, or for them to remove Siri from the Ap store.
But it is another thing all together for apple to purchase a company, and then cease the service that many of us paid for.
Attempts to contact apple at apple store and via email have been unhelpful.

DW-MX-04 Drop-down menus won't work.

I'm using Dreamweaver MX 2004 (have been for several years, so I know my way around it). I want to create drop-down or fly-outs menu's to consolidate page links into categores in order to reduce the number of link tabs I have on each page. I've been able to create the menu's I needed (using: Tag Chooser\ Behaviors\ Show Pop-U Menu), but when I preview the pages in IE, the text only shows on the mouseover text (not on top) despite having the text color set as black in the Menu window. But it gets worse. When I uploaded the page to try it, the drop down menus don't show up at all when I hover over the main buttons and I get javascript errors.
Can anyone give me so assistance on how to resolve this?
I've checked the text color issue using the code view editing pane, and it matches the way I have it setup in the Pop-Up Menu. But that's the least of my worries if I can't get them to work at all when the pages are live.
Thanks...JEB

MX2004 software is also somewhat antiquated and no longer supported by Adobe. So it shouldn't surprise you that the tools from nearly a decade ago are obsolete today. The web itself has changed significantly since 2004!
Web standards have moved from HTML3 to HTML5. Layouts have departed from old school nested tables to more efficient CSS. Unlike a decade ago, today's web devices include everything from hand held smartphones & tablets to laptops, desktops and TV displays. So it's not possible to stand still and keep pace with the evolving web. If you're not moving forward, you're falling behind.
CSS is not an extension. HTML = content. CSS = Cascading Style Sheets. CSS is used to style your content. With CSS you can make an ordinary list look like a very cool menu with buttons, borders, shadows, drop-down and rollover effects. If you master CSS, you can do some very creative things with it. However, coding skills are essential.
Below is an example of an unordered list styled with CSS to make a nice horizontal drop-menu.
http://alt-web.com/DEMOS/CSS-Multi-colored-drop-menu.shtml
To further illustrate the efficiency and power of CSS, look at CSS Zen Garden.
http://www.csszengarden.com/
Every page on the right panel contains exactly the same HTML code as the first. The only difference is the CSS code.
The shift to CSS is intended to help web designers keep styles separate from content. Learning to work with CSS will make a you better web designer and save countless hours of tedious re-coding when you decide to change the look of your site. It's much easier to edit one file instead of many.
Below are some links to help you learn more about how to work with CSS.

Multiple drop down menus won't work

Hi guys,
Mac newbie here: I decided to give them a shot after a lifetime of PC use due to a friend's recommendations.
I'm trying to apply for jobs, and every single site that has two drop down menus, with one dependent on the other, won't work in Safari. (if I go try it out on a PC with IE, it works without any problems). For example, a menu that reads "country" and the next one reads "state". It will let me choose the country, but then the "state" one won't work at all, with the only option being "choose one".
As these are required fields to send the application along, I'm having to borrow someone else's computer every time I apply for a job, and that's getting old fast. Any ideas on how to get Safari to quit hanging up on the dropdowns?
I have no idea if this matters or not, but I bought my Mac when I lived in Japan. I'm still running the English version of the OS, though.
Thanks for any help you can give me!

I use www.alldatapro.com for auto repair information. It a members only site so it might be a bad example. The problem im having is, i cant select the first option in any dropdown menu. The badpart about that is some of the menus only have one option. In such a case, i have to log in on regular computer, put the info in, then reload the website on the ipad so i can use the "previous vehicles" option. I have a jailbroken ipad running 4.3.1. The dropdown mnus worked perfect until i upraded to 4.2 and i still havent found the source.

Does your Wifi drop when your iPad mini went into sleep mode after upgrading to iOS 7?

Dear iPad mini users, to those who have upgraded to iOS 7 like I did, do you experienced WiFi drop when your iPad is in sleeping mode? I noticed this problem only few days after upgrading my iOS. Initially I don't think there is such issue. After your iPad mini recover fom sleep mode, then it will automatically connect to WiFi again. My point is it no longer connected to WiFi in sleeping mode and so could not keep me up-to-date with my mail if I am on WiFi.
Do share your view and if there is a solution, do share with me please. I have tried almost all solutions available online but no no avail. At the moment, I am activating my 3G network so that when mail came in, my iPad will notify me even during its sleeping mode but this is getting expensive considering I am using the 3G 24 hours every day now.

I found an solution. Go to Settings/Mail, Contact, Calendar/Fetch new data and than enable Push and choose to fetch hourly or every 30 minutes. In this case your iPad will stay connected to wifi even when smart cover is closed. If you select Manualy than wifi connection will be terminated when in sleep mode.

The "Clear Search History" feature in the upper right drop-down menu no longer works in Firefox 4.

The "Clear Search History" feature in the upper right drop-down menu that shows search terms no longer seems to work in Firefox 4.

It is possible that there is a problem with the file that stores the "Saved Form" data.<br />
Rename or delete formhistory.sqlite (plus formhistory.sqlite-journal and formhistory.sqlite.corrupt and formhistory.dat, if they exist) in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] in case there is a problem with the file that stores the "Saved Form" data.<br />
This will remove all saved form data, so you may want to rename formhistory.sqlite to formhistory.sqlite.sav or move the file to another folder in case you need to recover some saved data.
You may also need to delete search.sqlite and search.json in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder]

Drop down function no longer works in firefox 19

Firefox 19 installed. have uninstalled and reinstalled twice, have followed the trouble shooting suggestions and have had my IT department try and resolve this issue without success.
If I type in an area that normally auto populates, with for example, my email address. The address flickers whilst I type in the area however I am unable to click or arrow down to grab the data.
When I go onto websites, I am no longer able to click onto a drop down menu, now I have to scroll through.
Very frustrating. Any idea how this can be fixed?

*Disable the Hardware accelerator
*if your using themes , make use default theme
*Try in safemode
Could you try disabling graphics hardware acceleration? Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
=============================================================
[[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
[[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!'''Try the Firefox Safe Mode''' to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.''
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Don't select anything right now, just use "'Start in Safe Mode"''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shift key) to open it again.''
'''''If it is good in the Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.
Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.

Java has been updated as well as firefox but java refuses to run - drop down menus won't work (ebay) and pogo game windows won't load.....HELP

Ever since I updated firefox to 3.5.16 java ahs stopped working. Drop down menu's in ebay don't, windows from links (such as tracking in ebay) don't work, pogo game windows won't load or will load the widow frame but not the game itself. I work online and run and online business and this wastes a lot of my time. Idon't want to use IE but might have to - I have looked in the forums and online and can't find a solution.

Drop Down Menus Too Long - bottom part is hidden

When I click on a drop down menu like to file or save, the menu is too long and I can't see what's at the bottom. These are instructions like Save, Accept, Cancel etc. It wasn't always like this, but it has been for a few months now. I don't see any adjustments to make. It is this way in Safari, Mail, and all other applications.
Can you help?

A right click should keep them open until you mouse click again. There is no time limit.
Go to /Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systemuiserver.plist and delete that file then log out and back in or restart. Your menu bar should return to default.
Let us know.

IPhoto no longer works with Nikon 5100 after upgrade to 10.8

IPhoto with newly installed Mountain Lion no longer recognizes a connection to my Nikon 5100. The USB cable is good, as it works with my other Macs -- OSX versions 10.6.8 and 10.7.4, just as it did with my Imac before I upgraded to 10.8. My Preferences are set to recognize any camera. I even upgraded to IPhoto 11 v9.3.2, but no help. Any ideas?

Hi, I have the same problem with my Nikon Coolpix 5000: camera is not recognized at all by Mountain Lion after upgrading: worked just fine with Lion.
Problem: I connect the camera, Mac (MacBook Pro Late 2011) freezes for a while (!!!) then external disk icon does not appear.
Console registers messages like the following:
20/08/12 19:34:24,000 kernel[0]: USBF: 363761.547 AppleUSBEHCI[0xffffff801fcbf000]::Found a transaction which hasn't moved in 5 seconds on bus 0xfa, timing out! (Addr: 0, EP: 0)
Strange thing is, my Coolpix 5000 is a very old camera with only USB 1 support: this problem occurs to me with every USB 1 device connected on Mountain Lion!
Hope they'll fix the problem or just find some workaround...
