Equivalent to IE9 compatibility mode?
I cannot access the Sage Customer Portal site. I can sign in, but when I move on to the screen where I can choose what support I need, the top fills in, but the rest of the screen remains blank.
I fixed this problem with IE9 by using compatibility mode (makes the browser work on websites designed for older browsers). I much prefer using Firefox and would like to get it to work with the Sage Customer Portal site. Is there any equivalent in Firefox to the IE comptability mode?
Thanks.
Firefox has always been W3C compliant and doesn't have or need a mode to be compatible with older version.
IE is now more W3C compliant and has such a mode to make sites work that were designed with those older IE versions in mind. That means that they have code that only works properly in those older IE versions and not in modern browsers that are W3C compliant. They will have to update their code to support other browsers (including Google Chrome and Opera as well) to keep their site working. You can contact them via mail to ask when they intend to support such other browsers.

I want to be able to switch to FF3.6 mode like in IE9 we can switch to IE8 mode.
Is this possible in FF?Sorry, no it isn't possible. Firefox 4.0 replaced Firefox 3.6 when you installed 4.0, plus Firefox doesn't need a "compatibility mode" like IE has - Firefox has always been more compatible with W3C standards than earlier versions of IE were and doesn't need that "mode" like IE does to display web pages made for older versions of IE without breaking those web pages.

How to set Compatibility Mode for a single site in ie10
This question was originally posted on the Answers forum -
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/ie/forum/ie10-windows_7/how-to-set-compatibility-mode-for-a-single-site-in/187152e3-142a-4d96-8d1b-af82ef571eec
I am having problem with getting ie10 to set ie9 compatibility for a single site (sharepoint.contoso.com).
When I add this website in Compatibility View Settings (Alt > Tools > Compatibility View Settings > 'Add this Website') it adds the domain 'contoso.com' and not the individual website (sharepoint.contoso.com).
This cause other sites (www.contoso.com) to be configured to use compatibility mode. Because this is a separate site (different web server) to the site sharepoint.contoso.com (sharepoint 2010 server) we need different compatibility settings.
Using a different example to explain the issue -
Microsoft has three websites that are different websites created by different developers written in different programming languages and they only work with certain browsers.
microsoft.com (Website1 created by Developer1) - compatible with ie8/ie9/ie10
msdn.microsoft.com (Website2 created by Developer2) - compatible with ie8/ie9
technet.microsoft.com (Website3 website created by Developer3) - compatible only with ie10
The only thing the three website share is the URL contains 'microsoft.com'.
Marking 'msdn.microsoft.com' to run in compatibility mode affects the other 2 websites - mainly technet.microsoft.com which will not work now since it only runs in pure ie10 mode.
Should you be able to add an individual site to the compatibility list instead of all sites that have .microsoft.com in the URL? Am I missing a simple setting in the ie10?
As a workaround I am using the F12 Developer Tools to set the Browser Mode which temporary sets the compatibility mode. However this is not a nice solution to the end users at our organisation.problem is not solved for non corporate environments...
You could start your own thread. Then if you got that answer and it was marked Answered you would have the ability to unmark it. The OP of this one seems satisfied. Also note that this is TechNet. Consumers can get help on Answers
forums.

Oh! I wrote it wrong: I should have said: This is not solved for NON-AD environments. No demands what so ever to use Window 7/8 professional in a small corporation or on a big corporation with Island of smaller departments for example offshore.
The problem is that the thread is not "Answered" by the OP, its is marked answered by a moderator (and same moderator that did the answer) so no way of telling if the OP is satisfied.
But you are right in the fact that I am almost kidnapping the thread. But a complete answer would benefit all in this case I would presume.

How to get compatibility mode or notify ff browser of HTML4
I manage an old but large and constantly changing commercial website. The site was originally done in HTML2 and has long been at HTML4, with no plans yet to move to HTML5, which would break huge amounts of code using <font> tags, etc.
I use <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> at the top of the files, and it works fine with the latest Explorer in compatibility mode, but less well with other browsers, such as FF, where font sizes and colors, etc. are glitching.
Is there a way to force FF into the equivalent of IE's compatibility mode? Or to tell FF in the header to function as an HTML4 browser?What does the validator say about your site's markup and CSS?

You can trigger Quirks Mode rendering by omitting the DOCTYPE.

You really shouldn't have any issues "upgrading" to HTML5 if you don't use antiquated presentation tags like <nowikI><font></nowikI> and <nowikI><center></nowiki>.

click your table and correct any errors that are listed in the Console of the developer tool.... probably you are using attachEvent I/o addEventListener. You should be using addEventListener for IE9 and higher and other web browsers.(it the w3c standard
(recommendation).

Every time I start iTunes I get the message: "iTunes exec has been set to run in compatability mode for an older version of Windows. Turn off compatability mode for iTunes before you open it." How do I turn off the compatability mode? Particularly when I have to do it before I turn on iTunes.
Try the following document, only be sure that none of the boxes in the compatibility mode tab are checked (not just the compatibility mode box itself):

We are planning a upgrade of a SP2010 farm to 2013. There has been a bit of customization so we wish to run the old sites on the new SP2013 platform in SP2010 compatibility mode.
So my question is will Office Web Apps Server 2013 work with the old sites hosted in compatibility mode?
I found a similar query from March 2014 found here
http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/93101/office-web-apps-2010-running-on-sharepoint-2013-for-compatibility-mode-sites/116281#116281
Has there been an update released to resolve this
Cheers DHi ,
According to your description, my understanding is that you need to know whether Office Web Apps 2013 is working with SharePoint 2013 sites which is in SharePoint 2010 compatibility mode.
For my test, Office Web Apps 2013 with SharePoint 2013 sites which is in SharePoint 2010 compatibility mode is working fine.
Thanks,
Eric

Turning off the compatibility mode by deselecting the check box under each thing that it wants did nothing for my access to the itunes store, still a white page with "itunes store" in the middle of it. This is getting rediculous! Someone with computer smarts please help, I am at the end of my rope!
Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 n above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

Purchased a new Ipad for my wife and integrated it with my windows 7 system and Itunes and made it through. Was able to sync and bring pictures, contacts and bookmarks over. Not to say it was easy because I never used any Apple product except my Ipad and Itunes. Really enjoyed using the Ipad and was thinking of getting a new Iphone this week being my contract is up.
Then the trouble began I bought a new windows 8 system after having trouble with my old hard drive. I have finances and Tax programs I use that I thought would be easier to continue using windows rather than trying integrating past years Quicken & Turbo Tax information into a new Apple system.
Well now I'm sorry I bought the new windows 8 system. First all my optical drives disappeared when installing itunes. After spending 1-1/2 on the phone with a service rep and finally was able to see my optical drive I thought everything was OK. Then more trouble. When I open Itunes I receive an error message that says my Itunes no longer recognizes my optical drive try reinstalling. I reinstalled 10 times and tried compatibility mode and the end result is my Itunes no longer could burn Cd's. I had this problem if I'm not mistaken in the past with ME system back many years ago. And did not want to go through this again but here I am disgusted once again.I finally got my nano working (no thanks to Apple, hmpf!) and it's running fine with 1.0.2 now. For those with similiar problems try this:
+For Mac, you need to:+
+1. Downgrade to firmware 1.0.1 by deleting the files iPod_26.1.0.2.ipsw and iPod_26.1.0.2.ipsw.signature (are in the folder iPod software updates somewhere on the harddisk)+
+2. under Settings in iTunes you have to disable automatic download of updates, then restart iTunes.+
+3. Enter Disc Mode by holding menu & select for about ten seconds, then pressing play/pause & select for another ten seconds.+
+4. reconnect your nano to Reset, and when iTunes prompts to update, just don't allow it to look for updates and then reset with fw 1.0.1.+
I'm supriced Apple support didn't tell me about this? This worked great and is a very fast fix. I can't believe Apple got me to reinstall the whole OS, which didn't even solve it btw. USB 1, blah! Yeah right..

This morning, Firefox crashed. After this, when I click the Firefox icon, the hourglass appears and then nothing happens. Firefox does briefly appear in the task manager when I do this.
I tried rebooting. I tried reinstalling multiple times. (Firefox will run when I select "Launch Firefox" from the installer. Then the problem occurs again.) I tried safe mode. I have found that Firefox will work if I select Windows XP compatibility mode from the icon properties menu or if I run the program as an administrator. When I do this, Windows asks me if I want a program to be able to make changes to my computer.
I have noticed that a Windows Error Report is being generated each time Firefox will not open.A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

I was running Firefox fine just yesterday. I screwed up the registry a litle while removing an installed program completely, so I restored the system and everything appeared to work fine. I then decided to play an old video game, Return to Krondor, which was made back in 1998, so I ran the program with no other programs running in compatibility for windows 98. After finishing the game, I closed it and put the computer in hibernation mode. I come back today and firefox will not run at all. It is not running in the background and there are no programs running. There are no services running which could interfere with it. I think somehow Firefox may think I'm in compatibility mode still, but I have no idea.
I'm running windows Vista 32 - bit with an AMD 2.4ghz processor, 4gb ram on an Emachine computer. I have already tried system restore, restart, processes etc. Nothing works. I can still run Internet explorer and all other programs.The person that I was assisting, has Windows 7 which has 64 bit system. Her browser was IE 10.
Was IE11 ever offered (or installed) via Windows Update?
Is her computer currently fully-patched at Windows Update?
Is Adobe Shockwave Player v12.1 (or higher) installed on her computer?
Is Adobe Flash Player v15.0.0.189 (or higher) installed on her computer?

Office 2013 freezing when running in compatibility mode.
When a 1997-2003 doc is opened in Office 2003 it opens in compatibility mode and causes lock ups/delays. This issue is replicated with a network and local copy of the file to negate issues on comms side. No memory/processing spikes, occuring. Uninstalled/deleted
reg keys/reinstalled, issue remains. All updates and up to date drivers installed. Is this a common fault/something you guys have dealt with before?
I have left our client with a workaround in the form of converting the file to the new file format, however, this particular user has vast amounts of 1997-2003 docs so a fix is highly prefereable.you can refer to this, check if works
