Favicon on MobileMe web site won't display with Safari - OK with Firefox

I have a web site published to MobileME using iWeb - I have added a favicon and updated HTML accordingly. Now after trying every combination of code and searching the Safari, iWeb and MobileMe forums I cannot figure out why my favicon will not display using Safari but will with just about every other browser (Firefox, IE, Netscape are the ones I've tried on a Windows PC - also won't dispaly using Safari for Windows). Any ideas???
I've put the favicon file in the web.me.com/pat.schafer/web/sites folder as well as the web.me.com/pat.schafer/web/sites/sitename folder and added the HTML ref code to every html file - I'm going crazy.

Hi Certified - tried your tips to no avail. I'm beginning to think it's some interaction (bug??) when using a site published to MobileMe (and iWeb?) and Safari. Note I also tried using Windows Safari on a PC which had never viewed the site and it still showed the Apple favico but as previously stated Firefox, and IE on this PC did show my favicon. (I have not tried to load Firefox on my iMac but may try this as well.) I'd try the Apple Support Center but I don't hold up much hope of their being able to assist - I was at the Genius Bar yesterday in the Sydney shop on another matter (broken mouse) and asked about this favicon issue and was told it was beyond the scope of what they can assist with.
Hello Old Toad - thanks anyway for the tip on the OVI slideshow - also thanks to your earlier tips on using OVI I did know about the trick of using a transparent shape but had got around to doing this - I'm still in the early stages of learning using iWeb ... the site in question is just a bit of a "sandbox". In fact I'm pretty much on my way to a bookshop to get a book an HTML and other web design technologies - clearly one must really understand the underlying technology to make these things work.

I was using Internet Explorer but now have disabled it in preference to Firefox. But my Press Reader program by Newspaper Direct will not access the internet and display the paper. Their web site says it works with Firefox

Under connection options in Press Reader I have three options. Use IE proxy settings; don't use proxy; Use custom proxy settings. I have tried all three and still cannot get a direct internet connection with Press Reader. The Press Reader site says it works with Firefox 2 and above. I am using Firefox 5.0. I can still go to my newspaper site and read the paper but I just can do it via Press Reader and therefore I can not download it for later reading.

I notice that the home page redirects to a secure (HTTPS) address. I wonder whether there is a setting blocking this? What if you go directly to a secure page -- will it load?

Gasbuddy web site not working properly with firefox, but working fine with explorer

I've noticed when I load the web site gasbuddy.com, it is not working properly. It does load, just not performing like it should. When I try using gasbuddy.com on explorer 9, it works fine. I've already tried working in safe mode and that didn't solve the problem with gasbudy.com. Any suggestions as to how to fix the problem? I did do some prior investigating, and I'm very cautious about removing my cookies. It seems when I do that procedure, I lose too much info on certain web sites----weather.com, weatherunderground, etc. Just not sure how to remove cookies to solve a problem with out causing other problems? Thank you.

I'm glad we were able to figure it out. Many sites are designed with stretchy columns that work with either full zoom or text-only zoom, but definitely not all of them.

Certain web sites won't load on any browser on Macbook Pro

Starting yesterday certain web sites won't load on any browser (Safari or Chrome). These include sites like the New England Journal of Medicine, Washington Post, and English Bulldog News. I get an error message in Safari that the server took too long to respond and in Chrome I get a connection timeout error message. I updated Adobe Flash with a clean install as I was unable to update using the standard method due to connection timeout. That restored my access to YouTube video but today it takes ~2 minutes to load a YT video. Web sites are loading fine on my phone and household PCs.
Not sure if it is notable that my internet loading capacity has been very slow for some time. I worked with the internet company to increase the network speed but my computer has not seen benefit. No problems on the PCs in our house but my Macbook very frequently gets partially "kicked-off" the network as indicated by yellow lights seen next to the "internet" and "server" items in my Network Diagnostics utility.
I looked at old threads and ran EtreCheck (see results copied below) as was recommended to another user several months ago, but would appreciate any thoughts about where to go from here. Could it be malware? Or just a classic case of operator error? Here are the EtreCheck "red" items extracted from the full report below:

Forms 9i Runtime causes "Web site cannot be displayed" message

I'm running Forms Developer 9iDS on Windows NT and IE ver 5.5. Whenever I try running a form from builder IE returns the message "Web site cannot be displayed". Is there any problem with settings/installation?

Hi,
This error message sounds like a Browser message from IE. This means that the URL called does not exist or cannot be served due to a server unavailability. Did yu start teh OC4J instance? Go to the Windows start bar, the iDS folder, Forms and the click on "start OC4J inszance".

I am having major problems with Firefox. About 3 weeks ago I started experiencing the display only when on Firefox for all web site, that the display would be shifted right about half a screen. It only happens on Firefox and happens for all web sites.

I am having major problems with Firefox. About 3 weeks ago I started experiencing the display only when on Firefox for all web site, that the display would be shifted right about half a screen. It only happens on Firefox and happens for all web sites.

This issue can be caused by the Babylon Toolbar 1.1.8 extension
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

A direct link to the site in question helps. Posting your code here isn't much help since the .swf file is stored on your server and can't be tested by the helpers here

Hi Ginette,
The site that you are referring to does not appear to be a template that you can get your hands on, however, I will suggest that you contact the owner via their contact us page and see what can be done.

Personal Web Sharing Won't display my Site

i noticed that i seem to be able to load the site properly from my DynDns account, however when i load it locally at http://127.0.0.1 it still does not open the site index. i have only tried via my own browser on the same machine hosting the site.

Some web-sites won't let me in, or send me in loops.

I hope this is the correct place to post this question. I have developed a problem with some web-sites that won't let me in. They used to, and I don't really know when the problems started, and it is only some sites. Most are well-behaved, and the same comments apply whether I am using Safari 3 or 4 or Firefox, so it doesn't really seem like a browser problem tome... more a system/set-up problem.
I am currently running OSX 10.5.6 with all the most current updates applied. My machine is a 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo iMac, with 4GB SDRAM, linked to the web via a Dynamode router, using a wired Ethernet connection. My wife is running a slightly earlier Intel iMac through the same router... I mention this point as the problems I am asking about do not occur with her machine).
The problem is this, and occurs whether I am using Safari 3 or 4 (my 'preferred' browser), or Firefox. Certain web sites let me in so far, and then either throw me around in loops, or just refuse to take any input on certain pages. Particular ones are
www.emusic.com I choose 'Login' on the 'Start Page', which takes me to the 'Enter Login Details' page. I enter my login details and click 'Submit' and am then thrown back to the 'Start Page'.... which then produces and endless loop...
www.which-local.co.uk I enter my login details on the 'Start Page', click "Login" and am thrown back to the 'Start Page' to enter my login details again... this is again an endless loop...
www.royalmail.com I work through the sequence 'Personal Customers'/Sending mail overseas/Airmail/Buy online now/Overseas and weight/Country(Oman)/Airmail Small Packets - Buy and Print/ Enter login details and Login - Print your postage/Complete the address - Continue... and I'm back to the 'Buy Online Now' page.(Although this latter one is a longer sequence, it is very similar to the other two... there are others... one lets me get to a certain page, then will not accept any text entry on the page.)
www.apple.com I log-in with my Apple ID, and get sent to the Set Up Your Account page (which contains a blue link that would let me cancel my account. I quit there, and go back to the log-in page... just can't get in... unless I do what I havedone to enable me to write this query... that is, to restart under Safe Boot... which is a lot of fuss to get into the forums.
With all these sites, if I do a Restart and a Safe Boot (Shift Key) then the problems all disappear. And as I said earlier, the problems do not occur when I use my wife's machine. This implies to me that there is something in my set-up that is causing the problems, and which is disabled in Safe Boot.
Under OS 9 I would then have gone to the control panels and done a binary search with restarts until I had isolated the process that was causing the problem.
I have deleted Intego Firewall, and Intego Virus Barrier. They are the only major items that seem possible culprits, and which have never been installed on my wife's machine (which runs only under the built-in OSX Firewall that is configured exactly as mine is, allowing access for specific services and applications... among them Safari and Firefox), which seems to have no problems. This doesn't seem to have helped - (though they have been involved in other problems in the past, which have then been resolved). I can think of no way that I can identify what is interfering with both browsers in this way. I have both browsers configured to accept cookies, and not to block pop-ups, as each of these has caused problems with other sites in the past!!.
So where do I go from here!!?

It still sounds like there is a problem with cookies being set. Since you were previously running a virus scanner, did it do something with the cookie databases, such as change their permissions? Don't bother with repairing permissions from Disk Utility, it does nothing inside a user account - for that, you would need to use the Reset Password utility from the OS installation disk.

Web page won't display

when i try to connect my laptop running on vista to the home hub 4 wirelessly it says that it is connected but it won't display any web pages saying there is a problem with the router or modem but my other laptop running on windows 7 has no problems please can anybody help??

As Keith has suggested, check that the drivers for the wireless card are up to date via the card manufacturers website, obviously you will need to do this on your other laptop and if need be download them then transfer to the Vista laptop. Also go into the hub management page and change the security from WPA and WPA2 to WPA only and see how you get on.
See link how to change hub security.
