Google books not displaying

I can access Google Books on my PC, but on my iPhone in both Safari and Chrome I simply get gray pages even when I page forward or backward. Is it something in my settings?

Hi:
Google maps work just fine here (USA). I did read another post that a UK user was having Google map problems (I am assuming from your post that you are in the UK).

Google fonts not displaying correctly since updating to Firefox 31.0

Since updating to Firefox 31.0, the vast majority of Google / web fonts are not displaying correctly, including icons that are being replaced with random characters. When I view the Google web fonts page, only a few display correctly, the rest just default to a sans-serif font.
- I've tried running in safe mode with no add-ons enabled.
- I've tried disabling all add-ons then re-enabling one by one.
- I've checked the tickbox in the font settings for 'Allow pages to use their own fonts' is ticked
Any help appreciated, it's got quite frustrating now.
Thanks, Greg

You can do a font test to see if you can identify corrupted font(s).
*http://browserspy.dk/fonts-flash.php?detail=1
You can try different default fonts and temporarily disable website fonts to test the selected default font.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced
*[ ] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
You can check for problems with preferences.
You can check the gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled pref on the about:config page and make sure that it is set to true (if necessary double-click the line to toggle its value).
Delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Resetting_preferences
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.
See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox
Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

Google Books not working with latest 15 update?

I'm unable to view pages on Google books, unless I use the plain text. The toolbar for the book viewing also is not appearing, although everything around it does. It is working fine with Google Chrome BTW.

We've seen problems reported on other Google pages related to SPDY, so you can try to disable SPDY to see if that helps.
You can check the network.http.* prefs on the about:config page and reset all bold user set network.http prefs to the default value via the right-click context menu -> Reset.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
Try to set the Boolean pref network.http.spdy.enabled to false on the about:config page.

Books in google books not in the cloud

I have downloaded books into Google Books on my IPAD. Can I get them into the cloud so they are also on my computer?

Both the Yahoo! Toolbar extension and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause an issue like that. Disable or uninstall those add-ons.

Google images not displaying properly

I have recently downloaded some add-ons, for the first time, and since then google image searches on display about eight images.
Deleting the add-ons, except for Flagfox, has not helped.

If images are missing then check that you do not block images from some domains.
Check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
Check "Tools > Page Info > Media" for blocked images
*Select the first image link and use the cursor Down key to scroll through the list.
*If an image in the list is grayed and "Block Images from..." has a checkmark then remove this checkmark to unblock images from this domain.
Make sure that you do not block (third-party) images, the permissions.default.image pref on the about:config page should be 1.
There are extensions like Adblock Plus (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images and other content.

Gmail / Google Apps not displaying images

Hi,
Just getting used to my iPhone - absolutely love it but I've one major issue and I know I'm not alone.
When I use the Gmail interface through Safari I can't view any images in any emails. Even if I go to the desktop site and set it to always display images from a given sender, still nothing.
It works fine in the native Mail app but I want to hang on to my conversations.
Any ideas??
Robert

Ok, after a long research I know why this is not working: Mobile devices use ActiveSync for synchronization while computers (Mac / Outlook) use a different more complete Exchange communication protocol. You cannot connect a mac and make it work using ActiveSync. It will not work. If you want to connect your mac computer using the "Exchange" option then you have to use a real Exchange server. Microsoft offers the service for 4 dollars a month / per user.
Google and other companies have developed code that emulates the ActiveSync behavior. They have not worked on the other protocol because there are easier ways to do an Outlook sync by using regular Windows programming than having to reverse engineering a communications protocol.

PDF of iPhoto book not displaying text under photos

Just created a wedding book in iPhoto 11 but when I saved it as pdf to proof it, text under photos was not there. I could see the top of some letters at bottom of photos. However, on my slide show and in reviewing the book in iPhoto, text is there. So, if I upload the wedding book to Apple (or whoever they contract with), will the text appear in the published book?

First there are no psychics here who can see the future - if you preview according to the Apple specs then the delivered product is guaranteed to match the resulting PDF
Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.

Font Preview in Font Book not Displaying Correctly

I just got my new mac and I noticed that font book previews appear strange for some of my fonts. Here's a picture demonstrating what I mean.
I've already made an attempt to clear font caches, deleting the fontbook pl file, validating fonts (nothing wrong so far), and while it seems to have fixed the preview display of a large majority of my fonts, I've yet to resolve this matter completely. Please help. Thanks.

Calendars/books not displaying in iPhoto projects

I have created calendars and books in iPhoto (latest version on latest mac software) that are still showing in my list, but they can no longer be viewed since updating. Can anyone help with this?

First make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
Click to view full size
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
If that doesn't help try the fix below:
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.

Address Book Not Displaying Data

Hi,
This morning I ran 10.4.8 and security updates on my MBP. Now when I open Address Book, I can see all my contacts listed, but not any of the data when I click on a name or search for one.
I have deleted prefs and tried reverting to AddressBook.data.previous in my user Library. I have also replaced my Address Book from my .Mac acct.
It's not that I have no contacts, but that I can't view them. Double clicking does nothing and editing simply depresses the Edit button, but I still see nothing.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Another relatively straightforward thing that I’m realizing now you appear to not have tried yet (it could be a font issue, but I’m not sure) would be reinstalling the Combo Update for the type of computer and the version of Mac OS X you’re using, unless this is the version of Mac OS X that came with your computer:
About the Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update
Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update for PPC
Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update for Intel
Take a look at the following articles for guidelines on how to properly install system updates:
Troubleshooting installation and software updates
Installing software updates
Basically, you should verify/repair the startup disk before installing the update (which you’ve said you’ve already done), no applications should be running while installing it, and you may experience unexpected results if you have third-party system software modifications (not normal applications) installed.

Google Map not display in remote pc

Hello All,
I'm using APEX3 and successfully intergrated it with Google Map. The map was showed perfectly in server. But when I try to show this map using the remote PC (remote PC connect to via LAN to Server), it required me to register new map API key. The message popup from IE and show like this;
++The Google Maps API key used on this web site was registered for a different web site. You can generate a new key for this web site at http://code.google.com/apis/maps/.+++
What should i do? Do i need to register new key?
Need expert opinion.

No idea about Google maps and the API keys but Google gave this link for given error.

Flash movie not displayed correctly in IE 8 on some Windows OS

Has anyone seen this problem?
I'm using CS4 to export a basic flash movie with embed tags pre scripted...
And the issue is that on some OS systems using Vista or Windows 7 and IE 8 as a primary browser, it appears that IE 8 is not displaying the flash banner completely.... its CROPPING it off... This is very strange because the banner works fine in FireFox, IE7,Opera,Chrome but not I.E.8 on some OS systems...
If you google "Flash not displaying correctly in IE 8" you'll get alot of people with the same issues but no real definate fix...
Are there any suggestions as to what i could try?
Do i need different flash embed tags? Or is this a user issue?
Please Advise as soon as possible...
Thanks

I'm sorry, i forgot to explain that I didn't upload the flash published html because it did and produced the exact same results.
The flash published still got cropped off on 1 vista os(I.E 8) running from a laptop and 1 windows 7(I.E. 8) latop os...
Its good to hear that you're able to see it clearly... however in my QA efforts, i've been asked to fix the issue or drop the flash banner all together.
I've tried every which way, i've even converted the embed tags (not uploaded by the way) to a js script and it STILL gets cropped of on 2 ie8 run OS systems...
And now i'm not sure what else to try on my end.
I'm currious if because this is an XML driven flash banner, this may be an issue? But it still doesn't explain why some people can see this in IE 8 as you can and others get a cropped banner like in my screen shot sample.
Again i invite everyone in the forum to take a look at the sample links, as i'd be curious to see who else is seeing this.
By the way "kglad" Thank you so much... please keep the suggestions coming... but everything you've suggested, i've tried.
This is very perplexing. Is this a setting issue? or is there some setting on the user side i'm not aware of? Either way, as usual... the flash developer is blamed so i must find a solution.

Phonebook not displaying names in groups.

Hi
I just got a new macbook pro and when I connected my iphone to it, it erased all my contacts. So I manually put them in but now instead of displaying them by letter, eg-A-NAMES,B-NAMES,C-NAME,D-NAMES. It just shows one single list of people.
Does anybody know what I can do to fix it.
Thanks
Aditya

It depends on if your iphone is not displaying your contacts alphabetically or is address book not displaying names alphabetically.
If it is the iphone, go to home screen > settings > phone and check the contacts section to see how the names are supposed to be sorted and displayed.
If you have the settings correct, try power-cycling or resetting the iphone.
Both shut the power down so you can turn back on. This link will help.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305740
If the reset does not resolve the issue, you might think about restoring the iphone. This link will help.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305744
If it is the address book that is having the issue, check the address book preferences to see how the names are supposed to be sorted and displayed.
If these are set correctly, you can rename your address book preference file.
To rename the file:
Make sure you quit out of address book.
Open finder and drag the following file to the desktop.
~\library\preferences\apple.com.AddressBook.plist
This will reset any preferences you have set in address book.
Hope this helps out.

I am unable to print articles from magazines from Google Books - the background prints, but not the article

When I try to print from "File", then "Print" only the background "stuff" prints, not the article I am trying to print from Popular Mechanics in Google books. Sometime in the past I had a program (I think it was Mozilla Firefox) which allowed me to take a "screen shot" of the entire screen, edit out the unwanted graphics, zoom in or out and then print only the edited version on a full page format. I've changed computers, and am still setting the new one up to my preferences. Can you help me print articles from Popular Mechanics on Google books?

See this: 
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Problems_printing_web_pages
Chances are you have one of two problems; either a non-standard "Media Type" is selected or your page margins are messed up. If the Media Type is correct, try doing the '''reset''' mentioned on that support page.

Google search box in Safari not displaying matches

Hello,
I just did the latest Software Update on both my MacBook Pro and iMac (the update was a new iTunes--version 10.3). I'm not sure why this is happening, but when I use the Google search box (located in the upper-right corner of the Safari window), I no longer see a list of possible matches to what I'm typing. Both of my computers now do not display them, yet it has always done this in the past.
Does anyone have a solution to this, or do you know what happened?
Thank you very much.

My guess is Google did something wrong, figured it out and fixed it. The suggestions feature went away in Safari for Google, but not for bing, and continued to work in Firefox. It is all fixed this morning. I happened to be using Google when it stopped functioning, it had nothing to do with updates to the Mac, since as it went south I restarted in an earlier Snow Leopard version and discovered it was not working there either. So it was a Google action that caused the mishap, nothing that Apple did. Anyway, all's well now.
Francine
