Help please - Internet pages are loading but missing links + funny display

Hello, I've recently borrowed this computer - it hasn't been used for a few years. I've managed to connect it to the internet but certain sites are not loading properly - the display is all messed up and the links are missing - nothing happens when i try to click on things e.g. i can log in to my hotmail but not open any messages.
I've tried downloading the latest version of safari but it won't open, i guess because this operating system (OS X v10.2.8) can't handle it? So I tried downloading the version 1.0 again, the one it is using, to see if that would fix it - it says installation has been successful but nothing has changed..
Please help...
Thank you

There may be an older version of Firefox (mozilla) that may work under Jaguar 10.2.8; or see if
the Camino (mozilla) browser download page shows an older supported version for pre-10.3.9.
http://caminobrowser.org - see older version link for Jaguar 10.2.x
And there may also be an issue in viewing some web pages since the technologies for doing so
have changed; newer browsers run a later Flash and Shockwave Player plugin(s) so those are
newer than most anything in your Jaguar system.
There may need to be other things done with that computer to be able to use it. Could be it is
too old to warrant the upgrades in RAM and hard disk drive capacity, and a later OS X version.
You can see general specifications about most things Mac including models and supported OSs
from this downloadable database, it runs offline in the computer: http://mactracker.ca
For a cost efficient way to consider another more capable Mac, you could check with resellers
who also repair computers for a living; they often offer a fair limited duration guarantee and a
few may even come with an operating system. Getting the bootable Installer discs and correct
applications to run on a system may involve more footwork. Places such as wegenermedia.com
have a few good items and knowhow, too. Ones with a good reputation are worth discussion.
Good luck & happy computing!

Safari 4.0.3 running OSX 10.6.1 - Pages are loading but NOT thumbnails?

Just upgraded to OSX 10.6.1 running Safari 4.0.3 last week - everything was working BEFORE the upgrade - but now for some reason I have an issue where pages ARE loading including larger banners, text flash animations etc, but if the site contains small thumbnails they are not loading.
The icon in the web bar spins and spins for ages and then suddenly where the thumbnails should be I get the blue question make as if the links are broken - which there not as this is happening to well know sites such as youtube gettyimages and ebay and its just to the thumbnails?????
Take ebay for example, the homepage page loads in fine, and if I search for a product - the page with the listing all loads but not the thumbnail images, yet if I click a listing the full page loads without a problem?
Any advice, I have cleared the cookies and javascript database all to no avail?

When I start mozilla or open any link in a new window I get the desired page to load but an additional new tab page opens up along with it, fix?

When I start mozilla or open any link in a new window I get the desired page to load but an additional new tab page opens up along with it. I've tried switching my homepage to different things (new tab, firefox home, show blank page) but I always get an additional new tab to open. How do I get only a single page to open?

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. <br>
'''Note''': ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.''
*Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.
To Reset Firefox do the following:
'''For Firefox versions previous to 29.0:'''
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox"[[Image:Button reset]] button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
'''For Firefox 29.0 and above:'''
#Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Troubleshooting Information''.
Now, a new tab containing your troubleshooting information should open.
#At the top right corner of the page, you should see a button that says "Reset Firefox"[[Image:Button reset]]. Click on it.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

If other Internet applications such as Mail and iTunes also don't work, run the Network Diagnostics assistant. How far do you get?

Help, please! Any advice on how I link my new iMac and my new itunes software with existing external harddrive containing my entire itunes library?

Hello!
It should be a matter of
Quiting iTunes first if it's running
Connecting your external harddrive to your Mac, use the Finder to browse to it
Find your iTunes folder on the ext HDD and double-click on iTunes Library.itl
If you have any trouble with this, please let us know.

When I update to the latest version I cannot access the add-ons page or request help because neither page will load. My Weather channel add-on was NOT piced up when updating to the latest version. Why problems with improved latest version?

I have twice downloaded the latest version in the last month. Each time I encountered the same problems. the Weather Channel add-on I have did NOT appear in the latest version. When I tried to access the Add-Ons page under the Tools header it would not load. When I tried to contact Mozilla from the Help header it would not load
When I open a web page from Bookmarks it is painfully slow to load.
This is NOT an improved version. I have been using Firefox for years without problems; I prefer it to Internet Explorer. However the latest 'improved' version may change my mind.

The problem is that the Add-ons Manager tab when opened the first time, is on "Get Add-ons" section and that must be downloaded from the Add-ons server which might be overburdened.
* If you need to look for new Add-ons, go directly to the Add-ons site -> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/
Perform the suggestions mentioned in the following articles:
* [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Template:clearCookiesCache/ Clear Cookies & Cache]
* [[Add-ons are disabled after updating Firefox#w_check-for-new-versions-of-your-add-ons|Check for New versions of your Add-ons]]
Check and tell if its working.
Not related to your problem but some of your Plugins are out-dated
* Update All your Firefox Plugins -> [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/]
* '''When Downloading Plugins Update setup files, Remove Checkmark from Downloading other Optional Softwares with your Plugins (e.g. Toolbars, McAfee, Google Chrome, etc.)'''

Ever since I upgraded to firefox 3.6.15 the pages are loading extremely slowly, why?

I use a MacBook pro - about a year old and I have OS 10.6.6 installed. Ever since you pushed firefox 3.6.15 to me the pages are very slow in loading. Is it a cache problem? A second visit to the same page loads faster. sometimes it is slower than others and I don't know why. I have done a speed check on uploads and downloads and all seems to be fine.

I can get the photos to display in 3 columns if I do this:
orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Content
In the Fonts & Colors section, click the Advanced... button.
Change '''Minimum Font Size''' to '''None''' and OK out of Options.
But most people are not going to do that. I prefer a minimum font size of at least 10.
So... how to fix it. The way the thumbnails are sized is that they are 10em with a base font size of 5px. If the minimum size is set to 10px, the pictures double in height and width.
It would make more sense if the base font size in your stylesheet was larger. Can you edit it? If so, try doubling the font size and halving the relative image size:
In http://languagesofourancestors.spruz.com/dhtml/corestyle/xstyle.css
<br>/*All Cards Small*/
.SUI-UserPic.small, .SUI-ImageCard.small, .SUI-VideoCard.small { font-size: '''10px''';}
<br>/* User Pics */
(4 lines down)
.SUI-UserPic .SUI-CardImage { display: block; width: '''5em'''; height: '''5em'''; overflow: hidden; border: 1px solid #aaa; border-radius: 2px; -moz-border-radius: 2px; -webkit-border-radius: 2px;}
.SUI-UserPic .SUI-CardImage img { width: '''5em'''; min-height: '''5em'''; border: 0 none;}
.SUI-UserPic .PopInfo {line-height: normal; display: none; width: 140px; position: absolute; z-index: 2; top: '''4em'''; left: 0; margin: 0 auto;}
I think that will be more broadly compatible. There may well be some details I've missed, but hopefully this helps.
I don't know why the minimum font size wasn't applied this way in Firefox 3.6, but I suspect this is the new normal.
