I installed Safari 7.1. Now YouTube videos have a bad font for all the interface text that is part of the video embed.

Since installing Safari 7.1, all the text in YouTube videos (title, resolution, etc.) is all little font error boxes and therefore completely unreadable.  Nothing else is having this problem, just the text that is in the embedded videos themselves.
Any suggestions?

What I did (in this order) was, set YouTube to HTML 5, bring Flash up to date, fontrestore, clean font cache with Fusion, reboot.
So far it has now remained fixed for me.  I have Mavericks and it is up to date.
by ‘fontrestore’ I mean
     sudo fontrestore default
in terminal as described on http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/113107/how-to-restore-default-fonts-on- mavericks
fontrestore removed some of my fonts from my System and Library, but I moved them all back in on the theory that I might want to add fonts, but was not looking to remove them.
I don’t know which of these steps solved the problem.  All I know is what I did and what the result was for me.  As always, use ‘sudo’ at your own risk.

    Hi guys..!!
    I would like to know if someone could help on this:
    I just have a HP printer (HP Designjet 100) and for some reason I need to install a file for all the HP printers drivers in total 590MB to be able to use my printer in my mountain lion???
    If normally the size of my files in the for previous software was more or less 5MB why now i need to install 590?
    Some one could help me how to avoid installation of 590MB for my new mountain lion software???
    Thanks

    If you go to http://support.apple.com/downloads and locate the HP Printer Drivers installer, you will find that it is 473.4 MB (for version 2.11). If you install this, it will install the full set of drivers for every model of HP printer that is supported by the drivers distributed through Apple. The disk space occupied once installed will probably be larger than the download, since the downloaded file is compressed.
    On the other hand, if you have an HP printer connected and you use Software Update (or the Update tab in App Store), that should offer you a much smaller set of HP drivers, which are only applicable to your printer (and possibly a few similar ones). These updates are typically only tens of megabytes rather than hundreds of megabytes.
    If Software Update doesn't offer you any HP drivers then it either thinks you have the latest drivers installed already, or the printer model is not supported by the drivers available from Apple.
    This article lists all of the printer models for which Apple distributes the driver:

    I have blocked a sites for view the picture. But I want now to view the picture from this sites. How do I unblock the site again???

    With the site on display, click on the site identity button (for details on what that is see [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Site+Identity+Button]) and then on More Information. This will open up the page info dialog.
    First select the Permissions panel, make sure that "Load Images" is set to allow (selecting Use Default should also work)
    Next select the Media panel, then click on the first item in the list. Use the down arrow key to scroll through the list. If any item has the option "Block images from (domain name)" selected, de-select the option.
    This should hopefully resolve your issue, but also see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Images+or+animations+do+not+show
    Some add-ons can also block images, for example if you have AdBlock Plus installed, make sure that you have not accidentally created a filter to block the images.

  • While working with Google Documents Safari Version 7.1 on OS X 10.9.4 crahses all the time

    While working with Google Documents Safari Version 7.1 on OS X 10.9.4 crahses all the time
    Now I am working with FireFox
    Today I have noticed that FireFox had this Google Talk pop-up
    Maybe this pop-up Google Talk is what is causing Safari 7.1 to crash Attached JING of Google Talk pop-up on FireFox
    So, back to SAFARI 7.1..how to stop this pop-up from crashing Safari 7.1

    You downloaded a beta copy of 7.1 because the current version is 7.0.5. There was a mixup yesterday and 7.1 was accidentally made available for downloading. Do you have a backup you can restore from to get 7.0.5?
    You can also try running the combo update to see if it will restore it.

    I have been trying to install window 7 operating system through booth camp assistant, i will finish all the stages for window to complete installation it will hook. the installation cannot be able to complete and i really install windows on it, please i need an assistance on how to go about it.

    Right now I have 6 different systems installed. Windows XP, 7, and 8 plus Linux Mint, Commodore, and OS X Snow Leopard (for old times sake), all running on Mountain Lion.
    I recommend reading the user manual as it greatly helps getting through the steps, however an intuitive person should pick it up fairly easily.
    Thanks to BobTheFisherman for the link.
    There are other ways to get Windows on a Mac but I'm a big fan of open-source software.
    Give it a try. You might like it or it may not be your cup of tea.

  • I am feeling so ripped off right now. I have wanted a Mac for years and believed the hype about it's stability and I have had more trouble with this Imac 2011 than I have ever had with a pc. It locks up with several software products from APP store.

    I am feeling so ripped off right now. I have wanted a Mac for years and believed the hype about it's stability and I have had more trouble with this Imac 2011 than I have ever had with a pc. It locks up with several software products from APP store. I have already had to have a technician to look at it and really couldn't figure out what the deal was.  I was told that the APP store software should give me no problems but the truth is that it locks up on the software. This machine is only 4 weeks old and I am using 37 g on a 1 T hard drive. There is no reason for it to be locking up. Also, when I try to use the help program, it always tells me that I am not connected to the internet even though I have used both the mail program and the browser with no problem just before that. I successfully used the help program on my pc lots of times. I did not need a $2000. plus machine to just get email. I just wanted to unload on somebody that might understand my pain and after checking out this site...I think there is a few of you out there.

    I was told that the APP store software should give me no problems but the truth is that it locks up on the software.
    The apps downloaded from the Mac App Store are written by third party developers, not Apple. If you have problems  with those apps you need to visit the support area for their websites. Launch the App Store, locate the app name. You should see a support link.

    Go to ~/Library/Preferences. Move the com.apple.helpviewer.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Trash. Restart your Mac, try the Help menu.
    If you need help finding that file, hold down the Finder icon in the Dock then click: New Finder Window. From the menu bar top of your screen click: Go > Go to Folder. Type this in exactly as you see it here:   ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.helpviewer.plist    That will take you right to that file.
    (.plist) files stores information about a particular app or in this case, the Help viewer. Often times deleting the .plist file resolves the issue.
    It's fine to "unload"... we understand that you expect your iMac to be stable but there are times when things go awry. That's why we have these forums so that you can you get help.

  • Hello there, is there any way i can log onto Game Center via just my Username as i have forgotten the other details (I made the account when i was 11 - I'm now 14 and have a bad memory)

    The Question says it all really.
    Is there any way i can log onto Game Center via just my Username as i have forgotten the other details (I made the account when i was 11 - I'm now 14 and have a bad memory)?
    I remember my Username on Gamcenter but due to the recent update of iOS7, it is only letting me Sign in through my APPLE ID - which i have forgotten over time. I wish to recover my account recently because I remember purchasing Gems on the game 'Clash of Clans' and I wish I could restart playing the game.
    Many thanks for taking your time to read and answer this question.

  • Resolve installed Flash player not excuted for all the Vista users on my PC?

    I have a Windows Vista 32-bits system.
    I have created 2 admin and 2 standard users.
    Internet Explorer 9 (IE9) 32 bit is installed but also Chrome and Firfox are used.
    For 1 admin user Flash works fine when accessing a site in IE9 that requires Flash.
    For the other users, including the admin user, IE9 must be run "as adminstrator" by specifically choosing that option.
    If not run "as administrator" IE9 states that Flash needs to be installed. That either leeds to Flash player not being installed (error is that it is already installed) or that after a succesful installation the problem simply occurs again (and again and again ...)
    I want the standard users on the pc to be able to navigate to trusted sites without running IE9 in "as adminstrator" mode.
    What do I need to do?
    Can I set Adobe Flash player to be available for all the users for Vista and IE9?
    Do I need to alter registry settings manually?
    If yes - how and which?
    Thanks in advance.

    Chris,
    Thanks for the reply but unfortunately it does not resolve the problem.
    Other users (including the other system administrator) still need to run IE as administrator.
    When in my sysadmin account the shortcuts for other users to a URL requiring Flash and using IE9 execute fine GRRRRRRR.
    This is very frustrating.
    On my pc Chrome aand Modzilla have no problems.
    The childrens protective software I have however is based on IE.
    Do you have any more suggestions?
    My alternative is to downgrade IE9 to IE8 or 7 but that is also not an easy exercise ...
    Thanks in advance for any input.
