I'm having trouble opening pages through javascript.

Whenever I try to open a website that requires javascript, a warning message pops up: "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (javascript) isn't associated with any program."
However, when I went to options to see if javascript was enabled, it was checked.

I open Word documents on my Mac using Pages and textedit without any problems.
I also have a copy of OpenOffice and it can also open Word documents without any problems.
Could you please provide more details on exactly what you mean when you say you having troubles opening Word documents? What kind of troubles?

  • Hello guys. I'm having trouble opening Instagram pages with Safari.

    Hello guys. I'm having trouble opening Instagram pages with Safari. I try to open them and it seems to be loading for one second, but then it's all blank, there's nothing on the screen. Funny thing is, when I try to open an Instagram page that doesn't exist, it opens the Instagram NOT FOUND page. I don't know what's going on. I've tried everything, from software updates to restarting my Mac etc. Please help.

    Is this the site you are referring to >   http://instagram.com
    Because that site refers you to apps for smartphone devices. Not for your Mac.
    Regardless of the Instagram website, v10.5.4 is an outdated version of Safari. You need to update your system software.
    Click your Apple menu  top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click Software Update.
    Restart your Mac after the updates are installed, then try Instagram on Safari.

  • Just got my MacBook Pro....having trouble opening up certain web pages...just keeps scrolling and scrolling, my 7 year old desk top that is on the same wireless network for internet opened up the same web page right away, so I think the Internet is OK

    just got my MacBook Pro and I'm having trouble opening up certain websites, it just keeps scrolling and scrolling and never opens up the page....this is not the case with all websites, however my 7 year old desk top - which is connected to the same wireless Internet connection opened up the same page right away, so I don't think it's the Internet, any suggestions?

    Use Software Update to update your os and anything else that needs to be updated.   Repair permissions and restart your computer when done.
    Not sure if your new Mac came with 10.7.2 pre-installed as you make no mention of your os system.

  • Why am I having trouble opening my gmail account on safari? It's driving me crazy! =(

    Hello! =)
    Can anyone help me? I have been having trouble opening my gmail account with Safari this week. I had to download firefox in order to check my email. It's terrible!
    Thank you,
    V

    I have multiple gmail accounts that are linked through gmail.
    Only some open in Safari.  I also had to use Firefox to access these accounts. 
    Today, in Safari,  I secondary clicked in the address bar while the page was stuck loading.  I found an option "Open URL" which I clicked on,  and the account page opened quickly.
    I tried this several times and so far this has always worked.
    To be sure that you are clicking in the address bar, the address should be highlighted.
    I know that this is several months since your post, and I do not know if you have found a solution, but I thought I would share this work around. And I hope this helps.
    MacBook Pro, Mid 2010, OS X 10.8.2, Safari 6.0.1.

  • Having Trouble Opening TIFF Files

    I'm having trouble opening TIFF files into Camera Raw. I have checked all my settings in Adobe Bridge and everything seems to be saying that TIFF files should open in Camera Raw when I click on then int and then into photoshop when finished editing in camera raw.
    I'm trying to open 32 bit HDR images saved as a TIFF file into Camera Raw, and there seems to be nothing I can do to get them there. I have tried everything I can think of. When I right click on it (cmd click I'm on a mac) the option to open in camera Raw isn't there. I have tried clicking and dragging the image into Photoshop to try and force it maybe to open into Camera Raw, and I have opened photoshop and tried opeing it up from mini Bridge. In mini bridge I have the option to open the image into Camera Raw when I click this nothing happens.
    I'm not sure what else to try I'm on CS6 and Camera Raw 7.0 .

    Alright I'll try that thanks!

    It might be that you need to update camera raw to version 8.3 by going to Help>Updates from within photoshop or bridge.
    (i don't remember exactly in which version of acr that was added, but probably after version 7.0)

    I am having trouble running videos through Safari but not Google Chrome.  All I get is a black screen.  I have the latest adobe flash update and have enabled plug ins.  any suggestions?

    Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Advanced tab.
    Click Delete All under Browsing Data and Settings
    Not empty the Safari cache.
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
    Select:  Show Develop menu in menu bar
    Now click Develop from the menu bar. From the drop down menu click Empty Caches.
    Now try a video.

  • Having trouble opening a pdf with Adobe...keep seeing an error sign "acroExch"  does anyone have a way to fix this?

    Having trouble opening a pdf with Adobe...keep seeing an error sign "acroExch"  does anyone have a way to fix this?

    Hmm, "Use Adobe Reader" should launch the PDF outside of Firefox in the stand-alone Adobe Reader application, so seeing it in a tab is something of a puzzle.
    Could you check your version of Adobe Reader? For Windows 7, you normally would have the Reader XI series (Reader 11), which has had several updates. From inside Adobe Reader, you can use Help > Check for Updates to make sure it's current.
    In Firefox, could you check your Adobe Acrobat plugin version or possibly versions? You can view that on the Add-ons page. Either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Plugins. If you find multiple versions, this can cause problems and may need to be cleaned up manually (post back on that for suggestions).
    Sometimes, the settings file which stores those download handler preferences becomes corrupted and there's not much else to do than to rename or remove that file and let Firefox rebuild it.
    To do that, open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using either
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
    * (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
    * type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
    In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button. This will launch a new window (Windows Explorer window) listing various settings files.
    Leaving that window open, switch back to Firefox and Exit, either:
    * "3-bar" menu button > "power" button
    * (menu bar) File > Exit
    Pause while Firefox finishes its cleanup, then rename '''mimeTypes.rdf''' to something like mimeTypes.old
    Start Firefox back up again and "PDF Files" should be back to their default setting of "Preview in Firefox". Try changing that to "Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox)" and test to see whether there's any improvement.

  • My Mac is having trouble opening Webpages

    My Mac is having trouble opening webpages all of a sudden it will take over 5mins to do. I checked my router with my laptop and it is working fine. It opens the apple page fast. Does any one have any suggestions.

    If you are using Safari ...
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
    If that didn''t help, back to the menu bar click Safari > Reset Safari
    If that didn't help, might be corrupted Safari preferences (.plist)
    Quit Safari.
    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar top of your screen click Go > Go to Folder
    Type this exactly as you see it here:
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
    Click Go
    Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop.
    Relaunch Safari. If that helped, move the .plist file to the Trash. If not, move it back to the Preferences folder.
    And try troubleshooting Safari unsupported plugins.  From the menu bar click Safari > Preferences > Security
    Deselect: Enable plug-ins. Quit then relaunch Safari. If that made a difference, follow the instructions here > Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues

  • I am having problems opening pages in safari. the rotating wheel at the right end of the address window doesn't stop even after the page has filled up. then if i try to open other pages it gets stuck and won't open them.

    I started having problems opening pages today. When first open a page it seems to download the page OK, but the rotating wheel on the right-hand end of the address field keeps rotating after the page is completely filled up. Then if I try to open other pages it becomes slower and eventually stops filling-in the pages, while the rotating wheel keeps rotating.
    I wonder whether junk is being downloaded into my mac, or what is going on. Help will be geatly appreciated.

    When was the last time you emptied the Safari cache?
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
    If that didn't make a difference, go back to the menu bar click Safari > Reset Safari. Select the top 5 boxes then click Reset.
    And how much free space on the startup disk?
    Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure you always have a minimum of 15% free disk space. Freeing Up Hard Disk Space - Mac Guides
    If emptying cache or resetting didn't help and there's enough free space on the startup disk, login to another user account, launch Safari. Same problems there indicates a system wide problem. Log back into your admin account so you can check the startup disk.
    Launch Disk Utility. /Applications/Utilities
    Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left then select the First Aid tab.
    Click: Verify Disk (not Verify Disk Permissions)
    If the startup disk needs repairing, follow the instructions for Using Disk Utility to verify or repair disks
    I wonder whether junk is being downloaded into my mac
    Nothing should "download" to your Mac unless you initiate the download yourself. You can check the Downloads folder from the Safari > Window menu or your Downloads folder in the Finder.

  • Having trouble opening camera raw files. Already downloaded Camera Raw Update for Photoshop CS5. I have a pc.

    Please Help? Having trouble opening camera raw files. Already downloaded Camera Raw update. I have a pc.

    If the camera is fairly new then the version of ACR you have with CS5 won't be able to read those file. You'll need to upgrade to a newer version of Photoshop or use Lightroom 5.
    Once a new version of Photoshop comes out Adobe does not support updating ACR from the older version of PS.
