I use Safari, sometimes, I have to use Internet Explorer & it does not work

It seems like ever since I've had my I-MAC (almost 3 years), I've never been able to use Interent Explorer. It boots up, usually, but at some point during my use, either right away or a few minutes in, I get the color "please wait" wheel and it never stops. I have to re-boot and start over. Safari works fine. Sometimes though, I simply need to use Explorer because certain content doesn't come up probably in Safari.
What can I do to make Internet Explorer work smoothly!
Help!!!!

Booty:
Try this:
Go to Home > Library > Preferences > com.microsoft.explorer.plist
Drag to desktop and restart. A new .plist should be created.
Let me know if it works.
Microsoft IE is no longer supported by Microsoft for Mac OS X. A better choice would be Camino or Firefox. Camino looks a lot like Safari and is quite powerful. Firefox is one of the most powerful browsers for the Mac, and offers great security options.
Please post back with further questions or comments.
Good luck.

    Normally, you just connect the monitor to the MacBook using a VGA adaptor that you can buy from an Apple Store.  Now try System Preferences > Displays > Detect Displays.  You should now be able to select a display mode for the monitor.  If it still doesn't work, then I'd check that everything is properly connected.  I've had problems with colours disappearing due to a faulty connection in the VGA adaptor.

  • The log in button to the Edmonton Public Library is on the top right corner of their web page. But I can not activate it. If I use Internet Explore I do not have this problem.

    If I try to log in to the following site http://www.epl.ca/ it appears that the cursor is not working on the top of the screen. If I use Internet Explore I do not have this problem.

    "'''''it appears that the cursor is not working on the top of the screen"'''''
    Recently, the Yahoo Toolbar and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause that problem. They seem to overlap invisibly over the top of the web page display. If you have either or both, uninstall or disable them/it, or see if an update is available that solves the problem.

  • Im tryting to install new itunes but says windows installer, you are tring to use is a network resource that is unavailable. find folder itunes.msi  i dont have a folder like that and anything i use that is related does not work. help me?

    "you are tring to use is a network resource that is unavailable. find folder itunes.msi" i dont have a folder like that and anything i use that is related does not work. ive tryed to uninstall but still does the same thing when.

    Should the advice above not fix things for you...
    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • I have no sound for games in my iPad. I have tried the reset but it does not work. The speakers work as I have sound for music and videos.

    I have no sound for games in my iPad. I have tried the reset but it does not work. The speakers work as I have sound for music and videos.

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430 It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
    If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.
    iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5180
    iPhone: Can’t hear through the receiver or speakers
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1630
    http://www.atreks.com/app-no-sound-on-ipad-4-%E2%80%93-what-to-do/
    To solve some sound problems, just follow these simple steps
    1. Go to Settings
    2. Tap on General
    3. Tap on Reset
    4. Tap on Reset All Settings
    What this effectively does is to reset some of your Settings to factory default. It’s not a complete removal of settings. It removes all of your preferences for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Do No Disturb, Notifications, General, Sounds, Brightness & Wallpaper and Privacy. It doesn’t affect your data. All of your email accounts will remain intact, as well as any SMS text or iMessages.
     Cheers, Tom

  • I have aperture 3.4.4, which does not work with Yosemite. Is there a way to upgrade my Aperture version, or do I have to buy Aperture again?

    I have aperture 3.4.4, which does not work with Yosemite. Is there a way to upgrade my Aperture version, or do I have to buy Aperture again?

    If you own any version of Aperture 3, you are entitled to a free update. Only it can be tricky, if your version is not associated with your AppleID, because you bought it with a serial number.
    Have you checked, if you can see an update at the App Store Updates page? Or an "Accept" button on the Purchases tab of the app Store?
    Contact the AppStore Support and request a redeem code, to be able to buy the update for free. You will need to provide a proof op purchase of Aperture.
    Use this link: http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact/
    Apple sent redeem codes for Aperture 3.6 to several users who had bought the version on disks, if they could provide a serial number.  See for example this discussion: (The post marked as the solution)
    Re: Aperture update not possible after update to Yosemite
    It is really unfortunate you missed the window of opportunity with Mavericks MacOS X 10.9.5, when the update was easy.
