ICloud Browser Support?

I am rather disappointed with Apple regarding browser use of iCloud on a PC.
The current System requirements for iCloud (https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT204230), lists these requirements for PC:
Microsoft Windows 7 or later
iCloud for Windows 4.0.2
iTunes 12 or late
Internet Explorer 10 or later, Firefox 22 or later, or Google Chrome 28 or later (desktop mode only)
Looking at the browser listing in particular (note I am running Windows 7 Home Premium on this machine right now):
Internet Explorer 10 or later - I have IE Version 11.0.9699.17728 installed, but hate using IE for anything.
Firefox 22 or later - I do have Firefox Version 36.0.4 installed, but actually use Waterfox Version 36.0.4 (this is the 64-bit version using the same Mozilla base as Firefox, so the two update together. Yes iCloud does work in Waterfox, even though it is not listed as supported.
Google Chrome 28 or later - I have Version 42.0.2311.90 m installed and it works with iCloud.
Note: I used to also have Safari (Version 5.x whatever) installed, but Apple discontinued support and updates for it (which was a shame) so I de-installed it.
My question to the community is regarding Waterfox. Is anyone else using it with iCloud and are they experiencing any compatibility issues with it?
For information, I have just updated my iPad to IOS 6.3, turned on "Use iCloud" under the Control Panel, Numbers setting and tested editing one of my spreadsheets on both my iPad and under iCloud Numbers beta running under Waterfox, which (so far) all seems to work fine. I used to get a dialog box saying that it was not fully compatible in my browser, but do not appear to get that now (and anyway, there was no information on what might not work correctly).
I also have the iCloud for Windows 4.0.2 installed, with "Use bookmarks with: Firefox" selected (which actually syncs with Waterfox as well as Firefox and appears to still be working, although I need to double check that again.
It would be nice if Apple could test and (if successful) officially list Waterfox as a supported browser for use with iCloud.

Well I spoke a little too soon, as on reopening my Waterfox browser and going back into iCloud, Numbers beta I received this popup:
but in spite of that, Numbers does appear to edit correctly (so far) and the changes are synced to my iPad.

No Optimized web browser support on basic phones after 8/30/13?

Over the weekend I received a very disturbing message on my web browser. of my Samsung Gusto 2. It said that there would be no Optimized web browser support on basic phones after 8/30/13 and that if I wanted a good web browsing experience that I would have to upgrade to a smartphone. I am on the $50 unilmited talk,text,and web prepay plan but don'\t want to get stuck paying for a web browser I can't use after that date.A smartphone monthly plan would cost $10-20 more monthly,in addition to spending considerably more to buy a smartphone. I already have a tablet and was told a smartphone was unnecessary. Anybody else get this message?One person in customer service said that it was propaganda and not to believe it. Another person that I called later found the memo but had no further information on it at this time. Aparently Verizon likes to keep their customer service associates in the dark until last minute.No idea if they will alter their price plans in light of this development. I currently have AT&T U-Verse and will move my number to them and switch providers if forced to.They are willing to offer the same plan I currently have with Verizon but will have to buy a new AT&T GoPhone. Have had pretty good customer service with them up to now,but they are not open 24/7 for wireless customer service. Any comments?

Hi Melissa
Right now I am switching back and forth between the Samsung Gusto 2 and the original Gusto. The reason I am doing this is because the Gusto ,even though it is an older phone, is in much better condition than the newer Gusto2. I want to use the beat-up Gusto2 for work, and switch to the other phone when I need a more presentable phone.Also have a Verizon Wireless CDM 7076(somewhere).
Don't know why I am being forced to replace perfectly good phones. And yes,SydneyK, I could use my tablet for data,but it is a little cumbersome to take it out with me,but don't need it for my work . I just took it out for the first time recently to see how well it works on Wi-Fi hotspots(I don't have or want a data plan).Because I am a U-verse customer,I have access to 30,000 AT&T Wi-Fi hotspots AT NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE. I don't want to pay for something (web access)that I can't use on this phone. If Verizon can't give me cost-effective solutions,then I will be forced to transfer my number to AT&T Wireless as of August 30 for a GoPhone. AT&T wants my business and are wiling to do anything to satisfy me. Haven't had any trouble with Verizon either. Yes, their customer service is still available 24/7 even thought you will have to wait a while sonetimes. I just hate the thought of having to go through the hassle of transferring my number to another carrier.

Why isn't my browser supported?

One of the challenges of delivering desktop-quality software
inside a browser is, well, the browser itself. For more details on
our approach to browser support, its challenges, etc. please see
the posting on the Acrobat.com blog.
http://blogs.adobe.com/acom
Browsers aren't all the same, and there is a fair amount of
work to get things working right, especially with keyboard
shortcuts and the clipboard. We've focused on the most common
browsers first: Firefox (Mac & Windows), Internet Explorer 6
and 7, and Safari 3.
For example: We’d like to follow convention and provide
the typical Cmd-B shortcut to make text bold. However, Firefox on
the Mac uses Cmd-B to open bookmarks in the sidebar; so Buzzword
was forced to use Ctrl-B for making text bold.
For
Firefox under Linux, we're providing limited support. We
have done some testing and we believe it works well, but we're
interested in your feedback. Please be sure to upgrade to the
latest Linux version of Flash Player 9 available at
http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer,
and also be sure to adjust your preferences as described in the
initial page you'll see when visiting the application in Firefox
under Linux.
Other browsers may work (Opera, Camino, etc.) to some extent,
but we can’t make assurances that all functions will work.
We appreciate hearing from users who want to give Buzzword a
spin under non-supported browsers, as it helps us focus our efforts
and testing.

Hi,
After trying Opera AND Firefox to post a reply to "Why isn't my browser supported?" I'm now using IE (7 not 8 - that's not working, too!). Maybe that's the first thing that should work in all browsers - the forum.
The second thing, and that's why I originally wanted to post something here, is that I had problems typing "&" and "/" in Opera. They don't seem to be at the same key as usual. (I have a german keyboard...):
Shift + ^1234567890ß´
Key (normal): °!“§$%&/()=?`
Key (buzzword): ^!@#$%^&*()ß`
Additionally everything seems a little bit slow...

Ireen

Multiple Browser Support in Webcenter

No, there is no Java support in the iPhone. (There is javascript, but that's obviously quite different.)

Reader 64 bit browser support

We would like to enable PDF file scanning from our graphing tool, but need Adobe to provide a 64 bit version of nppdf32.dll for browser support. We provide this scanning functionality from the 32 bit versions of Ansys Simplorer and Ansys Maxwell, but eliminate the PDF option for our 64 bit versions, because the CHtmlView we use won't load PDF files. The technical world is moving rapidly to 64 bits. Where is Adobe?

There is currently no 64-bit plugin available, but I have a strong feeling that it will be there in Reader 12.

I am using OS 10.8.5 on a MacBook Pro, what version of Widows 8 should I purchase so I have an IE browser for some vendors I need to communicate who only have IE browser support?

I am using OS 10.8.5 on a MacBook Pro, what version of Widows 8 should I purchase so I have an IE browser for some vendors I need to communicate who only have IE browser support?

but if all you need is to use internet explore and not play 3d games then
using bootcamp is overkill and overcomplex
use a free virtual machine such as virtualbox https://www.virtualbox.org/
and you'll have IE comming out of your ears in no time

How to check whether the browser supports cookie using servlet

Hi
I have a servlet that uses session.I want to check whether the browser supports cookie.
Please help me how can i detect this using servlet.
could you please include a sample code
thanks
sabu

You can check whether any cookies were sent in the request to your servlet:
Cookie cookies[] = request.getCookies();
if cookies is not null (cookies != null) then the browser sending you the request suppoerts cookies.
If it is null then you would need to do a little extra work. Basically add a cookie to the response going back to the browser. Then send a redirect back to this same servlet. You then would have to add code to check to see whether the cookie was sent back.
// Servlet named myServlet
String test = request.getParameter("TEST");
Cookie cookies[] = request.getCookies();
if (test == null || !test.equals("TRUE")
if (cookies == null)
response.addCookie("testCookies","testCookies");
response.sendRedirect("myServlet?TEST=TRUE");
else
// cookies were sent in the initial request, so
// browser supports cookies
else
// This is the redirect. Check the for the presence of
// our testCookie
Hope this helps.

ADF Faces RC browser support and browser market share

hi
Given the current browser support in JDeveloper 11g (ADF (Faces RC)), for IE 7.0 (not IE 6), FF 2.0, FF 3.0, ...
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12839_01/install.1111/e13666/OJDIG.htm#BDCJBGBC
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/htdocs/jdeveloper11gfaq.html#P0
(Why Oracle has chosen to do so has been discussed before, in threads ADF 11g: Browser support for Internet Explorer 6, Browser certificaion clarification JDev 11gr1, ...)
Given some information available online about browser market share ...
http://marketshare.hitslink.com/browser-market-share.aspx?qprid=3
http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp
http://www.w3counter.com/globalstats.php
http://www.thecounter.com/stats/
... it looks like about 20 to 30 percent is still Internet Explorer 6 (which is not supported by ADF Faces Rich Client components).
Which role should this play in a decision to choose for ADF Faces Rich Client components to build an internet application today?
Maybe some can share their experience in making such choice.
many thanks
Jan Vervecken

Hi Jan,
(e1) That's a really good example, but the deciding point is different than browser version imho.
In that example, the hospital control its technological infrastructure so I would say it's safe to ask the users to upgrade as the hospital team is actually going to do it. In this case it depends if the hospital itself is willing to upgrade its apps, not the users. However, the patients are a special kind of users of which at least a small amount will be physically disabled to some point so you'll have to evaluate the accessibility potential of ADF Faces RC and, as most rich libraries, it's not that awesome. So, in that example, I think you would have to use pure Trinidad instead as its accessibility support is a bit better or at least reduce the usage of rich features in RC (like no drag-drop since it's a nightmare for both blind and mobility reduced users).
(e2) imho, no it wouldn't be safe to use RC if the target date is within 1 year since you don't control the user base in that example and not supporting a browser might cut your customer base and thus reduce your revenue.

Will iCloud Drive support Spotlight comments? If so, will they be accessible and capable of being edited on an iPhone or iPad?

I like to remind myself of next actions for my files and folders on my Mac by using the Spotlight comments in OS X. I noticed iCloud Drive is going to support "Tags" in OS X Yosemite.
Question: Will iCloud Drive support Spotlight comments (in addition to Tags)? And, if so, will I be able to access and manipulate those Spotlight comments on my iPhone or iPad?

If you really want to import as a WAV file, go to Edit > Preferences > General > Import Settings, and set "Import Using" to "WAV Encoder," as shown below. Then rip the CD.
