Images in non-Safari browsers not full color

I find that on some web sites, Facebook in particular, the JPEG images are washed-out. In Safari all images display correctly. In Google Chrome, Firefox, and Opera they are washed-out. If I right-click the image and save it, it will display correctly in Preview. I think this behavior began after an OS X update months ago. I took some screen captures today to illustrate the problem. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Using OS X 10.9.5 on a 2012-vintage Mac mini with a calibrated, Samsung external monitor (S23C350: Resolution: 1920 x 1080 @ 60Hz (1080p); Pixel Depth: 32-Bit Color (ARGB8888))
Cheers,
Paul

Today, 2014-10-09, I see all the browsers display images correctly. How odd. I don't see any obvious updates to system software. Safari last updated to v7.1 on September 20, before my post. In any case, this problem is (magically) solved.

P.S. I wonder where my screen captures went. The did include a picture of Jack Ma from a news site. Kind of hard to illustrate the problem if they are auto-removed somehow.

Non-safari browsers on osx access to XI

We have large number of researchers on Macs needing access to BO XI Rel 3 ( 12.1.0 ) with Tomcat as the server.
We need them to be able to get via SSO however any browser used (Firefox, Opera, Safari) gets a 401 (authorization error). This did not happen when we were using IIS as the server. We upgraded in order to take advantage of certain features but got bit by this.
We've altered Firefox's parameters
network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris
network.negotiate-auth.delegation-uris
network.negotiate-auth.trusted-uris
which didn't do anything.
An official support ticket yielded "We don't support non-IE browsers".
This is probably an OS X setup and postings in other areas suggest this can be done but there are no directions.
Given SAP / Bus Obj push into healthcare / biotech it seems that this has to have happened and been dealt with.
Anyone have any ideas ?
danke

We do certainly support firefox and usually setting up SSO with the parameters you specified will work. The other browsers I'm not so sure. BO has absolutely no control here. Maybe understanding what SSO actually is will help....
So when SSO is configured on BO(I'm assuming true SSO such as kerberos or NTLM). The website (virtual directory) will no longer allow anonymous access and will present a 401 (challenge to the browser). The trick you have to find out is if your browser supports spnego/NTLM and how to configure it. Typically on a windows server with IE the AD user logs in with their credentials. The browser hits the site and receives the 401 (like your error). The browser then checks its rules to see if it is allowed to send the user logged in credentials. If the rules permit (a common reason would be for intranet sites where IE SSO is enabled by default) then the browser will negotiate either NTLMSSP or spnego and the AD user will be authorized to access BO based on their mapped AD account permissions.
Now I'm not sure you OS is supported, do you login to it with AD? Have you found steps for setting up spnego or NTLM SSP. As all of these components AD, the browsers, the OS are outside of our products there is very little our support engineers can do when it doesn't work other than goggling possible solutions. We do have documented solutions for IE and firefox on windows (which I have heard will work for firefox on Mac as well).

Visited links on safari do not change color

Hi, I use safari Version 5.1.10 (6534.59.10) and when i browse the search results on google, the color of visited links does not change (it should turn form blue to purple). This does not happen when i use other browsers. I have already tried to reset and empty cache.. ANy suggestions?? this is very annoying

I don't know if they're not changing color for you, but for me the purple (visited link) looks too similar to the link (blue) for my bad corneas to distinguish unless I squint.
I found the link below helped, and it works!
How do I change color of links visited?

Any blog templates safe in non-Safari browsers? Blog Summary Widget?

I've tried "Doodle" and "Darkroom" and in both cases, the blog summary page (first page) does not work in both Internet Explorer (Mac) and Firefox (Mac). In both, the Blog Summary Widget does not work. The pictures and text are missing and is replaced with text that says "Blog Summary Widget."
For the test, I did nothing to change or edit the templates. I just published them them as is. They look great in Safari, but no go in Firefox 1.0.2 and IE 5.2.3. I know these are probably not the most current versions of either, but I can guarantee that they're more recent than what my grandma has and she's more typical of my web audience I'm trying to do a family blog. I figured iWeb has cooler templates than Blogger.com and it would be easy since it's iLife. Too bad the blog page probably won't work on most computers' browsers. I don't have a Windows machine to test it on, but I'm guessing that they will be even more unforgiving. Is anyone else having better luck?
The only other factor is that I'm not using a .Mac account. I can't imagine that this could be the issue, but if it is, then that is really, really evil. It's bad enough that Apple punishes you for not having a .Mac account by making you FTP your entire site every time you make a change instead of incrementally (this is a separate thread topic).

Hello
I've settled on a modified Modern weblog template (http://www.kilayko.com) and it has worked well in the following browser/OS combinations:
Camino 1.5/Mac OS X
Safari 2/Mac OS X
Mobile Safari/iPhone
IE 6 and 7/Windows XP
Firefox 2/Windows XP
The only combination that seems to give me (a little) trouble is:
Opera/Wii
It seems to ignore the thumbnail images on both the main weblog and archive pages but the area is still clickable.
I know that these are somewhat newer versions than what you are targeting but it may point to a limitation in the JavaScript implementations in the older browser versions. It appears that many of the template elements make use of JavaScript for functionality.
I should note that I am also using .Mac - although I don't think that should make a difference for the rendering.

Images visible in Safari but not in Firefox

I am having a problem with something that should be rudimentary in i-web.
When I create a new page using a "photos" template everything seems to show up when building the site.
When I view the website online everything seems fine in Safari.
I can view the slideshow in static or dynamic mode. I can click the download button.
If Firefox, however, all I can see are the page links. No images show up.
For what it is worth I have uploaded the image via an FTP and automatically with Rage Webcrusher.
In both cases everything is fine in Safari but does not work in Firefox.
I have not attempted anything in Internet Explorer.
Any ideas what is happening?
Here is the test site:
http://leancabinetmaking.com/testoptimization/Blank.html

I downloaded updates 2.0.3 & 2.0.4 from the Apple menu.
When I booted up iWeb again I got the following error message:
Cant open file "/Applications/iWeb.app/Contents/Resources/Widgets/Detail.iwdgt."
When that happened I trashed the application and reloaded it fresh.
The same error message showed up again so I repeated the processes but this time I opened iWeb after just installing the 2.0.3 update. Same error message again.
Any suggestions?
For what it might be worth: Last week I modified some text in the slideshow screen to change the wording "Download" to "Enlarge Image". As I recall this referenced Widgets/detail.jwdgt.

Safari extensions not in color

My Safari browser, toolbar and all icons are grey. Does anyone know if you can install the Safari Extensions someway in which they appear in color ? ie; The Weather Channel, Pinterest, Evernote, etc.
I've seen other browsers/toolbars where the icons were in color, making it easier to find each of the icons when needed.
Thanks in advance for any useful advice and/or solutions.
MacBook Pro 17", using OS X 10.9.4 and Safari Version 7.0.5

If you want to change the color, use Download Firefox
Always good to have a backup browser installed in case you have problems with Safari and can't connect to the internt for help.

How do I set my default print to be grayscale (NOT full color)

I have an HP LaserJet CM1415fnw printer on a wireless network at home. We have a mac, macbook and 2 windows based computers. I do not want the printer to automatically print everything in color. How do I set the default to grayscale or black ink only? I have looked everywhere!!
Thank you!!
This question was solved.
View Solution.

One will need to have the full software installed on each computer to get this functionality.
To set greyscale:
* Open the Printing Preferences for the CM1410 driver that installs for this printer
* Select the Color tab at the top
* Click the Print in Greyscale check box
* Save the options and attempt a print
Let me know how this goes.

IPhoto images appear as thumbnails but not full images

Trying to e-mail images, using either drag-and-drop or copy/paste shows a warning triangle in iPhoto or an empty file in the e-mail.
Some images are OK.
Has there been a problem when iPhoto amends the library after an upgrade?
I'm running the latest version 9.5.1.
If I need to replace images using TimeMachine, how far do I need to go back please?
Thanks in anticipation...
g.

What happened directly before this problem occured? Was it directly after upgraded to iPhoto 9.5.1? Did you move your iPhoto library? Delete photos using the Finder? Where is your iPhoto library located?
warning triangle in iPhoto or an empty file in the e-mail.
This idicates that iPhoto has lost the connection between the thumbnails in the Browser and the original image files. The originals may be missing.
Too late Thry to rebuild your iPhoto library with the First Aid Tools, or, if even that will not succeed, with iPhoto Library Manager.
The procedure is described here by Old Toad:
Rebuild iPhoto Version 11: Old Toadhttps://discussions.apple.com/message/22114274#22114274
Try first "Fix 1", then "Fix 2".

Still no support for iOS devices or non-Safari browsers

Been a while now and still the new format doesn't support iOS devices - no formatting bar or ability to edit post. Still, alternative browsers, e.g. iCab and Atomic, have different issues like format bar does appear but keyboard doesn't.
Should we be expecting an update sometime soon?

I cant find it now, but i saw a post by an apple corp poster saying that this was done purposefully to ensure a "solid" release, or something like that. Basically, iOS devices arent considered a significant user base to be worried about giving VERY limited functionality to.
They basically said that it would be developed into future updates, but with no timelines. Sounded to me like it would be a VERY long time before we get anything above basic text editor abilities. No wait a second, basic text editors can do BOLD! We cant even do that.

When Safari is in full screen, the window slides off screen to the right after a short period of time. How do I fix this?

When Safari is in full screen, window slides off screen to the right after a few seconds. Does not happen if Safari is not full screen. How do I fix this?

You are probably inadvertently swiping to another full-screen app. Are you using a magic trackpad? Does this happen without you touching anything?

Newly created images will not display in Firefox 8 for Mac. Same images appear in other browsers. Why?

1. Specific new images are uploaded but will not display in Firefox 8 on my Mac with OS 10.6.8. (Does appear in other browsers, e.g., Chrome and Opera, and appears on Firefox 8 for PC.) Also, other images on the page display.
2. I have cleared cache, cookies, etc., in Recent History, and restarted both application and computer.
3. I've tried creating GIF, JPG and PNG, but none show on the page in Firefox on my Mac. I can see the offending image in other browsers such as Chrome on the same computer, and on Firefox on PC. Offending pages are in both PHP and HTML: http://www.brookfieldcivic.org/advertisers.php and http://www.brookfieldcivic.org/advertising_freedom_montessori.html
Image links: http://www.brookfieldcivic.org/images/advertisers/freedom.png and http://www.brookfieldcivic.org/images/advertisers/Freedom_Montessori_bizcard.jpg

You can use these steps to check if images are blocked:
*Open the web page that has the images missing in a browser tab.
*Click the website favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
*Click the "More Information" button to open the "Page Info" window with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
*Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
*Select the first image link and scroll down through the list with the Down arrow key.
*If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

Full image resolution in Safari

Safari doesn't render images at their full resolution, so even zooming won't get you a 1:1 pixel mapping. It helps to "Save" an image to the picture roll and view it in the Photos app, but that's so much work.
Isn't there a way to view only the image, like desktop Safari can? I just want to read a web comic, nothing huge.

No, I know exactly what is going on here. Back in december I was away on vacation and was using my iPad to copy all the raw images from my camera SD cards over to a ftp at home. I after the first few attempts I was noticing I was "uploading" a 5kX3k image in resolution, but mobile safari would only have a greatly reduced image uploaded. Luckily I was able to check on a laptop and saw that all my EXIF data was being preserved with the original image resolution. What I believe is happening is that the Mobile Safari in iOS devices have a scaling function on images so that it will preserve some of the image quality without having to wait for long periods of time to load an image. Your images are still the same size as the original upload, it is optimizing the image for viewing because you should not need a 1:1 pixel representation of LARGE images in mobile safari, if you do then you should be using a different device.

I just installed the new firefox for Mac OSX 10.6.8 and when I select an image on a site (right click and copy) and paste in Photoshop 5.5, the image lightens. It does not do this in Safari.

Firefox, Safari, and PhotoShop each handle embedded color profiles differently. For an add-on that makes it easier to experiment with Firefox's color management options, you might be interested in: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/color-management/ Color Management :: Add-ons for Firefox]. I haven't tried it myself.

Could not use color replacement tool because it only works in full color mode: Elements 11

I have a PSD file open and I added a new layer via the copy command. I have added a Layer Mask to the new layer and I'm trying to use the Brush Tool with black forground to cover part of the new layer. I'm following an online tutorial step by step, but when I try to use the Brush Tool I get "could not use color replacement tool because it only works in full color mode". The Image>Mode is set to RGB. I'm stuck!

First, show the tools optiond in the bottom of the screen (shortcut F4)
Now look at which of the three options you can select, brush, impressionist brush or replacement tool. I suspect you have to select the brush.
Edit:
The reason of the message is that when you are painting on a mask you are in greyscale mode for the mask. For instance, if you paste a coloured layer into a mask, it will be converted to greyscale.

Could not use the color replacement tool because it only works in full color modes

Hi, when trying to use the Color Replacement Tool, I get this error. I'm not sure how to get in full color mode. Please help.

Go to Image>Mode and be sure it's RGB and not index color or something.
