Is there a workaround for the Safari "clickable hidden content" bug?

Hi,
I'm encountering a bug in Safari where hidden content (non-visible content hidden with the CSS attribute overflow:hidden) to be clickable. I did some googling and found other people who are having this same problem:
http://www.dmxzone.com/forum/go/?35908
http://archivist.incutio.com/viewlist/css-discuss/76660
http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/webkit-dev/2005-November/000496.html
But no one seems to have a workaround for this. The last post contains a reply by an Apple developer saying he checked in a bug fix for this, but his reply was posted two years ago and I'm still seeing the problem.
Does anyone know of a workaround for this? Hacks or kludges welcome.
Cheers,

Hi
As Safari uses the WebKit structure, you may find an answer to your question at the FreeNode Network. You may also find help at the WebKit Open Source Project.

Is there a workaround for the missing global track chords?

Is there a workaround for the missing global track chords? i.e. will Apple loops follow the chord progression in a track?

I found sort of a work around. I still have Logic Pro 9. It turns out that if you go into global tracks, analyze the chords then go back to logic pro x the chord progression is preserved. So the information is preserved there just seems no way to create it in X.

FR Studio - Is there a workaround for the issue with referencing data from a grid with a different DB connection and different # of dimensions?

Hi,
I am trying to reference a column in a different grid with a different database connection. I did some research in the forums, and it seems like this is a known issue with FR Studio. The issue is that if the 2 different database connections have different # of dimensions, then the reference will throw an error.
For example, what I'm trying to do is below:
In grid2.column[A], I have the following formula:
grid1.column[A]
The result is an error.
The ultimate goal is to have a basic variance formula in the grid between grid1 and grid2, which have different database connections with a different # of dimensions. Is there a workaround at all to this bug? The example of the basic formula is below:
grid1.column[A] - grid2.column[A]
Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks,
Tiffany

Thanks for the detailed response Mike.
The issue with trying it in Grid1 vs Grid2 is that Grid1's DB connection has more dimensions than Grid2's DB connection. I can't change the DB connection to a database with more dimensions because you have to be able to map all dimensions from the existing DB connection (Grid1) to the new DB connection (Grid2). This isn't possible, so instead I have to map Grid2 (less dimensions) to Grid1 (more dimensions). It just ignores the extra dimensions from Grid1. Does that make sense?
Thanks again for your responses. It's very much appreciated.

Is there a workaround for the thumbnail regeneration issue in CS5?

Hullo.
A friend uses my old version of CS5 and she is stuck with ACR 6.7, because this is the last version available in CS5.
She seems to have huge problems in Bridge with the thumbnail regeneration bug described here, for instance: Cropping to an edge confuses Adobe Bridge?
Concretely, although she has a relatively powerful machine, she is unable to work because there are always tens and tens of thumbnails being generated and her eight virtual cores completely fill the disk bandwidth, making Bridge impossible to use. I am not 100% sure that it is exactly this bug, but everything seems to correspond perfectly well: hundreds of DNG files with lens correction activated and very many cropped manually.
Now, this is a confirmed bug of ACR 6.7 until ACR 8.2. She cannot switch to the latter without purchasing a newer version of Photoshop/Bridge.
Does Adobe provide any fix for this bug in CS5? Could someone kindly point me to it? Her version of Bridge is simply unusable as is....
If the answer above is no, I would be interested to know if this seems legal (not to say ethical...) to anybody: she is (otherwise) pretty happy with CS5 and she would need to buy a new licence for the sole and exclusive reason that the product Adobe sold me has a known and proven bug which makes it virtually useless in her setting.
Thanks,
p.

There are two similar bugs:
The LPC+crop bug started with ACR 6.1 and was fixed in 8.2.
The LPC mystery bug started with ACR 7.3 and was fixed in 8.6.
Both bugs cause repeated thumbnail extractions in Bridge on some images with Lens Profile Corrections enabled.
As you are on ACR 6.7 it can only be the first bug. The only workaround I know is to ensure that the crop does not touch the edge of the corrected image. A few pixels gap will do it. Also, it helps to keep less images in a folder--but this can't be avoided when using Collections or Finds.
I'd imagine that Adobe won't fix CS5 just for this. Presumably there's something in the smallprint which admonishes them from responsibility after the shelf life of the product ends. To be fair, it's not like they fixed it straight away in CS6, unlike the Bridge CS5 database bug (thanks, Adobe). They were only able to reproduce the fault in summer 2013.

Is there a workaround for the transform/crop bug?

Happy Tuesday!
Does anyone know a way to get around this bug?
- I have two video clips.
- One video clip (on top) is a talking head that need to be placed in a box on the other clip.
- Apply transform to talking head clip. Scale and change position.
- Apply crop to talking head clip. Bring in left and right so image fits in the box.
Everything is good so far...
- Apply same transform and crop to other talking head clips in same project.
- Crop fails terribly for second and all subsequent attempts. It seems like there is a magic area for which the clip cannot render.
The first transform/crop works fine...
All subsequent transform/crops, either mannually applied or from copied attributes, do this: (The collection of icons are inside the box and is showing through from the bottom clip.)
If I drag the image around the screen, there seems to be a "magic area." If the image is in the magic area, everything is fine. If the image approached any edge of the screen, the bad crop effect happens. Here I have dragged the transform near the bottom left corner of the screen:
I have played with crop settings and the way the crop jumps, there seems to be some kind of logic bug in the cropping code, particularly with transform/crop combinations. Any help would be appreciated! This bug is a show-stopper, and I'm on a fairly tight schedule. Does anyone know of a way to get around this bug?
Tom

I guess, I'm of no help here.. I can crop and transform like crazy - no issues
I also tried your 'special' method, to crop/transform the main storyline (=what I wouldn't do) ... but the attached other clips appear without problems:
and after that 'arrangement', another one - no issues:
tsphillips wrote:
… Perhaps an interesting experiment would be to see what it takes to make a clip render outside of it's crop box.
here you lost me - in translation, sorry:
a clip OUTside its crop??
outside a crop is nothing, that's what a crop is for… shouldn't it?
cropping means; cutting-off parts of the pic, that icon is a passépartout..
so, outside a crop is … nothing to see here, Sir..
Sorry, of being no help here......
Would be interesting, what Cupertino will andswer you..........

Is there any workaround for the brother driver 2.8 update which seems to remove duplexing

It seems the brother printer 2.8 update of 12/14 has removed the ability to print in a duplex mode - i.e. both sides of a sheet. Printing proceeds in the usual fashion and the printer goes through the mechanics to print both sides, but doesn't and outputs the remainder on a second sheet. It is definitely the update as I have another machine which I, thankfully, did not update and that works fine with the same printer.
I tried to go back in Time Machine, but it isn't obvious what to restore and, so far, my attempts to do haven't been successful.

After a bit of experimenting it turns out that somehow the update either defaults to a CUPS definition that causes this weird behavior or the old profile tigether with the update is problematic. It I download the current drivers at Brother and change to Brother HL-5250DN BR-Script 3 all is well.

Has anyone got a workaround for the iTunes 12 sorting movies bug?

I have movies in various playlists in my iTunes 12.0.1 library with various metadata and nice artwork added.
When selecting sort by 'Genre', 'Sort Albums by Title' or sort by 'Albums' then 'Sort by Title' (both of these sorting options to enable browsing using the artwork) the movies are not sorted by title.
They are sorted by 'director' metadata, which is not my intended outcome. It looks like iTunes is treating movies like music and sorting by artist/director.
Even adding 'sort name' doesn't fix this. Does anyone know a workaround to this?
I have submitted a bug report to Apple.

Is there a workaround for websites that use "frames" when Safari does not support?

Is there a workaround for a website that requires "frames" when Safari (5.0.6) does not support it?

Has anyone found a work-around for this that works?
No. Any attempt to use an unsupported network device with Time Machine will probably result in data loss, even if it seems to be working at first. If you take data protection seriously, you won't try.
Is it possible to get Time Machine to use SMB to make the backups?
No.

10.2 crashes when I try to convert old libraries for use in the new software. Is there a workaround for this? Or will i have to continue using the previous version to complete older projects?

Final Cut Pro X 10.2 crashes when I try to convert old libraries for use in the new software. Is there a workaround for this? Or will I have to continue using the previous version to complete older projects? the only foreseeable solution is to begin any new projects on 10.2 or importing footage on 10.2 and starting form scratch--which is something i definitely don't want to do or have time to do. ANY advice, thoughts, or opinions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
Running 10.10.3 // MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Early 2013) // 2.4 GHz Intel Core i7 // 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

Exactly the same problem with me.
Some other threads advice to remove fonts, clean the caches, remove add ins but nothing works consistenty, for some it looks like it works, for me it failed.
What I did not try yet, was to move the Render files out of the malicious library to trash.

JDev team: is there a workaround for bug1482140?

I would like to know if anybody has figured out a workaround for bug 1482140 which is listed in the JDeveloper 3.2.2 readme. It states that it is not possible to deploy EJBs to 8.1.7 running on Solaris. It also indicates that it should have been fixed in 8.1.7.1 but the list of fixed bugs in 8.1.7.1 does not include this one. When is this going to be fixed? Why is there no status on it in Metalink? Is there something clever I can do similar to the workaround given for deploying BC4J?
Thanks for any help,
Matt

Uh, dude? What are you talking about? I've seen the workaround for the aurora_client.jar bit but I thought it only applied to BC4J as it says in the HOWTO under the JDEV docs. As for the 8.1.7.1b patch, this is the first I've heard of it. It doesn't help that searching for this bug under Metalink doesn't produce any results. The way I see it is that I should be able to enter the Bug number in Metalink, and it tells me what patchset the bug is fixed in. That mechanism seems to have broken down here. oh well, I have no problem with having to be told something twice, I'm not perfect. At least I have the stones to post messages with my name and email address Mr d. cheers.

Workaround for the Fade/Appear blocky text problem in IE

Just wanted to share with folks a workaround for the IE
"blocky text" problem that you see when using Fade effects like the
one used in this example:
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/data_region/DetailRegionEffectsSample.html
It turns out if you set the 'background' CSS property on the
element you are fading, that IE properly renders the text. So to
fix the effects sample above, all you would have to do is modify
this CSS rule in the file to place a background color on the
description region to get things to look good in IE:
#description {
opacity: 0;
filter: alpha(opacity=0);
background: white;
So if folks have been avoiding the use of effects because it
makes things look terrible in IE, you now have a workaround.
--== Kin ==--

I was using spry's AppearFade effect to transition between
"slides" in what equates to a viewstack that I created.
Then I noticed that it would take bold text in IE and make it
look all smudgy or blurry.
Well, after working on it for a while, I got to thinking,
"This problem is specific to text rendered in MicroSofts
browser"... "Hmmm, I wonder".
So, I tried using this style rule: [ font-family:"MS Sans
Serif",Arial, Geneva, sans-serif; ].
Lo and behold, feed the stupid MS browser an MS font and it
does not blur the text.
I just wanted to get this our there. Because someone might
want to solve this in a way where they don't have to set a
background color...

Airport Extreme- anybody have a workaround for the lack of Wake on LAN ?

I've read in a number of places that the Airport Extreme (and other Apple routers) don't allow for the standard Wake on LAN packet to wake a sleeping Mac.
Does anybody know of a workaround for the Airport Extreme that might allow for waking a sleeping Mac on the LAN remotely ?
Thanks,
Ed

Is there a fix for the wifi connectivity issue after ios6 update?

Is there a fix for the wifi connectivity issue after ios6 update?
Cannot connect to any wifi since update to 6.0.1
How do I get update to 6.0.2?
Will that even help?

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Any workarounds for the X11 apps segmentation faults on intel with 10.4.8 ?

Hi,
We've an X11 application, compiled for PPC, which runs fine with a G5 iMac on 10.4.8. However, it crashes with a segmentation fault on a MacBook Pro with 10.4.8 (running through Rosetta).
Searching the web, we found that this seems to be a widespread problem for X11 apps running on Intel Macs with 10.4.8.
Has this been submitted as an important bug to Apple?
Are there any workarounds for it?
Is the problem specific to PPC-only builds, or does it also happen with Universal builds?
Thank you for any hints you could give about this,
cesar
Mac OS X (10.4.8)

A powerpc-binary program running under Rosetta can only load powerpc-binary modules...can't cross in and out of emulation within a single process. Perhaps your program is trying to load a module from X11 that is present as an intel-only binary? Rosetta is certainly no future-looking cure-all, just a stop-gap to allow one to keep using older stuff, and it is kinda fragile sometimes. If your target audience is both powerpc and intel machines, compile as a universal binary so it's native for everyone.
