Issue launching Cisco WebEx from Safari after 10.6 install

Since the 10.6 install I found that launching Cisco WebEx from Safari failed - it just hung with the 'Please Wait' message in the browser.
WebEx tech support do not have an official fix for this at this time, but we did go through setting-up Safari to only open as 32-bit, and this appears to be a valid work-around for anyone with this issue.
Go to APPLICATIONS - control click SAFARI - select GET INFO
Check the 'open in 32-bit mode' option - restart Safari
WebEx should now launch ok from Safari.
Hope that helps!
Chris.

William - is 32-bit mode going to cause issues for any other application within Safari?
Just trying to decide if I should only switch to 32-bit when using WebEx, and stick with 64-bit the rest of the time?
Thx.

  • Open PDF files from Safari after deleting Acrobat Reader

    I can not open PDF files from Safari. I already threw to trash Acdobe Reader and internet plugs in, too. Can anybody help me

    I know you said you threw away the internet plug-ins, but you should double-check this since that is a very common cause of the behavior you describe.

  • Spinning Ball from Safari after Wakeup

    Hi,
    I have a 15" Macbook Pro 2 GHz Intel Core i7 with upgraded ram to 8 GB and a 120 GB SSD. Upon wakeup after putting my macbook to sleep, Safari will stall with a spinning beach ball for what seems like half a minute. It appears to be the only app doing this and I can sometimes launch and hit a page with Firefox in the time it takes the beach ball to go away in Safari. This did not happen in my previous five year old 15" MBP with an Intel Core Duo that was using the same SSD.
    This is highly annoying. Any advice how to remedy the issue?
    Thanks.

    Here's what finally worked for me:
    Try shutting down Safari, then delete the following:
    /Users/<user>/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari
    /Users/<user>/Library/Caches/Metadata/Safari
    /Users/<user>/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
    /Users/<user>/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.RSS.plist
    /Users/<user>/Library/Safari
    Well, I swore I did all those, maybe except the "/Users/<user>/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari" one, but all is well now! Browsing great. Thanks!

  • Issues with opening epub in Safari after ios 6.1 (10B141) update

    After upgrading to ios 6.1 on both iPad 2 and new iPad (4) epubs don't open correctly in Safari. Regularly downloading epubs from www.jw.org. When trying to click on epub, a new tab opens, it appears to be downloading but once appear to be fully downloaded Safari closes the tab again. If I go to history and click on the epub link in the list it load the page correctly and shows the ibooks icon on the middle of the screen + asking if I like to open in ibooks.
    Anyone experiencing similar issues?

    Me too. After upgrade I am unable to download epubs from jw.org directly to ibooks. Checked my moms and hers is the same. Very upsetting to have to go the long way by syncing to itunes on my pc to get recent literature. Who's issue: Apple or JW? What changed? Who needs to fix it? Who to ask? Don't take the update until this is resolved!! HELP!!!

  • ICloud storage issue; Restoring iPhone calendar from iMac after accidental iCloud deletion

    I set up iCloud to back up calendars and contacts and for find my phone.  Initially, it seemed to work alright.  Then I got messages on iPhone that there wasn't enough iCloud storage, even though the storage tab showed that I had used none of my iCloud storage at all.  So I turned off iCloud/contacts.   In iTunes I switched back from iCloud backup to backup from my iMac. 
    Later I got the same message about not enough room in iCloud even though only calendars involved.  So I truned off iCloud/calendar on my iPhone and was given the choice of keeping the calendars from the iCloud or deleting them (a foolish choice without a failsafe!!!).  I clumsily and mistakenly hit delete.  My calendars have most recently been synced with my new iMac and appear on the iMac and should also be in TM.  But right now there is no data in my iPhone calendar.
    When i go to calendars within the iiphone calendar there is a check next to Calender under "from MY Mac" and no reference to iCloud.  (There are no separate calendars for me, my wife, and joint.  Does this mean somehow these calendars have been merged because of iCloud?)
    I don't want to do another sync until I can make sure that the sync with the iMac will resotre the calendar(s) to the iPnone.  How do I do this?
    Do I have to do anything on the iMac before I try a sync?
    How do I avoid these problems in the future?  The only thing I really would like from iCloud is "find my phone".  How do I keep that capability without backing up or su=yncing otherwise anything through iCloud? 
    Is iCloud still Beta?

    Apple walked me through this and helped me revert to backing up on my iMac, using iCloud only for find my iPhone and iMac.  The process, however, is not straightforward and what the respective mac and iPhone support people (yes, they have that kind of specialization) led me through was clearer, if somewhat convoluted, than any instructions on Apple's support or community pages.
    Since my main concern was not losing my calendar and contacts information, the key was saving that, via export, to my desktop.  Sorry I didn't write down all the other steps - but I see that as Apple's job.  Back in the days of the IIC, Apple's manual was a model of clarity and completeness at the same time.
    Bottom line is while my immediate concerns were resolved, the underlying iCloud storage issue was not.  On my iPhone, I was being told that my attempts to backup to the iCloud failed because I didn't have enough storage, even though I determined almost none of my alloted space was used.  This issue is not helped by the multiplicity of settings relating to iCloud, or the interfaces (such as the iCloud on the iMac through Mavericks) which present a screen of icons without additional information.
    For my purposes, iCloud remains Beta.

    Hi,
    I think the easiest way to do this is to create a form function that launches the workbook. Then call the form function from the button on the screen. This will work in a similar way to calling the workbook from a menu item. This will not work if you want to pass parameters contained in the form to the Discoverer workbook.

  • Unblocking a website from Safari after blocking through Terminal

    I recently blocked a website after following these instructions:
    "Click on Go at the menu bar.
    Go to Utilities and select Terminal in the window that opens. (without quotation marks)
    Type in “sudo pico /etc/hosts” (without quotations)
    You will be asked for you password. Enter it.
    Terminal will open the hosts file. Move the curser down to the end of it and enter in the following (without quotation marks):
    “127.0.0.1 http://www.facebook.com”
    “127.0.0.1 http://www.youtube.com” "
    I now need to unblock and don't know how to. I tried doing the same thing except deleting the field and saving. Then it said to overwrite file, I said yes. It just didn't work...

    Be sure file isn't locked.
    sudo find /private/etc -flags uchg
    any locked files in /etc will show up.
    If it is locked, this command unlocks it:
    sudo chflags nouchg /private/etc/hosts
    You can also use vi(m) to edit the file.
    vi commands cheat sheat:

  • Files missing from library after archive and install

    Hi forum folk
    any help you could give would be much appreciated.
    I can't seem to verify my permissions on HD. I have run disk utility both from finder and from my OSX startup disk and consistently get the error message "Disk Utility has lost its connection with the Disk Management Tool and cannot continue." I then reinstalled the operating system all together making sure to archive and install as well as archive previous network and preference settings. This means I am running 10.3.4 at the moment (and I can't verify any of the software updates at the moment). After reinstalling I still cannot verify my permissions, so now I am trying to back up all my files so that I can reinstall the OSX again, erase everything, and start from scratch. But I'm running into some very strange problems while doing this. select files are missing from ~/library. there is no Safari file, for example. I tried looking in HD/previous systems/library where my library files were saved before I reinstalled the operating system but there is no such folder in there either. this means all of my bookmarks are gone. additionally, under library/preferences (in both the old and new library folders) there is no file named com.apple.itunes.plst. so all of my itunes playlists are gone as well. these are the only missing files I have found thus far and i can't explain why they selectively would not have been saved after the archive and install. Everything else seems to be intact. Any ideas?
    thanks

    my HD has a capacity of 8.85 GB available. When I reinstalled panther I had little more than 3 GB available (I deleted a bunch of unneeded things since then)
    Thanks for this update. What is the total formatted capacity of your HDD? I ask because I suspected that you might be cutting it pretty close. The rule of thumb is that you should have 10-15% of your total capacity available as free space. My personal rule is 15%-20%. This allows for more efficient perfomrance of OS X.
    I am in the process of backing up everything on my seagate combo USB 2.0/firewire 200 GB external (I am using the firewire cord)
    Having an up-to-date backup is one of the primary rules, often observed more in the breach than not. Since you have an HDD that supports Firewire, I suggest that you make a bootable clone of your entire HDD using SuperDuper. You can then use this backup as an emergency boot drive. However, it must be Firewire, as PPC Macs don't boot from USB devices.
    I also have heard that it is advisable to reinstall the OS "every now and again" and I hadn't done this for at least two years. was I ill-advised?
    Most experienced Mac users never re-install, except under dire circumstances. Since installing my new HDD in this computer I have never re-installed. Re-installation is the utlimate intrusive measure, and it exposes one to all kinds of issues, from lost data, to flawed installaton, to installations that fail midstream. Re-installation is not an effective maintenace procedure. Here are some helpful links in terms of maintenance:
    Mac OS X 10.3/10.4: System maintenance
    Macintosh OS X Routine Maintenance
    Maintaining OS X.
    I'm going to restart now and try and verify my permissions again using the procedure on the above link. I'll let you know what happens.
    Instead of verifying permissions, just go ahead and Repair Disk Permissions. Verifying permissions does nothing, and wastes your time, as it is difficult to tell whether you need to repair, and you have to repair anyway.
    Do post back with an update of your progress and any further questions or comments.
    Good luck.

  • Flash player won't play videos in safari after I've installed Lion does anyone have a solution?

    Hi,
    I've installed Lion after which Flash Player won't play videos with Safari. I keep being prompted to download and install the latest version of Flash Player whcih I've done several times. Can someone please help me fix this.
    I find Adobe's announcement that there are no issues with Flash Player and Lion a bit of a sick joke.
    Many thanks,
    Ian Pickering

    This sounds like the problems that Adobe have reported which are listed at
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/905/cpsid_90508.html#main_Flash_Player
    I only use flash for watching video clips on the BBC website so haven't been affected by these other issues. The text below is copied from the website at the above link. Hope this helps.
    The Flash Player Settings dialog box doesn't respond to mouse clicks. As a workaround, press the Tab key to move to the Close button and press the spacebar to close the dialog box. While not all settings are available, you can also use the Flash Player native control panel in System Preferences.
    Custom native mouse cursors don't animate properly on Mac OS 10.7.

  • Recovery Partition won't engage at boot from F11 after stock Win7 install - Probook 4520s

    Notebook: HP Probook 4520s (with Energy Star sticker)
    OS: Windows 7 32-bit
    Error: Nothing happens when pressing F11 at boot
    Pre-issue changes: Installed Windows 7 from stock Windows 7 disc
    I'm a PC Technician with quite a few years behind me, but this got me at a standstill even after a day of searching online for solutions.
    A friend bought a ProBook 4520s where the previous owner, just before selling it, installed Windows 7 from a stock Windows 7 disc from Microsoft (I guess to sell it with a 'clean' OS), which of course ened up bare without drivers, etc.
    When the install was done though, he/she didn't destroy the HP partitioning (ie, the partitions remained:  SYSTEM, OS (c:\), HP_RECOVERY, HP_TOOLS). Those partitions seem intact, so I'm trying to perform an HP Recovery to bring the computer back to factory settings.
    When rebooting, I'm prompted to press 'esc' for options, which I do, then it prompts 'F11' for HP Recovery. When I press F11, it just boots the Windows 7 OS as normal. From what I've managed to gather via searching, I believe something was disturbed on the HP_RECOVERY partition, like the MBR, or something, possibly by the previous user making the HP_RECOVERY partition active, then selecting "Repair Windows" on the Windows disc.
    Solutions I've tried include:
    Pressing ESC -> F11 at boot [simply boots as usual].
    Setting the HP_RECOVERY partition to 'active' from Disc Management, then rebooting [simply boots as usual].
    Installing "Enhanced HP Backup and Recovery Manager for Microsoft Vista" (sp38131.exe) [when run and PC Recovery is selected, it says there is no recovery partition and asks for discs].
    Installing "Fix for HP Multi-Partition Recovery Manager" from (sp48415.exe) suggest in the 'green post' here [no change].
    Installing "Recovery Manager Installer Patch for Microsoft Windows 7 Upgrade" (sp45823.exe)  [no change].
    Installing "HP Recovery Manager for Microsoft Windows 7" (sp45602.exe) [no change].
    I live far from having access to buying Recovery DVDs from HP, so need a solution to fix this, please. At most, I can download.
    The OS in the Recovery, I expect is Windows 7, because there's a Windows 7 sticker on the notebook.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hi:
    There isn't anything you can do to get the recovery partition to work once someone removed the HP install with the recovery manager program, which is not available for download.
    You will need to order a set of recovery disks by calling 1-800-334-5144.
    You will need to provide the model # and serial number for the PC to the customer services rep.
    Cost is $10.
    If you do not want to bear the expense, then you can make your own W7 installation disk.
    If you can read the 25 character Microsoft windows 7 product key, you can download plain Windows 7 ISO files to burn to a DVD for the version of windows that came installed on your PC, and that is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC's case.
    Burn the ISO using the Burn ISO option on your DVD burning program and burn at the slowest possible speed your program will allow. This will create a bootable DVD.
    Use the 25 character product key on the PC to activate the installation.
    The key will activate either a 32 or 64 bit installation.
    Then go to the PC's support and driver page to install the drivers you need.
    Link to the W7 ISO file downloads is below.

  • Need advice on restoring from TimeMachine after new harddrive install

    I will be installing a larger hard drive in my MacBook Pro tomorrow.
    I have Time Machine backup on on an external drive.
    I would appreciate any tips on restoring once I get the new 500gb drive installed.
    I also have a full drag and drop backup on another external HD.
    I do have my OS10.5 install disk if needed.
    Harold

    boot from the leopard install DVD and select 'restore system from backup' from the Utilities menu at the top. follow the instructions. this will restore your whole system to the state it was in at backup time. another option is to clone the current internal to an external using Superduper or CCCloner (NOT drag and drop). then install the new drive, boot from the clone and clone it back to the new internal. this bypasses using TM altogether.
