It seems the safari 5 update broke firefox access to apple developer forums

I can't seem to access the "Apple Developer Forums" link on the page: http://developer.apple.com/iphone/index.action
I had been accessing this fine through firefox, but after I did the safari 5 update last night, it seems I can only use safari 5 to get access. Does anyone know what the story is?
I get a 404 I think because it can't find an error doc to handle the get issue:
+Request Entity Too Large+
+The requested resource+
/iphone/discussionForum.action
+does not allow request data with GET requests, or the amount of data provided in the request exceeds the capacity limit.+
+Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.+
+Apache/2.2.9 (Unix) PHP/5.2.6 mod_jk/1.2.25 mod_perl/2.0.2 Perl/v5.8.8 Server at developer.apple.com Port 80+

It has been fixed.

After installing the safari update for windows, outlook is now not opening email hyperlinks. I have set safari to be my default browser but outlook won't open it when I click a link. I get the following message: "This operation has been canceled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator." Please help.

Hi mcclausky, you may need to manually remove a policy setting from the registry. You also should scan for malware that might have created this problem.
This article lists scanning and cleaning tools other Firefox users have found helpful: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]].
To check your Windows registry for policy settings that might affect Firefox or other programs, I suggest consulting a Windows forum or Microsoft's forums. For example:

After downloading the new update for Firefox I can no longer get Firefox to respond. I can only get it to respond in safe mode. Why?

After downloading the new update to Firefox I cannot get Firefox to respond. The only way I can use Firefox is in Safe Mode.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I updated to new version of Firefox

Cannot believe NO ONE from Firefox is responding to this issue; particularly since I don't seem to be the only one with the problem!!!!

I just downloaded the Safari update to 5.1 and on my Xfinity homepage, nothing I click on will open up. What is wrong?

After downloading the Safari update, and after MacBook had to do a restart, I went to my Bookmarks, clicked on XFinity to get my email. The home page opened, but nothing I have clicked on will open except the weather. I tried opening Email, TV, Support, Help, Log In, even the news stories and none of the links open. How do I go back to my previous Safari version so I can get my email?

Its always a good idea to have a few browsers to use. About 1/2 year ago Safari just stopped working intermittently and it took a lot of help from some of the experienced users on this forum to help me figure out why it was behaving the way it was. Without Firefox I would have been in trouble (because when Safari stopped working so did Chrome). Since then I have also downloaded Opera though I haven't used it. And I have also discovered that different websites work better with one browswer than with another. Anyway, I'm glad you figured out a way to get your emails.

I have some issues since I download the safari update

I have some problem with the safari update. When I open my computer (MacBook pro), safari open but I can't see the web page. the only thing that make the web page open is when I do this: I go in (french) Preference system / réseau / assistant / diagnostique.
My internet connection work fine.

Please test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
Take the applicable steps in this support article. The Wireless Diagnostics program generates a large file of information about your system, which would be used by Apple Engineering in case of a support incident. Don't post the contents here.
Be sure to test on more than one Wi-Fi network, if at all possible. A desktop computer can be tested with a mobile hotspot, such as the hotspot created by a cell phone. If the problem only exists on one network, then the access point of that network should be the focus of your attention, not the computer.
Step 2
Disconnect all USB 3 devices. If you don't know which are USB 3, disconnect all USB devices except keyboard and mouse.
Step 3
If you're not using a wireless keyboard or trackpad, disable Bluetooth by selecting Turn Bluetooth Off from the menu with the Bluetooth icon. If you don't have that menu, open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and check the box marked Show Bluetooth in menu bar. Test. If you find that Wi-Fi works better with Bluetooth disabled, you should use the 5 GHz Wi-Fi band. Your router may not support it; in that case, you need a new router.
Step 4
Open the Energy Saver pane in System Preferences and unlock the settings, if necessary. Select the Power Adapter tab, if there is one. Uncheck the box marked
Wake for Wi-Fi network access
if it's checked.
Step 5
Open the Network pane in System Preferences and make a note of your settings in the Wi-Fi service. It may be helpful to take screenshots of the various tabs in the preference pane. If the preference pane is locked, unlock it by clicking the padlock icon and entering your administrator password. Delete Wi-Fi from the service list on the left by selecting it and clicking the minus-sign button at the bottom. Then recreate the service by clicking the plus-sign button and following the prompts.
Step 6
In the Wi-Fi settings, select
Advanced... ▹ TCP/IP ▹ Configure IPv6: Link-local
Click OK and then Apply.
Step 7
Reset the System Management Controller.
Step 8
Reset the PRAM.
Step 9
Launch the Keychain Access application. Search for and delete all AirPort network password items that refer to the network. Make a note of the password first. Turn Wi-Fi off and then back on. You'll be prompted for the password when you reconnect. Save it in the keychain.
Step 10
Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service center.

Before the recent updates to Firefox, clicking on the back button always brought me back to the same place on the page where I had been, but now it brings me to the top of the page. How do I restore the previous feature?

Before the recent updates to Firefox, when I would go to another page in the same window and then clickon the back button, Firefox used to bring me back to the same place on the page where I had been, but now it brings me to the top of the page, meaning that I have to laboriously scroll down to the old place. How do I restore the previous feature?

That change was made in Firefox 4, 6 months ago.
Click-hold the unified Back / Forward button <br />
or <br />
right-click it to get the Back / Forward history for that tab.
Or install this extension to get the old "drop-marker" button restored. <br />

How do I get the downloads popup/tab to go back to the old place (on the left side?) Now that I have the latest update of Firefox, it moved it over to the right

I would like to get the downloads tab to go back to the way it was, before this most recent update. Now that I have the latest update of Firefox, it moved over to the right. The little hand won't budge it. And the download interface is different, now it is under something called 'library', I liked the old way much better - any way to restore it to that?

Can you clarify what you mean with ''downloads popup/tab''
Is this the pop-up that you see when finishing a download or do you mean the pop-up you see if you hover a link?
When a download is in progress then you see a download progress bar on the Navigation Toolbar instead of the Download Manager button and that button is highlighted once the download has finished to make you aware the their are new downloads.
You can view the new Download Manager in a tab by opening the about:downloads page and consider to open this page in a separate window.

I understand that when using Numbers/Pages - an up-arrow on a document means that the file is still to be uploaded to the cloud, what does a down arrow mean? It seems the document can't be accessed until the arrow clears.

I understand that when using Numbers/Pages - an up-arrow on a document means that the file is still to be uploaded to the cloud, what does a down arrow mean? It seems the document can't be accessed until the arrow clears.

I believe what it's supposed to mean is that some changes were made to the document on another device, and those changes were saved back to the cloud. Now you've opened iWork on a different device to access that document - it compares the document you've got locally with the one in the could, sees some recent changes and downloads them.
What gets me is why this sometimes happens even when I've not made any changes to a document from another device.

After the last update of Firefox, my toolbar menu became blank but the bookmarks are still available from a pulldown menu. I want the on the toolbar like they used to be. How do I recover this?

If nothing happens when you press the F11 key, check if you have the same problem in Safe Mode.

I notice that in the new update to Firefox if I have two bookmark folders with the same name Firefox will end up deleting one of them.

Both of these problems with the bookmarks started occurring after I installed the latest update to Firefox.
I frequently have bookmark folders of the same name under the older version of Firefox and it has never been a problem before. It is now, and I notice that after I've created two folders with the same name Firefox will end up deleting one of the folders, almost always the older of the two folders (the one created first, chronologically).
I have also noticed that with the new update Firefox will occasionally fail to open all bookmarks in Tabs if I've asked it to do so. I can simply close Firefox and reopen the program and it will work again, but I don't know why this bug is occuring in the first place.

You are using two IP address ranges.. which results in the printer being cut off from the other network..
Why do you have two networks?? It is always better in home situations to run one network.
If you have work setup with an enterprise level router you can setup routes between the two networks.. this is not possible on domestic level apple routers.

I have downloaded the new update for Firefox 3.6 and now cannot connect to the internet. I've checked my firewall and have uninstalled and reinstalled firefox, but nothing works.

After installing the new update for Firefox 3.6, no matter what I do, I cannot connect to the internet using Firefox. I can get on the internet using my other browsers (Google Chrome and Internet Explorer), so Firefox is the only one that doesn't work. I have already checked my firewall and have added and removed Firefox from my firewall to no avail. I've also already uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, but so far it hasn't helped.

I have already tried removing firefox from my firewall. Even when I do that, my firewall doesn't detect firefox and prompt me to add it. And when I manually add it, it still doesn't work anyways. I've already tried the link as well, but it has been unhelpful. :/
I'm not sure if it matters, but a few weeks before this, I did download Microsoft Security Essentials.

HT1222 The Safari update (Dec 3) is still listed on the Apple security updates page.

The Safari update (Dec 3) is still listed on the Apple security updates page, but is not actually available. How will we know when this issue is resolved if Apple does not keep this page current?

Actually that doesn't tell you what the packages are, it just says OS X Security Update as a single item.
It then offers a link for more information which brings us to this page:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1222
The page is very poorly designed. This is what I'm posting about.
I'm seeing Windows Vista updates, Apple TV, Leopard, Lion. Things from 2008.
It would be a trivial matter to instead link directly to the this:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5130
that's the actual thing being installed, that's what I want to see.
I mean they might as well just link here: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=Security+Update+2012-001
LOL, that didn't even work. Google search for the specific package results in:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1489
which links back to the HT1222 page which is the list of EVERYTHING.
> If you want more control, there is a unix softwareupdate utility you can use.
Not for these updates. I can update Dovecot or Apache, but these updates are for core Mac services and tweaks like this:
Apache disabled the 'empty fragment' countermeasure which prevented these attacks. This issue is addressed by providing a configuration parameter to control the countermeasure and enabling it by default.

Since the last update of Firefox I've a real problem. While Firefox is running or in use my Laptop total freezes. The resource tool stops and nothing works. I have to power off my laptop to get by this.

Your site is recommended by a site and after the latest update of firefox, I cannot use your site like I use to do.

the site farmtowngifts.com worked very well prior to the latest update of firefox and firefox is even recommended by this site. Now it is not working properly.

Firefox freezes when I load new pages into new tabs. This started a few weeks ago after I downloaded the latest update to firefox, currently running 7.0.1

After installing the latest update to Firefox a couple of weeks ago, loading new pages into new tabs takes a very very long time IF the page loads at all. I usually have to close the original tab to get the new tabs to load their pages. Sometimes I have to close all Firefox windows and start over to get the page I want to load.
This only started after downloading and installing this new update. I had no problem with new pages/tabs with previous versions.
I have rebooted, run full scans with Spyware Doctor, Malwarebytes and McAfee without solving the problem.
