Live Earth Concert - Mac users cant view?

Hi all ---
today is Live Earth Day. the concerts are streamed to the world by MSN.
although it says;
"...THE CONCERT IS AVAILABLE FOR MOST INTERNET BROWSERS,
BUT FOR THE BEST VIEWING EXPERIENCE, USE INTERNET EXPLORER..."
i cant view it on safari, firefox, netscape, or my old internet explorer. new I.E. isnt available for mac...as far as i remember. hmm. anyone have a workaround or alt. link to see this concert online?
cheers,
J.

Hi John, it runs fine for me on Safari beta 3.0.2 and Firefox 2.0. Do you have the Flip4Mac plug-in? it converts wmv and avi to Quicktime.

Mac users cant access website

When trying to connect to a certain website my company is hosting Mac users are unable to connect to the site when the firewall is turned on. PC's and BSD does not seem to be affected. We are using win 2k3 server and the standard windows firewall which has TCP-80, 8080 and 443 open. Do Macs use another port that other platforms do not for connecting to websites? If so does anybody know what that port would be as I have had no luck finding out and blocking all macs from our sites is not sonmething I wish to do.

When I turn on the firewall I get people screaming at me that they can't get on the site, only mac's no pc's. Its not only one server either there are 3 and all have the same issue. I have tried the site with my laptop that has freeBSD as well as my desktop with isnt a Mac and have no problms but the second I turn on that firewall, BAM emails galore from Mac users.
I have tried opening the UPD ports on 80,443 and 8080 thinking that may help but that didnt work either. Theres some port I need to open that only Macs use and I have no idea what it may be.
This is one of our old sites:www.eliercosmetic.com I am going to turn the firewall on and see what happens if somebody could give it a try.

PC users cant view my site....

I am VERY new to iweb. I just finished my first site and published it. I can see it perfectly on my computer. When I told my family and friends (pc users) to check it out they said all they see is the godadddy.com site saying a site is being made... How do I fix this? Or does it have nothing to do with them being on a PC?? Help! Thanks!

Check with GoDaddy tech support to see if your domain name has been forwarded correctly to your site.
PC users should reach your site if all is well.
Post the URL if you need more help here.

When i double click on Mac HD the view has changed and my user name is no longer listed on the left. How can I reset this

When i double click on Mac HD the view has changed and my user name is no longer listed on the left. How can I reset this?

Do a factory reset .. nothing will be deleted from your backups and you will be able to get access to them again.
The Factory Reset Gen1-4.
Unplug your TC. Hold in reset. and power the TC back on.. without releasing reset for about 10sec. When the status light flashes rapidly; release it.
Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel.. add no more pressure after that.
TC will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations.
No files are deleted on the hard disk.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.

I cannot get the Quicktime plugin to update from v7.7.3 to the CURRENT 7.6.6 . My plugins view tells me I'm at risk and need to update but try as I might, it won't take. I consider myself and above average Mac User. Please advise. Thank you

for some inexplicable reason, I cannot get the Quicktime plugin to update from v7.7.3 to the CURRENT 7.6.6 .

Someone recently noted a problem staying logged on the Huffington Post since it became connected with AOL. The workaround for that is to change your connection setting here:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > Network
Click the "Settings" button and choose either "No Proxy" or "Use System Settings" option, and OK the change.
Not sure whether Washington Post could be affected by that same setting.
In reviewing your extensions, I'm puzzled that you have both DoNotTrackMe and SavvyConnect. The first one seems to aggressively block certain communications with websites (potentially affecting functionality) while the second one seems to report on your browsing habits (they better pay well is all I can say). Have you tried disabling both of those to see whether that has any effect?

HI - new mac user. When trying to view clips on certain sites i receive the following text: "missing plug in" can anyone assist?

HI - new mac user here
When trying to view certain sites i receive the following text: "missing plug in" can anyone assist?
I think it is related to viewing video or clips.....

Well, if you're using Chrome, or Firefox go here this should also work with Safari. It will let you know if Flash is already installed in your browser. If your using Chrome it should have been intergrated. Were you able to get Flash installed so you can view video clips? Post back to let us know. Hope this helps. Also install Perian. See if that helps as well.

I migrated a user from another mac and cant get any updates to install!

Hi
I migrated a user from another mac and cant get any updates to install, for example it says iPhoto is intalled but its not, i never copied it from the older imac, and i cant download it to this one now
any help appreciated

Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
Isolating an issue by using another user account
If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account. Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

Hi, I'm a new Mac user and I want 10.8.2 but i can't get that unless I have i have 10.8.1 and I cant get that unless I have 10.8. Now I was wondering if anyone could provide me with a link that would allow me to download this version?

Again, that's not a problem - if you purchase Mountain Lion through the App Store, it's been updated to 10.8.2 - and when there are other updates available, you can just download and install them as well.
Just go to the App Store and purchase and install ML. Then run Software Update (Apple menu) to see if there are any updates available for your machine. I keep my System Preferences>Software Update prefs set to check automatically -
Some people would rather check manually. No big deal, just buy it and install it.

Help! people cant view site

Hi, I made a site using iWeb a couple months ago and everything was fine. Last week I updated the site and announced it to a bunch of friends and about 80% could not get in or view the site. Most are on a pc, but some still were able to view it ok even on a pc. I made sure to let everyone know to capatilize the "W" in iWeb, and even told them to just copy and past the address or use our link. The email was sent using aol, not sure if that makes a difference. Please help, we use the site to update baby and family pics and now most of our friends cant view it. The site is web.mac.com/baariandolivia. username is pauls and password is macomb, no caps in either. Thanks for any help

I was able to view it after entering user/password.
You mentioned you emphasized "W" for iWeb, maybe it's just the url you sent.
I suggest you send them the exact url you noted here and just for the sake of it include the http://xxxxxxx
Now I know there may be some technicality with sending urls in some instances to PC's but if the simply copy paste they should be fine.
While I'm at it, you may want to suggest all your PC friend download firefox and use that instead of IE.

I cant view the image or take a snap shot in my i phone 5s

I cant view the image when camera is on

Use the "Camera" app to make images.
Use "Photos" to view or organize them.
For more info or help with other apps, see your iPhone iOS 8.1 User Guide or see it here on the internet.

New mac user - organising photos

hello
I am a new mac user comingfrom Windows
In windows i organised my photos into folders such asholidays, cars etc. Within a folder i would then have other folders i.e usa,oz. How can i do something simular in iphoto, I cant seem to put an albumwithin an album
thanks
Dave

Albums are individual items and not dynamically linked to any event or events that they were created from. If you want an album that is dynamically linked to one or more events create a smart album with the criteria "Event is XXXX". Then any photo added to that event will show up in the smart album.
To add a keyword to a photos select the photos and type Command+A to bring up the keyword pane:
Click to view full size
Then click on an existing keyword button to add it to the photo. The button will turn blue when it's been assigned to the photo. If you want to create a new keyword click on the Edit Keywords button.
There is no print screen button. You'll need to take a screenshot of the screen. Open the utility named Grab and use the Capture menu to make your selection. There are system wide key combinations that you can use to make a screenshot, full or partial. Open you System/Keyboard/Keyboard Shortcuts pane, click on Screenshots and get the keystroke you need for a full screen or partial screen capture.

Cant view video from CNN or MSN

I've downloaded the correct software ect , but still cant view videos .help !! using ibookG4

paul, Welcome to the discussion area!
Since this is a software issue, you probably want to visit the Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger discussion area.
BTW, this area is for discussing the G3 clamshell iBook. Since you have an iBook G4 if you have iBook G4 specific questions, you will want to visit the iBook > iBook G4 discussion area so that other users of the iBook G4 can see your question.

Mac User Cannot Use Form Created in Windows Acrobat 9.0 Pro

I have created a form and emailed it to a Mac user. He does not know what version of Acrobat he has or even if he is using a full version of Acrobat or Acrobat Reader (I tried to walk him through to check his version, but he could not find it).
He is using a laptop that is about 5 years old.
Anyway....I created this form in Acrobat 9.0 Pro. It works great for me...when I type in the fields, the text falls perfectly on the lines; the autocalculate works perfectly, and the RESET button works perfectly. When he opens the file, the text shows all below the lines, the autocalculate does not work at all, and neither does the RESET button. He sent it to another person, and they too could not use the form.
I have enabled the PDF so it can be filled out by Reader users and it is not in PDF/A mode, but it still is not working for him. I went to the library where they have a Mac and I was able to open it through Acrobat Reader 9 and again, I was able to fill the form out and it worked perfectly for me.
Would anyone be available (with a Mac) through email so I could send you the file to see if any Acrobat pros might be able to tell me what is wrong with it? I am absolutely frustrated to the points of tears over this. If you do not want to place your email here, I will give you mine so you can email me first ([email protected]); just let me know here that you are emailing me so I know to check email rather than check here.
Thank you!
Laura

He's probably not using either Acrobat or Reader. The Mac comes with a built-in PDF viewer named Preview and it has limited support for PDF forms. It even corrupts them when it saves. It should definitely be avoided. Fortunately Reader is freely available, you just have to get him to install it.
