Mac Firefox display problem

This problem is only on Firefox for Macintosh - but I'm not
sure what's
causing it, and it's difficult to troubleshoot without easy
access to a
Mac - so any help much appreciated.
On the Home page of the site, in the center of the page,
there's a
light-blue box consisting of a form with a table nested in
it. They are both
in turn nested in a table, and another table. (What can I say
- I have
nesting instincts :-)).
The screenshot I was sent shows the light-blue box shifted
over to the right
so that it overlaps the content to its right. Here's the
screenshot:

. Here's the site:

Anybody know what I can do to fix that?
Thanks VERY much in advance,

Wow, right you are. Let me mess with it - will let you know
how I do.

Mac Safari display problem

I created my site using a pc and my website works fine on all browsers except safari on mac. The problem is that at the bottom of my page ( About News Forum) The News and Forum go underneath About when this container should be right next to About tab.
My website www.robootica.com
Heres my code
<div id="left_column"><a href="../about.html" style="color:#999;">About</a></div>
<div id="column_container"><div id="right_column"><a href="../chat.html" style="color:#999;">Forum</a></div>
<div id="center_column"><a href="../news.html" style="color: #999;">News</a></div></div>
my CSS:
#left_column {
float: left;
width:350px;
font-family: "OCR A Std", "Orator Std";
color: #999;
padding-top: 10px;
text-align: center;
cursor: crosshair;
background-color: #000;
padding-bottom: 10px;
display:inline;
#column_container {
float:right;
width: 738px;
padding-top:10px;
cursor: crosshair;
background-color: #000;
padding-bottom:10px;
#right_column {
float:right;
width:350px;
font-family: "OCR A Std", "Orator Std";
color: #999;
text-align: center;
background-color: #000;
#center_column {
margin-left:10px;
width: 350px;
color: #999;
font-family: "OCR A Std", "Orator Std";
text-align: center;
background-color: #000;
float:right;

It doesnt look right on the latest version 5.0.2. My spry widget bar at the top is moved to the left when it suppose to be on the right, and the div container tag of News and Forum is moved under div About when it should be to the right (next to) the About div.

Firefox display problems

Hello all,
We're using Flash Paper 2 to make some extra documents
available in external HTML pages from a flash site.
These work fine in all browsers except for Firefox where only
the top half of the document is visible - it's all functional, but
there's some display problem
thanks for any ideas

I am having almost the same problem that Jon reports. I have
made a PDF using the FlashPaper 2 that came with Studio 8. When the
link to this PDF is clicked in MSIE 6 or NN 7.1, the PDF displays
normally. When I do the same in Firefox 1.5.0.6 the PDF never
finishes loading and never displays at all. Oddly when I click a
link to view PDFs created through other means, they display
normally in the Adobe Reader plug in for Firefox. So this appears
to be a problem that is unique to PDFs produced with FlashPaper 2
when the viewing is attempted in Firefox. Two of the three pieces
of software, FlashPaper and Reader, are Adobe products, so I hope
that someone at Adobe will take ownership of this problem and find
out what needs to be corrected.

Power Mac G4 Display Problem

I own a Power Mac G4 Digital Audio 733MHz model, and an Apple Flat Panel monitor.
The monitor connects using ADC. Sometimes when I boot my Power Mac the power light appears on the display, but the display screen does not turn on. Rebooting the Power Mac will make the display come back to life.
A while back someone in the Apple Forums suggested replacing the PRAM battery.
I tested the PRAM battery, and it is fine.
I opened up the Power Mac case, and see that the AGP card is properly seated.
What would most likely be the problem? Would it be the display, the video card, or the logic board?
Thanks!

Just an update, I tried a different LCD Display with a VGA connector and it works fine.
It must be the Apple Display.

Flash and IE7 & Firefox ~ Display PROBLEM!!!

Hi Everybody,
Hope some one can help:
Recently, in IE7 and Firefox, I noticed my Flash SWF files
which had black Bkgrnds [ya know, on the stage] didn't show as
"black" but as a white or "no" color.
Yesterday [11/28/07], Firefox did an update to version
2.0.0.10 and the problem was resolved, temporarily. IE7 [ver.
7.0.5730.11 w/no update versions to download].
Here is the URL:
http://www.bowzerbird.com/
This is my home page: the bkgrnd of the SWF should be a dark
blue but is white[ish?]
http://www.bowzerbird.com/index2.html
[The SWF on this page should have a black bkgrnd]
I just checked in Firefox, and it's not right either. Just a
few moments ago [yesterday], it was perfect and now, say 10 minutes
later, the bkgrnds are "weird." I think I'm in the Twilight Zone.
I created several SWF's for my site in Flash versions
5-MX2004. Sorry I'm still behind the times. Can't afford the
upgrade right now.
PLEASE HELP ME!! WHAH!!!
Does ANYONE know what is going on?
PS ... Just tried an experiment! From Dreamweaver, I opened the
HTML files in IE7 and Firefox, AND the pages display correctly!
From my hard drive displayed from Dreamweaver in the browsers, the
SWF files look perfect. So, why when they are viewed from the web
[cable connected], do they display a light background color instead
of the intended black background color???
Ellen

Hi Robert,
Thanks but still have a question: Why up until just say, two
weeks ago [that's when I checked my web site, approx.] did the
Flash SWF files display correctly: ie. with the black background
and now display with a "white" or no background?
Also, like I said in the previous post, why when I "preview
in browser" from Dreamweaver does the SWF file preview correctly
with the black bkgrnd BUT when viewed on the Net when I'm
connected, does it display incorrectly??
Are the updated browsers [IE7 & Firefox] problematic?
Could it be something in the "internet options" that needs to be
corrected?
Also, what did you mean by: "One of the best ways to put
Flash on a web page is SWFObject. You can download the free
JavaScript library for SWFObject here:"
What is "SFWObject" and what does it do? Why did my Flash SWF
files display fine just two weeks ago and not today.
PLEASE HELP! I just don't get it and I thought I was soooo
computer savy!! Oh, BTW, when I created the SWF files originally,
in Flash I simply set the bkgrnd for the stage to be black:
#000000!!
Ellen

Strange Firefox Display problem

I don't understand why one of my pages isn't displaying properly in Firefox. You'll notice that the main photo window is cut off. It's fine in all other browsers. I'm stumped - any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

Mac mini display problems

My Mac mini (bought in early 2011) has recently started having sync problems with my viewsonic monitor. It used to work fine. Have upgraded to mountain lion and mavericks hoping to solve the problem but it persists. I get snow and then blank screen. This happens randomly I never know when the screen is going to go white on me.

What connection configuration are you using...?
HDMI to HDMI
HDMI to DVI
Mini DisplayPort to HDMI
Mini DisplayPort to DVI
Mini DisplayPort to VGA
Have to tried resetting the NVRAM...? see > About NVRAM and PRAM
1. Shut down the computer.
2. Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
3. Turn on the computer.
4. Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
5. Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
6. Release the keys.

Please help me! - really weird mac mini display problem.

Ok this is just too WEIRD.
i have a brand new 1.42ghz mini (512mb ram and wireless) with a sony SDM-HS75 LCD. This is an analogue LCD and im using the supplied apple VGA adaptor.
before i continue i will say that i have hooked up the lcd to numerous other macs and the screen and cable are fine. i have no dimmer switches on my lighting, i have no objects placed on the mini (like a cell phone etc)
when i first set up my mini the video output was murky and grey and noisy across the screen. Then i discovered the setup utility on the CD that came with the sony screen. i ran it (it displays a grid calibration thing) and discovered the "phase" adjustment on the sony's on screen menu. i managed to adjust out the fuziness and noise and the image quality was then perfect.
heres where it gets weird. the point at which the monitor is in phase with the video signal shifts around all the time! i mean - i get the phase set at say 43 out of 100 on the adjustment scale and the next time i restart i need to shift it to 73 to get rid of the blur and the noise on the display.
Also, the using airport affects the display and knocks it out of phase - i dont use wireless but if i activate it i can see a difference instantly.
this is really strange and i cant see a solution.

Is this a new-ish LCD? Many newer LCDs will have an auto adjust option or button to set the phase and fine tuning for you so you don't have to do it yourself.

Can Mozilla Firefox 35.0.1 fix display problem on my Mac ?

Hi, I'm a photographer not a web designer so excuse my lack of knowledge ... but i have a problem with Firefox displaying my website ... www.rodedwards.com.
I've just installed Wordpress on my server and installed a custom theme for my photography portfolio.
The website displays amazingly well with Chrome and Safari, but it has display errors with Firefox on Mac. The scrolling thumbnails in the galleries seem to download from top to bottom after viewing about twenty images (and reload again when scrolling back). This is the Youtube link to the problem http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVEG7oqwPqg .
I've tried Hard Refresh but didn't work so i tried Firefox / Help / Restart With Add-Ons Disabled / Start In safe Mode and it then displays great. I'm guessing that this suggests there is a bug in Firefox or the add-ons since i updated to the most recent version of Firefox (now 35.0.1).
Can this be fixed now it's been noted ?
You advice would be much appreciated ... Thanks :)
Ps - It's not an image size problem as I've installed a similar copy at www.rodedwardsphoto.co.uk with smaller images and i still get same problem.

Mac Display problems

Hi,
We are creating an app and having some display problems that
only seems to be affecting OSX browsers. We have a custom component
that is based on a canvas. We dynamically add several of these
components to other display components at runtime ( through
actionscript by calling addChild usually ). Everything displays
fine on Windows browsers (Firefox, IE, Safari) but when loading it
in firefox or safari on osx, all we see is a blank space where the
component should be visible. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

I'm not sure that I can send a link, corporate web app and
all...
but it's very puzzling, I don't believe it is due to render
times, reports say it just never displays. I might have to try and
track down a mac development machine for a few days of testing as I
don't have a mac locally and makes it a real pain in the neck to
debug since I don't even know what I'm looking for. I thought I
would post here and see if anyone else has ever encountered
anything even remotely similar.
Thanks

On my mac firefox 4 and 3 i can't simply even open it, it just crashes and crashes, although if i try to open it in another acount yes it opens, i'ts like my account has a problem with firefox (tryed cleaning it all with appzaper, but nothing)))

Hello,
I have an iMac osX snow leopard (newest version) and strangely since some months, strangely when i tryed to open firefox it started crashing, firefox 3 and firefox 4 beta, i open them and in 5 seconds they crash.
Strangely enough on another account on my mac firefox WORKS perfectly, and it seems it's only crashing on my account, i even used cleanmymac and appzaper to clean totaly firefox files and re install it.
Please help me i can't stand chrome going so slow with 10 tabs

Thanks Sig for getting back to me. I really do appreciate it! But I'm not sure how erasing my drive is going to help. And besides, my problem is that I can't even boot to my original Tiger install DVDs anymore. I'm unable to execute any kind of boot-level command -- including holding down "c" key to boot from the drive, holding "T" key to go into Target Disk Mode or holding down "option" in order to bring up my bootable partitions!
Holding down any of these keys after the boot chime simply causes the screen to go black and then hang. The DVD drive will show it's being read from but nothing ever comes up.
Since I can't boot to my install DVD, there is no way for me to access the Disk Utility to erase my hard drive. Do you see the problem?
I am able to boot to my Windows 7 DVD, since I was able to install that to my old Tiger Partition, but I don't see how using my Windows install DVD would help me to re-install OS X.
I need to figure out why none of my boot-level opterations are available. If I was able to boot to my original Tiger discs (or any OS X DVD) than my problem would be solved, but I can't do that!
Any other ideas? Thanks in advance! --e

Display Problem with my Mac Pro and LG Flatron Wide Monitor in Mountain Lion

After upgrading to Mountain Lion, my Mac Pro has display problems with my LG Flatron display. The image is displayed with a black bar on the right and on the bottom. And the left side of the content is not visible. I tried every resolution available in the Display System Preferences, they are different in terms of how big the black bars are, and what part is not visible, but none of them are correct. I held down the option key to try to detect displays or switch to resolutions that are not normally available. When I restart the image is lined up with the display, but if the display ever goes to sleep or gets turned off, the image reverts to being off center, and the only way I can get it back is to restart... The interesting thing is that this monitor works fine with the same machine if I reboot using BootCamp into Windows 7. The Monitor also works fine, connecting the same connector to a Mac Mini, although that mac mini is running 10.6 and not Mountain Lion. I've reset the SMC and restarted countless times, I don't see any other levers to pull or things to try...

That card is for a PC it may not give you Startup and Option-Boot screens.
The 7950 "Mac Edition" card has a very distinctive look:

Browser display problem in firefox

After reinstall Vibe 3.3 to new server. Browser display problem in firefox. Last column only display half in the table. But IE is display fine. Any suggestion?

Then you could try the workaround mentioned in comment 6: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=786587#c6
According to the bug report it was found in 3.3, so either they had this problem before or they used an older version firefox than 16 prior to the server migration.

Older intel mac display problems (x1600)

My mom has an intel imac (the version before the black/aluminum kind) and it had very minor display issues with Tiger (very infrequent horizontal lines). They were all resolved with further point releases of Tiger.
After upgrading to Leopard she has had numerous problems, all revolving around frequent and numerous horizontal lines. They sometimes get so bad that the current window is almost completely obscured.
Here is a flickr set of images that show the problem and the display specs. I know that was happening to users with newer imacs and x1900s, is this happening to other x1600 users?
Any ideas on what is going on? I told her to call apple, but her warranty has run out and she feels uncomfortable calling because she is not a technical person (exactly why I told her to get a mac—I have egg on my face now). Should she downgrade? Can this be a hardware problem?

Hi everyone, i have bought an iMac 20 with a core 2 duo 1 GB ram and an ATI x1600 (a white one, because the screen quality is better than the new iMac 20 alu)
and i've some display problems. First i was on Tiger and i didn't noticed any problems but as leopard came out i rapidly upgraded to it and then came problems with the display.
To make short, the lower part of my screen is lagging anormaly. When i drag a window or even the dock's animations are slower. And it doesn't occur on the upper part of my screen, windows can be dragged smoothly, there is no lag even if the CPU is working at 100% (like on every normal mac...).
I've noticed there is a little bump when i'm dragging a windows from the top to the bottom of the screen, it's like the window enter another area.
I've of course checked a lot of boards on the www, so i've tried a lot of things, my card ATI X1600 128mo PCIe is fully working with core image and quartz extreme.
Some people said to wait that spotlight finished to index, but it's done and the problems are still there.
Time machine is off
I don't use coverflow and i've tried it, it doesn't change anything.
I've also re-installed Tiger and, wo-ow the problem is still there, especially when all is up to date.
It seems that, the problem come from the last firmware update, i don't know if this firmware update was done for improving compatibility with bootcamp or leopard but for me it has added this strange display behavior.
I've also tried to turn off quartz extreme, and it's even worst, worst on the lower part again but no changes on the upper, everything run smoothly.
As i didn't noticed it when i used my mac for the first days (on Tiger and without the firmware update) and on windows with bootcamp there is still no display problems at all, i keep thinking it's not an hardware problem but a software (firmware, display on Mac osX) problem.
It should be solved by a new firmware or Mac os upgrade until then i have to do with it.
By the way, does anyone knows if there's a way for downgrading the gpu firmware ? (when i try, it say that i didn't need it), it's the only thing that i havent tried.
Thanks in advance, and i beg your pardon for my pittyfull frenglish :s
