MP3 upload fails from Firefox from Mac on podcast weblog; Safari, IE OK

Hello --
We're running a podcast weblog on Tiger (10.4.7) server. It's been running well for a year, but recently (after running software update) MP3 uploads from Firefox 1.5 or 2.0.0.1 or other Mozilla browsers on Mac OS X will not attach. The text of the post is loaded, but the attachment does not go through. MP3s are fine when attached from Safari, or from IE or Firefox on Win.
I've verified that Blojsom's Plugin-admin-upload.properties allows audio/x-mpeg,audio/mpeg3,audio/x-mpeg3,audio/x-mpeg-url,audio/mpeg-url,audio/mp 3, audio/mpeg, audio/x-m4a, audio/m4b, application/pdf
Oddly, I can upload a pdf fine as a "podcast" attachment from Firefox on Mac, so it's not a general problem with attachments.
I've also confirmed that mpeg defined as a mime type in /Library/Tomcat/Blojsom_root/webapps/root/WEB-INF/web.xml, which makes sense since MP3s can be added from Safari, etc.
Is there something different about the way the Mac version of Firefox sends MIME info to the server? Does anyone have suggestions for what might be going on and how to fix it?
Thank you.
Mac OS X (10.4.7)

OK, finally worked this out. I saw in the blojsom logs that the mime type mpg was failing to be recognized. I added audio/mpg to the plugin-admin-upload.properties file and now Firefox is working again from the Mac.

I have an iPad and would like to replicate my Bookmarks list from Firefox for MAC to my iPad Safari.app; can this be done automatically?

I have a MacBook Pro running OS X 10.5.7, and an iPad 2 running iOS 6.1.3.
On the MAC, I have Firefox for MAC v 19.0.2 and Safari 6.0.3
On the iPad, I have only Safari for iPad. I always use Firefox as my browser for the MacBook, but there is no Firefox app for the iPad.
My Safari bookmarks automatically update from the MacBook to the iPad, but not from Firefox to the iPad. Is it possible for the automatic update to be made from Firefox instead of Safari to the iPad Safari.app? If not, is there an easy way on the MacBook to keep the Safari bookmarks up to date with the Firefox bookmarks, so that the iPad shares my Firefox bookmarks?
If not possible now, are you planning to make this possible for MAC users who also have an iPad?

Can't print from Firefox using Mac G5, 10.5.8, Power PC processors

Problem developed after update from Microsoft. I downloaded an older version of Firefox (3.6.23), but problem persists. When I attempt to print a page, the printer responds and runs paper, but it is blank.

If by chance it's really the trial beta V3, it won't install on PPC Macs.
If it's 2.5, something else, possibly had it been installed on that machine before?
I'd re-download, try again.

How can page margins be changed when printing from Firefox for Mac OS X? (This is easy to do on the Windows version.)

Page margins can be adjusted from the page setup menu in the Windows version of Firefox, but there does not appear to be an equivalent menu in the Mac version.

Hi onlyhuman2-
I'm not familiar with the printing options using Windows. I've found this article on editing print options for a Mac: [[Printing a web page]]
That shows you how to shrink the page, and to edit page headers and footers. I'm hoping that covers the margins you were hoping to change.
Good luck!

How can page margins be changed when printing from Firefox for Mac OS X?

This has been asked in the past with the thread closed even though the asker got no answer. I have the same problem so I am asking again....
How does one set the margin sizes on Firefox on the Mac?

Did not notice that you are using a Mac, otherwise, I would not have replied.
<s>It appears that page margins for OSX are set at the operating system level.</s>

File upload Fails in FireFox on SunRays

We can't get File upload to work with a Browser Running under SunRays on FireFox
We have finally identified the http problem (http 417) which is causing the IO flash error.
We tried this on FireFox 3.0 as well as FireFox 3.5.3 both with the same results. Also, I doubt if this is a browser issue because uploading files to the same servlet from a test JSP page works fine. Whatever happens, happens between flash player and the browser.
After using a simple MXML file (attached below) to test the file upload functionality on different operating systems we have discovered that it brakes with an unusual error when tested on Solaris.
We put sniffers and clearly noticed the difference in the headers generated by Flash 10 in different OS environments.
As you can see from the examples below, the later version (the one running on Solaris) has an extra "Expect:" in the header which we believe is responsible for the HTTP 417 error (which, in its turn, is responsible for 2038 thrown by flex)
Here is a header generated from a functional system: POST /iehs_core_document/FileUploadServlet HTTP/1.1
Host: dev01.intelligentehs.com:9086
Accept: */*
User-Agent: Shockwave Flash
Connection: Keep-Alive
Cache-Control: no-cache
Content-Length: 755
Expect: 100-continue
Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=----------------------------e6d2f5d2c945
And here is a header generated from OpenSolaris 11 2009.06
POST /iehs_core_document/FileUploadServlet HTTP/1.1
Host: dev01.intelligentehs.com:9086
Accept: */*
User-Agent: Shockwave Flash
Connection: Keep-Alive
Cache-Control: no-cache
Expect:
Content-Length: 653
Expect: 100-continue
Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=----------------------------b64e06f786e4

Does anyone deploy to SunRay virtual clients?
We have a customer who has a ton of them around the world and need to run our Flex based application but File Upload does not work at all... so anyone with any information/ideas on a fix or work around this issue, we would love to hear from you.
Thanks if advance,
Anthony

How do I safely uninstall Genieo from FireFox from Laptop on OS 10.6.8?

April 7 I wanted to download a free book from a Google search (Concluding Unscientific Postscript by Soren Kierkegaard) in PDF format, in following the prompts I wound up with a homepage called Genieo. It has a clickable "Remove Genieo" but requested your Mac password to proceed. Alarmed, I backed out at that point! I turned off wi-fi and was able to delete it from my Applications folder, and do a secure empty trash, but it continues to exist and come up as my browser home page. I don't use it, but want to get rid of it. THANKS!

Hello MitchHarned, check if the instruction in the next article is helpful :

The icon moves on my toolbar and bookmarks and all are gone on that version. When I try to open Firefox from my email, it tells me I don't have the latest version, even though I've downloaded it about three times in the last two days. What's the deal?

First I notice your icon was gone so I figured I'd moved it by mistake. I put it back, but most of my bookmarks were gone. I then noticed I had two icons, one on right side one on left of my Mac. Tried to download new version. Didn't work, went to preview? Weird. Tried the version that's for Yahoo. That seemed to work, my bookmarks were back, but today it says that's an old version and I must update if I want to open something from Firefox from my email. So I did and once again I had two icons on page. It has done this a couple times. So I'm going in circles. I've done nothing new to my less than 3-year-old iMac and have never had this problem or anything remotely like it before.

Did you manage to get it working mine disappeared after I while I managed to download it but now my laptop/iTunes won't recognise my iPhone!

Why is it that i cannot recieve an email from Firefox

I needed a password reset. Firefox sent. I did not receive. Did this 3 more times. No email. Tested my email. It works.

Your computer might be blocking from Firefox from sending emails to you. Look in all the folders that mail could be placed, like the trash or spam, and see if it was put there.

Printing from Firefox - Print defaults to LANDSCAPE. How to change to PORTRAIT? (Mac OS 10.8)

Hello all. Printer type: HP Laserjet Pro CP-1525nw
Printer Model: CE-875AOS: Mac OS 10.8.3Browser: Firefox v 20.0 When I print from Word or Excel, all is OK.However, when I print from Firefox, any website (example):http://www.gentrustwm.com/wp-content/uploads/GenTrust-Perspectives-April-2013.pdf It prints ONLY in Landscape mode. This truncates pages.I want to change the default setting to Portrait for all printing from Firefox and from Adobe PDF.I can't find a way to change the setting to PORTRAIT. After Command/P, I see PRESETS/SHOW PRESETS/DEFAULT SETTINGS... this shows Orientation=Landscape. However, can't find the way to change the default. Please advise how to do this?

I have the same problem. All of the sudden Firefox reverted to landscape default. We have 3 HP printers and it does it on all printers It's not Yahoo or Gmail, it's everything we print in Firefox Any help would be appreciated

Why am I unable to update from firefox 4.0.1 on mac osX 10.6.8 when my Mac meets the requirements?

I have a Mac OSX (10.6.8) with an 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7 Processor, 16GB 1067 MHz DDR3 memory and 2TB hard drive.
Yet I am unable to upgrade from FireFox version 4.0.1
I can no longer access my YouTube account, and other websites, because I am told the FireFox version I am running is not compatible.
Why am I unable to upgrade to the latest version of FireFox?
Do you just not want Mac owners to run your browser? It seems this is the case as this has been an ongoing issue that should have been resolved already.

Firefox 4 versions and later '''do not run on a PowerPC Mac''' and require at least OS X 10.5 and '''an Intel Mac'''.

1. Download a new copy of the Firefox program(3.6.27) from the above link
2. Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install.
3. Install the new version that you have downloaded(3.6.27).

It turns out that the problem had to do with network accounts, even though it was not clear at first. Redirecting the program to the local machine's cache with a network home redirector script fixed the issue. Thanks anyway.

Can I use Synch to migrate (import) settings and preferences and history etc. from Firefox 4.0.1 on a PC to a new Mac running Snow Leopard, and if so, how?

I love Firefox and have relied on it for years. But I'm now planning to move from PC to Mac and would like to keep as much of my Firefox personalization and customization as possible. I have never needed to use the Synch feature before, and I cannot find reliable instructions telling me how to do it in these circumstances. Does anyone have any helpful suggestions? Thanks very much.

Ubuntu may have moved those three button as well to that control bar.
