My safari looks different

When I used to open up the new tab button, it would look round and you clicked on site that you wanted! Also when you opened tabs it would open and you could flick through the pages - hope that sort of makes sense. Now the new tab looks flat and the bookmarks opens up down the side!! I have tried to google the problem and ask on apple support to no avail, please help me!!

Some pictures so you can see first picture is what it used to look like and second is what it looks like now!
What it looks like now -
Thank you for helping. xx

My mac safari looks different and had pop ups? Virus like...

I have a Mac Air 13".
I just updated my mac a few days ago. (I'm no sure where to find my latest update at either?)
When I bring up my safari the page of my top sites doesn't come up. And my preferred search is google....but it comes up as some white screen with some other name in the url and pretends as if it is google...then while moving through other sites I get all the pop up ads and "keep your mac clean", so and so sites. I need some help quickly before I leave for school!

Download this adware removal tool from this link: http://www.thesafemac.com/art/
It should take care of the ads
Then search "how to make google your default search engine" on safari, It will show you the steps. They're easy to follow.

Quicktime video looks different in Firefox and Safari, is there a fix?

My full problem is described in this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4451761
but to keep it simple, my immediate issue is that Safari and Firefox are displaying my video differently. Firefox appears darker and Safari appears brighter. With my monitor set to a gamma of 1.8 (default for OS X) Firefox looks perfect and Safari looks washed out, and with my monitor set to 2.2 (Windows default and all-together better looking) Firefox is too dark and Safari is perfect.
All I want to know is WHY they look different and how to fix this.

Thanks for your response. While this may work with audio and video originating from your own computer it doesn't seem to effect audio and video viewed from the Firefox 5.01 browser which uses a QuickTime plugin. Audio and Video viewed from Safari and Firefox 3.6.19 work fine which leads me to believe the QT plugin and Firefox 5 browser are not working correctly.

Web banner looks different in Safari

I replaced a Web banner on a site I do work for and it looks different in Safari then in FireFox and IE.
The banner blends in to the background in the other browsers but the color appears "off" in Safarai.
Is there anything I can do to fix this? I have never had this problem before.
Here is the site: http://www.ehealthinnovation.org (the banner is at the top).
Thanks.

I'm no expert on this by any means (so anyone out there please correct me if wrong) but I think it's to do with the color profile attached (or lack of) to the jpg used in the banner.
This post by -g has some more information that might be useful.
If all else fails, try changing the image to be a gif instead.

Chrome v safari; Apple discussion look different

My Chrome version of the Apple Discussion look different to Safari ??
The headers for the discussion have vanished ?

There seems to be an ongoing issue with the topics not showing. Try restarting the browser, or clearing your browser caches and trying again.

Why does my site look different in chrome, safari and explorer?

Hi,
My site looks ok in Firefox but it looks different in chrome, safari and explorer...
I have already tried to clean the cache and delete cookies, what I have to do?
Thanks for helping!
Livia

Hi Livia
I have checked the file and can see that you have used a slideshow for browser background , the page fill is the hero image where the thumbnails are disabled.
If you remove the slideshow then the issue is resolved as the red bar in top and white bar at bottom comes fine with all browsers.
Please remove the slideshow from page background and use the same image as browser fill which will fix the issue.
Thanks,
Sanjit

Color Looks Different in Aperture Viewer Compared to Full Screen

The color in my photos looks different depending on how I view them. In Aperture's Viewer and in Photoshop Elements 6, it looks what I consider to be normal. In Aperture's Full Screen view, and in other applications such as Preview and Safari, the colors look super-saturated: much more vibrant than in real life.
The photos were imported into Aperture as JPEGs, directly from my camera. Previews are turned off in Aperture, and I have it set to export using sRGB. I'm using an external Dell display that's been calibrated with Spyder2 Express. Turning on Onscreen Proofing in Aperture (and trying different profiles) doesn't seem to change the display in the Viewer at all.
How can I make the color in the Viewer match the color in other applications? It's hard to edit when I can't accurately see what I'm doing.

Thanks for the quick and helpful reply! I didn't know there was such a thing as a default display, but after setting that to the external the photos look good again.
I guess I wasn't using the right search terms, but after reading your reply I was able to find this huge thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1394928&start=0&tstart=0
It seems to me that this is an OS bug, because the images were displaying incorrectly in Preview, Safari, etc. Each display has been calibrated and has a ColorSync profile, and the OS knows which display the window is on, so it should be able to figure out which profile to use.

My website looks different in internet explorer.

Greetings and thanks in advance for great service that we provide
I created a website in iweb www.webworldpr.com in Firefox looks good in Internet Explorer looks different. I can do. I would like to know is web site maestro can solve this problem.

The iWeb for Musicians website is optimized with Web SIte Maestro and appears to work OK in IE 7 & 8. If I look at it using Safari User Agent the background image drops out etc.
The latest version of WebCrusher has this....
"iWeb websites are known for their incompatibility with Internet Explorer. We tested hundreds of iWeb sites and came up with a step by step guide to making your iWeb site work with Internet Explorerand built this functionality into WebCrusher."
I do have WebCrusher but I haven't tested this feature as I don't have a PC running WIndows anymore.
The only way I can think that I could help you out here is if you send me a copy of a Domain file or the folder of published files and I'll run it through the app to see if it fixes your problem before you have to think about buying it.

Safari looks odd after upgrading to snow leopard

As the title said, I just installed snow leopard I received today. Safari looks really odd (see the screenshot below. The toolbar and bookmarks bar have different colors). I had an unofficial theme installed on leopard. I didn't have it uninstalled before upgrading. Dose it account for this?? Anybody have idea about how to fix this? Thanks.
You can see the picture here:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/41947024@N06/3865661667/

The file you need to locate and remove is found here:
"~/Preferences/.GlobalPreferences.plist"
I forgot to look inside it before I deleted it, but I can't imagine you're going to have any trouble after removing it.
For anyone who doesn't know how to remove this, you can pop open Terminal.app and paste the following command, which will put the file on your desktop for you to decide what to do with it. Then re-launch Safari.
"mv ~/Preferences/.GlobalPreferences.plist ~/Desktop/GlobalPreferences.plist"

HELP! Please :) my website looks different in different browsers. Link boxes are showing in IE!!

Please help me! I'm pretty new to web design. Built this website from scratch - designed in photoshop and put together in dreamweaver. I launched the site and it looks great in safari, but had a friend look at it with explorer and the blue link boxes (the one that lets you know you have something linked in dreamweaver) are showing up on the interent explorer browser and I can only assume there are issues in other browsers as well. Please help if you can. Here is a link to my website:   www.shandryntrumble.com Thanks

Thanks for your help!Should I create an external style sheet? I'm still unsure of where and what to put in the document. Where are the CSS tags? And what exactly do I place in them? Sorry, I'm so new to this. Thanks for your patience.

Bad information. You don't need a class for this. Simply add the following CSS code to your style sheet. An external style sheet is preferred but it if you don't have one yet, add this code to the CSS inside the tags of your HTML document. /*remove borders from all linked images*/a img    Nancy O.

Quicktime movie looks different in different browsers. Is there a fix?

I have an H.264 Quicktime movie (and will be making versions with the Sorenson Video 3 codec, WMV compatible files, and FLV as well), and it looks the way I want it to look in Firefox for Mac and Firefox for Vista. In Safari and Internet Explorer, the blacks are washed out and it looks less saturated (though this is probably due to the image being washed out).
Is there anything I can do? I know Safari reads color profiles now, but I don't know how to add that to a Quicktime movie, and that wouldn't fix the problem with IE (or, curiously, Firefox on XP). If I drop the blacks enough to make it look good in Safari and IE, it will be too dark for Firefox users. Firefox appears to be the one displaying it "properly" (how it looks in FCP and the stand-alone Quicktime player).

It is indeed tricky. I've spent a lot of time over the last few months trying to figure it all out and still can't wrap my head around it all. That's due in large part because there's a lot of misinformation out there.
Thanks for the article. It's interesting because I too set my monitor to 2.2 gamma (sRGB) but for the purpose of working on this project had reverted it to 1.8 (Cinema Display default), and it's been there for a long time now. It is interesting, but it didn't solve my problem.
My problem is different browsers show a Quicktime differently. Now that I've switched to 2.2, Firefox looks too dark and Safari looks just right (where as before Firefox looked just right and Safari was washed out). Is there or is there not an option to include a color profile with Quicktimes? If not, I'll have to make a compromise, and I'd rather have one that looks great across all high-end monitors (meaning an expensive Dell or Apple monitor on OSX, WXP, and WV).
Does anyone know what in particular is making the two browsers display Quicktimes differently?

Webpages look different on all mac browsers than they do on IE

Ok, I just purchased an IMAC 27inch and I am not happy. The WebPages I used to do my job on my windows machine worked fine. On my IMAC, they look different, as if part of the page is lying on tope of another part of it, or like the tables used to create the web page are skewed.
I have tried this on Safari, Firefox and Opera. I went back to the mac store and brought the webpage up on the model in the store and the same thing happen. The sales person downloaded and installed Chrome and there was no change. It did the same thing on chrome.
Has anyone had a similar problem? WebPages looking different on the IMAC than they do on windows IE? I need to get this figured out fast or I will just take this thing back. I have 11 days left on the 14 day return policy. Help.
I will try and figure out how to upload a pdf of both WebPages to this thread

So, is this your first Mac? I remember when I switched over from a PC, I had the exact same issue. Trust me on this one, there is nothing wrong with your computer, it simply takes time to mentally adjust to the differences. It looks as if Safari does not show the complete webpage, or looks as if it is cutoff, or as you said, "skewed." But it is not, your eyes are so used to the IE format and your brain has grown so accustomed to your internet experience being a certain way that it takes time to get used to it. I posted the EXACT same question five years ago in this forum and everyone told me what I am telling you and I got pretty upset with some very knowledgeable people. Now I feel like a fool for having disagreed because I see nothing wrong with it at all, but I am using the same exact computer I was five years ago (I love IMac's, how many PC's can one say that about) You will get used to it, no doubt about it.

Exported swf looking different in Pc and Mac

So I made pages with FC. But now i have noticed that it is looking different in different operating systems.
When I look it with my Mac Book pro using what ever browser (safari, firefox etc.) The text in this page will look like this.
Also as you can see I have pressed down the link "Maanantai". In Mac it is looking ok. But in PC there are some cutting.
And if I look the text with PC (windows XP) with any browser (IE, firefox) it will look like this. How it is possible?
I thought that swf file is WYSIWYG? Apparently it generates something concerning to text.

Hi,
You are correct about font embedding - if you don't do it, your text will look different across platforms.
If you're willing to jump to Flash Builder, here's the documentation on embedding fonts:

Exported pictures look different when uploaded to websites.

I noticed that exported pictures from Lightroom uploaded to Facebook or Shutterfly look different that when viewing the same exported pictures on my pc. Why is that? The exported pictures were not adjusted, maybe only cropped and red eyes were removed. Yet the colors appear different when viewing the same pictures on Facebook or in Shutterfly. If I upload exact the same picture directly from my picture folder, the colors look different. I wonder why this is happening.

Export as sRGB will always help; however most browsers are not colour managed so the colour reproduction can vary anyway even when using sRGB. Only Safari is fully managed, Firefox works up to a point (it only uses icc v2 profiles, not v4 it will be OK with LR as LR presently exports to the v2 version of sRGB) or browsers don't honour profiles at all. Calibrating your monitor is also an important factor here and a hardwear device is required to do this correctly.
How an image looks in non colour managed applications cannot be a basis for jusdging an image so only fully colour managed applications (such as LR or PS) should ever be used for processing.
