No drop-own menues in Safari/ Can't resize PDF

When I view PDF pags in Safari, they are almost too small to read. I gather from reading other discussions that I should be able to zoom in and out by command-clicking and choosing zoom from the drop-down menu, but no menu appears. Option clicking also has no effect. I am using a wireless keyboard and mouse, but when I command-click a hyperlink it opens in another window, so I know they must be communicating correctly with the computer.
I am new to Safari and OSX. I am using an iMac Intel Core Duo with 1GB of ram, OSX 10.4.5, and Safari 2.03. Any suggestions?

That Eme's been following me around here all day -
beating me to the points. What she does, is if
there's a new question on here, she emails me, then
while I'm responding to the mail....Game over.
LOL and cry, cry, baby.
I've created a monster! Well done Eme
Thanks Andy. ARRrrgh, no wait that's a Pirate !
Andy they call me mellow yellow ♬ you should of had a star.
Best to you+yours; )

I have created a spreadsheet on numbers for ipad with a list of customers as a drop down menu. How can i make their address appear underneath when I select the customer?
iselect the customer?

Hi bazza,
We won't be able to put the address from a formula into the same cell that you enter the customer's name. We can put the address in the cell under the customers name.
First let's take James advice and concatenate the address in the address table.
Here is the formula in G2
=CONCATENATE(B2&"
",C2&"
",D2&"
",E2)
It shows this way because after I clicked on B2 and typed [&"] (no brackets) I typed option-return
This gives you your new line. Then I typed the closing ". I repeated this for the rest of the address.
Next we want to bring this to your order sheet. I prefer using the two formulas OFFSET and MATCH instead of VLOOKUP.
base tells OFFSETwhere to start counting from. Click A1.
row-offset is for the row. we will use MATCH() -1 to give us the row.
What MATCH does is give you the row number where something is found and you can specify an exact match. I usually construct the MATCH formula first and then cut and paste it into OFFSET. MATCH looks like this: MATCH(A2,Table 1::A,0). A2 is what we are looking for, Table 1A::A is where we are looking (the entire column A), and 0 means we want an exact match. Can you see it inside the OFFSET formula? Notice that we had to subtract 1 from its result.
column-offset tells OFFSET which column A=0 so we want 6.
we ignore "rows", "colomns" we don't need them.
If this seems like too much, just break it down into small pieces.

Safari can't handle PDFs???

Safari 4.0.5 can't read pdfs... it cannot be configured to open pdfs with Preview. Lemme guess: We can use only Adobe products...
Firefox is too slow... Chrome hangs or crashes every few minutes... and now Safari can't handle pdfs. It's useless...

How can I get rid of "History and Bookmarks" section from the search history drop down menu in safari 6.0.2?

Let's just say I have saved bookmarks of things that i do NOT want my friends to see when they use my computer occasionally. I know they could go and find these bookmarks anyway in the bookmarks menu but they dont snoop around my computer. i would rather it not just pop up when they go to search for something or type in a webpage. If there is no way to customize what shows up in the drop down menu for search results then that is something apple overlooked. Not everybody wants things all in one place. Whats the point of deleting search history and website history if its just going to show the certain things you have bookmarked? Any solution to this would be appreciated. One solution i thought would work was disabling search from suggesting, but i guess that only supresses the webpages not the url/search bar. Oh and this is for safari 6.0.2 please dont give me outdated advice.
Thanks

Made a drop down menu. How can I get the drop down to fade in and out? !

Hi guys!
I've created a drop down menu (with the help of you legends on here! )...Now I just need it to animate so when the user hovers over the main menu item, the drop down fades in.
Here's the HTML I have...
    <ul id="nav">
        <li><a href="#">Nav 1</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">Nav 2</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">Nav 3</a>
            <ul>
                <li><a href="#">» Sub Menu 1</a></li>
                <li><a href="#">» Sub Menu 2</a></li>
                <li><a href="#">» Sub Menu 3</a></li>
                <li><a href="#">» Sub Menu 4</a></li>
            </ul>
        </li>
        <li><a href="#">Nav 5</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">Nav 6</a></li>
    </ul>
...and here's my CSS...
ul#nav {width:920px; height:35px; list-style:none; padding:0; margin:0; background:url(navBg.jpg) repeat-x; z-index:999;}
ul#nav li a:hover, #nav li a:active {background:url(navOn.jpg) repeat-x; text-decoration:none;}
ul#nav li a {color:#E0E2E7; display:inline-block; float:left; margin:0; padding:10px 19px; width:auto; text-decoration:none;}
* html #nav li {display:inline; float:left; } /* for IE 6 */
* + html #nav li {display:inline; float:left; } /* for IE 7 */
#nav ul {width:208px; left:-9999em; list-style:none; margin:35px 0; padding:0; position:absolute; z-index:999;}
#nav li:hover ul {left:auto;}
#nav li {float:left;}
#nav li li a {width:190px; background-color:#efefef; color:#2e2e2e; padding:8px; margin:0; }
#nav li li a:hover {background-color:#000; background-image:none; color:#FFF;}
#nav li:hover {background:url(assets/images/frame/navOn.jpg);}
From what I can make out, I assume I need either Javascript or JQuery...
Does anyone know how I can get the drop down to fade in and out?
Thank you very much and I hope to hear from you.
SM

Yes, you'll need a client-side script to do fade-in/fade-out fx. Look at jQuery Superfish.

A box with a blue outline appeared in my bookmark drop-down menu. I can't get rid of it, and it obstructs the view of the bookmarks as I scroll up or down. Help!

I was trying to bookmark a page, using the "Choose" menu in the bookmarks. I must have touched a key by accident, and a box with a blue outline & the name of one of my folders appeared in my bookmark drop-down menu. At first the box contained the folder name, then I was trying to delete the box, and erase the name, thinking it might get rid of the box, but it didn't. I can't get rid of this box! It obstructs the view of what is underneath. It stays in the same position as I scroll up & down in the drop-down menu, and it hides what is underneath. Please help me get rid of this box. It is driving me crazy! Thanks!

Every single website, or link within a website page is being added to my location bar/address bar drop down menu. How can I stop this? This just started happening.

Every single website url address, or url address within a website page is being added to my location bar/address bar drop down menu.
I don't want everything added or saved in the location bar. Only urls that I used a lot used to be saved there but now every single url (and url within a url)I visit is being added to it.
How can I stop this? This just started happening.
I'm sure it's a simple browser setting but I've checked and nothing gives an option to control this.
Firefox 3.0.17
Windows XP
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.17) Gecko/2009122116 Firefox/3.0.17

A possibility is to open the links via the right-click context menu or a middle-click in a new tab to make sure that Firefox sees them as regular links.

How do I find the drop down menu on Safari?

I'm a total novice so apologies right now. I've only had my Mac for a couple of weeks and already I can't sign into ebay which (on my old pc) meant I had to clear my cache. I've searched and seen that I have to use the drop down menu but er, I have no idea what that is, where I can find it or how. Many thanks in advance!

Like I said, apologies! Obviously, I didn't make myself clear at all! Bodycalming, I can confirm that it isn't always possible to successfully sign into ebay. Especially if you need to clear your cookies.
Thank you Carolyn, I actually laughed when I read your reply and I'm sorry to have wasted your time. I've been on ebay since 2003 so I know how to sign in there, I was just being bounced back to the sign in page each time I tried. As I said, I knew how to deal with it on my old pc but was at a loss on my shiny new Mac.
shdr2thewheel, thank you for those links, I've had a quick look and they seem really useful. I've already implemented a few changes! I found the drop down menu now and have cleared my cookies and it seems to be working just fine.
Thank you!

How do I reset Safari on MacBook Pro, running Yosemite 10.10.3 with Safari V8.0.5? The reset button is not in Preferences, Privacy, nor on the drop-down menu of Safari.

I have a 2011 MacBook Pro running Yosemite 10.10.3, and Safari V8.05. I want to reset Safari, but there is no reset in the Safari drop-down nor is there a reset in the Preferences - Privacy window. Any Help out there?

Hi, thanks for the response. I have searched online and many posts say to reset Safari all you have to do is click on the Safari icon, then select reset from the drop down menu, or find the reset button in the privacy window in preferences. My system has neither options. My Safari had been hijacked (frozen) by a pop-up. I cleared all history, cookies, cache, etc. with the wifi off, and it seems to have worked so far. Many posts said to reset Safari, and I don't seem to have that option.
Thanks again.

Safari can´t read PDFs

My Safari don´t open PDFs that I can read with no problems with Firefox.
Does anybody know what happens?
Regards.

I too have had Safari quit and/or hang when trying to view PDFs. I recently loaded Adobe Acrobat Professional 7.0 (CS2 version) so I was suspicious it might be the problem.
Here was how I fixed it:
1) Download latest Adobe Acrobat Reader (9.0 at this time) & install
2) Quit Safari
3) Open Adobe Acrobat Professional
4) Select Acrobat:Preferences:Internet
5) Click the top check box: "Display PDF in browser using:"
6) Select Acrobat Reader in the list box
7) Open Safari & navigate to a PDF link or try this one - http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/fw4.pdf
8) Reader may ask you to input your password for access. Enter Password.
9) Document should open now.

Transferred bookmarks from Chrome not showing on bookmarks toobar - only on nested drop down menu. How can I get them on the toolbar?

Was using Chrome - now using Firefox 8.0.1
I copied and imported bookmarks from Chrome, but they only show up on the 2nd tier drop-down "Bookmarks" tab. How can I get them to show up on the Book marks Toolbar (without re-bookmarking them all)? Thank you.

Re-arrange those bookmarks so they are in the Bookmarks Toolbar folder.

Created my own menu bar - but can't "BRING TO FRONT"

I am wanting to put a photo behind my "menu bar" that I created for my site - however, whenever I try to slide a photo behind it - the menu will not "bring to front" - all other text and images will - but for some reason at the top of the page is different? I feel like there's a lot of "auto formatting" going on in my site as well - anyway to turn that off?
Thanks -

It's all about z-index: http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/zindex.html
iWeb page has four layers: nav layer, header layer, body layer and footer layer.
Look at your age source and you'll find the following z-index:
nav = 0
header = 10
body = 5
footer = 15.
The scenario is that you created your "menu bar" in nav layer, then added a photo in either header or body layer and slide it into the nav layer, but the photo isn't really inside nav layer - it straddles between nav layer and the other layer.
When that happen you will not be able to bring your "menu bar" to front because the photo is always in front of nav layer.
You need to turn on view layout (Shift Command L) to see the layout and move the photo *completely inside nav layer*
or move your menu bar to body layer and add the photo to body layer, in short both the menu bar and the photo have to be in the same layer.

Updated Firefox (as requested) and no longer have ANY search engine options in toolbar drop-down menu. How can I fix this?

The only options in the search feature (in the top right corner of FF) are Delicious and Norton Safe Search. It's the Google search I'm looking for; it's the only one I ever use.

Thank you, cor-el. Your helpful instructions were far over my head. I ended up downgrading to a previous version of Firefox, and all the browser options returned.
THEN... the Norton went fubar, and we lost use of all browsers; couldn't connect to the Internet at all on that laptop. Ended up pulling out an old one, found a Norton representative who instructed us to download onto a flash drive, and used that to uninstall the Norton. Now we have all browsers working normally, with all search functions intact.

Safari can't open PDF files?

My Safari 1.3.1 operating in MacOS 10.3.9 cannot open any PDF files. Whenever I click on a link from which a PDF file can be downloaded, Safari asks me to select an Acrobat application. I do select Acrobat Reader 7.0.7 from my Applications folder, but then Safari only gives me a blank window, with no PDF file to view. The problem is likely in Safari, because I've also tried to open the PDF files stored in my own webpage, which I know that open and read well with other web browsers. I've also read the Help area of Safari, but it gave no useful clue to solve this problem. I have two eMacs and this same problem happens in both computers, that is, I can't open any PDF file using Safari! Does anyone know how to do it? Please write me back to [email protected]
Thanks,
Ricardo
eMac Mac OS X (10.3.9) Safari 1.3.1 and Acrobat Reader 7.0.7

I have already set the Desktop folder as the download destination. Safari simply does not put the PDF files there. Again, it asks me for the application to use, I choose AR 7.0.7, but then I get a blank window instead of the opened PDF file that I need to see. If anyboyd knows how to solve this, please let me know. Thanks.
