No favicon showing in Safari 8.0 sidebar

Although I love Yosemite a bunch, I have one problem with Safari 8.0. As a visually impaired guy, I find it extremely useful to see the colored favicons in the sidebar of Safari under Mavericks. Now they have disappeared, and are replaced by a generic bookmark symbol. Is there any way at all to get back the old look? It has become so difficult for me to find sites with this new version. Perhaps a third-party plugin exists or I just missed something in the preferences. Although I love and use VoiceOver for much of my work, this is little help in searching the sidebar.

Try dragging your mouse over were it once was, on my MacBook Pro-Safari it appears only cursor hovering over. Not a "Fix" just a suggestion

I am rying to un-disable my disabled 4th generation iPodTouch. It says that I need to enter the password on my iPod but my iPod is disabled and says to connect to iTunes. Any help? It won't even show up in the left sidebar. Help?? :/

I am trying to re-able my disabled iPod. It is a 4th Generation iPod touch 8gb. It has a crack screen and the lock/sleep button and the volume buttons do not work. It says in red ribbon on the top of the screen, "iPod is disabled Connect to iTunes". When I connect it to iTunes it doesn't show up in the left sidebar. Instead a message pops up and says, "iTunes could not connect to the iPod 'Madyz iPod' because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter you passcode on the iPod before it can be used with iTunes." What do I do? I would really appreciate help.(: thanks.

If you can't enter the passcode then you have to place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore the iPod via iTunes. For ecovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
Note that this requires using the sleep/wake button. If you are not successful then there is nothing else that I know you can do.

External Mounted Hard Drive Icon Not Showing on Desktop nor on Sidebar

Bonjour,
I have a portable drive that does NOT show up in the Sidebar nor on the Desktop. The only way I can see and navigate through it is by clicking in Disk Utility > Mount Point: <hyper-link>
Then hard drive icon and its content show up fine. But the HD icon is slightly dimmed (it is paler than the all other - HD, computer, etc - icons).
I verified the external HD and it is just fine. I have another eDrive (TechTool Pro 4) partition and it shows up like any normal HDs normally does.
How can I get the icon to show up back into the Sidebar and the Desktop?
Is there a "Preference" file I need to throw out?
Is there a UNIX command I could execute to make it show up again?
Thanks for your assistance.

Open the Script Editor in the /Applications/AppleScript/ folder and run the following:
tell application "System Events"
set visible of (choose folder with invisibles) to false
end tell
When prompted, select your hard disk in the dialog box. Next, log out and back in.

Unkown computer showing up on my finder sidebar under "shared"

Hi there,
I have an unkown computer showing up on my finder sidebar under "shared". The name of this shared computer is "technicolor". How can I disconnect and delete it? I suspect it is spyware or something similar as when I unplug the ethernet cable that connects to my modem, I can't connect to this computer. When I do connect it is empty.
OS 10.5.8
Note: I have had Parallels 4 (virtual PC XP) on my mac for a number of years and when that is running it comes up in the sidebar under "shared" but with the name I gave it when set up. So when running both names show.
I would appreciate some direction on how to get rid of this "shared" computer.
Thanks
Andrew

Somewhere on the network you are using is a computer with that name. If the network is wifi and it's yours, you should change the password on it immediately. If the network is wifi and it belongs to someone else, then talk to that person or stop using that other person's wifi network.
If you just want to get it out of your sidebar, you can choose to have the Finder window sidebar not show available shares. Go to Finder Preferences->General and un-check CONNECTED SERVERS.

CSS styles show in Safari, not Firefox

If you go to
http://www.noematiks.com on a
Mac, the BOLD styles show in Safari but not in Firefox. Not sure
about a Windows machine yet.
The domain nameservers were changed about 32 hours ago and
maybe propagation is causing this issue (thats what my host said).
Any ideas?

Of course it's OK - it's OK to write any kind of code you
want. But if you
want clean, semantically meaningful code, it just makes more
sense to mark
up words that are meant to be emphasized strongly as
<strong> or <em>
rather than as <span>. <span> doesn't mean
anything, while <strong> does.
HTML is a "markup language", meant to "mark up" text in such
a way that
various user agents can display it in meaningful ways. Using
lots of
meaningless tags is never as good code as using semantically
meaningful
tags. Once you used the semantically meaningful tag, you can
always
determine how it's displayed by applying CSS. Conveniently
enough, just
about all browsers display <strong> in boldface, so
there's usually no need
to apply CSS to is.
It's one thing if you just don't care about clean code - then
it's all a
moot point. But it's funny that people do that - replace
<em> and <strong>
with spans which they then style as italic and bold - because
they think
it's *better* code because they're using CSS. That's
completely backwards.
Having said that, I truly don't care what kind of code you or
the original
poster write. Do whatever you want and have fun, and/or get
the job done.
I'm all for that. I was just commenting on what semantically
correct HTML
is.

Banner on wordpress site doesn't show in safari

On my Wordpress site I have added a banner from an external link to be displayed on my frontpage. After saving it doesn't show the banner in Safari (but it does show it in Chrome and someone externally tested and said it showed in Explorer; so the html code must be right). The weird thing is it does show the image of the banner in the Snippet Editor. Anyone has an idea what causes this or how to fix this, I want all Safari users out there to be able to see and click on the banner as well!

Some browsers are far more forgiving of errors than Safari, and not everything works the same way in different browsers.
If the image is visible when you use Safari - Develop menu - Disable Styles, then it's presumably a CSS problem that only shows in Safari.
Do test with all Safari extensions switched off, since they can have unexpected results.

Flash not showing in SAFARI only??

Flash swfs showed up fine in both explorer and safari, until
I installed Flash 8 Pro, which prompted me to upgrade to Flash
Player 9. After that, no swf content would show in Safari, even
local files. They still show in explorer though.
I uninstalled all my old players using the uninstall program,
which deleted all flash plugins from library/internet plugins. Then
reinstalled Flash Player 9, and still no luck. I also uninstalled
again, and reinstalled Flash Player 8 which is the last known
working player I had, and it's still broken. In Safari's activity
window, it doesn't show any error or any swf downloaded. It's just
missing alltogether.
any help?!??!?!

Well i tried a couple of sites and none of them are showing
flash at all!!! On our intranet setup as well the problem persists.
None of the flash objects load in the browser. Tried on IE but no
luck.
Although if you just load a html page directly in browser
without using the web server, the flash shows fine.
If anyone knows what the issue is then please do post a
reply.
Thanks!

Only about 2/3 of the column show. Also, paragraphs on sidebars, such as the Youtube subtitle sentences are cut so after the first line I only see the top of the second line.

If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" as a high value can cause issues like you described.
* Firefox > Preferences > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
* Firefox > Preferences > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems: <b>View > Zoom > Reset</b> (Ctrl+0 (zero); Cmd+0 on Mac)

Safari does not show Gmail Custom Labels on sidebar

I am missing Gmail labels I've created. Sidebar shows the color codes without text or label names. Does anyone have the same problem? I am using Safari 6.05.

You need to restore as new.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
As you have said there is really no data, there is no point restoring from a backup as junaid has suggested. Make sure that iCloud synching is on (sign in with YOUR Apple ID on iCloud) Settings>>iCloud>> Make sure everything you want to synch is ON..Notes>>Contacts etc.
This data will get synched. When you sign in with your APpleID/iCloud the contacts..etc will get pushed back to the phone. Before you restore as new do a backup to be safe but do not restore from it afterwards.
One you have restored as new, the phone will be as it came "out of the box." followo the instructions on screen to set it up.

Why is favicon.ico in Safari 5.0 not showing?

I have added a faviocn.ico to my website. It shows in all browsers but Safari 5.1.1. Does anybody have an idea?

If anyone else has this question. Do you get a broken favicon (a jittery favicon) or none at all (standard blue sphere)? In the first case try to change to another ico file. It is something about the colors. I used http://tools.dynamicdrive.com/favicon/ and a transparent png as source and git it to work on Safari 5.1.7 where i hade a broken one before. If you get none try adding type="image/x-icon" to your link rel="shortcut icon" tag.

PDF file doesn't view properly in firefox & favicon doesn't show in Safari

I've got three issues I could use some advice with.
1. I used some iFrame code generously posted by Oldtoad that allows a pdf file in an IFrame. It works beautifully in Safari. here's an example: http://web.mac.com/phelpssculpture/Site/resumeone_page_DavidPhelps.html
but in Firefox it only opens as a dialog box asking what I want to do with the file (download, etc)
Is there any way to make this view properly in Firefox?
2. I've gone through the process to have a favicon in the address box (ico file uploaded with iTweak) and this views great with Firefox, but nothing in Safari (not sure about others) I've deleted the WebpageIcons.db file repeatedly, emptied cache, deleted all my bookmarks for the site, etc.
Anyone know how to make this work in Safari?
3. I recently updated my site (from iWeb 06) using iWeb 08 and published. A lot of search links got broken. I created a new sitemap (verified by google) and now, no matter what page a search refers to, when you click on it, only my home page opens. Did I do something wrong? It used to be that if a search pointed to a certain page, clicking that result took you directly to that page.
Any suggestions for these problems would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you, David

Old Toad:
I finally got it! the favicon works now at: http://web.me.com/phelpssculpture
Your Instructions at:http://toadstutorials.info/ #22 did the trick.
One problem I had with TextWrangle was I was doing a search and replace for <head><meta and it wasn't working. What I figured out was that there was other code on the line after <head><meta which was preventing the new code from working. I did a minor adjustment on each page in iWeb to force it to republish each page. That made the <head><meta line consistent on each page, then I selected the entire line and replaced it as per your instructions. It worked great. My experience was that iTweak did not process the code properly and was very slow, but this process was great.
Thank you for all your help. Sincerely, David

How Do I get Favicons to show in Safari?

I can't see ANYWHERE online with a simple fix.
I've got favicons in Firefox, but not in Safari. Why is that? Why isn't there an answer on Apple.com?
I'm running Safari Version 5.1.7

Just open all bookmarks in tabs, than close em all - all your favicons appear.

Sorry if it's something really basic...I'm a noob to web design.
Thanks!

Don't use reserved words in JS
var event = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("events.xml", "catalog/event", {sortOnLoad: "date", sortOrderOnLoad: "descending"});
event is such a reserved word. If you change this to event1 then all is well.
I hope this helps.

HT3819 Home Share issue: I have a Mac and Apple TV. Both are log into the same Wifi network and the same iTunes account (I can view purchased movies on AppleTV). Home Sharing shows 'ON' for both devices. BUT...AppleTV shows no computers. Itunes sidebar-no

Has anyone else found solution to Apple devices not 'seeing' each other on Home Share? I have a Macbook Air (new Nov'12) and Apple TV (new Dec'12). Software updated on both. Both are logged into the same Wifi network and the same iTunes account (I can view movies purchased from iTunes on my AppleTV). Home Sharing shows 'ON' for both devices. BUT...AppleTV shows no computers... and ... Itunes sidebar does not have a 'Shared' area at all. Help please as without this functionality, my Apple TV only provides portal to purchased (i.e. Netflix,...) content which I can get from Wii or Xbox.
I have already tried the following without success:
1. Homeshare DID work the first day after I setup Apple TV... but the next day it has not worked since then.
2. Powered off 30 sec then re-started (Apple TV & Macbook & iTunes login)
3. Checked Firewall settings per Home Sharing troubleshooting guide (correct settings)
4. Turning on Photostream in iPhoto and selecting iPhoto within iTunes and then checking to see if Photostream shows anything on AppleTV (it shows 'on' for my iTunes account but 'Zero' pictures found ... despite the >3,000 pictures showing avail in iTunes).
I also have 'Remote" app on my iPhone 4, with Home Sharing turned on (same Wifi network)... it has a very similar message as the Apple TV and same result that despite all devices having HomeShare 'on' they cannot see each other: "Remote will automatically find the iTunes libraries and Apple TVs that have Home Sharing turned on using the account xxxx (it lists my correct itunes account name)."

I solved this by reset of the Wifi (unplug cable and power to both modem and wifi ... wait 60 sec ... plug in modem cable and power ... plug in wifi power and LAN to modem ... restart AppleTV and Mac ... Turn Home Share 'OFF' in iTunes then back "ON" ... it took ~60 sec for the AppleTV to pick up my Mac in computers.
