Other Web browsers for Intel Mac?

Has anyone tried using Explorer or Firefox (both NOT universal) on their Intel Mac through Rosetta? Does it work ok? Or does it slow things down, crash, or other problems?
Safari DOES NOT work well with ebay. I tried to sell an item on ebay and it wouldn't work. Ebay says Safari is the problem.
Thanks in advance

IE 5 did work with ebay in Rosetta fine.
Says it won't be available for download on Mactopia after Jan 31.
I guess FireFox would be the next most reliable browser?

  • Newbie needs help: Authorware Web Player for Intel Mac OS X

    Hi guys,
    Complete newbie here in need of assistance please.
    I am using a Intel MacBook Pro 3.1 (early 2007) running Leopard OSX 10.5.8
    Have paid to do basic computer Microsoft Office course via net. College still uses MS 2003 and so I bought Office for Mac 04 as I was told all
    I needed to be able to do this course was to be able to open office docs via email.
    Have just received the course book and page 2 tells me to download Macromedia Flash and Authorware Web Players 5 and 7.
    Flash loads without a glitch. Went to Adobe-Downloads-Web Players page, scrolled down to Authorware player which lists both a compact and a complete version of Web Player 7 for OS X on Safari. But here's the kicker - it specifically states for Power PCs. I tried to download it anyway and
    of course it will not load. So I am apparently up the proverbial creek as far as the course goes.
    So my question is this: Has Adobe just wiped its hands of all mac users of this app once Apple changed to the Intel architecture?
    Or does anyone know of a work around or another app that can help me out of this problem?
    Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated as I am supposed to have started this course and unbelievably cannot get past page 2!
    Cheers and thanx in advance
    Yours
    Micki

      Hi everyone,
    Just thought I would give you an update on my problem. I was contacted by the lovely Matt from Adobe customer care, who was right on the ball as far as accessing my problem and was as helpful as can be. I just thought I would post his reply to my email to let everyone here know that Adobe do have a customer care line and people there to help us.
    From Matthew:
    Hello bmw14,
    First, if you send me your phone number, I can call you directly to try to resolve your issue more quickly.
    With regards to the problems you’re having, the course book is probably indicating these older Flash and Authorware Player versions simply because they were contemporary when the book was authored. The Player teams put a lot of work into ensuring that new versions can play any content that worked in the previous versions. So my recommendation is to uninstall any older versions, and just install the most recent versions of the players. These should be capable of playing any content that was authored for use by players 5 & 7 ,etc.
    Let me know if this helps, or if you’d like a call, or if we should consider the problem solved.
    Sincerely,
    Matthew

  • Hi. Dear users. What about Web Browsers for Mac and IPhone 4S devices

    Hi. Dear users. What about Web Browsers for Mac and IPhone 4S devices?
    Test Labs: THG and something else.
    Thanks for responses and future responses.
    Big Thanks.

    "What about?" Both come with Safari as a Web Browser.
    Can you be a little more specific as to the information you are requesting?

  • How can I get my Mac to connect faster to the Internet? My wifi connection is fine....don't know why Safari and other web browsers are so slow.

    If possible, connect to your router with Ethernet and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?

  • Safari compared to other web browsers

    I'm relatively new at the computer game and have received some great
    advice at this site.
    I many of the discussions, other web browsers are mentioned and today Firefox has released a new beta version. At least at this point I am relatively happy with Safari (although I do have to quit at times to get the page I want).
    Could some of you with more experience tell me the major advantages of other browsers such as Firefox and if I should try them out??--Or should I just stick with Safari until I gain more experience?
    Thanks

    Safari is an excellent browser, but it does have its quirks (as do all browsers). Ninety-eight percent of the sites I visit work fine with Safari, including the particular banking sites I use. Other people have more problems. Everybody has problems with web sites built with Windows-only technologies, regardless of which Mac browser they are using.
    There are several people who have their favorite non-Safari browser. Firefox, Opera, OmniWeb, and iCab all rank high on this list. They are also all very good browsers and each have their strong and weak points.
    If you are brand new to computing, you might want to stick with Safari until you are comfortable using the Internet. If you run up against a site that Safari chokes on you could then try an alternate browser.
    Once you are comfortable with Safari and if you want to try out other browsers, download them one at a time and use them as your main browser for a while to get a feel for them, then try a different one if you like.
    I switch back and forth between Safari and Firefox myself, but I have several browsers installed so I can see how different web sites appear in different browsers.
    And don't be afraid to ask questions about how - or can - I do this or that. There are lots of people here willing to help you out.

    can do to enable my site to be seen by other users of other
    browsers, please please please please please please some one help

  • File attachment in yahoo mail does not appeare in Firefox 4, but IE & other web browsers show correctly.

    Before I install Firefox 4, I have been use Firefox 3.6 and when I was checking my yahoo mail, there was not any problem to view or download file attachment.
    After installing Firefox 4, when I receive a new mail with file attachment, like as video, or document, I can not see the attachment to download it. but with other web browsers like IE, I can see the attachment of the email.

    Hi!
    People using a Trend Micro virus scanner should disable some webmail function. You can find the solution [http://en.kioskea.net/forum/affich-33677-can-t-download-attachments-on-my-yahoo-email here]
    I do not use Trend Micro, but have the same issues. I just found my "AdBlock Plus" add-on was stopping the attachment download. What you should do to see if this is your problem too: disable AdBlock Plus, restart firefox and see if your problem is solved. Now enable AdBlock Plus again and restart Firefox.
    To fix this problem: In Firefox, click on Add-ons, go to AdBlock Plus, go to Options, click on Filters--> reset statistics. Go to your attachment, click on the attachment (it will fail to download of course). Go back to AdBlock Plus and sort the statistics for "Hits". Now you can see which filter is blocking your attachment download. Disable this filter and you problem is solved!
    Regards!

  • When I navigate web with Firefox my Thinkpad trackpoint center button is not working. With other web browsers it works well. Where is the problem in firefox, how to enable TrackPoint center button?

    When I navigate web with Firefox my Thinkpad trackpoint center button is not working. With other web browsers it works well. Where is the problem in firefox, how to enable TrackPoint center button?

    I have exactly the same settings in Options (in both computers)
    for history, these 2 add-ons and all other stuff in Options. The only difference is that on 1 pc sessions can be saved and closed tabs can be reopened, on other main pc they stopped to work. + no any other add-on that does similar things works on this pc.
    It is also interesting that I can reopen closed visited sites from History Panel, but not by pressing the Button. For now I only manually bookmark links to a temporary folder.
    Recently (some 2 month ago) I pressed x and Firefox closed all tabs without saving them without displaying save & quit pop up.
    so I changed 4 settings in about.config
    browser.tabs.warn on close true
    browser.warn on quit true
    browser.warn on restart true
    browser.show.quit warning true
    but the problem with sessions appeared only 1 week ago.
    So I guess the problem is not with the History settings or other settings. Seems that something responsible for button or for storing info about tabs/sessions got corrupted. :(

  • Juno and Yahoo Webmail: Firefox makes the attach file button in webmail disappear and other web browsers don't

    Using Juno and Yahoo webmail (only on this computer, not my others) the attach file button loads but then disappears when creating a new email or replying. All other web browsers allow me to attach files using these two webmail sites. This does not affect other sites like school applications to upload files for class in Firefox.

    As mentioned in the original post, the user IS the owner and the permissions are WIDE open for the user. I have also tried to disable the anti-virus - no luck. The problem is ONLY happening in Firefox. Chrome and IE work perfect. There is also no problem in Windows. The user can add/remove/edit files in the directory. Right now the solution seems to be to use Chrome. I'm not excited about that, but at this point, the only option.

  • PlainTextPaste for Intel Mac?

    I frequently need to copy many file names into an email. I had been using PlainTextPaste, but that does not run on the Intel Macs. Now, when I select more than one file in the Finder, copy, and paste into an email, the actual files themselves get pasted in, and not the names. Does anyone know of another product like PlainTextPaste for Intel Macs, or is there already a way to get the result I want that I don't know about?
    Thanks,
    -Tiffany

    Create a new document in TextEdit, choose Make Plain Text from the Format menu, paste the list into it, and then copy it from there.

  • My Firefox won't load any websites, but other web browsers will. I have tried following the proxy help to fix this, with no luck. What can I do next?

    Any website I try to visit using Firefox won't load, it just keeps saying that it is unable to connect. I tried other web browsers, and they work no problem. I tried following the proxy steps provided, but did not help.

    Did you check your security software (firewall)?
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox.
    See [[Server not found]] and [[Firewalls]] and http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firewalls
    If you use a Firefox 4 beta release then you should create a new profile exclusively for the 4.0 beta version and create a desktop shortcut with -P "profile" appended to the target to launch that profile.

  • Best financial software for Intel Macs

    I see to my disgust that Intuit just released a new version of Quicken that is not universal binary. That being the case, what is the best home financial software for Intel Macs?

    Hey Todd,
    Just to be sure I am understanding you - you are saying you are miffed because Quicken missed the chance to go Universal Binary. That is understandable, but I just wanted to make sure you knew that it still runs on Intel macs.
    I am running the newest release on my Macbook and to be honest Quicken just isn't one of those apps that is going to benefit from more speed.
    My frustration has always been that Quicken dumbs down the functionality for the Mac version. Still the case with this last release.
    That said, Quicken is still the best buy for my money (sorry couldn't resist!) and runs well via on the Intel macs.
    The best solution and the one I am moving toward is to load XP on Parallels and run the PC version of Quicken that way.
    Best of all worlds I would say.

  • V10.4.7 for Intel Macs only?

    Can anyone confirm for me whether or not there exists a Tiger version 10.4.7 which is only for Intel Macs?

    There was also this:
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosxupdate1047combointel.html
    This updated an Intel Mac up to 10.4.7. It required that a previous version of 10.4 already be installed.
