Pinch to zoom not working properly in Safari 5.1

I have OS X 10.6.8 (downloading lion as i type). I updated safari this morning and ever since I did that, pinch to zoom isnt working right. I can pinch to zoom in, to a certain extent but I can not get as large as I want as I used to and I cannot zoom back out at all. It seems to be working properly in my other apps so I guess it's something in safari. I'm not very Mac savvy since everything usually works and I dont have to be, so maybe I'm missing something? Help! I use this feature CONSTANTLY and desperately want it back. Thanks in advance!

Same here.
MBP Late 2007 with Magic Trackpad
OSX 10.6.8
Safari 5.1  (6534.50)
I could zoom in once and then it wouldn't work anymore by using the pinching on the Magic Trackpad.
Pressing Command and +/- still worked.
I deleted Safari 5.1 and reinstalled the Combo Update to get 5.0.5 back and it worked properly again.
Then I installed 5.1 another time and had the same error again.
I guess I got to roll back to 5.0.5

  • Pinch to zoom not working on safari

    I have a 2012 macbook pro running mountain lion. when im on safari, my pinch to zoom gesture doesnt work. i can double tap and it will zoom in and out, but i really need the pinch to zoom gesture back. ive tried pinch to zoom on other apps like iphoto, and preview, but it doesnt work on safari. everything else does though.. and i never messed around with the settings. When i looked into the settings, pinch to zoom was on..
    can anyone help?

    I get this too, but quiting and re-opening Safari fixes the issue until it stops again.

  • Outlook web app not working properly in Safari since switching to Yosemite

    I have installed/upgraded to Yosemite first on my MacBook Air (13-inch,  2011) and then on my IMac 13.2 (27inch, 2012). In both cases I have experienced the same thing: when trying to attach a file to the message written using the Outlook Web App, I get only upper part of this window and while I can browse for the file, I cannot attach it as I cannot reach and click the "attach file" button. Needless to say this is really annoying!
    I did not have this problem before upgrading to Yosemite and Safari 8. The same function still works if I use Firefox or Opera. 
    Anyone had similar problems and any suggestions how to go around it without switching back to the old OS X?

  • My iPads Pinch to Zoom not working

    I have just bought the new iPad, I am running iOS 6 and there is a particular website I can't pinch and zoom with. However with this same website I can pinch and zoom on my iPhone 4 running iOS 6. So I doubt it's an iOS 6 issue. Can anyone help?  I called Apple they told be to contact the websites administrators, like I would really get a response. Can someone with a iPad 3 running iOS 6 help me test the site? Thanks.

  • Gif's not working Properly in Safari

    this gif, www.harlemnocturne.ytmnd.com , (worksafe, just turn down speakers) will load for me, but the second half moves extremely slowly. i created that gif, and I know what it should be like, but in safari it doesnt work properly. It loaded and played fine in Internet explorer, but it won't in safari. Other gifs behave this way as well, and its very annoying. I can't remember if this started before the most recent safari patch or not.

  • Pinch to zoom not working in Illustrator CS6

    After replacing a lot of the hardware in my MacBook Pro and re-installing CS6, I've found that pinch-to-zoom no longer works in Illustrator.
    It's functioning fine in InDesign and PhotoShop though.
    Am I missing some preference option to enable multi-touch gestures?

    yes, what in the world is going on with this latest OS, even claimed to be world's most advanced!?
    I was shocked enough when I realized no 4finger swipe to switch apps, and 3finger swipe to go back and forth between pages not working when you have 3finger drag enabled
    now what's utterly frustrating is NO MORE PINCH TO ZOOM IN FINDER
    this is like one of the most important functions in the OS, and it's gone!?
    this must come back
    please fix these in the next update

  • Pinch to Zoom not working

    Hi,
    Just bought an iPhone and my pinch to zoom on certain web pages isnt working. eg: on google I cant pinch and zoom on any search results or pictures in the 'Images' tab. When I click on an image it still wont zoom.
    Has anyone else had the same problem?
    Does anyone have any suggestions.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    There is nothing wrong with the phone.
    The web page is coded to not allow pinch to zoom.
    There is nothing you can do.

  • Videos from Yahoo or other websites not working properly in Safari

    Videos from Yahoo or other websites are not working in Safari on Ipod Touch. I downloaded the plugin, but still it does not work.
    Is this functionality supported?

    Mr. Jobs, who for some reason can't get an Apple employee avatar (seems strange doesn't it?) is correct that there is no Flash plugin for the iPhone/Touch. Apple did not want to use Flash lite for the the iPhone, which has a full browser, and according to the CEO for Adobe they underestimated the difficulty level in creating a version for the iPhone/Touch. He did say the "ball is in their court", and that Apple (that has had previous battles with Adobe) did have engineers working to help them.
    Of course now that the CEO of Apple is calling their code "hideous" the cooperation may end.

  • Safari Pinch and Zoom not working on one web site

    Now I thought the zoom in/out feature just worked when ever you wanted on Safari. Well I heard about the iPhone-version of the MacTech web site, so I went to check it out. Well now I can't zoom in/out on that site. It's totally ignoring me, so I opened another Safari window and went to a different site; low and behold the zoom works fine. So I go back to MacTech, and still the zoom doesn't work. So what gives?
    This really s* since if I've viewing the MacTech website while holding my iPhone vertically I can't shrink the page down to see everything and I'm forced to scroll side to side.
    I really hope that Apple hasn't provided web sites a way of blocking our zooming, as it is a fantastic feature.
    Oh, the web site is:
    www.mactech.com/commapplenewsforiphone.php
    in case anyone else wants to try it out.

    They've set:
    meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale=2.3, user-scalable=no"
    It's the user-scalable that's the problem. Apple considers the default (per their web coding rules at http://developer.apple.com/iphone/designingcontent.html to be yes.
    I've noticed the same thing.

  • Why is pinch to zoom not working on 10.5.8 OSX?

    Just noticed that this has not been working for most of my applications. I tried finding answers in other Apple Support related topics but none seemed to help and are outdated.
    Any help is appreciated. 
    Thanks.

    THis seems to be a trend amongst websites that think they know better when it comes to zooming.  Perhaps they don't want you zooming the ads out of view.
    The best solution I've found is to create a bookmark, any bookmark, then edit the bookmark and put the following javascript into the URL field.
    javascript:document.querySelector('meta%5Bname=viewport%5D').setAttribute('conte nt','width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=10.0,user-scalable=1');
    I keep this bookmark on a button at the top of the screen and tap it when I hit a website that won't allow zooming.  Some of us like to enlarge the text because our eyes aren't as good as they used to be.
