Because IE 6 is 5+ years old and hasn't been updated in a long while and the only reason it's still kicking in somewhat decent numbers is because some large companys utilized IE-only type features for internal applications and intranets and thus forced Microsoft to conitnue to support it beyond the original end-of-support date. :-)
By the way, potentially you could just give IE 6 a really bare-bones layout - but you'll need to make sure that that's acceptable for the project. Also it's good for your sanity if you stop trying to make the site look exactly the same in every browser. It's much easier to make it look "good enough" and make sure that the content is accessible and the site usable.

  • Please help - iMessage won't work

    So I updated my phone today like I'm sure a lot of you did and I tried going in to activate my iMessage, I've tried it for hours and even reset my phone and it won't work.  I know my id and password are right and my connection to my wifi is good but every time I do it it pops up after about 30 seconds of trying and says "could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again"
    Someone please help ... What do I do? My date &amp; time thing is already set to on as I previously read.

    If you are having trouble with SMS messages, then you would need to address that with your carrier, unless you are receiving them and just not get a notification. If you have followed the steps I gave you for iMessage and you are not receiving notifications, then check the settings for Notification Center. If you have Messages set to show on the lock screen and play a sound, and display a banner, etc. then your next step is a restore. First restore from a backup, and if that doesn't work, then restore as a new device. Restoring the phone will result in the loss of all data. Make sure you have backed up the phone, synced all content and imported photos to the computer.

  • Please help - AppleWorks won't open. The icon just bounces in the Dock.

    I have been writing and saving all day on Appleworks. Now when I want to open up an Appleworks file, it won't open up. I tried clicking it from an icon on my desktop, clicking a file from my Recent Items list, and getting one from my hard drive. Nothing opens up. I tried turning off my computer and restarting it and it still will not open any Appleworks file. The Appleworks icon at the bottom bar of my computer just bounces up and down, but nothing opens up. I am able to open my iWorks Pages files without any problem. The bad thing is that I need to get my saved Appleworks files and edit them. Please help... Thanks in advance, Teachermom99

    When an application stops working as it should, it's likely due to corrupt preferences. You can follow the steps in this user tip or use the reset function of Dale Gillard's Sidekick.

    FYi, im using Flash CS3/AS3

  • Please help, CS3 won't run with 10.5.2!  Please!

    Installed 10.5.2 on my g5 dual 2.5 w 4.5 gigs ram (NOT) intel. Now my AE projects won't run. One started to and then quit. This is major for me. Involves dozens of projects. Please help.

    Yes, my powerbook is also trouble-free.
    But it's just too slow to run AE on.
    And yes, yes, I did repair permissions. I did everything including a "safe" starup, repair permissions many many times, etc. etc. etc.
    I'm beginning to think the problem with AE was with non-ae plugins. But then why did automator and software update cease to work?????

    What is the context you're asking these questions in? Are these interview questions? Homework questions? Or is there some underlying business problem you're trying to solve?

    Create Query to restrict the user to a single row.                     I don't understand the question. You may be trying to create a VPD policy for the table, but that is far from clear from the question.
    Query to get the first inserted record FROM a table.                Probably not possible in general. Oracle doesn't track the date at which a row was inserted.
    Concatenate a column value with multiple rows.                          Again, I don't understand the question.
    Query to delete all the tables at once.                You'd need dynamic SQL. And a definition of "all tables"-- are you talking about all tables in a particular schema? All the tables in multiple schemas? Something else? Does "at once" imply that you want things to run in parallel? And does "delete" really mean delete (a DML operation)? truncate (a DDL operation)? or drop?
    SQL Query for getting Orphan Records.You'd need a definition of "orphan record" and requirements for what the parent and child tables are. The normal approach to finding parent and child tables dynamically would leverage foreign key constraints, but that would generally preclude the presence of orphan records.

  • Please Help--It Won't Work At All!!!

    Today when I was using my iPod, the battery went completely down, to the point where I had to charge it. I plugged it into the computer, and iTunes didn't come up. So I took the USB cable out and plugged it back in. Still didn't work, so I manually brought iTunes up. My iPod is all black, and nothing works. On iTunes, it doesn't give me the option to sync my iPod. The battery is totally drained, so I can't toggle it or reset. Can someone please help me??!!??!!
    Kellie

    Quicktime or Quicktime Pro (which iTunes uses) don't convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
    See:iPod plays video but not audio.
    You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.
    See this for help: Guide to converting video for iPod (Mac/Windows).

  • Please help - why won't my Ipod songs transfer into new Itunes?

    I have a new Macbook, and want to move all the songs from my Ipod into my Itunes library on this computer. Nothing works. Can someone please help?
    Please note - currently my library is on my crappy HP. But I did read that you can transfer all songs from the Ipod alone (including those not purchased from Itunes).
    macbook   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  
    mac book   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    I use an application called Senuti. That transfers all content from your iPod to your Mac, including non purchased content. It's free and easy to use. With your iPod connected to your Mac, launch Senuti and the rest is pretty simple. I would suggest you create a folder on your desktop and set your destination to that folder in the Senuti preferences. Also, it's a good idea to keep everything organized by checking the artist and album boxes in the preferences as well. Like I said, it's pretty easy. Good luck.

  • Please help - FCP won't export using DVCPro HD (or any HD) settings.

    Please help. I'm under a tight deadline to deliver.
    The native setting for both the project and footage is DVCPro HD 720p60 but when I export with this setting, or any other HD setting, whether to a Quicktime Movie or using Quicktime Conversion, the resulting image has thick black lines on both sides of the screen and in the middle.
    I have Quicktime Pro and have already reinstalled FCP to make sure I have all the components. But it's still not working.
    Please - any advice would help.
    Thanks.

    Well, have you done the usual things for when FCP doesn't act right?
    #44: FCP acting weird - Trash Prefs
    Shane's Stock Answer #44: FCP acting weird or unusual. Just not like is normally should
    If the program was working fine, and now isn't, or just isn't working the way it should, the first things to do are:
    1) Trash your FCP preferences. Download the appropriate version of FCP Rescue at http://www.pistolerapost2.com/fcprescue and run it.
    2) Open the Disk Utility and Repair Permissions.
    3) Shut down for 10 min. Go for a quick walk around the block and get SOME exercise today. Come back, turn on the computer and see how things are.
    4) (optional) Do the Hokey Pokey and turn your self about. Results may vary.

  • Please help, iMac's bad display

    I'm buying a computer for school in the next two months and I really need some help. I have been set on the 20in 2.4 Ghz iMac and now im reading so much on the screen quality and it being washed out towards the bottom. So now i dont know what to do, how severe the problem is, if it's being fixed, and what people are doing about it that have already bought these affected models. I made an account on apple.com just to ask this question so please help me. I dont want to have to buy a macbook justto have a better screen and I cant afford a macbook pro.

    They're not doing anything. Another guy here on the boards has all but been in contact with the iMac engineering group and was basically told that it was "within specification." In engineering speak that means roughly, "you are S-O-L." They're not fixing it until at least the next revision.

  • Please help:  iTunes won't import whole songs!

    I have put my old hard drive (which contained all of my music) into my new computer, and added all the tracks into iTunes on the new computer. Unfortunately, some of the tracks cut off prematurely, even though the track shows the correct time (it just goes right to the next track instead of running completely through). Short of manually importing each CD back into iTunes, I'm not sure what to do. Can anyone please help? Thanks!

    Hi thanks. I have try'd installing an older version off a disk that i've got but it get a message telling me it is not possible to install an older version. Will i have to remove the current one 1st? an if so how do i do it like i said i'm a bit off a novice? do i just drag it in to the trash?
    Thanks

  • Please Help! Won't import Garageband tracks into iTunes

  • Please help - iTunes won't start anymore: unknown error -69

    Hello out there,
    please can anybody help me: all of a sudden my iTunes won't start any more - it only shows a message stating an unknown error -69 and then quits.
    I did not change anything on my system before that, so I just don't know what could trigger that...
    I am using iTunes 7.0.2 on Windows XP SP2, both German versions.
    Before posting this question I searched the archives and tried the following, all to no avail:
    1. disabled "safe mode" in QuickTime audio options -> problem remains
    2. set speakers to "stereo headphones" in Windows sound options -> problem remains
    3. deinstalled iTunes, downloaded the installation file again and reinstalled it -> problem remains
    4. deinstalled iTunes and QuickTime, downloaded QuickTime stand-alone version, installed this and afterwards iTunes again -> problem remains
    5. deinstalled iTunes and QuickTime again, deleted all iTunes and QuickTime data folders, reinstalled everything again -> problem remains
    6. ran a CHKDSK an the drive iTunes is on -> no problems found
    It still won't start, always giving this unknown error -69.
    Please, does anybody know what to do?
    Any hints and help are much appreciated!
    Thanks a lot
    and best regards

  • Please Help Phone Won't Turn On!

    I've had my iphone 3G since it came out and it hasn't really given me any problems. Starting Tuesday night it started doing this weird thing, the screen turns white then black and it won't go back on until it turns itself on. Sometimes this lasts longer then other times. Apple told me they would give me an appointment to go to their store. But today for some reason the phone won't go on at all. Please somebody I really need help. Thanks!

    Have you tried a reset:
    Page 34 of the manual:
    "Reset iPhone: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the
    same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    For more troubleshooting suggestions, see Appendix A, “Troubleshooting,” on page 131. "
