QuickTime Player Problem with iWeb v3.0.4 and Safari v5.1.2

iWeb v3.0.4 published web site with Safari v5.1.2:
I'm in the process of creating a web site (www.koinonia.com) using iWeb v3.0.4.  There is an inserted QuickTime element on the home page which is playing an mp3 music file.  The QuickTime player (Show movie controller option in iWeb) does not work with Safari v5.1.2 (but does work fine with Firefox v9.0.1).  There should be a Movie Controller below the album jpeg image, but is not there with Safari.  Also, the movie (mp3 audio file) does not play automatically (plays fine with Firefox).  This looks to be a bug with Apple's iWeb / Safari applications.
Does anyone know how to get the QuickTime element to play with Safari v5.1.2?
Thanks

Safari 5 running in Snow Leopard has been a problem for me. It screws up html, loads a distorted control bar in HTML5 and crashes every now and again when I do a Google search. Reporting these issues is a waste of time as the latest update had no fix. I test all my pages in Firefox and Chrome and don't bother much with Safari since less than 3% use it.
I have the same issue as the OP. The file will only load in Safari if the page is open in Firefox at the same time.
This problem arose over a year ago and is related to files imported from iTunes via the media browser. If the OP will confirm that the file came from iTunes, I will have a look at the meta data to see if there's anything there that iTunes has added.
The only time I am forced to use iTunes is for apps that don't allow import from the finder such as certain situations in Keynote. Otherwise, I wish it would disappear down a black hole in the universe along with Windows and Internet Explorer.
I converted the file to MP4 with QT Pro to prove the point that its the actual MP3 file that is causing the problem - along with Safari.
I haven't depended on the QT Plugin for playing media for quite some time now. HTML5 now works in all modern browsers and should also work in IE 8 if the HTML5 Shiv is included in the head of the page.
Its also a breeze to get flexible movies in responsive web design using HTML 5...

I don't bother too much with flash fallback anymore since these designs are mainly for mobile devices and I can ignore those who are reluctant to upgrade their out of date browsers.

  • Problems with iWeb displays on Firefox and IE

    My iWeb pages look fine on Safari but not on Firefox or IE - both those sites show graphics overlapping text, extra spaces between text, missing boxes etc. My site is theFOWL.org - it's a site for a non-profit library organization. It used to work fine on Firefox and IE but not now. Thanks for any help

    Your site looks OK to me in Firefox. This browser does have a problem with image effects such as drop shadows and there are a few ways to overcome this...

    The main thing with IE is to make sure that none of the text boxes and objects are touching or overlapping by doing a Command A on the iWeb page.

  • Problem with iWeb 1.1.2 and Leopard

    I just updated to Leopard, and everything is working fine, except that I cannot open iWeb properly now (version 1.1.2 - iLife '06). I'm going to update to '08 soon anyway now, but want to be able to open my current iWeb. My .Mac sites are still there, but they don't show up properly in iWeb (pages are blank) and I can't click on anything in the sites organizer sidebar (but pages are still listed). Is there a compatability issue? Do I need a certain amount of hard disk space? I thought maybe RAM, but other even larger applications than iWeb that I have open fine.
    I have Leopard 10.5.2, a 1.8 GHz processor and Quicktime 7.4.5.
    Can this be fixed?
    Thanks,
    Paul

  • Problems with modalPanel in Internet Explorer and Safari

    Hello there,
    I am working on a JSF (Richfaces) application. To handle advanced searches and confirm boxes I am using the richfaces modalPanel dialog, which uses Ajax. There are a number of re-rendering problems.
    1. First of all, any errors won't display in any browser (including Firefox). From what I can tell it has to do with it refreshing the page before the error message can be displayed in <h:messages />.
    2. In Safari and IE there is no refresh for advanced search dialog, where the modalPanel shows, but does not seem to call the search action and rerender the list. It's almost as if it does nothing. In IE it closes the dialog, but does nothing. In Safari it doesn't even close the dialog. I'm assuming this is relating to the JavaScript the RichFaces library uses. Any ideas??? I'm nervous to change frameworks at this time since I am in the last leg of the project.
    Here's a code example of the advanced search, which does not refresh the list screen.
    Code:
    <rich:modalPanel id="advancedSearch" width="220" height="420">
                 <f:facet name="header">
                    <h:outputText value="#{msgs.advancedSearch}" />
                 </f:facet>
                 <f:facet name="controls">
                         <h:graphicImage value="/images/btn_logout.gif" width="15" style="cursor:pointer" onclick="Richfaces.hideModalPanel('advancedSearch')" />
                 </f:facet>
                   <h:form>
                        <a4j:commandLink action="bookList" reRender="bookList"   oncomplete="{Richfaces.hideModalPanel('advancedSearch');}" >
                             <h:graphicImage class="searchIcon" id="advSearchGraphc" value="/images/btn_search_UP.gif" alt="#{msgs.search}" />
                        </a4j:commandLink>
                   </h:form>
             </rich:modalPanel>     As you can see I am calling reRender="bookList" which is the id of the datatable. From what I can tell the problem is something to do with the javascript not running properly on IE and Safari.
    <rich:dataTable width="644" id="bookList" rows="12" value="#{Book.list}" var="book">     How can I get around this?
    Any pointers would be hugely appreciated.
    Jared

    I suggest you to post your question in the JBoss RichFaces forum, good luck!

  • Problem with iWeb asking for username and password to access my public site

    Today for some reason anyone trying to access my site is being asked for username and password. I have made no changes that would require a password. My site has always been public.

    I am having the same problems. My site is public, I checked the settings on the public folder on MobileMe to ensure that it was public and did not require password protection either. But for some odd reason, even though I didn't change anything, my site's pages seem to require a user name and password to get into them. If one continues to click cancel, the page continues to load.
    This does not happen every single time, but it happens more often than not. I have tried this with my iMac, Macbook, as well as my iPod Touch, and I get this on all machines. My brother has tried logging in from another location using his Macbook Pro, and he gets the password prompt as well.
    I tried turning on password protection to the site and uploading the changes, then disabling password protection and reupping the changes once again. I've tried uploading entire site, instead of just changes, but the problem continues to persist. I definitely need this issue solved since this site is important to me.
    The site url is: http://www.globalwinetour.com
    Does anyone have any suggestions to rectify this, or does anyone have any idea what is causing it? Am I missing something here? Am I doing something wrong? Please help me out!
    Many thanks in advance!

  • Problems with iWeb and mobile me

    Ciao everyone,
    I've been having a ridiculous amount of problems with my mobile me account and my iweb. 2 weeks ago I was fine with my iweb and mobile me but all of a sudden my iweb would say it publish but it really doesn't publish. The I went to the mac store a couple of times and thought I would get answers but I didnt get any answer even though I had a couple of one to one visits with a couple of stores in NYC. So when i publish it it shows that it published in my www.me.com/idisk/iweb folder but then it doesn't show in my website. Then one guy told me that I should just recreate a new site but copy and past all the old information to the new one. Now it won't publish at all because I guess its a lot of information to publish at once. I get an error message saying error iweb was not able to publish please try again later. Any help?

    Hey you guys,
    Thanks for the help, but I did try to publish all to my iweb and it didn't work. I do try to view my published website through the file/visit published site and for some reason only my intro page is there then when i go into the main page i get an error page. I also did go to my finder/Go/idisk/myidisk/iweb/site/iweb and saw my websites folder. Everything seems to be in it. I tried to take a screen shot of what is in my folder but I can't post pictures. In my folder I have a folder for gallery, index.html, site, shites.rss, and my website folder usvisualswebsite
    Any other suggestions? This is really frustrating. I also created another test site with nothing in it and published it and it says it finishes publishing but the blank test page isn't there.

  • Problem with iWeb 09, after the publication in a local file.

    *Subject: problem with iWeb 09, after the publication in a local file, i can't see my blog, nor my photos, but before that all was working fine.*
    After the publication in the local file, I see all my pages, but there is a mistake on the page "Blog" where I just can see the top of my page, it's cut and I can't see it entirely, so I can't see the inputs while I should see 3 news or 3 inputs. And it's the same for the "Photos" page where the page is cut, I can't see the photos, and it's just written : "Put the slide show and subscribe".To finish, when I want to activate the comments, it doesn't work neither.
    Please help me.

    I want to activate the comments, it doesn't work neither.
    The comments feature is only available when you publish to the MobileMe server, so I don't think you can use it when you publish to a local file.

  • Problem with iWeb publishing to IE

    Hello, I am experiencing a problem with iWeb '08 publishing content to Internet Explorer. The images and web pages look fine in Safari and in Firefox, but a lot of the web page images are mirrored in IE, covering up large parts of the text. Please don't tell me I have to spend $79.00 on upgrading to iLife '09. I just upgraded my iWorks to '09, but would upgrading to '09 in this instance even be the answer? Please advise. I fear that I will alienating any of my IE web surfers. Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Hello and welcome to the board.
    IE is a terrible browser to render pages made with IWeb (I'm not sure upgrading to ILife 09 will fix your problem).
    I decided to somewhat "alienate" my IE visitor by putting a message on my home page that recommend them to use a compatible browser. Check my page (using IE here: http://www.wesdotphotography.com/Home.html) and look at the message. Also if you use any other browser you will not see my message and will experience a better browsing. It is not the fault of IWeb but more like Microsoft not writing a proper browser. a lot of people will confirm my say.
    Search this forum and you will see a lot of complaints about IE.
    Good luck

  • Problems with iWeb, after installing Lion

    Hi,
    Ever since I installed Lion, I have been having problems with iWeb. Any changes I make in iWeb, and then publish to my site, via mobileme, are not saved, and the site reverts to the orignial site, after closing the website, and iWeb also loses the cahnges. I am unable to sue the Publish Site button, and the option for Publish Site changes is not available.
    I am using iLife 11.
    These problems have only occurred since I installed Lion.
    Any help greatly appreciated.
    Nozza

    In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    For opening your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
    do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate
    Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
    You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
    WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

  • Problems with iWeb 09 on Safari 4.04 on Snow Leopard 10.6.2

    My iWeb 09 v. 3.0.1 website comes out funky, with fonts messed up on some pages, missing pictures, etc. Even on Firefox 1.5.0.12 same issues.
    Yet, the same site on my old laptop with OSX 10.4.11 and Safari 4.0.3 runs fine. And runs fine on Firefox 1.5.0.12.
    Are there known issues with iWeb 09 with Snow Leopard and Safari?
    Frustrating!
    Thanks

    So you started from the normal Tiger system and inserted the SL disc, tried to install but it ejected the disc without an automatic restart?
    If you do the installation that way, the system update is carried out while the restart is in progress before the internal HD is remounted (which it why it takes a long time to restart).
    If that's failed, have you tried inserting the disc, immediately restarting and holding down the C key during startup?
    If that boots you to the installer, you will need to ignore the install screen to begin with, select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu in the top menu bar and erase Macintosh HD before continuing the installation.
    What I'm guessing has happened is that the installation has written the system files to their temporary folder from where they would be used to replace the existing Tiger system during the restart. Something has prevented that replacement from happening, but when you now insert the disc, the presence of the temp files inhibits it from proceeding further.
    Erasing the Mac HD will remove all of that and should allow a clean install.
    However, it will also wipe everything else, so make sure you have a current backup before proceeding down that route.

  • Problem with QT 7.1.5 and Sorensen codec?

    Has anyone noticed a compatibility problem with Sorensen video 3 codec and Quicktime 7.1.5? This problem did not seem to exist in prior versions (hence have been asking how to reinstall previous version but seems impossible). Some of the earlier postings discuss software that may be designed with Sorensen codec... these may be the ones not functioning properly now (video no longer works). Does this sounds plausible?
    Mac Mac OS X (10.4.8)
    Mac Mac OS X (10.4.8)
    Mac   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    That may be true, Jack, but Edmund said that the movie played in QuickTime Player. So his problem is most likely not a bug in QuickTime, though I can't say for certain.
    And as I said above, I have no problem playing Sorenson-encoded content on my Intel-based Mac with QuickTime 7.1.5, so more details about your content and setup (including any third-party codecs you may have installed) so that people can determine what the difference might be between the content that plays and the content that does not, or what's different in the systems, would be helpful, I'm sure.
