Really want to keep Safari--BUT....

I use Easyshare and similar sites.
Safari just shows the same page over and over again WITHOUT accessing the downloads.
I tried restart, flushing the cache, allowing pop-ups. What next?
For my own browsing experience with Safari there are still just too many bugs and annoyances, although it IS fast, but at too high a cost of reliability--pity. This release is more of a Beta standard. sigh.

Andy,
Renaming the directory works!!!.
Thanks so much.
I'm relatively new to MAC OS X so I wanted to post how I renamed the directory for those like me that I'm not gurus on BSD MAC OX commands.
1.-Open a terminal window->Finder->Applications->Utilities->Terminal.app
2.-Type the following under the terminal "mv /usr/local/sps/ia /usr/local/sps/ia.safari.crash"
This should rename your problematic directory "/usr/local/sps/ia" to "/usr/local/sps/ia.safari.crash" and safari should work. Remember that this is for those people that have upgraded to Safari 5 and have SpectorPro software installed on their computers.
I hope to see a proper fix from SpectorPro soon.
Thanks again.
LEON.

    Google changed their menu bar. Firefox hasn't used Google for the default homepage since the Firefox 3.6 versions. Firefox 4+ versions use '''about:home'''.<br />

    Had this problem for quite a while but found a work-a-round. I click anywhere in the text I want to delete and insert any character. I am then able to block and delete any text I want to. It's been working great.

  • Want to keep audio but swap out slides

    I have a traning course that various associations license for
    their members, each association having their own "private label"
    banner logo at the top of each page. I just created a huge demo of
    this course (50+ slides) for the members using screenshots of one
    of the association's versions and everything's just about right,
    including a lot of narration. I'm going to need to make a few more
    demos with the exact same narration for the other associations, but
    will have to switch out the screenshots of the first "private
    label" version with those of the other associations.
    Does anyone have any ideas on how to best do this? I'm almost
    tempted to just paste over the part of each slide displaying the
    association name in the original demo with an image of the other
    associations' names. Most of the logos are a consistent size
    throughout the document.
    I can't imagine there are any tricks to what I'm trying to do
    here reusing the audio like this, but anything anyone knows to make
    this go faster would be a huge help, as I have a few different
    versions to do.
    Thanks!

    That sounds really good. One wrinkle. These are basically
    screenshots of a browser showing the content of a course. About a
    third of the way through, the broswer window changes a little,
    meaning the logo needs to be scaled and moved a bit, so I've been
    pasting the logo into the first third, doing my thing with the
    "merge with background", then realigning the logo and doing the
    same thing for the second third, etc.
    I guess the quesiton is, if the element needs to shift/scale
    occasionally, can I still take advantage of "rest of project"? I'm
    guessing no. I've already segmented this a few times and
    daisy-chained them together, I'm wondering if I should resegment
    them based on these logo shifts I've described.
    The reason I'm so interested in this is I'm going to have to
    do this whole conversion a few times more in the next couple of
    weeks, and more times throughout the year.
    Thanks!

  • I accidently set Firefox as my default browser. I want to keep Safari as my default browser. How do I fix this? Thanks.

  • My BetterPrivacy addon now Freezes firefox, causing a "Script: chrome//bp/content/bp.js:847" unresponsive notification. I'm still running Ff 3.6, and want to keep BetterPrivacy, but I have to disable it now. It worked just fine until recently.

    I have to click on "Stop unresponsive script" to get Firefox to load, and then have to disable BetterPrivacy in order to use Ff normally. I haven't changed Ff or BetterPrivacy lately, to the best of my knowledge, but I can't use the BP add-on any longer.
    Just in case, I also deleted my Chrome browser, which I had as a stand-by, but it didn't help. I still get "A script on this page is unresponsive: Script: chrome//bp/content/bp.js:847". Any ideas?
    I'm not certain which version of BP I had when this problem started, but today I tried adding the latest version, 1.49, but still had same trouble.
    Your "educated guess" is correct - Ff 3.616 and Vista.

    I turned off the accelrator months ago. That was the first thing I did. It helped some. The problem is getting progressively worse, so it seems like every upgrade in the past 3-4 months is causing the problem.

  • I found an iphone and it was at the mall and i kept it is that bad and i was wondering if i could use it as mine and ask the apple store so im asking now can i keep it but erase all content at the apple store because i cant download itunes

    i really want to keep it and when i picked it up no one came running saying its there phone but my mom wont buy me one so i want to know if it like a crime or something to keep it if no one claimed it

    Of course it's a crime.
    You probably won't be able to use it anyway as it would have a activation lock on it.
    Do the right thing and hand it into the police. If you lost your wallet would you want someone to hand it into the police?

  • I bought my iphone 4 through ebay and its unlocked. the problem is that my phone does not sync straight away. I sync my music file through autofill. I want to sync ringtones but its not working

    i bought my iphone 4 through ebay and its unlocked. the problem is that my phone does not sync straight away. I sync my music file through autofill. I want to sync ringtones but its not working.
    I saw cidya aap so i m not sure if it was jailbroken or not before but it is back to normal settings.
    My problem started when I tried to sync my music files. I pressed 'sync' all it says is waiting for sync start, preparing to sync and then waiting for the changes to be applied. but it does not sync at all.
    I found a way to sync my music files through autofill but I really wanted to sync ringtones but its not syncing and I really wanted to put ringtones in my phone please help.

    If you see the cidya app, your iPhone is hacked with the cutsie term for this being jailbroken. This also means all the built in security has been removed making the iPhone as insecure as an android device.
    Restore the iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup to get rid of that hacking garbage. If the iPhone has hacked to be unlocked, the iPhone will no longer be unlocked when doing so.

  • I want to DUMP Safari and move to Firefox - best way?

    I am tired of going to hundreds of websites which Do Not Work in Safari, usually when I'm trying to select a popup or enter data or view some info.
    I then go to FireFox, and it ALWAYS works.
    I have tried Safari 3 Beta for a few weeks now, and it's Even Worse than 2.
    So, if I want to DUMP Safari, but import all the booksmarks and bookmark folders etc, is there an easy way to do this?
    Thanks

    The trick is to delete all bookmarks in Firefox first, then import from Safari.
    You will then have a complete duplicate in Firefox of what you have in Safari.

  • I want to have Logic 9 and X installed ( I want to keep my 32 bit plugs) - will X overwrite all my 9 prefs etc? Can I keep both installed?

    So, if I buy and download Logic X, will it overwrite my previous install of Logic 9? I really don't want that to happen and would prefer to have both installed so I can go back to old projects using 32 bit plugins and also start new projects in X.....
    Any tips or advice to avoid losing logic ? IS it as simple as just putting the logic app in a new folder called 'logic 9' or something?
    Really want to get X, but apprehensive.....

    As you can see, Logic X stores it preferences separately from Logic 9
    Hope that helps

  • I just purchased the new Nokia windows phone.  How do I delete an app that I installed but really don't want to keep?

    I just purchased the new Nokia windows phone.  How do I delete an app that I installed but don't want to keep?

    You are welcome! I played with the 928 in a Verizon store and really liked it. Besides the great camera and Nokia Maps, I'd be pretty excited about Nokia Music, too. As I understand it, this free app lets you create playlists from its entire music library, which can be stored on your device to listen to any time.
    There are a few members on the WP board who are really knowledgeable about Nokia and WP, so let us know if you have more questions.

  • We had one family apple id. I want to keep all devices on the same apple id for itunes but separate ones for everything else.  How do I change the others now.  We have 3 iphones and an ipad.

    We had one family apple id.  I want to keep all devices on the same apple id for itunes but separate for everything else on the cloud. How can I change the other apple ids now? We have 3 iphones and an ipad.

    Hi, thank you for this post.  I hope you might be able to help me too? 
    I am relatively new to apple (have an iPad) and having been a PC user for years I was pleasantly surprised with the apple experience and am now trying to work out the best set up for me, my husband and young son as I am buying them both of them apple products this Christmas.  New Mac laptop/ ipad for hubby and then an ipod touch for my son oh and a new mac laptop for me. We are also thinking of moving from Blackberries to iPhones. Yes we seem to be hooked! but i am unsure about the home family set up and how to replace my PC network that I run off an 8TB server.
    In reading the forums I keep seeing people talk about problems they have with two apple IDs and trying to merge them. I have also heard about a family ID allowing us to share apps legally.  I am really nervous of setting us up wrong and then having problems later and hence i am now looking for some advice on how to share as much as we can legally but also make usage practical and not invading each others privacy. thoughts so far:
    Music - I think we are happy to share the same music and access using one ID (we currently don't buy much music from apple but have lots of CDs we share).
    Photos - It would be nice to share photos - as long as my son or husband cannot accidentally delete photos of mine (which is my biggest concern). I currently load all camera photos onto my 8TB storage box as the network owner and my husband has full access to copy any photo to his laptop but can never delete the original copies by accident.
    Apps - If possible i would like us to share these but they are cheap enough these days to separate if really needed. Would be good to share licence for pages etc though
    cloud, contacts, facetime, email -  this is what is making me consider separate IDs or learning how to have multiple users in one apple ID - I do not want to have to share synced contacts with my husband. I have near 300 contacts now through work etc and he will not want them plus i will not want his or him being able to delete mine by mistake. and then for email and facetime, well I want to give him his privacy so I do not receive his messages etc. especially now that we are considering switching to iPhones
    Then last but not least, i don't know the best solution for my son. he is only 7 years old so even though I don't want to pay for things again I don't want him being able to download "just any" app from the purchased icon in Appstore. Also, is there a child friendly setting to prevent him from viewing inappropriate content on the internet?
    Appreciate I have asked a lot of questions here but I am looking for any genuine advice out there. Thank you or other potential advisers in advance.
