Safari 2.0.1 causing some unwanted issues

hey there Apple users...I've been having that spinning beach ball cursor alot lately, especially on some detailed web pages. I am a myspace freak and on some pages the beach ball cursor spins and spins and I have to force quit Safari. Another issue is that when I visit a site and there's content that requires Window's Media Player to view it the WMP file loads but Safari redirects me back to my previous page, whats up with that? I was hoping that this new version of Safari would solve these issues, but it doesn't look like its doing that.
Anyone have any advice on what to do? Or should I just switch to another browser?

Try going to your user>library>preferences folder and drag com.safari.plist to the trash. Take note before of your logins and passwords--you will need to reenter them after.
It solved my Windows Media Player problem, and it beats reinstalling the system or switching browsers--that is, if it works for you.
Good luck--

  • XFi-2- Latest firmware (1.20.08) has caused some issues on 32GB model...

    HXFi-2- Latest firmware (.20.08) has caused some issues on 32GB model... When I started my PC last night, it notified me that new firmware was avaliable so it downloaded it and installed it on my Xfi-2 32GB
    According to the release notes, it was to add support for the 64 GB model as well as some general improvements.
    I can't determine what the latest improvements were (anyone have any clues ) and the UI seems the same.....the only things that have changed are that my applications no longer work (when I go into the applications shortcut, it says there is no valid content: I haven't touched these folders etc and they are still populated with the three standard apps as far as I can tell)
    The other thing (which may not be related to the firmware upgrade) is that my photos shortcut now pulls up some of my music folders that contain album art. Is this a feature or a bug (I don't want it to happen, I just want it to show photos within the 'photos' folder on the device).... I think it may have been caused by me simply dragging and dropping music folders onto the device using windows explorer rather than going through Centrale (slow!)
    Cheers

    Hi Timmo.
    What release notes are you reading? I have seen no reference to improvements other than adding support for the new 64 GB model on this firmware version. From the description of the problems you have, it seems that your player has some sort of file system corruption on the internal flash. I would suggest reinstalling the firmware on your device after formatting it (formatting the device only should be enough, I think).
    The size of the new firmware release, double than the size on the previous one, means that it probably has new features and applications that will be enabled on the future; however I doubt it means it has new features right now and hope it does not means we have two firmwares (on for the 64 GB model and other for the previous ones) as the SRM/AlphaBIOS pair on the Digital Alpha systems (an ugly hack on these superb computers, in my humble opinion) -- by the way, the new firmware does not require more space on the internal flash (I have 5077 MB available on mine with all firmware releases).
    The behavior you describe about album art being shown on the photos shortcut happens with older firmware releases too; I prefer album art embedded on the audio files instead of being available as another file. I agree with you, only pictures under the photos directory should be shown as images.
    Cheers.

  • Having issues with low memory that is causing some of my apps to crash, need help please !!!

    Having issues with low memory that is causing some of my apps to crash, need help please !!!

    Is the device actually showing low memory errors?
    What is really occurring?
    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Has any of this been tried?

    My iphone 4s has some serious issues. After clicking some youtube link, my photos, settings icon, app store icon and safari icon and many more apps have been deleted. My iphone is useless since last 4 weeks. I cant do anything without these missing apps. please help.

    If it was just my router then my own network would kick in wouldn't it?
    No.  Not even sure what you mean by that.  The phone is trying to access particular IP addresses on the internet, which don't exist on "my own network."
    plus all my internet items at home running on my wifi are doing fine
    No again.  The fact that your router works with other devices doesn't mean it's compatible with the iPhone.  Did you even try restarting and updating the router as suggested?

    Fix Some Browser Pop-ups That Take Over Safari.
    Common pop-ups include a message saying the government has seized your computer and you must pay to have it released (often called "Moneypak"), or a phony message saying that your computer has been infected, and you need to call a tech support number (sometimes claiming to be Apple) to get it resolved. First, understand that these pop-ups are not caused by a virus and your computer has not been affected. This "hijack" is limited to your web browser. Also understand that these messages are scams, so do not pay any money, call the listed number, or provide any personal information. This article will outline the solution to dismiss the pop-up.
    Quit Safari
    Usually, these pop-ups will not go away by either clicking "OK" or "Cancel." Furthermore, several menus in the menu bar may become disabled and show in gray, including the option to quit Safari. You will likely have to force quit Safari. To do this, press Command + option + esc, select Safari, and press Force Quit.
    Relaunch Safari
    If you relaunch Safari, the page will reopen. To prevent this from happening, hold down the 'Shift' key while opening Safari. This will prevent windows from the last time Safari was running from reopening.
    This will not work in all cases. The shift key must be held at the right time, and in some cases, even if done correctly, the window reappears. In these circumstances, after force quitting Safari, turn off Wi-Fi or disconnect Ethernet, depending on how you connect to the Internet. Then relaunch Safari normally. It will try to reload the malicious webpage, but without a connection, it won't be able to. Navigate away from that page by entering a different URL, i.e. www.apple.com, and trying to load it. Now you can reconnect to the Internet, and the page you entered will appear rather than the malicious one.

  • I am having some serious issues with firefox, i can't print anything because it is stuck on fax and I can't use any of the drop down menus on any site

    I am having some serious issues with firefox to the point of choosing another search engine. I can't print anything because it is stuck on fax and won't let me change it to my printer when i do try to select my printer it jumps right back to fax. The drop down menus do not work on any of the sites I go to. For example when purchasing clothes and you have to choose a size from a drop down menu I can't do it when I click on the drop down menu it doesn't work at all. I don't have a virus I ran my virus protector and no viruses are present. I don't have any suspicious issues going on with my computer so there has to be something in Firefox that is causing my issues. I tried internet explorer and I don't have any issues there. I hope you can help me because I love Firefox and would really like to continue to use it.

    Lots of issues there, main one getting fcpx going again, try deleting the preferences using the utility deveoped by these guys.

  • " plug-in name does not support the highest level of security for Safari plug-ins" appear for some plugins in Safari Security "Manage Website Settings"?

    Hi,
    Wondering why "<plug-in name> does not support the highest level of security for Safari plug-ins" appear for some plugins in Safari > Security > "Manage Website Settings"?
    Have been trying to get to the root cause of the problem but did not find much on this. I am trying to figure out what can get the warning to go away completely than using the Allow/Always Allow options for the plug-in
    Thanks,
    Shyam

    Hi Linc,
    Thank you for your response. Here is the screenshot of the warning that I am talking about.
    Here is what I do:
    1. Launch Safari and open its Preferences. I have Safari 7.1 installed on my machine.
    2. Click Security Tab and click Manage WebSite Settings
    3. A window opens showing me all the Plug-ins that I have (listed on the left hand side).
    4. One of them is the Adobe Reader plug-in. When I click Adobe Reader, the following details about the plug-in show up on the right
    I was referring to the highlighted section that warns me about this plug-in not using the highest level of security for Safari Plug-ins.
    Note: I do not see this for all my plug-ins (QuickTime, Adobe Flash Player don't give me this warning) which tells me that there is a way to make the warning go away.
    Thanks again,
    Shyam

  • I can not open my Safari. It quits unexpectedly. The issue happens with a single user account. It does not happen to anyone else in my family. Please help.

    I can not open my Safari. It quits unexpectedly. The issue only happens to a single user account. It does not happen to anyone else in my family. Please help!

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
    Step 1
    Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Post the messages from the time of the last crash, if any — the text, please, not a screenshot.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.
    Step 2
    Still in the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the process. The report name starts with the name of the crashed process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

  • PS CS2 lens correction causes "Maximize Compatibility" issue in LR

    Question: why does PS CS2/3 convert the layer "Background" to "Layer 0"?
    This is the problem (and solution):
    I encountered the widely discussed "Maximize Compatiblity" issue with a bunch of PSD files (slide scans) that contained only one layer. Puzzled as I was that the layer thing apparently could not cause the problem, I reopened some of those files in PS CS3 and I noticed that each of them had had a lens correction. Just to make sure I was on the right track I applied a lens correction to a file that had been already imported into LR successfully and used the SaveAs command and unchecked the Maximize Compatibility option. The new file could not be imported into LR. So no more lens corrections? - I thought.
    A closer look on the troublesome files made me learn the (only) layer had been renamed from "Background" to "Layer 0" after the lens correction was made. I used the "Flatten Image" command and this turned it back into "Background". After this, the file could be imported into LR without a problem.
    I can now apply this trick to all troublesome files that have had lens corrections and thus avoid the huge increase in file size (130MB is a lot already).
    Now I write this for those of you who have the same problem and are still puzzled (to help out) but I also would like to have some insight into why PS CS2/3 lens corrections mess with the layers.
    Thanks.

    >My conclusion would be that LR can only import PSD files that meet the following requirements:
    >1. must contain only one layer
    >2. that layer must be called "Background"
    Your conclusion is only partially correct.
    Lightroom will import multi-layered PSD files that have been saved with the preference for "Maximize PSD and PSB File Compatibility" set to On. This is clearly stated in the Release Notes and Help documents:
    >Photoshop format (PSD)
    >Photoshop format (PSD) is the standard Photoshop file format. To import and work with a multi-layered PSD file in Lightroom, the file must have been saved in Photoshop with the Maximize PSD and PSB File Compatibility preference turned on. Youll find the option in the Photoshop file handling preferences. Lightroom saves PSD files with a bit depth or 8 bits or 16 bits per channel.
    As to the original point -
    PS CS2 lens correction causes "Maximize Compatibility" issue in LR.
    Photoshop renaming Background Layer to Layer 0 is a Photoshop issue, not Lightroom. When it occurs the files effectively becomes a multi-layered file, even if there is only one layer (i.e layer 0). Why using the Lens Correction filter causes the background layer to be renamed is currently unclear, but I have raised it in the "appropriate" place. In the meantime, I recommend that you set the Maximise Compatibility preference to
    Always. Doing so will save non layered files as normal and multi-layered will have the
    necessary* composite preview. You can continue to use the flatten command to fix the errant files.
    *Enabling the Maximise Compatibility preference ensures that Photoshop creates a composite preview of multi-layered images. It is intended to enable applications that can't read layers to preview the images. Lightroom cannot read multi-layered files, therefore the composite preview MUST be present in such files.
    >Has anyone noticed different behaviour with the Lr v2 beta? I'd hate to double the size of all my multilayer PSDs just so they can load into Lr(?)
    Lr 2.0 will function as per Lr1.x; i.e. not using Maximize Compatibility when saving multi-layered files will mean that they are not compatible with Lr2.0.

  • Toshiba USB Sleep and Charge causes s3 wake issues

    Toshiba Satellite P500-ST6844
    PSPGSU-0Q2012
    Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 x64
    I have posted before about an issue with my laptop not waking from sleep properly, (see here)
    basically my problem is this:
    I put the laptop to sleep and everything appears to go normally. but when i go to wake the system up, the Toshiba boot logo is shown, and i have lost my windows session. the system acts like it is cold booting, except for a 30 second pause following the boot logo. Just to be clear, once my windows is up and running again my session is not restored, so my system has not gone into hibernation.  this issue does not affect hibernation mode. Hibernation mode works perfectly. Only taking out the battery and unplugging the machine and then pressing the power button for 30 secs. seems to alleviate the issue. but the issue always seemed to return. after much trial and error, I have narrowed down the cause of the issue. if the Toshiba USB Sleep and charge feature is used, the sleep problem is triggered, even if the sleep and charge port is not being used. This issue occurs even in a clean state (clean from a factory restore using restore media). this sleep issue has been occurring since i bought the laptop in 2010, but it has been only in the last 2-3 months that i have been able to narrow down the exact trigger for the issue.
    I have updated to the latest version of the sleep and charge app for my laptop, but this does not seem to help any. the issue does not seem to be triggered by just activating or deactivating the USB sleep and charge feature in bios, but using/configuring the sleep and charge feature using the Toshiba application in windows, does. 
    I don't know if this is indicative of a bios, software, utility, hardware, or power supply issue. I am hoping some one here might have an answer for me, or at least point me in the right direction on where i can go from here.

    this behavior even occurs in a "factory fresh state" - (restored from OS recovery media). In that state, only toshiba stuff is installed..
    Sounds like you found a bug.

  • Safari 2.0.1 caused network errors

    After updating to the latest version of Safari yesterday, my Mac can no longer access the internet at all - it worked fine up to the point where I downloaded and installed the latest version, but after I restarted no sites load at all from anywhere, and no other internet connections work either (Firefox, Dashboard, Mail etc. etc., none work after the update).
    I use an ADSLnation X-Modem plugged into an AEBS, and there's no problem with either of those. The X-Modem diagnostics indicate that the connection to the ISP is working normally as it was before the update, and the AEBS has had no problems either. I haven't got the latest Airport 4.2 update installed on my AEBS, as it caused some problems with my laptop when I had 10.3.9 installed.
    However, Network Diagnostics in 10.4.2 claims the ISP cannot be found, despite the ADSL modem diagnostics showing that the connection is working fine. I've tried restarting the X-modem, AEBS and my PB G4, but to no avail. And I would hate having to reinstall Tiger to get it to work again.
    I would appreciate any tips or advice!

    I had a similar problem the other day after upgrading QT to the Pro version. I tried to let the Network Diagnostics Assistant help me and that caused the real problem - after trying that I couldn't connect to anything. I booted into another partition and everything worked fine, but my main partition wouldn't work even after using Disk Utility and Disk Warrior. So I reset all my network settings according to my ISP's instructions and everything worked after that. I can't explain why I had the problem or why resetting everything solved it, but you might want to try setting up a new location and inputting all your network settings into that location.
    Good luck.
