Safari 4.1.3 quits at SSL(?) drop down boxes

Hi. I posted this in the Safari area, couldn't get a response, thought I'd try here.
I am maxed out at OSX 10.4.11 and safari 4.1.3 on an old G4.
Just yesterday Safari repeatedly malfunctioned when accessing secure (SSL?) site drop-down boxes while trying to pay utility bills online. The boxes drop down, the desired selection can be highlighted, but when the cursor is lifted, the change is NOT made, the beach ball spins, Safari quits. Every time. On several different sites. Data can be entered in the blank spaces, but using the drop-down boxes results in a stall, then quit.
These type of tasks were accomplished as recently as the day before. Other Safari functions (browsing, youtube etc) seem to work. Firefox works in all areas.
Any ideas?
Attached a grab, just in case I'm mis-identifying anything. I'm entirely unfamiliar with secure sites, other than using them. What I call a drop-down box are labeled "Any", "0", "no maximum" on the grab.
Now Safari is starting to occasionally quit elsewhere, including this slow-loading site.
Boot / Restart doesn't seem to help. Have done routine Repair Permissions on HD, seemingly not needed.
Tried Reset Safari. No change.
Also emptied InputManagers folder. No change.
Tried trashing any "com.apple.safari.xxx.plist." files I could find in any Library>Preferences. Original problem persists and Safari now running discernibly slower.
Would simply re-installing Safari help? If so, is there any uninstall needed, or other steps to take? Any secret hidden folders that need to be trashed?
Will bookmarks be retained with a simple re-install?
Thanks in advance.

Nope, not a secure site in anyway, it works here, and after looking at what it uses I suspect maybe Java Script.
Here's the things it loads...

Is their a way to restore "empty cashe" in the Safari drop down box

Is their a way to restore "empty cashe" in the Safari drop down box? My Mac just had the hard drive replaced and I noticed that the "empty cashe" feature is missing.

Safari>Preferences>Advanced. Check Show develop menu in the menu bar. Empty the cache from there.

Network settings drop down box won't go away without force quit.

When I click on network settings for any reason a drop down box appears that says "Your network settings have been changed by another application". The only option given is to click "OK". When I click "OK" the box goes up and immediately comes back down, over and over again. It will not go away until I force-quit system preferences. Any Ideas what's going on?

Hi Clyde,
To stop the pop-up, Go to System Preferences: Security. Check the box next to "Require password to unlock each secure system preference." Then lock Security.
Try this cure for Security update...

Safari drop down box.

When I log on to my MSN homepage and click on a news story, when I click out of the story and back to my MSN homepage a drop down box appears with the following message: "Are you sure you want to send a form again? T reopen this page Safari must resend a form." I must click "send" before I can open another news story. How do I stop this?

Does the web page have some kind of navigation link you can use instead of using Safari's "back" button?

When ever I leave a site a drop down box appears " Are you sure you want to send form again?" " To re-open this page Safari must resend a form, this may sesult in duplicate purchases, comments, or other actions". It does it twice every time? *** is this?

When ever I leave a internet site an Apple drop down box appears that says,
" Are you sure you want to send form again?", " To Re-open this page Safari must resend a form. "This action might result in duplicate purchases, comments, or other actions".
The box has two options,... "Send", or " Don't send",...
I always hit the don't send button.
It always drops down twice now when it used to only drop down once.
*** is going on with that?

If anyone has a way of stopping Safari from doing this I'd appreciate the "how to".
I am on a website that has phpbb installed and when I do a search for new posts it shows them to me.
When I click on a post that I wish to read it shows me that post but if I hit back the server is set up to not allow multiple searches within a short time and the page returns "you cannot submit another search in such a short time".
If I understand what you're describing, that's a function of the phpbb forum, not something Safari is doing or can change.
A suggestion: Instead of just clicking on the posts you want to read, I would Command-click to open them in new tabs. Your page of search results will remain open in the first tab, so when you're finished reading the posts, you can close their tabs and return to your list of search results.

Drop down boxes like the ones used for dates don't work and hav'nt work for quite a while. What's going on?

Drop down boxes have not worked for the last few revisions of
Firefox. I've tried eliminating all add ons etc. bit to no avail. It does
not seem like this should be such a big problem to fix, since these
objects used to work fine in the past. I really like Firefox otherwise
and would hate to have to resort to another browser. The drop down box shown below does not work either, but that may be due to lack of content.

Yes, I've disabled everything. Even changed Windows 7 Themes, but no luck.
After sending this reply, it occurred to me that Actual Window Guard might be
the problem. When I excluded the Firefox window from Actual Window Guard
control the drop down boxes worked. Wish I would have thought of it sooner. Thanks to everyone who made suggestions and tried to help. I really do appreciate your time and effort.

Unable to delete photos from my desktop , I get a drop down box with continued blue/ white bars - now 6 hours

Having dragged 8 photos onto my desktop from iphoto for the purpose of easy addition to an email , I now find that when I dragged them to the Trash bin , they fail to delete.
I get a drop down box with continued blue/ white bars , stating "moving to trash " .
It's now 6 hours and I cannot stop either. Tried to shut down my computer and reboot but it won't let me . I tried turning the power off , but the problem remains .
Any help would be welcome.

Hey !
I have found the solution myself !!!
Go ..... Apple in the toolbar - Force quite - select finder - then relaunch .
Brilliant

Drop-down box population

I have tried to research this situation through the forums, but all the answers I've found are ... not quite 'it'.
I'm working in a relatively small company, producing forms to automate a good deal of the workflow. ( I used to be a Notes Dev and Admin, back in the day, so I'm very familiar with workflow and automating forms but this company is small enough that a lot of the backend processing is ... missing or in 'long term development'.) I have an expense report type form where I need to be able to have the users select the type of expense from a drop down box to start their line items, and then use the other kinds of fields to fill in the other data. However, the drop-down needs to be at least vaguely dynamic as specific projects/work details come on and get removed. Managing more than a dozen lines by hand is tedious and annoying.
Is there any way to popluate a drop down box's list with a hidden field on the form? It would save me a LOT of trouble if I could enter the data into a multi-line field and have the form auto-populate with that data instead. Barring that, is there a 'fast' way to clear out a list for a drop-down field without using the little minus sign to remove each item individually?
Many, many thanks in advance.

I know this is a over a year old, but I needed to populate a drop down list with over 400 entries, so I downloaded the above form and it would not hold enough entries. So I edited it and made the file 100 inches long and it had more than enough room for my entries I needed. It may well hold almost 1000 entries, I did not check. but here is a link to the longer form for those of you who need to enter many more entries.

Thanks to George Johnson for the wonderful first edition that has work well for many I am sure. This is his form only much longer to allow more entries.

CRASH REPORT Product: Adobe Photoshop CC Application running on: Apple iMac 3.5GHz / Mavericks 10.9.2 Application crashes without warning. . Symptom: Drop down boxes go blank white (I shot screen captures of blank drop down boxes) and application

CRASH REPORT
Product: Adobe Photoshop CC
Application running on:
Apple iMac 3.5GHz late 2013 / Mavericks 10.9.2
Application crashes without warning. Symptom: Drop down boxes go blank white (I shot screen captures of blank drop down boxes) and application stops working, actions for appox. 10 minutes preceding crash are lost. Force Quit required to quit unresponsive / frozen application and then Restart of Adobe Photoshop CC
Crash Frequency: Three time in this work day, 5.6.14 Once a day sporadically (approximately 10 times) in past two weeks.
Other applications running at time of crashes: Adobe Bridge - NOT effected. Computer was on line with no browsers open.
Otherwise computer continued to operate normally.
I have been using Adobe Photoshop CC for approximately two months.

Thanks, Chris,
I hope that this is the solution.
re: "And a crash report without an actual crash report (a long, detailed text document available from the crash report dialog), is not all that useful" :
I did in deed submit a homemade crash report.
I would have submitted "an actual Crash Report " and sooner, but: When this event occurs. there are NO dialog boxes. All frozen / blank. No possibility of "actual crash report" !
Thank you!

Third party Certificate not showing up in SQL configuration manager drop down box

Hi,
I have an SQL instance that needs to use a third party SSL certificate for all communications to that SQL instance. I have installed my third party certificate via MMC and it is showing under the Personal Folder.
However, when i go into the SQL configuration manager and right click the instance name > Properties > Certificates, it is not showing in the drop down box.
I am currently using MS SQL Server 2008 R2, which is installed on Windows Server 2012.

Hi,
If the certificate cannot be used for SQL Server and hence will not be visible in SQL Configuration manager. Check the validity of the installed certificate. It may not has the correct DNS name.
I suggest you request a new third party certificate from the vendor with the correct DNS name. Install it on SQL Server environment, then you should see certificate form the configuration manager dropdown box.
Thanks.

Cannot change Email Preference in Drop Down Box

All my software is up to date on Snow Leapord. I use AOL Desktop for accessing my email and it is the most current AOL Desktop for Mac 1.7.722 (722). I just did the desktop upgrade 2 weeks ago.
I can no longer send pictures through AOL.
When I go to iPhoto preferences > General > the drop down box next to "Email photos using: has "Mail" highlighted. I cannot choose anything else. They are all greyed out (AOL, Eudora and Microsoft Entourage). I don't use Eudora or Entourage so they don't matter to me, but all 3 cannot be used. I have tried everything to get it to recognize AOL but it does not.
I called AOL and they had me unistall every AOL application and file on the computer and reinstall the new AOL desktop again but this did not work either. They said it was not their problem and must be with Apple and iPhoto.
When I called Apple (I have Apple care), they gave me a work around to send photos to the desktop and then attach to an AOL email, They could not help me otherwise, but I would rather use it the way I used to. Why won't it allow me to pick AOL (Which is shown in the drop down)
Can anyone give me help.

A good general step for strange issues is to renew the iPhoto preference file - quit iPhoto and go to "your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist and trash it - launch iPhoto which creates a fresh new default preference file and reset any personal preferences you have changed and if you have moved the iPhoto library repoint to it. This may help
This does not affect your photos or any database information (keywords, faces, places, ratings, etc) in any way - they are stored in the iPhoto library - the iPhoto preference file simply controls how iPhoto works - which is why renewing it is a good first step.
also note that you probably can select the photo(s) and drag them to the AOL Desktop icon in the Dock to create your e-mail
I just did the desktop upgrade 2 weeks ago.
I can no longer send pictures through AOL.
To me this clearly says that the issue is AOL desktop since it worked until you upgraded and after upgrading does not

"iOS Photos" album missing from Facebook drop down box

I have an iPhone 5S running iOS 7.0.4. I want to post a Photo from the Camera Roll to Facebook. I tap on a Photo in Camera Roll and choose FaceBook. The Album field defaults to one of my existing Albums at the top of the list. When I scrool down through the list the iOS Photos album doesn't appear. Therefore any photo I upload via the Photo App appears on Facebook under a specific Album not Mobile Photos or iOS Photos. How do I get iOS Photos to appear at the top of the drop down box?
Many Thanks!

Is remember passwords still enabled?
*Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: "Remember passwords for sites"
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
