Safari 5.1.2 cannot zoom in on entire web page

I upgraded to Safari 5.1.2 the other day and ever since, when I zoom in on a web page, only some text enlarges while the overall page sizing remains the same. This is quite annoying since zooming in at certain levels will cause some text to overlap other, fixed text. Is there any way I can go back to a previous version of Safari or fix this defect?

Hi ...
Are you using Command + to enlarge the entire page, not just text?
And check your setting in System Preferences > Universal Access - Seeing
You can Zoom Text Only from the Safari > View menu.

I updated to os x 10.8.5 today and now I cannot publish changes to my web page through iweb. iweb crashes every time I try to publish

I updated to os x 10.8.5 today and now I cannot publish changes to my web page through iweb. iweb crashes every time I try to publish

First do the following:
1 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iWeb's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain 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.
Next, in Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
To open your domain file in Lion or Mountain 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
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that 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.
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.

HT1338 hi, my firefox and safari are both having difficulty loading certain parts of web pages. previous to this my firefox would freeze and state that a script was not responding. i would stop the script and reload the page and everything would be fine.

hi, my firefox and safari are both having difficulty loading certain parts of web pages. previous to this my firefox would freeze and state that a script was not responding. i would stop the script and reload the page and everything would be fine. now though the pages just load very very slowly or load leaving out certain pictures and video content. i've tried clearing my cache's and cookies, resetting my browser etc, but it seems like its a system issue as both safari and firefox are having issues. i've run Avast to screen for malware and it came up empty. any suggestions?

10.4.8's been a pain for Networking... not sure of all the reasons though, or whether all the complaints might not be MS working around Bugs/Non-compliance, but at this point I think you should get Applejack...
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19596
After installing, boot holding down CMD+s, then when the prompt shows, type in...
applejack AUTO
Then let it do all 5 of it's things.
Fixes a lot of problems, and besides, if your Mac ever gets to the point it won't Boot... this is a life saver!
After you run that... let's see where we are.

Recently downloaded Mac OS X Mavericks and Safari has become noticeably less responsive; slow to load web pages. Also, when Safari is open, the Finder randomly comes to the front. Any ideas?

Recently downloaded Mac OS X Mavericks and Safari has become noticeably less responsive; slow to load web pages. Also, when Safari is open, the Finder randomly comes to the front. Any ideas?

In fact, I am runing some plug-ins: ClickToPlugin (Flash blocker), Collusion and Disconnect.
There is quite a history of new versions of Safari breaking third-party plug-ins/extensions becasue the plug developer did not have an updated version available by the time the new Safari version dropped. What you report--worked fne before but won't now--is exactly what history says happens in such a case.
First, turn off all third-party stuff and see if Safari smooths out. Alternatively, create a new user account and, from there, test Safari in its native state with nothing added. That is a good diagnostic to see if the issue is a plug or extension.
If either of those helps, check for updates to the add-ons. If the developer is slow in reacting to the updated Safari version, (not unheard of), stop using that extension until an update is available.

Cannot Make PDFs of many web pages

Mac running Tiger. I have the latest Firefox. This has been happening for many versions of Firefox, tho. I cannot always make full page pdfs of certain web pages. Safari has no problem giving me the full page but Firefox truncates. Asked friends on Snow Leopard who tell me they experience the same problem so this isn't o/s related. I am giving you a single link as an example but this happens on MANY sites.

That problem can be caused by the Yahoo! Toolbar that extents too much downwards and covers the top part of the browser window and thus makes links in that part of the screen not clickable.

Cannot click on anything on web page

Hello - I'm having trouble with my Safari and wondering if anyone can help.
The top of my screen where the web address is has a normal background. I can typ in a web address and it will take me there. However, once the page is loaded, I cannot click on anything on the page, other than putting in another web address. Also, the backgrond below the web address bar is all light grey.
Anyone have or seen this problem before?
Thanks!

Recently, the Yahoo Toolbar and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause that problem. They seem to overlap invisibly over the top of the web page display. If you have either or both, uninstall or disable them/it, or see if an update is available that solves the problem.

Safari on iPod touch will no longer open any web pages even after reset.

My iPod touch will no longer open any web pages via Safari. I am connected to WiFi and other apps work fine (mail for example). I connected to Itunes and did a reset - still no luck. S/w is up to date for this version of touch - 4.x.
Please help with any ideas?

Safari (and other browsers) very slow loading "content rich" web pages

Hi,
I'm a very "light" user of my mac, using it basically for surfing the web, uploading pictures and music, etc... and recently any web page that has a lot of content (examples are nfl.com, nba.com, nhl.com, mlb.com, united.com, continental.com) takes a very long time to load (most other web pages load normally). Safari (and Firefox as well) gets to the web page in an instant, but then sits there trying to load content (mostly high res pictures and ads I suppose), which sometimes takes minutes or just never fully downloads the content. I'm connected to the internet via ethernet (high speed cable modem from Time Warner), and they've already come out and verified that everything on their end is fine. I've followed the instructions posted on some of the other similar posts (emptying cache, deleting cookies, disenabling add on's, reseting safari, logging in as another user, etc..), and this has not helped. Since this problem is persistent with both browsers, I'm wondering if this may be an OS issue as opposed to a browser issue. If someone can walk me through a solution (keep in mind that I'm a novice), that would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

HI and welcome....
Since this problem is persistent with both browsers, I'm wondering if this may be an OS issue as opposed to a browser issue
Could be.
Since the problems exist with multiple browsers, login to another user account on your Mac. Try Safari there. If you see the same behavior with Safari there, then follow the instructions here. You will need your install disc. The startup disk may need repairing. Even if Safari is ok in another account, it's still a good idea to check the startup disk. That way you can rule that out.
Insert your install disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
Go to Installer menu and launch Disk Utility.
(In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first from the installer menu)
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
(Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
Select your startup disk and click Restart
While you have the Disk Utility window open, look at the bottom of the window. Where you see Capacity and Available. Make sure there is always 15% free space.

*.pages and *.key cannot be shown on the web page

I upload an a.KEYNOTE file which is quite alright on my local computer to the server (3.1.2). After successfully uploading, the web page keeps trying to display the file, but no stopping, just trying. Strangely, the name could be correctly displayed, just content keeps waiting.
But if I upload an a.PAGES file to the sever, the name is switched to a.PAGES.zip. Of course, the PAGES file cannot be displayed on the screen, just like the KEYNOTE file mentioned above, waiting and waiting, non-stop!
I reviewed many treads on the forum trying to find answers, but failed. A similar question like a a.PAGES.zip situation was found in a thread, but no one replies it.
So anyone had the same problem could tell me what's going on? And how to fix this problem?
Thanks in advance.

Safari 4.0.3 can no longer open secure web page...

Our business uses the following on-line platform login page which we've used for years...
https://trading.insigniafutures.com/
Since updating to Safari 4.0.3, we can no longer access this page. When we try, we get a blank white screen and then Safari downloads a file "trading.dll.html" to the desktop. This error occurs on all of our 7 Macs we have, from Mac Pros to Mac Books.
Now we are forced to use Firefox (which handles the web page with no problem) which we really don't care for. We prefer to use Safari.
Anyone know of a fix for this?
TIA
Joe

HI,
Open Keychain Access (Applications/Utilities).
Select Passwords on the left. Then on the right delete this file: com.trading.insigniafutures.com
Then from the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences and select the AutoFill tab. Make sure usernames and passwords is selected.
Try accessing that site now. If that doesn't help then go here and try Safari Maintenance
