Safari and myspace

well when i sign in everything is fine but when i go look at bulletins and peoples pictures if they have cations they show up as &$ and the last letter at the end what's wrong with my safari?

One of my friends background picture (html photo) doesnt show up on my mac, but it shows up on my windows pc. It simply has a banner of the uploading site my friend used (saying some error jibberish "not available"). Any ideas? I do love Safari and the whole Apple gang... this is like the first year i bought any apple merchandise (ibook G4 and imac G5, apple video, and shuffle).

  • Safari and myspace/facebook/other sites. huge problems- Help

    So safari does not load pictures on myspace/facebook well. If a page is full of pictures it takes literally like a half hour to make them all come up. and if they dont, its the little infamous question mark
    whats with this?!
    I'm running safari beta now but I still have the problem
    It's bothering me and making me have OCD. help!
    Thanks

    Hi ..
    Might be a cookies, cache, or extensions issue.
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
    Click:  Remove All Website Data
    Then delete the cache.
    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that doesn't help, troubleshoot Safari extensions.
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

  • Safari and Myspace Login Issues

    Is anyone else having trouble with myspace lately? It will let me login, but if I go to view my friends or check notifications, it signs me out, redirects me to Myspace.com, and instructs me to "Log in to continue." By this point it will no longer let me log in unless I wait an hour or two, in which the process is repeated. I've seen that a good majority of Mac and Safari users are having this problem, as they have posted questions on websites such as yahoo answers. I've contacted myspace and have gotten nowhere. It's just really frustrating, because every time something like this happens windows users say "get a new computer" or "get firefox". Uhm....how about no? Your website should meet W3C website standards! Ugh, all I can say is this is why I prefer Facebook. But, is anyone else having this problem?

    HI,
    No problem with MySpace here. Try troubleshooting Safari.
    From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences (Command + ,) on your keyboard then select the Autofill tab. Click the Edit button next to: Other forms. Delete MySpace and click Done. Click the Edit button next to: User names and passwords. Delete MySpace then click Done. Now from the Preferences Menu Bar click the Security tab. Click: Show Cookies. Delete anything MySpace related, click Done.
    Now open Keychain Access (Applications/Utilities) Select Passwords on the left. Delete your MySpace keychain on the right. Quit Keychain Access. Relaunch Safari. Navigate to the MySpace website. Login with your username and password. You will prompted to save that data, click Yes.

  • Jumbled Text in Browsers (Safari & Firefox) - MySpace?

    Something odd is happening on my iBook, running Tiger, 10.4.10 - using Safari and Firefox ...
    On certain pages, especially MySpace Photos pages, the text is jumbled. Characters are replaced with signs like '$' and '&' ... screenshot here:

    Help?

    Jason, Try the following:
    1) Quit all open applications.
    2) If you have 'Helvetica Fractions', 'Times Phonetic' or 'Rougue Stencil-Type' fonts installed, delete them.
    3) Delete your fonts caches with *Font Finagler*, FontNuke or OnyX +(or with whatever utility you normally use)+
    *Font Finagler <http://homepage.mac.com/mdouma46/fontfinagler/> (this is the BEST application)*
    FontNuke <http://www.jamapi.com/pr/fn/>
    OnyX <http://www.titanium.free.fr/pgs/english.html>
    4) Restart your Mac
    5) Open your Font Book->Edit menu 'Select All' fonts - from the File menu select 'Validate Fonts'
    from the Edit menu select 'Resolve Duplicates'
    Good luck,
    Tom

  • Photobucket and Myspace

    All right guys, I've had this problem for sometime now, and it's finally gotten on my nerves.
    I have a MacBook that was purchased about a year ago. Everything works fine, best hardware I've ever bought. However, for some reason, Safari has a hard time displaying pictures; mainly pictures from forums, photobucket, and myspace.
    For example, say I search for "football" on photobucket. When the results page comes up, about two pictures appear, and then it takes FOREVER trying to load the pictures, then the program gives out and all I get are those blue boxes with the question mark in place of the pics.
    I have downloaded Camino and Firefox, and the problem persists. Like I said, my internet connection is fast, everything works great, but for some reason pics just won't show up. Any idea as to what the problem may be?

    Yeah here's some pics for ya:

  • Spinning beach ball of doom. Safari and Firefox.

    Just recently updated my mac to 10.6.2 and have been getting a lot of spinning balls of doom usually when I use Safari and Firefox. It comes up every time when I go to sites involving Flash like youtube, apps on Facebook, or music Myspace profiles. It would never go away so I always end up force quitting the browsers. As my default browser, I use Firefox. In version 10.6.1, there was rarely a spinning ball of doom. Once I updated to .2, then I noticed that Firefox would startup very slow and started having the problems so I ended up using Safari but the problem never goes away. I have to juggle around browsers to see if it would act normal but it was always the same. In about 3 hours of using my MacBook, I have Force Quitted Firefox about 4 times, and about the same if I use Safari. Is anyone experiencing this problem? What should I do? Is this the usual problem for version 10.6.2?

    By only reading your subject line I suspected Flash to be the culprit and you stated this yourself in your message. So I'm pretty sure you need to update your Flash version. Of course it's possible that you have other Internet Plugins installed which are incompatible with 10.6, but I'd start with updating Flash!

  • Safari and some websites dont work?

    Ok here, I sometimes want to visit a few websites that have people's profiles, such as the well known myspace. So when i enter myspace it seems to go fine untill i enter just a few people's profilesand then it looks like the page is loaded up, but it isn't, the little spin icon comes up and it just keeps going. Its not just with myspace though, there are a few pages i remember visiting that don't seem to want to come up. Please if anyone has experienced and fixed these problems please help me. Also maybe if someone knows how to use Spin Control to this advantage please tell me how to use it. Thank You

    Hi, Razvan, welcome to Apple's user-to-user discussion forums.
    Myspace is well known for horrible web design by its members. Safari is one of the least forgiving of browsers when it comes to bad code. You might want to try using Firefox for going to Myspace or other sites that Safari chokes on. Some sites are programmed using proprietary Windows-only technologies and you will have problems with those sites no matter what browser you use on a Mac.
    I have just randomly gone to various pages in Myspace using both Safari and Firefox and nothing has frozen up on me, but some pages took a long time to load in both browsers. I did not happen on some of the more extreme user pages I have seen, but I did get to some which were highly "creative".

  • My Yoville won't open in safari on myspace

    I had no problems with either my Imac or my macbook until I updated both. Now I have issues opening certain things such as my yoville application when I use myspace but not facebook. I also have had issues getting into my aol email account but I have at least fixed that, we'll see how long it lasts. I have reset safari and emptied my cache numerous times, I have made sure I had my cookies adjusted properly, my proxy sets automatically..... I am at a loss as to what to do next.

    I have no idea what 'yoville' is but I would suggest you ask its developers if they have produced an update that is Safari 4 compliant.

  • Safari and Firefox completely close on certain sites

    I'm having trouble with safari and firefox closing down(disappearing) when I visit certain sites including some myspace profiles. I can open them right back up, but they will just close again when i visit a site that they don't like. I looked at the crash logs, but there isn't anything from these apps. I don't even get an error message, window just disappears and no arrows under the icons. anyone have an idea on how to fix this? thank you...
    17" imac 2.0 C2D   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    It's odd that both browsers shut down. One thing I notice from your "More system details" is that you don't have the latest Flash player plugin, at least for Firefox. You can check your version and update here:
    http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    Hopefully that will help if the crashes are caused by Flash (e.g., rich media advertisements).

  • Hello, I've updated the iPhone I have got I have a problem I hope you respond to some of the applications no longer work, such as the safari and skype and many applications are no longer working with the ios7.0.4

    Hello, I've updated the iPhone I have got I have a problem I hope you respond to some of the applications no longer work, such as the safari and skype and many applications are no longer working with the ios7.0.4

    Standard troubleshooting...
    1. Try a Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the slider.  Slide to power off.  Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the Apple logo.
    2. Try a Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    3. Remove apps from Recently Used (multi-tasking) list...
    - From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
    - Swipe up on the app preview card to remove it from the list
    - Press the home button when done.
    4. If still a problem restore with your backup.
    5. If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
    6. If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

  • Problems with Mail, Safari and iTunes after updating to 10.5.6

    Hi all,
    after installing 10.5.6 I have problems with Mail, Safari and iTunes.
    The time to open mails, websides and iTunes store is increasing dramatically since the update. If I open a webside parallel with Safari and Firefox, Safari needs minimum 15 times longer to open the complete side. Mails containing HTML-code also needs a long time to be opened. Tha same Problem with iTunes store. Connecting to the Store costs at least 30 - 40 seconds. And unfortunately for every iTunes store side I open. Its terrible
    Any idea or workaroung to solve that problem?
    Regards
    Michael

    First, run Disk Utility and repair permissions and then restart.
    I installed the 10.5.6 Combo update. Sometimes things get "lost in the translation" when you use Software Update depending on your installation. Perhaps you can download 10.5.6 Combo from the website and install it from your desktop.

  • How to inspect web app using safari and ipad and USB cable?

    On my mac I have
    OSX 10.10.2 (14C109)
    Safari Version 8.0.3 (10600.3.18)
    On my Ipad 2 (MC769X/A) i have
    OS 8.1.3 (12B466)
    Safari Web Inspector "on"
    Javascript "on"
    There are no "privacy" or "private mode" settings that I can see.
    I physically connected my iPad to my Mac and chose that I trust this computer. Confirmed that it's connected by looking in iTunes (and quit iTunes afterwards).
    I opened a web app on my iPad that's running on my local server, and then opened safari on the mac.
    I then opened the Develop menu and can see the ipad. The menu does not contain any other entries other than "Use for development..."
    My mac also shows "No inspectable applications", whatever that means.
    If I choose "Use for development" under the iPad menu, nothing at all happens and the menu item disappears.
    To get the iPad sub-menu back again I have to quit Safari and then re-open it.

    I'm sorry I don't buy this as an answer because:
    it's for a question that is 2 years old and for older devices. My devices are all the latest version
    I have XCode and I'm a member of the develop program already.
    XCode does not offer a way to create a project or other pairing between safari on the mac and on the ipad, since that is a built in feature of Safari
    It works with IOS Simulator, but not with the actual device even when all correct steps have been followed to pair / connect them
    The problem I'm trying to resolve works in IOS Simulator but does not work on an actual device.

  • IPAD 4 screen flicker in App store as well as browsing via safari and vdownloader. I tried restore and reset, but still the same...

    Hi everyone,
    I just have my new Ipad4 last January 27, I noticed that while downloading a certain Apps in App Store then scrolling to look for more application, my screen would flicker like flashing or something blinking on it. I don't know what happened, why is it like that? Is it somewhat connected with hardware problem or does Ios 6 version still have a bug? I've tried using safari and other video downloader like vdownloader and I tried searching in youtube, still the same dilemma, it flicker also while browsing some video. Is it hardware problem? I already reset and restore my IPAD thou its a new one still the same dilemma happened again. What should I do? It was a gift for me and I'm really worried about it. Hope you could help me regarding it. Thank you so much.

    Not normal. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

    Oh my gosh I had the EXACT same problem, and for ages I couldn't figure out how to fix it until today. Here's what I did:
    First I went onto my computer, opened itunes, and un-installed tumblr, vine and kik. These were the apps I was having problems with (it said I had them on my phone but, like you, they didn't show).
    Then I went to the itunes store, searched for each one, and it said I could update them so I did (just FYI: for tumblr a window popped up saying "please click ok to confirm you are 17 years or older", so I did that also)
    When I went back to my phone and tried installing them again (still on my computer), it worked!
    I hope this helps, because it was incredibly frustrating. Good luck!

  • Problems with Safari and Firefox (HTTP?)

    Problems with Safari and Firefox (HTTP?)
    On a laptop G4, 10.5.8 and Safari 5.02 I experience the following:
    On the account of my oldest daughter everything works fine, i.e. wireless internet works and no problems with mail or safari.
    On the same laptop, on the account of my other daughter, the wireless is OK, she can mail etc. But safari nor firefox works. It says: can’t find server (whatever site) and in the activity window it looks if safari tries to open files (in the safari preferences-folder) in stead of http. Same applies to Firefox, so maybe it has more to do with HTTP in general?
    What goes wrong? What to do? I tried the following on the host terminal (tips from Apple)
    defaults write com.apple.safari WebKitDNSPrefetchingEnabled -boolean false
    and
    defaults delete com.apple.safari WebKitDNSPrefetchingEnabled
    but that did not help,
    Nanne

    I'm still wondering why it happens now at this moment in time...
    PC does seem to be a bit odd & inconsistent, the few times I've tested with it, at least so far as we content filtering goes; and if I remember rightly, you're not the first to report previously ok settings suddenly preventing some or all internet until pc is switched off altogether.
    It may work when re-enabled
