Safari billed as full web browser...but with no flash support!!!!!

No flash support for web browsing makes Safari a pseudo browser. I have already run into many many sites that use flash that can't be displayed. But I am still happy...just want flash support.

First of all, can you try to confirm it's just a affected user profile or it's the fault for mac operating system? Try creating a new user account, then open Safari, go to the website. See what happens from there. If the new user is able to access the website correctly, then it's most probably the previous user account is affected.
To try to resolve the affected account, you will need to locate the "com.apple.safari.plist & "org.mozilla.firefox.plist" files? It should be located somewhere in this folder ; user/Library/Preferences. Note : if the user account you are using is created as Trevor, then it's Trevor/Library/Preferences. Locate the files named "com.apple.Safari.plist" & "org.mozilla.firefox.plist". Delete and trash completely. Logout of the machine and re-login again. Open Safari, and try the affected website again. See if it resolves the issue now.
Another thing to check, is your internet configuration. Make sure you are not bypassing any proxy server, as you do not need to do any bypass of the proxy servers.
Keep me update, alright?

    I don't think that a software update from Apple will solve the issues that you are having. You have a rogue installation. After you posted I have just done the following:
    Disk Utility can verify  my partitioned Volume (including my boot disk) AND REPAIR the non-boot disks on the same Volume without a glitch. It repairs the non-boot disks containing data smoothly.
    I have used Mail to send some mails from some Yahoo and Hotmail accounts to my Thunderbird client containing GMail accounts - absolutely normal.
    I have iLife '09 but my iMovie '09 and iPhoto '09 open in a jiffy and I see no issues here. I have 6GB RAM (Maximum) on an early 2008 Macbook Pro with a 750GB hard drive partitioned with 120GB reserved for the Boot Drive.
    I am sorry that I cannot help further but I am sure there must be a way to reinstall the software without having to revert to restoring your ML backup. I have two clones and if you have such I would attempt to do that through that rather than through Time Machine - that is of course if you have a cloned drive.
    Good luck!

  • Can I use Safari as my main web browser and Firefox when Safari isn't supported?

    Can I use Safari as my main web browser and Firefox when Safari isn't supported?

    www.apple.com/support/safari
    Also use the User Agent and see if that works on those sitess.
    Safari keeps a lot of web history and cache on disk and it tends to be RAM hungry (even FF has gotten a big larger on RAM footprint)
    There are other browsers and sometimes Opea is a good choice or there is OmniWeb which I still after 10 yrs? still favor.

  • Safari and all other web browsers freeze with flash

    This is a recent problem. For some reason in the past 2 days safari has completely stopped working for me on normal websites with flash. For example whenever I go to espn.com safari will load about 95% of the page and then it freezes up. It worked perfectly up to 2 days ago. I tried to uninstall flash and reinstall the latest version. Didn't help. I tried to see that my version was the newest one sent out by apple (it is). I even tried using chrome and firefox. Not a single browser worked. I tried scanning my computer with mcafee to see if it found a virus. It found nothing. I don't know whats going on but its really getting annoying because I can't go to any of my usual sports websites. If anyone has encountered this and has a solution it would be really helpful.

    If you have a lot of tabs open and/or a lot of pages running Flash, Safari can sometimes 'hang', requiring a restart of Safari. This can often be inconvenient, and as it is rarely Safari itself that is hanging but merely one of its plug-ins, usually Flash, there is a way using Terminal to restart the plug-ins (without restarting Safari and losing your tabs) by quitting the WebPluginHost process:
    Open the Terminal from the Utilities folder in /Applications and type
    killall -9 WebKitPluginHost
    Note that this command kills all Safari plug-ins, not just Flash. All plug-ins should start back up when you reload the page.
    Then go back to Safari and refresh any pages that were using the Flash plug-in. This also fixes the Beachball of Death. Try this whenever Safari gets slow or freezes. The latest versions of Flash 10.1 appear to have improved the situation somewhat, but haven't completed eliminated it.
    I tried to see that my version was the newest one sent out by apple (it is
    That may NOT be the latest version.
    The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
    (You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

  • Open web browser but can't click

    I open my web browser to home page but nothing happens when I click on links or buttons.
    SImilar to a mouse that isn't connected or recognized.

    Turning blue would indicate that your device does recognize it as a hyperlink.
    You do have a BlackBerry Data Plan on your account... you do have a working browser on your device?
    Can you use the browser to open a site?
    My first suggestion is With the BlackBerry device powered ON, remove the battery a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to reboot.
    Then try it again.

  • OEM from a web browser problem with 8i

    I'm trying to run OEM via the web browser. I installed Oracle 8i EE (8.1.7) many months ago but cannot get these tools to run in a browser. When I enter the URL http://<machine>:3339/oem_webstage/emwebsite.html I am presented with the options to start OEM Console, DBA Studio or SQL Plus Worksheet. I enter the name of the Oracle Management Server, but when I click one of the OEM options on the page I get a dialog box asking me to Open or Save a file called "oemapp_cgi". The Oracle HTTP server is running fine on the server. I've installed Jinitiator okay.
    I noticed in some old documentation that it mentions the Oracle Application Server Listener. This doesn't appear in my list of Services in Control Panel on the server. It also mentions using "emwebsite start" and "emwebsite stop", but again, I can't locate any such program on the server. I inserted the installation CD again, but all components appear to be already installed.
    My client machine is running Win2000 SP2, IE5.0
    Thanks in anticipation!
    Darren

    Oracle managment server must be up and running to do so plus that you need to use Jinitiator Version 1.1.8.10 , I tried other versions but it dows not work.
    Use : http://localhost:3339

  • Why cant i download itunes on my windows 7 pc? i used to have it once but it was not updated for a while and got deleted...i have tried to download it on other web browser but all i got was "thanks for downloaing itunes" and nothing happened

    why cant i download itunes on my windows 7 pc? i used to have itunes on my pc once but it was not uploded for a while and got deleted...and now i have tried to download it and all i got was "thanks for download itunes"...after that i have tired to dwnload it from another web browser and ive got the same thing.....!!

    Perhaps try downloading and saving a copy of the installer to a different PC. (If you're on a 32-bit Windows system, try to download on a different 32-bit Windows system.) Copy the iTunesSetup.exe installer to an external hard-drive, or a large-enough thumb drive or burn it to a CD-R. Carry the installer back to your PC, copy the installer to your hard drive. (Don't run the install from the ExHD, thumb or CD-R.) Start the install by doubleclicking the iTunesSetup.exe file.

  • Is it possible to start a web browser from with xterm (X11)?

    Hello,
    Would it be possible to start a web browser from xterm? I am able to use for example, dbca or netca. But I want to know if I could start a web brower in my xterm. Thank you.

    Thank you. Firefox was not found on this redhat linux, I am guessing it was not installed. I did a find / -name firefox but not finding it. I don't think the SA installed GUI on this box. Is there a browser I can use even though GUI was not installed? That is why I am attempting to use xterm hoping to be able to access a brower in xterm. I am using Xming for xterm. Is there something in Xming I can use so I can access the Oracle Database Control Console? I can use firefox from my desktop but the port is block at the firewall and the SA would not open the port due to security reasons. Thank you.

  • Internet pages state I need to update my web browser, but I have updated my software multiple times.  Any suggestions?

    I consistently receive notices on certain webpages (LA Times, NY Times) that I need to update my web browser to see the entire website.  However, I have updated my software multiple times recently as a result of the messages.  I have Mac OSX 10.6.8 currently.  Can someone provide any guidance? 

    Please note the version of your computer's OS X now installed and see if
    that version is (or not) able to run the latest browsers available now...
    http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html
    The minimum requirements usually are posted along with the builder site
    in a link other than the download one.
    See if the Adobe Flash Player help pages can identify whatever Flash may
    be installed already; and before installing another, usually the older one
    has to be removed. Adobe has an uninstaller for that. See there are two
    links into Adobe Help for Flash player. The second one goes further to
    try & find an archived alternative to the latest Flash player, if needed.

    PS: was the notice to upgrade browser, a pop-up window over the web page you
    were looking at? Could be some adware, or other malware item is in your Mac.
    I do not see those kinds of prompts to upgrade anything in my Mac, and
    mine run an OS X older than your Snow Leopard 10.6.8. Visiting the same sites.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • I have Firefox web browser but I have lost the click on Firefox " button" at the top of the monitor screen and can't get it back. How do I do that?

    I have Mozilla Firefox as my web browser. However I have just lost my Firefox "button" on the top of my monitor screen and can't get it back. How do I do that?

    Hello andytuveson, right-click on an empty section of the Tab Strip and uncheck Menu Bar in the pop-up menu.

  • I am trying to get my application (e-qip )"We did not detect that your web browser supports 128-bit high encryption.Have trouble "Continue" button below, you will need to upgrade your web browser to a version that supports 128-bit encryption"

    I am trying to complete my TSA job application and it is a requirement to complete e-qip questions?

    That website is using an old method of checking the encryption level a web browser is capable of, it mentions Netscape 6.x/7 which are like from 6 to 7 years ago. It looks like they're checking for a '''U''' in the User Agent string. That particular letter in the UA goes back to the days of export controls for encryption software, but those controls expired over 15 years ago. That letter has been virtually meaningless since then. <br />
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Agent
    You can fool that website into thinking that you are using an older version of Firefox with this extension. <br />
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/user-agent-switcher/ <br />
    Use this for a custom UA string that should work there:<br /> '''Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.18) Gecko/20110614 Firefox/3.6.18'''
    Or just use IE for that one website.

  • Mozilla's SeaMonkey v2.0.14 web browser won't download Flash installers.

    Hi!
    I cannot seem to download any Flash installer files from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ if I am using the default user agent in Mozilla's SeaMonkey v2.0.14 web browser. If I change it to Firefox v3.6.8, then it will work. I never had this problem in the past so this looks like a bug in detecting web browsers.
    Thank you in advance.
