Safari doesn't support WYSIWYG features in forums

Twice now I've had to resort to using Firefox when I wanted to make use of the WYSIWYG editing tools in forum message groups. For instance, if I want to add formatting to a blog in Blogger, or a picture to a message I'm posting in istockphoto, the editing tools to accomplish that simply don't show up in Safari. To give you a better idea of this, in istockphoto when you go to respond to someone's post, you'll find an entire row of useful tools for making life simple. Want to display a photo in your post? Hit the camera icon and add the appropriate image number (not a link.) The image appears directly in the message you're posting. But those tools don't show at all in Safari. Same thing happens in Blogger.
Anyone else familiar with this issue, or have a workaround? I sent feedback to Apple, but it'll probably be forever before a fix is made.

This really suxx...! I love Safari and can't use it because it's unable to deal with WYSIWYG editors as in Wordpress, Blogger, Yahoo Mail and so on...!! So I'm forced to use Firefox, which I don't like half as much...but which gets the job done...
That is the only glitch in Safari for me -- but a major one...!
From what I've heard the problem is, that Safari or Webkit respectively is too "strict" and thus the WYSIWYG editor toolbars don't show up...!? I seems that in order to implement such WYSIWYG editors the code has to be tweaked or so and most other non-Webkit browsers seem to allow that kind of behaviour, but Safari does not...!?
Anyway, WYSIWYG editors on the web have become so common that Apple really should look into this subject...or more and more Wordpress etc. users will just (have to) switch to Firefox or Camino or Flock or...

Internet plug in that Safari doesn't support

Ouestion. Brand new Mac OSX 10.4 Not able to open Internet programmes,
keep getting Safari doesn't support. Have tried ticking the Rossett box in Safari
with no results. I had no trouble with G4 laptop with Panther. Would appreciate some help , thanks sarsfield

Hi,
You need to install additional plug-ins for Safari to work with RealPlayer or Windows Media video streams.
Flip4Mac (for Windows Media playback)
Real Player (free download link in the top right hand corner)
Note that Flip4Mac is not yet a Universal Binary so you will need to continue running Safari in Rosetta mode for that to work correctly.
If you're still having problems after installing those, please post the website in question so we can take a closer look.
Good luck!

You installed the Conduit spyware. To remove it, triple-click the following line of text to select it:
~/Library/Application Support/Conduit
Copy (command-C) the text to the Clipboard. Then select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the Finder menu bar and paste (command-V) into the box that opens. A Finder window may open with a folder named "Conduit" selected. If so, delete the selected folder.
Select Go to Folder again and enter:
/Library
From the folder that opens, delete the following items, if they exist. You may be prompted for your login password.
Application Support/Conduit
InputManagers/CTLoader
LaunchAgents/com.conduit.loader.agent.plist
ScriptingAdditions/ct_scripting.osax
Close the folder. Now select Go to Folder one more time and enter:
/Applications/Toolbars
Delete that item. Close the Finder windows you opened. Log out and log back in.

Hi, My region doesn't supports Passbook features. so i want to delete the passbook icon or hide it. How can i do it ? Kindly advice !!!

You cannot delete it but you could take it to your last home page. Tap on the icon until it shakes then move your finger on the icon to the right edge of your screen until the icon is half hidden and the iPhone will take the icon to the following page. If you have more than two pages, just keep repeating this move until the passbook icon is on the last page. While there, the icon will not take up space on the home screens you most frequestly use.

I've upgraded to yosemite, and it tells me that safari doesn't support the community toolbar?? How do I get that feature back?

I've upgraded to yosemite, and safari tells me it doesn't support "community toolbar". How can I get this feature back?

The "community toolbar" is part of the adware Conduit. You don't want that feature back!

Safari doesn't support iFrames????

I went on the Black and Decker website to register a new tool and I was told I could not because my browser didn't recognize iFrames. I have no idea what iFrames are and why Safari doesn't work.
I did get on the site using FireFox.
Tried a second time with Safari and it opened the registration page, but the content was in a very narrow viewing window with scroll bars (unlike FireFox that filled the entire browser window).
Something is really funky.

Hi Derryl S,
I went on the Black and Decker website to register a new tool and I was told I could not because my browser didn't recognize iFrames.
Black and Decker is probably Safari unfriendly ...
Could you register the new tool via Fire Fox ...
If this is a yes, than have fun with the new tool.

I have a Lexmark x5150 printer, getting error message Prop Res DLL not located when trying to print, just in Black. Contacted Lexmark, determined the Problem is Firefox 4.3 doesn't support this feature, although my browser internet explorer does.

I print shipping labels through Paypal, I want to print just in black ink, but when I use the Lexmark properties to change the printing to just black, getting message Prop Res DLL not located. Spent some time with Lexmark Chat to try and find out what I needed to do to fix this. As they walked me through a couple of things to try, one was to go to Internet Explorer, found I could do the necessary printing, with no problems of getting that error message. So it appears the problem is with Firefox 4.3

See this thread: <br />
https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/816333?s=Prop+Res+DLL+not+located&as=s
Surprising that Lexmark wasn't aware of a problem with their drivers that is not exactly new, or restricted to Firefox. <br />

I am trying to download Microsoft but Safari doesn't support this. What can I do?

I have purchased Microsoft as a download but am unable to do this as not supported by Safari. What can I do to complete this operation?

You cannot download that to the iPad. It is an application for the Mac only and will not work on the iPad - the devices use different operating systems.
You can only download apps from the App Store. These App Store apps are all designed to work on the iPad. There are apps that are compatible with the MS Office suite of apps - Pages, Numbers and Keynote from Apple, Documents to Go, Office 2HD and others can be found in the app store or by using my good friend Google!

Why ios Safari doesn't support Arabic @font-face fonts?

Recently, we decided to use some arabic webfonts from fonts.com in our projects, but we have had trouble with ios safari arabic webfont rendering. It's really ridiculous and amazing!!!
I checked different fonts with different format(ttf, svg) from different online font hosting services. (fonts.com, fontdeck.com, ...) but the Arabic characters didn't display with my fonts and it just displayed by default (I think it's Arial) font by ios safari!
I am sure that the fonts download but the characters doidn't show with my font typeface! because, interesting, I tested with other fonts (the glyphs English numbers in these fonts replace with arabic numbers) so when safari rendering the fonts it showed the numbers with correct fonts (webfonts) but it didn't show the arabic character!! :-)
I checked all those fonts in Mac and PC with Safari, Chrome, FF, IE, everyrhing is ok in both platform but in ios it has problem?!!
I want to know that, Is this problem/bug from ios Safari that resolve in ios6 or this is apple policy that don't show any other fonts?!!! (Think Different!!?? )
How can I tell the apple this problem, because with this bug or policy we cannot use the great fonts that designer designed with whole efforts. Is there any issue tracker or bug report from Apple that we can tell them this?

ActiveX: Safari does not support

I'm using the "Blackboard Academic Suite" online course delivery system through my university. Many of the functions require support for "ActiveX".
Safari doesn't support ActiveX, which is incredibly lame. Are there any ways around this issue (other than buying a PC)?

Remember Katherine,
ActiveX opens up Windows to security issues. Last numbers I saw being touted around had total Windows viruses at over 97,000. Number of Mac OS X viruses Zero, there are many reasons for this, one of which is the default security build into OS X and Safari.
I know it bites, we had to implement Blackboard at our university, but my section was tied in under the Marketing Dept so we all had Macs. Luckily I had a PC I used for browser compatibility checking so I could do Blackboard work on that.
The next worst offender outside of the university system is the real estate multiple listing service. Some tard wanted a really cool looking menu that they couldn't do in java so they wrote an ActiveX control so the web page is a mixture of menus in html/java, and the ActiveX menu so now it won't run on anything but IE in Windows. Of course you could fill out the data in the forms to perform a search without ActiveX but the tard also put the submit button on the ActiveX control leaving everyone SOL.
I keep VPC on the system for emergency use which is still rather rare. Last time I brought up Windows under VPC was about 3 weeks ago.

I have used the Disk Utility to rparir files and rest Safari. I have deleated Firefox then downloaded a fresh version, still the same error messages ! Please help it's driving me nutts.

Perky --
You do not need any "Cleaner" app for Macs. I would not be at all surprised if that didn't actually damage your Mac, especially if it were MacDefender. Applejack is OK, but I'm not sure what it erased. Do you know?
You also don't need any Virus Barrier. That could also mess things up.
The fact that all of your browsers are now messed up indicates that it is not a Safari problem, but more system-wide.

Why aperture doesn't support Fujifilm S100 FS Raf?

Dear Sir
despite of the fact that has passed five years since when the above camera has been released, your program Apple Aperture (now on 3.4 version) doesn't support his RAF file format. Why? Instead I've noticed that you have given support for the RAF of other fujifilm camera.
I hope that you'll integrate the support as soon as possible.
Thanking you in advance,
Giuliano Zanzi

Guiliano,
this is a user-to-user forum.
And it is not guaranteed that Apple will hear you here,
You'd better use the feedback form to send your feature request directly to the Apple developer team: Apple - Aperture - Feedback

Safari doesn't open properly at startup

Hi everybody,
I've been browsing the forum a bit, but didn't find an answer to my question. Here it goes:
I have Safari added in my dock, and I marked it as 'open after login'. The same for Mail. When my mac has started up my Mail indeed opens, but Safari doesn't. To be more concrete, I see the 'topbar' opening but no actual screen opens. Mail however works perfectly.
Maybe this is a very small setting or such, but I can't seem to find it.
Could someone please help me with this one?
Thanks!
pytur

I see the 'topbar' opening but no actual screen opens
Make sure Safari is in the list in System Preferences > Accounts - Login Items
If it's there and you are only seeing the "topbar" when Safari opens, could be a third party Safari add on that's preventing Safari from loading the GUI and pages.

P.s. The Web server is a Window Server 2003 R2 standard edition

Perhaps using [modules|https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006252802008E/modules.zip] will at least tell us what dlls are loading. Look at the CR dlls. There should not be any v11 files loaded by your app.
You may also start considering obtaining phone support for this one. I have a feeling this will take more than just forums to solve...

Safari Doesn't Remember Tabs

Noticed a strange behaviour in Safari 6 on Mountain Lion.
When I close the window by clicking the red x in the top left and then re-open, Safari comes up with a blank pages, it doesn't remember any of the tabs I had open.
If however I close it by clicking quit on the Safari dock icon and then re-open, Safari opens back up with all my tabs from the last session.
This doesn't seem right, any advice?

When you quit Safari, (Mountain) Lion's Resume feature will remember what pages you had open and reopen them the next time you start Safari, because that's what the feature is supposed to do.
But when you close Safari's window—not by quitting, but by clicking the red button—(Mountain) Lion assumes that you don't want to see all those window's tabs again. (That's why you closed the window.) So it doesn't restore them when you open a new window.
You should get into the habit of quitting Safari when you want to stop using it, but might want to resume where you left off later. Really, the same goes for all other Apple apps. Closing a window tells the app and the OS, "I don't want this file/page/whatever to be open anymore." On the other hand, quitting the app tells the OS, "I don't want to use this app right now, but I might use it again later, and please reopen the same files/pages/whatever the next time."
By the way, the easiest way to quit an app is to press ⌘Q.
