Safari/facebook help

Hi
when ever i chat with a friend on facebook i get this pop up safari can't find internet plug-in. some content on the page facebook home can't be shown because its mime type is unspecified. does anyone know if there will be fixes to this any time soon?
i have safari 4.0.4 {531.31.10}
thank you

Excellent news, Kevin. Glad to have finally been of help with something for you!
i just wonder why that it has to be uncheck for it to work ok with out know mime types message.
Taken literally, the message is saying that Safari doesn't know what application to use to play the pop-up sound. Unfortunately, sometimes the literal meanings of error messages on a PC don't match up well with what is actually causing them.
If you've got time, you could send a bug report to Apple about the issue. If you bring up your Menu bar in Safari, go "Help > Report Bugs to Apple" to send a bug report. If you do it while you're at Facebook and getting the error message, you can also send a screenshot of the page (with the error message on it), and can also attach the source code of the page to the bug report.

  • I cant get my macbook pro to have a full screen in safari please help?

    I have tried getting my full screen back and its not working please help?????

    First off, iOS 7 does not run on Macs.
    Secondly, Mac Pros are desktops, and MacBook Pros are notebooks.  Something is not jibing with your signature and what you say you are running.  Please go to Apple menu -> About This Mac to tell us your Mac OS X version.
    Go to Safari menu -> About Safari, or Help menu-> About Safari to tell us your Safari version.
    That will tell us if fullscreen is an option.

    Can you post a copy of the crash report?
    Go to your Applications Folder and open your Utilities Folder. Open the application Console.
    In the left-hand column, click on Crash Reporter.
    Click on the small triangle under Crash Reporter in the l/h column and they will all be listed.
    Scroll down to the latest Safari report and click on it.
    Now click on the r/h column (which now only shows THAT crash report and then Command-a to copy it all.
    Come back here and Command-v it to post it here!

    It would appear that your system is somewhat mangled, and it is time for some general 'servicing'.
    Start here:
    Repairing permissions is important, and should always be carried out both before and after any software installation or update.
    Go to Disk Utility (this is in your Utilities Folder in your Application folder) and click on the icon of your hard disk (not the one with all the numbers).
    In First Aid, click on Repair Permissions.
    This only takes a minute or two in Tiger, but much longer in Leopard.
    Background information here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1452?viewlocale=en_US
    and here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302672
    An article on troubleshooting Permissions can be found here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2963
    By the way, you can ignore any messages about SUID or ACL file permissions, as explained here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1448?viewlocale=en_US
    If you were having any serious problems with your Mac you might as well complete the exercise by repairing your hard disk as well. You cannot do this from the same start-up disk. Reboot from your install disk (holding down the C key). Once it opens, select your language, and then go to Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select your hard disk as before and click Repair.
    Once that is complete reboot again from your usual start-up disk.

    Reboot your Mac and then perform a Safe Boot:

    Now try downloading and installing again.

  • My Iphone lost Safari, please help me restore it

    My Iphone lost Safari, please help me restore it

    So a Spotlight search on your phone to search for Safari and click the App. Once you verify that it is still on there you'll just have to look for it.
    If the App isn't listed, try a restart/reboot of the iPhone holding the home button and sleep/wake switch. If the App still doesn't show itself in the OS or via Spotlight, restore the phone via iTunes.

  • Safari, Mail, Help crashes since 10.4.11

    Hello!
    Since i update to 10.4.11 some applications crashes when i try to start them with the "unexpected quit" message (Safari, Mail, Help-Viewer, Software-Update)
    I did not use any hacks, i also look in the libery but there is no PicLens and no other Plug-In.
    When i try to load the 10.4.10 Combo Updater the system crash again with the "unexpected quit" message.
    I use the Disk-Utility to repair the hard disk but it doesn´t help.
    I have no other Idea! Can you help me please?
    Basti

    Bastian,
    After your backup I would recommend that you download and attempt to reapply the Mac OS X 10.4.11 Combo Update (PPC).
    Very often a Combo Update will be successful when an incremental Software Update has not been successful.

  • Footer content is centered in IE, but NOT in Firefox (or Safari) *PLS HELP!!!

    Please check out our website and please let us know why the footer content is centered in IE, but NOT in Firefox (or Safari)? The footer contains a simple div / table ?? with just a couple of icons to the left, a copyright link in the center, and a Facebook "Like" link to the right. It looks perfect in IE, but when you view it in Firefox, it ends up appearing all the way to the LEFT side of the footer!!! PLEASE HELP - THANK YOU!!!!!!
    The site is www.PartyGirlRocks.com

    [http://example.com link text]It ended up being a lack of the <center> code. Thank you so much for your quick reply & advice. I now have another cross-browser issue, this time with Facebook "Like" code, but want to respect the forum rules & unsure if I need to post this new issue elsewhere...??
    Bascially the Facebook "Like" code has 3 options 1) Simple LIKE button, 2) LIKE Box, 3) LIKE Button along with several "friends" faces.
    I have option #1 (Simple LIKE Button) on all 5 web pages and it works great on all browsers; however...
    I have option #3 (Like Button With friend's Faces on One page
    http://www.partygirlrocks.com/site/index-3.html
    and it works fine in Firefox & Safari, but NOT in IE!!!
    Ironically a flip-flop of my earlier issue. I don't know whether to laugh or cry, but I'm ready to rip my hair out. I know it may be Facebook specific, but any help would be greatly appreciated as social media is important.
    Thank you,
    Tony (Partygirl)
    Thanks!!

  • Safari - Facebook: "There was a temporary error, please try again. Click to send again."

    Hi all,
    I have a macbook 15 (Late 2008) with 10.6.8 running + Safari 5.1.10 and I have experienced two problems with the Facebook chat:
    1. Often (but I would say almost always) the chat window is cut below and I cannot visualize the box where to type my messages.
    2. Today I have installed the FacebookVideoCalling_v1.6 to perform video calling, and what I am not able to send messages, but I always got the error: "There was a temporary error, please try again. Click to send again." Nevertheless, by following the suggestion to try later, does not solve the situation.
    Does anyone experienced the same problem?
    If it can be useful, I have some additional info. This the Java version I have:
    java version "1.6.0_65"
    Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_65-b14-462-10M4609)
    Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.65-b04-462, mixed mode)
    And here is what I got under the menu "Developers"  (the screenshot is in italian, but I guess it is easy to understand it. Some translation: Svluppo = Develop, Mostra = Show, Abilita = Enable, Disabilita = Disable)
    Any hint? Thanks!

    Hi Damian,
    You can follow the article: Creative Cloud Help | Download Error in Apps tab of Creative Cloud Desktop Application which will help you to get your issue fixed.
    Let us know if it still gives you any issues.

  • When I turn on my iMac it comes up with the icon which I then log into. The password works and I then get the apple icon and the spinning wheel. After a minute it turns into a prohibited icon. If I log on the guest icon I get to Safari. Help!

    When I turn on my iMac it comes up with the login icons which I then choose and log into. The password works and I then get the apple icon and the spinning wheel. After about a minute the Apple icon turns into a prohibited icon. However, if I log in under the guest icon, I can access the wifi and get to Safari. I really don't know what to do next. Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

    Are you running any A-V? If it's an iMac 21.5, I don't think you're running Leopard, 10.5. Probably at least Snow Leopard, 10.6. This is the Leopard forum.
    This article says meant for 10.3.9 and eariler, but contains some still useful suggestions.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1411
    Try a Safe Boot. Shift at the startup chime and expect a much longer time to boot. This will bring you to a login screen with "Safe Boot" in red.
    Look at this as well.

  • Pop-up links everywhere in Safari, please help!

    I will try to give as many details as possible, but unfortunately I am not the BEST at knowing when it comes to computers (I'm trying to learn every day though) -- so I'm sorry in advance if any of this is confusing.
    I had been having issues with my computer being very slow recently, so I did a Disk Utility update as recommended by a very awesome article I found online. My computer speed has gotten back to normal and I thought everything was great! Until I realized that my Safari has not been fixed. I've tried EVERYTHING.
    When my computer was being slow, I updated to the most recent OS X available. I have a Macbook that I purchased for college in 2011 - so the physical computer is not too new, so I thought that giving my computer an update in software would help.
    For some reason, though, my Safari has been having so many ads. Like I said, I've tried almost everything I could find. My Safari will pop up with a new ad window almost anywhere I click. I get ads for hotels.com, Mackeeper, Dynamic Pricer... you name it. It's so inconvenient and annoying and I am genuinely hoping there's a way I can fix it. I've been so satisfied with my Mac these past three years but this is just a problem that's reminding me of what I used to run into all the time in the old PC days.
    To give you an idea of what I've tried: I've tried AdBlock, removing third party add ons or plug ins, changing my settings in Security and Privacy (the cookie settings, etc), I've tried searching my mac to see if Mackeeper or any of those annoying ads are in my activity monitor.
    Please tell me there's a way to get rid of these ads! I don't mind some ads, but just about anywhere I click on my Safari window, I get an ad that pops up into a new tab, so it's leading me to believe something is clearly wrong.
    If anyone has any further suggestions for improvement, I will be forever grateful! Usually I can do some research and figure little issues out, but this is persistent and nothing I search has been successful.
    Thank you!

    You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that this Internet criminal has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
