Safari loses the ability to use Greek accents after a while

Since my transition to Lion I have noticed that if I have left a tab inactive for some time, I then lose the ability to write Greek with the proper accents over the letters. Reloading the page does not work either and the only way around it is to close the tab and open a new one. I posted the problem in Greek Mac Forums and it appears that some people are also experiencing the issue and there doesn't seem to be a way around it.
I uninstalled all Safari extensions, such as Glimms, but the problem persists and it is extremely inconvenient.
Any ideas?

You should give it a try.  It is quite common to have to use a different browser sometimes, Safari is not perfect.

  • My computer lose the ability to use a correctly connected wifi

    I have a mac desktop. Just recently, possible since an upgrade to mavericks, it loses its ability to use wifi its clearly recognises as connected. The temporary solution I have involves opening the network and running wifi diagnostics. It always comes back and says it is all fine but it fixes it. ie the act of running diagnostics resolves the problem.
    Happens every 10 mins or so when using and is now becoming a sore point.
    I am not even slightly technical. I turn on, I type, I turn off.
    any help gratefully received

    Please test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes.
    Step 1
    Take the applicable steps in this support article. The Wireless Diagnostics program generates a large file of information about your system, which would be used by Apple Engineering in case of a support incident. Don't post the contents here.
    Step 2
    Disconnect all USB 3 devices. If you don't know which are USB 3, disconnect all USB devices except keyboard and mouse.
    Step 3
    If you're not using a wireless keyboard or trackpad, disable Bluetooth by selecting Turn Bluetooth Off from the menu with the Bluetooth icon. If you don't have that menu, open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and check the box marked Show Bluetooth in menu bar. Test. If you find that Wi-Fi works better with Bluetooth disabled, you should use the 5 GHz Wi-Fi band. Your router may not support it; in that case, you need a new router.
    Step 4
    Open the Network pane in System Preferences and make a note of your settings in the Wi-Fi service. It may be helpful to take screenshots of the various tabs in the preference pane. If the preference pane is locked, unlock it by clicking the padlock icon and entering your administrator password. Delete Wi-Fi from the service list on the left by selecting it and clicking the minus-sign button at the bottom. Then recreate the service by clicking the plus-sign button and following the prompts.
    Step 5
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    Step 6
    Reset the PRAM.
    Step 7
    Launch the Keychain Access application. Search for and delete all AirPort network password items that refer to the network. Make a note of the password first.
    Step 8
    Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service center.

  • Randomly lose the ability to minimize windows (possibly after 5.5 update)

    Just like the title says I randomly lose the ability to minimize windows.
    I just noticed it a few days ago; and I think it started after I updated to 10.5.5... It seems to happen when I use the spaces feature. Since I'm always use Windows XP in vmware, I give Windows it's own desktop. At times I drag, or open up new applications in other spaces. And when I go bettween the spaces using a command arrow, I notice the "yellow" minimize botton turns a grayish white, and I can't click on it. Sometimes I can still do a command M to minimize that Window, other times that feature is "grayed out" as well. The only thing I can do to fix it is to close and reopen the Window(s), affected.
    About my machine:
    Macbook Pro 4,1
    2.4 ghz Intel
    2 gig's of Ram
    Nivida 8600 256meg
    200 gig drive (Partitioned a 100 for leopard, and a 100 for Windows XP Pro "NTFS")

    Update:
    I found the problem has to do with vmware.
    When I run Windows XP Pro in full screen mode in vmware, and I got bettween spaces, that's when I lose the ability to minimize my OSX applications.
    If I run Windows XP Pro with in a window in Vmware or in "utility" mode, I don't have that problem...

  • If I make work in Premiere CC but lose access to CC, do I lose the ability to open the file and edit my work?

    I'm currently using Premiere CS6. Premiere CC looks appealing in terms of the updates, but not the payment model. If I can't pay for CC for a while, or switch to another program one day, will I lose the ability to open any of my Premiere CC files? It's shocking how often I go back to an old project that was made in an ancient program that I no longer use, but because I forever own that software, I'm always able to open the file up and make whatever changes necessary so I can bring the file into a more current program. Is this workflow lost if I lose access to CC? If this is the case, I may have to stick to CS6 just because I have the disks and know I'll always be able to install the programs and access my files.

    New PROJECT files, and SOME data files (such as InDesign ???) will not open in earlier programs... industry standard files (such as JPG) will open in any program
    For more information about a specific program, you will need to ask in that program's forum

  • CS4 crashes when I send to print and pen tool loses the ability to keep the attributes of a multi-stroked line.

    Using Illustrator CS4 (can't upgrade because the office I am contracted with will not upgrade) on a Mac running Mavericks 10.9.5 (just upgraded from 10.6). CS4 crashes when I send to print (I've been saving as a PDF and printing that). Also, the pen tool loses the ability to keep the attributes of a multi-stroked line.

    Thanks, Larry. I should have remembered the "…Basic Appearance…" thingy. I've tutored enough people in Illustrator—it just never occurred to me. As for the printer, I'll give that a shot. I'll fumble my way around in that; not sure exactly how to go about doing it, but I'm game. Thank you for your help.   — Jim

        csdwarf,
    So sorry to hear about the trouble with Wi-Fi! Let's get that working the way it should. Could you provide us some more details regarding where this breakdown occurs? Are you having trouble with turning Wi-Fi on or connecting to your Wi-Fi? Are other devices connecting to your Wi-Fi without issue?

  • When I upgraded to 10.7.4 I lost the ability to use a lot of my previous software that was intel based. My Adobe suites for example. So for $29 i now have to spend $1000's to get these to work. What has changed with Mountian Lion. I am not rich/

    When I upgraded to 10.7.4 I lost the ability to use a lot of my previous software that was intel based. My Adobe suites for example. So for $29 i now have to spend $1000's to get these to work. What has changed with Mountian Lion. I am not rich?

    The reason your applications do not work in Lion/Mountain Lion is that they were written for the older PowerPC CPU that all Macs used up to 2006.  When Apple made its transition to the Intel CPU, they licensed software that they included in all versions of OS X (from Tiger to Leopard and optionally, Snow Leopard) called Rosetta.
    Rosetta miraculously allows PowerPC applications to work on the Intel processor transparently; you do not know it is even present.
    The problem is that after 6 years of the transition, Apple's license to use the underlying software expired for OS X Lion and all version thereafter (and it is doubtful that the current owner of the software, IBM, would relicense it, even if Apple were inclined to do so).
    So you do not have to accept recriminations from others for previously using Rosetta without even knowing it was present and running!
    So for those of use that need to upgrade to Lion/Mountain Lion, I have offered the option to install Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) into Parallels 7:

    And now Mountain Lion:
    If you are unable or unwilling to update your inventory of PowerPC software, this solution offers you an alternative for not more than the $29 cost of Snow Leopard and $79 cost of Parallels (cheaper via internet sources).
    Full Snow Leopard installation instructions into Parallels 7 are here:

    Have you tried resetting your iPhone, press and hold the sleep/wake button and the home button for 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears, ignoring the red slider, then turn back on. You won't lose any data doing this.

    I was making new Apple ID with my other Email on iTunes, but I canceled the process on payment page. After a while I went to make a new ID with same Email but it says the Email is already in use! what should i do?

    You will need to try changing the email address on the first account and see if you can then re-use it on a new account - you can try changing the email address via http://appleid.apple.com or by logging into it via the Store > View Account menu option on a computer's iTunes (if you don't have a spare email account then you can create one via http://gmail.com or http://hotmail.com)

  • Hey ppl,my macbook is not booting and by that i mean u can hear the audio wave when its starting up,the screen goes white and then after a while there's a folder with a question mark in the middle of the screen...anyone,any ideea?!?

    Hey ppl,my macbook is not booting and by that i mean u can hear the audio wave when its starting up,the screen goes white and then after a while there's a folder with a question mark in the middle of the screen...anyone,any ideea?!?Regards.

    That folder with the question mark icon means that the MacBook can't find the boot directory. That can either mean it can't find the hard drive or the hard drive data is somehow corrupted.
    Put your install DVD into the drive and reboot. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option key until the Install Disk shows up). That will force your MacBook to boot from the optical drive.
    Once it has finished booting and you are at the Install screen launch Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Is your Hard Drive in the list on the left?
    If it is then select the First Aid Tab run Repair Disk and if that repairs any problems run it again until the green OK appears and then run Repair Permissions.
    If your hard drive isn’t recognized in Disk Utility then your hard drive is probably dead.
