Safari not displaying pages correctly...

I have a new iMac with two accounts on it. One for my wife and one for me. On my account, safari works fine regardless of the website. However on my wife's account safari, cuts off some of the content and some of the text appear to be too large for the frames. In both accounts the safari's settings are set to default and are identical. The only difference that I can figure out is that my account is the admin, and my wife's isn't. The error does not happen on all webpages, just a couple here and there. I have changed her over to firefox for the time being, but it is bugging me that I cannot figure out what is going on. Any help is sincerely appreciated.
Thank you.

If your wife added fonts to her /Users/herhome/Library/Fonts folder, that could be the problem.
If that's the case, have her remove them.
Also she could do the following:
1) Quit all open applications.
2) Delete the fonts caches with FontNuke +(or with whatever utility you normally use)+
FontNuke <http://www.jamapi.com/pr/fn/>
3) Restart
4) Open the Font Book->Edit menu 'Select All' fonts - from the File menu select 'Validate Fonts'
from the Edit menu select 'Resolve Duplicates'
Good luck,
Tom

Safari not displaying pages correctly after upgrade to Mavericks

Hi, I just upgraded my macbook pro (mid 2010) to Mavericks and safari now displays web pages as if I was really zoomed in. When I load a page I will see it correctly for a second and it will then zoom in (no amount of pinch on my trackpad solves the problem). I can cmd - a few times to get it back to a normal display size, but I need to do it for every tab I open. When I open chrome, everything displays properly. Any Idea on what could cause this problem? Thx in advance
Sorry if I am not posting to the right forum, kinda new here

Try holding the control key and using a 2 finger swipe up or down (direction depends on how you have the track pad set) and see if you may inadvertently done zoom from this, it is different from a pinch zoom

Firefox 3.6 does not display pages correctly

I recently upgraded to 3.5 beta 4 and it worked ok. 2 weeks ago it stopped displaying pages correctly. Uninsalling and reinstalling did not cure problem. I unistalled and installed v3.6. Same problem.
I could provide a screenshot of Mozilla home page. Backgrounds, table borders and some inages to not display. I have disabled all plugins and "load images automatically" is checked.
The images and background of this page do not display. I checked with K-meleon and IE.

If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" as a (too) high value can cause issues.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
Make sure that you allow websites to choose their fonts.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Changing+fonts+and+colors
It is better not to increase the minimum font size, but use an extension to set the default page zoom to prevent issues with overlapping text.
*Default FullZoom Level: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/
On other platforms instead of Tools > Options use:
*Mac: Firefox > Preferences
*Linux: Edit > Preferences
*Windows: Firefox > Options
Press F10 if the menu bar is hidden on Windows and Linux or use "Firefox > Options/Preferences"

Acrobat 9 Pro: Message "An error exists on this page. Acrobat may not display page correctly.

Hi everyone,
I posted this in September: "Over the past week, I have received pdfs from 2 different graphic design contractors that do not open correctly in Acrobat 9 Pro. There is an error in the document and when I scroll to the page where the error is, I get: "An error exists on this page. Acrobat may not display the page correctly. Please contact the person hwo created the PDF document to correct the problem." I did this, and the contractor remade the pdf 3 times, and I still couldn't open it. This contractor is already using CS5. For the problem today, I haven't asked for it to be remade yet--decided to see if I could find out if anyone else is having the same problem. The second contractor is using CS4. The only thing that I have done differently at my end over the past week is upgrade CS4 to CS5. I already had Acrobat Pro 9 so I didn't update it when I updated my CS5 products. Should I have upgraded Acrobat 9 anyway? Somehow, it doesn't feel right that this is the problem. Any info on this would be appreciated."
I got one response from that posting, suggesting that the pdf was corrupted over email. That wasn't the problem.
What I didn't say above is that whenever I got an error message upon opening the pdf and clicked OK, I got another message: "Insufficient data for an image." I found that one or all of the images in the pdf were missing. Upon further investigation, the contractor and I found that sometimes the error message pointed to a specific font used--that being a Helvetica Bold font. Once we substituted it with a Helvetica Neue LT Std Adobe Opentype font, we no longer had an issue.
However, the problem rose it's ugly head today--what, 6 months later! I'm talking about 2 different pdfs this time.
For PDF#1, I got this error message about the font: "Cannot extract the embedded font 'JNAGNS+HelveticaNeueLTStd-Bd'. Some characters may not display or print correctly." When I click OK, I get another: "Insufficient data for an image." The images don't show up in the pdf. What I don't understand about this pdf is that this is one of those that was fixed in September. The only changes made in the document was to paragraph text--none to the text in the images. When I opened the revised pdf today, I am getting the same message again. This makes no sense.
I returned to my September blog to see if any further advice had been posted, but nada--not even anything from Adobe about it. I goggled until I found where someone suggested running a "Report PDF syntax issues" analysis in Preflight. I did that and even though the analysis showed the pdf passed, I checked the fonts in the list and saw that the one pointed to in the error message showed that a long list of glyphs were missing on both pages of the pdf. I have asked my contractor to replace her font with a new one, in case it has gotten corrupted. Haven't a new pdf to open yet.
Then when I opened PDF#2, I got the message: "An error exists on this page. Acrobat may not display the page correctly. Please contact the person hwo created the PDF document to correct the problem." When I ran the "Report PDF syntax issues" analysis in Preflight, I found got this warning: "Invalid operand(s) for operator (1 match on 1 page)". I clicked through and under "Page Description Errors/Invalid operand(s) for operator", it identifies Operator Name, Stream State, Operators Read, and Traversal Path. Under "Trigger Values" is says "Invalid operand(s) for operator: is true". None of this means a thing to me so I can't figure out what the problem is.
Let me say this: Both the contractor and I are using CS5 and Acrobat Pro 9, on Lion. If it helps, the contractor also sent one of the problem pdfs back in September to my boss who is running Acrobat Pro 9 on Windows 7 and she got the same messages.
Does anyone out there have a suggestion for us? PLEASE HELP!!!!

Thanks to all for posting suggestions. As it turned out, the contractor who was having a problem reinstalled Acrobat 9. She works from home and is emailing the pdfs to me. Things were running smoothly until this past week, when the problem started again. Whenever I get a pdf that won't open properly or print, I asked her to zip it and it is no longer a problem. Last week, I had the same problem start with a contractor in Florida and she also zips the pdf when there is a problem. Now I am thinking the problem might be at my end. I wonder if something is happening to them when they come through our firewall at work. I asked IT about it before but they didn't have a clue what the problem might be. Right now, zipping is the answer...who knows how long that will continue to work.

Acrobat 9 Pro: Message "An error exists on this page. Acrobat may not display page correctly. Please

Over the past week, I have received pdfs from 2 different graphic design contractors that do not open correctly in Acrobat 9 Pro.

Thanks for the quick reply. Would zipping the pdf protect it through email...like I said, this is the first time I've had this problem and I've been getting pdfs though email for years.

Why is Safari not showing pages correctly ?

Hi there !
I'm having a little Safari 5 trouble.
Safari is not showing page layouts correctly, it seems it is not recognizing / reading css at all. Not one site shows correctly !
Whereas Firefox has no problem at all.
On Safari, I had diverse small extensions and Glims (but I had those for a while and nothing like this ever happened - only the occasional crash).
Also, I tried reinstalling Safari entirely. No change.
What do you think can be causing this ?

HI and welcome.......
If you still have Glims the latest build is available here.
http://wiki.machangout.com/howdoi/glims-development-build
As for the extensions, go to Safari / Preferences - Extensions. Turn that OFF. Quit Safari (Command + Q) Relaunch Safari and see if that makes a difference.
Try resetting Safari. From your Safari menu bar click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 7 buttons, click Reset.
If nothing above has helped, try troubleshooting the Safari .plist file. Open a Finder window. Select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. It has a small house icon. Then open the Library folder then the Preferences folder.
Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop. Now launch Safari. If Safari loads pages as it should, move that .plist file to the Trash.

Equium M50-164: IE not displaying pages correctly

I have a Toshiba new Equium M50-164, but it will not display my internet page correctly at http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/lorne.anderson/Bridge/
It should look like this:
http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/lorne.anderson/NormalView.gif
with the Bridge anaylser logo in the header but on my Toshiba it looks like this:
http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/lorne.anderson/ToshibaView.gif
I have 4 other computers that all display it correctly (running XP,2000,98SE) and several friends say they can see it OK. If I look at the unlying html code via right click and view source in IE the bit that displays the logo should read:
"align="left">
</td>
<td width="610" align="center" height="65"><a href="../index.html" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="Images/Bridge%20Analyser.gif" width="311" height="57" align="left" alt="Opens my software home page to see more programs">
</a>

<a href="../index.html">
but on the Toshiba view source displays:
"align="left">
</td>
<td width="610" align="center" height="65"><a href="../index.html" target="_blank">
</a>

<a href="../index.html">
Note the 2 blank line where the code to show the logo should be. If I open the page from files on my hard disk it display correctly so my guess is that Toshiba have done something to overide default IE security settings but I can't see what. How can I get IE on my Toshiba to work the way Microsoft designed it to work?
Just as a check, can anyone using this forum read the page correctly or do you also get the missing logo?

Out of curiosity are you running any toolbars, add-ons or content filtering for IE?? As you pointed out the source code isn't the same as the original it's been altered and since the <IMG> html tag is missing that would explain why Internet Explorer isn't loading the image.
I can't see anything particularly wrong with the code however your filename does have a space in it "%20" and might be triggering some kind of content filtering.
As a suggestion rename the image file removing the space then update your html page and try again.

Safari not displaying page

Hopefully, someone is much more experienced than I. I cannot get Safari to display a slide menu that is coded in javascript yet it works in every other browser, IE, Netscape, Opera and Firefox. The following is the link to the html page: http://www.designoutput.com/testslide.html
I believe it is a lack of understanding on my part of how Safari accepts code. all help will be appreciated.

Safari 3.0.4 is not displaying pages correctly

My main page is a forward from www.tyford.com. It's actually
http://home.comcast.net/~tyreeford/
When I "upgraded" from Safari 2 to Safari 3.0.4, this page and several others comes up in html.
Only a few pages do this. If there's an html guru out there, can you explain why only a few pages do this? What's up with the Comcast page code that Safari 3.0.4 doesn't understand?
Thanks,
Ty Ford

Well changing it to 8, which is what some of my other pages have didn't work.
Here's a solution from Dave Massey At Chesapeake Systems.
Take the html and paste it in to Stickies. Export it as text. It will ignore the stuff causing the problem that Apple created with Safari 3.x. You'll have to change the extension from .txt to .html .
Then load that sucker back up to your web site and refresh.
Worked for me, Mr. Massey

Not displaying pages correctly in DW

I'm a new Dreamweaver user. I was doing very well so far. I
had created and was managing over 70 pages in my site. It looked
great.
But I did something that causes my pages to display only the
text and graphics when I'm viewing them in Dreamweaver. No tables,
no CSS, nothing. Just text and jpegs all in a row. But when I
preview in a browser, the pages look great.
It's not code/split/design; that's normal. I think my style
sheets are linked correctly; everything is showing in the browser.
I just can't get the display to go back to normal.
Please help! Thanks.

Safari not displaying websites correctly

I bought a new Mac Mini yesterday, The Mac updated itself, there was a long list of different items it needed to download and update. After restarting the Mac, I opened Safari and clicked through a few websites, the websites first display as though they have been zoomed into, then when I try to scroll down the page the images and text go out of sync and into each other basically overlapping each other. I am using a vga through a converter, the desktop and other items seem full screen and fine, its only Safari which seems to display websites as zoomed in which if scrolled on will make items overlap each other. I have a 26inch LCD TV.
Is there any solution to this?
Also when using Safari the Icons dock appears below, its annoying becuase it limits amount of viewing space I have, In Windows XP/Vista you a Windows Bar at the bottom, which is fine becuase its small, is there a way to shrink the Icons dock or to make it disappear when using Safari and then to reappear after use?

the desktop and other items seem full screen and fine, its only Safari which seems to display websites as zoomed in which if scrolled on will make items overlap each other
Can you post a screenshot of what you see? (You can use a free hosting site such as www.imageshack.us to upload the picture to.)
is there a way to shrink the Icons dock or to make it disappear when using Safari and then to reappear after use?
You can shrink the icons by grabbing the dividing line (towards the trash can) and dragging it down (or up to increase the icon size). Alternatively, cmdoptd will hide/show the Dock.

Safari not displaying swfs correctly

My web site consists of Flash swf files embedded in html pages.
If I have the Address Bar hidden while loading, for ex, my index page and then try to bring up the Address Bar, its swf does not move down with the rest of the window contents, so it blocks the Address Bar. The only way out is to quit and restart Safari.
This did not happen with the previous version of Safari. I don't know who is at fault, Apple or Adobe/Macromedia. I don't really care, but this is really annoying.

If your wife added fonts to her /Users/herhome/Library/Fonts folder, that could be the problem.
If that's the case, have her remove them.
Also she could do the following:
1) Quit all open applications.
2) Delete the fonts caches with FontNuke +(or with whatever utility you normally use)+
FontNuke <http://www.jamapi.com/pr/fn/>
3) Restart
4) Open the Font Book->Edit menu 'Select All' fonts - from the File menu select 'Validate Fonts'
from the Edit menu select 'Resolve Duplicates'
Good luck,

Trying to add html content with Dw for Rf page (Dw is not displaying page correctly also)

This is how the page looks in Reflow:
This is how the page looks in Dw CC (2014)
Here are the ways we have tried so far to get our html quizmaker file to load and run in Rf page:
The commented out items were previous attempts to get the content to load and run. Tested the Quizmaker content as standalone page and worked great. The best we have gotten so far is to have a scrollbar show up on the right side and bottom and we could not move them. The div has been defined in the Rf page using a Rf box.
Any ideas on other ways to load the quiz?

It looks like Dreamweaver is rendering the page without the CSS file.
I can't read the code in your screenshot - is the CSS file referenced in the html? Is the CSS file present on disk?
Also you tried looking at your page in a browser? It be good to try both viewing the exported code that you're trying to edit in Dreamweaver, as well as doing "Preview in Chrome" from Reflow.

Firefox not displaying content and not displaying page correctly

I am unable to view some sites (facebook, gmail, hotmail) fully. It seems that images do not come up, such as the delete button in gmail and the check mark in gmail when selecting a msg.
I have reset configuration, cleared cache and cookies all to no avail.
It happens under other user profiles on the same system.

Some of those features might use the Flash plugin. There are some compatibility issues between the latest Flash player and some Firefox add-ons or settings. Could you see whether anything in this article helps: [[Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox]].
With respect to images in particular, check out this article if you haven't already: [[Fix problems that cause images to not show]].

Safari will not display pages

I recently updated to Mountain Lion on my late 2010 MacBook Air. Today, I attempted to use Safari and I can get no page to display. Safari itself loads, but no pages will load. I use Chrome as my default browser and only pull up Safari occasionally, so I can't say for sure that I have used Safari since the upgrade, however, I probably have.
Today, I was invited to a Go To Meeting online meeting. I opened the page in Chrome and it downloaded the GTM app. I clicked on that and it tried unsuccessfully to download required files from it's server via it's own app. I tried this several times without success and then thought to try the entire process using Safari. That is when I discovered that Safari would not display pages. It acts as if it has no connection to the internet. Safari loads and the progress bar moves a little across the top then it just stops. It never times out or complains; just nothing.
Given that the GTM app looks also like it cannot connect to the internet, I went looking at some of the suspects. My firewall is turned off. My network status comes up clean when I test it. ...and more oddly, Chrome seems to have no problems with any and all pages.
I searched for similar problems with solutions and one recommendation was to boot into safe mode to see if that made a difference. I did that and there was no difference. Since I don't use Safari routinely, it is stock, as delivered.
Any ideas for how to troubleshoot this?
Thanks,
Bill
