Safari not formatting the page

I have Safari running on Mac OS 10.6 with an Intel iMac.
The system has 2 accounts on it.   Admin and User.
When I log on as the User acount, and launch Safari, some web sites do NOT format correctly.
Safari OR Firefox do NOT show the fonts correctly, spacing is off, and alignment is messy.
I have tried Firefox, No change the same bad format.
HOWEVER when I log on as the Admin user.    Safari and Firefox work correctly.
FiXES;
I have removed the Prefenece folder from the User account.
Logged off, then back on again. Safari created all new prefences, and still the same formatting issues.
Any suggestions??
where do I look?
Thanks
Larry

I was think of creating another account tomorrow.
Then moving the files over to the new ~/library folder, one folder at a time.
It has to be in the ~/Library folder.
Was hoping some would know the answer.
Just don't know which folder or file it would be.
Sort of like troubleshooting OS 9 again. lol
I WILL post my findings.
thanks.

Is there a way to have Safari not reload the page when moving back and forth?

I really like being able to swipe back and forth in Safari, however when I do this, it reloads the page. Why? Can't it just used the cached content? I understand that my view my be 'outdated', but I could always manually refresh if I wanted to.
The reason I want this is because when you swipe back, it takes a few seconds before you can actually scroll the page while you wait for it to load, which is annoying

Might be a cache issue ...
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.

what do i do if my internet is wep and i need it to be wpa2 because my ipod touch 4th gen connects to the internet but when i click on safari or itunes it says safari cannot open the page because its not connected to the internet. i have contacted apple support and they said to change from wep to wpa2 but when i change it to wpa2 and type in password and connect on my laptop it says the saved setting on this computer for the network do not match the require ments of the network

My 2nd gen works fine with WPA2 and AES encryption.
You may need to go back and start over. Reset the router back to factory defaults, log on as the admin, set up security, DHCP, and make sure the IP address pool has enough IP addresses to lease to ALL of the computers/devices that will connect to that the router.

you may be connected to the wireless network but the question is the internet working properly on the wireless network...
what i mean is that i can make a wireless network without the internet so i can save and share files and have other devices connected to the same network access them... but you have to make sure that your internet it running properly... may have to reconfigure the router is your using PPPOE or if it was working prior to your post then try to restart your modem... that usually resolves most issues.

Safari will not open on my iPad Air...."Safari cannot open the page because it could not connect to the server." There were recent updates on my iPad Air. How can I fix this problem?

How can I correct the issue of Safari not connecting on my iPad Air? It was working great 2 days ago.....now on September 20 it is not working! I have an internet connection but Safari will not open. "Safari cannot open the page because it could not connect to the server."

Hello Beckieor,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice concerning network issues:
iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
Follow these steps to troubleshoot the above issues:
Be sure you're in range of your Wi-Fi router (access point).
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and on. If your Wi-Fi setting is dimmed, follow these steps.
Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and cable or DSL modem are connected to power, turned on, and connected to the Internet. If not, refer to your network administrator or Internet service provider (ISP) for assistance.
Restart your iOS device.
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you're connected.
Tap and Forget this Network.
Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
Note: You may need to enter your Wi-Fi password again if your network requires one.
Turn your Wi-Fi router off and on2. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
Update your device to the latest version of software.
Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware2. For AirPort Base Stations, install updates using the AirPort Utility.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.

Am not able to use facebook on my Iphone 4, softwareversion:iOS7.1, also tried to access through safari and chrome that i have installed it gives an error message saying: "safari could not open the page because server stopped responding", i tried network reset, reset the whole device, rebooting , changing airplane mode rebooting nothing fix the issue, but i can access other sites and google , am using Vodafone as my carrier with 2g network, when at home able to access facebook.com through wifi in safari requesting assistance thank you

If you can access Facebook while on Wifi at home, but you are unable to access it while away running on your carrier's 2G network, I could phone your carrier. You have already completed the Cellular Data troubleshooting for the iPhone, so any limitations keeping your from connecting to Facebook over cellular will have to be answered by your carrier.

I get an error message when trying to download apps from the app store. "safari can not open the page because the address is invalid". Please help!!

You can't use Safari to download iPad apps. Only use iTunes/App Store.

Settings → scroll down to Safari → in Safari settings, I selected both Clear History and Clear Cookies and Data.
IF that does not work -
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Finally - if problem still present -
Go to Settings>General>Reset
Reset the network settings - you will need to add the password of your home WiFi in your phone once more
The device should turn itself off & back on then go into Settings>Wifi and join your network

My IPad2 will not connect to the internet, "Safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding." My AirPort utility shows that I am connected. What could be the problem?

My iPad2 will not connect to the internet, "Safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding". I've run the AirPort utility and it shows that I'm connected to my Wi-Fi. The connection works with both my iMac and iPhone. I'm concerned that the problem is with hardware rather than software.

Try the following:
1. Turn router off for 30 seconds and on again
2. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
3. Reset iPad; hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo

HT1695 Safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the Internet

I recently bought iPhone 4 which is still "Locked" for cellular carriers in my country.It's a jailbroken phone.Therefor I connected to internet using a hotspot in my laptop via wi-fi.I'm using windows 7 in my laptop.I was able to connect to the internet without any problem till yesterday,but now I'm getting this error message "Safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the Internet".I reset my network data and reboot my phone and router several times but still having same problem.I can see the wi-fi icon in my phone with full signal strength.Probably I got this problem after downloading the crack app called "iThemes",but I'm not 100% sure about this.
How can I fix this problem.
Thank you.

Hacking an iPhone is against Apple's license agreement for the iPhone which you have admitted to violating on a forum that is provided and moderated by Apple, and is not supported by Apple directly or indirectly via this forum.
You are on your own - contact whoever you downloaded the hacking garbage from for help with this, which has also made your iPhone very insecure removing all the built-in security included with iOS.

Screen briefly flashes white but does not display the page when the Safari icon or other icons are tapped.

A problem has just started with my IPAD Air after 3 months of use.
If I try to open Safari by tapping on the icon the screen briefly flashes white but does not display the page.
Similarly if I try to open Settings page, Mail page, Calendar or Clock the screen just briefly flashes but the Apps do not run.
Some of the Apps do work on tapping the icon e.g. Maps, iBooks, Appstore, iTunes, Newstand etc.
I do have some website links which display when the icon is tapped e.g. John Lewis but some links do not work.
I have ensured that the ipad is fully charged, powered it off an on again, and cleaned the screen with a lint free cloth but the
same problem keeps occurring.

I saume you used a second display at one time, otherwise the Display settings wouldn't be treating your primary display as a secondary.
IF you open your System Preferences>Displays (-System Preferences) and click "Gather Windows" it should pull everything to the display on which you clicked it.
