Safari not recognized by website-help

My Powerbook G4 cannot acess this site using Safari: http://newmls.gsmls.com/member/ It's a realty site. I checked with the site Admin and they seem a bit clueless. Claim they only support IE but aren't sure. I tried Firefox - didn't work. Any guru's out there have any suggestions? My wife needs it for a work application and as it stands I'd have to go out and buy a PC.... ack... HELP!!

You can change the user agent in Safari as well via the Debug menu, but all that does is change the calling card a browser uses when it accesses a site. It does not make the browser emulate the browser whose user agent you choose. ActiveX requires Internet Explorer for Windows - period.
Still, its worth a try in case this is one of the few real estate sites not using ActiveX.

I just bought a mac mini over the weekend. I saved items from my old G4 to an external hard drive. I go to plug in the external hard drive and the new computer is not recognizing it. Help.

I just bought a mac mini over the weekend. I saved items from my old G4 to an external hard drive. I go to plug in the external hard drive and the new computer is not recognizing it. Help.
Here is the information I have. The external hard drive is a 120GB Acomdata. It has both USB and Firewire. When I go to plug in to the mac mini through USB, it is not being recognized. When I switch to Firewire on the old computer I can see it, however when I go to USB it is not being recognized (even on the old computer).
I'm at a loss as to what to do. Any advice would be helpful.

Have you ever tried the FW 400 to 800 adapter?
I have used them on multiple occasions and they work just fine.
Try this (maybe you already have):
-Boot Mini with drive disconnected.
-Do not connect drive but turn it on
-wait a few seconds for drive to spin up
-plug cable into the Mini then into drive.
This is an old drive and may have some timing
issues.
I had an Acomdata drive a long time ago. It
worked fine with FW but USB was flakey.

Nano not recognized by Windows, help!

I just got a second generation Nano, but whenever I plug it into my USB port it will say the following message:
USB Device Not Recognized
One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize it.
I had a first generation Nano that had no problems syncing with iTunes, but that one got corrupted, so I resorted to getting a new one.
I have tried the Five Rs, erased iTunes entirely and redownloaded Version 7.3 by way of the Apple website, and I have gone to the Genius Bar at my local Apple store only to have them give me another Nano with the same results. I don't know what else to do! Please help!

Even if no new drivers are available for your computer, read the last section and update your USB driver.

Try a drive letter Z and do this with all other USB devices other than your keyboard and mouse disconnected (this includes disconnecting your printer).

External hard drive not recognized... help please.

okay, well here is the story:
my iBook G4 had its stock 30gb hard drive in it and it was running extremely low on space. so i figured i didn't want to carry around an external hard drive, therefore i would buy an internal hard drive an install it. so i purchased a new 2.5" 80gb hard drive and called up the local apple store. they told me that although it was under warranty, that it did not cover hard drive installation. so i looked it up online and found step by step instructions to install the hard drive. so after lots of hard work and many screws, i installed the new hard drive successfully... but i still had this perfect 30gb hard drive. i thought maybe to save a few bucks i could turn it into a usb external hard drive. i found an enclosure for the hard drive and a usb 2.0 cable and plugged it into my ibook. it was recognized and everything. i put some files on the external hard drive and transferred it to another mac. this is where the trouble started. i plugged the hard drive into a PowerMac G4, and it was not recognized... so i tried it on a different mac. this time on a PowerBook G4, but no luck. this issue has been troubling me for a few weeks. but then i tried it on a similar iBook G4... and it was recognized. but i don't know why it was only recognized only on the iBook G4 (not the same iBook G4 it was pulled out of) and no other macs.
does anybody have any ideas what we can do to get this hard drive to be recognized by other macs?
any of even the smallest ideas would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
tyler
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

I can walk you through formatting the hard drive:
1. Hook it up to an iBook that recognizes it.
2. Go into your Applications folder, then scroll down to Utilities. Open Utilities and scroll down a bit and you should see Disk Utility. Double-click.
3. On the left side you should see your internal hard drive and your external one. Each hard drive will have a sub-catagory with the partition indented.
4. Your external hard drive will probably be the second catagory. Click it.
5. In the center-top you should see the tabs First Aid, Erase, Partition, RAID, and Restore. Click the Erase tab.
6. You should see Volume Format: and then a drop down menu, and Name: and a text box. Type in the name you want the external hard drive to be named.
7. In the drop down menu, select Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
8. Then, simply click Erase, watch the progress and it should be good to go!!
Hope I helped you out. Oh, and it might be the enclosure...and also what OS's? Since it's USB it is probably using a USB Mass Storage driver. Mac-wise, if formatting doesn't help, I would get a FireWire enclosure because FireWire is much faster than just USB 2.0. Oh, thats nother thing...Is the enclosure Hi-Speed USB? If it isn't, I would definitely get a FireWire one...If it is, the PowerMac G4 doesn't have Hi-Speed so you're not taking full advantage..Just some insight

Keychain not recognizing some websites

Why does keychain not recognize some websites, the little popup asking for to save the user id and password into the keychain is not appearing.
For ex:
http://www.facebook.com/
http://login.live.com/login.srf (hotmail)

Presuming you have AutoFill enabled, in Safari preferences, save Usernames and Passwords, then I would suggest the consideration that some websites block this facility in web browsers to enhance security. These are usually financial / ebanking sites, but it may apply to others as well.

Earlier this morning. At first when I connected the usb to the computer I got the screen in the nano that said "apple.com/ipod/support" or something like that, with the folder/exclamation mark icon. It was charging but I disconnected it cause I had to go. I tried to do the same at night but this time is when it's totally dead, and not recognized at all. What can I do now?
I havent used the nano in a while and the battery is depleted, so I tried to charge it but neither windows or itunes or the updater/restore recognize it.
I'm on a laptop, I already tried most of the stuff in the faqs but it wont work.

i kind of have the same porblem, my klaptop does regcognize the ipod on "my computer" but the iPod dosen't shows up in iTunes, and i have tried almost everything in the faq that show how to fix the problem, but it still dosen't work....

My 1st gen iPad is not recognized in iTunes, help! I have uninstalled, reinstalled, stoped and started the mobile....nothing is working.

I have done everything I can find online to solve my problem, but I still have the same problem. My 1st gen iPad is not recognized in iTunes! Cannot sync! Please, any suggestions from anyone? Anyone else having the same problem?

Hello casinojen,
I would be concerned as well if my iPad was not recognized by iTunes. Thank you for providing all the information with the steps you took in regards to this issue. I found an article with a few more steps you can take (you can skip the steps you have already taken):

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Safari not slowing downloads. Help!

Why does safari not allow downloads. I am trying to download Microsoft office and it wil not allow it. Any suggestions?

Hello,
No, Microsoft Office is for Mac (Office 2011) running OS X, not iOS (which is what runs on the iPad and iPhone).
To open and edit Office documents, I recommend DataViz Documents to Go (http://www.dataviz.com).

Safari not recognizing flash

OS Snow Leopard, iMac Intel Core i3
Installed Flash version 11.1.102.62 restarted Safari, go to website needing Flash and it asks me to install Flash.
Checked user library internet plug-ins, is empty.
Checked system library internet plug-ins and Flash is there.
Restart Safari, check Help:Installed plug-ins and Adobe Flash is not listed.
Javascript and java are installed and enabled.
I installed Flash 3 times today, just to be sure.
Why does not Safari recognize the installed Adobe Flash?

You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

Safari not opening any website

Since two days safari is either extremely slow opening any website or doesn't open them at all.
My system is:
- Macbook Air 2011
- Mountain Lion
- Safari 6.04
I all my network settings. Everything seems to be normal, incl. Proxies, DNS etc. I even downloaded Safari and installed again. I deleted my browsing history, caches, I evenran a antivirus scan. Rebooted the system...nothing changed!
The problem also impacts some other applications, like Mail, Skype
I have Chrome installed and the same problem there as well. I opened my Windows 8 in Parallels and started Internet Explorer. That worked smoothly!!!
Seems like I'm out of options. At least for now I don't know what to do. Does anybody have any idea what the problem might be and how to solve it.
Thanks for any help.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Safari not connecting to websites

I am have problems with Safari connecting to certain servers. Most of the servers are Yahoo based. Either it connects, sort of, without pictures and sometimes slowness or it doesn't connect at all. A while back in the update notes for OS 10.8.1 it said that there was a fix to the problem of Airport express having difficulty connecting to websites with "long addresses". I am on 10.8.2 and am still having the problem.
I have contacted some of the website hosts and no one seems to know what is going on. They blame Apple's Safari. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I started having this problem right after I got my Airport express. I posted a notice in these forums about not being able to connect my Playstation 3 to it because it was not communicating to the Playstation network, (for the same reason). I managed to get that working but the Yahoo website problem did not go away. I also have the same problem using Firefox.
Another person mentioned having the same problem and it seemed they fixed it by doing this: System Preferences > Network > WiFi > Advanced > Hardware > Manually > MTU: Custom > 1300
I haven't tried this yet because I'm not sure if it will cause other problems, most likely not.

IPod say's "Do Not Disconnect" but still not recognized. Please help!!

Hi everyone.
Ok here's my situation.
Im using a MacBook Pro (Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5)
iTunes 11.4 (64Bit)
iPod 4th Gen. (White 20GB 'Click-Wheel')
After doing a system restore on my ancient dinosaur ipod 4th gen. (the white 20GB 'Click Wheel') and 'upgrading' to iTunes 11 i've had nothing but problems.
So now when i plug in my ipod it charges fine and even say's "Do Not Disconnect" *BUT* there is no 'on my ipod' button. I cant see my playlists, add songs, delete songs or anything! I just want to 'DOWNGRADE' my itunes and have everything how it was before. I find this to be a science project in itself and no amount of searching youtube videos gave me a clear answer, it only made me more afraid and confused of going forward with this.
I tried downloading 'sharepod' for MacBook Pro but this is pointless because it needs itunes to recognize the ipod for it to recognize the ipod. Ehh.
I did a 'system restore' on the ipod but when i went home where all my music is (on a windows PC) it said i have to do the restore again because it was restored on a MAC. So i did the restore again on my Windows PC (put all my music on it) and now i want to add songs from my MACBOOK Pro and its not even recognizing my ipod. Arrrgh the frustration i tell you!
Im done doing the system restore and i just want to add playlists now. Why is this soo difficult? Someone please help a newbie out. Im great with computers and feel like i honestly should have never upgraded the itunes in the first place because i feel this is what is causing my problem. I've heard the older gen. ipods dont work as well with the newer versions of itunes although im not sure if there is any truth to that or is it just rumors. Either way can somebody please take me on a step by step of what to do next? Please with a cherry on top?

Did you restart the Mac?
Did you reset the iPod using the two button combo?

If the above do not work, try putting the iPod into disk mode, and then connecting it to the Mac.
