Safari Problems?  Here's how to fix it!!

Finally, I've fixed my computer after Safari has been causing numerous problems with it. No more spinning beach ball. What you have to do is start up your computer with the original Tiger disk, and then do a "reinstall" while also "archiving" your old files. It saves all your preferences, but allows you take a couple of steps back before having the problems with Safari. Once you do this you'll get a speedier computer, and can dump your "previous files" that you don't need anymore. I stumbled on it, but it has fixed the issues I have been having for two weeks. I highly recommend it. Good luck!!

Hello Robert:
What you describe is an archive and install - one of the three ways to upgrade. Actually, I suggest that approach as the way to upgrade - and if one is having problems - one way to install a fresh copy of OS X.

    Although you say you have let the battery drain, was it for long enough? Since nothing else that you've tried so far has worked, I suggest that you leave the iPod unplugged for at least four days, preferably a week. That way, if something is stopping the iPod from turning the screen on, then whatever it is will drain the battrey. However, since the screen isn't on, that may take longer than if the screen was on.
    Then, after that time, plug the iPod into a power source and leave it alone for at least thirty minutes. Only after thirty minutes will it show any signs of life, but you should leave it until it is fully charged before trying to use it.
    If you get to this stage, the fact that the battery has drained will cause the iPod to reset when it springs back to life.
    Let us know how you get on.

    Hello Steven.
    There have been similar reports, yes. You may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
    If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

  • I purchase songs from Itunes and as soon as I sync my phone, the song gets deleted. Does anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it?

    I purchase songs from Itunes and as soon as I sync my phone, the song gets deleted. Does anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it?

    I have random songs that a have paid for but they just disappear, or cannot be downloaded and so on. Sometimes they are indexed wrongly, and can't be found because of that, no work around because also the search function of itunes has gotten totally unusable. Not much fun to be an apple user anymore. I once used to be a very loyal user. My first apple was a Macintosh SE and an image writer II.

  • Want to set a default zoom level for safari?  Here's how you do it.

    If you like to set a default zoom level for safari so you don't have to hit Ctrl+ (or Ctrl-) every time you start Safari and open a new tab, here's how you can do that. This should work on Safari for mac, too:
    1) create a file named defaultzoom.css (or any name you like, just make sure it has a css extension.)
    2) copy and paste in the following:
    body {
    zoom: 130%;
    change 130 to whatever number suits you. >100 means zoom in, <100 means zoom out. Don't forget the % percent sign!
    3) in safari, go to Preferences > Advanced. Under style sheet, select Other... and point to the file you created.
    4) you may need to restart safari for the change to take effect.
    Voila. Hope that helps someone.

    Yes you are right!
    This CSS zooming is a crude hack. I think it basically treats a web page like a pdf document where you just enlarges everything.
    When you zoom manually, safari does a smarter sort of zoom where it enlarges but tries to keep widths of the elements the same size, reflowing text where needed and scrolling only when necessary.
    If the web page has a fixed size that is smaller than your browser window, like this forum, css zoom works ok. But with a page like gmail, which has no width constraint, you get into trouble.
    Hmm, wait, I just checked out wiki, which also uses up all available screen real estate, but does NOT have this problem.
    Notice in gmail, even if you zoom way out below what should be 100%, the login is still off the screen. The font gets real small but the width of the page stays the same. The css zoom basically "sticks" and isn't completely reversible.
    Bottom line: you have to decide which is more annoying: having to hit Ctrl+ for every tab you open, or running into some problematic pages.
    On Windows, I use autohotkey (a kdb and mouse macro scripting program) to switch off the CSS on the fly when I need to. I think Mac has similar capability built in, right? If I were really clever, I guess I could program autohotkey to send a few ctrl+ whenever it detects a new window or tab in safari, but I'm not there yet.
    Bottom bottom line: Apple needs to add this feature. It's a pretty basic accessibility feature. Doesn't Apple have like an accessibility guru/advocate?

  • Dv7 -4295us Lost It's Coolsense App? Here Is How I Fixed Mine.

    HP dv7-4295us
    Windows 7, 64 bit
    After a recent HP Support Assistant (HPSA) software update, my DV7 lost the CoolSense application. This is a useful app for me because I use my laptop for a lot of number crunching, and it often stays on all day too. With CoolSense gone, my CPU temps were higher than I liked, so how to get it back?
    Reading through these forums told me that other people were having the same problem, on other laptop platforms that is, after HPSA was last updated. As I thought about it, I realized the same was true for me.
    A few related threads gave me the framework for the solution. But after a few false starts I realized these solutions were for other HP laptops, and not mine. So I could not follow their instructions literally.
    So here is how I got my CoolSense back.
    1)      In Control Panel, Programs and Features, delete HP Software Framework. Reboot.
    2)      In Control Panel, Programs and Features, delete HP Support Assistant. Reboot.
    3)      Delete any shortcuts to CoolSense or ThermalManager in your Start Menu listings.
    4)      This is important. Go to the DV7 HP Support webpage, and download and install HP Software Framework 4.1.6.1, which is SP53546.exe. Reboot.
    5)      Go back to the DV7 HP Support webpage, and download and install HP Support Assistant 6.1.12.1, which is SP54620.exe. This version has CoolSense on it. The newer version, 7.0.39.15, that was on my laptop, does not have it.
    6)      At this point, CoolSense was back on my laptop, Hurray!
    Now be sure to set up the HPSA to ask you to install updates and not automatically install them. I will skip any updates of the HPSA program itself, until HP includes CoolSense in them.
    I hope this works for any of you DV7 owners having the same problem I had.

    Thank you for the fix!  I rely on my CoolSense also...Cant wait to try it....God I hope the hp support site still offers that when I get there...I have dv7-6195...

  • Can't install silverlight - anyone else had this problem and knows how to fix it?

    Trying to install Silverlight 5.0 on Firefox 11.0 (Mac OSX Lion). No matter how many times I try to install it (having uninstalled using MacKeeper), I still get the same message telling me I need to install it.
    Has anyone else had this issue and knows how to solve it please?
    thanks
    GLC

    I've had the same problem. I'm sure it was caused by a MacKeeper cleaning operation. Here's how I solved it:
    Download and install EasyFind from DevonTechnologies.com:
    http://www.devontechnologies.com/products/freeware.html
    You can also install it from the App Store.
    Launch the app and make sure to enable the following settings on the left-hand side of EasyFind:
    Search for: Files & Folders
    Operator: Phrase
    Comparison: Ignore Case
    Include: Package Contents
    Include: Invisible Files & Folders
    Then chose your Mac hard disk that contains your system on the upper right-hand side of EasyFind (directly below the search field.)
    Enter "silverlight" in the search field and hit Enter. The files and folders will start to populate the window below the search field. When the search is complete, select all of the found items and click the Delete button in the toolbar.
    NOTE: REMOVAL OF PROTECTED FILES: Some items cannot be deleted because they require your administrator password. Those items will remain in the list. Right/Ctrl click each of those files and chose Reveal in Finder from the submenu. A new Finder window will open displaying the file. Right/Ctrl click on the file and chose Move to Trash. You will then be asked for your admin password. After you provide it, the item will be moved to the trash.
    To be on the safe side, I restarted my Mac, downloaded a fresh copy of Silverlight, quit Firefox, and performed the install. When I relaunched Firefox and navigated to Netflix, Silverlight played the movie properly.
    (See attached JPG for more info.)
    I hope this helps,
    Matt

  • Success with sorting Compressor Leopard S L O W encode problem - here's how

    Hi all,
    After struggling for a LONG time and picking up some tips here on the way, I finally got Compressor encoding in a reasonable time on Leopard - before it was taking DAYS to compress to H.264 - it would just crawl along at a brain numbingly slow pace and I knew something was wrong.
    Not knowing any better I'd done an upgrade from Tiger to Leopard and then had this huge slowdown in compressor.
    here's how I solved it.
    1. Followed the steps in the Apple KB article
    (Also summarised here http://www.scottsimmons.tv/blog/2008/01/11/compressor-hatred-resolved/ )
    That wasn't enough on it's own, however. I tried it about 4 times to no avail.
    2. Even though I wasn't having 'can't connect to queue' or QMaster issues I still did the prefs change listed here
    http://www.extreme-nepal.com/forumboards/Qmasterfix.png
    And lo and behold I am now getting decent encode times again under Leopard.
    Hope this helps someone.
    Regards
    Dave

    Hi MollyPhloot07,
    I'm glad you found the coupons.com app and you might also want to take a look at the GroceryIQ app from the same company.  Please note that at this time, printing is only support from iPad to HP wireless inkjet printer.  That's most likely the reason why your Canon isn't displaying when attempting to print.  The other way to go might be emailing the coupons you want to your email address, then open that email and print from a conventional desktop or laptop computer.
    Hope this helps!
