Safari underlines all links in webpages, like My Yahoo!....hard to read

I'm a new Mac user and am used to browsing in Internet Explorer, which only underlines links on webpages when you roll your mouse over the links. I've gone through Safari preferences but can't seem to find any option for this. For me, it makes it hard to read webpages like My Yahoo! where it's all my news links set up. On lots of webpages it doesn't underline links. Any suggestions?

  • After updating my email wont get past the screen with all the mail options like icloud yahoo ect...

    I updated my Iphone4s and went to open my mail I have on my iphone @me.com account. I hit the mail icon and the screen that says "Welcome to Mail" accross the top comes up, I select icloud because thats what account I use, it promts me to enter my appleID and password, I do....this is where the problems happnes..... i get a message that says "This iClous account has already been added to your iphone" I hit OK and it goes right back to the first "welcome to mail" screen and i cant figure out how to just open my email?! I don't want to add any email I just want to check my email @me.com!!

    You won't be able to check your email without adding it, but if you're stuck at the welcome to mail screen, you should got to Settings>Mail Contacts Calendars and select your icloud account. Make sure that it's not asking you for a password or stuck on verifying.
    What I would do is select delete account from there and sign back into icloud

  • Safari 7.0 - Opening wrong links on webpages

    Safari Version 7.0 (9537.71) - When I click on links on webpages like Yahoo.com, Safari is opening up a different link from that same webpage than the intended link.
    This is happening on both an iMac and MacBook Air running the new OS Mavericks.

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
    If you wish, you may be able to salvage the errant extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.

  • Anyone else able to access store OK but all links inoperative?

    I have not seen this one before. I am able to access the music store no problem, but all links are acting like I am not even clicking on them (even though I am). Even the blue up/down scroll bar on the far right column is inoperative and not moving at all. Anyone else having this problem or have heard what is wrong? I could not even use the support link on the home page to get here to write this, but was able to do so through exiting out of the store and then just re-entering under my internet connection and punching in the Apple website.

    I had this problem
    decided to upgrade Itunes to the latest 7.0.2
    4 hours
    6 system restores
    5 uninstalls
    3 quicktime uninstalls and downloads later IT IS FINALLY WORKING!!!
    I went back to 6.0 as well then uninstalled and reinstalled quicktime and it seems like the problem is fixed ( fingers crossed)
    from my experience maybe uninstall and get the latest quicktime - that may work?

  • Automator: load webpage fully and open all links?

    Hi,
    In addition to this script: Applescript/Automator - Open all links on a webpage I'm able to open all links on a website, but I'm trying to open all links on a fancy website that keeps loading if I keep scrolling to the bottom and/or click on show more posts. I've tried loading my website fully, but automator only detects the "first page" of it. Don't know if that makes sense.
    Tried to save it as a web archive from Safari, but that doesn't do the trick, I just get an error and it doesn't detect any links... unless I'm doing something wrong. 
    Current workflow:
    Get Current Webpage from Safari
    Extract URLs from Text
    Get Link URLS from Webpages
    Filter URLs
    Run AppleScript

    You can use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
    *https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
    Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
    If you do not keep changes after a restart or otherwise have problems with preferences, see:

    Hey, Dynamite !
    Thanks so much for that ... what a 'dynamite' solution. It's so easy. I don't know how you people know all of these things ! But one last thing if you can help me - I've just switched over to Mozilla/Firefox from I.E., and now I cannot open my Hotmail from Mozilla/Firefox. I log in, it goes to my 'Inbox' page, but when I click on an Email letter to open it, nothing happens. I can't even go into 'Drafts' or 'Delete' or anything.

  • Safari 3.0: How do I force all links to open in tabs without using cmd?

    In a number of other browsers it's easy to set all links to open in tabs. I don't want any separate windows to open and I don't want to have to use the keyboard to force every single link into a tab.
    How do I get Safari to do strictly tabbed browsing?
    Thanks,

    Before posting the very same question, I searched first (like a good boy should) and found your post....which addressed the exact question I have.
    I'm in the process (of hopefully) of transitioning from years of using Firefox to Safari. The reason: I'm amazed at how quickly web pages open in Safari compared to Firefox.
    Anyway, after installing a few Safari add-ons, I'm feeling pretty good about the transion -- except for the fact that I NEVER want Safari to open anything in a separate window unless I specifically ask it to. Evidently, it's simply not designed to do this...

  • Director automatically open all the links of  webpage in the new window

    hi
    i want to design the application in director .when user enter
    the URL of any website then all links of web page open in the new
    window....
    for example ..if user type "
    www.Google.com" then all links(hypertext) of Google webpage
    automatically open in the new /separate window ...
    reply me how can i do this
    regards farhana

    Just off the top of my head you could use getNetText(URL) and
    netTextResult(netID) to get the HTML source of the web page as a
    string, parse the string for <a> tags, extract the href
    attribute to create a list of links, then use gotoNetPage using
    _new as a target to spawn a bunch of browser windows with those
    links. IMHO the result would be like getting spammed with dozens if
    not hundreds of popups but there is no reason why it wouldn’t
    work.

  • Using multiple desktops with a 4 finger swipe on a Mac Book Pro running Lion- is there a way that I can allow Safari open on several but not all??  Looks like I can set it for one but not others.  All, one, or nothing

    Using multiple desktops with a 4 finger swipe on a Mac Book Pro running Lion- is there a way that I can allow Safari open on several but not all??  Looks like I can set it for one but not others.  All, one, or nothing

    Hey Eric,
    Thanks for taking the time. Unfortunately no that does not solve it. Same as swipe it will get me there and it will show separate programs spaced out. The issue I am having is that all my open word files are bunched up in a pile on top of each other. I can see the edges of each one but I want them to be separated from each other enough that I can visually identify what file is what.
    Again, thanks for trying, it is appreciated.

  • Is there a way to 'Force all Links to be opened in New Tabs ' like Maxthon browser?

    Is there a way to get Firefox to 'Force all Links to be opened in New Tabs, like Maxthon browser does ? I really like this Maxthon feature but hate Maxthon as it has always has and continues to lock up all the time (what a pain!!)
    Hoping Firefox can do this. By the way I know if you right click a link and ask for it to open in a new tab it will. I want it to be automatic.
    Thank you

    Question already asked and answered.
    I gave an AppleScript and an other helper described a scheme relying upon standard features.

  • How to print all links in a webpage. IE has had this for over 10 yrs.

    This has been an option in IE since day 1, but I do not see any way to have Firefox print all links in a web page.

    Firefox Has an add-on called Download them all which will enable you to print all links in a webpage. Here is the link to the add-on:

  • I would like all links to open in the active tab, unless I command-click on the link.

    I've searched for answers to this question, and I was able to adjust the values for preferences in about:config so that all links open in the active tab, but after doing so I am unable to command-click to open a link in a new tab. Is there any way to change certain preferences so that command-clicking will override the browser.link.open_newwindow preferences? Or maybe there's some other way around this?
    This might seem like an odd request, but several sites I use (Tumblr especially) open nearly all links in a new tab by default, and it quickly gets out of hand. A "same-tab unless command-click" configuration would allow me to control where every link opens. Also, I would still like all links from external applications to load in a new tab.
    I'm using Firefox 32.0 on Mac OS X 10.9.4.
    Thanks

    Your request sounds similar to this old thread, except that you want a different setting for the third preference: [https://support.mozilla.org/questions/985943 How do I get when I click on a link it will not open in new tab? I want to open in the same tab where I clicked on that click.]
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste <strong>about:config</strong> and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste <strong>link.o</strong> and pause while the list is filtered.
    (3) Double click these to modify the values as desired:
    <strong>(A) browser.link.open_newwindow</strong>
    3 = divert new window to a new tab (<u>default</u>) (checked*)
    2 = allow link to open a new window (unchecked*)
    '''1 = force new window into same tab'''
    <strong>*</strong> First checkbox in Options &gt; Tabs
    <strong>(B) browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction</strong> - for links in Firefox tabs
    '''0 = apply the setting under (A) to ALL new windows (even script windows)'''
    2 = apply the setting under (A) to normal windows, but NOT to script windows with features (<u>default</u>)
    1 = override the setting under (A) and always use new windows
    <strong>(C) browser.link.open_newwindow.override.external</strong> - for links in other programs
    -1 = apply the setting under (A) to external links (<u>default</u>)
    '''3 = open external links in a <u>new tab</u> in the last active window'''
    2 = open external links in a <u>new window</u>
    1 = open external links in the <u>last active tab</u> replacing the current page
    Does that combination work?

  • Firefox5 is not showing BBC iPlayer Video & Radio Other browsers are all fine(Safari,IE,Chrome) The iPlayer webpage is all there but the flash video player is black. The OS is XPpro.

    Firefox5 is not showing BBC iPlayer Video & Radio.
    Other browsers are all fine(Safari,IE,Chrome)
    The iPlayer webpage is all there but the flash video player is black. The OS is MS Windows XP Professional 32-bit SP3.

    Also, when the flash video does not show up it displays the error that I do not have the current flash player. The problem is that I do have the current flash player that actually plays flash from another section of the website.
    Forgot to add that earlier.

    As with previous posts this is usually a DHCP issue and occurs frequently especially with routers connected to Cable Modems or those Micro-Cell towers.
    Unplug all Routers, AirPorts (or other off brand Wi-Fi broadcast units) and any other Wireless broadcast unit that might provide you with a WDS (often other AirPorts feeding off the signal of the AirPort closest to Cable/DSL Modem) and best to totally power down the Unit affected; lastly either hold a reset button on Cable/DSL modem for 30-45 seconds or actually power it down if an option (not suppose to power down Cable Modems that have Telephony for some odd never completely explained to me reason).
    Let Cable/DSL Modem re-boot till 'all green lights'. Then power up each device involved in order from closest to farthest waiting each time for completion of initiation. Micro-cell towers can take 10 minutes to completely re-boot and you must wait for across the board green lights in my experience. Even WDS can add a few minutes till all green on mother AirPort unit.
    Only NOW may you re-start the offending device and see if it will connect. Works about 99% of the time!
