Safari Vs. Opera/Explorer

In a simple form they can explain to me so that in Safari certain pages Web do not work whereas in It operates or You explore work correctly.

Hi
Yes, there are certain web sites that do not work well in Safari, but work OK in other browsers. The problem usually points to poor coding practices by web site developers, which do not meet Safari code standards.
Also, some web sites, such as Yahoo Beta Mail, do not work in Safari because Yahoo has yet to develop the code to make the feature compatible with Safari.
Lastly, some web site pages will not work at all on any browsers on the Mac Platform. These sites are using code only compatible with Windows/PC.
It's a good practice to have more than one browser available to cover the first two types of situations.
Here's a list of available browsers (Microsoft's Internet Explorer is not on the list, as Microsoft, since 2003, no longer supports the browser).
Firefox 2.0.4
Camino,
Mozilla,
Opera,
Shiira,
OmniWeb (shareware).

  • Flash files not displaying in Firefox, Safari, and Opera. Most recent Shockwave installed, private b

    Flash files not displaying in Firefox, Safari, and Opera. Most recent Shockwave installed, private browsing active in Firefox?  Works perfectly in Chrome and Internet Explorer.  HELP!!!!

    I suppose it would have helped if you knew what it was supposed to look like!   I'm using Shockwave Flash 11.7.700.169  and the version of Firefox I'm on is 20.0
    When you see it in Firefox  - do the thumbnail populate the grid?  See attached populated and un-populated.
    Populated grid is with Chrome.
    Thanks!
    Thanks in advance!

  • When ever I try to watch any video, from a link or YouTube say, using Firefox, I get a message 'An error as occurred. Please try again later'. It has been this way for some weeks. I don't have this problem using Safari or Opera.

    I believe that our “Werbung problem” adds an additional second hyperlink to the pop-up window. This second link is activated whenever you trigger a saved hyperlink to a Mail.com site.
    I had the same problem and eliminated it by deleting all bookmarks, hyperlinks and automatic links that take firefox to a mail.com address. So I just deleted all bookmarks I had saved for mail.com. I also changed my home page link because it also went to my email at mail.com. I then did a warm boot, opened firefox and re-saved my bookmarks and homepage to the desired addresses. Good luck.

    I have noticed that web page images display differently in Safari than in Explorer on a PC. On a PC, the web page may display three images side by side. In Safari, I might get two images side by side and the theid image below. Is there any correction for this? Thanks.

  • Page not displaying in Safari and Internet explorer but showing up in Mozila

    Hi,
    I bought this pre-made template which I would like to use for my website. When I upload it to my website and try to open the pages like "Contact us", "News", "Team members" and so on, they are not displaying in Safari and Interner Explorer, but they DO show up in Mozilla. Also, the pages I created myself do show up in all browsers. I really need to fix this problem as I already put a lot of effort to create my web site and now it is not working online. I would really appreciate some help. Here is the link to the original template:

    The tag should read "myself" (no quotes) not "_self".

    For cross OS browser compatibility (and no "embed" tag code) you should consider using javascript:

  • IPad cookies not saving in Safari or Opera?

    I've been trying to help a friend of mine... He has an iPad and has tried both Safari and Opera, but websites never remember him (guessing due to cookie issues?).
    His browser settings are set to allow cookies, does anyone have any suggestions on another issue that may cause this?

    Could be a problem between 1st party cookies and 3rd party cookies, if the sign in process is somehow dropping a 3rd party cookie Safari may well be refusing this.

  • Safari and Internet Explorer won't run on my iMac G4 anymore (OS 10.2.8)

    I cant get Safari or Internet Explorer (IE) to work on my iMac anymore. I can get iTines downloads and standard updates, but Safari and IE won't work - usually Safari will open (IE will usually not open completely - hangs up and must be force quit). Safari will hang up when loading a web page. Any ideas?

    Try deleting the preference files for each.
    Go to Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences and delete com.apple.Safari.plist and com.microsoft.explorer.plist.

  • Flv won't play in safari or opera???

    I am trying to add a video to this site:
    http://www.ld-ink.com/Millennium/index.html
    The video plays in Firefox, IE, and Google Chrome.
    It does not play for me in Safari of Opera.
    Can anyone give me some assistance as to why this is happening? When I preview the page from Dreamweaver in Safari or Opera, it works. When I load it up on the server, and check it on the web in those browsers, it doesn't.
    HELP!
    (PS - there is no sound with this video).
    Thanks,
    PT

    I searched what that was - and the answer is no. I added the video file as follows: Insert>Media>FLV>browse, etc... used the first skin they gave me.
    I have no idea why those two browsers won;t play it, but they don't. I even installed safari on my pc , and it doesn't work, so it's not an issue with my Mac.

  • Updating Safari or Internet Explorer on my new mini

    I just purchased a new Mac Mini. Unfortunately, I used manager assistant incorrectly and transferred everything to my new Mini. Because of that, my desktop and icons look exactly like my old Mac. Also, Safari and Internet Explorer are the same versions as on my old Mac. I can't even open up some web pages with this version of Safari. Surely I did something wrong. Please help me!!!

  • Is there a way to change my user agent from Safari to Internet Explorer?

    Hello All,
    I need to fill out a application on line and it appears that it does not recognize Safari.  Sounds like it needs to see IE.  Anyway to temporarily enable IE for this application?  Otherwise I have to go use a PC at the local library....
    These instructions below in no way match my Snow Leopard 10.6.8 on my iMac - they don't make sense to me.  Any help/guidance is appreciated to fill out this on-line form.  Thanks!
    Apple Safari
    If using Safari, you must have Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher version or Firefox 2.0.0.12 - Macversion web browser at the "User Agent" category or higher for Firefox. Use the following instructions to configure your Safari browser to access e-QIP.
    On the Menu Bar
    Select Edit box (top of screen)
    Preferences
    Security
    Accept Cookies (only from site that you navigate to)
    Advanced
    Check the box labeled "Show Develop Menu in Menu Bar"
    Click proxies - Change settings box (Opens to Internet Explorer (IE) Properties Boxes)
    Advanced tab
    Security category is located near bottom of page
    Click "Do not save encrypted pages to disk"
    Click "Empty Temporary Internet Files folder when browser is closed"
    Click/enable SSL 2.0
    SSL 3.0
    TLS.1
    Exit Preferences Window
    On Menu Bar select "Develop User Agent"

    John..
    This may work but no guarantees ..
    Launch Safari. From the Safari menu bar top of your screen click Safari. From the drop down menu click Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
    Select:  Show Develop menu in menu bar
    Now from the Safari menu bar again, click Develop > User Agent
    Try IE 7, 8, or 9.

  • Safari and Internet Explorer

    I just purchased a Mac Mini and this is the first Mac. I have owned but have worked with them at work. I've come to a small issue with Internet Explorer and Safari. I would prefer to use I.E. however, when in I.E. and I goto www.securecomputing.com (The top menu bar shows doubles) if I use Safari it doesn't. If in I.E. and I goto www.search.com, I don't see the Search logo at the top. If I use Safari I do. Whats going on in I.E. ? Anyone have any ideas ? If you have any ideas please e-mail me direct to: [email protected]

    Music urls ending in asf are actually scripts calling up the music. Some of these scripts work on the Mac, but some web sites incorporate proprietary Windows-only technologies or else call up music containing Microsoft's Windows-only digital rights management. Sometimes you can look at the source code for the web page and find the address for the actual music file or radio station and you can then cut and paste it into Windows Media Player. If the file does not contain DRM, it should play.

  • Safarie, Camino, Opera ......ALL Crashing! What Am I Doing Wrong

    Hi All,
    Please Help........I have tried Safari (1.3), Opera(9.64.5270), and Camino(1.6.7) ......using each one as a browser with 10.3.9 .....
    (I'm trying to upgrade from OS 9.2 on an old G4 Digital Audio tower, for use by the children for email and internet)
    ......and cannot get either of these browsers to stay up, ....each crashes within about 10 seconds of startup.
    I've repaired Permissions, and trashed preference "PLIST" files for each of the browsers. Still no joy!
    I'm connected via Ethernet cable to a 2Wire DSL modem and writing this email via my iMacG5, which is also connected to the 2Wire modem. I have no reason to suspect the modem which works fine with the iMac.
    Any suggestions, set up on preferences?.....funny that each of these browsers are doing the same thing. Should I go back to OS 10.2.4 ? Safari seemed to work fine with that OS.
    Thanks in advance,
    BoBo

    Bee,
    Thanks for responding.
    The crash report comes up in a pane which is a "mile long", and asks if I want to "send it to Apple".....this is what I think you are asking for?
    Do you really need the entire report, OR.....the last line or two?
    How do I do this?..... I can highlight the entire report, but I cannot then COPY/PASTE the crash report details, all I can do is a screen capture of the last few lines, and then somehow get the screen capture transferred to this iMac for posting on this forum.
    Like I mentioned, I do not have internet or email on the G4, ....I would have to type it manually into this iMacG5 to send it to you.
    The last line or two goes something like this:
    0x96cb0000 - 0x96d9efff libiconv.2.dylib /usr/lib/libiconv.2.dylib
    0x96ee0000 - 0x96ee8efff libbsm.dylib /usr/lib/libbsm.dylib
    0x96e0000 - 0x976c6fff com.apple.WebCore 1.1 (315)/System/Library/
    Frameworks/WebKit.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/WebCore.framework/

    Does this help?
    Thanks,

  • Forwarded to godaddy domain. works on safari but not explorer or firefox

    I finally figured how to use my website so that when you type in the domain it redirects to the mobile me website. However, it is working just great on safari but not on explorer or firefox.

    I have always used GoDaddy's forward and masking utilities and its worked great. When Apple updated iWeb to 08 with the ability to auto forward, I had lots of issues and thus went back to setting up my GoDaddy preferences to auto-forward and mask my site. GoDaddy has the very best phone support on the planet which makes up for one of the worst websites on the internet. Call them up and have them walk you through auto-forwarding and masking. Check out my site at: www dot jennifersheehan dot com. Hope that helps
