Safari will NOT allow me to stay logged into Yahoo.

What gives? Yahoo has a feature that allows a user to stay logged in for 2 weeks, but every time I shut off safari I am logged out.
If I use firefox I stay logged in, but I really would prefer to use safari.
Any one else having this problem?

Since none of the usual fixes seem to resolve this issue, it looks as though it's something at the system level, but I don't know what that would be.
The only suggestion I have at this point is to apply the 10.5.4 Combo Update (even if you've already done it before) and that may fix this problem. Just be sure you have a backup of all your critical files and programs before you do this, just in case the unthinkable happens.

I recently upgraded firefox to 27.1 and it will not allow me to go log into my college website. It is also incredibly slow, what do I do?

I was previously able to log into humboldt.edu with the old version of fire fox, I finally upgraded because I was getting pestered with pop up windows saying I had to upgrade so I eventually gave in. Now, I am having to deal with scripts and manually having to block or unblock pages (which by the way is frustrating and I hate it, considering that I have no idea what I am doing) and I still cannot log into the one website that is vital in my life right now. I need this fixed now!

What is the block/unblock issue? Is this Firefox's setting that blocks "mixed active content" on secure sites? (Shield icon in the address bar; see [[How does content that isn't secure affect my safety?]])
Some users with McAfee security software have reported a lot of new problems with the SiteAdvisor add-on. This thread has more information on that issue: [https://support.mozilla.org/questions/988401 How do I turn off McAfee SiteAdvisor ?]
Regarding slowness, some users are experiencing problems with an update to the graphics rendering technology. This thread has an extensive (and admittedly confusing at times) discussion of what people have been trying: [https://support.mozilla.org/questions/985969 Firefox is unbearably slow after updating to version 27]. If you try anything there, please keep notes on the results in case you need to backtrack or so we can suggest next steps if those things did not help.

My Safari will not allow me to open my Google calendar with Google Apps. I have to open my email with the older version of Google Apps. This happened after I installed 5.1.4. I tried to use the fix of changing to 64 bit by unchecking the 32 bit box no go

I assume that there are legal restrictions on the way in which iTunes can get artwork automatically from any source apart from the iTunes Store (which is what the right-click > Get Album Artwork function uses). For example, even though the Gracenote service that iTunes uses to match CDs and retrieve metadata (artist, album, track titles, etc.) also has artwork functions, iTunes does not make use of these.
For manual addition of artwork, there are three cases where the image you select may not be correctly embedded in your media files:
your media are in a format that doesn't accommodate embedded artwork - typically WAV files. To embed artwork you'll need to convert to another format - Apple Lossless or AIFF if you want to preserve lossless quality, AAC or MP3 otherwise.
your media files are read only - to fix this, use Windows Explorer to find the folder that contains your files, right-click and select Properties. On the General tab there's a check box labeled "Read-only" - if this is checked, or is grey (sometimes blue), click the box so that the flag is unchecked and the box is white. Click OK, and then OK again when the "Apply changes to this folder, subfolders and files" option selected. Now try adding the artwork again.
Windows permissions issues are preventing iTunes from updating your media files (there's some anecdotal evidence of a change in this behavior in iTunes 12). See turingtest2's notes on Repair security permissions for iTunes for Windows for advice on fixing this, then try adding the artwork again.

Safari will not allow attachments to be sent in webmail

Recently, (since upgrading to 10.4.4, I believe - but am not positive) I have found that Safari will not allow me to send mail with attachments during any form of webmail. . .either Mail in .Mac, Yahoo, or my workplace's Microsoft Exchange mail. When I attempt to attach a file, I get the following message from Safari (as an example; this is for Yahoo):
Safari can’t open the page “http://attach.mud.mail.yahoo.com/us.f352.mail.yahoo.com/ym/Attachments?YY=54979”. The error was: “POSIX error: Invalid argument” (NSPOSIXErrorDomain:22) Please choose Report Bug to Apple from the Safari menu, note the error number, and describe what you did before you saw this message.
Firefox and Camino can send attachments with no trouble. Any fixes for Safari for this problem?

The first thing I would try is to clear Safari's cache (Safari > Empty Cache).

Safari will not allow typing in search field

Installed Lion ok. Now safari will not allow typing in the search field, Turned extensions off, same issue. Selected different search engines, same issue. It did work for a while. Can't figure it out. Thanks

Looks like my error. I was trying to select the search engine and type over it. You can just type and it goes away. Sorry for the post.

After installing ios5 and having had to change my apple id to e-mail address I am unable to download updates as they were purchased under my previous id and it will not allow me to get back into the old id Help please.

After installing ios5 and having had to change my apple id to e-mail address I am unable to download updates as they were purchased under my previous id and it will not allow me to get back into the old id Help please.

Make sure you enter your new Id in settings/message, settings/facetime. ANy content that you downloaded with the old ID is forever linked to that old ID and if you have apps that were downloaded with the old ID and you want to update them you can only do that with the old ID. You could delete those apps and downlad them again ( and pay for them if they are not free apps)

Safari will not allow me to log in to Just Energy account

Attempts at logging into https://www.justenergy.com/MyAccount/ fail to complete (submitting the login has no effect or error message). The same login url and method works when I use Firefox (for Mac OS X). I would prefer to use Safari to manage my Just Energy bill payments but, until this compatibility is fixed, I will have to continue to use Firefox. I have contacted Just Energy support on this issue 4 times or more over the last three years but have yet to see them fix things on their end. Any chance Apple can fix this? I've also tried switching the User Agent setting to Firefox located in the Develop menu in Safari but this hasn't resolved it either. Please let me know if Apple Safari Support is interested in coming up with a fix or workaround (other than using Firefox of course).

Sorry, only Microsoft Windows and Internet Explorer support ActiveX.

Firefox 3.6.6 will not allow Windows 7 to log off or shut down

I have a HP DV6 laptop (32 bit) with Windows 7. Firefox 3.6.6. seems to work well but the computer became slow and unresponsive and it will not log off, shut down or restart unless in safe mode. I uninstalled FF 3.6.6. and Adobe Flash 10 and now it works fine. On my Compaq Desktop (64 bit) with Windows 7, FF 3.6.6. and Adobe Flash work just fine.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I upgraded to FF 3.6.6 and Adobe Flash 10 ==
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/4.0; GTB6.5; SLCC2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; Media Center PC 6.0; OfficeLiveConnector.1.5; OfficeLivePatch.1.3; .NET4.0C)

I had same problem where Firefox 3.6.8 would not start or open. Spent many hours trying different things to fix it. Uninstall of previous version and reinstall did not make any difference. Finally, after uninstalling Firefox, I searched for Firefox folders and files on my computer, deleted and removed all Firefox folders and files - deleted anything and everything related to Firefox so that it will be as if I was going to download Firefox for the first time ever. Then, using another browser, I downloaded Firefox 3.6.8 and installed it. It could be that some Add-Ons or something else from the older version of Firefox or profile was interfering with the new one. It was easier to delete remove everything and install all over again clean than to figure out which part was causing the problem.
Keep in mind, when you delete all Firefox folders and files from your computer, you are deleting all your bookmarks and all your Add-ons. If you want to keep those bookmarks, you might want to save the URLs someplace safe to bookmark them again before deleting them. You need to re-install the Add-ons also. Upon installation, it asks if you want to import bookmarks and settings from another browser or settings you might have. I imported them from my other browser. Now, Firefox works. I also installed up-to-date Add-ons.
I hope this helps. Always keep more than one browser functioning on your computer, just in case one fails.

Safari will not allow connection to your site and this is the only search engine on my Ipad

Could you please advise how I can download your Firefox search engine. I am not able to use anything other than Safari which is the pre-installed Apple search engine on my IPad.

Please read the follow thread, Apple does not allow Firefox to be installed in iPad.

Safari will not allow pictures/photos

I cannot work out how to change safari settings to allow graphic/photos etc
When using safari. Everything is blocked except for text.

Hi...
On your iPad? I ask since you posted in the Safari for Mac OS X forum.
Try this...
Tap Settings > Safari
Then tap Clear History
Then tap Clear Cookies and Data
Then restart your iPad.
Hold the power button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off. After it is off, press the power button to turn it back on.

Safari will not allow me to login to ebay ??

Today i updated my software (Jaguar) to Tiger 10.4.11 as well as all of the software updates from apple. Since i have done this, i can no longer use Safari and Ebay, either for searching or selling ? Everytime i try to login, i enter my name and password and the screen flashes briefly, looks like it's going to work, and then refreshes a blank login page again. I was able to login and get to "my Ebay" after a restart of safari, but as soon as i click on "buy" to search for an item, i am immediately logged out.
I have just spent the last 5 hours trying every fix that anyone has suggested online, but so far, nothing has worked.. except, using the developer menu and changing the user agent to "firefox windows" did help for awhile but still wasn't a complete success .. and it seems strange that i would need to do this.
If anyone has any ideas for me, i would love to hear them. I have always liked Safari .. and i would prefer a fix to a complete switch over to firefox. I do really like Firefox, but i've had some troubles with using it with ebay as well.

eBay does not support Safari in all functions.
See this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1709553&tstart=0
However, the short answer and solution is:
Buy with Safari
Sell with Firefox

Using the electronic filing feature in federal court safari will not allow me to upload my documents for filing

I am an attorney and required to efile my documents in the federal court. Up to about 3 weeks ago I was able but now safari won't let me upload my word docs to file them. I was told that I have to go to the settings option and uncheck where it says "only allow or selct jpeg files". I have looked and looked and cannot find where to do this. Can anyone help?

There is no such setting in Safari. As far as I know, PACER will only accept documents in PDF format. That's certainly the only kind it will display. Convert the documents to PDF and file them.

On my iPhone 4 safari will not allow firefox app to download why?

Why can't I download needed firefox app on my iPhone 4 using safari?

iPhone 3G is Old technology. When it was launched it had iOS 2.0. Currently, the highest it can go is iOS 4.2.1 and therefore can not handle many newer applications. As you have recorded, it is giving good service for which it has been designed.
Needless to say, if you want to use applications as stated, you must have at least 3GS, whose current is iOS 6.1.2. On the lighter side; Rather than updating iOS they are asking you to update iPhone (Technology). Cheers
