Safari won't let me use first letter in word in dropdown list

When I'm in a page with a dropdown list, Safari won't letter me type the first letter key to narrow down my selection. If, for example, I'd like to find Denmark, I can normally click on the D key. I know Safari for Mac allows that.

I can't do it either - possibly an as-of-yet unimplimented feature in this beta release.

Select distinct using LINQ and bound to a dropdown list with id and display name

Hi,
On one of my sharepoint page, I want to populate dropdown list with countries, namely
<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlCountry" runat ="server"></asp:DropDownList>
In the code, I use LINQ:
var country = (from p in dc.ProvCountries
select p.country_code ).Distinct();
ddlCountry.DataSource = country;
ddlCountry.DataBind();
I want the country_code to be the ID, while the country_name will be the display name in the dropdown, how can that be done?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
The following code for your check.
using System;

list.Add(new ProvCountries { country_code = "202", country_name = "C" });
list.Add(new ProvCountries { country_code = "202", country_name = "D" });
var country = (from p in list select new { p.country_code, p.country_name }).DistinctBy(p => p.country_code).ToList();
ddlCountry.DataSource = country;

Using an Array to Populate a DropDown List

Using LCD 8
Want to populate one dropdown list - with up to 24 items - based on a radio button selection.
If RBG== 1, then display dropdown list with values pertaining to value "1".
I have the dropdown list working.
(rinse and repeat)
However, I have coded each 'addItem' with a value.
So, if I have 3 radio buttons - I code for 72 different 'addItems'.
There is also a very good chance that some selections will only result in 3 values - where as other selections may yield 12 or 24.
I want to use global variables as an array (I think) and then be able to loop through these variables and populate the dropdown list with each pass of the loop.
This reduces the code from '72 lines' to 'very few lines').
The variable values for each RBG value are set in a script object.
How do I use/declare an array for my variables??

Sorry about that. I had the link ready to paste but neglected to do so: http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/getting-external-data-into-acrobat-x-javascript
The idea is that you can read in data from an external or attached file, but it will need to be a different format such as XML, tab-delimited text, or CSV, which can all be exported from a spreadsheet.

Safari Won't Scroll After Using Swipe Gesture

This just began a few days ago. Not sure if it's associated with a recent update...
If I try to use the two-fingered swipe to go back a page in Safari not only doesn't the page change, but I get a distorted page that looks as though there were two Safari windows overlapping. In the past, failure to swipe long enough would result in the page starting to move but snapping back into place. Now there is no movement, but this overlapping happens. To the left you can see anywhere from 2/16 to 1/2 inch of repeated/overlapping image. On the right, the scroll bar disappears (or, if the overlap is narrow, becomes nearly invisible). Once this happens the page cannot be scrolled up or down by any means. Refreshing the page or entering a new URL has no effect. The problem persists on every subsequent page loaded. Sometimes closing all windows and then opening a new window will clear it up -but usually I have to completely quit Safari. The problem is easily replicated in Safari on any website, but doesn't appear when I use a different web browser, so I am assuming it's a problem with Safari rather than my trackpad.
Quitting Safari is a very inconvenient workaround. Does anyone else have this problem? Any ideas for a solution? I've already reported it as a bug to Apple...
Thanks!

UPDATE: After posting it occurred to me to try some troubleshooting on my own. (I know, I should have done that before posting...)
A restart of the computer did not solve the problem, but zapping the PRAM seems to have cleared it up. At least, since the PRAM reset I can once again use the swipe gestures without crashing Safari. Fingers crossed that it stays fixed.
Just in case someone doesn't know that one: For us old codgers this is called "zapping the PRAM" but nowadays it's "resetting the NVRAM".
Shut down the computer, turn it on again and immediately press and hold the COMMAND, OPTION, P and R keys, let the chime go two more times (for a total of three after the restart) then release all the keys. The computer will finish rebooting. Most instructions will tell you to let go after the second chime, but waiting for the third does no harm, and sometimes succeeds where two doesn't. (Mac For Dummies says "power users" swear by five, or even six chimes...) This action is generally considered safe, but some advise disconnecting peripherals so they don't interfere in some way with the reset.

Safari 8.0 doesn't recognize the first letter in forms

Safari 8.0 constantly misses the first letter when typing messages on Twitter/Facebook or Search box on Amazon.
For example, when I want type "Hello" only "ello" comes out, then I have to go back and fill in "H".
i've never had this problem until Yosemite upgrade.
anyone else is having the same problem?
Thanks!

From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Autofill tab then click Edit to the right of: Other forms
If any websites are listed, click Remove All then click Done
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that didn't help, a Safe Mode boot deletes some system caches that may help.
Top left corner of your screen click the Apple  > Shut Down.
After your Mac shuts down, wait 10 seconds, then press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold down the Shift key. You should press the Shift key as soon as possible after you hear the startup tone, but not before.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple logo and progress indicator.
Once you are in Safe Mode, click the Apple  top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click: Restart
Then try Safari again.

How can I use more than 2 dependent dropdown lists

I would like to create a form using three level of dépendent dropdown lists.
Some examples exist with States dropdown list depending on a Country dropdown list. I would like to have a third level City depending on the choice made in the second list. Thanks for your help and sorry for my English

Hi,
I used the script from http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/js_list_combo_livecycle1 to create a two dependent drop-downs and then was able to extend this to three dependent drop-down lists. I have put an example up at https://workspaces.acrobat.com/?d=Ph1ZsLxdyeZk9dq9qovNeQ
Hope this helps,

Add multiple entries to dropdown list without using data dictionary

Hi,
By default when we use a data dictionary element for dropdown list, all the possible values are listed in the dropdown. However when no data dictionary element is used for the dropdown list, it behaves like a parameter with a single line.
I would like to know if it is possible to not use the data dictionary element and still have multiple lines in the dropdown.
Thanks in advance.

HT3678 Safari won't let QuickTime download on my ipad4?

I need QuickTime but safari won't let it download. I am using a iPad 4th gen with retina display. Any suggestions?

Hi Miranda,
I would be happy to! The Standard subscription is still processing, so I can't change it just yet. But processing should be complete soon, as you placed your order on the first, and it can take up to 48 hours. I'll swap it over for you as soon as I can and let you know when the swap is complete.
Best,
Sara

My iPhone 5 won't let me use my apps until I connect them with iTunes after downloading ios7. Solutions?

My iPhone 5 won't let me use my apps until I connect them with iTunes after downloading ios7. There's just a thing that pops up and says that in order to activate banners and push notifications I have to connect the app with iTunes. The thing won't go away no matter how many times I push ok, and it doesn't give me another option. Solutions?

Oh my gosh I had the EXACT same problem, and for ages I couldn't figure out how to fix it until today. Here's what I did:
First I went onto my computer, opened itunes, and un-installed tumblr, vine and kik. These were the apps I was having problems with (it said I had them on my phone but, like you, they didn't show).
Then I went to the itunes store, searched for each one, and it said I could update them so I did (just FYI: for tumblr a window popped up saying "please click ok to confirm you are 17 years or older", so I did that also)
When I went back to my phone and tried installing them again (still on my computer), it worked!
I hope this helps, because it was incredibly frustrating. Good luck!

Safari 7.0.2 (9537.74.9) crashes after typing first letter

This issue started about two days ago. Whenever I enter the first letter into Safari it crahses, prompting me to reopen the browser. It behaves normallly if i click on a bookmark. I just cannot key in anything anymore. It never behaved like this. Any solution or suggestion is welcomed. I really don't want to use Chrome ...
Thanks
Safari 7.0.2 (9537.74.9) on OS X 10.9.2, MacBook Air mid-2011

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports (not "Diagnostic and Usage Messages") for crash reports related to the crashed process. The report name starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report — they're very long and not helpful.

Windows Movie Maker won't let me use QT clips

I recorded some clips for a movie, but Windows Movie Maker won't let me use them! Is there any way to convert my Quick Time clips into clips for Windows Media player? Any Help is appreciated!
Windows Windows XP

Windows Movie Maker does not import MOV files as you surmised. Third party software is necessary to convert it for importation to WMM.
One such software(free) that works is: 'RAD Video Tools' from 'Bink and Smacker':
www.radgametools.com/bnkdown.htm
The RAD Video Tools software will allow you to convert MOV files to AVI files, which will import into WMM
A FAQ page on converting files w/the RAD s/w is here:
www.radgametools.com/binkhcon.htm
It may look intimidating at first but all you really need to do is:
1) Browse to your MOV file, select it, then click 'convert a file' at bottom menu.
2) Then in the new window that pops up, make sure the output file type is .AVI(the default output file type should be AVI), then click on 'convert' at right menu.
3) Import the newly created AVI file into WMM
Hope this is helpful,

Why won't Apple let you use a @me for Apple ID Primary email?

Hello everyone!
I already know that it is impossible at this point to change your primary Apple ID to a @me address. I have called Apple Support and they have already told me that it is not possible at this point.
Does anyone know why they won't let you use it?
Some people have told me that it is apart of your Apple ID, which i know it is. It is an alternate email address for it.
My problem is though is that all my purchases and Apple information goes to my old email address that got hacked.(My new one is the @me associated with my Apple ID)
Thanks
Ryan

If, as you said in your first post, there isn't an Apple Store you can get to, call Apple support and talk to them. As Tim suggested, it may be due to your having a repair order open already. If you call Apple, they should be able to get you set up.
Regards.

Ideas on how to use p:first-letter

Hi,
Any ideas on how to get the first letter in a paragraph
floating in the
text, to the left, so that the top of the letter lines up
with the top
of the first line, and the bottom of the letter lines up with
the bottom
of the third line?
For some reason I am not able to set the line-height of the
first-letter, so it starts in the wrong place.
Thanks!
Misha

Hmm does not look right on my firefox (mac 1.5). The drop cap
starts too
low (I think it is keeping the line-height or margin of the
paragraph). Looks worse in safari.
Odd that this is such a problem for good browsers. I think IE
gets it right.
