Safari won't work with Webkinz site

My kids (and me) play games on the Webkinz site, but we can't successfully login through Safari, so we use Firefox. But, if we play a long time, Firefox "unexpected quits", and because we have dial up, it takes a long time to get logged back in and everything reloaded, as Firefox empties the cache when it quits. When trying to log in through Safari, the program seems to stall. When reading the loading information from the status bar, it loads about 36 of 41 items, and then nothing happens. I have tried Safari 4.0 on my PC, and it does the same thing - stalls at about 41 items. We use dial-up at home, but I have a fast connection at work on my PC.
The bottom line is I am trying to find a solution that doesn't crash. Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi QuickTimeKirk,
I have WMP version 9, as well. I do not use F4M, for many users f4mac is what helps.
I find some items work while others do not. I always get an alert about the wmp , which version it is, takes very long to load, I find it is not consistant with Safari, as seems the poster of this topic has found.

though 41 errors is not as poor as some, Firefox handles the site better than Safari, imo.
Some sites just work better with Firefox or an other browser.

    Safari won't work with CNN Pipeline and other sites all of a sudden? A few weeks ago Safari was working OK but now I often have to use Firefox to visit certain webpages.
    Anyone else having this same problem?
    Is there a quick fix?

  • Latest version of Safari won't work with my version of OS.

    I downloaded the latest version of Safari but it won't work with my version of OS (10.6.8). ***! It's pretty frustrating that my computer allowed me to download it without noticing it's not compatible--seems like a simple enough concept to check for that BEFORE effing someone up entirely.
    How do i revert back to the old version of Safari? I was using Chrome but it's become impossibly slow.
    Thanks!

    When you click on the proxy icon for an asset, does the "Search All Jobs" view show a "downloading" message indicating that the proxy is being transferred to your local machine?
    Also, what specific software versions (Quicktime and FCS) are you working with?

  • Safari won't open with Top Sites Anymore.

    I have gone to Safari Settings Preferences and changed what Safari opens with.  I change the home page to see if that would work but when I restart, it goes back to opening with Apple Page and all the settings I changed revert to what they were.  How can I get safari to open with top sites again?

    1. Go to: Safari > Preferences > General and set New tabs open with: Top Sites
    2. Go to: Safari > View and select Show Tab Bar

  • Firefox 5.0 won't work with mcafee site advisor-will this be fixed soon?

    When I downloaded firefox 5.0 it checks for incompatible add on etc. and it deleted mcafee site advisor which shows which web sites are safe to use. I went back to firefox 4.0 because it works with site advisor. I'd like to use the newest form of firefox, but want mcafee site advisor enabled. Will this be fixed?

    It will work again if McAfee does a full update...

  • Safari won't work with Adobe Shockwave plugin items on websites, despite...

    Safari won't play Adobe Shockwave files on websites, despite updating Shockwave in Safari. It works perfectly in Firefox. Is anyone else seeing this?
    I want to give you an example: Try these files on both Safari and Firefox. In Safari, you cannot even view the items that are supposed to be there. http://pdm6e.music.utexas.edu/p024-26.htm

    My Safari is no longer working with many sites.  However Chrome and Firefox work fine.  I would like to re-install Safari in an effort to clear up the problem I can not resolve.

    1. 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.
    2. Select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data...
    and confirm. Test.
    3. If the above steps don't resolve the problem, please describe it in more detail.

  • New version of safari won't work on mac 10.7.5, can't be removed, can't be replaced with old version

    new version of safari won't work on mac 10.7.5, can't be removed, can't be replaced with old version

    When I try to open safari a message says: You can't use this version of the application Safari with this version of Mac OS X 10.7.5. The application requires Mac OS X 10.9 or later.
    I see Recovery needs Wi Fi which is not available here and Recovery is loaded with a list of  potential disasters.
    To heck with Safari I'll just use Firefox. Apple sure screwed up here judging from the multitude of similar complaints on the internet.

  • I have an Airport Extreme Base Station and have recently upgraded to Mountain Lion. Now airport utility won't work with my base station so I bought a Time Capsule. For the life of me I can't make the substitution work and only see a blinking amber light.

    I have an Airport Extreme Base Station and have recently upgraded to Mountain Lion. Now airport utility won't work with my base station so I bought a Time Capsule. For the life of me I can't make the substitution work and only see a blinking amber light. Can anyone who has made this change offer some advice?

    The Utility transferred all of the AE's settings, so I still have to change the password, which leaves me with only 2 other questions, I think:
    1)  I assume it's just a matter of using the Utility, entering a stronger password and checking for it to be remembered in Keychain Access.  But do I have to  change the password for each individual unit-- the TC, the Extreme and both Expresses-- or will changing it just for the TC alone work for the entire network?
    Resetting the password you will need to do for each device... the utility cannot even see those old units.
    So you will have to do it for each one.. think it through.. because as you change passwords the others will lose connection.. so start from the express which are wireless extending .. change those first.. and go back up the chain.. as each one changes it will drop off the network.. until you reach extreme and change that. Then you might need to reboot the whole network to get everything talking again. If something goes wrong.. just pluck that one out of the mix and plug in ethernet.. reset and redo the setup. That is my preferred method anyway.. do everything in isolation one by one. By ethernet and then nothing goes wrong.
    2)  Who's the treasonous SOB who spilled the beans to you about the ICBM in my back yard?!?
    N.Korean hackers.
    [Edit] Whoops-- one more question:  I want to partition the TC's disk, but Disk Utility doesn't see it.  What do I need to do?
    You cannot partition a network disk. And apple provided no tools for it in the TC itself. You can pull the disk out and partition it but that voids your warranty. (although done with care who is to know).
    Look at Q3 here.

    Mixing TM and data on the TC is worth planning carefully. They don't necessarily sit happily together.

  • How do I delete zibzoom toolbar from my computer. It says its experimental and won't work with 5.0.

    I joined the Zibzoom.com company they were encouraging everyone to download the zibzoom toolbar so I did but it don't look like it all installed properly. So I want to remove it and nothing I've trie has worked. Finally I looked it up under firefox add ons and it shows that it is experimental and says it won't work with firefox 5.0 it will work with 1.0 trough 4.0 this company should not have been trying to get people to signup for this stupid thing. Now I can't get it off.

    You should be able to find it in the Extensions menu if it's been installed. Click the orange Firefox button, go to Add-ons, then Extensions. Remove it from there.
    See also: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_:_FAQs_:_Uninstall_Extensions
    But it does clearly state on the Add-ons site that it's not designed to work with Firefox 5.0.1 See screenshot.
    If this answers your question, please click the '''Solved it''' button next to this post after you log in into the forum. This will help others searching for a solution to the same subject.

  • Received warning re. McAfee ScriptScan 14.4.1 extension won't work with FF 10.0.2 update, and will be disabled. How should I proceed?

    MY system is Windows XP, SP3, laptop, running FF 9.0.1. When trying to update to FF 10.0.2 I got a msg that the McAfee ScriptScan 14.4.1 addon won't work with FF 10.0.2 and will be disabled. Shall I go ahead and install the FF update? Would it be a security risk either way? Which one is worse?

    I don't know what ScriptScanner does, but I think it's always a good idea to update Firefox to eliminate known vulnerabilities, particularly if it's your main browser. You can see what security problem were fixed in Firefox 10.0.2 (and earlier versions) on this page: https://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox.html
    According to the end of this long forum thread, there's a good chance it will still work (based on experience with the previous release): [https://community.mcafee.com/message/226187 McAfee Communities: McAfee ScriptScan for Firefox 14.4.0].
    However, it has been reported that the McAfee add-ons can cause Firefox to use much more memory. If you notice a performance slow-down, consider disabling them. More info: [http://blog.mozilla.com/nnethercote/2012/02/17/the-mcafee-site-advisor-add-on-has-an-appalling-memory-leak/ The McAfee Site Advisor add-on has an appalling memory leak | Nicholas Nethercote].
    Hope this helps.

  • Irish iPhone won't work with German simcard

    Irish iPhone won't work with German simcard! Can anyone help!? I bought it prepaid in Ireland with u2 but my German u2 card won't work in it?! Thanks for any advice!

    Yes, but they are different firms and O2 Ireland sell locked phones as far as I know so the german sim is not meant to work.
    From Apples site O2 Eire can unlock but not sure how well that would work if you are back in Germany now, as it usually needs to be active in the carriers country on their network.
