Safari (XP) 4.0.5 not displaying some pages, seems to be a 'style' issue.

Since I have updating my work computer (Win XP) with Safari for Windows 4.0.5, some websites (ex. www.thestar.com) don't display properly, it's like the text is all gone... when I switch off 'styles' (disable styles) in the 'develop' menu all seems to be there 'cept it's really awkward reading this way.

Okay ... working up to sterner measures relating to Safari preference files.
The following technique will clear Bookmarks, Top Sites, passwords, etc. Make a note of your passwords and other forms data, and address book details if you're using them.
We're going to try rebuilding all your Safari preference files/folders. (This is a more drastic measure than just resetting.) If it does work, we can probably get your BookMarks and Top Sites back afterwards.
(1) Quit Safari if you have it open.
(2) Go Start > My Computer.
(3) From the Tools menu, select Folder Options ...
(4) Click the View tab.
(5) Make sure Show hidden files and folders is selected.
(6) Click OK.
(7) In My Computer, open Local Disk C:
(8) Open the Documents and Settings folder.
(9) Open the folder with the name of the XP user account in which Safari isn't displaying correctly.
(10) Open the Application Data folder.
(11) Open the Apple Computer folder.
(12) Rename the Safari folder "Safari1" and drag it out onto the desktop.
(13) Open the Preferences folder.
(14) Drag the com.apple.Safari plist file out onto the desktop.
(15) Go back into the folder with the name of the XP user account in which Safari isn't displaying correctly.
(16) Open the Local Settings folder.
(17) Open the Application Data folder.
(18) Rename the Safari folder "Safari2" and drag it out onto the desktop.
Now launch Safari again. (That will rebuild all the items we dragged out onto the Desktop.) After the Welcome to Safari thing has finished, head to thestar again. Does it display properly this time?

Why is Safari not displaying some pages correctly?

Safari seems to be messing up again. Had this problem quite a while ago. It's not displaying some pages correctly.
Notice the 2 enclosed screen shots. I went to purchase something (no personal info in the jpgs)
Notice the W-Safari. Little trash cans by the purchase items missing as well as the submit button and a few other things. So I opened Chrome.
Notice in the W-Chrome, everything is displaying correctly.
I've had problems like this some time ago but I thought they were fixed.
Thanks for any suggestions or help.

Safari and Chrome will not display some pages right for new user account

Not sure this is a Safari issue actually. Behavior is also in Chrome, but not Firefox. If I need to post elsewhere please advise.
24"imac running 10.5.8. 2gb ram, software update run,
Setup a new user account. Machine will have 2 users.
When I login as the new user, in both Safari and Chrome, some pages - google, ebay, amazon, cnn, yahoo, do not display correctly. Mainly empty space, a few graphics all wrong. They do display correctly in Firefox.
I assumed it was the user. So I added a 3rd user. Same behavior. Tried giving the new user admin rights. Same problem.
For the admin account, everything's fine on those pages, both in Safari and Chrome.
It feels like the new user is not getting access to something it needs, but it also feels like more than a font problem. Thanks for any suggestions. Dan

Thanks for your thoughts. Here's what I've learned. The browsers display correctly for the new user after SafeBoot. I removed all startup items, to no avail. Removed all fonts from the new user account, nothing. Removed all fonts from the admin user's library, nothing. Then I removed all fonts from the HD library, and that fixed it for the new user. Now I just have to figure out which one it was.
So in summary, a bad font in the HD library was affecting Safari and Chrome (but not Firefox) in new user accounts, but not in the admin user's account. Nice. D

Safari 3 still not displaying some pages correctly

Since I'm a .mac subscriber I would love to switch back to Safari from Camino so I can keep my bookmarks all in sync. Safari version 3 seems to be much faster and perhaps a bit lighter than 2.0 so I'm fully ready to make the switch.
However, I do have a web report that I have to access daily that Safari isn't displaying properly and I'm wondering if someone could tell me why. Basically this report is html I believe and about 15 columns wide. When I open the report in Camino, Firefox, and all Windows browsers it displays fine, but not in Safari. In Safari it only shows the first 4 columns. I think the issue might be the fact that the report is extremely wide and the other browsers adjust to this automatically and accept the fact that there is a good deal of left to right scrolling. Safari seems to only show the fields that it can display without increasing the width of the webpage.
Any ideas?

Safari not displaying some pages

I trying to go to the FEC website to look at some donation forms as part of my job. For some of the pages, it's blank -- what I mean is, the page will open, but the actual form won't -- there is message link that says 'missing plug-in.' When I click on it a litte window appears that says
'To view this content, you need Adobe Reder. Click '' More Info '' to visit the company's webstie.'
I've done that, and downloaded the latest version, but I get the same result.
Can anyone tell me what's going on? I don't know if it has to do with the time of the donation, although some of pages to come up -- I think they're older forms.

A follow up to this, folks -- the pages open up on my PC in firefox, but they won't open up in Firefox either on the MAC. It's really strange -- I used to be able to open up the forms. Could it be that the latest update to Snow Leopard could have caused something to happen?

Screen briefly flashes white but does not display the page when the Safari icon or other icons are tapped.

A problem has just started with my IPAD Air after 3 months of use.
If I try to open Safari by tapping on the icon the screen briefly flashes white but does not display the page.
Similarly if I try to open Settings page, Mail page, Calendar or Clock the screen just briefly flashes but the Apps do not run.
Some of the Apps do work on tapping the icon e.g. Maps, iBooks, Appstore, iTunes, Newstand etc.
I do have some website links which display when the icon is tapped e.g. John Lewis but some links do not work.
I have ensured that the ipad is fully charged, powered it off an on again, and cleaned the screen with a lint free cloth but the
same problem keeps occurring.

I saume you used a second display at one time, otherwise the Display settings wouldn't be treating your primary display as a secondary.
IF you open your System Preferences>Displays (-System Preferences) and click "Gather Windows" it should pull everything to the display on which you clicked it.

I installed safari 8.0.1 and now my computer is slow and will not open some pages can i uninstall

I installed safari 8.0.1 and now my mac is really really slow and will not open some pages. Can I uninstall?

Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them. In that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If not, do that now and see whether there's any change.
If your browser is Safari, then from the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. Any change?
If you're running OS X 10.9 or later, select the Advanced tab in the Preferences window and uncheck the box marked
Stop plug-ins to save power
Any change?
Quit and relaunch the browser. Any change?
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Enable Private Browsing in the Safari menu. Any change?
Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
If Parental Controls is active for any user, please turn it off and test. Any change?
If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
Open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Photos, if it's checked. Any change?
Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?

Preview.app will not display some PDF files

Since upgrading Yosemite I have found that Preview.app will not display some PDF documents, the documents open but all the pages are blank. This is a big issue as my work involves reviewing documents that are all in the PDF format. Strangely some PDFs work properly but I haven't been able to determine any common factors among the documents that work versus those that don't work. The problem documents do open correctly in Adobe Acrobat Reader but Reader takes over viewing of PDF container fields I have in several important FileMaker Pro 13 databases. Acrobat in the FileMaker databases for me is just as much of a problem as not viewing PDFs in Preview.
After searching the forums I followed suggestion in a post to try using version 7.0 of Preview.app (the version that worked under Mavericks) but that is also showing blank pages. I have noticed that the PDFs which open as blank pages also display that way in Finder and Spotlight previews. Could this mean that I have some kind of OS level issue here and not a Preview.app issue? Perhaps Finder and Spotlight use Preview.app to generate the preview.
I have posted this in a bug report to Apple but in the meantime I would welcome any suggestions or workarounds to try.

The built-in PDF renderer has trouble with that file. You might get better results with Adobe Reader.

Safari 6.1 will not launch some pages

Safari 6.1 will not launch some pages. Stops searching as though it has loaded page, but screen is white. I have not downloaded any software recently, only s/w updates from Apple.

My Lion installation of Safari 6.1 just beachballs. Restarted, repaired permissions, logged in as admin user, same result.
I would avoid this update for now.

Safari on my account does not display images when you open a picture.

I have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 installed. Safari on my account does not display images most of the time when you open a picture like (www.example.com/example/example.jpg or any other format). If the image does not display, I can drag from the corner, it displays the image. However, pdf does not work at all. I have to choose open in Preview to view the pdf file. I can even show the example:
Sometimes the images work like right now.
2. This is the time when the images do not work.

Hi all the real problem was this...
The issue was that the wee rubber eye piece around the viewfinder had slipped out of its seat slightly and was covering the sensor for the LCD. I Just checked the rubber eye piece bit pushed right down till it clipped into place and now not obstructing the LCD sensor as the picture displays both with the LCD auto off enabled or disabled !! simple thing but a massive trap !

Edge running slow/not displaying some items on stage

My project's growing quite large but I'm keeping everything very tidy and importing only small files (tiny PNGs, well compressed short videos, etc) but I've found the file slowing down and now it's not displaying some of my images and symbols.
Also when I now preview in Browser it takes forever to load a page - BUT - if I drag the .html file on my browser it opens and works fine.
Why would it be doing this? Can allocate Edge Animate more memory? I have an 8-core mac with 28GB RAM and plenty of HD space (which should be fine for this)
Thanks
J

Can you attach a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screenshot screenshot]?
Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed the maximum file size (1 MB).
* If you use extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extension) like Adblock Plus or NoScript or Flash Block that can block content then make sure that such extensions aren't blocking content.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I can not see some pages

Hi!
I very rarely happens, I have an iMac 27 "and I can not see some pages.
On the contrary I can see all the pages on my MacBook Pro.
Both computers are in the same table with the same wifi.
In Safari "I think" have the same configuration but it has to be no.
How I can see the pages on my iMac if I look at the MacBook Pro?
Thank you!
PS: sorry my english

     Restart the computer.
