Should I bother testing my sites on Google Chrome (as well as IE, FF, Safari)?

Or is it still too early?

It won't hurt. The question you have to answer is should you
try to
correct for any problems you see there. (FWIW, I haven't seen
any
problems there that I didn't see in other browsers.)

Text displays on sites like Google Spreadsheets, as well as all PDF documents is transparent, even in Safe mode.

Recently I have noticed a very strange phenomenon in Firefox. I first noticed it in Google Spreadsheets; text does not display in the cells, but does if I bring a specific cell up for editing. I thought this limited to the new Google Spreadsheets, since the old Google Spreadsheets still function normally. It's just the new ones exhibiting this behavior.
However, I quickly noticed that PDF files opened in Firefox exhibit the same behavior. The text is not white; it is totally transparent, like it's not being rendered at all.
HOWEVER, if Firefox is not in focus, AND some text is selected, the text renders in the selection. Shown: http://imgur.com/bWWLvLr
Windows cleartype does not seem to affect this, nor does it seem to be any of my addons; even in safe mode the problem persists.
This problem is not present in Windows Internet Explorer, so it doesn't seem to be my system.
I'd appreciate fixing this problem, as I make frequent use of Google docs.

No, I have not. Firefox text & font options are default. Driver-wise, yes, this is up to date. I should note that in the case of Google Spreadsheets, the text appears briefly before disappearing.
This would have led me to believe it was one of my addons, but the safe mode test dismissed that idea.

HT5244 what flash player should I use for eBay when using google chrome ?

I just purchased a new Mac 2013 model because I know they are excellent systems and due to viruses that ruined 2 windows laptops with virus protection in 3 months (FBI Virus). Being I am a new Mac user and still learning I need iMac for dummies lol, I am okay with iOS but having trouble with Mac (nothing like any of my iPhone's) I run a business on eBay & I am at the point of getting my own site up but that is another topic. Being I use eBay a lot with Google Chrome, reason is I can not edit my pictures as much in detail when I use Safari (I prefer Safari over chrome) . I also purchased from Mac App Store Auction Listing Designer for eBay but unfortunately $29.99) having trouble with that also and have not been able to use it once. I downloaded Adobe Flash Player about 5 weeks ago but do not see what version it is, before I downloaded Adobe, I called Apple Care which I have to say are GREAT and worth every penny of Apple Care + 3 years. I will get to the point, what is recomended as far as flash player when using sites like eBay ?
Thank you

The most current version of Adobe Flash Player.

Need to disable 'prntScrn' on a windows keyboard for a particular site. But function should be allowed on generic sites like google.How?

I want to disable the print screen function on a particular url opened on a firefox browser. But, print screen should work on generic websites like google.com. Does mozilla allow me to customize the keyboard function 'PrntScrn' based on the url?

Hello,
From my understanding print screen is a Windows function, and Firefox won't be able to control it. In addition, there are other ways to take screenshots, such as the Snipping Tool.

Two days ago two of the forum I use stopped working as they did. Google Chrome can open these sites without problem. I have checked that Javascript is working. What can I do to get the sites back to the way they were?

Two days ago two forums I regularly use stopped working properly. One of them is www.mobileread.com, and the main problem is with marking the forums read. The staff there suggested that I check that Javascript is enabled. It is, but the problem remains.
The other site just looks as though there is no styling on the index page; it just shows a list of links.
I can use both sites with Google Chrome just as I did before, so it has to be a problem with Firefox.
There are many other sites I visit, and I have not had the same problem there.

For the one with a styling problem, see what you have for View > Page Style
the normal style is default and "No Style" would wipe out styling but in this area it would apply to all pages.
I don't know of an extension that would selectively turn page styling or off, but look at your extensions.
Both problems could be caused by filters added to "Adblock Plus" extension.
Bring up "Open blockable items [Ctrl+Shift+V]" in ADP by right-clicking on the toolbar/addons bar icon or in the add-on's options. See what is being blocked and the filter that is blocking it. You can easily test filters there and turn them on/off and retest. You can see the filter that is blocking an item, you can use the mouse to see where that filter came from. Choices of what columns to display can be made with the little icon to the right of the column headings in the list.
Attached is a picture of blockable items I see for the www.mobileread.com page. To view a page that you need to view or use, you can try modifying your filters or toggling the "State" column (preferred). You can disable Adblock Plus from the extensions options but that defeats the protection it offers.
If seems that the problem would be an extension, or a style, or theme.

Why won't Google Chrome show template page updates to a site I created?

I made template updates to a client site, but Google Chrome will not show the simple update. All other browsers show the update. I've tried clearing cache and reloading page, but still no luck. The website is at:
http://www.donnellycommunications.com
The update that should be showing is in the upper right of page where the "procoresolutions.Com" link is...the "C" should be lowercased.
Can anyone help me figure this out?
Thanks.

The connection to login.microsoftonline.com was interrupted.
Check your Internet connection.
Check any cables and reboot any routers, modems, or other network devices you may be using.
Allow Chrome to access the network in your firewall or antivirus settings.
If it is already listed as a program allowed to access the network, try removing it from the list and adding it again.
If you use a proxy server...
Check your proxy settings or contact your network administrator to make sure the proxy server is working. If you don't believe you should be using a proxy server: Go to the Chrome menu > Settings > Show
advanced settings... > Change proxy settings...> LAN Settings and deselect "Use a proxy server for your LAN".
Error code: ERR_CONNECTION_RESET
and my internet explorer doesnt open the sites either, can anyone assist me with this problem please?

Hi hein56,
According to your description, the error is encountered when you try to login your SharePoint Online site.
To troubleshoot this issue, please follow these steps for identifying the error code:
View the source code of the login.microsoftonline.com webpage that shows the error message. For example, in Internet Explorer, press the ALT key to display the menu bar (if it isn't already displayed),
and then clickSource on the View menu.
Search the source code for the HR= string, and then note the numeric code that follows the HR= string.
Then you can find more information about how to troubleshoot the issue according to the error code.

Should I use google chrome on my macbook pro?

Firstly what exactly is google chrome and is it better than safari?
If so is it just as safe and fast as safari?

With the possible exception of IE (which you don't have to worry about), any browser is as safe as the person using it. Since you're the same person, the browsers are going to be pretty equal from a security standpoint.
As for performance, the are both based on the same WebKit core, so the differences are likely to be in memory utilization and JavaScript execution.
Tom's Hardware recently ran an extensive browser comparison where Safari was crowned the Mac winner, but personal preference plays a part, too. Personally I use Safari for 99% of what I do.

Trackpad not working properly with google Chrome

Today, my trackpad has ceased to scroll up and down pages in Google Chrome. It works fine in safari and with applications, but today for no apparent reason it has stopped being able to scroll the Google Chrome browser. Wierd!

There is a history of problems with Google Chrome, Lion and to some degree, trackpads. You should ask your self how much you need Google Chrome which at best absorbs memory at a rate of knots. Look at 'More like this" to your right >>>
Many people take Chrome for the extentions available but again, from my experience, they are not always tested with Macs and conflict readily with each other.
Do some digging via Google and our forum search pages and you may be inclined to stick to Safari.

Text has moved in Google Chrome, but fine in Safari and Firefox?

Hi,
A client pointed out to me the other day that when they went onto my site using Google Chrome the Intro text
had moved down but when viewed using Safari or Firefox it was fine.
Does anybody happen to know why it has done this?
www.segmentdesign.co.uk
Many thanks
Darren

Hi Abhishek,
Thanks for your help, that is odd that it's fine on your machine!!
I've just upgraded my machine to OS X Yosemite and have the latest Chrome, but still shows the same problem.
Would there be something in settings, I don't have another machine to test it on.
Any ideas?
Many thanks
Darren

Why won't my photo galleries show in google chrome?

I have built a webpage with the Album template, which looks great in Safari, but when I try to view it in Google Chrome, the photos do not display. All I see is "Play Slideshow" which does nothing when I click on it.
Any thoughts?

Bonjour
This is what I post today in another topic :
Don't test your website with Google Chrome if you publish it into a local folder.
Publish to a server. You need an URL with http:// and ( not file://) to view an iWeb site in Chrome.
You can also
activate the web sharing on your computer (Preferences system > Sharing > Check web sharing)
publish to Sites folder (MacIntosh HD > Users > Home folder >Sites)
and use the URL (with http) given by the web sharing tab in preferences system http://computer_name.home/~user_name/site_name/

Docs from Google Chrome (Adobe Acrobat DC) Stuck in Print Queue

Using HP Print & Scan Dr I have cleared up my queue so I can print from my MS Office docs. However, when trying to print a doc from my banking site using Google Chrome as the browser, the print options come up in Adobe but only go to the queue without printing. I uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe to see if that would free up the queue...no luck. HP's Dr allows me to print from other docs including email from MS Outlook. Suggestions? I did go to 2 other websites and was able to print from both in Adobe. I wonder if it's something with my bank's site?

Hey , Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that you're experiencing issues when printing from an online banking site using Google Chrome on your computer. I would like to assist you today with resolving this printing issue. However, in order for me to provide you with accurate support today I do need to clarify a few things. (1) What Operating System are you using on your computer? (2) What HP printer do you have? (3) Are you able to print from the online banking website using a different internet browser (Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox)? Once I have the answers to my questions above, I will be more then happy the guide you to a solution. I look forward to hearing from you!

UFT google chrome extension is 12* but installed UFT version is 11.53

Hi,
I am using UFT 11.53 to test a website on Google chrome 32.0.1700.107 m
The automatic updates on GC were disabled via a tricky procedure (windows registers)
For an unkown reason the GC UFT extension got updated from 11.53.559.0 to 12.0.1008.0 ! the GC objects are no longer recognized !
Would you know how it got updated and if there is a way to revert the GC UFT extension back to 11.53.559.0 that matches the installed UFT version "11.53" ?
Thanks,

Might be late but if you go to Chrome Settings, scroll down until you see Users, click Delete this user.
That should fix your issue.
