Some websites, like Amazon and Shutterstock became garbled after I updated Java.

Some websites, like Amazon and Shutterstock show up completely garbled. I suspect problems with Javascript, and I'm pretty sure the issue started after I updated Java. I did all the troubleshooting tips listed on this site, and none helped. I booted Firefox without extensions and the problem prevailed. I don't know what else to do.
Mac OS 10.6.8, Java up to date, Firefox 12.0

hello, can you try to clear cache, cookies & history for the affected sites as it is described here: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Websites%20say%20cookies%20are%20blocked#w_clear-history-for-that-site]
in case this doesn't resolve the issue, also go through the other troubleshooting steps of [[Websites look wrong]]. thank you.

  • COMBO BOXES AND SOME PAGES ARE NOT SHOWN CORRECTLY IN SOME WEBSITES LIKE SBICAPSEC AND MAXNEWYORK LIFE. BUT NO PROBLEM USING WITH IEXPLORER

    I am not able to login to maxnewyork life insurance site while using firefox. I am using firefox 3.6.10 now. Combo boxes are not shown in the some trading websites. I uses noscript2.0.3.3, javaconsol6.0.21, javascript option 1.2.6 and WOT20100908. It creates feeling of inferiority in using Firefox due to these problems.

  • Firefox is displaying unreadable characters when visiting some websites like digg. The sites work fine in all other browsers. I've tried all encoding options in firefox.

    Firefox is displaying unreadable characters when visiting some websites like digg. The sites work fine in all other browsers. I've tried all encoding options in firefox.

    This issue can be caused by an old bitmap version of the Helvetica or Geneva font or (bitmap) fonts that Firefox can't display in that size.
    Firefox can't display some old bitmap fonts in a larger size and displays gibberish instead.
    You can test that by zooming out (View > Zoom > Zoom Out, Ctrl -) to make the text smaller.
    Uninstall (remove) all variants of that not working font to make Firefox use another font or see if you can find a True type version that doesn't show the problem.

  • Websites like yahoo and google taking incredibly long to load

    Websites like yahoo and google taking incredibly long to load.

    Hi r_saha,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! I understand that when using Safari some specific websites are slow to load. There could be a couple of different steps I would suggest to help you get this resolved. I suggest trig a different DNS service first; the steps can be found in the following article.
    Safari 5.0.1 or later: Slow or partial webpage loading, or webpage cannot be found
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3408
    Resolution
    Your DNS server(s) or your router may be affected by DNS prefetching in Safari 5.0.1 or later.
    First, try a different DNS service
    Try a different DNS service, such as one of the DNS services below. This will test to see if the root cause of your issue lies with your selected DNS servers.
    OpenDNS (http://www.opendns.com/)
    Google DNS (http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/)
    Or, search the Internet for "Third-party DNS services" for more options and information
    For information about how to change DNS settings in Mac OS X, see Editing DNS and search domain settings.
    If the issue persists in Safari, return to your original DNS server settings if desired, then continue with the next section.
    I hope this helps,   
    -Joe

    Every time I restart my mac air some applications like calendar and Microsoft word automatically starts, how can I stop such applications from starting when ever I restart my mac?

    One thing to check:  when shutting down or restarting, there is a checkbox in the shutdown/restart dialog which asks whether you want currently open applications to open at startup.

    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.
    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.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).

  • Trying to recover my data My Micro SD Card became corrupted after JB Update

    Can someone please help me?
    Here is the issue:
    Background:
    I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 phone that I transferred my micro SD Card into from my previous smart phone.  About a month ago I realized that some of the pictures were corrupted and called verizon they told me to put the sd card in the old phone and see if I could delete the corrupted pictures.  Did that,  the card went back to working as I was used to it working.  I then had a friend download some music to it.  That also worked fine until verizon sent out the Jelly bean update.  When the phone turned off and then back on after the update, the phone gave me an error message that said the SD card is damaged.  I immediately took it out of the phone and put it aside.  
    Current issue:
    So today I purchased a card reader, New micro SD card and came home and downloaded Recuva.  So far everything is great.  All the files, I card about came up in the directory with little green circles next to them.  (All the music and my 5 sms back-ups)  I then hit the recover icon at the bottom of the screen and the data gathered.  Then it never recovered over to my c drive or to the flash drive (memory stick) that that I put into one of the other ports.  I keep getting 1 or 2 messages.  The one I am seeing the most is " The parameter is incorrect"  the other one I am seeing is that the memory is not ready for the data.  I am now at the point where all I care about are the 5 sms back ups.  The music can be reloaded later.  files are called sms-"date backed up and a string of numbers".xml
    So question is do I need to buy recuva to actually recover my data or am I doing something else wrong?  Please help.
    Thanks so much in advance.       
    So an update as of 8:45 pm
    So here's what else I have tried so far tonight.  I went back into the CMD mode of my computer and ran chkdsk d:/f   this now produced a name of a file that is corrupted.  Also says that it removed the file.  I then ran chkdsk again with the exact same result.  The file was not removed. 
    Running recuva I am getting more files recovered now and more green circles.  But, when actually trying to recover the files I am still getting the message  "The parameter is incorrect"
    Most of the other software i have found is either for recovering pictures or deleted files not corrupted ones.  This is the only software that appears to do what i need it to do for my issue.  I think I may be in over my head and it may be time to pay a professional to move on from here.  Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. 
    Thanks again for taking your time to reply to me.

    There are some free alternatives to recovering files from a SDcard.  photorec.exe is one.  Try a Google search to find others.

  • There was add one and i lost it after the update and i don't remember it's name

    there was add one and i lost it after the update and i don't remember it's name
    it was add-on to show me the source of any click able content
    like pics on twitter or Facebook
    also the videos on youtube
    and it showed a little icons with small pic shape on it with different colors
    and also sometimes with a small lock shape on it
    now i need to know what this add -on name or how to get it back

    Add-ons are not auto-deleted as far as I know...
    It's possible that the extension or userscript simply doesn't work correctly in Firefox 22 due to a change in Firefox. If you look at the add-on pages, often the reviews will mention whether the add-on is broken in a new release.

    That is Java. Those are also really old versions. You can actually keep them turned on in Java Preferences.
    What you want to change is in Safari > Preferences > Security and turn off Java there. Leave Javascript turned on.
    This way, the only thing you disable is Java applets, which are useless anyway. If you need to run any Java programs, they will still work. If you have any specific site that requires a Java applet, you can always turn it on just for that site and turn it back off when you are done.
