Sticky notes in safari disabled?

Hi Everyone,
I'm a new mac user, but am loving it so far. I'm wondering if I have to enable the sticky note function in safari? It's greyed out, and I tried it in Firefox and Word as well with the same results. Any advise would be appreciated...Thanks!

Hi,
In general for the Services menu options to work (this is what I guess you're referring to) you need to select some text/graphics before the option is selectable (this is the case with Safari).
The applications in question need to provide some support for the services menu and for Word/Firefox it appears they don't unfortunately.

  • Is there an issue with Safari in Iphones and Ipads where it does not recognize option disabled="disabled" tag properly?

    Greetings everybody,
    I have run into a peculiar problem with the Safari browser on mobile platforms (IPad, IPod, IPhone) which I hope I can find a solution for in this community.
    I just launched a new website where I sell products with certain variations, for example please view this link: http://www.finerribbon.com/aegean-single-face-satin-ribbon.html
    On this particular product, the product variants are supposed to work in such a way where:
    If you select the value "1/8" from the "Choose Ribbon Width" field
    THEN
    The only options active and available to choose from in the "Choose Roll Size" field should be: 500 Yds, 20 Yds & Sample Swatch
    Now, if we browse to the above link in Safari using a desktop or a laptop, there are no problems at all, but if we browse to the above link using an IPhone or an Ipad, then we have a problem where all the options are available regardless of the values chosen, basically the above functonality does not work.
    I was told that there an issue with Safari in Iphones and Ipads where it does not recognize option disabled="disabled" tag properly, is this true? Can anyone advise me if there is a solution to this problem? I would sincerely apperciate it.
    Thank you very much for your time and help!

  • I have an iMac 20 inch early 2009 software osx 10.8.1(12b19)...i am not able to use my internet, outlook, or any messenger. tried troubleshooting, reseting safari, disabling firewall, deleted intego...still no internet

    I have an iMac 20 inch early 2009 software osx 10.8.1(12b19)...i am not able to use my internet, outlook, or any messenger. tried troubleshooting, reseting safari, disabling norton firewall, deleted intego...still no internet. i did delete intego without uninstalling so im wondering if that caused the problem. everytime i try to open safari it displays this: Safari can't open the page: "http://www.yahoo.com/". the error is: "the operation couldn't be completed. Operation not permitted" (NSPOSIXErrorDomain:1)

    Like nearly all antivirus utilities for OS X, Norton a/k/a Symantec and Intego are worthless junk that will cripple your Mac. Remants of one or both are most likely preventing Safari from communicating.
    Search the forums for techniques to eradicate them - simply disabling them or dragging their apps to the Trash is not likely to be sufficient. Start by reading this procedure from Symantec:
    http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH103489
    For Intego: http://support2.intego.com/kb/index.php?x=&mod_id=2&id=214

    I believe you are correct. Download and run its uninstaller.

    Go to "Start", Search programs and files, type gadgets and Add gadgets to desktop.  You should find Sticky Notes.  If not, I am not certain that you will be able to reinstall it.

  • Sticky notes in Acrobat Reader x

    Unable to activate stcky notes to be able to use in Acrobat Reader X...
    What needs to be done to make this happen?

    For Reader X, sticky notes and highlighter type of annotations are by default available and can be added on any pdf unless that pdf is secured (or has some special permissions due to which commenting has been disabled.). If you wish to enable all the types of annotations then you need to do the following. Open the pdf in Acrobat (any version). Click Save As->Reader Extended Pdf->Enable Commenting and Measuring.
    Hope that helps.
    Thanks,

  • I can't use the sticky note function-Help!

    I have version 9 and I am not able to makes sticky notes in reviewing the work that is sent to me. I had version 5 where all worked well and recently got a new hard drive and installed Adobe Reader 9. I read that the document has to have permission to make comments and when I go to preferences it says that this document does not have permission....but when I call the person who sent it(graphic artist who works in Quark) -she said that nothing has changed and that it does have permission. Help! What do I do to be able to use the sticky note function again.
    Thanks,
    Glen

    I have noticed a similar problem at my friends computer. The small company he works for has a regular Apple Quad tower running Version Cue 3 w/ Leopard. The system has Adobe Acrobat 9 Professional installed. When he logs in and creates a PDF review, he is able to see the review window open up in Safari with the commenting features. Granted, since he has Adobe 9 Pro, he doesn't need to "Enable the Commenting" feature.
    So we tested on his lap top that just had the Adobe Reader 9 (AR9) recently installed on a fresh copy of Tiger 10.4.11. He got his invite email and went to the server and was able to do all the functions except for one: when he went to check out the review and clicked to open the PDF, it came up with an JavaScript error indicating that the: This Document is Available for Review in Acrobat Reader. You must use Adobe Acrobat .. blah blah
    So I did the next obvious step and went to AR9 and and "Enabled the Commenting". Saved it as a different document name and re imported it into the Version Cue through Bridge. I went back in and tried to initiate a new review with the updated file. SAME ERROR POPPED UP. Now, I was able to directly open the PDF document that I exported from AR9 on my friend's lap top (solo Reader) and the document loaded successfully.
    The users all have the proper permissions. It works on a system with Acrobat but not with just the Reader installed. Any ideas out there?

  • I have a 3 GS and it does not have safari installeds on it. How do I install it and where do I find it to install.

    I have a 3 GS that does not have Safari on it. I don't know where it went or how it went but its gone. How do I get it back.

    It is not possible to delete it. Check Settings>General>Restrictions and make sure it hasn't been disabled. If it is not disabled and you still can't locate it, Settings>General>Resets>Reset Home Screen Layout, will revert it to its default location.
    If it is still not there, try deleting any corporate Exchange account you may have set up on your phone. It is possible for Exchange administrators to enforce policies preventing internet use on connected devices, which will cause the Safari icon to disappear.

  • Make a new Sticky note from an application

    All applications have a means of making a new sticky note from the application menu/Services/make a new sticky note, but it does not work on my G5 imac. The application menu blinks but a note is nowhere to be found. I have searched the forums and have tried trashing the stickies preferences but nothing was found or has worked. I am able to create a note from the Stickies application however.
    iMac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    All I did was launch Stickies.app, close the default junk while not saving, make a new note from the Edit menu, and quit the application.
    I next tried it from Finder and it made a small desktop picture. I quit the app then. (That retains the sticky itself)
    Next I launched Safari, highlighting a 3 line sentence out of its first hit, then to Finder ->> Services ->> Make New Sticky Note. Stickies launches with highlighted text in place. I quit to retain sticky.
    Because Stickies.app retains (keeps its own data) OR saves (Externally as a file) oddly, I seldom use it. A such a simple .app but awkard to use.

  • Printing out sticky notes

    Hi everyone,
    I've put sticky notes on most of the pages of a large pdf file, but when I print the file the notes don't print out.
    Can anyone tell me why this is happening or if there's a workaround?
    Appreciate any help.

    Edit > Preferences > Commenting > Print notes and pop-ups.
    It's disabled by default as most people don't want stickies on their printouts. You also need to choose "document and markups" in the print properties dialog box.

  • Tools pane not displaying highlights, sticky notes

    My system is window 7 and I'm using the latest version of adobe reader xi, which I just downloaded after uninstalling a previous copy in an effort to figure out why it's not working.  After searching on the forums I disabled protected mode and now the reader no longer stops working after about 1 minute, so that problem was fixed.
    However, the reader no longer displays the highlights and sticky notes in the tools pane that I had already created on my documents.  The tools pane just shows a circle in the middle and nothing else.  Any ideas?

    No. it requires a connection for the email and online features. the first time it opens it usually take a little longer.
    You can STILL access the highlighter and sticky notes from your toolbar. Here's how to add them (it's Mac, but the menu is the same for Windows)
    You MUST have a PDF open to access this menu. Click "Show All Comment Tools" and they will appear in the toolbar at the top. You can access them from there WITHOUT the tools panel open.

  • Sticky Note (Text annotation)

    Hello,
    I decided to add some sticky notes (text annotation) in my pdf document and I was surprised to see that the sticky notes were not printed. I used the "Document and Markups" option for the print and even in the print preview the Sticky Notes were not present.
    Regarding the PDF Reference a sticky note is a Markup so it has to be printed.
    Is it a bug? A normal behavior?
    While I select the "Print notes and pop-ups" option in the Preferences - Commenting then the Sticky is printed (but also all notes and pop-ups

    The Preferences > Commenting > Print notes and popups option takes priority when printing sticky notes - if it's deselected, they don't print at all. If it's selected, sticky notes will print in whatever state they're in (collapsed or open) provided they don't have a non-print attribute set against them.
    Most people don't want stickies to print, as by their nature they are either collapsed (hence meaningless on paper) or will obscure some other part of the page. Text markups, stamps etc. can be printed without such issues, hence the above preference defaults to off.

  • After updating to v. 24.0 (and restarting) ALL add-ons (regardless whether they work or not) are marked "(disabled)", and clicking Enable button does nothing

    After updating to v. 24.0 (and restarting, several times) ALL add-ons (regardless whether they work or not) are marked "(disabled)". I tried clicking "Enable" button for each add-on and nothing happened. There is only one add-on which is marked as incompatible with this version (but it was also incompatible with previous version, and so marked).
    Clicking "Update Add-ons", gives a short list of add-ons but "Install Updates" button is pale and doesn't work. I can only sort list by name or last update.
    Also, I disabled Ask Toolbar and that went well. When I click "Enable" button (button works ONLY for this add-on) it takes forever to get note: “Ask Toolbar will be enabled after you restart Firefox”, I used to get this info in seconds time before this update. (I do not really want Ask Toolbar, I just used it to see whether if I disable and then enable an add-on might do the trick.)
    Bottom line – I can not tell if add-on works (i.e. if it is enabled or disabled) unless I try using it.
    Even when I posted this question and installed Troubleshooter, it's also marked as "(disabled)"

    You're welcome

  • How do I keep the sticky notes from shifting their placement as soon as I select File, Print?

    Working with Acrobat Pro 9 and Windows 2007, I frequently use sticky notes to approve multi-page invoices scanned by another location.  On the screen they appear where I put them - but as soon as I click File, Print with the printer "Adobe PDF" and "documents and markups" selected, the ntoes all shift to a static location on each page that overlays the invoice detail.  I've tried multiple settings and defaults to no
    avail.  Any help is much appreciated.

    Either don't rename upon export, or use the (original filename or) image number in the renaming template:
    (see 'File Naming' section of export dialog box)

  • JQuery Cycle 2 Image Slideshow (Works (cycles) in Explorer, but not in Safari or Chrome??

    Resize/re-scale & optimize all images for the web in your graphics editor before you insert them into your web pages.  Saves bandwidth and reduces page load.
    Cycle2 is a responsive slideshow.  If you want all images to remain 400px and not responsive to layout,  you'll need to modify the CSS code a little.
