Stop 'mobile' versions of webpages

I have looked all through the settings for Firefox Android version, and can't find it: Is there some why to stop Firefox from loading 'mobile' versions of websites, when there isn't a "show full site" option on webpage.

Use the Phony extension and set the option to desktop Firefox.

How can I stop mobile versions on web browser?

Recently the web on my phone keeps trying to load mobile web versions of site instead of the full page. This happens on Wifi, 3G, and edge. Most of those web sites give the option to Exit mobile version, but when the page reloads it just goes back to mobile version. No matter what I do I can't get the mobile version to stop. Even in landscape view.
I can't find Any settings to make this stop. I even deleted history, cookies and cache, deleted the bookmark, went back to the page and hit exit mobile version over and over until if once in 40 times actually went to the non mobile version, then added the bookmark back when in non mobile mode, cleared cache, cookies and history again.
Mostly happens on Boy Genius Report, but happens on a few others as well.
Any idea how to get this to stop?

You can't.
This is up to the website developer.
You can leave feedback for the website if they have a link.

Can I stop mobile version from appearing?

Can you tell me if there is a way to "comment out" the code to not show the mobile version with the fluid layout? I would like to give the client the option to pay for the mobile version but not have it display automatically.

This begs the bigger question of why are you even using the Fluid Grid Layouts feature if you don't intend on including the mobile layout?
Project costs are typically negotiated up front before work has begun. I would never use a Fluid Grid Layout unless the client expects and is paying for a Responsive Web site.
Since Fluid Grid layouts are built on Mobile first, there's no practical way of disabling the mobile/tablet layout without breaking the whole thing. You would need to re-build your layout to fixed-width specs. In other words, more work with no pay off.

I keep being redirected to mobile versions of most sites even though I'm using my desktop...Help!

For some reason recently, my computer has decided that I'm always using a mobile device and I keep getting redirected to mobile versions of websites. I do use my phone to broadcast a wifi hotspot but I had been using it for months with no issue to the webpages until just a few weeks ago. Most times I can go to the bottom of the page and change it back to desktop but it never keeps it that way. I have run into the issue with my yahoo and aol mail where the mail page won't load at all so I can't change it to desktop nor can I see my mail. I can't figure out how to stop this from happening and it's becoming increasingly frustrating to not be able to view my mail on my computer. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache.
* Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
* Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
* Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

How do you stop mobile sites from loading in safari automatically on my iPad? I can't log into mobile me because of this.

How do you stop mobile sites from loading in safari automatically on my iPad? I can't log into mobile me because of this.

The me.com website is not designed for or intended to be accessed by iOS devices. Apple provides support in iOS or seperate Apps for accessing all aspects of MobileMe except for the Accounts section.
Use MobielMe as intended and you'll have no problems.
See: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1673
Even if you use a different browser to get access to me.com on iOS, you'll find most of it is unusable.
Other websites that present you with the mobile version have been programmed to do so by their developers. They specifically look for users accessing from 'mobile' devices and switch to the mobile site. Many such sites provide a link to go back to the 'full' site, if not, there's not a lot you can do except use a browser that can pretend not to be a mobile browser.

Mobile version sites

hello,
i'm just curious if there's a way to stop being directed to a mobile version of a site when browsing on the iphone? since the internet on the iphone is typically good enough to use the full desktop site i would like to avoid being automatically redirected to the mobile version and then having to spend time figuring out how to load the desktop version. is there a way or do i have to deal with it on a site by site basis? thank you.
rick

Welcome Menneisyys! I remember you (and your mobile expertise) from my days at Aximsite. Unfortunately, the iPhone has replaced my trusty X51v. The iPhone is not as versatile in some ways but it suits my life just fine. Beats carrying two devices around. Did you get the 3GS?

Why does my browser keep on opening things in mobile version and not desktop version?

hi everyone,
i just picked up my imac today and i'm trying to get used to it. here's one of many questions i have:
why do certain pages like facebook and hotmail sign in always open up in the mobile version and not desk top? how can i change the settings so that things will open only in the desk top version?
i went into develop and clicked on the latest safari but that didn't do anything.
it's annoying changing it every time i go into those sites.
any help would be much appreciated.
thanks,
mary

Read this whole message before doing anything.
Back up all data if you haven’t already done so. Before proceeding, you must be sure you can restore your system to the state it’s in now.
Quit Safari if it’s running. Then select  ▹ Force Quit... from the menu bar. A small window will open with a list of running applications. Safari may appear in that list, even though you quit it. If so, select it and press return. Close the window.
Step 1
In the Finder, press the key combination shift-command-A to open the Applications folder. Select the Safari icon in that folder and press the key combination command-I to open the Info window. There’s a checkbox in the Info window labeled Open in 32-bit mode. Uncheck it, if checked. Close the Info window and the Applications folder.
Hold down the option key and select Go ▹ Library from the Finder menu bar. Delete the following items from the Library folder (some may not exist):
Caches/com.apple.Safari
Caches/com.apple.WebKit.PluginProcess
Caches/Metadata/Safari
Preferences/com.apple.WebKit.PluginHost.plist
Preferences/com.apple.WebKit.PluginProcess.plist
Saved Application State/com.apple.Safari.savedState
Leave the Library folder open. Try Safari again. If it works now, stop here. Close the Library folder.
Step 2
If you still have problems, quit Safari again.
Launch the Terminal 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 Terminal in the page that opens.
Drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
rm -fr $TMPDIR../C/com.apple.Safari
Quit Terminal. Launch Safari and test.
Step 3
If Safari still doesn’t work right, quit, go back to the Finder and move the following items from the open Library folder to the Desktop (some may not exist):
Cookies/Cookies.binarycookies
Preferences/com.apple.Safari.LSSharedFileList.plist
Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
Preferences/com.apple.Safari.RSS.plist
Preferences/com.apple.WebFoundation.plist
PubSub/Database
Safari
(Note: you are not moving the Safari application. You’re moving a folder named “Safari.”)
Try again. This time Safari should perform normally, but your settings and bookmarks will be lost.
If the issue is still not resolved, quit Safari again and put all the items you moved to the Desktop back where they were, overwriting the newer ones that will have been created in their place. You don’t need to replace the files you deleted in step 1. Stop here and post again.
If Safari is now working normally (apart from the lost settings), look inside the “Safari” folder on the Desktop for a file named “Bookmarks.plist”. Select File ▹ Import Bookmarks from the Safari menu bar. Import from that file. Recreate the rest of your Safari settings. You can then delete the items you moved to the Desktop.
Note: This step will remove your Safari Extensions, if any, and their settings. If you choose to restore them, do so one at a time, testing after each step to make sure you haven’t restored the problem.
If you don’t like the results of step 3, you can undo it completely by quitting Safari and restoring the items you moved or deleted in that step from your backup, overwriting any that were created in their place.

As an update, I installed an update 5.7on my Mac laptop, now the Lightroom 5.0 has become a "Lightroom Mobile" version. How can change it back to the laptop version?

As an update, I installed an update 5.7on my Mac laptop, now the Lightroom 5.0 has become a "Lightroom Mobile" version. How can change it back to the laptop version 5.7?
Thanks for any help you can provide.

LR on your laptop is still a desktop version. It is just now able to upload to the cloud to replicate photos to either http://lightroom.adobe.com/ or an iPad that has LR Mobile installed.
I think you probably just want to change the LR 5 identity plate back so it doesn’t mention LR Mobile all the time. Hover over the identity-plate area, and click on the little triangle that appears, then choose Change Identity Plate.

MOBILE VERSION DOES NOT WORK!!!! Is Adobe not aware that encrypted forms fail using mobile reader??

I created a PDF Form in Acrobat Pro 9, and encrypted it with a password. No other restrictions were placed on the document.
When I open the document on an android device (tablet or phone) or an iPod, it does not allow me to fill in any of the fields or apply a signature of any kind.
However, when I open the same exact form with the desktop version (Reader XI), it does allow me to fill it out and sign it with no problem.
I have no problems filling it out and applying a signature with a mobile device when the document is not encrypted.
PLEASE HELP!
I have updated all my versions to the most latest.

Yes, apparently Adobe is aware of this.
For Adobe to omit such basic functionality to its mobile version is appalling.
I would have expected this from Microsoft, but not from Adobe.

Mobile version of community

Hi Everyone
I am pleased to announce that based on the feedback we got from community members we have decided to reinstate the mobile version of the community. So you can now access the forums on the move again!
It is important to remember that the mobile version does not provide all the forums’ features and functionality, but it is a scaled- down mobile-optimised version. This will allow you to access the community and perform key tasks on the move, such as reading, creating and replying to posts.
See below for our Frequently Asked Questions about the mobile version of the community.
Thx
Kerry
Frequently Asked Questions for accessing the community on a mobile device:
How do I access the community on my mobile device?
You should use the same URL you use to access the main community – www.bt.com/community
What devices can I use to access the community?
You can use any mobile device to access the community, but the user experience is optimised on devices which use a WebKit browser, including AppleWebKit for iPhone and Android, S60 Webkit for Nokia, and IE Mobile for HTC. To optimise the mobile experience on Blackberry and other devices, Opera Mini can be downloaded, which will enhance the way the community looks on your device. Further details on device compatibility and suggested browsers is included at the end of this FAQ message.
What tasks can I complete on the mobile version?
The mobile version is intended to keep you up to date with the community when you are on the move. This means that key functionality is available, but you cannot perform all functions that are available on the main site. Key tasks you can complete are as follows:
Sign in/out of community
View boards, threads, and messages
Create new thread
Reply to existing threads
Mark messages as read/unread
Give ratings
Send and receive private messages
Search the community
Follow other members (add to friends); See who is following you
Change certain mobile settings:
Turn on/off private messages
Subscribe to topics I post to
Create a mobile specific signature
View your profile
View existing bookmarks
Link back to main bt.com site and Help site
Why can’t I do everything on the mobile version as I would on the desktop version?
The mobile version is intended for ‘on the move’, easy access to key functionality of the community. Access on a mobile device needs to be quick to load and easy to read on small screens, so we have removed some of the extra features and functionality you normally see on the main site in order to achieve this. For example, the modules you see on the right hand side of the main site such as ‘top rated posts’ are not available on the mobile version as there is not enough space on the screen.
How does it work? If I post on the mobile version will it update on the main site?
Yes – the mobile version links directly into the main community site so any posts, replies, and PMs that you send will automatically be updated on the main site.
Do you plan to add any more functionality to the mobile version in future?
There are no immediate plans to add any further functionality than what exists in the current version. However, we are always looking to make improvements to any services we offer so if you have specific feedback on additional functionality you would like to see on the mobile version, please send me a PM.
What should I do if I have any problems using the mobile version?
If you have any problems using the mobile version we would recommend posting your query in the Forum Guidance and Ideas board when you’re with your PC so other members can give support and advice. The moderator team can also respond here if needed.
How secure is my data?
User details are stored securely and encrypted in the community system. The mobile version of the community is subject to the same tests as the rest of the community site and was implemented using the same security best practices. Members are reminded that they can control what profile information is viewable by others via their user settings.

Why isn't this working?

HT204081 I'm an author and my book recently received a five star review on iTunes and it shows up on my desktop but it doesn't show up on the Mobile version of my listing. How can I fix that?

The book is priced low enough to be an impulse buy but without the postive reviews being posted on the mobile versions, people may not be encouraged to buy it.

Try to connect in recovery mode, explained in this article:

SVG image does not appear in mobile version but does in desktop version

Hi,
I am new to using Muse and have created only one site before in Muse. I have taken screenshots to show the problem I am having.
I have used Illustrator to create the following logo image that I save out as an SVG file:
As you've probably guessed, I have used clipping mask to insert the marbly purple image into the shapes and text (this may be relevant to the problem, I don't know).
I then save it out as an SVG with the following details as advised by Adobe:
Then moving into Muse, I File > Place the SVG file. 'Unable to generate thumbnail' comes up in both desktop and phone versions:
Regardless, I uploaded to FTP post to my website. While the SVG appears perfectly on my desktop browser, it does not show at all on my phone browser:
This is not only happening on my phone, I have visited the same website on multiple phone devices and still the SVG image does not appear. Any ideas why this is happening?
Have I totally missed something about file formats for mobile browser versions in Muse?
Also- in illustrator, I saved the SVG logo for the mobile version as a SMALLER SVG than the one I saved for the desktop version.
Thanks

Use a PNG file. I see nothing in your logo that would warrant using anything else. You're not scaling it, there is no interaction and all you are doing is masking out some data that is pixels already. Pardon me, but using an SVG makes no sense at all. Beyond that one would need to see the file, but my guess would be that the "responsive" setting once again embeds some garbage data. Wouldn't be the first time...

HT1677 Where can you set default in Safari to view as web page instead of Mobile Version?

Where can you set the default setting in Safari to open page as web page instead of Mobile Version on iPad running iOS6.01?

And, to make it even more fun, sometimes a website changes how it deals with Safari Mobile. A website that treated it like a desktop browser suddenly starts treating it like a cell phone. Just to mess with you. Or push an app.
Best of luck.

Why can I only see the mobile version of certain websites instead of the full site?

some website are shown only in mobile version instead or full version, even when I click on the link that says "full site" I get redirected to the mobile version. This only happens in Firefox since I've tried other browsers too.

Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
*Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode

Try to boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

Blog pages to show on desktop and mobile versions

I have a domain hosting separate desktop and mobile versions. I need to have the blog posts show on both versions.
Posts such as http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1217947 state that I can define separate mobile and desktop templates for the Announcement module (although I can't see the option anywhere). Is there something similar to the blog module?

Hi,
You need to upload the mobile or tablet version of your template along with the desktop version as mentioned in this article and based on the device, the corresponding template will be served automatically :http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/partner/creating-mobile-tablet-friendly-templates .html
