TIFF images are shown as blank when embedded in some web pages

After I upgraded to Snow Leopard, I see blank the TIFF images displayed in some web sites, like for example any patent image in the www.uspto.gov web site.
This happens on both Safari and Firefox. They both use the QuickTime plugin (I have version 7.6.3).
However, if I drag and drop the TIFF image and save it in the local hard drive, local applications like Preview display the page correctly.
It seems to be an issue with QuickTime and possibly the MacBook model (I have a first generation MacBook Air, with the GMA X3100 Intel graphic card).
Has anybody experienced this bug?

Any patent image in the www.upsto.gov web site. For example, this link goes to the first page of the U.S. Patent 161,739 Improvement in Transmitters and Receivers for Electric Telegraphs by A.G. Bell:
http://patimg1.uspto.gov/.piw?Docid=00161739&homeurl=http%3A%2F%2Fpatft.uspto.go v%2Fnetacgi%2Fnph-Parser%3FSect1%3DPTO1%2526Sect2%3DHITOFF%2526d%3DPALL%2526p%3D 1%2526u%3D%25252Fnetahtml%25252FPTO%25252Fsrchnum.htm%2526r%3D1%2526f%3DG%2526l% 3D50%2526s1%3D0161739.PN.%2526OS%3DPN%2F0161739%2526RS%3DPN%2F0161739&PageNum=&R type=&SectionNum=&idkey=NONE&Input=Viewfirstpage
All I see a blank page.

Sleep function became invalid when firefox open some web page

I am a game programer, I found some problem recently, I found my game program's sleep function became invalid when firefox open some web page.

I am a game programer, I found some problem recently, I found my game program's sleep function became invalid when firefox open some web page.

Why am I getting this error message when I close some web pages? Exc in ev handl: Error: Bad NPObject as private data!

This error message recently started popping up periodically on web pages that seem to have graphics or photos. There have been recent Adobe updates, but I can't verify which ones and whether they are the issue. On the other hand a recent Firefox update 7.0.1 indicated it was incompatible with a number of plug-ins? Could that be the source. Incidentally after I receive the message: it comes on twice, I am returned to a previous screen without further problem.

What is the high-pitced (like a ray gun) sound I get when I load some web pages?

It happens on about 30% of websites. Example: http://www.dslreports.com/forum/uverse . I thought it might be some sort of malware or security alert, but can't find any viruses on my computer. Does not occur with IE8 or Chrome. Also dont see anything on Firefox options tab that indicates an audio alert option for any problem.

Thank you madperson. I should have posted that I had originally tried that but it's not the problem. The noScript sound is similar but a little lower-pitched. But thanks for posting.

Some Artwork images are shown and some are not, in Finder ???

I scan the CD Cover of my music CD that I put in my iTunes (all with the same scanning setting; size, resolution, JPG...). When I go in the saved folder (Album Artwork) in Finder, some images are shown and some are not (even in Cover Flow), for those who are not, they only show a default image of a little boy with JPEG written in the center. When I go in iTunes, the image Artwork are OK, it's only in Finder that some are shown and some are not. In Finder, when I click for more info on the file, all the info seem OK and I see the preview image as it should. The bug is only in Finder.
What is the problem, and how can I fix that ???
Thank's

Buz,
If you select one of the images for which you can't see the thumbnail, Control + Click and select "Get Info". Can you see the thumbnail Preview in that view (Expand it if necessary)? What are the Sharing & Permissions at the bottom?

I am trying to connect a Macbook Pro to a projector for a Powerpoint presentation. When I use a VGA cable, the color of the projected images are not good. When I use a USB cable, the projected image includes the presenter notes on my computer screen?

To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
But however you do choose to link the two machines...
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
and select the Library that you moved. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.
Your first option didn't work because you imported one Library to another. Every version and thumbnail is imported like a distinct photo, you lose all your Albums, Keywords etc., the link between Original and Previews is destroyed, the non-destructive editing feature is ruined and so on. In summary: it's mess.
Your second option didn't work because you simply referenced her library on the old machine.

Hello Korawees,
I was researching the issue you are describing and had a recommendation. The device is very simple, so the software troubleshooting for it is pretty limitted so I think you shoud restore the iPod shuffle and re sync the content. That way, if it is a software issue, this will fix it. Here is the article named Restoring iPod shuffle to factory settings found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1481.
Before Starting
It is important to understand the difference between "update" and "restore." Update does not affect your settings or songs, it simply installs updated software that controls iPod shuffle. Restore erases the disk and restores iPod shuffle to its original factory condition with updated software. If you only need to update iPod shuffle, this should be done on the computer where music is normally synced. Updating on another computer will result in all songs being removed from iPod shuffle.
Warning: Because Restore erases all songs and files on iPod shuffle, make sure to back up any files you've saved on iPod shuffle. Your songs, podcasts, and audiobooks can be synced back to your iPod shuffle if the items are part of your iTunes library.
How to restore iPod shuffle
Ensure that you have an active Internet connection as new versions of iTunes and iPod Software may need to be downloaded to your computer.
Download and install the latest version of iTunes if you do not already have it installed.
Open iTunes, and then connect iPod shuffle to your computer.
After a few moments, iPod shuffle will appear in the Devices section on the left side of the Tunes window.
Select iPod shuffle under Devices and you will see information about it appear in the main iTunes window under the Summary tab/button for iPod shuffle (3rd and 4th generation) or the Settings tab/button for iPod shuffle (1st or 2nd generation).
The Version section tells you whether iPod shuffle is up to date or needs a newer version of the software.
Click the Restore button. You will be presented with one or more restore options that may prompt iTunes to automatically download the latest iPod Software. The 4-possible restore options are:
Restore Option 1: Restore - Restores with same iPod Software version already on iPod.
Restore Option 2: Use Same Version - Restores with same iPod Software version already on iPod even though a newer version is available.
Restore Option 3: Use Newest Version - Restores with the latest iPod Software currently on your computer.
Restore Option 4: Restore and Update - Restores after downloading the latest iPod Software on your computer.
If you are using a Mac, a message will appear prompting you to enter an administrator’s name and password.
A progress indicator will appear on the computer screen indicating that the restore process has started. Do not disconnect iPod shuffle during the restore process.
After the restore process is complete, the iPod shuffle's status light will flash orange continuously. The iPod Setup Assistant window will appear asking you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences as you did when you connected your iPod shuffle for the first time.
When you come to step 7, I recommend Restore Option 4.
Take care,
Sterling

Facebook is not loading properly and all my text and images are lined up along the right side of the page. How can this get fixed to the way it use to be?

Facebook is not loading properly and all my text and images are lined up along the right side of the page. How can this get fixed to the way it use to look?
Everyone who logs into Facebook on my Firefox has this problem however if we use Internet Explorer - facebook looks normal.

If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" as a high value can cause issues like you described.
* Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"

Why does the click-hold to reveal the image area outside the frame work on only some images?

I just upgraded to ID CC 2014 and the click-hold function to reveal the image area outside the frame only works for some images. Any suggestions?

Thanks, Peter. That could be the problem--operator error. But, I did a restart and all seems fine. If I get another image with a display issue, I'll be back

When I select print from any website article while in Firefox it only prints a blank page. When I open same web pages using Safari, they print fine. Documents in other appliations print fine. Only Firefox documents print blank page.

Quit Safari.
Open the Library folder in your home folder as follows:
☞ If running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, hold down the option key and select Go ▹ Library from the Finder menu bar.
☞ If running an older version of Mac OS X, select Go ▹ Go to Folder… from the Finder menu bar and enter “~/Library” (without the quotes) in the text box that opens.
Delete the following items from the Library folder:
Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Preferences/com.apple.quicktime.plugin.preferences.plist
Preferences/QuickTime Preferences
Relaunch Safari and test.

Detail Navigation missing when i link a web page in the WPC Scenario

Hi to all.
I had publish WPC site with the External Connector method.
I have some Web Pages linked in the Navigation Structure, when i link one of this from a internal link (for example in a List link or other) I displayed the page and the detail navigation is visible and the focus on the destination page is light.
Well, when I try to link a Web Page that not is linked in the Navigation structure (open it in the same page) the Navigation structure is missing.
Why? How i can leave the NAvigation structure and display the page?
Many thanks for your help in advance.

Hi,
this scenario is not supported by WPC. I think it was written somewhere (in a note or so). The problem is that if a page is not included in the navigation structure there is no navigation node associated. And so link to that page does not contain NavigationTarget therefore it does not trigger a real portal navigation but just displays the page in the iframe in which it has been fired. That means if you are using the standard framework page (i.e. with frames) page is shown in the inner most frame and the rest is untouched (side effect from which is that the TLN is not updated) and if you are using the light framework page after click the page is shown on the whole window as there are no iframes.
May be you would be able to work around this by selecting such page to be opened in pop up window. Other options exist but they are more complicated as solutions.
Hope that helps.
regards,

Cannot send email when clicking lonk on web page

I cannot send email when clicking link on web page.
When I would click the link to send via email I was being directed to hotmail to open new account.
Today the tech tried to assist me and completely messed up my email capabilities by setting up
windows live account.
I am thoroughly disgusted with FIOS internet services..Every time I've called them in the past month problem has been with someone else whose portal services they are using.
I cannot send emails because all my contact information cannot be moved.
I'm paying for FIOS internet service that is almost non existent.
THe VZ in home agent doesn't work nor does the FIOS information site.
My next move is to get rid of FIOS.
They create more problems then they solve with me.

If I understand your problem correctly, you are having trouble when clicking on a MailTo link on any webpage? What loads when you click this type of link is a setting in your browser. If you tell us what browser you are using, we can try to direct you to the setting.

When trying to cler all browsing history at the location bar, although I follow the instructions to 'ctrl, shift, delete, some web pages remain stuck. Even if I highlight them one at a time and hit delete, they remain. What can I do to eliminate them?

When trying to delete web pages from my history at the location bar drop-down area, I do as Firefox instructs by hitting the 'ctrl, shift, delete' keys but some web pages remain. Even if I highlight each page and hit delete, they remain. How can I eliminate these web pages?

If you visit a bookmarked site then that site will become a history item and shows as such in the location bar drop down list.

Have published iweb site for five years with no problems and just opened a new site and get - 404: Page not found This error is generated when there was no web page with the name you specified at the web site.-is the problem with iweb or with hosting? T

I am sorry if thie is republished-My first time doing this and I am not sure what goes where and where to hear feedback.
Have published iweb site for five years with no problems and just opened a new site and get -
404: Page not found
This error is generated when there was no web page with the name you specified at the web site.-
Troubleshooting suggestions:
Ensure the page you are linking to exists in the correct folder.
Check your file name for case sensitivity . Index.htm is not the same as index.htm!
Temporarily disable any rewrite rules by renaming your .htaccess file if it exists
is the problem with
iweb or with hosting?
One Apple tech started to fix Iweb and had to end session and the next said problem with hosting at Network Solutions as it published
to local folder. NWS has checked sttting a few times-
Any help would be extremely appreciated as trying to fix this for about five weeks
Thanks VG

It's a really bad idea to post your email address - it's an invitation to spam - and I've asked the Hosts to remove it. (Even though I've now noticed you mis-spelled it! - anyway, never post your address in a forum.)
You have a site here: http://virginiagordon.com/www.virginiagordon.com/WELCOME.html
If that's not the page you are having trouble with, what is that page's URL?

In some web pages, pdf files are downloaded in very small kb and not opening despite I have Adobe reader, Pro and plug in

I have Firefox 3.6.6, downgraded from higher versions since I have this problem below.
At some web pages (mostly professional academic sites like Oxford Journals), when I am clicking to get pdf of an article, Firefox start downloading ridiculously small size and cannot open it as it gives the message "Acrobat could not open 'filename.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged ..."
I know the file is not damaged, because I can open them in explorer. And some websites are also working properly in Firefox. I do not care if it opens in firefox or pops up separately.
I have reloaded Acrobat and Firefox but problem continues.

hello vijayabhaskarv, that sounds as if you're using the pdf viewer built into firefox per default, which might not work in all situations. please see the following article in order to select a different plugin to render pdf files: [[How to disable the built-in PDF viewer and use another viewer]]
