Tutorials on the Apple Website play in Safari and Chrome, but not always in Firefox. Java and Flash plug ins are up to date.

I was trying to play the Time Machine video tutorial on the Apple Website (I have an imac 10.6.6) and it won't play in Firefox, but it will in Safari and Chrome. This has happened before but then seemed to fix itself. Other videos (Youtube for eg.) play fine. All plugs (Java and Flash) are up to date. Just wondering why this could happen.

I have had this problem for a few days, no sound in Firefox, but IE and WMP (offline) have sound, this is a Firefox ONLY problem, so the volumes are all set correctly and the drivers and needed files are there, I've tried every fix that people have suggested on Google like checking the flash player settings, creating the "missing.reg" registry file and importing it, etc...
nothing works, I may just have to switch to Safari or Chrome, I watch a lot of video online (Youtube, ESPN3, NFL.com, etc.) so this is a huge problem...

  • Website centers in safari 5.4 but not safari 5.9

    Need Help!! 
    My website will center on Safari 5.4 but not in Safare 5.9  
    any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

    What is the URL to a file that displays this behavior?
    My guess is WMP file formats and Flip4Mac differences in the two machines.

  • Firefox Check Your Plugins found "unknown plug-ins". My other plug-ins are up to date. To keep Firefox running safely and smoothly can the "unknowns" be safely uninstalled? How do I know if I need them? Where do they come from?

    These are the Plug-ins in question;

    I cannot say with certainty any plugins known or unknown installed on my computer are problematic. My other plugins are up to date. "Unresponsive Scripts" comes up quite often. No particular website, Grooveshark and Centurylink more than any others. Are the two (Plug-ins and Scripts) related?

    option discovered in preferences. Really this and any feature that moves deletes or edits a users data should as far as possible be OFF BY DEFAULT. It shouldn't by default and without the users specific say do this dangerous and unnecessary thing without even letting the user know what it's doing!!! And then cause me a few hours (as i'm new to mac) searching for the option so as to switch it off. If i hadn't noticed the status cage declaring that it was copying files then i might never have twigged that this insane thing was occurring. And if i hadn't of noticed i would have been left maintaining the contents of the folder i copied the files to, the folder which as far as i was informed and so believed was also the location of the music files i was playing. How does Apple justify this 'genius' piece of software non-design? Surely it will hurt no one if this was off by default for new users - overall at least i dare say it would cause a lot less distress in the future for the unsuspecting public at large. Thanks for the support.

  • Invisible td in Safari and Chrome but not other browsers

    Hi, I am currently building a homepage with php, mysql, javascript and ofc html.
    At the top of my page I have a table with some graphics and a login/menu system. I have several pages in my project and the issue I have only presents itself on 2 of them, also the problem only occures in Safari and Chrome (and not in Explorer, Firefox or Opera). The code is more or less identical so I have a very hard time understanding what the problem could be, maybe someone here has an idea
    Here is code from both one of the pages that does not work and from one that does work (coloring is a bit weird since it's both html and php):
    http://pastebin.com/AQXZ4rGw
    (prior to the code pasted there is some database-stuff but I think that should not affect it)
    Best Regards /Oskar

    I found out that if I add tons of nbsp; after for example "Add" I get background for as long as the string is, so I can basicly cover the entire width with nbsp; this is not a very pretty solution however.

  • What's causing this phatom space in Safari and Chrome but not FF

    http://www.energyschool.com/CSES_Home/Resources.html
    I'm not figuring it out.

    Cyclosaurus (et al),
    Thanks for the replies.
    What I'm noticing is that when I'm inserting text in to the content body textbox (which is very large) the newline is pushing the text above it, upward, instead of the text expanding the textbox downward.
    I'm appreciative of Wyodor's and OT's options but not feeling 'met' by them. Cyclosuarus comes closer to a fix I'm looking for but as I have encountered before, there seems to be some past issue(s) cropping up that don't allow for open sharing.
    So I'm curious, would this javascript address mozilla and webkit rendering engines? I wouldn't have to post-edit the html I could just insert this into an HTML widget, yes?

  • I used to be able to open links in a new tab by clicking my middle mouse button, but now that I've updated it to the most recent update it doesn't work anymore. How do I fix this? I really love that feature. It works in IE and Chrome but not Mozilla.

    Ok, I used to be able to open links up in a new Tab using my middle mouse button. However, I updated firefox with the automatic Updates on the 26th of October and now I no longer can open links with my middle mouse button. Why? I use this feature just about every time I go searching on the internet so I really would like it back. I couldn't find anything that it was related to in the options so I turn this over to you guys.

    Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode? <br />

  • Safari and Chrome will not display some pages right for new user account

    Not sure this is a Safari issue actually. Behavior is also in Chrome, but not Firefox. If I need to post elsewhere please advise.
    24"imac running 10.5.8. 2gb ram, software update run,
    Setup a new user account. Machine will have 2 users.
    When I login as the new user, in both Safari and Chrome, some pages - google, ebay, amazon, cnn, yahoo, do not display correctly. Mainly empty space, a few graphics all wrong. They do display correctly in Firefox.
    I assumed it was the user. So I added a 3rd user. Same behavior. Tried giving the new user admin rights. Same problem.
    For the admin account, everything's fine on those pages, both in Safari and Chrome.
    It feels like the new user is not getting access to something it needs, but it also feels like more than a font problem. Thanks for any suggestions. Dan

    Thanks for your thoughts. Here's what I've learned. The browsers display correctly for the new user after SafeBoot. I removed all startup items, to no avail. Removed all fonts from the new user account, nothing. Removed all fonts from the admin user's library, nothing. Then I removed all fonts from the HD library, and that fixed it for the new user. Now I just have to figure out which one it was.
    So in summary, a bad font in the HD library was affecting Safari and Chrome (but not Firefox) in new user accounts, but not in the admin user's account. Nice. D

  • I've downloaded quicktime but every time I try to play a video on the apple website using internet explorer it asks me to download quicktime. If I use safari it works fine. Any suggestions

    I've downloaded quicktime but every time I try to play a video on the apple website using internet explorer it asks me to download quicktime again yet if I'm safari it plays fine. Any suggestions?

    That sounds like IE wants you to install the QuickTime ActiveX control.
    Go back to the page you're getting the message on. At the bottom of the screen, can you see a long rectangular box asking you to allow/install something? (Sorry, it's been a while since I've seen the box in question, so I can't recall the precise wording.)
    If so, allow/OK in that box. After the ActiveX control has gone in, can you see the videos in IE?

  • I have not been able to find any information re: the Flashback virus and Apple remedies on the Apple website.  Am I missing something?

    I have not been able to find any information re: the Flashback virus on the Apple website.  Has Apple put out anything on this?

    The ‘Flashback Trojan’:
    A version of an existing Trojan Horse posing as a legitimate Flash Player installer (named “Flashback.A” by a security firm) is designed to disable updates to the default Mac OS X anti-malware protection system, potentially leaving the system open to the manual installation of other malware without any system warnings. The most recent versions bypass any user action and automatically installs itself after an affected website is visited.
    http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/11/10/19/fake_adobe_flash_malware_seeks_to_ disable_mac_os_x_anti_malware_protection.html
    (Adobe is aware of malware posing as its Flash Player and warns users to ignore any updates that didn't originate on its own servers. "Do not download Flash Player from a site other than adobe.com," said David Lenoe, Adobe's product security program manager, in an entry on Adobe Product Security Incident Response Team's PSIRT blog. "This goes for any piece of software (Reader, Windows Media Player, QuickTime, etc). If you get a notice to update, it's not a bad idea to go directly to the site of the software vendor and download the update directly from the source. If the download is from an unfamiliar URL or an IP address, you should be suspicious.")
    Flashback Trojan - Prevention of infection:
    In order to prevent a potential infection with “Flashback” Trojans, Mac users should always obtain their copy of Adobe Flash Player directly from Adobe’s official website and to disable the "Open 'safe' files after downloading" option in Safari Preferences/General to avoid automatically running files downloaded from the Internet. Also, do not turn on Java in Safari Preferences/Security. Few websites use Java. Javascript is something entirely different and should be left active.
    The Flashback Trojan does not affect PPC (non-Intel) Macs, nor has it been noted to affect users running Tiger OS 10.4.11 or Leopard OS 10.5.8.
    Last, but by no means least, using Open DNS is the simplest way of preventing infection in the first place. Open DNS also protects against phishing attacks, re-directs, speeds up your internet connection, and works for all users of OS X from Tiger upwards:

    Flashback Trojan - Detection and Removal
    Users with Intel Macs running Snow Leopard OS 10.6 or Lion OS 10.7 should ensure that they have downloaded all the recent Java updates from Apple, which are designed to prevent infection and also remove any infection already present.
    New Macs running Lion do not have either Flash Player nor Java installed. If you running Lion and have not already downloaded and installed Java, you should download the ‘Flashback malware removal tool’ from Apple:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5246  (356KB) which includes the same code as the Java update that plugged a security hole which allowed the malware to automatically install itself without admin authorization.
    You can also use this to check whether you have been infected (for Intel Macs only) and remove it if required:

  • I am trying to download an iWork manual from the Apple website.  All I get is a plain black page, even tho' I am following download instructions carefully.  I have the latest version of Adobe Reader.

    I am trying to download an iWork 09 manual from the Apple website but all I get is a big plain black window.  I am following the download instructions very carefully.  I know I have the most recent version of Adobe Reader.  Using Safari, when I try to "Save As", I get a message saying "cannot export".  What am I doing wrong??

    Turns out this is an overall problem....any PDF I try to download on line turns up the same plain black page.  Doesn't matter whether it is what I tried to download mentioned above, or if it's the latest power bill from our utility company.  An UGLY black screen!!   I have it set up that downloaded PDF documents should open in Preview.
    On the other hand, any PDF documents in my computer files open with no problem.
    Prior to installing Lion, most of my activity lately has been converting AppleWorks documents to Pages and, if that doesn't work, I convert to PDF.  Other than that, I haven't been fooling around with any settings.
    Once again, I appreciate  your input....any other suggestions?

  • IPad Mini is stolen. Can I register this as stolen on the Apple website so that the scum who stole it can't use it

    iPad Mini is stolen. Can I register this as stolen on the Apple website so that the scum who stole it can't use it. Or atleast when they try and register it, I know about it?

    Apple (and no one else) can not assist (with serial number or iCloud) in finding a lost or stolen iPad.
    Report to police along with serial number. Change all your passwords.

  • Is the apple website not opening after installation of mountain lion?

    is the apple website not opening after installation of mountain lion? because after i updated from lion, apple's webpage is like not opening from any browser..even from safari..
