Web site will not open due to incompatible brower

I have been trying to do my financial aid on the fafsa web site it will not let me fill out the application. the screen reads incompatible browser detected...I am confused, Firefox is by default browser so why am i having trouble accessing this site?

The FAFSA site is a bit out of date on Firefox versions and rejects both 4 and 5. You either can use IE for that site, or you can try a portable version of Firefox 3.6:

Web site will not open on a Mac

A friend has helped me to develop a simple web site in Flash
which I use to manage my photo galleries, which are created with
Lightroom or Photoshop. I am familiar with most of Adobe CS3 except
Flash or Dreamweaver, but I can get by with just editing text and
uploading new galleries, so the site works really well for me.
Unfortunately I have received feedback from people using
Safari or Camini browsers and the Mac OS that the site will not
open. They just see black and the message "Get Flash". The site
works great on a PC using both I Explorer and Safari.
I have no knowledge of how to overcome this problem and not
having access to a Mac, no way to "fiidle about" and experiment. I
would very much appreciate some advice from anyone in the know. The
web site is at www.duncangrove.com . Please have a look at my pics
if you check it out!
Regards
Duncan Grove

your site is doing a strict check for a certain version of
the flash plug-in, 9.0.45. It's probably not necessary to go that
far, just checking for version 9.0 should be fine. The Mac is only
up to 9.0.47 and many people are going to have a .28 version, which
gets refused by your script.

My GoDaddy hosted, iweb created web site will not open flash

Hello,
I'll try to be thorough:
I created a site with iWeb - It is band site.
I uploaded/published the site to godaddy.com, along with my URL www.momsgreatweed.com
If I access the URL from the Mac on which I created the site, it works fine, in SAFARI only (not firefox) even after having emptied the cache.
On all other computers (Mac and PC) I cannot open the "Tunes" page, which has a flash player and 10 mp3 files.
I receive the following error:
To view this page, you must log into area "me.com" on idisk.mac.com:80
Needless to say, this is making me slightly insane. I can't possibly be the only person to ever experience this issue. I did call GoDaddy "tech support"; but a 30 minute call turned out to be useless.
Please, before I pull my hair out...any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
Be well,

You pasted the code in the HTML Snippet.
Upon further inspection I noticed the links to the tunes are wrong too :
(Sorry for the streched code)

CS6, used for several years, will not open due to Cloud issue????????

A Pages file will not open due to index.xml not found, what is up with that?

I recently saved a file on Pages 5.5.2. on my IMac hard drive. Now I find that on attempting to open it the file will not open due to index.xml not found. Hoe do I correct this?

I have this issue, as well - although perhaps in a different content. When I try to open a file I created in the previous version of Pages, I will frequently (but not always), received the "index.xml not found" message. I am very concerned that I may lose access to some of these files. The old Pages icon is still on my dashboard, although I've downloaded the new Pages (that icon only appears when I open a new document). I thought I needed to upgrade the old documents to the new Pages, but this didn't work. Does anyone have any ideas? And, I'm not a techie - so you'll need to break it down for me.

Java is not available for iOS devices, so the site you are trying to access won't work.

A favorite web site will not load in 4.01, but did in earlier version. Says "This website does not supply ownership information. Connection Not Encrypted." What can I do to use this important website?

I just this morning updated to the latest Firefox version, and then find that this much used site will not open. It gives the two messages I list above. The site is www.30god.com.
I cannot figure out what setting to change to get the site to work.
I much need some counsel.
Thanks.
James Muller

I appreciate this option, to go back to an earlier version, but I really want to use the latest FF, so the counsel from cor-rel, about dealing with cache and cookies, is the solution I pursued. And it worked!
But thanks for responding to me. It's great to know that such support is out there.

Web sites will not fully load. MSNBC, Fox and CNN load a partial page or load a text only version. this issue just started about a week ago.

Some news web sites will not fully load. MSNBC will only show the head line and advertisers. CNN and Fox show a text only version with very limited pictures and the same for . Durdge report loads fully as will the Chicago Trib. seems like only certain news sites are subject to this partial display. have not seen this on commercial sites.

Try deleting cookies and cache:
1. Tools| Clear recent history
2. Time range to clear: Everything
3. If it isn't already selected, select '''Cookies''' and '''Cache'''
4. '''Clear now'''
Test for the problem

What happens when you try?
Try a restart.
Do a backup, using either Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure files/data can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.
Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
Isolating an issue by using another user account
Try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account. Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear and again when you log in. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don’t do them all at once.
