What has happened with Safari?

Safari 6.0.4 on retina MacBook Pro, practically ALL images on the web are blurry now. I mean, even the Google doodle image for example or just about any image on any webpage. I'm kinda new to Safari (and Mac) but this was definitively not the case with previous version.
This is not happening with Firefox or Chrome, but with the built-in browser? Any input on this?

Hi Mike,
Try navigating to..
System Preferences > QuickTime > 'Advanced' Tab > 'MIME Settings'
.. and uncheck 'Images/PDF image'. Restart Safari.

What has happened with Apple Support?

I convinced my friend to purchase a refurb Macbook Pro last week. I explained "the same warrenty, I've purchase 3 refurbs with no problems, yada yada".
His MBP shows up with a "5th leg" under the Superdrive! Dented from the inside out. We found this out when we tried to start installing some software via DVD and the DVD got jammed inside and wouldn't eject (and sounding like it was shredding said DVD). Finally after a small pair of tweezers and a quick hand, I was able to snag the end of the dvd and "help it out".
I told my friend how sorry I was, and explained that we will ship it back and Apple will surely just ship another refurb to him.
Currently, he has spoken with 6 different people, over an hour of phone time, and none have followed through with not even a return number! Plus, each and evey new "tech" that he speaks to wants his name, order number, address, credit card, and probably his favorite color!
What has happened? I have been praising Apple for 25 years, and now I'm just embarrassed (for me and Apple).
Had to vent, and was wondering if anyone else has had this experience lately?

Your friend only needs a single 'yes' to resolve this. Tell him/her to hang in there! Insist on good service. It is definitely owed.
I have found that dedicating the time to get it done, and then not accepting any answer except the ethically right one, will achieve the right result. I would bet the call center folks are trained to drag feet on giving return authorizations on refurbs. That is an institutional thing that is not particular to just Apple. The ignored problem often will just go away. On a call to support the need is to insist on going uphill to supervisor and then manager and not hang up until a equitable solution is arrived at. Polite, unfazed - insistant.
We all hate it when an error like this makes Apple look small.

What's happening with Safari?

I'm getting the message "Safari can't connect to the server" in huge letters when I try to get to some of my favorite web pages. Other sites like 5/3 bank I have no problems with. This is really bugging me especially since I emptied the cache and reset Safari. I also went through all the preferences to make sure nothing was screwed up there. Why is it being so picky on what it opens?????

Hi Valdanat...
I've had a similar problem with Safari and Youtube.
The movie page opens and displays Ok all but the actual movie itself when playing i was getting the sound but the movie was just a green screen. It also stalled everything while the movie was playing ie couldn't even close the window.
Click on the link and let the movie finish.
Right click on the movie and select Settings
On the first tab Display un-check the *Enable Hardware Acceleration*
Close and Restart Safari and try the link again and you should be OK.

What is Happening with Safari?

Since this weekend Safari is balking at opening all pages. I have a fast connection and have never had problems with Safari. The 3.1 update seems to have made this problem worse. Anybody have a simple answer? (I've updated Adobe and Flip4 with no difference fyi.)

I have a new MacBook Pro and I have had a lot of problems with Safari. Slow speed, crashing, hanging up indefinitely, not finding servers, etc. I also am having trouble with gmail on it--for example, the Reply button will not work. For now I am using Firefox but it is a bit slower than Safari now that I have added DNS addresses in my System preferences. Since I have gotten my Mac I have not had a good internet experience. I am disappointed about that.

What has happened with Spotlight? Can't find files anymore. Why?

Apparently I have two iPhoto libraries. When I use Spotlight to find them, I get an iPad user guide as the first return. One library is in Pictures. If I search that Finder folder for iTunes Library, search finds nothing. If I search that folder for iPhoto it returns iPhoto Slideshows, a file that follows after the iPhoto library file. If I use Spotlight, it returns hundreds of unrelated files. Not useful.
If I double-click the library in Pictures, I get this message in iPhoto: Do you want to switch the current iPhoto Library from “iPhoto Library” to “iPhoto Library” and relaunch iPhoto?
I suspect if I do, I'll never find the library that is now open. How'd I get two libraries? I didn't do that.
My main question: Why doesn't Spotlight return the location of the file I'm looking for?
Seems to me I've been finding files very efficiently with Spotlight for years, but this new version is almost useless.

Yes, I've done that. I just did it again in response your suggestion. Had a fusion disk problem s few days ago; had to wipe it and restore so I'm working with a clean system. Should have been indexed... I dropped my whole hard disk in the privacy space; nothing happened. Then I dropped iMac Home; I could see it was indexing. But nothing changed...
Today the problem was searching for a library and I wondered if Spotlight is coded to not find such Apple created fundamentals.... But daily, no matter what I'm searching for, even if I find it, it is not as efficient as it used to be.
Maybe I'm just a grouchy old man, but it seems to me Spotlight was better before it was improved.

What has happened with Quality with an Acer Product?

My son purchased an Acer Aspire E1 in the Spring of 2014, the Hard Drive failed within 8 months. No problem, the warranty took care of it. I now have had the Hard Drive replaced again within the 7 months of the factory replaced one. Acer's tech support lured me in to purchasing their Recovery Thumb Drive, saying it would solve the problem. To find out that when trying to boot up, a message displays L:/MAPP is missing. Took it to a Reputable Computer Repair Center, they replaced the Hard Drive. When you try to contact Acer about their product failing, then having it Factory replaced, only to fail again, you get some 3rd party,from a foreign land, who also wants money to talk to you. I want someone from ACER to refund some or all the cost of replacing their Hard Drive, which should of came with a warranty,since they replaced it, and the refund of the Recovery Thumb Drive, that wasn't needed to fix Acers problematic Hard Drive. My son uses the Acer's laptop for every day normal use. No gaming downloads, no 100,000 picture down loads, just to be used for collegic activities. I have a Dell Inspiron that has lasted me 4 years and counting. Well Acer, are you going to help a DAD out of possible Acer production quality failure??

Use their Recovery thumbdrive they gave you and format it. Then save your son's data on it. Unplug the thumbdrive and carry the laptop out to the garbage and drop it in the can. Go out and buy a new laptop from a company that actually provides support.

What has happened to Safari??

Can't find pages on servers and blank white screens??

Dan --
It doesn't have to do with the font 'Last Resort," as recommended in the linked thread.
This is from Kurt Lang, our Font expert here --
A’s with boxes around them is always a sign of trouble with the main system
font, Lucida Grande.
Quick possible fix is to remove ALL font cache files from the system to see
if it's just bad cache data. For that, you need to use OnyX or other utility
which will remove both system and user cache files. A Safe Mode boot won't
work since it only removes cache data from the user account you do a safe
boot to.
If after that the problem returns, then Lucida Grande itself is damaged and
needs to be replaced.
I could be your new fonts added with iWork and Office are causing duplicates --
I would look carefully in the Lucida family which may conflict with the LucidaGrande dfont,
which is a System Font. Hope this helps.

I have used Firefox for years with no problem. For the past 2 weeks it has crashed repeatedly after 1 to 15 minutes. What has happened? Is it the updates?

Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

Firefox, all the sudden, will now load the site but will not let me go to a chat area in the website, what has happened?

I have used on other comp to make sure not site and have been able use w Internet Explorer... So i am at a loss as to what has happened all the sudden. Please help me...very frustrated w this... Jared

Original problem I noticed was that regular websites I go to (such as msn) were only partially downloading. I could see the text on the site but no pictures or videos. All web surfing was extremely slow. When I would go to a site such as man I would see another address in the lower left corner for "ads1.msads.net" or "cdn.optimizely.com" that is was trying to connect to. I tried using all three of my browsers (firefox, safari, chrome) and got the same response on all browsers. After I spent some time researching the issue I decided I probably had a adware/malware problem so I decided to try adwaremedic.com. I could also not access that site along with thesafemac.com or apple.com. I was also getting the same response on my other devices (iPhone, iPad, and a mac air). I could not access any of these sites on any of my devices although I could get to almost any other site although it was very slow. At that point I decided to unplug the router. I also did a number of other things before then to try and manually get rid of any adware. Eventually I got msn back working, apple.com, and the speed was much faster. But, I still can not access adwaremedic and thesafemac.com. I could access these on my phone with 3G but not on my wifi. This is where the problem still stands. I am sure I still have some adware on my computer and need to find a way to remove it. I am no techie so the complicated manual fixes are difficult for me to do.

I don't know what has happened but I can't open iPhoto. When I try to open it I receive a caution "The iPhoto Library is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have permission to make changes to it." How do I solve this??!!

I don't know what has happened but I now can't open iphoto. I get a caution when I try which says the iphoto library is locked! It was working perfectly fine this afternoon until I tried to upload some photos from my camera and my computer started to run very slow and wasn't recognising my camera. I tried to quit iphoto and then when I came back in to it, this was the message I received. As far as I am aware I didn't alter any settings or put on any locks. Please help!!

What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later...
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

I have had iTunes on my laptop for about 6 yrs and all of a sudden it has stopped working. I am receiving an Error 6034 message. I uninstalled and tried to reinstall and keep getting the message. What has happened?

I have had my laptop for about 5 or 6 yrs. I have had iTunes on it since I have had it. All of sudden my iTunes has stopped working. I am receiving an Error 6034 message. What has happened?

I use to stream music from my iphone to my airport express via my stereo, it no longer is an option on the radio app. what has happened?

Not sure what has happened to my airport expres but I can no longer stream music to my stereo via the TuneIn Radio app or using my macbook pro, need help in fixing this problem.

UPDATE:
I have been stress testing StreamToMe in the house and "out in the wild" and it is working very well. There are one or two clunky steps in order to switch from the in-my-house wifi to the cellular network but it's just better (to me) than uploading about 750 GB of music that is restricted by iTunes rules and limitations to "the cloud". The major advantage is that this solution plays more file formats than iTunes will. In addition, I can access music files anywhere on my mac - even if they are not in my iTunes library. Playlists from iTunes are available, too.
I am not associated with this company in any way. I am astounded that there are not more solutions available and that there are not more people discussing this issue. Subscription models like Spotify are great and the cloud is fine for those that don't have large libraries But when I have a humongous library and I don't want to move it around up and down to someone else's server or pay to access it after I have already paid for it I find the lack of ease of doing this baffling.
I hope that this info can help someone looking for information relating to this type of solution...

Once I downloaded the new IOS 5.0 I've lost all of my photos that were stored on my PC, and I no longer have access to them on the IPOD. Cannot figure out what has happened. Please help.

Thanks lllaass, but I am not computer literate and do not understand exactly what it is I am supposed to do. All of my photos were stored on Microsoft Windows Live Photo Gallery. When I now access the gallery the only thing that is there are the folders with the title of the folders. The pictures that were in those folders are now gone. I can no longer access them on my IPOD either. My photo library on my IPOD is now empty.
Thanks again for your help.
