Why are my browsers not working properly?

I have Chrome, Safari and Firefox installed on my iMac but for the last three weeks all three of them are malfunctioning.  Some pages will not open at all, some will open but with no pictures.  Some of the sites mainly affected seem to be Fox News, Facebook, DrudgeReport plus others.  Has me baffled.  Thanks in advance for any insight you can give me.

Please complete your profile, at the very least we need to know what version of OS X is installed on the computer. You can edit your profile by clicking Your Stuff in the upper right of this page then clicking Profile and edit as needed.
If you are running SL or Lion the problem may be that Adobe Flash is not installed. It doesn't sound like you have done any troubleshooting so in Safari please click Safari-Empty Caches and Safari-Reset Safari.

  • Why are flash games not working properly on Firefox, while they work perfectly on other browsers?

    I own a MacBook os x 10.5.8 Intel core duo.
    My problem started a few weeks ago, I tried playing a flash game, first it came up that i didnt have flash, which I did, so I ran an update but I already had the latest version.
    I gave up on the games on that page and went to newgrounds.com, but turns out everytime I try to play a game the controls wont work properly on any game.
    I thought it might be my flash, so I went to chrome and played the same game, no problems, to opera, no problems, to safari also no problems. So the problem is my firefox and the flash plug in? I already uninstalled it and re installed it, downloaded it again and followed every piece of advice I could find about this, nothing works.
    I appreciate some help with this matter, I like working with firefox, wouldnt want to change to other browsers.

    Hi gorgonzola357, there are some platform-specific differences between Windows 7 and MacOSX that may be relevant.
    Have you tried disabling the new protected mode in Flash 11.3, since that feature is currently being debugged? See this support article from Adobe under the heading "Last Resort": [http://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493 Adobe Forums: How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?]

  • Why does iMessages does not work properly ? Please help me ! Its works better with the previous version if compared with the latest iOS

    Why does iMessages does not work properly ? Please help me ! Its works better with the previous version if compared with the latest iOS

    Many, many thanks for both of you Todd and Rick.
    to Rick:
    I suppose you mean the Color Settings in Project Settings as follows:
    - Working Space: None
    - Match Legacy ... Gamma Adjustments checked ON
    But it does not correct the colors in effects. And checking or unchecking Make Movie/Output Module Settings/Color Management/Profile/Preserve RGB does not make any difference.
    to both of you:
    Those parts of the video image that does not have color effects are just fine. In these parts the color is preserved when reimporting to FCP. However, those parts having color effects (except Levels, as decribed earlier) have altered color results. So, only the parts having effects affecting color are misinterpreted in the image area. The mismatch is of course seen in AE, before making the movie.
    What I ment with "Color Management not working properly" is that (instead of "disabling" it) Color Management does not seem to be able to correct this "misinterpretation" or difference in effect handling between AE 6 and 10.
    So, would you have any solution for this problem?
    Again, many thanks for your fast replies!

  • Why are my alerts not working?

    Why are my alerts not working?  Sometimes the alerts work and other times I have to manually retrieve messages.

    You can set alerts at verizonwireless.com, and you can set alerts on most smartphones as well, and those can be highly customized as to when you are alerted.
    Go to settings, data usage, and there are/should be options to view, limit, and alert you as to your mobile data usage on the phone itself.

  • Why does my ipad not work properly when charging

    when my ipad is plugged to charger it does not work properly  goes crazy

    Not sure what 'goes crazy' means but it most likely should not do that.  Try a reset... press the home and sleep/lock buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    Also try it plugged into another outlet (on another circuit) and/or try another charger.

  • Why does my cdplayer not work properly

    My cd player that is built into my mac has stopped  working properly . It wont play some dvd's now ando some  music cd's why?
    The player is vertical , built into the right side of my display  screen. Not horizontal like most are . I thout of getting a cd disc that cleans the player would that help?

    Not true!
    A standard CD/DVD lens cleaner that uses tiny brushes will do the job.
    But you should try resetting the SMC:

    If none of that works (and these vertically installed Superdrives that were originally designed for horizontal use in a MacBook can be fickle) then any USB DVD burner/player will work well, and cost from as little as $40. Just make sure that it is stated to be Mac compatible.

  • HT4623 Why are my sounds not working?

    Why are my sounds for my messaging, facebook and mail not working?

    Hi PMorgan,
    Go to Settings>Sounds - go to the bottom of the screen, and make sure your Lock Sounds and Keyboard Clicks are turned to "On". Also, if they are already on that setting, turn them off and back on again to see if that fixes the issue.
    If it doesn't, then reset your iPad (no data will be lost). Press the Home and Power buttons at the same time and hold them both down until the Silver Apple appears. After the Home screen comes back up, see if your issue is resolved.
    Cheers,

  • TS1559 why are 4s's not working with new software and apple won't come good

    I have a iphone 4s with the new update is making my phone slow and the wifi is not working. 200.00 to fix it. I have apple laptop, desktop, 4 iphones two 4s and two 5c's and they will not fix what their update did to my phone. Any feed back to help resolve this would be appreciated. I put it in the freezer( an online solution), restarted it to factory settings, reset my wifi and nothing everyone one says there are many 4s's that are doing this since the new software. Sounds like they just want you to buy new phones and my contract is not up for one year with my provider, I am very frustrated and disappointed.

    No intelligetent person puts electronics in the freezer.
    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  If none of this resolves, then the device should be taken to Apple for evaluation.
    If Apple determines the device has suffered a hardware failure, they will either replace under warranty (if under warranty) or offer an Out of Warranty replacement.
    So what exactly is the problem?  They offered an Out of Warranty replacement for the defective device.

  • Why will some CDs not work properly with my Macbook Pro with Retina display?

    I have the external CD drive for the Macbook Pro with Retina display, but I'm finding that some CDs will not run their applications properly. However, on the older editions of the Macbook Pro (for example, on the 13"), the programs run fine. Is there something I can download to fix this problem?

    When the MBP-R does not run CD applications "properly", what does it do?
    Is it possible that the applications that do not run properly are incompatible with Mountain Lion? For example, might they be old PowerPC applications that relied on Rosetta to run on Intel CPUs?

  • Why are YouTube videos not loading properly on Safari?

    YouTube videos on Safari are not loading properly.  It is as if the YouTube viewing window loads right-justified on the screen. Which ends up being like almost a perfect square on the screen, with the unfortunate result that part of the video is truncated at the right.  The same exact video on Chrome loads just fine.
    I've just updated Flash and the problem persists.
    Here's a screenshot.
    The right part of the image shows a "Google 414 That's an Error" along with the description "The requested URL/adi/N8380.280090.ACCORDANTMEDIA/B7762596.101545485... is too large to process. That’s all we know."
    Is anyone else having the same issue?

    Hi Carlos ...
    Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Advanced tab.
    Click Delete All under Browsing Data and Settings
    Back to Safari. Press Command + Option + E to empty the Safari cache.
    Quit and relaunch Safari, try a video.
    And make Allow all other plug-ins is selected in Safari > Preferences > Security
    Command ,  (comma) will open the Safari preferences pane for you, or from your Safari menu click Safari > Preferences
    If nothing above helped, try troubleshooting Safari extensions.
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

  • Why are some Hyperlinks not working in FF but do work in IE

    when I open any website,especially ones like Screwfix and it says click to enlarge, nothing happens yet if I click on a link to another page it goes there or if it is a link to further down the text.
    it also happens on a banking site . in the header it has 'help' this does not work,yet if I go to the help in the body of the site and click on help it goes there. all these sites work OK in IE. this has only started since I updated to 3.6.

    Thanks Carolyn
    Hopefully Kurt Lang will update the encyclopedic tome on font management that Tofer is riffing
    The key here is that something in Lion is corrupting the font cache for Safari. One could jump ship and simply use Firefox or Chrome and wait until AAPL fixes Safari or whatever is causing the issue. I was thinking that finally letting FontAgent Pro start managing the System Fonts might do the trick but there's a bug there that won't let me authorize the caper. So, now I gotta engage Insider over that issue.
    What I might do is to see what Font Book can do for a minute…
