Why can't I get some buttons to work on websites? Need to enable something?

Recently, I am not able to use certain portions of 3 websites that I used to be able to use. I can get to the pages, and some buttons/links work within pages, but when I try to click on some buttons on some pages, nothing happens at all. The computer is not frozen, I can do other things on the page. Example #1 - I was trying to access my photo albums at Snapfish.com but I cannot access my albums, or select albums to which I will download photos. #2. I was trying to create a gmail e-mail address. When I tried I had a message about enabling something. Didn't know what it meant or how to do that. Any ideas on what to adjust on my computer so that I can do what I used to be able to do?

Which browser are you using? Do you have Enable Java checked in it's preferences? When you get a message it's a good idea to write down exactly what it says rather than dismiss it and wonder later what it said about something.

Why can't I get Google Maps to work?

Why can't I get Google Maps to work?

Here are some suggestions for getting the best results from this site.
Give details of the problem. A remark such as "X doesn't work" conveys no useful information. If X did work, you wouldn't be here. Instead, you should post something like this: "I did A; I expected B; but I got C." Include the complete, verbatim text of any error messages you saw, and specify where you saw them: in an application window, a CrashReporter window, a log, or whatever.
Also describe the steps you’ve taken yourself, if any, to try to resolve the issue. If the problem is of recent origin, did you make any changes to your setup just before you first noticed it? Is the problem reproducible or intermittent? That is, does it always manifest itself when you take a certain action, or only at unpredictable times?
Before posting, ask yourself whether it’s likely that you are the the only person ever to have had this problem. If not, search the discussions for answered questions similar to yours. If you found any pertinent information, but it didn't help, give details.
If asking about third-party software, specify the version.

Why can't I get the average function work with empty cells?

The thing that I am having a problem with is that I made a different form that calculates the average no matter how may of the cells have numbers or not and I didn't use an if function. I have tried with this other form and and it calulates as if all the cells where being used. I am using the [*] in both instances but it only works in the one I did earlier.

Why Can't I get the slideshow to work in iWeb?

I recently created and purchased a photo book successfully. I made a pdf of the book and saved it to iPhoto. I can't get the slideshow to work. Keeps telling me to drag photos somewhere, but they are already posted. If I click I can get to the spot where you can move to the next one—but no slideshow!
I have watched the slideshow(2x's) that is listed in this topic. I thought I was doing as it said—but no luck.
Anyone with ideas??

Patti:
Read Steps 1-5 of Tutorial #6a at Old Toad's Tutorials for a way to get a book's pages into iPhoto as jpg files which can then be used to create an iWeb slideshow like I've done here.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Why can't I get some of my music to sync?

I had an iPhone 4S, I attempted to change the password to my Apple ID, something went wrong (I don't know what?!) and I couldn't reset the password as I'd lost access to my registered email address.
I registered a new apple ID and all was well till I bought a new iPhone 5 back in September, the music from my new ID came across but the music from my old ID obviously didn't. I'm not very technically minded at all, so I ended up just using my old phone as an iPod basically.
My brother in law had a look at it for me a few weeks ago and somehow managed to change my old ID account details to a different email and password that I can now access, so all of my music I had downloaded on my old ID is now on my new phone along with the music I've downloaded on my new ID.
Now I have just bought a new laptop (windows), I downloaded iTunes, signed in on my newer ID, music synced all fine, but even when I sign in my old ID I can't get my music synced from my old ID?
I'm sorry, I know it's complicated, but if anyone can follow what I'm asking, and then knows how I can get all of my music, new and old, to back up to iTunes on my laptop, I'd be really grateful.
Thanks in advance.

Why can't I get some of my Yahoo newsfeed stories to open but yet on Internet Explorer they open just fine?

I've tried to read some of the stories sliding across my screen but some just come up a blank page, but yet on Internet Explorer, they open up just fine. I've got the latest version of Mozilla also.

Some added toolbar and anti-virus add-ons are known to cause
Firefox issues. '''Disable All of them.'''
Start '''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode Firefox in Safe Mode]''' {web Link} by holding down the '''<Shift><br> ''(Mac Options)'' ''' key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?

Why can't I get basic XPath to work in a Java 6 environment?

Why do I get the following exception when trying to invoke XPathFactory.newInstance() in a Java 6 runtime? The runtime is hosting an OSGi container that underlies an Atlassian JIRA 4.1.x environment.
[INFO] [talledLocalContainer] Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: XPathFactory#newInstance() failed to create an XPathFactory for the default object model: http://java.sun.com/jaxp/xpath/dom with the XPathFactoryConfigurationException: javax.xml.xpath.XPathFactoryConfigurationException: No XPathFactory implementation found for the object model: http://java.sun.com/jaxp/xpath/dom
[INFO] [talledLocalContainer] at javax.xml.xpath.XPathFactory.newInstance(XPathFactory.java:101)
How can an XPathFactory implementation not be found in a Java 6 environment? Is it because JIRA placed the following three JARs in my dependencies automatically (sucked in from an M2 REPO that is automatically created when setting up this plugin project):
* xalan-2.7.0.jar
* xercesImpl-2.9.1.jar
* xml-apis-1.3.04.jar
How can I work around this?
Thanks

Please see the following Atlassian Answers thread for how I was able to work around the problem:

So why can't I get snow leopard to work?

early 2008 mac pro.
32 GB ram test fine.
1.5 TB drive runs leopard-no problems.
have installed snow leopard on a blank drive and after about 4 hours, i get the black box shutdown error message. cloned existing drive into a new hitachi drive, shuts down after about 4 hours.
thought it might be the APC, replaced it, still shutting down. (got APC beeping on start up and overuse)
the only hardware remaining is video card: ATI Radeon HD 2600
is there some software conflict that can cause this issue? it shuts down regarless of multiple programs running or none.
have had the problem since i bought the snow leopard disk last summer, but snow leopard would not install on any of my existing hard drives, so replaced drives to accommodate the OS. running out of options.

Hi Sam,
Sorry about the problems you are having. You and I have the same system except the video card, therefore I can say with certainty that you should be able to run OS 10.6.4 at least.
I have not been able to get OS 10.6.5 to work at all though. The system hangs at the grey apple load screen for me every time. I have been in contact with Apple, who says no one else is having problems running this OS on our systems. They also advocate erasing and reformatting the hard drive and installing the OS. I am not certain how that would be different from installing it on a brand new hard drive, fresh out of the box, as wehave both tried without success.
I have one suggestion for you that I have not had time to try yet myself. Try removing all but one hard drive from the case (make sure the one remaining is in the first bay). Then try installing the OS and see if it works. This suggestion worked for me when I was trying, unsuccessfully, to install Boot Camp on a drive and it worked.
Maybe our model does not like certain system changes with multiple hard drives installed. Maybe I just trying to find a solution. Either way, best of luck! Hope you get things to work.

Why can't I get AirPlay mirroring to work?

When I double tap the home button and slide to the right, I can turn on AirPlay but it does not mirror to the tv. The software is updated on my ipad2 and on apple tv. My apps do AirPlay but the mirroring does not.

I just checked all the posts about this subject - the common denominator: no update to the appletv software. I have the same issue, my appletv is insisting to have an uptodate version (i have 4.3 just like the other guys ) - full mirroring requires 4.4, or so they say...
