Why can't we change fonts anymore?

Why is Apple taking away our abilty to change the default font in Safari?  I have better looking fonts I can use.  This sort of stuff should be a configurable option.  I'm the user.  I know what I want best.
Until Apple comes back to their senses, are there any plug-ins we can install that let us configure Fonts?  If not, I'm probably switching to Firefox or Chrome asap.

You can. Go to the "Advanced" tab of the Preferences window, and under "Style Sheet" select a file that has the font spec you want in it. All you need is for the file to have something small in it, like this:
body {
          font:  12px "Lucida Grande";

  • Why can't I change the transparent color and font color in IOS 7?

    Who thought all this WHITE AND TRANSPARENT color looks appealing?
    Why can't I change the color of the folders and text?
    I already tried inverting the colors and then it washes out the photos I use as my wallpaper.
    I love everything, so far, except this transparent issue.

    That's very sad those colors can't be changed. They really look ugly.
    Thanks for responding.

  • Why can't I open PDFs anymore and Adobe Reader won't install.

    Why can't I open PDFs anymore and Adobe Reader won't install? This happens only in Safari. I have tried changing my security preferences but it doesn't help.

    missyzz,
    which version of OS X is installed on your Mac, and which version of Adobe Reader do you have installed? Did you ensure that all of your browsers were not running when you’d installed Adobe Reader?
    To use Preview to open PDFs, download the PDFs to your Mac, and then use Preview to open the PDFs locally. Since you can open PDFs in Firefox, it sounds like you don’t need the Preview workaround.

  • Why can't I change my apple id / email address associated with my apple id ?

    My apple id is associated with a gmail address.
    I wan't to change it to something else.
    So I went to: appleid.apple.com ---> Change apple id ---> Typed in new email address (everything shows green) ---> Hit Save.-->Edit box disappears as if everything went ok ----> But the box showing my apple id, still shows the gmail address!
    It still shows my gmail address!! Doesn't send any verification email or anything! No matter what I do, it doesn't let me change it from my gmail address!
    It let me change my password though, and also let me change my rescue email address.

  • Why can I not copy paste anymore in Dreamweaver CC?

    Help! Why can I not copy paste anymore in Dreamweaver CC? It was working fine a week ago, did not install or delete anything in this time, the options from the pull down menu are ghosted, ctrl+c ctrl+v doesnt work. I could use paste special from the pull down menu and did.  Paste special worked once, now is ghosted too.

    Try renaming the Configuration folder to Configuration-backup.
    The folder can be found as in http://www.dmxzone.com/go/16740/clearing-dreamweaver-s-cache/

  • Why can't I change to size of my test in emails now? CanI go back to previous email version. This one is horrible!!!

    Why can't I change to size of my test in emails now? CanI go back to previous email version. This one is horrible. On my last update I was able to easilt find old emails now they disappear!!!! WTF?
    This version cannot change the text size Do I have to go back to IE?

    Which email site do you use?
    And some general advice:
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • HT201210 Why can't I change the location of my device backups?

    Why can't I change the location of my device backups?
    iTunes seems to force me to use my c:\ drive as the destination for all backups. 
    Background: I have set up my c:\ drive only for programs - all data is stored on separate drives - including my iTunes library and all media. So, I can't skinny down the c:\ drive any more without uninstalling programs.
    The issue is that my 10,000 rpm, 280 GB - C:\ drive is fast but small and is now FULL after I got about 1/2 way through a 128 GB backup of my ipad.  (Yes, all movies have been deleted off of the iPad to minimize the size of the backup.)
    I deleted the partial iPad backup, moved all the Mobile Applications to another drive, emptied the recycle bin and tried again with my much smaller iPhone.  You guessed it: the io7 update hung and both of my devices are now paper weights.
    Which leaves me f*cked, anyone know how I can un-f myself?

    iTunes movies are not part of an iDevice backup.
    Videos & photos you take with the camera (in the Camera roll) are part of the backup but those should be sync'd to the computer and removed from the camera roll.

    why can't I change colors of objects?

    Thanks KT.  I did mean the Fill color, but my real issue is that changing the fill color in the inspector doesn't change the color of the selected object.  In tis case, I was trying to chnage the fill color from pale blue to the more ingense blue:

  • Why can't I change qty of Transfer Order

    hi,guys
    I had allow partially delivery goods in order, but when I created Transfer Order from delivery order, I found that I can not change pick qty in transfer order, I used LT03 to create transfer order, so, why can't I change pick qty in transfer order, it is gery!!!

    Hi there,
    If you want to process only a partial quantity, then you have to create delivery only for a partial quantity.
    In a transfer order TO you have to pick the entire delivery quantity. Partial picking is not allowed in TO. Quantity field is blank in TO.
    For eg if you have 100 items in a sales order, but you want to process only 50 now. So create a delivery for 50 items & process TO. If you create delivery for 100 items, do picking in TO for all the 100 items. Just processing TO for 50 items is not permitted. This means that all quantities in delivery has to be picked to PGI.

    =========================================================
    However, I encountered the following exception when running at the highlighted statement:
    ======================================================
    SQLException: java.sql.SQLException: Transaction manager errors. statement not allowed in XA Session.
    ======================================================
    To my surprise, the isolation level TRANSACTION_SERIALIZABLE is supported from the database vendor. So why can't I change the transaction isolation level?

    You can change the setting, you may need to click the lock at the bottom of the preference pane. Be careful what you download and install, Gatekeeper is there to help you. OS X: About Gatekeeper - Apple Support
