Why do I have "broken image" icons after uploading a file with safari 7.0

I have a wesite where I can upload images. We show the directory of uploaded files with an icon that is a thumbnail of the image. This is working fine with all versions of safari except 7.0.
All users with 7.0 see the small blue icon with a "?" in place of the thumbnail (png and jpg). When the full image is displayed it look fine.
The wierd thing is that if I go to Chrome and view my directory and then go back to safari 7.0 and refresh, all thumbnails appear correctly.
I suspect there is a bug in Safari 7.0. Anyone else have this problem?

Has the 1 year limited hardware warranty expired? Apple would only charge to perform a repair or a replacement. If iOS 7.0.3 caused the issue then that would be a software issue, not hardware. Take it into the Genius Bar because the technicians are the only people that will be able to determine the cause. But if the iPhone needs to be replaced and it is not covered then Apple are in the right.

Hi Roger
Thank you for your reply.
My original feed is: http://casa-egypt.com/feed/
However, because I modified the feed http://feeds.feedburner.com/imananddinasbroadcast and nothing changed, I redirected it to another feed and then I deleted this feed.
Is there any way to change the feed in itunes? The only feed I have now is http://feeds.feedburner.com/CasaEgyptStation
I tried to restore the feed http://feeds.feedburner.com/imananddinasbroadcast but feedburner refused.
I know that I missed things up but I still have hope in working things out.
Thanks is advance.

Why should I have to PAY Apple Support to help me with an issue that the iO6 caused to begin with????

Would somebody please explain to me why I should have to PAY Apple Support to help me with an issue that THEY caused to begin with??? I still cannot connect to WiFi with my iPhone since the upgrade yesterday. Will they pay for my data overages??? I have tried every suggestion that has been on the Apple Forums...and none of them work. Then when I tried contacting Apple..I found out I have to PAY for their help. Are they kidding me??

But it's Apple's fault I'm having a problem...not mine. It's not right.

Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. 
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' 
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. 
''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.

With Lion I had 2 user accounts. Why do I have three user accounts after upgrading to Mountain Lion?

I had consistenlty had a master admin user account for myself under Lion, plus the "Guest" account recommended and created by Lion. After upgrading to Mountain Lion, I now have the same 2 accounts, plus a new one called "Other." Why do I have that? Why was it created? How do I get rid of it if it is not needed?

I meant to include this info from the System Profile:

Why do I have two Bookmarks tabs, one in the Menu Bar one in the Bookmarks Toolbar?

I recently upgraded to FireFox 9.01 on my MacBook running 10.6.8. I now have two Bookmark tabs. One in the menu bar where it has always been and a new one in the Bookmarks Toolbar. The one in the toolbar has all of the custom icons for the sites that I visit but the menu bar Bookmark tab just has the generic icons. Can I display only one Bookmark tab, preferably in the menu bar where it has always been with all of the custom site icons?
Firefox also seems very slow to load my homepage, which is Yahoo, or some of my other pages. Thanks.

See this about the missing icons in the Bookmarks menu.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/latest-firefox-issues#os=mac&browser=fx9
If you open the Customize window (View > Toolbars > Customize) then you should see that Bookmarks Menu button move to the Navigation Toolbar. 
You can drag that button in the toolbar palette to remove it from the Bookmarks Toolbar.

Why do I have to login twice after sleep mode?

Until recently I have been able to login one time with a password to get to my desktop. Now I have to login twice and I have no idea why. I am running Yosemite, whatever the newest version is. I'm not too tech savvy, but have checked every setting I can think of to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.

Just to be clear, it's not normal to have to log in twice when FV is on. If you want to try to solve that problem, ask for instructions.

Why do I have less updated software after a repair?

About a week ago, I spilled soup on my computer, so I took it to the Apple store and they repaired it, but they had to replace everything inside it so it's like I have a new computer now. Not only does my computer feel much heavier than it did before, I have less updated software. Before, I had Lion (10.7.3) and now with this new stuff they repaired it with, I have Snow Leopard (10.6.8). Why did they do this, and is there any way I can get Lion back without having to pay for it? I'm extremely angry and I don't have money to just throw around spending on Apple's mistakes!

Are you also extremely angry at yourself, for slopping soup into your computer? If not, why not? You must have thrown quite a lot of money at that problem, which was no one's fault but your own.
Mistakes happen. If you hadn't made one first, Apple wouldn't have had a chance to make one afterward. Go back to the store and keep your anger to yourself. Explain clamly and politely that you'd like them to reinstall Lion, which was on it when you took it in. If you conduct yourself reasonably, I expect they'll oblige you.
As for the machine being heavier, that simply isn't true. There's nothing Apple could have put in it that would be any heavier than what was taken out. You're imagining the difference.

Why do I have to refresh tabs every time I do a search with Firefox 7.01?

Whenever I try to open a new item from a Google search, the new tab appears with the "busy" circle icon, but nothing appears on the screen until I do a "tab refresh." Sometimes I have to do this twice before the site will finally appear.

Why do I have to buy Imovie after update (Marvericks)?

Hey guys! I have a macbook pro retina, and since I bought the macbook I had the opportunity to get Imovie for free from App store, but when I recently updated my Mac to Marvericks, I now have to buy Imovie. Am I the only one having this problem? Please Help!

The free upgrade for iLife is for the most recent version of iLife prior to the Mavericks version. If you have an older version, then I believe that it is a paid upgrade.

Why do i have a 'Recovery HD' after upgrading to lion?

I just realised, while i was doing a test of my machine using techtools delux, that it was scanning my 'Recovery HD', why is this so?

Hi,
The reasons are explained here. (ArsTechnica review of Lion).

Why do I have to sign in after screen lock and/or sleep?

I use Skype, YIM, Facebook, etc., and I want to stay signed in all the time. Whenever my ipod is awakened from sleep or brought out of screen lock, everything is signed out and has to sign back in. I miss calls and messages this way. I appreciate the screen lock and wish to keep it operating, so how can I keep everything signed in after the screen locks?

You need to change the settings in each app. I don't use YIM, but Skype and Facebook I do use.
Under Settings >> Skype, make sure "Sign In Automatically" is on, "Go Offline" is set to never, and notifications are active. The "Don't Auto-Lock" only applies to calls made.
Under Settings >> Facebook, tap "Push Notifications" and make sure the notifications you want to be notified about are set to "On".
Under Settings >> Notifications, make sure they are on, and the types of alerts are on (Badges, Alerts, and/or Sounds).
Under Settings >> General >> Auto-Lock, make sure it is set to "Never".
For some reason, there are a couple of things that still won't happen correctly: Facebook will place a badge for activity, but it still tends to take minutes (or may NEVER) update your page to show you what occurred (I often get Notifications on wall posts that never show in the notification tray). Skype WON'T notify you of a call unless you are actively on the iPod, but you can receive messages, so I would tell whoever calls you to message you first to make sure you are actively able to receive the call (since any chat messages will alert you).

I have problems restoring tabs and saving pin apps with Firefox 5 on Mac OS X version 10.6.7

I bought a Macbook Pro a few months ago and since installing Mozilla Firefox on my system, I have never been able to restore previous sessions after closing Firefox. I currently use Firefox 5 and I've tried pinning open tabs as apps tabs but those too disappear when I restart Firefox.
I use a few add-ons including DownThemAll, Force-TLS, Rikaichan and Rikaichan's Japanese-English Dictionary File.

App (pinned) tabs and Tab Groups (Panorama) are stored as part of the session data in the file sessionstore.js in the Firefox profile folder.
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Session_Restore
Make sure that you do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the "Browsing History" when Firefox is closed because that prevails and prevents Firefox from opening tabs from the previous session.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Clear+Recent+History
It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
* Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js
If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well. 
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and all open tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

Why am I getting a ghost grid after doing a crop WITH A ROTATION? Ps CC 2014

After using the crop tool (C) WITH A ROTATION using Ps CC 2014 (2014.2.1 Release; 20141014.r.257 x64), I can see a hazy orthogonal grid of varying line widths in the darker areas of the image(s). It appears to be about the same size as the alignment grid that appears during the crop function. It seems the grid somehow is including itself when the rotation algorithm is executed. This does not happen if there is no rotation function being used.
This phenomena does not happen at all on Ps CS6 Extended.
I am using Windows 7 (64-bit) on a Samsung Series-7 Gamer laptop (i7-3610QM CPU @ 2.23GHz; NVIDIA GeForce 675M GPU w/ 3GB video RAM; 16GB system RAM)

Sorry to be so long in replying.
That may have been the problem. I can't recreate the
problem today. I know I'm not crazy because I showed the guy I was working
with the failure mode and it was consistent and repeatable for him. Perhaps
restarting the machine reset whatever was screwy in the video driver / GPU.
If I see it again, I will be sure to keep an example.
It was a lot of work with the spot healing brush I didn't need to do!
Thanks for your response.
Bob
