Why does webpage content appear distorted and wy do videos not operate?

When I open a webpage or try to start a video, they do not work properly. The appearance of webpages is distorted. Videos do not run.

Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems: <b>View > Zoom > Reset</b> (Ctrl+0 (zero); Cmd+0 on Mac)

  • Why does the content spill over and how do I position this under the menu and title?

    I was following this tutorial on how to add a scrolling image gallery to a Flash website.
    (http://www.republicofcode.com/tutorials/flash/xmlimagegallery/index.php)
    From what I understand from this tutorial, it is just a matter of copying the Actionscript code and pasting it onto the timelines then making modifications on the XML.
    (kindly see a screenshot of timeline layers I made and as to where I put the Actionscript code:
    http://i429.photobucket.com/albums/qq19/tsujzpie/imagegalleryproblem_01.jpg )
    I pasted the code onto the blank keyframe labeled "Gallery"...
    But all I get is this weird effect when I click on the button for the gallery...
    (kindly see a screenshot of it here: http://i429.photobucket.com/albums/qq19/tsujzpie/imagegalleryproblem_02.jpg )
    When you put a blank keyframe on a timeline, any content put in there is supposed to only be contained in that very frame, right? How come then that - whenever the gallery button is clicked on - the content from that section spills out onto the other sections even when I click on other button for the other areas?
    I just really couldn't think why this is happening - any reason why this is so?
    And how do I position the gallery right under the section header and menu bar?
    Here is its AS2 code, by the way:

                        mask_mc.lineTo(0,0);
                        container_mc.setMask(mask_mc);
              function scrolling() {
                        _root.onEnterFrame = function() {
                                  container_mc._y += Math.cos(((mask_mc._ymouse)/mask_mc._height)          *Math.PI)*15;
                                  if (container_mc._y>mask_mc._y) {
                                            container_mc._y = mask_mc._y;
                                  if (container_mc._y<(mask_mc._y-(container_mc._height-mask_mc.          _height))) {
                                            container_mc._y = mask_mc._y-(container_mc._height-          mask_mc._height);

    You should create a manually movieclip symbol with nothing in it and take a copy of it from the library and place it in the frame where you intend for the gallery to display.  Give it an instance name of "container_mc" and remove the following line from your callThumbs function
    _root.createEmptyMovieClip("container_mc",_root.getNextHigh estDepth());
    You probably need to do the same for the mask and the full images since they appear to also be created using dynamic mc's.

  • HT5129 Why does this message appear over and over again?

    This message appears everytime I try to do something in iPhoto and freezes everything else.  Can I stop it from appearing?

    Click on the More Info button, go to iPhoto's Accounts preference pane and delete the MobileMe account. Next to go the Sustem/MobileMe preference pane and log out of MMe.  That will stop those messages.

  • Why does my iMac appear many times in my network and labelled 1,2,3, etc

    why does my iMac appear many times in my network and labelled 1,2,3, etc

    Ok, I solved it.
    I followed this steps:
    1- Turn Off Wi-Fi from the Wireless menu item
    2- From the OS X Finder, hit Command+Shift+G and enter the following path:
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/
    3- Within this folder locate and select the following files:
    com.apple.airport.preferences.plist
    
com.apple.network.identification.plist
    com.apple.wifi.message-tracer.plist

    NetworkInterfaces.plist

    preferences.plist
    4- Move all of these files into a folder on your Desktop called ‘wifi backups’ or something similar – we’re backing these up just in case you break something but if you regularly backup your Mac you can just delete the files instead since you could restore from Time Machine if needed.
    5- Reboot the Mac
    6- Turn ON WI-Fi from the wireless network menu again

    After doing a software update for iPhoto, some of the photos in my library appear distorted and stretched. I have tried repairing the library, rebuliding and repairing the thumbnails but they are still distorted. Has anyone else experienced this and found a solution?

    What upgrade did you apply?  As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Import some photos and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank power On again in the normal way.] It is absolutely/appsolutely safe!

  • Why does 'Guest User' appear in a foreign language when logged in as guest?

    Why does 'Guest User' appear in a foreign language when logged in as guest? It's not a major problem but it would be nice to be able to fix it, and to understand how it happened.
    Everything else is in English (or set to English) as far as I can see, and my Macbook is only a couple of weeks old. All system updates have been performed and permissions have been repaired.
    It displays it in Finnish (Suomi) as 'Vierastilin käyttäjä' only when logged in, in the System Preferencess user list and apple menu (where you would normally select 'Log Out Guest User'). I cant find anyone else with the same problem online. I am in the UK, purchased the Macbook on the UK Apple Store online, and I have never been to Finland or selected anything to do with Finland or its language. Everything else is in English.
    I should add that 'Vierastilin' showed up instead of 'Guest User' on the OSX login screen on the first day I had the Macbook, but this seemed to fix itself somehow soon after.
    A couple of photos to illustrate the problem that still exists are attached.

    Thanks for the reply. I only have English - Primary but I guess I could add Finland and then delete it...
    Okay, tried that, lots of variations including deleting all other languages and only using Finnish, and then using only British English etc - when guest is in Finnish the whole lot becomes Finnish/Suomi (see attached photos to compare with the ones above) - then when you delete Finnish and go back to English, everything is Englisg apart from 'Vierastilin käyttäjä' as above.
    Any other ideas where it stores that info - is there a dodgy preference file somewhere which needs zapping?

    Look under system preferences on the mac at what is be controlled?  Look at Mail, Contacts, Calendars.  How many accounts are managing contacts?  Just the cloud? the cloud and gmail? or cloud, gmail, yahoo, and exchange?  If you have more than one contact account, then you will have different contact lists, if John Smith shows up in more than one of your contact lists, you will have multiple entries.
    Pick a contact list that is your master, (I use iCloud), only turn on contact syncing for it.  The same for your phone.  Spend some time on the iCloud webset (www.icloud.com) and work on your contact list there.  Clean it up, remove duplicates, etc...Changes will auto sync back to all your devices.  Life gets much simplier.
    Just remember, if you sync different contacts lists and a large number of people appear in your different lists, then they will appear as duplicates.

    I am having to recreate my itunes library and do not understand why prior album artwork appeared in my older library but not the new library?  Is there some way to scan itunes for missing album artwork?

    do you have a strongly recommended default "managed" library (the iPhoto preference to "copy imported items to the iPhoto library is in its checked state) or a referenced library - you have unchecked that option?
    It sounds like you have a referenced library and are now experiancing one of the very siginificant drawbacks of a referenced library and one of the many reasons they are strongly not recommended
    Also note that iPhoto '11 may use alises in the originals folder as part of the upgrade
    It is important that we understand exactly what you have and what is not sorking - what error messages you are getting
    You must NEVER make any changes of any sort to the structure of content of the iPhoto library - there are no user servicable parts in it  --  and you can not rebuild yoru librtary - only iPhoto ir iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ -  can rebuild a library unless you are a SQL programmer and understand the structure that iPhoto uses

    why does my screen turn blue and freeze every time i try to plug in my 'mini display to hdmi' cable into my thunderbolt port in order to use an external monitor? it only works if i turn the computer on with it already plugged in.

    Do you have gfxCardStatus installed?  Is your monitor set to "Integrated" or "Discrete".  You want it set to Discrete to drive the external HDMI display.
    Try resetting the PRAM and SMC

    Are you sure you have a good miniDisplayPort to HDMI cable?
    Do you have another HDMI display you can test against (your neighbor's HDMI capable TV).
    Do you have friend that can test the cable using their Mac and maybe their TV or a monitor that has HDMI input.
