Why does Yahoo News look terrible in Safari?

Yahoo News does not format at all in Safari and looks terrible.  This has been a problem for a very very long time.  I speak of Safari on the Mac.
Here is what it looks like.  Just awful.  Can this ever be fixed?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. First, disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard, mouse, monitor, and Ethernet, if applicable. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account that has the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, perhaps including wireless networking on certain Macs. If you usually connect to the Internet via WiFi, and it doesn’t work in safe mode, connect using an Ethernet cable. If you can’t do that, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and perform a safe login, as follows: Enter your credentials at the login screen, then hold down the shift key and click the “Log in” button. Keep holding the key until the menu bar appears. In this mode, your login items, among other things, won’t load.
In safe mode, test again. Same problem(s) now?
After testing, reboot (if you booted in safe mode) or log out/log in (if you performed a safe login) as usual.

  • Why does the web look TERRIBLE on my new Retina display?

    The new retina display is fantastic, but browsing the web looks horrible.  Can anything be done to improve the web browsing experience? 

    Most websites are designed to look good on low end computers, typically with a resolution of around 1024x768.
    Our retina macbooks have such a high resolution display that they basically show the flaws you would not normally see on a low resolution display.Text that is rendered using the mac os system fonts should look beautiful, but low resolution pictures and non-native text will look terrible on any website or application.
    There is no real fix for this issue, other than hoping the web in general starts moving to higher resoltuion content in the future. The same problem exists with the retina iPad, and in my opinion, things look even worse on the ipad since you tend to be zoomed in further while browsing the web.

  • Why does my gradient look terrible in Flash?

    I'm trying to recreate a nav bar mock up in Flash that I
    mocked in Photoshop. The background of my nav bar in Photoshop has
    a nice smooth gradient going from black to red to black, but when I
    pull out a rectangle in Flash and add a gradient to it, the
    gradient looks very choppy and doesn't have a smooth transition
    from one color level to the next. Is it just that Flash doesn't
    make as good of gradients as Photoshop or is there some kind of
    quality setting that I have to bump up in Flash? Thanks.

    what is the display settings for your monitor? sounds like
    you have it set to 16 bit color.

  • Why does a new episode of a already bought TV Show Season does not show up in my purchased section right away?

    Why does a new episode of a already bought TV show season does not show up in my purchased section right away? So I can watch it on my iPhone via Wi-Fi.

  • Why does my apply laptop shut off Safari when I try  to watch videos online? Also why can't I use Firefox with this(I used to)

    Why does ma older apple laptop cancel Safari when I a m watching videos online?  Also,I used to be able to run Firefox but now message states "can't use with this operating system"?

    You can't use Firefox, because your operating system, OS X, is a version 10.4 or earlier. 
    Firefox "upgraded" its Mac compatible version, so that it will only operate with OS 10.6 or later.
    Your Safari also might quit, because it too has an upgraded version with greater stability geared toward 10.4 and later.  Perhaps you are using system 10.3 or earlier.
    It is also possible that Safari quits, because the video sites you watch have changed to be compatible with newer browser versions with later Flash Player compatibility, like Adobe.
    It is difficult to find browser compatibility or stability for earlier than 10.4.
    What the above post is showing is in the drop down menu in the upper left of your screen.  Click on the blue Apple for its drop down menu. Click on the first in the list, About This Mac. That's where you'll see the version as shown in the previous post.
    If you upgraded your Safari, even that could be a problem, because it might not work as well with your older operating system.  I haven't tried the following link, but it offers the Safari versions that fit each system. You can try downloading the one that matches yours.  If that doesn't work, you can always upgrade again.

    Why does my email come up in Safari on the IPad 2?

    Hello Samlyoness
    Check to see what is enabled by default in Start New Conversations From in Settings > FaceTime and Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. You also could have had some start a conversation under your email as the Apple ID and so the conversation could be based on that.

  • Why does the new operating system not delete the moved files from their original location - it seems like an enormous waste of space, time and effort to clean up every file once you've moved it

    Why does the new operating system not delete the moved files from their original locations - it seems like an enormous waste of space, time and effort to clean up every file once you've moved it - also, when transferring large amounts of files it becomes a very large problem remembering which files were transferred and which not.

    You're going to need to be more specific, as I'm not quite sure I understand what you're talking about.
    If you're referring to copying from an external hard drive or flash drive, and you want to actually move files rather than copy them, you can hold down the option key to force it to do a "move" rather than a "copy." This is not new behavior, though... the Mac OS has worked this way as long as I can recall (and I've been using it since 1984).
    If you're having a problem with trying to move files from one place to another on a single drive causing them to be copied instead, that is likely because of some permissions issue preventing you from actually being able to move them.

  • Why does my 24fps look bad on my TV?

    I just got the Panasonic AG-HMC150. I have shot some footage at both 1080p24 and 720p24. I transcode the files to Pro Res in FCP and they look pretty good, I realize the panning isn't as smooth as 60i. I drag one of the files into the FCP timeline and let it automatically "optimize my settings" for the sequence. I have verified that it is 23.98fps and field dominance is none. I have tried selecting "share" and going straight to AVCHD from FCP, and also taking the original MTS file, and Apple Pro Res and dropping into Toast and trying that way. The footage just looks choppy, jiddery and unsmooth. I have seen enough movies in my life to know that when they pan, or have cars drive by, that movies 24fps looks a million times better. My Sony HDTV even accepts and displays 24fps, and when I press info on the TV remote when watching one of these AVCHD discs it in fact says 1080 (or 720) 24p. It just looks bad. Even taking the HDMI output from the camera and hooking up to the TV and playing from the camera looks lousy.
    What am I doing wrong? I know a ton of post work goes into Hollywood movies, but why does their 24fps look nice and smooth and mine looks horrible? Do I need to render with pulldown in FCP or something. I can't figure it out. Any advice, suggestions?

    I transcode through FCP to apple pro res, the files shows up as 1920x1080 24fps. Field dominance is none. I edit the video and then export as quicktime movie using current settings. The Pro Res file says 23.98 when played in quicktime so I know that's good. I simply then drop the file into Toast (10.0.4) and burn blu-ray disc, selecting DVD as the media. I noticed too I need to change the field dominance under the encoding tab in Toast to progressive, as automatic doesn't work. It only burns the top half of the image. Regardless, when I make these discs and play them on PS3, my TV's info says 1080/24p. Maybe my eyes aren't use to seeing 24fps. Does it sound like I am doing anything wrong in my workflow/encoding process.
    Again, good tip on the shutter speed Jerry.

  • Why does the new Itunes freeze/do nothing when i click on my Ipod touch icon ?

    Why does the new Itunes freeze when i click on my Ipod touch icon to manage my content? All buttones, video, tv, info, music, they all do nothing. i was only able to sync by bringing up the old sidebar. Is this a software glitch, or am i missing a step? I just spent two days reorganizing and labeling all my music for the new itunes, and had to restore my ipod so i could upload my new library. i know what is supposed to come up when you click on the music or info tabs, but nothing happens, only the eject button works. whats going on?

    The screen is telling you to connect the iPod to your computer with iTunes with the USB connector.  iTunes should open and give you instructions as to what to do.  Whatyou need to need to do is to restore the iPod via iTunes.

  • Why does the new version not have back-up disc in the library file? And how do I fix it?

    Why does the new version of i-tunes not have back-up to disc in the library file? And how do I fix it?

    Fast backup for iTunes library  (Windows)
    Grab SyncToy  2.1, a free tool from MS. This can be used to copy your entire iTunes library (& other important data folders) onto another hard drive or network share. You can then use SyncToy periodically to synchronise or echo your library to the backup. A preview will show which files need to be updated giving you a chance to spot unexpected changes and during the run only the new or updated files will be copied saving lots of time.
    If your media is all organised below the main iTunes folder then you should also be able to open the backup library on any system running the same version of iTunes, regardless of the drive letter or path it appears on.
    Step-by-step guide to using SyncToy.

  • Why does a new desktop creation unexpectedly initiate with a background differing from the originating desktop? How can I control or eliminate this behavior?

    Why does a new desktop creation unexpectedly initiate with a background differing from the originating desktop? How can I control or eliminate this behavior?

    CT, I suspect that I either mistated the question or don't understand how to set the default back ground.  In any case, with the background that I have set in system settings, and this is the background to which my sessions consistantly boot, new desktops come up for the second or up to the third background with this initially set background. Then in the third or fourth desktop creation (I seldom go beyond four), the background for the new desktop, is one that I was using one or two months ago...
