Why ios Safari doesn't support Arabic @font-face fonts?

Recently, we decided to use some arabic webfonts from fonts.com in our projects, but we have had trouble with ios safari arabic webfont rendering. It's really ridiculous and amazing!!!
I checked different fonts with different format(ttf, svg) from different online font hosting services. (fonts.com, fontdeck.com, ...) but the Arabic characters didn't display with my fonts and it just displayed by default (I think it's Arial) font by ios safari!
I am sure that the fonts download but the characters doidn't show with my font typeface! because, interesting, I tested with other fonts (the glyphs English numbers in these fonts replace with arabic numbers) so when safari rendering the fonts it showed the numbers with correct fonts (webfonts) but it didn't show the arabic character!! :-)
I checked all those fonts in Mac and PC with Safari, Chrome, FF, IE, everyrhing is ok in both platform but in ios it has problem?!!
I want to know that, Is this problem/bug from ios Safari that resolve in ios6 or this is apple policy that don't show any other fonts?!!! (Think Different!!?? )
How can I tell the apple this problem, because with this bug or policy we cannot use the great fonts that designer designed with whole efforts. Is there any issue tracker or bug report from Apple that we can tell them this?

Internet plug in that Safari doesn't support

Ouestion. Brand new Mac OSX 10.4 Not able to open Internet programmes,
keep getting Safari doesn't support. Have tried ticking the Rossett box in Safari
with no results. I had no trouble with G4 laptop with Panther. Would appreciate some help , thanks sarsfield

Hi,
You need to install additional plug-ins for Safari to work with RealPlayer or Windows Media video streams.
Flip4Mac (for Windows Media playback)
Real Player (free download link in the top right hand corner)
Note that Flip4Mac is not yet a Universal Binary so you will need to continue running Safari in Rosetta mode for that to work correctly.
If you're still having problems after installing those, please post the website in question so we can take a closer look.
Good luck!

I actually published an interactive Arabic textbook with iBooks Author - there were a lot of annoying formatting bugs, and more of it was in english than Arabic, as it was for beginners. I submitted it to see how much interest there was for doing more in Arabic, but I haven't had much demand so far.

You installed the Conduit spyware. To remove it, triple-click the following line of text to select it:
~/Library/Application Support/Conduit
Copy (command-C) the text to the Clipboard. Then select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the Finder menu bar and paste (command-V) into the box that opens. A Finder window may open with a folder named "Conduit" selected. If so, delete the selected folder.
Select Go to Folder again and enter:
/Library
From the folder that opens, delete the following items, if they exist. You may be prompted for your login password.
Application Support/Conduit
InputManagers/CTLoader
LaunchAgents/com.conduit.loader.agent.plist
ScriptingAdditions/ct_scripting.osax
Close the folder. Now select Go to Folder one more time and enter:
/Applications/Toolbars
Delete that item. Close the Finder windows you opened. Log out and log back in.

I've upgraded to yosemite, and it tells me that safari doesn't support the community toolbar?? How do I get that feature back?

I've upgraded to yosemite, and safari tells me it doesn't support "community toolbar". How can I get this feature back?

The "community toolbar" is part of the adware Conduit. You don't want that feature back!

Safari doesn't support iFrames????

I went on the Black and Decker website to register a new tool and I was told I could not because my browser didn't recognize iFrames. I have no idea what iFrames are and why Safari doesn't work.
I did get on the site using FireFox.
Tried a second time with Safari and it opened the registration page, but the content was in a very narrow viewing window with scroll bars (unlike FireFox that filled the entire browser window).
Something is really funky.

Hi Derryl S,
I went on the Black and Decker website to register a new tool and I was told I could not because my browser didn't recognize iFrames.
Black and Decker is probably Safari unfriendly ...
Could you register the new tool via Fire Fox ...
If this is a yes, than have fun with the new tool.

My CS6 doesn't support Arabic in Mac

Hello..
I have purchased the Design standard CS6 with arabic enabled.. but when i installed it in my Mac..i notice that its not supporting arabic.
i am using OSX 10.8.3
When i tried to enable it in Photoshop and it became so slow and freeze sometimes.

Best Regards,

For Illustrator and/or Indesign you could use a plugin that enables bidirectional languages such as Arabic or Farsi.

Is location-tracking going to be fixed in iPhone 3G, latest iOS patch doesn't support my phone.

I have an iPhone 3G running 4.2.1 and I'd like to be able to patch the location-tracking without jailbreaking my phone. I noticed the latest patch that fixes the 4 and 3GS doesn't support my phone. Does anyone know (Apple?) if there will be a patch for my phone that is only 2 years old.

I don't believe there will be any further patches for the 3G. Us 3G owners seem to be out of luck.

Microsoft Office doesn't support Arabic

*I bought Microsoft Office for Mac  just because I am scared if I did a project*
*and it didn't work because of compatibility issues I would have to do it again*
*using windows vista .I use Arabic all the time so*
*typing documents in Arabic is important for me because its my first language*
*typing arabic would look like this*
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
*Click on the image to see how it looks like.*
*this is because Microsoft didnt put Arabic in Word and Excel*
*the only product that supports Arabic is Power Point*
*-So for all you Arabs that bought Microsoft Office*
*1.Wait for an update*
*2.Ask to return it to the Apple store for a refund*
*3.Buy iWork 2009 it supports Arabic*
*and it works nicely with Office 2007*
*4.Neo Office Supports Arabic so try using Microsoft*
*Office 2008 for English and NEO Office for Arabic*
*I hope this helps*
*TESTED ON MAC OS X 10.6.2 IMAC EARLY 2009 INTEL 2.66 MICROSOFT OFFICE 2008*

*3.Buy iWork 2009 it supports Arabic*
iWork support for Arabic is full of bugs and it is NOT recommended that this app be used for serious work in this script. Mellel is by far the best OS X app for Arabic. TextEdit, NeoOffice, OpenOffice, Nisus Writer, and various other apps also work OK.

MS Word for OS X has never supported RTL scripts or any Indic script for the last 8 years, and no one knows whether the next version will fix this or not.
