Wikipedia and some myspace pages "all greek" in safari!

Hi everyone,
anyone know how i can fix a possible corruption in safari? All wikipedia pages in whatever language are coming through in greek lettering, and some my space pages i've noticed are looking greek too. I've opened the same pages in firefox and they are fine and the same pages on my home computer open fine in safari too!
Any ideas on how to remove the corruption??
thanks

Have a look at this article.

It could be you need to clean up your font cache (example 1)
or you have SOME kind of Phonetics font on there, conflicting.
If your problem looks different than any of the examples,
maybe you could post a screen shot here.

When i click a link inside clickbank and some other pages it opens in a window with no page link-just blank-i have set options to open in a new tab.

in some web pages this opens a new window when i click the link-the new window has no address and is blank.i have marked my uptions for a new tab to open instead of a window.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Iolo System Mechanic app failed and has caused FF not to act right - not loading buttons and some web pages to be a list instead of what the UI should look like.... I have reinstalled but still have the problem and not sure what to do

Basically certain web pages are not loading proper since app Iolo System Mechanic failed. I have reinstalled FF but still not loading right. Buttons are not showing and some pages are in a list instead of the GUI view.

I installed and uninstalled Firefox several times - finaly after I selected NOT to have Firefox as the default browser, the installation worked and pages loads correctly now! I made Firefox the default browser after the successful installation!

Wifi not working with iTunes, apps store and some, but not all Internet sites....why???

Yesterday I noticed while browsing Internet that some sites would not open and that some games I regularly play would not open. I also found that I could not open either the apps store or iTunes. Everything seemed to be working the day before and I have not recently upgraded ios (been on version 6.1.3 for a while) or changed any settings on my iPad (2). With Internet research today I found suggestion that if I switched to 3G I would be able to access these apps and,sure enough, under 3G connection everything works fine. Some other forums suggest changing wifi router settings to fix the issue ....I have not tried this as I wouldn't like to mess with my router and end up effecting other peripherals/pc's connected to it that are working fine....especially when I am not terribly IT savvy when it comes to hardware settings. But as I haven't changed anything on my ipad why would my wifi suddenly stop connecting to some apps on my iPad, but not all??? Interestingly I can access many Internet sites (forums) with wifi connection but not the apple forum! To get to anything apple related I have to switch back to 3G ....that includes checking the iOS version I am on via settings!
I also mention that I have done all the other suggested fixes found on various forums, such as rebooting iPad, renewing wifi lease, clearing cookies, closing all apps etc etc, to no avail. Seems the only suggested fix I have not tried is mucking around with my router which I am very hesitant to do given the **** I went through with my telco when my home Internet connection suddenly stopped working last year. Took me weeks of phone calls to get my internet connection back and being forced by the telco to a more expensive plan, hence very reluctant to start mucking around with that side of things, but why should I need to when it does seem to be working ok with other devices in the home?
I have started this as new discussion as, even though I am not terribly IT savvy, I cant see how this could be related to the wifi issues that many on the newer devices (iPhone 5 and iPad mini etc) are reporting as I haven't recently upgraded anything on my ipad and all was working perfectly up until yesterday.
Any other suggestions on how to get wifi working correctly again on iPad or do I really have to risk the working of every other device in my home and chase it from modem/router side?

Hi there,
You mentioned that you have tried a few troubleshooting steps already, but you may want to take a look at the article below, specifically the section titled "If you are unable to access the Internet while connected to a Wi-Fi network"

Blank index.jsp and some jsf pages within WebContent folder

Hi dear all,
I have a problem with a blank index.jsp forwarding to a jsf file i.e. <jsp:forward page="/pages/xxx.jsf" />
I have tested with index.html (is showing with right contents), index.jsp (page loaded but blank), index.jsf (page loaded but blank).
Web Server details : Tomcat 6.0.18 running on Linux.
Folder structure is

But direct access to jsf files within pages directory is showing, which is not desirable.
Can someone advise me why?
Many thanks and have a good day,

On a MAC with OS 10 how do I pinch, tap to make larger, and some other gestures that work on Safari but not FireFox

I can not do all the gestures when I am in FireFox. Example Pinch to increase or decrease size of window. Tap with two fingers to increase the size of window. The other gestures like scrolling, swiping etc work.

Hello Shona37a, if you have the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Places.sqlite places.sqlite] file probably you are ok. the places.sqlite file can be edit with SQLite Manager or a specialized editor BUT you can move it to a [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles#os=mac&browser=fx17 new profile], see informatinos in the above link.
also think if you must go to [http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/ TenFourFox] for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 , it is more secure from your 3.6.18 that is unsupported.

I've had my iPhone 5 for almost a year now, it will randomly power down and some of my apps like my safari will either not load or load very slowly. How do I fix this?

I've been having this issue for a few days and I don't know wether or not I should just get a new phone or if i can fix it

Hello there, babydoll1022.
The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great steps for troubleshooting the unexpected power off issue you're describing:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
Particularly:
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Additionally, this article on multitasking offers some good information and steps for troubleshooting the issues with applications:

If an app doesn't respond to your input, or doesn't perform as expected, do the following, testing after each step:
Check for app updates.
Force the app to close.
Restart your device.
Update your iOS device.

After installing Firefox and some of its added software, NO SAFARI app.

After installing and using Firefox and download some optional additions, including a password generator and flash suppressor, as well as a couple more recommended, I no long see my original desktop and cannot bring up Safari. Additionally, my Internet Connection at home stopped working. The latter could be some other problem, but the IDP Cox could not solve the problem over the phone and wont be to my house for three days. Now I am in a Library where Firefox worked, but Safari did not.
The ICON for Safair is not on the Dock and under applications it does not look right. When I use that one anyway, I get an error message that some essential parts are missing and I have to reinstall Safari. That seems to be drastic.
If this was Windows I guess that I might try to go back in time using the application that allows you to go far enough back by date to find a time when the computer worked.
What do I do in Apple? Obviously, I am a newer user and also fiddle around too much, I feel.
Any help will be appreciated. I guess I will have to come back to the library or to a coffee shop to read it on Firefox

Well, installing Firefox or any add-ons would certainly not cause this, since they are completely unrelated to system-level changes. You had to have done something to cause this, so I'm guessing that you fiddled with some things without know what you were doing or the ramifications of doing it.
For your information, that is a bad idea. Apple does quite a bit to hide the underpinnings of the OS from users, since there are over 168,000 files on the Mac, most of which you cannot see. But that doesn't stop people from deleting things randomly or clicking on the wrong file and hosing their system. You should try to stifle that urge to fiddle around unless you know exactly what you're doing, why, and what could happen if it doesn't work.
So, bottom line is that you'll have to reinstall Safari, and it does get a bit involved.
1. Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove the receipt "Safarixxx.pkg", where xxx is any series of numbers following the word Safari.
2. Get your Mac OS X install disc and insert it into the drive. Browse the contents to the Optional Installs folder, then find the Safari installer inside of that. Double-click on the Safari package to start the installation process. If it gives you an error message, post back with exactly what it says.
If it finishes the installation, quit the installer and go to the Apple menu on the top left of your screen and select Software Update; it should tell you that there's a newer version of Safari and ask if you want to install it -- say yes to that.
When it's done, quit Software Update, go to HD/Applications and look for the Safari icon; click and drag the icon to the Dock, then try to launch Safari. If that works, eject your Mac OS X install disc and you should be set. Just don't fiddle around.

My IPhone 4s ringer, text, and some apps won't sound

Here's the details.
I have an IPhone 4s, and I use Pinger EX, a VoIP app. My ringer, my text sound, Facebook notification sound, and some but not all app notification sounds are silent. I don't recall making any setting changes before this happened. I have tried restarting my phone, resetting the settings, uninstalling and reinstalling the Pinger app. No, my toggle switch isn't on mute. The "Do Not Disturb" option is off. I have gone through every setting I can find and can't for the life of me find the problem. I have it set to vibrate on ring so that it at least will vibrate to notify me. Again, it's not on silent. I can go into settings and test, and hear, the ringtone. For the text tone and others, I can only get it to vibrate.
Is this some strange and secret sticky key that I'm unaware of?

IT IS SOLVED!!!!!!

hello there! i am using Adobe acrobat pro DC and using windows 8.1. Recently I was trying to convert a web page (includes Greek letters) into PDF. I noticed that the conversion is not accurate, some words are missing, some are misplaced. Especially Greek words are not accurately converted or even not converted. Please give me some suggestions to improve this issue. Regards

Hey quantum info,
Thank you for posting at Adobe forums. We would love to help you out.
Could you please let me know if you have tried converting other web pages to PDF and checked if the same issue persists.
How have you been trying to convert the web page to PDF?
Are you trying to convert to PDF directly via browsers or using "File > Create > PDF from Web Page" option in Acrobat.
Let me know more so that I can analyze where actually the issue persists.
Hope to hear from you.

Anubha

Did you do a font check in Font Book?
Be aware that a default encoding of UTF-16 as shows in your screenshot may lead to problems.<br />
The default is Western (ISO-8859-1) and you should change the default encoding to that setting unless you have changed that deliberately to UTF-16 for specific web pages, but even in that case it is better to make the change via View > Character Encoding or set Auto-Detect to Universal or UTF-16.

I have the following problem: I try to open Google, Youtube or some other pages and I can't use them. All I get is the "Connection has been reset" message. Help?

The only way I'm able to use Google and YouTube is by using HTTPS, but the thing is that by using HTTPS, I can only use SSL Google, which lacks Images and several other useful features.
As for YouTube, it's perfectly normal.
Wikis load like snails, and some don't even load at all. Not even with the HTTPS. Also, when I try to update Java, it tells me that my Internet Connection Settings are wrong. Not sure if that's the problem, though.
If it's any plugin I'm missing, I'll gladly install it (just don't trick me into viruses, please).
I've already cleaned my cookies (15 times, no kidding), checked the firewall, etc.
I haven't checked my Internet Settings because I don't want to screw things more than they already are. But I doubt that's the problem.
I checked for viruses, spyware, and the like, but my anti-virus software (ESET) detected nothing.
I've also went to the Network "Repair" in "My Computer" and restarted my PC twice.
I really need things back to normal, so any help would be really appreciated.
Thanks.
