Won't open webmail links, only black screens on YouTube, nothing but white screen on AARP games, often just a list of links show up on the left side and nothing else.

This problems have happened ever since downloading 3.6.14. I downloaded the newest version of Shockwave Flash. I've disabled add-ons one at a time. Everything works in Safari, but I can't access email; trying to open links in other windows opens a blank page; no videos show up on YouTube or similar links. I trashed and downloaded Firefox again, but I'm still having the same problems.

A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

Iphoto causes half my screen to be reversed (screen split with the right side half now on the left side) and computer freezes. Any suggestions about a fix?

iphoto causes half my screen to be reversed (screen split with the right side half now on the left side and the left hand side on the right.) and screen gets multiple blurry copies. Also the computer freezes. Any suggestions about a fix? Can I delete iphoto and reinstall? If so, will I lose my photos?

Aperture 3 screen view. I have the adjustments, etc. on the left side and the picture on the far right side. The middle of screen is black. I need to get the picture back in the center of screen

I have the adjustments, etc. on the left side of the screen. The picture is on the far right side of the screen. The middle of the screen is all black.How do I get the picture back in the middle of the acreen. I believe I must have hit a button that moved the picture to the far right.

On the Mac......
Open up Macintosh HD > Applicatons > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click on the Time Capsule icon, then click Edit in the small window that appears
Click the Network tab at the top of the next window
Change the setting for Router Mode from the current DHCP and NAT to read Off (Bridge Mode), then click Update at the lower right of the window, and wait a full minute for the Time Capsule to restart to a green light.
Then.....very important
Power off the Time Capsule and your Arris modem/router for a few minutes
Start up the Arris first, and let it run a few minutes by itself
Start up the Time Capsule next the same way
Your network will now be correct, and your printing capabilities will improve.
If Time Machine backups do not occur now, post back and we will tackle that next.

Tell me how to make Ctrl-B open the bookmarks panel on the left side and NOT open Bing.

For years the Bookmarks panel on the left side would open when I press Ctrl-B. Now it opens Bing. How can I fix this?

Does the sidebar open correctly if you use View > Sidebar?
*Press the F10 key or tap the Alt key to bring up the hidden Menu bar.
There aren't any extensions listed in the System Details List that could cause this, so I'm not sure why this would happen.

Are you sure that you aren't opening a specific bookmark in the sidebar?
Opening in the sidebar is the default for bookmarks that are created via a link or button on a website. 
You can check the properties of a bookmark via the right-click context menu in the sidebar (Ctrl+B; Command+B on Mac). 
In the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks) you can click the More button in the Details pane at the bottom right.
Make sure that "Load this bookmark in the sidebar" is not selected.

My ipad used to show up on the left side of my screen it would be named by my device, I could sync and control apps, movies, music etc. that control is gone. Now I can't sync or manage.

Now a days the device shows up on the top and is listed as devices, IPad and Iphone but I have no control or syncing control. Need help

How do I stop the iMessage conversation from automatically showing when I go into the I message center? I only want the contacts to show down the left side and nothing on the right until I select a conversation to view.

HOW DO I STOP THE WHOLE IMESSAGE CONVERSATION FROM AUTOMATICALLY SHOWING WHEN I GO INTO IMESSAGE? I only want the contact bar on the left to show and not the whole conversation, until I pick one to see.

You can't. You can sign out of messages and turn it off, but you can't do what you would like to do. You can send feedback to Apple.

I some how moved all my icons from the bottom of the screen to the left side and can't get them back, cn anybody help?

can anybody help?

Click the Apple icon on the top left of the screen and move the cursor to Dock. On the list that appears you will be able to check "Position on Bottom".

My Facebook has lost its CSS, it seems. The homepage - and all others - are now lists of subsections in Times down the left side of the screen.

Similarly, on sites where Facebook has a Link, or Like, box such as on newspaper site, the contents of the box are in plain Times with no formatting.

IMovie iDVD cuts off left side and bottom of pics/vids of TV screen

For as long as i have had iMovie, I have always had this problem where the left side and bottom of the pictures and videos are cut off and cannot be seen on the TV screen. If there is anyone out there who knows something about this, has an answer, or even a suggestion, it would be greatly appreciated if I heard back from you. I have a Mac OSX 10.0 and have iLife 06 if that helps. Thanks a lot.
Mike.

Hello Mike,
a bit of "cropping" is normal - it's called overscan - but you say that the it occurs only at the bottom and left side .... are you sure it doesn't affect the whole picture? If I'm wrong post back with some more details about your footage and workflow.
Also: does this only ocurr on DVD or also if you play from iMovie through to camera?
The TV Safe Area:
Anything within the outer 5% of your frame is going to disappear when viewed on a TV ( e.g. Rolling Credits). Inside this 5% is known as the Action Safe area and is produced by a TV behaviour called overscan. Anything within the outer 10% of your image area is not displayed as clearly as the part of the image within that border. The "sharp" 80% of your TV monitor is known as the TV Safe area.
NOTE: "TV Safe" only applies to video shown on a TV set. On a computer monitor, this can be pretty much ignored
hope this helps

The left side of the screen cannot be seen

My firefox screen is not showing its left side. The problem is that it is unusually wider on the right side and this has cut off the left side, and now I cannot see most of the information on the screen.

My MacBook Air won't start up, only black screen no logo

I've had my MacBook Air since Christmas 2014. I have not spilt anything on it, I have not dropped it and the charger isn't broken.
Yesterday my computer wouldn't turn on, it was working the day before so I don't know why this was happening. When I turn on I mean:
Press the turn on key
I hear the chime for it to turn on
then all of a sudden
no logo only black screen and then nothing after it.
I really don't want to reset it because it has all my school work on it and very important pictures on it.
Is there anyway we can fix it? I've looked on this website many times and others and nothing has really helped.
If you have anything new please reply ASAP.
I need this fixed within 2 weeks.
Thank you.

Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility and press the Continue button. After Disk Utility loads select the Macintosh HD entry from the the left side list. Click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If Disk Utility reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit Disk Utility and return to the main menu.
Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
Alternatively, see:
Reinstall OS X Without Erasing the Drive
Choose the version you have installed now:
OS X Yosemite- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

I see only black screen windows when upload pdf documents in safari

Hi. I see only black screen windows when upload pdf documents in Safari. Also in old version of Safari, and in old System. In some windows, i can save the document, only now i can see this, open from pdf reader. Thank for some info.

Back up all data.
In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
I've seen an unconfirmed report that the "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you might need to remove it as well, if applicable.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

My Macbook pro often won't start up since I installed Lion, and I have to shut it down using power button. My desktop icons don't appear and the dock won't open. I only have the little circle of color spinning endlessly. What's wrong now!

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. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with 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).
Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
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.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Won't open webmail links, only black screens on YouTube, nothing but white screen on AARP games, often just a list of links show up on the left side and nothing else.
