Wrong Display in Browsers other than safari

Hi,
I am using Aperture 3.3.1 to generate simple albums to work on our server. So long as I use Safari to view the pages all is well, but using, IE, Opera or firefox produces unuseable results with the thumbnail pages.
Any suggesstions what to do? Ditch Aperture and use something else or edit every page by hand?

Sorry for not being clearer.
I am using the "stock black" template. When the thumbnail pages are viewed with Safari (also on an ipad) the title is at the top, the subtitle takes a little space on the left and the thumbnails are neatly spaced after the sub title, below the main title.
On all other browsers i have tried, the main title is on the left, taking a few hundred pixels, followed by the subtitle and the thumbnails are so far to the right that you have to constantly scroll to be able to select them.
I looked at the generated html and can see that it uses "divs" which contain tables instead of using, what is always more reliable across browsers, tables everywhere.
I will need to resort to writing my own html foto generator presumably.

IWeb 08 and browsers other than Safari

My site works fine on Safari but I've had a check on Opera and Mozilla and some things are missing, for example the reflections on the images and the borders round the images? The mind boggles on what will be happening with internet explorer!! Any clues out there?

I see there are a few options other than Firefox and Safari.
iCab
Flock
OmniWeb
etc
I can't, in good conscience, recommend any browser other than Safari. I have tried most of them and found them to be sad, pathetic imitations. I used to keep Firefox around for the occasional web site that wouldn't function properly with Safari but those sites have dwindled to almost nothing in the past year. I speculate that a combination of better, standards compliant coding by developers and the steady improvement of WebKit is the reason.
For whatever reason the majority of complaints about Safari compatibility seem to be coming from european users these days.
I assume you were using Firefox because of problems with Safari. Now you're having trouble with Firefox. That should be a red flag for you. Something is going on your individual system that needs fixing or attention.

Any program other than safari won't detect internet

any program other than safari won't detect internet eg. itunes, skype etc. I can't even system update.
Safari has no problems and I can use the internet fine.
Someone told me to check proxy settings and make sure "Use Passive FTP Mode" was ticked which it is...
Does anyone have any suggestions? I urgently need to fix this and I can't get an appointment to see anyone until next week.
Thanks!

Thanks Kaan for your reply,
Yes, Network does indicate that Airport is connected to the internet. Internet Explorer (OS X) connects instantly over the same network. Restarting Safari doesn't work. Waiting a few minutes doesn't work. Choosing a different web site to access doesn't work. Safari (1.3.1) has worked beautifully for months over this same network.
Thanks again and Happy New Year.

PBG4 12" - Setting external display to something other than 4:3?

Hello,
I've been using a 12" PBG4 as a basic media center for watching movies via mini-DVI to composite out, hooked up to an old 4:3 TV. Recently I've purchased an HDTV and am still using the 12" PBG4 as a media center. Obviously, the quality of the video isn't HD (as I'm going out via composite), but honestly, it's good enough (for me anyway).
But, my one problem is, the 12" PBG4 doesn't allow me to output the video (either when mirroring the displays or when mirroring is off) at an aspect ratio other than 4:3. Thus, on the HDTV, everything is stretched. To compensate, I have manually distort the aspect ratio of the video I'm watching (through the video software) to make it look the way it's supposed to. This works great for video, but when I do anything else on the HDTV, it's stretched.
So, I'm wondering if anyone knows how I'd go about setting an external display to an aspect ration other than 4:3? In the display preferences, all available options are 4:3?
Any advice would be appreciated!
Thank

If it is stretched on the HD-TV set the HD-TV to have a 4:3 resolution. Remember widescreen aspect ratios aren't always 16:9. If you read DVD specs on their back they have varied possibilities:

You can always reduce the video window to fit the onscreen resolution.

HDV Workflow -- What's wrong with this picture (other than some obvious)

Hi Powerusers,
I have a client with a canon XH-A1, they are ingesting via iMovie HD, cutting a rough timeline in iMovie, and then porting to FCP (via drag and drop) for me to finish on. Seems plausible all editing via AIC (apple intermediate codec). Final destination will be SD DVD, WEB, Handheld media, etc. Am I missing something or is this somewhat acceptable (other than loss of timecode) which they aren't concerned about since it's pretty lo-budget.
Is editing using the AIC horrible (picture looks acceptable). I'm not used to this workflow. I work in DV, SD or DVCPROHD codecs/timelines but am baffled by not being able to ingest directly from Final Cut with this Canon HDV camera, but iMovie has that flexibility (view, start, stop, import) whereas I'm not getting any options other than capture now with FCP.
Thoughts, criticisms, advice greatly appreciated.
cheers

I ended up capturing via FCP using HDV1080i60 easy setup with capture setting working with both Sony HDV over firewire and HDV Firewire Basic.
Seems like all is working well using this setup. It's far more than the client needs as we'll be downconverting the timeline to SD once complete, but good enough now for edit. HDV is not fun to work with I'll tell ya. Still having some errors with log and capture.

Are there any browsers for Mac other than Safari and Google Chrome that are better with adobe flash for my Macbook 2009?

On Safari Adobe Flash freezes at times on popular Flash chatroom I visit and on Google Chrome when I try to type the typing is laggy delayed. Adobe Flash needs to be fixed in Safari and possibly other Browsers, and Google Chromes html5 or whatever flash replacement their browser uses ***** on older hardware.

Go for Safari always, you will have more advantages than any other browser. You can safely install the Adobe Flash pluguin, it will install as pref pane in your System Preferences. From there you can limit its access, block sites for storing info in your mac.
Under the advanced tab of the Flash Player in System Preferences, check “Notify me to install updates”, so you are always up to date (feel free to check out any update directly form the Adobe website to be safe).
Steve does't want to allow Flash for iOS due to security issues (long story). But it's OK for mac, if you keep an eye on it.
Google's Chrome its decent, but you know, it's Google. I will prefer to take the advantage of the Apple's ecosystem, like syncing all Safari content and passwords with iCloud, to keep using it in your iOS devices. You can have an open page in your mac, and go to your iPad and continue with the same page.
Also you can find some useful Safari extensions that will trick the websites to load an HTML5 version of the video instead of flash (like if you were on an iPad).

Site not opening correctly in any browser other than Safari

Site created in iWeb '08 opens fine in Safari, but in other browsers opens with a really small browser window. When published to folder and opened in Firefox looks fine seems as though problem is with
uploading to .Mac or .Mac itself. Does anyone have any ideas?? help will be much appreciated.
Site is www.theobelisk.co.uk

Whoever do you domain forwarding did it wrong.
They put your .mac site in an iframe, they should have use frame instead.

On my Mac, why do websites display differently with FireFox than Safari.

I have been using FireFox on my Mac and prefer it over Safari, BUT recently, some, not all, websites are not displaying correctly! When I use Safari all the content is there and the websites display as they are supposed to. (I tried to insert a screen shot but unable to do so) I have the most current FF version installed, unless FireFox is not happy with my older MAC OS ??

Thank you for the info!! Attached are a few screenshots to show the problem - I now know how to do a screen shot! thx.... anyway note on the Ancestry shot Safari shows a male or female head whereas Firefox show a simple symbol for male/female. I spoke with Ancestry and it is supposed to be the male/female head icons that are displayed. In the Yahoo shot Safair displays the icons and names for reply, delete etc but Firefox has some icon that only if you hover over it will it then display the name or what it is. this is very perplexing as I really prefer Firefox over Safari... any help will be appreciated! thank you

Using Keychain Access for applications other than Safari

I am trying to decide what browser I want to use. There are several things to take into consideration - bookmarks kept in sync between the browers and passwords. So far I have stayed with Safari because it works with Keychain. I tried to open Keychain and add Firefox to a web form password but it doesnt appear to work. As for the bookmark issue, I downloaded "Bookdog" and it looks nice - the latest version is supposed to sync the bookmarks between the two browsers but I dont see a setting or option for that (emailed for support on that issue).
So, is there a way I can use Keychain for all of my browsers?

The following blueprint (http://www.sun.com/blueprints/0406/819-6320.pdf) describes what you want, but its not wise to put user-applications on well known ports. It wouldn't be the first time that an application crashes when a networkscanner is hammering on well known ports to find known problems. Also most of the time people are trying to bind there application on a well known port to bypass firewalls for example. So if you're going to do this, then please configure IPF for example to limit the amount of IPs that can access that port.

Can I use a browser other than Safari with iMac?

I have to use some applications that do not support Safari. How can I use an alternate browser?

You may still be able to use Safari, all you need to is:
Safari > preferences > advanced > click on show develp menu in menu bar. Then when you get to one of those site, click the Developers Menu and choose Internet Explorer.
Chances are the content you have is designed for Internet Explorer, choose I.E. in the menu bar and you should be OK.

Update Panel is not working browsers other than IE

In SharePoint 2013, Update Panel is not working for firefox, chrome etc.

Hi,
From your description, my understanding is that you use
<asp:UpdatePanel>tag in your code, but it does not work well in browsers except
IE.
I have test
<asp:UpdatePanel>tag with code below, and it works well in IE, chrome, Firefox
as the screenshot.
<asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanel1" runat="server" UpdateMode="Conditional" ChildrenAsTriggers="true">
<ContentTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="lbl" runat="server" Text="Loaded" Visible="true"></asp:Label>
<asp:Button ID="btn" runat="server" OnClick="btn_Click"/>
</ContentTemplate>
</asp:UpdatePanel>
protected void btn_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
lbl.Text = "BUTTON CLICKED !";
lbl.Visible = true;
The screenshot below is my result(the first is result in Chrome, second is in Firefox and last is in IE):
And you also could refer to this article:

Is there a way to choose another online app other than safari?

why is there only one online app on Ipads? Can it be changed? Just having to spend lots of time fixing it. thanks

If by "online App" you mean browser, then yes. There are many alternative Browsers in the App store such as Google Chrome, Opera, and many others.
Just search the App store for "Browser".

While editing C4 will display a slide other than the one selected

While using C4 4.0.1/1658 in edit mode, I select slide 3 (for example) but C4 displays 4.

Hello again
I'm stumped. I know you said there were no animations, but I thought that was exactly what the article I pointed you to was talking about. During the process of recording, even though you don't actually *SEE* any animation occurring, Captivate sometimes mixes two different background images on a single slide. And what you are reporting with the branching view showing these phantom extra slides seems to somewhat support that theory. At least in my mind.
About the only thing I can suggest here is to create a blank slide, configure the slide background for what you are expecting, then delete the slide in question. Aside from that, I'm stumped and hopefully someone else can offer a better suggestion.
Cheers... Rick

Making a spry menu work in browsers other than IE

I am having a hard time getting any vertical spry menu bar work in Safari, FireFox, etc. They work fine in Internet Explorer. Any ideas?
Here's an example: http://midlochorus.org/
Thanks in advance!
Karen

Thanks, Beth.
Like many others, I learned web design using tables and am trying to learn CSS. I am working on changing the positioning to relative, but now the page is all wonky. The left and top numbers are the same, but the nav bar is all over the place.
For what it's worth, I opened a new file and inserted a dummy vertical spry bar by itself with NO CSS... just at the top of the page, and I'm having the same problem. The menu will not expand in FF. I'll attach the document, and you can take a look.
As far as the flash issue is concerned, I had read about that problem. Fortunately, the only menu item that I wish to expand is not anywhere close to the fash object, so I'm hoping it won't be a problem in this case.
Thanks so much for your willingness to help!
Karen

Reoccuring Message. Won't let anything other than Safari open.

Hello,
On our Toshiba Satellite L305D computer, the message " Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item." This is weird considering it's showing up on the only profile that was ever used.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thank You!

Which Satellite L305D? Which Windows?
What are you doing when the message appears?
