Yosemite font problem in browsers Chrome and Opera

Hi!
I have several issues since I updated my new Mac Pro to Yosemite.
One really bugging issue is that several websites show an A in a square instead of the correct font. This happens in Chrome and Opera. Does anyone have a solution? I would greatly appreciate the help (and I promise to never update to a brand new Mac OS system again!). Grrr!

Angela,
I don't know if this will help but in another thread I wrote:
Have you tried "Restoring Standard Fonts..." in Font Book? I remember reading on these forums that selecting this option fixed a similar issue. I apologize as I've not been able to find a link to it.
Hope that helps,
Weston

Animation fully runs in Chrome and Opera, not in any other browsers

All,
I created an extensive animation with images and sounds (*.mp3 and *.wav files) using Adobe Edge Animate for a website I'm creating for a client. I've uploaded everything to the host, which is Shopify, and the animation works in Google Chrome and Opera but not in any other browsers. In other browsers, the preloader displays but when it's finished, it just shows a couple images of the animation randomly then freezes on one of the image, meaning that it doesn't animate. It just shows an image and gets stuck.
I'm really confused and stuck on this issue. I've been trying to get it to work for a long time now and I'm running out of time. I read about the .htaccess issue in other threads and I have an e-mail out to Shopify to see if they can help me with it. Other than that, has anyone else run into this problem? Any advice?
Thank you so much in advance!

flasshy, kindly refrain from posting the same question more than once - you are getting assistance in your other thread. It is best to carry on with it there until you get it resolved.

Will not load and function. Does having other browsers installed prohibit Firefox from working? i.e. Internet Explorer, Google Chrome and Opera?

I downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. It locks up before it can load any Web site. I removed Firefox for similar reasons once before but now trying to reinstall. I have Windows 7 64 bit system with I.E., Google Chrome, and Opera installed. Why does Firefox fail to function?

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

Have two browsers, Chrome and Chromium, flash is installed on one but not the other

Hi All,
I have spent a ton of time on this and am stuck.
I have two browsers, Chrome and Chromium, they both have separate profiles(Chrome has work profile Chromium has personal profile). The Chrome installation is fine, I have the plugins in the Chrome://plugins and everything is great.
The Chromium browser is not so great. I have tried the install maybe 30 different times. The scenarios are:
I have tried using the Chromium/Opera install-able
one with the browser closed
one with it open
I have tried the regular Chrome install-able
one with the browser closed
one with it open
I have tried the diagnostic tool: Installation problems | Flash Player | Windows - It says I have the plugin installed but it is not enabled. Then i look at the chrome://plugins and there are 3 plugins listed: Chrome PDF Viewer (2 files), Chromoting Viewer and Native Client, all of which are enabled.
I have tried to download and install directly from the installer site: http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/latest/help/install_flash_player_ppapi.ex e
Any help would be really great.
Thanks so much.
Sean

Chrome comes with a built-in version of Flash Player. Everything else built on Chromium does not. Fortunately, there's a standalone PPAPI installer for Chromium-based browsers. It's only available for Windows at the moment.
Now, the browser itself may need to do some work to be able to discover and support Flash Player (particularly if they're not actively staying on the latest available PPAPI interface), so not every Chromium fork is going to work, and it's nowhere near as mature as the player in Chrome, but it's a thing that exists. We've been doing a lot of work with the Opera team on the PPAPI Flash Player, and Opera Next is an active Chromium-based project.
If you run into problems, please file bugs over at http://bugbase.adobe.com/.
Anyway, to get the download, use the link below.

Firefox not showing colours of website pages despite trying out your troubleshooting tips or reinstalling, while no such problem isthere with Chrome or Opera

I am surprised, as I have been using Firefox for the last so many years, and have never encountered such a problem. Any website that I access with Firefox has its colours missing. The background is just white. Colours of Header/Navigation tabs etc are also missing. There is no problem with Font sizes or colours.
I see that this problem is unique with Firefox only. I tried your troubleshooting tips including 'Tools - Options - Content - Colours - Allow pages to choose own colours..' and also reinstalling latest version of Firefox without any addons. Problem persists.
I tried the same websites using Chrome and Opera, both of which have returned original page colours.
Can anyone help me please?

Make sure that you haven't enabled a High Contrast theme in the Windows/Mac Accessibility settings and that you allow pages to choose their own colors in Firefox.

Updated to Yosemite, no problem. now iPhoto and iMovie won't open. Says I need to update software however, when i try to update indicates my User ID and PW won't work for these two pieces of software. User ID and PW works everywhere else.

Updated to Yosemite, no problem. now iPhoto and iMovie won't open. Says I need to update software however, when i try to update indicates my User ID and PW won't work for these two pieces of software. User ID and PW works everywhere else.

I am having the same problem. I even changed my password and updated all of my security information. Now it just gives me an error and retry message, which of course also does not work. Went to support and was going to open a chat (seemed the simpler option) and received a message that my support has expired for this serial number unless I want to pay $29.00. So I chose the option to call later, which was the exact time suck I was trying to avoid. Why wouldn't the new operating system also update the apps that were already part of my old platform?

Get URL from Chrome and Opera.

Hello,
I need to extract the URL and title of currently active tab in Google Chrome and Opera browsers. I manage to do this with Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox but having troubles with those two.
Can someone help me with this issue?
Would be grateful for a code sample.
Thanks in advance.

As far as I know Opera uses QT for the UI (or at least used to use QT in older versions and now uses an different UI frameswork). I assume Chrome also used QT or a similar UI framework. QT is completely different from the normal Windows Controls. You will
not find anything in a Opera or Chrome Window using SpyXX.
Therefore there are only a less ways getting the URL. A suitable way could be taking a screenshot and finding the URL bar and doing an OCR on this URL bar.
Best regards
Bordon

Facebook and youtube videos don't work on firefox. (Vimeo does & videos work on chrome and opera)

When I try to open an video in youtube or facebook the player just goes black and white.
With google chrome and opera I don't got any problems..

Hello,
Starting in Firefox 23, if a secure page includes certain types of insecure content, Firefox blocks the insecure content and a shield icon will appear in the address bar. See this article for more information about the new mixed content blocker: [[How does content that isn't secure affect my safety?]]
To temporarily allow the mixed content to be displayed:
*Click the '''shield icon''' [[Image:Mixed Content Shield]] in the address bar and choose '''Disable Protection on This Page''' from the dropdown menu.
[[Image:Fx23MixedContentBlocker]]
To allow insecure content to be displayed in all secure pages, enter '''about:config''' in the address bar and double-click on this preference, to toggle it from true to false:
'''security.mixed_content.block_active_content'''
You can also use this add-on instead, to toggle the preference:
*[https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/toggle-mixed-active-content/ Toggle Mixed active content] add-on
You may want to do this only for the current session, then reset the preference back to "true" and check back with the site to see whether it's been fixed, since this is a global setting that exposes you on all sites, not just the one you care about.
Let us know if this helps!

Only Able to Connect to Google Chrome and Opera on Internet

I'm running 10.9.5 on a Mid-2011 iMac. The problem started last night after I uninstalled Norton Security for Mac. Since then although I am connected to the internet through my ethernet connection, I'm unable to access the internet except through Google Chrome and Opera. No luck with Safari, Firefox, Apple Mail App Store, iTunes or Microsoft Outlook for Mac. My cable company, Time-Warner Cable, was unable to help.
Here are the steps I've taken, since last night, all without success
Backed up to 3 or 4 previous backups in Time Machine;
Rebooted the cable modem;
Turned off the firewall;
Shut down my iMac and pulled out and put the ethernet cable back in and then restarted;
Flushed DNS using the app "DNS Flusher";
Manually changed the DNS Servers in the Advanced subsection of the Ethernet section in System Preferences;
Started my Mac in the Safe Mode;
Created a separate Administrative Account in the User and Group section in System Preferences
Some of the above steps I tried more than once and at this point am out of ideas.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
--Chuck

I've used the X2 and its works fine with Whatsapp and Google Play.
Also do try a different SIM card on the phone.
Also for the Security App, you can actually add the Whatsapp and Facebook or those app that you trusted into "Trusted App".

For no apparent reason, my email will not autofill addresses. I have no problem on IE, Chrome or Opera. This problem just started with firefox within the last 24 hours. My mail server is AT&T/Yahoo, and I use webmail - not a mail program.

With all other browsers, when I compose an email, once I start to put the recipient's name in the To box, it will autofill the name if it is in my Contacts. This has been the case with firefox until the last 24 hours. Now, firefox does not automatically recognize any of my contacts. This problem is not happening on IE, Chrome, or Opera. I access my email through my AT&T/Yahoo account on the web, not through a mail program.

please try to uninstall the adobe flash plugin from the windows control panel. afterwards manually delete any leftover files in ''C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash'' and download & install the plugin again (uncheck the option to install the bundled security software): www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer

A div in a site am developing is not showing in firefox but shows on all the other browsers (chrome, safari, opera and explorer), can anyone help?

i am developing a site and i used divs in making the arrangements.
all other divs on the page shows but on particular one does not show.
i gave all the divs a border with a red color, all the other browsers(explorer, opera, chrome and safari ) shows the divs with the colors but firefox does not even show the red color

Can you post a test case demonstrating the problem? It doesn't need to contain confidential content or active links. (This forum doesn't handle raw HTML very well, so I don't recommend pasting code here unless you convert your angle brackets to HTML entities.)

Problems with loading flash content in firefox, chrome, and opera

Salutations. The past couple of days, I've been having trouble with loading flash content on many sites. In particular, many flash games on sites like facebook will not load for me. Sporadically on other sites, flash content will not load, either.
I have no trouble with flash in IE9, but when I try to load these same pages in opera, chrome, and firefox i receive a "This Adobe flash plugin has crashed" error. I do send a crash report each time I receive this error. I've uninstalled flash and reinstalled it several times and it still performs this error. Sometimes when i try to load certain flash games on Chrome a "the following plugin is unresponsive: shockwave flash. would you like to stop it?" error and this makes the whole browser unresponsive. I receive the same error in Opera.
I have the following browsers and flash versions:
Firefox: 6.0.2 with adobe flash 10.3.183.7
Chrome: 13.0.782.220 with adobe flash 10.3.183.7
Opera: 11.51 with adobe flash 10.3.183.7
As for my system, I have Windows Vista Home Premium with service pack 2.
Prior to upgrading to this new version of flash, everything worked fine in all of these browsers for me.
As an afterthought, I figured that I should mention that I'm running adobe flash 10.3.183.5 with IE9, which is the main difference between that one browser and the other three.

Thanks for the report. Odd that IE is fine, though maybe something broke between .5 and .7. Would you mind opening a new bug on this issue over at bugbase.adobe.com? Here's a post that describes the information we'll need and instructions for generating a crash log:

Chrome and Opera- Aw Snap/ Crashing Error on Literally Everything!

I bought the new Mac Pro this past summer and have never been able to get Chrome or Opera (latest versions of each) to work.
I have performed the steps suggested in the Google Help Center, including renaming the "Default" folder in Application Support/Google, and nothing has worked.
Interestingly, the exact same problem happens with Opera. Neither browser is usable at all. Chrome with the "Aw Snap" for every single page (including About, Help and Extensions) and Opera with the "Page Crashed" error message.
This has to be a solvable issue. I've posted repeatedly on the Google help forums and searched extensively, but found nothing yet, save a handful of people with the same issue.
What do these two programs have in common that could cause them both to completely fail?
By the way, Safari and Firefox work fine.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Mac OS X 10.9.4, Opera 25.0, Chrome 38.0.2125.104

In case anyone ever has this issue, I never resolved it, not even with multiple contacts with Google's online support. The issue was instantly resolved when I upgraded the OS to Yosemite. NO idea what caused it or how to fix it if it happens again, but it does make me want to avoid Chrome unless it's necessary...

Titles not recorded "correctly" in Safari but OK in Chrome and Opera?

Browsing my site with Opera or Chrome and then checking the browser history, page titles are listed correctly but in Safari they are mostly "Untitled Document." Most helpful to me if someone could check the code on a page and let me know what's awry. http://www.ristaustudio.com
Thanks!

Looks ok to me in Safari on Mac.
One certainly needs some attention though - on the 'Contact' page. Somehow you have the meta 'keywords' tag inside the <title></title> tag:
<title>Contact Mel Ristau
<meta name="keywords" content="sculpture" />
