Re: further info re: password recognition on websites
Explorer has not been updated for the Mac for quite a while now and it doesn't work properly on may new sites even though the PC version works just fine. I find Safari slow in many cases and use Firefox instead. Tom On 12/3/05 11:53 PM, Amber R. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Forgot to add this info : Running Safari 2.0.2 on OS 10.4.3.

Re: further info re: password recognition on websites
Amber, I think they are two unrelated problems. The missing t scenario happened to me a couple of weeks ago with Live Help. The tech said to use all caps almost immediately, like he was used to this thing happening. I do not have the problem with Safari passwords that you describe. Concetta Hi Caleb, It's strange because all of this started happening about a week ago and has been getting progressively worse since. I have emptied the cache and reset Safari. I called my ISP and they told me that they felt it was a problem involving entering secure sites. I can't find any new Java updates. The other strange thing is that when I use eBay live help, I cannot type in lower case as the t key will not show up at all. I can only type in all caps to alleviate this problem. However, the eBay guy told me this is not uncommon with Mac users. Thanks for your suggestions ! Amber -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Thanks, Amber It sounds more like an issue with the keyboard than anything. However, I wouldn't count out an issue with the OS. You might could check the settings for your cookies and possibly clearing out the browser cache. This is coming from my experience on earlier versions of the Mac OS and various flavors of Linux and Windoze, though. As I have no experience with Tiger, and limited experience with OS X in general, this may not apply. It should work, though.

Amber That doesn't sound like a Java issue to me, but that's just my Linux and Windoze experience talking. If you're using the built-in keyboard on your 'Book, try using an external USB keyboard, and if you're using an external keyboard, try the built-in one. If that doesn't work, you can try running iCab for OS 8.5-9.x in Classic mode and see if that works. It's not elegant, but it might be worth trying.
