FOR A MAC, IS IT POSSIBLE TO SEE “TRUSTED SITES” THAT ARE SUPPOSED TO BE VIEWED BY INTERNET EXPLORER ONLY?
I not long ago got a MacBook. After I got it, I detected that I cannot get to my work database site unless I have Internet Explorer. However I downloaded Firefox and set the User Agent Switcher to IE. That should have worked, but I got this message:
“JavaScript is blocked
You need to capacitate JavaScript for your browser in sequence to run this application. One approach to do this in Internet Explorer is to supplement (site URL omitted) to your Trusted Sites list. On your Internet Explorer menu, click Tools, afterwards click Internet Options, afterwards click the Security tab. On the Security tab, click Trusted Sites, afterwards click the Sites button. Type (site URL omitted) . Click Add, afterwards click OK or Close, afterwards click OK. The site is right away on your Trusted Sites list.
Click here to come in the focus after JavaScript is enabled.”
I checked my Firefox preferences and I DO have Java and JavaScript enabled on it, so I am at a loss as to what to do. There is no “Trusted Site” list on Firefox of that I could find.

I’m afraid at present there is no way of seeing Trusted Sites.
Once again us Mac users are being discriminated again because we choose not to use a Microsoft product.
Mozilla (Firefox) is aware of the issue and hopefully when Firefox 3 gets fully released (Out of BETA) they will have a solution.
One short term fix would be to use BootCamp on the Mac, you can reboot your Mac in to Windows XP (SP2) if you’ve got a disc, or even better use something like VMWare Fusion or Parallels Desktop where you can have both Windows XP and Mac OS running on the same screen. Once again you need an unregistered version of Windows XP Service Pack 2, but it would be a fix none-the-less.
Tell me what you're thinking...
