I appreciate your response. I have Firefox, Mozilla, Camino, Explorer and Safari. None of them are able to take advantage of the functions necessary. For instance, an onlince class with video and a powerpoint presentation shows the video, but no powerpoint - it does on the PC. Moreover, I manage a small website, which utilizes an online builder. I cannot see any of the text or the editing functions for the text, but there is a question mark, which when clicked will state that I need a java2 compliant browser. I am becoming very agitated with not being able to gain funtionability of these items. If there are certain settings I need to make or Perhaps there are just plain impossibilities with Macs. As long as I know. Please, again, any help.
