Problems with Slacker through Fluid for Mac

Postby austink on Wed Nov 04, 2009 6:13 am

I am trying to use Fluid App for Mac, which is a browser that allows the creation of a stand-alone application for each website. I have used this successfully with Pandora, Gmail and have been unable to find anything on other people having problems with Slacker. However, when I open it, it runs the website fine, but the middle section where the stations are is all black. If you click in that area, you can select text and there is a really long error message.

A prior post to these forums seems to indicate that others have gotten this to work, but it is not working for me with this URL or the main site URL. Anyone else using Fluid for Mac with Slacker Radio? Any settings I am missing? Thanks

Here is that earlier post that indicates it works...

Same problem here with Fluid on a G4 Mac.

Also tried Open in Dashboard, to create a widget, but got the same lack of results as with Fluid. Again, this trick works for Pandora.

Wish Slacker had better Mac support.

I got it to work by changing the User Agent (in the app's menu) to the latest version of Safari instead of Automatic.

Changing User Agent did not work for me. Are you on a PPC or an Intel Mac?

Thanks.

I am on intel and did at one time have the flash 10.1 beta installed but I believe I reverted back. Not sure why you'd still be having an issue...
