Just found this thread on Safari and TinyMCE. Looks like Safari does not support WYSIWYG completely and TinyMCE is having issues with it (Note the topic number over there. Kind of fits.)

I'm quite capable of missing something obvious and I'm hoping for some simple explanation. Unfortunately, I have updated the profile. I also pressed shift+reload as suggested in the faq and that didn't help either.

Could this be a safari thing? I also have IE but wordpress comes up as such a mess (sidebar is unreadable) and I can't see the editor there, either.

I know it sounds silly but 1) you don't mention that you are and 2) We've had people not doing that in the past. No offense intended of course. :)

You may also want to read through this FAQ and see if that helps.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I've unclicked and clicked again the editor checkbox.

But, I have the "Use the visual rich editor when writing" box checked, and I have never seen the WYSIWYG. I am using the Regulus theme, Mac O/S 10.4.6, and Safari 2.0.3.

Thanks!

The one on the slow line had a script blocker turned on. Works like crazy now - loving it!

Wonder if it could be about line speed - sometimes I'm on a high-speed connection, other times on dial-up. Using XP/Firefox 1.5.0.1. Thanks for answering, OK for now. Chartreuse, are you on a slow connection?

Where is my WYSIWYG ?

Take a look at the following:

Dashboard -> Users -> Your Profile -> Personal Options.

You should see the option for the editor there. Make sure its checked.

Just wish to share it with everyone here:
