Can't view video from browsers (mac)

Un-installed previous Flash players. Installed current Flash Player & Flash plugin-10.1r82 (trying to fix this problem). Youtube videos play, but most others display the standard "An error occurred, try again later" prompt. Same result in current Safari and Firefox. Surprising to see such a basic function fail & not see any posts specific to this problem. I am on a pre-intel G5 quad, but I believe that is current enough hardware for this task (?)  Apple is no help with their "anti Flash" stance.
Standard youtube videos are viewable. But Error occurs in embedded videos. Also this major youtube link:

Suggestions appreciated!

That other post, he did have Flash Player Installed but couldn't view the videos. When he did the test he couldn't see the animation so that is why I didn't think FP was Installed and had him Uninstall and Install again. However he still couldn't view the videos. Only when he went to Preferences and enabled that Shockwave Flash plugin in Safari was he able to and that was the problem. That's what I thought your problem may be.
Now I don't know if you have the hardware acceleration turned off or not. When this version of Flash Player came out it was supposed to work for the Mac. Some of the Mac versions it does and some it does not. You can try turning it off if you haven't. It is turned on by default. Go back to that test site I gave you and right click on the Flash logo, click on Settings,
then Display Settings is where you will see to UNcheck the h.a.
Did you find the Shockwave Flash plugin enabled in FF? And is it enabled in Safari?
Thanks,

  • How can I view videos from a website that uses flash player?

    Hi All...having an issue finding an application to use  to view videos on another website that uses flash player. I have Flip for Mac, but this doesn't solve the problem. Without this(Adobe) app, the videos will not run, rendering use of the website usless. Finding more and more issues in trying to use these video tutorials on my iMac/Maverick. Is there any help out there?

    Install Flash Player. Works w/o issues.

  • Can I stream video from my mac to apple tv the same way my ipad or ipod does?

    I just got my AppleTV hoping to stream video to it from my iMac.  I'm seeing this is possible with mirroring, but there was a ton of lag between the computer and tv, and the sound and video would skip horribly.  I plugged the ATV into our ethernet and that has helped tremendously, but there is still some visual lag and skipping going on with the video, noticable enough to drive me crazy when watching something like a movie. 
    However, I noticed that when I stream the same video to ATV with my iPad, it uses a method other than mirroring; the video is greyed out on the iPad with the ATV symbol on it and sends the video to the tv instead, and it plays seamlessly!  I wish I could say this is the solution to my own problem, but most videos I wish to watch are in a flash format, which does not work on iPad and I would therefore need to use my iMac instead.
    So, leading back to the title now, is it possible to stream a video on the iMac without using mirroring, such as how ever it is the iPad and iPod are able to do it?
    My iMac is the newest model currently out I believe.  27", i7 intel processor.  The AppleTV is also the newest generation I believe.  I just got both barely two weeks ago from the store here.
    Any help is appreciated, let me know if you need any more information.
    Thanks!

    I've set everything else up but cannot figure out how to display my laptop screen onto my TV.
    As Keithjammer indicates, the TV2 does not "mirror" your screen as the platform's video interface does. Instead, the TV2 device is a wired/wireless remote multimedia player. As such, it only plays files in a compatible compression format. To do what you want it to do would require your platform to first compress the screen audio/video data to a compatible format and then stream it to the device in real time.
    I've set everything else up but cannot figure out how to display my laptop screen onto my TV.
    Yes, only files can be streamed. You can, of course, capture your screen audio and video data to a compatible file and then stream the file to the TV2 device.
    ...except from both London Drugs (where I purchased it) and Best Buy (where I double checked).

  • HT201177 I can't view videos from YouTube.

    I am using Safari as my browser.  When I go to YouTube and select a video, they won't play on my MacBook.  There is a faint message in the video box that says "plug-in failure".  It doesn't matter what video I try to play.  They are all the same.  Can anyone help?

  • I can't import and view videos from a camera.

    I can't import and view videos from a camera.  Even if I open the file and copy the .avi files onto the hard drive.  I have tried iMovie, Quicktime, and Flip player.  Flip player will open it but I only get the audio,  Quicktime freezes, and iPhoto tries to automatically import only to then error saying the files are not compatible.

    Hello Hese,
    try the following:
    1. delete preferences (com.apple.iMovie.plist) and empty the trash
    2. repair disc permissions with Disc Utility and reboot your mac
    3. use Diskwarrior or MacJanitor for disc clean-up
    4. disconnect any other firewire devices
    5. take off any non-system desktop pictures
    If nothing else helps, you might want to consider resetting your Firewire port(s)

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    The Apple TV 2 doesn't show up under devices like the Apple TV 1, to send video and music to the Apple TV you need to use the Airplay Option which appears in the lower right corner of iTunes.

  • How can I move videos from Revolution phone to mac?

    How can i move videos from Verizon Revolution to Mac? My computer is Mac os x version 10.5.8
    I have several videos that are too long to send via email, which is how I have been moving pictures and videos. I plugged it in using the USB port. The phone says I'm connected via usb. My mac brought up a box warning that the "cd connected" is not readable.

    You can use the Image Capture app located in your Applications folder to import vidoe content from the phone to your Mac

  • How can I stream video from a P/DVR to my Mac

    Hi, How can I stream video from a Motorola dcx3400m P/DVR to my Mac? I have tried a Slingbox but the audio is out of sync witht the TV and it drives those watching on iPads or on the iMac in another room NUTS.
    Is it possible to use a TV tuner of some sort. I've looked at the eye TV thing but I live in Canada/USA region and the eye TV products all seem to be for Austrailia or the UK. The one product that might work is a DVR and I don't need to pay for that as I already have one.
    HELP!
    Jeff

    If your Mac has an audio input jack you can connect the output of a cassette machine to it (3.5mm stereo jack required). However many don't, so you will need a USB audio interface - Roland make a range. Alternatively you can buy cassette decks with a built in audio interface.
    You will need a program to record and edit the input: Audacity is free and is often bundled with USB-enabled players.

    how can i stream video from mac os x 10 using roku to my tv?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    OS X can't write in NTFS disks. If you want to write in NTFS drives, you have to use a third-party app like Paragon for NTFS, being this application the best one to write in those disks.
    Another option is to format the external disk in FAT32 or exFAT on a PC, so you will be able to read and write in Macs and PCs without having to use third-party apps. Do it on a PC and copy the files of your external drive to the internal disk first

  • Help! I can't transfer music videos from my mac to my iPad.

    Help! I cannot transfer music videos from my mac to my iPad. I simply want to transfer individual music videos from my Mac, but my iPad will not allow it. As soon as I check the box that says 'include music videos' my ipad says that I do not have enough space, which would be true if I wished to transfer all my videos. However, I only wish to transfer a few, something that I have done many times before. I then unchecked the 'include music videos' box, and of course, I could not transfer a single video, despite having plenty of free space. Please help!

    Wendy-
    All of my digital cameras seem to work OK with the iPad Camera Connection Kit, but I've read several similar reports here.  One thing to consider is whether your camera's battery is fully charged.  I doubt it matters, but might explain if it works sometimes and not others.
    I suggest you use a camera card-to-USB adapter to do the transfers.  I've tried several that worked.  The ones that drew too much current were the "universal" types that have several different card slots.  A camera store should carry an adapter, and may let you try it.  The ones I tried that draw too much current, were bad even without a card connected.

  • I can't watch videos from the net...

    i can't open videos from the internet, specifically those from yahoo sports and other sites. sometimes they just will not load, and sometimes i click to open it, and a new folder shows up on my desktop but if i try to open it it says that it cannot be opened because i don't have the right application to do so.

    Sounds like you're trying to view RealPlayer files. Since this program isn't preinstalled on Macs, you have to download it from this site. It also gives you instructions on how to install it.

  • Can not view videos on you tube in firefox4 using flash player11

    I'm using firefox 4 and i can not view videos on you tube.I've updated and reinstalled adobe flash player twice with no results.I've also tried the other checks,security blocking,cache,pop ups etc Works fine on IE. Hope someone has a solution.I've always liked firefox but not the newer versions and many of the changes;

    I can't believe you're still running Firefox 4. Why not a newer version?
    There are a number of active threads concerning the latest Flash player plugin (11.3) and the latest Firefox (12-13). Not all users are experiencing the same issues, but things to check include the following:
    - Conflict with Realplayer Browser Record plugin (to disable this, open Add-ons from the orange Firefox button or the classic Tools menu and look under the Extensions and Plugins categories)
    - Conflict with Flash 11.3 Protected Mode (see [http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1018071?tstart=0 Adobe Forums: How do I disable Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?])
    Scanning down the front of the forums probably will yield additional suggestions: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions
    Does any of that appear promising?
