Firefox crashes as I am playing videos at You Tube

Just another crash report I got concerning the many crashes I have had lately while using Firefox 3.6.3 to watch You Tube videos. It crashes on several different You Tube channel videos, and it crashes when I attempt to watch playlists that I have created.

I think before uprooting the whole system, let us think about the compatibility issue among NOSCRIPT, ADBLOCK and flash media handler/downloader. Sometimes back there was a permission issue needing explicit entry of a script in allowed list under 'Tools' menu. The details were sent as when noscript got updated & autonotified.
But I am again in the rut, because I tried to install latest version with minimum plugins/addons for faster work.

What do I need to have set up to play videos on You Tube, these stopped playing when I updated to the latest Firefox

How are you trying to play them, in the iTunes store or the Music and Videos apps ? Downloaded and synced music and videos should be in the Music and Videos apps, and you can stop content that is only in the cloud from showing in them via Settings > iTunes & App Store > Music and Videos 'off' (under the 'show all' heading).
If you don't have your music and films/TV shows in those two apps then you should be able to download them into those apps via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app.

Just upgrade ipad 3 to ios 7.1.1 and i can't play videos on you tube using safari

Hello, i just upgrade my ipad 3 to ios 7.1.1 and i can't see most of the videos on you tube. I use Safari and I don't have the you tube app installed. Videos that used to play without problems, now the screen goes black and that's it, without any message. Any suggestions?
I reboot the ipad and it didn't work.

IOS device do not support Flash; you may want to try the following browser.
However Skyfire, Photon, iSwifter, Browse2Go and Puffin Web Browser will provide limited Flash capability

Firefox crashes when I try to play videos at You Tube

Firefox keeps crashing when I go to You Tube and watch a single video or videos on a playlist that I created. Other websites are not crashing, just You Tube. I'm using Firefox 3.6.3. I recently downloaded the latest version of Adobe Flashplayer as well.

Thanks for the info. It's really strange that it could have been connected to your power source somehow. However, the problem I am having, and most people are having, is flash related. The only fix (which seems to be temporary) is to uninstall and reinstall adobe flash player. I've done that about 20 times in the past 6 months. However, flash player just released a new version which might ease this problem a bit, and Mozilla just released the new beta which should stop the browser from crashing and only close the affected window. Still not ideal fixes but should make life easier.

Just installed Windows 7 + Firefox 7 when trying to play 'Discover Windows 7' first Silverlight plugin msg then Plugin Container has stopped working came up..although Firefox will play videos on You Tube..any ideas?

I've tried checking Silverlight plugin in 'Add-ons' seems to be fine but will not work in Firefox

In order to find out about the problem I have restarted another fresh install but inside a VM this time so I can take notes and snapshots.
I found that the following official package will break my Gnome 3.6 pretty easily:
- pygtksourceview2 : this one instantly crashes Gnome and you are no longer able to log in.
- pycups and pysmbc : doesn't crash immediately but after 10s you get the oops.
Let's remove them from the real install to see if it fixes the problem.
[EDIT] Tried again to install the above three package inside a fresh Gnome install living into a VM and it didn't crash. See post above regarding my broken Gnome which was related to fingerprint-gui package from AUR.

I downloaded and installed firefox 5, but uninstalled it because it is not conpatible with Real Player video downloader. I cannot download videos from You tube or other sites with Firefox 5. How can I resolve this problem? ooader

I use Real Player to play music and videos. I also download videos from You Tube and from other sites thru Real Player which is compatible with Firefox 4.0.1, but not with Firefox 5. Please tell me why?

Firefox 4.0.1 has been an unsafe browser since the release of Firefox 5. So please don't use it.
Real hasn't made Real Player Browser Plugin compatible with Firefox 5.

Cant play any videos from you tube and dailymotion

hello i have upgraded from win to windows 8 pro x64.i have the next problem:i cant play any video from you tube and dailymotion with IE 10,with firefox i have not any problem.what can i do?

Have you been able to successfully import these videos into iTunes? If so, use iTunes built in converter to convert it to a more iTunes friendly format. To do this, highligh the video and choose "Create iPhone or iPod version" from the Advanced drop down menu in iTunes.
When it has finished converting, try syncing the new version to your Nano.

I can't get any videos to play on my Mac. Like videos from You Tube or Facebook etc.

I can't get any videos on my Mac to play, like videos from You Tube or Facebook etc.

I just figured it out. Somehow I didn't change it to the correct code of 1. So on the second shot of 5 allowed I realized I didn't change and save. Now the dvd played.

Today I updated MS Explorer from version 6 to 8. I can't see videos in you tube neither using explorer neither mozilla Firefox

I usually use Mozilla Fire fox, but today I updated Microsoft Internet Explorer from 6 version to 8 version.
Since then I can't visualize videos in you tube neither using Mozilla or Explorer. Can you help me?
Thanks

There are some compatibility issues between the latest Flash player and some Firefox add-ons or settings. Could you see whether anything in this article helps: [[Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox]].

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?

When sharing a video on You Tube I am unable to enter text

When sharing a video from You Tube to Facebook I am unable to enter text in the text box. The video does go onto Facebook, I just can't enter a comment.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Installed Firefox

I had exactly the same issue, that the Apple wireless keyboard became unpaired, and I couldn't get past the password-protected log-in screen, because I didn't have a wired keyboard laying around.
OK folks,
Discovered by trial and error that it was the wireless mouse (not an Apple brand) that was preventing the keyboard from pairing, even though it's not a bluetooth mouse...
Here's the steps I used...
1. Disconnected the USB mouse cord from the Mac Mini.
2. Turned off the Apple wireless keyboard from switch on the back.
3. Turn Mac Mini off, then back on.
4. Waited for it to boot up as far as the password-protected screen.
5. Turned on the Apple wireless keyboard, waited for it to stop blinking, indicating (hoping) that it paired up.
6. And voila... was able to then type in the password...
7. Then plugged the non-Apple wireless mouse sensor cord back into the Mac Mini's USB port
I also immediately went in to the MacMini's Sharing options and set that up for remote management in case something else happens down the road for other problems...
Thanks though to all who suggested solutions... they may come in handy in the future.
Hope this helps someone else...

Cannot view videos in you tube or The Daily Show

I cannot view any videos with you tube. Neither can I view the videos on the Daily Show (which I get using the Modify Headers plug in) The all worked marvellously only a few days ago. I checked the Java is up to date, I have cleared the cache, restarted and tried again. I can see the videos on googlechrome, I can see the page but the video gets "there was an error, try again later" (you tube) the Daily show just does not finish loading the video part of the screen - but I get the websites. This is recent. what happened? how do I get it back?
