How do I fix? Flash videos like YouTube won't play sound on MAC OSX 10.5.8

Sound won't play on YouTube and other flash web based videos on my MAC OSX 10.5.8 So I installed the most recent version of Adobe Flash Player and it still doesn't work. I uninstalled and reinstalled adobe flash player. Nada. I updated my computer software and firmware. Still nothing. I checked my sound and apple movie trailers play just fine. Please assist.
Thanks so much!!!!
Oh, I have tried to play videos in both Safari and Firefox. No sound in both.

Yay!!!! My business partner @goodbadtech (on twitter) fixed it. Apple repair fixed it. Just got it back this morning. Then I updated Adobe flash as Mozilla asked me to do and the sounds disappeared again! Was so frustrated. But Spencer found this link and that saved the day :-)

Video on YouTube won't play !

Video on YouTube won’t play Until I refresh the page? However, when the video ends okay then can not play the video again? Video plays only once then had to refresh the page in order to watch the same video?

Hi G-hot, were you able to solve your other issues with Youtube from your earlier thread, or is this an additional problem with Youtube? I think if you could list all the problem in one list it might be helpful.

Also, did you do the usual?
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first on Youtube and Gmail). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
Then change the site at the top from youtube.com to google.com and clear those as well.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

Flash videos (like YouTube) reload automatically when opened

Videos played in Firefox, particularly flash videos like on YouTube, always reload automatically when I focus on them. For example, I open a video in a new tab to let it pre-load or begin to play it, then when I click on the tab to watch the video it will reload, defeating the point of the pre-load buffer. This happens on all flash video websites and is particularly annoying when multiple windows are buffering.
== URL of affected sites ==
http://www.youtube.com

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

When I try to play a flash video (like youtube) i have to click a flash button several times before it works. Why do flash videos not recogonize any clicks without several tries first?

When I try to go to a flash video, the video player never seems to recognize my mouse clicks without several tries.
It's hard to explain but if I'm at a youtube video and i place my cursor over the button that lets you skip around the video, the cursor will alternate being a cursor (like its not recognized) and a hand like its supposed to. It's sort of keeps flickering between the two if I move the mouse around on that little skip button.
I tried uninstalling firefox but it didn't make a difference. I noticed it after updating to the newer firefoxe updates. This does not happen under IE.
thank you for your help.

'''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode Start Firefox in Safe Mode]''' {web link}
While you are in safe mode;
Press the '''Alt''' or '''F10''' key to bring up the tool bar.
Followed by;
Windows; '''Tools > Options'''
Linux; '''Edit > Preferences'''
Mac; ''application name'' '''> Preferences'''
Then '''Advanced > General.'''
Look for and turn off '''Use Hardware Acceleration'''.
Poke around safe web sites and see if there is still a problem. Then restart.

How do I fix flash video stream stutter?

I have a ZBOX-ID84-PLUS-U HTPC with Integrated Intel Atom D2550 1.86 GHz Dual-Core and onboard NVIDIA GeForce GT 520M (512 MB), running windows 7 x64.
I have been fighting with this thing for weeks, but cannot get flash video to stream from sites like ufc.tv, nfl game pass. I have tried all combinations of browsers, new and old versions of flash, all recommendations I could find inother posts, including turning off GPU acceleration, reinstalling drivers, etc.
When video first loads, it runs smoothly at the highest quality setting for about 10 seconds, at which time it downgrades to the lowest (when set to 'recommended quality'). If I set the stream to maintain a level of quality, the frame rate drops off instead.
It doesn't appear to be a connection issue as I can stream from netflix (silverlight plugin), and connection speed is ~14mbps. It doesn't appear to be a connection with the streaming site, as I can playback the same content using other devices.
Any suggestions would be appreciated, before I give up and move on.
thanks.

I really don't have a problem using youtube in the browser or using any of the available apps unless I'm on edge, on 3G or wifi it plays fine ! You really need a strong and consistent connection, as I work in a bad reception area, I tend to download video to my phone to be able to watch where ever I want, if it won't work on your phones , I suggest you visit a Nokia Care Point !
If I have helped at all, a click on the White Star is always appreciated :

How do I fix my video that becomes choppy when played in Flash?

I have a video that I'm integrating into a SWF. Only problem is, it becomes choppy when I play in within the SWF.
It's a video that I created, and plays perfect in other players, just not when part of a SWF..

As far as it goes, you are doing everything correctly. If the original video file was compressed, the problem may be in the transcoding from the original compression to Flash's .flv file. If you have the original video and can output from a video editor to the .flv format, then you may get better playback.
You may also want to look at reducing the image size and/or the frame rate to try and improve the playback.

Videos on Youtube won't play on Firefox

When attempting to watch videos on Youtube, I'm presented only a black screen where the video should be, and no means of "liking" "disliking" or commenting on the video below it. I can navigate Youtube just fine, and it works with other browsers. I've also found that changing the address start to https:// allows me to watch videos, but makes navigation of the site very difficult. Hulu and Netflix work just fine on Firefox, it seems to only be Youtube that isn't working.

Try clearing the Cache in Firefox.
Tools-> Clear Recent History -> [v] Cache
or
Tools->Options->Advanced->Network -> Offline storage -> [Clear Now]
Youtube may have made some changes recently. Clear the Youtube cookie and refresh page if above does not do it.

HTML 5 videos (like Vine) won't play

Some HTML5 videos won't play in my Firefox browser.
This vine for example (https://vine.co/v/b3v5h3Piwt7) only shows up as a static image. I can click the mute/audio button though, but it won't play. When I look at the webconsole when I load the page then 2 javascript warnings show up,
the first one say that the Mediasource [long url here] can't be encoded
and another one says loading of all candidate sources failed. loading media paused.
I'm using Firefox 21.0 and I tried to run Firefox in safe mode with disabled add-ons, and I also tried to reinstall it, but without success.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks, Cor-El, but which part of my Problem Description was not clear to you? All those things and a great many more were tried and FAILED.
It is CLEARLY a new BUG that only appeared in the latest release or two of FireFox and SeaMonkey. It has absolutely nothing to do with AdBlock or anything else, unless the latest releases don't work with those add-ons. All add-ons were disabled to no effect. It has NOTHING to do with Cookies or Cache. I thought I was very meticulously clear about that, in the the Is / Is Not Differential Diagnosis description.
Please don't keep repeating the same ineffective "solutions". They do not work. It is a BUG in the latest, base FireFox and SeaMonkey releases. The problem goes away with earlier releases. It needs to be fixed.

No sound on web videos like YouTube, Yahoo, etc but sound on them using Chrome. Sound works in Win Vista Home 32 bit and in media players. Just no audio using Firefox 4.0 Unninsdtalled and re installed Adobe Flash 10.2.513.1

No sound on web videos but sound if I download them and then play them using any media player ( I use VLC 1.1.2) MP3s play fine.
Audio fine on same videos using Chrome. Sound fine on Win Vista Home 32 bit No audio using Firefox 4. Adobe Flash 10.2.153.1
Have un installed and reinstalled it rebooting each time. Same Videos play fine in Chrome so problem must be in Firefox/flash combination.

Fix for video like Comedy Central not playing on MacBook Pro

MacBook Pro has stopped playing streaming video from a number of websites, e.g. Comedy Central.
Spinner spins then stops and player window is black.
Have latest Flash player.
Have tried different ISP connections.
Have tried different browsers.
Rebooted numerous times.
Removed excess plugs from browsers.
Have tried wired and wireless.
Still not playing video from a number of websites, e.g. Comedy Central.
Any suggestions? Highly frustrated at moment as I have no TV and was relying on my MacBook for entertainment.
Thanks...Stephen

Solution for me was to 'Allow third party Flash content to store data on your computer' on the Global Storage settings panel:
http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_man ager03.html
Way creepy that comedy central requires this to be enabled to let you play their video. If you clear all your local flash data and then enable the third party storage and hit CC, you'll see new flash cookes from two domains: media.mtvnservices.com and secure-us.imrworldwide.com. I turn the above setting on just to watch clips on CC, then turn it back off and clear all the flash cookies. Probably not that important to do so, but it isn't too bad.

How do I fix choppy video? Premier Elements 12 plays DV fine, but mp4 edits poorly.

When I load video from my old DVC camcorder it plays smoothly during editing. When I load mp4 video from my drone camera, it is choppy. People using Premier Pro suggested changing the monitor resolution to 1/2 or 1/8, but I don't see that feature in Premier Elements 12.

Thanks, Hunt.
I checked out the source files and they don't match the Sequence Settings. My current project won't let me change the settings; is there a way to copy the entire old sequence into a new sequence with the correct settings without losing anything?
