How do I watch other videos other than you tube

I just observed that other than you tube videos, I am not able to watch any other general videos that are posted on the internet. For eg: videos on the cnn website or videos.google.com website. So it looks like apple just built an interface just for you tube and did not provide any other player to play other videos.
I just wanted to understand if my understanding is right and also long term, do u think we will be provided with a player or something that allows us to watch other videos.
Just curious...

If there are other videos posed in the right format, you'll be able to see those as well. The iPhone would have to support Adobe Flash in order to play a lot of that content.

    How to arrange pictures other than by date

    You can select a folder of images or a batch and create an album. You can then drag the photos around and they remain fixed in your chosen order within the album.
    Also if you switch from thumbnail view (click the display button near top right in Organizer) to Folder Location view and select an individual folder from the left hand pane, the files will usually be displayed in file name order.

  • I have Airport Extreme as the base unit and an Express unit in a room separated by a brick wall to improve signal. Express shows a green light indicating signal but my iPad does not perform well. How can I improve other than hardwire ethernet connection?

    I have Airport Extreme as the base unit and an Express unit in a room separated by a brick wall to improve signal. Express shows a green light indicating signal but my iPad does not perform well. How can I improve other than hardwire ethernet connection?

    Other suggestions, and more info about the nature of the problem, may be in this Apple tech note.

    For example, you might find that the brick wall is not the only problem. There may be other devices pumping out enough wireless interference to be making things even worse.
    I agree with Bob Timmons that Ethernet is best and most reliable. And that powerline (which I use) is easier and potentially faster than wireless...but only if your power lines do not have electrical devices plugged in which produce electrical noise on the line. Powerline will be slower than Gigabit Ethernet.
    Ethernet cable is the only way to ensure that the signal goes directly there in a shielded way for a clear fast signal. Wireless and powerline are much slower because of all the other things the signal has to fight past to get to the other device.

  • How can I watch a video clip in my iPad 3?

    I just got an attached video clip from my brother, sent to my hotmail. When I open the clip, it just shows an overcrossed play bottom! How can I watch a video clip in hotmail, using an iPad? Do I need to download an app or what? Please!?

    Well on a Mac you can install
    Flash
    Silverlight
    Perian
    VLC
    Flip4Mac
    DivX
    and many other codecs/tools to watch anything.
    Guess the iOS isn't really all that it's cracked up to be, ignoring the wider world out there.
    Your only choice to complain to Apple about closed devices they make, but of course they know this already and using the iPad as a cheap "netbook" halo effect device so you get to upgrade to a Mac, just like they do with iPhones and iPods.
    In the meanwhile they are slowly closing the door on OS X, a little at a time so it's not noticeable.
    Pretty soon the excuse will be "sorry I can't play your video you sent me mom, I've got a Mac"

    After you have recorded the video, transfer it to your PC using the instructions in this Apple support document.

    From there, open the file in a media player that supports the file format such as Quicktime.

    How can I watch a video? I can hear it but I can't see it.

    Hi,
    Unfortunately the number you've posted is not the Model or Product No. - see the guide on the link below for details on finding this information.
    http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c00033108
    In the meantime, try a clean installation of the flash plugin/activeX as follows.
    First, download the Flash uninstall utility on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    Flash Player Uninstaller.
    When the download has completed, close all browser windows, open your Download folder and run the uninstaller.  After this has completed, restart the notebook.
    When windows has reloaded,use Recovery Manager to reinstall your original graphics driver(s) - see the guide on the following link on how to use this software to reinstall drivers.
    Recovery Manager - Windows 8.
    After this reinstallation, restart the notebook again, then download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash.  Note: You may want to deselect the option to include McAfee Security Scan Plus before downloading.
    When the installation has completed, restart the notebook once more.

  • I cannot (anymore) play a song on iTunes, nor can I play a video, ie. You tube.

    I cannot (anymore) play songs on iTunes, nor can I play a video, ie. You Tube.

    I have done a google search, and I used a suggested fix by going to Quicktime; Preferences); Quiktime Player; click on audio source; close Quiktime and iTunes; restart.  It then works for both iTunes song and You Tube video.  But when I restart the computer, it no longer works.

  • How to create user other than 'sa' to connect database server in SAP SBO

    I want to ask how the step for create user other than 'sa' to connect database server in SAP SBO? Until now I use 'sa' (default) for connect to database server in SAP SBO application.
    Can I do that?

    You may create multiple SQL users to give full right to B1 database instead of using 'sa' user.
    However, the preferred way would be by Use Trusted connection when you set the connection to SQL Server. In this way, you just need one more user for SQL.  A group of window users could use this SQL access to connect database server.
    Thanks,
    Gordon

  • How can I watch this video?

    Guys, I have a MacBook (from around Christmas 2007). I downloaded Flip4Mac and have little trouble watching streaming video. I went to a CBS-affiliate website and can't see the video that I want to see. I can watch the featured video fine. But the video that I want to see is one listed below the features. I followed the " downloaded Windows Media Player plugin with no chage. When I click on the link it kicks me over to the "MAC USERS: Video Troubleshooting Tips." I downloaded WMP to no avail.
    What can I do?
    Here is the website:
    http://www.wreg.com/Global/category.asp?C=53326

    Welcome to Apple Discussions:
    It doesn't play for me either and the help file says Flip4mac is not supported "at this time" so I guess they don't like Macs.
    The site says:
    "Does the Video Player support Flip4Mac?
    Not at this time. To download Window Media Player, click here."
    And even that link to DL the player is messed up. It goes to something completely different.
    It's a typical website run by typical website personnel who barely manage to get things working.
    The main video is flash which is why it plays.
    Here is the MS page for whatever it offers:

    To answer your question - you need to run Winders.

  • HT6074 How can I watch flash Videos with the ipad with safari?

    I Have an iPad an I'll watch flash Videos with this. But there is no Flashplayer. Is there any Plugin?

    There is no Flashplayer for any iOS device and there never will be. Flash is replaced on iOS devices by HTML5 which is a superior technology endorsed by both Apple and Microsoft as well as almost everyone else in the industry except Adobe.
