On my Ipad I seem to be having a problem when trying to play YouTube videos embedded on Facebook.
When I click the links, I get a message saying: "Flash Player upgrade required."
and under it, it says, "You need to download and install the lastes version of Adobe Flash Player to view this content"
and also a green button saying "Get Flash Player"
I get this if using chrome or safari .
I can go direct to YouTube it just works.

The Facebook link to the video is accessing an Adobe Flash video. Unfortunately, no iOS devices can play flash.

Why when trying to play YouTube videos does it tell me I need JavaScript and adobe flash player but phone doesn't support

Get error message when trying to play YouTube video's say phone don't support adobe flash player but sometimes it plays them

This is because the html5 player will load the video by default. I have noticed lately that some channels required flash player. Do you have an example video by chance for further investigation?

Firefox hangs when trying to play YouTube videos. Ending task starts the video and application, but the same thing happens when trying to view the next video. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Task Manager shows that Firefox is still running. Clicking End Task restarts the video playing and application running (then I have to cancel the End Task and Close Program processes).

Try uninstalling Flash Player 10.2 and install the previous version, 10.1.There have been a few reports of problems with Flash that have been solved by using the previous version. You can download the uninstaller for Flash, and get version 10.1 from http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html
The Adobe archive files contain multiple versions of 10.1 for all operating systems so is quite a large download, the old-apps lets you just download the Windows versions that you require - http://www.oldapps.com/flash_player.php
You can also try disabling hardware acceleration on Flash to see if that helps. If you can access any Flash content, right-click on it and choose Settings. In the first section of the settings is the option to enable/disable hardware acceleration.

Flash Player 9 is installed but I get a message "Macromedia Flash player required"?

I have installed the last 9th version of Adobe Flash Player.
Few weeks ago I had no problems with my browser when visiting
websites with Flash content and it was the same 9th version of
Flash.
But now, when visiting some websites I get a message
"Macromedia Flash Player required" (but not Adobe Flash Player).
I've reset all settings in "Internet Options" dialog. I've updated
the last version of Flash Player. I have no problems when visiting
websites with Flash content with Opera, Mozilla Firefox and
Netscape Navigator. The only problem is with Internet explorer. And
what's strange? When I visit, for instance, www.lamborghini.it or
www.flash-game.net, there are no problems, but when I visit
www.dodge.be or I want to read some Course material in
http://cisco.netacad.net I get
that message.
I don't think that the problem is that Dodge or Cisco use
files of old version of Flash. Because, as I've already said, I had
the same version before, installed on my PC, and I had no problems.

Probably you get that message because the flash plugin
checker they implemented is checking for a specific version and not
higher then x.

'Flash Player Upgrade Required' on facebook

For the past three weeks, I have been repeatedly instructed 'You must install the new Flash Player upgrade to view this content',
which i had hitherto viewed with no problems at all. I have since repeatedly tried to comply with this order but am repeatedly told
that my Mac 10.4 Power PC system does not support the upgrade. I have tried to install various other 'Adobe recommended'
versions of the Flash Player but none of them work ( having been 'installed successfully' ). Should i simply resign myself to never
again being able to view any videos on Facebook or would Adobe prefer that i install a new operating system which suits their
software upgrade ?

It's not what Adobe would prefer, but what Facebook wants. As regards the latter, Facebook is an advertising funded business from which they make a lot of money. See: Facebook Could Surpass $1 Billion in Revenue This Year
Companies which advertise on Facebook want; in fact demand that the products they want to display in Flash meet their expectations. Since Adobe also makes their money from selling licences for commercial use, they're keen to meet those expectations in order to ensure that businesses don't switch to another technology.
So I'm afraid to say that unless your system meets the Minimum System Requirements to display all those ads, then you're going to be left out in the cold.

TS1424 has anyone not been able to get the installer to properly load and get a message like: This installer is intended for 32 bit versions of windows. Please download and install 64 bit iTuines installer instead? and even if you uninstall and reinstall

Has anyone not been able to get the iTunes installer to load properly and get a message like this: This iTunes installer is intended for 32 bit versions of windows. Please download and install 64 bit iTunes installer instead. I have tried repeatedly to get this to load, I have uninstalled iTunes completely and reinstalled and still get the same message. I have windows XP and a brand new ipod touch which I am trying to load.

Yes, it's come up a number of times. If you look to the right under "more like this", you'll find threads that may offer useful suggestions.
Regards.

I get a Software Update message that says "Update Available" A Security and stability update for Firefox is available: Firefox 8.0.1 ...when I click the link I get a message that Firefox is connecting to the update server but nothing else happens.

When I click the link Firefox shows a status bar and states that it is connecting to the update server, but the status never changes and nothing seems to be happening.

Sometimes the updater gets in a funny state - Go to http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/ and download the full installer. Close Firefox and run the installer

IPad times out when trying to play shared video (solution)

Problem description: This problem has plagued me for months. I have a series of home videos and purchased movies on my Mac that I had home shared with my other Apple devices using iTunes 11. Sometimes everything would work smoothly, but some other times one or more devices would refuse to play videos. Over the last few days, both my iPads had refused to play any home shared videos ("The request timed out." would pop after a long wait). On the other hand, my Apple TV and iPhone would play these nicely. Also, all music shared via home sharing would play on all devices.
Cause identified: I am using a BELKIN Wireless Dual-Band N+ Router. I had it set up with the same SSID for both the 2.4GHz and the 5GHz bands in the hope that my streaming devices would automatically choose the highest performing configuration. It turns out they did not. While troubleshooting the time out issue, I configured the two wireless bands with separate SSID's which allowed me to observe that both iPads had trouble using the 5 GHz band (N mode only). I could not even get them to validate the pre-shared keys on this band. When switching all devices to the 2.4 GHz band (B+G+N mode), boom! everything started working nicely! The iPads seem to have an issue with the N WiFi mode on the 5 GHz band.
Solution: If using a dual band wireless router, try each band separately with unique SSID's/pre-shared keys. Choose the best performing one, and make sure your devices "forget" any wireless configuration that seems to be causing trouble so they won't later on decide to switch back to them.

You need to set the band on the wireless router. Depending on your router model, do that either from your browser, or using the software that came on a CD-ROM.
To use your browser, you need to enter the router's IP address, usually http://192.168.2.1/. This may me different for different router manufacturers. Check the WiFi settings once you are able to log on. The browser-based interface may require an admin password. In most cases the default password is blank, but, again, different manufacturers use different defaults. It is best to use a computer that is hard wired to the router using an ethernet cable. That way the wireless changes will not affect your connection to the router.
Once the band is set in the router, your iPad or AppleTV should be able to detect your wireless network. Once you change the band, the devices may ask you for your wireless password again.

"Flash player upgrade required" ??

Hi, i am having a problem i have not encountered untill now..
I keep getting this "update required" message when i want to watch a video on Facebook, but everywhere else it works fine, i installed the latest version but it still pops up this same message whenever i want to watch something..
This is only happening on Facebook and nowhere else, does anyone know what could be the problem and maybe have a solution to it?
I am using an ASUS laptop running Windows 8 , and using Chrome as my browser
Thank you in advance

Google Chrome includes a built-in Flash Player and is always up to date, as long as Chrome is allowed to install automatic updates.
If it's specific to a website or a handful of sites, it's probably just bad Flash Player detection code, which they would need to fix.
if you're seeing it everywhere and you're on your home network, you might want to restart your wifi router and then install the latest available firmware for it.

I'm getting this error when trying to play music videos I bought in iTunes. "The music video " "could not be found. Would you like to locate it?

I bought the videos on my old MacBook. I transferred everything to my new MacBook Pro when I bought it. I'm not sure if they didn't transfer correctly or not. Does anybody know how to relocate the files?

What happens when you drag and drop the file onto iTunes?
You could also try to redownload it through iTunes.

When trying to launch iTunes it freezes and I get the message: "Authentication Required. To access this site you need to log in to area "100656 on mellor.co. Your password will be sent in the clear." I am unable to enter a uname or password. Please help!!

When trying to launch iTunes on my PC running Windows 7 it freezes and I get the message: "Authentication Required. To access this site you need to log in to area "100656 on mellor.co. Your password will be sent in the clear." Because iTunes is frizen at this point I am unable to enter a username or password, or in fact do anything. Please help!! I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes numerous times as well as attempting all of the fixes that I could find on-line and still no joy.

That sounds extremely phishy to me... iTunes does not require authentication simply to launch it. I suspect you've got something nasty intercepting network traffic. That server may be set up to log the Apple ID that you enter so it can be used fraudulently. Try ComboFix from Bleeping Computer.
FWIW the domain mellor.co is registered to an accountants in Knutsford, Cheshire, UK, and produces the same authentication request if visited with a browser. There is no sign of a "real" publicly visible website at that domain which is a somewhat odd.
