Safari Crashes when I try to play a youtube movie

I am on an older computer system OX 10.4.11 and safari has made my computer unusable it crashes everytime I try to do anything especially when I try to watch a youtube movie and/or even try to open a youtube account.  I have tried to suggestions on the forum i.e. clean up cache, reset safari, clean up cookies, etc., etc. but my computer still crashes with Safari.  I tried to upload the 4.1.3 which I understand is the newest version my computer can take and reboot my computer but again safari crashes and I cannot get into youtube.   I would appreciate any suggestion --- other than buy a new computer  --- can't afford it.
Thank you.

Hi Jose...
Unfortunately, most sites that support Flash require the latest version which is 11.2.202.221 which cannot run on Tiger v10.4.11 and Safari 4.1.3, which would explain why Safari crashes when you try to stream Flash content.
Sorry to say but Tiger is several Mac OS X's behind..   Tiger v10.4 / Leopard v10.5 / Snow Leopard / 10.6 and Lion v10.7 and Mountain Lion is not far behind > http://www.apple.com/macosx/mountain-lion/

  • Why is firefox crashing when I try to play a streaming movie on Netflix?

    I have already contacted Netflix and they told me that there is nothing on their end causing this problem. Every time I try to watch a movie (any movie) on Netflix's streaming service, my browser (firefox) crashes, and this has been a persistent problem for about a week now. My computer has been restarted numerous times and I have updated my firefox to the newest version available. It is costing me money, since I have paid for this service, but am unable to use it. I want this fixed now. Thanks.

    You can't open a Word document in Firefox. You need to save the file and open it with your MS Office software.

    I found out the answer - Quicktime was damaged. I deleted it and downloaded a new copy and all worked fine

  • ITunes on Vista - crashing when I try to play purchased music

    Crashes when I try to play purchased music that I've copied from another machine.
    It has been authorized for two accounts, obviously ones that own the music, and playing songs brought from either account simply cause iTunes to crash, and it comes up with "iTunes has stopped working..."
    Brand new vista install, and brand new iTunes install.
    Any ideas?

    I had the same problem. Trouble is Vista is a new operating system that went to market filled with problems, the main one being nothing was ready to be compatable with it. Apple support recommened upgrading iTunes to the latest version sine Vista will not recognise older versions. I upgrade every time one is offered. It stopped my Dell from crashing everytime I tried to use the iPod. Try it, it may work.

  • ITunes crashes when I try and play a purchased music video

    This is a new problem and appeared out of the blue. Any suggestions how to fix?

    I'm having a similar problem (see thread below) - my purchased music videos used to play until I tried to move my library from my old PC to my new Mac. The restore kept failing as soon as a video file (.m4v) was encountered. Had to manually import blocks of music and avoid the videos. Now have my music again but iTunes just crashes when I try to play the music vids I bought from iTunes.

  • Slideshow in Photoshop Elements 9 keeps crashing when I try to output it to movie file (wmv)

    Made a slideshow using Photoshop Elements 9 that keeps crashing when I try to output it to movie file (wmv).
    This message appear: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Error
    This is totally new to me as I have made a few slidshows before and saved them into wmv-files without any problem.I tried to open the file and renew it "save as" and did the whole procedure over again but it still crasches. There is no video in the slideshow and all pics are .jpg and to summarize it - 5 days of work is nearly gone if this doesent convert into a wmv-file..... Pls advise any suggestion what to try here.
    Best regards

    Your crash has nothing to do with the junk filter. It looks more like a corrupt preferences file. If you're curious, you may check the validity of that file issuing the following command in Terminal:
    plutil ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plistWhat does it say? Now, try this:
    1. Quit Mail.
    2. Make a backup copy of the HOME/Library/Mail folder, just in case something goes wrong. You can do this in the Finder by dragging the folder to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down, for example. This is where all your mail is stored.
    3. In the Finder, go to HOME/Library/Preferences/. Locate the file com.apple.mail.plist and move it to the Desktop (to be deleted if this fixes the problem).
    You'll have to set up your accounts from scratch all over again. If given the option to import existing mailboxes or something like that, don't. Just enter the account information and Mail will automagically rediscover the data in HOME/Library/Mail/ when done.
    You'll also have to re-configure most of your settings in Mail > Preferences. The first thing you should do is go to Preferences > Viewing and disable "Display remote images in HTML messages" if it's enabled.

  • HT1657 When I try to play my rented movie I get an error 42110. Whats that mean?

    When I try to play my rented movie I get an error 42110. Whats that mean?

    Is this in iTunes, on an iPod/iPhone/iPad or AppleTV?
    Not sure what the error number is.
    If it's a portable device try restrating it by power cycling, if a computer reboot it and restrat iTunes - this may or may not work but cure an authorisation problem I had in itunes the other day.
    Good luck.

    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
    Reset the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings)

  • I get the message "adobe flash plug in has crashed" when I try to play a sample file from audible.co.uk

    I am running windows vista for business (32 bit), using firefox, when I try to play a sample from audible.co.uk the browser hangs and then I get the message, "adobe flash plug in has crashed". I have tried uninstalling the flash player and reinstalling to no avail. It also crashes using Internet Explorer and Google Chrome.

    If you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. Safari > Preferences > Extensions
    It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
    Try uninstalling the currently installled Flash plugin (required for most YouTube content) then reinstall new >  Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
    From your Safari menu bar top of your screen click Safari > Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
    Select:  Show Develop menu in menu bar
    Now from the menu bar click Develop > Empty Caches
