Youtube widget says url is invalid

Hi, I have never used iWeb widgets before. I am trying to use a youtube widget on one of my pages (using iWeb 3.0.4). When I copy my youtube page's URL iWeb says "The YouTube URL you entered is invalid". The URL works fine on the internet. Anyone know what is going on?
thanks,
C

YouTube Widget rejects urls?

So I want to embed a YouTube Widget that is a youtube search result, but apparently the iWeb YouTube Widget only takes a SINGLE video URL as an argument? Srsly?? This seems broken to me ..

Let Apple know about that here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iweb.html

I am trying to add the Youtube widget, but I get a black box saying blocked plugin. I have even tried to embed it from Youtube as well and it does the same thing. But when I drag the Vimeo widget over, it connects like it should. What am I doing wrong and

I am trying to add the Youtube widget, but I get a black box saying blocked plugin. I have even tried to embed it from Youtube as well and it does the same thing. But when I drag the Vimeo widget over, it connects like it should. What am I doing wrong and how can I fix this problem?

Make sure that both the web browser you're using and its Flash plug-in are up to date. Google Chrome has its own Flash plug-in it updates on its own. Firefox, IE and other have separate plug-ins.

Every time I try to go to my homepage I get an error saying my url is invalid

YouTube Widget not working

I have embedded teh YouTube widget in my web page created with iWeb, and verified teh URL is correct, but the widget still says teh URL is invalid. I can copy and paste the URL directly in my browser and it works fine. Is there a setting somewhere that might be blocking the URL from within the YouTube widget?

You may want to take your question to the iWeb forum - iWeb is no longer supported by Apple but there are still some iWeb users out there and that's the forum where the experts hang out.
Good luck,

YouTube Widget not displaying video in Preview

Dear All,
I've embedded my YouTube share code within the YouTube widget, and the message comes up: "unable to generate thumbnail". When I got to a live preview of the page/site, the YouTube play box comes up, but says: "an error occurred, please try again later." I'm working with the latest update on Muse on an iMac 10.10.3 with Java script turned on and the latest Adobe Flash player installed. I've read all of the bug reports on the YouTube widget, but they were all over six months old and I assumed the bugs should have been fixed with the latest Muse updates. Any suggestions as to why the widget isn't working and how to work around it? Nothing crashes, but it just isn't bringing up the video.
Thanks.A

Dear All,
I'll answer my own question after a chat session with Adobe support. When you paste in your video ID from your YouTube share box, don't enter the https://youtu.be/ characters -- just enter your video ID characters that follow after. After entering the ID correctly, the YouTube preview opened up without problems in my "Preview Site in Browser screen". Such a little thing to waste so much time over, so I'm posting it for everyone in the future to see and learn from! I was used to just copying and pasting the entire url, but not so here! Good Luck to All!

YouTube Widget and HD

Questions on YouTube widget
1) The HD button in YouTube does not show up in widget until after it has been played once, then it shows you (even if movie is stopped). Logically, the HD button should show up before the viewer 1st clicks to play. Is there a way to make the HD button always show up in widget?
2) the HD button does not show up if widget is sized smaller than some width (say around 325px). This means the widget has to be pretty large, or the HD will never show (before, after or during playback). Is there a way around this?
3) if you click once on the widget, the youtube plays. If you click twice (by accident?) it takes you to youtube website to play. Is there anyway to disable this double click that takes you out of your web sit to youtube?
Thanks
bob

Check it out in a couple of hours if you have a chance.
Robin ~ Glad that worked out — can you provide the URL(s) to your newly embedded HD videos?
By the way, I noticed you've started an iWeb blog with one entry. Before you add more, you may want to consider using a dedicated blogging platform instead — problems with iWeb's blog are a recurring theme on these forums: Lost all blog entries, or all comments, or unable to publish, or unable to open iWeb, etc.
For a success story using a non-iWeb blog hosted on WordPress, see this old thread:
To blog or not to blog
As an alternative to setting up a basic hyperlink to your external blog, you can link to it from iWeb's navigation bar:
Create a blank internal page titled "Blog" (actually you can name the page whatever you want.) Then in that Blog page add an HTML Snippet with the following code:
<script type="text/javascript">
parent.window.location = "http://www.yourblogname.com"; // change this to your own URL
</script>
...Once published, clicking on "Blog" in the navbar will immediately redirect to your external Blog page. (Thanks to Cyclosaurus for the code).

Gives error The requested URL "/", is invalid but I gave a valid format

I gave firefox 3.6.6 what I think is a properly formatted URL, namely http://www.3dfx.com. Firefox changes this to http://www.3dfx.com/ I think the added / indicates it got a response from the URL I gave but then it says The requested URL "/", is invalid.
Reference #9.eb4a595.1295368725.9366789
so it seems like it did not understand the format. By comparison, I enter http://www.purdue.edu and it is changed to http://www.purdue.edu/ and the page is displayed.

Here's a (maybe THE) solution, assuming you have the HTTPS Everywhere add-on installed. If not, then this will probably be of no help at all (sorry).
I was having this exact issue, only when attempting to reach the Washington Post website, which had always worked for me without problems before. I received this error message:
The requested URL "/", is invalid.
To make matters even more confusing, I could reach the desired web site (using the same URL--http://www.washingtonpost.com) on the same PC using Internet Explorer, and on another PC using Firefox.
After an annoying search, Googling this error message, and trying a variety of suggested remedies, I was finally able to resolve the problem by changing the settings for the Firefox add-on HTTPS Everywhere.
In Firefox, click on the Tools menu, then select Add-ons, then click on HTTPS Everywhere and click on the Options button. The HTTPS Everywhere Preferences screen will appear asking, "Which HTTPS redirection rules should apply?"
Uncheck the website you're having the problem with and click OK. That should solve the problem. At least, for me it ended the problem immediately, without restarting Firefox, my PC, my router, or any of the other "remedies" I had tried during my earlier troubleshooting efforts.

I get a pop-up window that says "URL cannot load." What gives?

At random, well known sites, I randomly get a pop-up window that says, "The URL is invalid and cannot be loaded." Firefox does load the site but I must click out of the pop-up to proceed.
What gives? I'm running Windows 7 on a new HP laptop

How to get youtube widget

hi guys my youtube widget dissapeared after i did a hard reset.
How do i get this again, i cannot find it on the ovi store...
cheers

The YouTube client doesn't seem to be available for separate download yet.
That said, I'm not sure if the YouTube app actually does anything more than serve as a URL shortcut into YouTube's mobile page.
It basically fires up the Web browser and takes you to the following address:
http://m.youtube.com/?client=mv-nokia
In the meantime, you could probably create a bookmark with the above URL and it will probably work the same.

"Software setup" asking for registration number, and saying it is invalid

I registered my CS4 with Adobe in August 09 and have been using it ever since. Until today when trying to open InDesign I get a window that says Software Setup wants my registration code. It says I have two options - Use this on a trial basis, or enter registration code, which I did and it says it's invalid.
It seems that InDesign is the only app that won't open and gives me this window. It doesn't say it's an error, just that I need to enter my reg code.
I didn't buy from Adobe, but if it was pirated wouldn't they have been able to tell when I registered it?
I started a case with Adobe support, but from what I'm reading I don't expect much!
Any Ideas?

Thanks Michael,
I have tried this tool three times and no luck. Adobe says my software came with a pc/laptop that I purchased and I need to get help from the vendor I bought it from. Only I didn't buy a pc or laptop from the vendor. I have emailed the vendor, it's an online store, and they haven't responded, yet.
I have reopened the case with Adobe. Just hope I don't have to buy ID again!

I purchased photoshop elements 8 on line in 2010. I recently switched to a new desktop computer. Photoshop asked for my serial number. I entered the correct serial number (obtained from Adobe). It says it is invalid. How do I get this corrected so I can use the product I purchased?

Hi Rosera,
This is bad and I am sorry to hear that you are running into these issues.
Let me connect with you, so right now, the current state is that you have installed copy of PSE 8 in trial on your windows 7 machine, and when you are trying to enter the serial number from your PSE 8 Box, it is saying the serial number to be invalid?
It might sound pretty obvious, but please make sure that you are entering the serial number correctly and of PSE 8(in case you bought a PEPE box)?
Have you tried the steps mentioned below by Barbara?
If possible, you can send me the serial number through PRIVATE MESSAGE and I can check it on my end that whether the serial number is indeed invalid or that the issue is with your machine?
Regards,
Ankush

I changed my user name and password in Itunes, when I use my phone or Ipad, it askes for the password for the old username password it says it's invalid. I try to delete the Icloud account but it won't let me- Help

I changed my username and Password in Itunes on my computer. Now when I use my Iphone, Ipad, it asks for the password for the old username. when I type the password for that old user name, it says it's invalid. I figured I needed to delete the old Icloud account from my Iphone and Ipad, but they ask for the old password for the Old username. I type it in and it says invalid. As of now, I can't use Icloud or Itunes on either the Ipad or Iphone.... Help!
<Edited by Host>

If the old ID ("username") is an earlier version of your current ID, temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

HT4157 When I click "view account" I get an error message that says "SIM is invalid; please use different SIM." What next?

I am trying to activate a first gen iPad with WiFi and 3G. When I go to Settings, Cellular Data, and View Account to activate the iPad, I get an error message that says, "SIM is Invalid. Pleae use a different SIM."
There is a SIM PIN option, and when I click that it asks for the PIN. I don't have a PW for the SIM (the iPad was a slightly used gift, and none of the paperwork came with the iPad).
Any ideas on how to activate the iPAD?
Thanks!

Did you check your user name and password in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap your email account, tap SMTP, then tap the primary server name. Make sure the settings there are correct.

WSDL URL is invalid or the WSDL file is not valid or incorrect

Hi All,
I am using Oracle Soa Suite 11g. I have got Oracle database, Oracle weblogic admin server, Oracle SOA server all installed on my laptop.
I have deployed a sample BPEL process. When I am trying to test the process it is giving an error
"Either the WSDL URL is invalid or the WSDL file is not valid or incorrect. - WSDLException: faultCode=PARSER_ERROR: Failed to read wsdl file at: "http://KSNPavan-PC:8001/soa-infra/services/default/MyHumanWorkFlowSample1Project/vacationrequestprocess_client_ep?WSDL", caused by: java.net.ConnectException. : java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect "
Now, when I change the url address to
"http://localhost:8001/soa-infra/services/default/MyHumanWorkFlowSample1Project/vacationrequestprocess_client_ep?WSDL"
(Please note the difference in host name from KSNPavan-PC to localhost.)
and click parse wsdl it is working well. I mean the test page is opening successfully and I am able to test the service.
Testing the service from admin console is fine. Now I want to use this BPEL process service in another BPEL process. So, when I am piciking this service wsdl in JDeveloper it is throwing me the same error and I am unable to go ahead.
Can anyone please tell me whetherI have to set property in the admin server console so that it always take local host in all the wsdl urls and solve my problem.
Thank you,
KSN Pavan.

Hi All,
My problem has got solved with the help of my colleagues. Actually the problem was that the host name KSNPavan-PC is not there in the C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts file. I Added the host name in the file with the IP same as that of local host and everything isworking well now.
Thank you,
KSN Pavan
