70% CPU load while viewing youtube video.

Can people check the CPU load for their browser under Activity Monitor while watching a youtube video? Mine is running at 70% which prevents me from doing that while on battery. I believe that is the reason some people's batteries are running down too fast. I wonder if leopard is having issues with Flash videos. Thanks! Bill

Just checked. My CPUs stay at about 30% when watching YouTube videos. (Which is still ridiculous, considering, but it doesn't seem any different than before Leopard.)

My macbook keeps crashing while viewing youtube videos

I have version 10.4.11 Each time I try to watch a Youtube video it will shut down after only a few minutes of viewing. What can I do to correct this?

The whole computer shuts down, or just the browser? If it's the whole computer then it is probably overheating (video places heavy demand on the CPU). There's a few utilities that were just mentioned in another post very, very recently you can use to monitor temperatures (if your computer supports them) [http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2359432]. Check to make sure your computer is being adequately vented (no dust, not sitting on lap or surface blocking vents).
If it is just the browser then it's probably something else, but let us know which.

HELP! Problem viewing Youtube videos.

Hello,
I am having problems viewing Youtube videos. Everything was great until the other day. I have not changed anything on my computer to create this problem.
Diagnosis:
when viewing videos straight from youtube.com with Safari, it loads and starts to play the video & audio. after the first second the visual video disappears and the audio keeps playing. I can scroll throughout the video, but no picture.
I do not understand, I have updated everything and still same outcome. It was working the other day fine and then boom, no video. WHAT SHOULD I DO?
Thank you for you help,
B

Sounds like a problem with Flash. I'd recommend visiting Adobe's web site and updating to the most current version for OS X.

The whole screen fluctuates contrast continuously while watching youtube videos on full screen.The odd thing is it only happens if they are on full screen,and as soon as i switch the video to window mode,the very high contrast fades aways slowly.Please help i dont know what to do.Auto-Brightness is off.Also when if i pri tscreen,th high contrast does not show,the photo looks normally.

I have this problem too. It's really annoying, especially when I'm viewing movies from iTunes. Does anyone know how to fix this?
I'm using an iPad air with iOS 8.1.3

I have a macbook pro running snow leopard. Just recently I cannot view youtube videos and other online videos. I recently updated my flashplayer plugin and I believe that is the problem. Is the latest flashplayer plugin compatible with 10.6.8?

I have a macbook pro running snow leopard. Just recently I cannot view youtube videos and other online videos. I recently updated my flashplayer plugin and I believe that is the problem. Is the latest flashplayer plugin compatible with 10.6.8? If this is so, I need to find an older flash player plugin to reinstall. I do not want to upgrade from 10.6.8 at this time because I have 18 yrs. worth of financial records on Quicken that I have read will not work with Lion and I've read bad things about running music programs on Maverick.

1) Quicken 2007 for Intel (Snow Leopard, Lion, Mt. Lion and Mavericks) is a full featured app that can be downloaded from Intuit for $15 and will work with your data file if you are using Quicken 2005, 2006 or 2007 (if you version is earlier, let me know for more instructions on easy conversion):
http://quicken.intuit.com/personal-finance-software/quicken-2007-osx-lion.jsp
2) Partition your hard drive, or add an external hard drive and install Mavericks there and "dual-boot" to operate your music programs in Snow Leopard and experiment with them in Mavericks.
DO NOT install Mavericks over Snow Leopard!

Error 404 when trying to view youtube videos

Recently when I try to view youtube videos, I get error 404. I updated to version 6.0 tonight and now I get error code 404 and then Fire fox crashes. I send a crash report each time. I tried opening Fire fox in safe mode. That didn't work.

Maybe not as many people reply as you think should because this site doesn't freaking work either!
Took me ten minutes to log in! Kept getting stupid error messages telling me this site is undergoing maintenance. Whatever.
Same exact problem here, but Chrome DOES NOT work. Changing DNS servers DOES NOT work either. It doesn't work for a lot of people.

Safety Mode - unable to view youtube videos

Hello everyone
We are having an issue with being unable to view youtube videos.
The message comes up saying that we can not view the video because the computer is in the safety mode.
I have a K9 filter on the laptop and I am pretty sure that what I am trying to view is not at all risky so this is a bit of a pain and inconvenience. How do we exit the safety mode please? And what could be the reason that the computer is in the safety mode. Thank you.
As well as that, if I wanted to take my laptop to be looked at and to have a bit of a spring clean where would I take it? We have had it for three years now.
Thank you.

Hi
Can you please tell us which notebook model do you have and which operating system do you use?
Do you use original OS version that you got with your machine or some own OS installation?

How to view YouTube video through search engines

Hi.
Since upgrading it IOS5 I have been unable to view YouTube videos if searched via a search engine and then clicked on the link. It gives However if searched for the videos in youTube it seems to play. Any ideas?

Flash Player version 10.1.102.64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users. However, this Flash version won't work for many videos on Facebook, YouTube and other sites. Adobe's latest version, 10.2.x or later, is only for Intel Macs. Adobe will not provide a newer Flash version for PPC Macs.
The message requesting that you download Adobe Flash Player takes you to Flash Player requiring an Intel processor. Doesn't work on a PowerPC processor. I found a hack, installed it & it works with Firefox, TenFourFox & Safari.
Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.

Stop quicktime player as default to view youtube video

Hi,
My Mac recently updated and whenever I open the video from youtube, the quicktime player will automaticly run the video and say the file not found.
How to unselect quicktime player as default to view youtube video?
Thanks
Trang

If you are opening a Youtube video from your desktop do the following:
Highlight your file>File>Get Info>
In the Get Info window, scroll down to "Open with:"
Select the application you want to open the file with.
Click the "Change All..." button if you want to "Use this application to open all documents like this.”
==========================
Short cut:
Control mouse click (right mouse click if available), Open With...-> Other
Pick an app you want to open the video, and make sure to check Always Open With before hitting Open.
Thanks to a brody for the above short cut.
=============
If you are viewing the video on YouTube's site, then the changes can be done through your browser Preferences to select a default video viewer. However, you have not mentioned which browser you are using to view videos.
