A powerpoint uploaded on OneDrive will not play in Firefox

I have uploaded a powerpoint on OneDrive that I want to share with others.
When one clicks the link it brings up a message that says
"this video can't be played in this browser. Try using a different browser or downloading the video and playing it in a video app"
Yet the previous video did play. Same system to create the video, same computer, same type of video.
It is NOT practical to tell me to go make adjustments on my computer, as those contacts that I am sending it to, will not go through all the trouble to do that, nor will they download it and use a video app.
I have tried both a powerpoint show as well as a windows media video.
I have tried to down load the firefox PowerPoint plug in.
I am not committed to using OneDrive if you can suggest another way to massively distribute a PowerPoint show
of how to put it on a link on a website.
Thanks,
Rayda

This does not help because I have the very same type of video posted a few months ago that plays fine. Plus as I stated, the people you send it to are NOT NOT going to go to Mozilla support and see why it don't play they are simply going to ignore the video and not watch it. Kills the reason to send it.
It is a marketing PowerPoint and is going out to people who don't have a solid relationship or reason to watch it.
It simply need to come up and play and not have a dozen excuses from FireFox why it don't play. Or several steps to go through to get it to play.
The original one still does play.

Yet this new one does not play

same computer
same Powerpoint system
same way it was recorded and saved
Same way it was uploaded on OneDrive
Same version it was saved as
yet Firefox will not play it, it will not play on my computer
and not on 3 other team members computer
Chrome will play it fine
So what did FireFox change so it is no longer compatible?
It should NOT need to be a fix that every person has to go fix something with their FireFox to get it to play. That is not going to happen.

  • Pandora will not play in Firefox, but it will play in Chrome and IE.

    Pandora will not play in Firefox, but it will play in Chrome and IE. In Firefox, it loads the initial Pandora page, which just says Pandora. In Chrome and IE, it then loads the player automatically. In Firefox it just sits there on the initial page that just says "Pandora," and it never loads the player. My Flash Player is updated, and I cleared all the caches... not sure what the problem is. Can anyone help?

    Is your version of Firefox the latest one?

  • Video will not Play in Firefox 7.0.1

    I was getting a blank screen and video would not play. I tried URL Below in IE Explore 32bit and 64bit and video played fine.
    I first disabled Flash Player in Firefox went to http://www.weather.com/weather/videos/news-41/top-stories-169/cat-stares-down-mountain-lion-22257 video !
    Video would still not play. So I went to control panel in Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit Programs and Features and removed Flash Player, Note there where several version, one was 10. something and the newer one 11.0.1.152. After renewing I again went to link above and was advised I needed to install Flash Player. I re-Installed from Adobe and verified that it was installed in Windows and received no video again. Note there are 2 versions installed one for 64bit and one for 32 bit but both have almost the same name. One has X64bit and the other has 64 bit. It is noted at Adobe the 64 bit contains both 32bit and 64bit install. I still can view video after re-install in IE 32 and 64 with no problem. Same thing happens at this URL that I view all the time http://www.ky3.com/weather/ video is under Latest Video Forecast. It plays in IE fine.

  • Netflix and Youtube will not play on Firefox but I can still hear sound and can pause with the space bar. Works fine on Internet Explorer.

    All of a sudden last night after Firefox restarted after an update I am no longer able to play Netflix or Youtube. I can hear the sounds from whatever I select to play but the browser is black and I can even pause using the space bar but no interaction with the cursor. Both Netflix and Youtube work fine on Internet Explorer... I tried updating plug ins, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling plug ins and I even uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox itself but nothing has helped. Not sure what steps to take next...

    Hello,
    Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
    To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
    #Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
    #Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
    #Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
    # Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. <br/> <br/>[[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] <br/>
    # Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
    # Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
    # Restart Firefox.
    This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
    Does this solve the problem? Let us know.

  • Many youtube videos will not play in Firefox - I get the error message - "no video with supported format and MIME type found"

    this is a recent problem - the videos play in Chrome and Explorer, but not in Firefox

    This happens if Firefox uses the HTML5 media player and can't play the media file.

  • Changes to uploaded website colors will not change on firefox, although it showa on internet explorer

    I uploaded my website with filezilla. Color changes were made. Om firefox the old clors still show, even after refresh. On internet explorer the website displays the correct colors.

    I expect this is due to the old version of the website being saved in Firefox's cache rather than being downloaded from the internet.
    You can refresh a web page without using cache (full page refresh) by clicking Ctrl + F5 on the keyboard.
    If that doesn't work the clear the cache using the instructions here: [[How to clear the Firefox cache]].
    Also I notice that you are using Firefox v23. This is now an outdated version. To get the latest security fixes I recommend upgrading to v24. See here for more: [[Update Firefox to the latest version]]

  • .flv will not play in Firefox

    I have two pages on my site, both with videos inserted through dreamweaver. One plays wonderfully in all browsers. The other plays in all but firefox. Just a white screen.
    I have tweaked and reinstalled on and on, but morbidity, despair and desperation is setting in.
    Help would be great.

  • Imbeded powerpoints will not play

    Powerpoints that are imbedded in school presentations will not play.  Firefox and Safari both say that I need addition plug-ins, but do not list them.  I am current with Adobe, Java and Silverlight...don't know what to do.

    My gut feeling is that only Avid Media Composer will work with the OMFI clips, as that is a proprietary Avid format. If there's a way to use them outside of Avid, I just don't know about it.
    The DVCPRO 50 clips should be less of an issue with Premiere, using the correct timeline preset. (Does CS4 come with a DVCPRO 50 preset?)

  • HT204406 I recently uploaded a live recording to match. Plays when I listen in "recently added" playlist, but will not play in a new playlist "ineligible" cloud symbol appears

    I recently uploaded a live recording to match and it appears (and plays) under "recently added" on the left menu. When I create a new playlist for this music it won't play and has the "ineligible" cloud symbol with slash through it. It must be in the cloud as it's playing now, but the content will not play if moved from "recently added" into a playlist. I'm puzzled. Any help?
    Bit rate is 192 kbps
    it is an mpeg file
    Thanks in advance!

    I just went back and used Tunesify to convert from mp3 to aac format and it's working now. I've added over 20K to my match library and this is the 1st time something like thas has happened.

  • Published as Flash, Flash will not play in PowerPoint

    I have published a Captivate Movie as a Flash file. When I

    Hi mmmurphy1 and welcome to our community
    When you click it from Explorer, do you get the generic
    Windows prompt where Windows is asking you what to do? If so, just
    try pointing at Internet Explorer and clicking the check box for
    using it always for this option. See if that helps.
    Hope so... Rick
