ABC Full Episode Player

I would REALLY appreciate any help, because I am losing my mind with this stupid thing.
I've checked/done any of the basic things I've read in the forums - making sure all of the java is enabled, etc., but I'm not computer-savvy enough to randomly go messing with a lot of things based on other posts.
If you go to the ABC Website, you can watch free episodes of some of the ABC shows, but first you need to download/install the ABC.com Full Episode Player. I get to the screen where I hit 'Begin Install', it says it's loading, but then NOTHING happens. I've let it sit forever and ever and nothing happens. When I look at the Activity Window, there are no errors or issues showing up, but nothing is downloading either.
I don't what to do???
It's driving me nuts!
The website for the episodes and downloader is:
http://abc.go.com/player/index?pn=index
or if you just went to www.abc.com you could find your way to it by clicking on 'free episodes', etc.
If anyone can help me out - THANK YOU!!
!!!

Amory,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Although your problem may appear to be similar to the Original Poster (OP), it will be helpful for continuity purposes to start your very own thread. That will prevent confusion and allow you to get personal attention for your specific problem.
If this post is not helpful, start a new thread and thoroughly explain your problem and the steps you have taken to attempt resolution.
In order to get a reasonable answer for your question, it will also be necessary for you to complete your hardware and software profiles in "My Settings."
In the meantime, these are the plug-in removal instructions from the Player Installation Helpful Hints:
Mac OS X
To remove the plug-in from your computer, follow these instructions:
1. Click on Finder.
2. Select the Home Account from the Finder window.
3. Select Library from the right-hand pane.
4. Select Internet Plug-ins from the right-hand pane.
5. Click on QuantumMedia Player in the right-hand pane of Finder and drag it to the trash can.
After uninstalling the player, you can return to the new player environment to test the installation process again.

Leopard and ABC streaming video player incompatibility?

Since installing Leopard (clean install) on an iMac G5, the quality of video streaming from ABC has deteriorated -- it is now stops and stalls. Does anyone know if there is some incompatibility between Leopard and the ABC episode player? Or are there some settings I can change to fix this problem.
This is not Internet congestion as I have tried it at all times of the day, and also the ABC episode player works well in Tiger (running on my other G5).

I've had decent luck with MLB.TV with the following work around. I just remove the Windows Media Plug-in from the /Library/Internet Plug-Ins. Then when you try to watch (or listen to) a game, you get a message saying that Safari isn't supported, but you do get the option to "Proceed". After hitting "Proceed" the page starts to load and then you get the message saying something along the lines of "Safari can't display the content, would you like Windows Media Player to try. Click OK and the stand-alone Windows Media Player should open the stream. And from the app, you can resize the window. A bit clunky, and it probably won't allow for the soon to be released Multi-game Mosaic option, but it works - even on a 3 year old iMac

Can't view full episodes of CBS shows

I have Quicktime 7.1.6. Attempts to view full tv episodes result in an error message: Don't have MIME plugin for audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin so I can't view.
I downloaded flip4mac and still the same message.
How to fix?
IMac 17-in,Intel Core Duo Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Thanks for the link. Ok, I watched the full episode (the one I missed) of CSI-NY.
You probably need to make sure you have the latest versions of Adobe Flash Player Software and/or go to:
QuickTime Preferences > Advanced > MIME Stettings > Miscellaneous.
Deactivate the "Flash Media" option.
This tells the browser not to to display Flash Media and lets the newly installed Adobe software work its magic.
Did you repair permissions & restart after installing RealPlayer? If not, make sure you do so after installing the Flash Player (if you do not already have same).

Apple tv, Youtube and CBS full episodes.

So Youtube recently announced that it has partnered with CBS to start showing full episodes of a few shows as a trial, to see if there is a market.
It's sort of the same situation as Hulu offers; You have two or three ticks in the show where it makes you watch a commercial and you can not fast forward through them. As someone who has Hulu access high on his wish list for Apple Tv. (I purchase plenty of shows through iTunes too. I just wish there was an alternative for times where I just want a show in the background and for that 1.99 just isn't worth it but an old episode of the A-Team with 3 or 4 commercials is. Like many others, if I had the option for both purchased shows with zero commercials and free shows with mandatory commercials, I would cancel my cable subscription.)
Anyway, I wanted to see if anyone has had any luck with being able to access these "Full Episodes" from the Youtube app on their Apple Tv's or if they've heard any information regarding this working in the future.

I had the same idea. I've already canceled my cable (as low as I can anyway.) I've been watching via my macbook for months now and it's great. I had a very busy September and missed the opening weeks of every show. But with my MacBook I was able to convert the DVI to HDMI and display all the sites on my 61" TV. IMDB has made my job of finding shows much easier in finding episodes and watching them in proper order.
My complaint was that even though I was watching Hulu in full screen and it was awesome with minimal commercial interruption, I had to keep getting up to load the next episode. But maybe it's good to stretch your legs once an hour. If AppleTV would become a portal or delivery mechanism for Hulu and Joost like it is for YouTube, it would make those sites much more viable. Additionally, they might be able to integrate with iTunes whereas if you just saw a hilarious episode of Family Guy and you just had to own it, you could click a button and buy it from iTunes.
Shows I've caught up on using my MacBook:
The Unit (from IMDB, CBS.com)
Heroes (from IMDB, Hulu)
Bones (from Hulu)
House (from Hulu and "not Hulu" for last season I missed)
Dexter (not CBS.com)
Weeds (not CBS.com)
The Office (from Hulu)
Family Guy (from Hulu)
Daily Show (from Hulu)
Colbert Report (from Hulu)
and now I'll get to watch "My Own Worst Enemy" which looks awesome.
I buy LOST on iTunes cause of my obsession with it, but I know you can watch any ABC shows on ABC.com.

Apple TV and full episodes of Smithsonian are not playing

Is anyone else having problems viewing full episodes for the Smithsonian channel?

It cannot and will not mirror a PC/Macs primary display output.
A Mac Mini while more expensive is still relatively small form factor and perhaps could be connected permanently to your setup with a wirless keyboard and mouse?

How can I buy full episode of tv shows if I don't have storage room on my ipad

How can I buy full episodes of a tv show if I don't have storage to download the full show. When I try too, it pops up I don't have the storage room. I can buy one at a time, and delete the sows I already watched. Thanks

How much space is Other using? You may be able to reduce.
How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?
http://tinyurl.com/85w6xwn
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

Cannot download full Flash Player version

I have Windows 8.1 (64-bit) using Internet Explorer. (version 11). I attempt to open a downloaded PDF file but it comes up with a black page with the following prompt box: To view Flash technology content in this PDF file, install this version of Flash Player that supports Adobe Reader. I proceed and the Adobe site notes that I need a full Flash player to view this content. I then attempt to download the Flash Payer Installer for Windows (Active X and Plugin). I then get this message when downloading Active X: install_flash_player_ax_exe couldn't be downloaded. I also get a similar message for Plugin (install_flash_player_exe couldn't be downloaded. I then went to Flash Player Help and checked if Flash Player was installed and I have version 15.0.0. I then tested the Flash Player and the animation box worked. Then I enabled Flash Player, Disabled Active X Filtering and updated Internet Explorer to get latest Flash Player version. Nothing works. I am at a lost on how to get this "full" version of Flash Player that is required for me to view my file. Any ideas on what can be done to fix this?

To view PDFs with Rich Media Content you will need to install the Flash Player plugin; you can get it from http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/latest/help/install_flash_player.exe

Is it possible to watch full episodes of tv shows, such as The Daily Show, on my Apple TV? Similar to going to Comedy Centerals web site and selecting which full episode you want to watch.

Full Screen Player Crashes/Quits in Win Server 2003

I have an application that runs as a projector and is meant to run full screen in a kiosk. However, when the app is expanded to full screen it crashes and I get an error message of:

I purchased an episode but it is only showing 30 seconds rather than the full 42 minutes. How do I get it to play the full episode as I can't seem to download it again?

I downloaded a tv epsiode, but it doesn't show the entire 42 minutes. All I get is a clip of 30 seconds, rather than the entire 42 minute episode. I have tried to download the episode again, but it wont allow me to and I have also tried to download the series, but if I do that it wont deliver the epsiode that I already have suposedly downloaded. Anyone have any idea how to help?
Thanks,
