After update to Firefox 8, the pause function on videos no longer works

I updated both my desktop and laptop to Firefox 8.
The laptop is a Toshiba and it's OS is Win 7 with Kapersky AV. The laptop has no problems.
When using Firefox on the desktop, which is a clone, with Win XP as the OS, and Norton AV, all up to date, the pause function on videos often does not work.
I have been able to play the same videos on this desktop computer using IE 8 and pause them with no problem.
I need to have the pause function work, because I am interrupted a lot, and it can take me 3 hrs. to watch a one hour video due to that.
Can anyone help? If not, I'll just have to use IE, though I much prefer Firefox. Thanks.

The Statusbar is gone and the "lock" with it, as of Firefox 4.0. Security information about a web page is shown by the Site Identity Button.<br />
The old padlock could give users a false sense that a site is secure by not supplying all of the information about a site and only showed that there is a secure connection that didn't guarantee that you are connected to the right server. The Site Identity Button was introduced in Firefox 3.0 to show more complete "identity" information for HTTPS web pages. <br />

You can add a padlock to the location bar with the Padlock add-on- https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/padlock-icon

    Have you tried going to System Preferences > Spotlight > Privacy and dragging your hard drive into the box then drag it back. That will trigger a re-index.

    If you successfullt restore to factory defaults/new iPod and still have the problem then it is likely a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Why, after installing iTunes 11.1.4.62, do my videos no longer work?

    Why, after installing iTunes 11.1.4.62, do my videos no longer work? Running Windows 7, fully updated, on a PC.

    I did the whole uninstall/reinstall thing because I got the Msvr80.dll issue and got rewarded with this new problem! VERY Frustrated to say the least!

    Facebook videos are still working for me in the Facebook App (using iOS 7.0.6).
    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).
    No data will be lost.

  • After updating to Firefox 6, the menubaritems are in English and "History" gives the Bookmarkslibrary

    In my previous version of Firefox (5) i used to have all items in the menubar in Dutch. After updating to version 6, these items are in English and I have not found out how to change that.
    Furthermore, asking for "History/show all history" brings me to the Bookmarkslibrary....

  • After update to Firefox 9 the browser cannot load any webpage.

    When I try to visit any webpage there is an error message saying that Firefox cannot connect to the server and suggesting that I check the internet connection, regardless of what webpage I try to visit. I am using Internet Explorer right now to be able to report this problem...

    Thanks! After rebooting and updating Norton Internet Security the problem was fixed.

  • After updating my 3GS with ios5, my BMW usb interface no longer works

    After updating my iPhone 3gs with ios 5, my BMW usb interface no longer works.  I can no longer see my music on the screen and cannot control my music.  I tried my old Nano in my car and that works so I'm thinking it must be something with ios 5.  Any suggestions?

    Update:  I was able to resolve the problem by re-syncing the music on my iPhone in iTunes and then shutting down the phone and restarting it.  After that, I connected the usb cable from my car to the phone and it worked. 

  • After updating to Firefox 4 the browser will not open

    I updated to the new firefox 4. Since then the browser will not open. I tried uninstalling it and reinstalling but this has not resolved the issue.

    I couldn't get it to start at first. Then I found a forum that hade other issues with plugin and firefox 4 where the solution was to start firefox 4 in 32 bit mode and not in 64bit mode. After that it works nice for me.
    It might also be useful to change the setting for the time that scripts are allowed to run.
    dom.max_script_run_time should be set to higher number than 80 according to the support.
    Good luck!

  • After updating to Firefox 4, the font size in my gmails are smaller. I need to get the larger size back. How?

    On both the listing of gmails and the size of the font when gmails are opened, the font size is smaller than prior to upgrading to Firefox 4. I did not change any settings. I cannot see where I can change this back to larger fonts. Help?

  • After updating to Firefox 5.0, my email/webmail account isn't working. How can I revert to the previous version of Firefox?

    The email account that I am having trouble with is [email protected] I can't open any emails or perform any other function (purge, label, discard, view, etc) I can send an email though.

    This might have been helpful if it was in English and not in German. . . at least it looks like German.

  • After updating to latest version of Java (7.10) it no longer works and JRE has disappeared from my plugins list

    On checking my add-ons and plugins I attempted to update Java Run Time to latest version as firefox said it was outdated.
    I tried installing new version JRE 7.10 manually and through firefox (which said the installation was successful). When testing it, I get told that Java is not working and that a plug in is missing. Can not check whether the new plugin is enabled as JRE has disappeared from the plugins tab (Only Deployment Toolkit appears).
    The Java control console says that it was successfully installed in all browsesr. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Java 3 times and keep getting the same result. Java is working fine on chrome and IE so problem must be with FF.

    i have already tried installing the offline version but Java SE7U10 does not show in the add-ons menu and Java doesn't work

  • I have duplicated apps; safari, calculator, dvd player, dictionary & ical post Lion update. One of the duplicates in each case no longer works and won't let me remove them either with a message that states the os still needs them. Any ideas chaps? cheers

     

    Does the ext directory have the php_oci8.dll? In the original steps the PHP dir is renamed. In the given php.in the extension_dir looks like it has been updated correctly. Since PHP distributes php_oci8.dll by default I reckon there would be a very good chance that the problem was somewhere else. Since this is an old thread I don't think we'll get much value from speculation.
