Any Flash Videos don't work in Safari 5.1 anymore...

Hi guys,
I did a fresh install of OS X Lion, and everything was working fine so far.
I even didn't have to install flash or so, the YouTube videos were working fine (CPU hungry as usual, but it was working).
Today, it suddently stoped to work. I tried to uninstall Flash, reinstall it but I can't get any flash videos... from any website.
However, everything works fine on Chrome... so it's weird.
The only thing I could think right now is the fact I did replace some Quicktime codec to add some format... Unfortunately, I didn't save the ones I replaced
It seems to be the only operation I did since the time it was working fine.
1) Can someone confirm me that quicktime codec could mess up the Flash video playback in Safari and not in Chrome?
2) Does anyone has the original quicktime codec to download? (from your /System/Library/Quicktime and from /Library/Quicktime folders)
Any help would be very welcomed
Thanks,
Phil

With help of someone else and hours and hours of hard fighting, I finally got it to work again by downloading and installing the new Flash 11 beta, available on Adobe Labs website...
I don't know if it did "fix" anything, but at least it works again...

  • Embedded Flash videos don't work

    Since updating Firefox to 36, embedded Flash videos don't work. HTML5 and Flash videos on YouTube work fine. I have Click-To-Play enabled (disabling it didn't help too), but instead of a grey area with the message I just see a black area where the video is supposed to be. Does anyone else have this problem?

    If you have problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions then check this:
    * see if there are updates for your graphics drive drivers
    '''https://support.mozilla.org/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration'''
    * disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)

  • Flash videos don't work with PepperFlash disabled (but with system plugin enabled) on Chrome!

    Hello everyone,
    Basically, Google Chrome lags a lot when I use PepperFlash and so I have heard that disabling it and using the system flash will have better performance. I have done this but when I disable PepperFlash, the flash videos don't work as it says flash player has crashed. Also, I would like to resolve the lag and bad performance with flash videos on chrome because the video playback on Internet Explorer is a lot better than Chrome(Never thought I would have to say that) atm. A possible solution might be to install 32-Bit Chrome instead
    Summary:
    Flash videos lag(most likely due to PepperFlash being used according to other people)
    When PepperFlash is disabled, the system flash plugin does not work in chrome as it apparently crashes every time.
    I would like help on how to resolve the bad performance and be able to use the system flash plugin to have no lag on videos and livestreams.
    Thanks,
    Talha

  • Embedded YouTube videos don't work on Safari on the iPhone.

    Sometime after June 15, 2013, embedded YouTube videos stopped working on web pages on Safari on the iPhone (iOS6).   They work on Safari on the Mac and they work in the iOS YouTube app.   I see the preview frame and the play button, but when clicking the play button, the frame goes black and nothing ever plays.    This worked up until 6/15 and the pages haven't changed.      Did Apple do something to stop them from working on the iPhone recently?

    You may have turned off an option in Flash preferences to not allow sites to store Flash cookies on your machine. Some videos made in Flash and served from third-party (non-YouTube) pages expect to be able to store Flash cookies, so the videos may not work with this Flash option turned off.
    Go to [https://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager03.html Flash Global Storage Settings Panel] which is served from Adobe/Macromedia's site and check the "Allow third-party Flash content..." box, and the box for "Store common Flash components..." where you can then manage sites you have already visited. You'll have to reload the video page after you change this setting.
    Also, leave site feedback on those sites where you experienced the problems encouraging them to use HTML5 for serving video content instead of the proprietary Flash format.

  • Some flash videos don't work.

    I can't see video from cnet, science.discovery, marketwatch etc.
    Youtube, yahoo most others OK.
    Everything is updated, shockwave 10.2. I am using Norton 360.
    It's the same for Chrome and IE9 though so I'm not blaming FF.

    ok ok
    I disabled firewall which - for some weird reason- allow it to play in Firefox. Videos played in IE & Chrome- but not in Firefox, until I disabled Firewall..weird.

    ''Duplicate post, continue here - [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/934607]''

    Can you open up your Real Player and tell me what version you have? I think Real Player 15.0.6 is supposed to fix this problem. There was a conflict between Real Player and Flash this whole summer that broke Flash videos. Real Player released a update that might help in your case.
    If that doesn't help, I think a addon might be to blame here. So do this:
    <br> '''Firefox button <img src=https://support.mozilla.org/media/uploads/images/2012-03-27-09-22-48-1204f1.png> > Help > Troubleshooting Information'''
    <br> (or '''Tools > Help > Troubleshooting Information''')
    Then click the "Copy all to clipboard" button then paste it here. It will tell us what addons you have installed and I can see which one might be causing problems.

  • Flash video has not worked with Firefox browser for years. When will you fix this?

    Anyone who uses Firefox browser (for Windows or for Mac) knows that flash video playback ceased working sometime around Firefox ver 13 and has not worked since.
    The Mozilla people say it is Adobe's fault - instead of fixing Firefox.
    They say roll back to Adobe Flash version 10.
    This solves the video problem, but then, any other services that depend on the latest Flash build, quit working properly.
    This situation leaves millions of Firefox users in perpetual frustration. We can't use our browser of choice to view any web video built with Flash.
    This is so unacceptable. I am unable to understand why Adobe and Firefox don't get together and iron out whatever code incompatibility is causing this.
    I would really like to hear Adobe's explanation for this.

    Uh... I don't know what planet you posted this from, but Flash video has worked flawlessly with Firefox for hundreds of millions of users here on earth, without any gaps since Firefox was still called Mozilla.
    For the record, I have Firefox 28 with Flash Player 13 installed on:
    WIndows XP (SP3-64bit)
    Windows Vista Ultimate (SP2-64bit)
    Windows 7 Ultimate (SP1-64bit)
    Windows 8 Enterprise (64bit-2 machines) 
    Windows 8.1 Enterprise (64 bit)
    OS 0.6.8 Server
    OS10.7.5
    OS10.8.5 
    OS10.9.2
    And I've had Firefox with Flash Player since 2003 on both OS formats. I've never had a compatibility problem.
    I also use Chrome, IE, Opera, Safari and a few other browsers you probably never heard of (like SeaMonkey, Maxthon, Waterfox, iCab, OmniWeb)... Flash works in all of them.
    I'd have to say the problem is with your system specifically, because if it was a Firefox/Flash compatibility problem, there would have been hundreds of millions of complaints about it, for over a decade. That... just isn't the case.

  • Not all flash videos on websites work

    Hi guys,
    First off all, I'm really excited because I made the switch to Apple and Leopard. Yay! But I have one issue I can't figure out.
    Not all flash videos on websites work, for example: www.x17online.com
    Sometimes it's a blank square and sometimes I see an image but I can't play the video. I have flash installed so what's wrong?
    Any help is appreciated!

    Got a mbpro 2.4 multi touch, 2gb 250gb safari 3.1.x
    Video glitches in flash in safari [not in ffox 2.x] !
    The video:

    Seems like build up problems...

  • Flash buttons don't work

    I created my template in Dreamweaver and 9 other pages from
    the template. Now I inserted flash buttons in the original template
    and linked them to all other pages. Buttons work in the original
    template but not in any of other pages, even though I updated the
    pages with all the changes. What am I doing wrong??? I am losing my
    mind here.
    Any help appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Flash buttons don't work in any real sense of the word,
    anyhow. Why are you
    using them?
    If you want to use Flash for navigation, consider this -
    1. Some people don't have Flash installed - what do they do?
    2. Search engines don't parse Flash links - your site will
    not be spidered
    3. Screen assistive devices don't parse Flash links - what
    will those users
    do?
    4. DW cannot maintain links within a Flash movie, so if you
    move or rename
    a linked file, your navigation will break - what will you do?
    It's usually a very bad idea for these reasons...
    This problem is due to the fact that you are placing the
    buttons into a
    Template file. In this case, and assuming you want to inherit
    all the
    problems, make the links to the buttons ROOT RELATIVE.

  • HT5655 Flash still doesn't work with Safari.

    I've done this repeatedly. Flash still doesn't work with Safari. It does work with Firefox and Chrome.
    I deleted the Flash plugin from Library>Internet Plugins. That didn't solve the problem either.
    What can I try next? Thanks.

  • Behavior drag a layer don't work with safari 2

    The behavior "move (drag) a layer" for Dreamweaver 8.02 don't
    work with Safari 2 (it's work with safari 1). Is there an issue for
    this problem ?
    Thanks
    Emmanuel

    Yep - fails in Safari2.
    It's hard to know who is responsible for that - I'm guessing
    it's Apple,
    since it works on FF2/Mac....

  • N73 Video Don't Work After Upgrade

    Help please, i updated my N73 OS from V3.0638.0.0.1 to V3.0704.1.0.1. Now the video don't work anymore, it can't playback what is shot! anybody have suggestions?
    Also, N73 seem to be very slow, how can i possibly have it more responsive? Right now, there is an irritating lag whenver you go to the diff functions.
    Help would really be appreciated.

    If the lag presists after upgrading to version 3.x.05.x. try going to the camera settings and choosing to save on the PHONE MEMORY and try if it lags, IF NOT than memory card needs to be replaced with a faster one. If its still laggy then i don't know

  • Why Flash and videos don't work after 10.6.7 update?

    After os update Flash, Shockwave and videos stopped working on Safari. Also Flash CS5, Flash Builder 4 and Flash Catalyst CS5 stopped working. An error message on Flash CS5 "Error initializing Java Runtime Environment. You may need to reinstall Flash." I have uninstalled and reinstalled stuff, fixed the HDD errors etc but so far no solution. Is this simply error in update software made by some tired engineer?

    2 Suggestions:
    1) Try reinstalling Mac OS X 10.6.7 via Combo Update, it's a common troubleshooting step:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1361
    2) Have you installed the latest Mac OS X Java Update 4?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1360
    I would also suggest to check Adobe's Support Page to see if other users are experiencing the same:

  • Firefox crashes as soon as Flash video tries to load and Safari shows the error "Plug-in Failure"

    I am unable to use Youtube or view Flash video on any sites.
    Firefox crashes/quits as soon as a video tries to load and Safari shows the error "Plug-in Failure".
    I have uninstalled Flash, downloaded a fresh version and installed, but no joy.
    I am using OS X 10.6.6.
    This is what I have tried so far;
    1. Repaired Permissions.
    2. Restarted with external drive and run Disk repair.
    3. Restarted with external drive and run DiskWarrior.
    4. Completely uninstalled Flash plugin. Robooted. Reinstalled Flash plugin. Rebooted.
    5. I even installed an earlier version of the plugin to see if there was some incompatibility with the latest version.
    6. Created a new user login and tried from there. Same problem.
    Any ideas?

    You have what is necessary for Flash Player to be working. Firefox had some issues last year but it was after loading a video or the website. I had not heard of it lately and even last year don't recall it happening on the Macs.
    What is happening with yours sounds like a direct conflict with some addon/extension.
    Here is the link from Firefox describing what happened last year. You might want to see if there is anything more current.
    https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/The%20Adobe%20Flash%20plugin%20has%20crashed?s=Firefo x+crashing+browser&as=s
    I'll get the Mac troubleshooting guide in a minute and post it also.
    Any adblock or popup blocker software would cause this also.
