Audio playback not working in Safari

I just upgraded from a PB 15" to MacBook Pro and noticed that on several websites (in Safari) the audio clips will not play although the progress bar shows them playing -- I have to option click them to download them before they are audiable. This occurs in QT as well as Windows Media type files so far .... and can be experienced on myspace.com clips as well -- I don't which file format those are in ....
I am pretty experienced with Macs by now and have no insight into the fix and/or probable cause.
MacBook Pro 1.83 ghz Mac OS X (10.4.5)

I'm having the same problem. Opening Safari with Rosetta does not help. The MySpace player is still not working. It worked perfectly on the PB. I also can no longer view video clips using Windows Media Player on my MBP. I thought the Rosetta thing was supposed to allow you to do **** like you could on the PB. I'm getting frustrated and no one so far has been able to help me.

Audio Playback not working?

Hello
Just recently opened iMovie 08 after a while away and seem to have a problem with the audio playback. When skimming in the source video you can hear that there is audio, however when you want to play it by hitting spacebar there is no audio. When i drag the video to the project window and play, the same again no audio?
Can anyone shed any light on this matter? The more i used this version the more i dislike it arrrrrrrr.
Cheers,
Glen.
Thanks.

i had same problem last night and i messed around with it today and got it to work by finding imovie event or project folder drag to desktop restarted then returned folder to original location open and it played just like new try it and hopefully it will work for you

Audio tag not working in safari 5.1.7 browser on windows 7 machine

Hi,
I have a query. I need to play mp3 sound in the safari 5.1.7 browser on windows 7 machine using javascript code.
I have tried all the three tags(<audio> <embed> and <object>) for playing mp3 audio in the javascript function. But I am not able to play sound. I also doubt whether there is a change needs to be done in safari browser settings. Can anyone please guide me on playing mp3 sound.
function playSound() {
    soundURL = "LoginSound.mp3";
    <audio autoplay=\"true\" ><source src=\""+soundURL+"\" type=\"audio/mpeg\"></audio>
    <embed id=emb1 src='"+soundURL+"' hidden=true autostart=true loop=false>
    <object data='"+soundURL+"' type='audio' src='"+soundURL+"' autoplay=true autostart=true>

Flash not working in Safari 5

Flash has been buggy for me in Safari 5, ever since I updated the Flash player last week to "10.1 r53". Either Flash files don't play at all, or just the audio plays without video.
Per the instructions on these boards, I have:
1. reset Safari
2. uninstalled flash player
3. installed the flash player
4. repaired permissions
5. restarted
The issue is still there. Firefox plays Flash files, YouTube, etc. just fine. Safari does not.
I'm running SL 10.6.4, latest Software Updates.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

I created a new account. Flash works in the new account. That's cool, but I really don't want to re-locate all my prefs, etc., just for a buggy plugin.
So, I next...
1. grabbed the Safari plist from the new account
2. logged out of the new account
3. logged into the old account (where Flash does not work)
4. moved the old account's com.apple.safari plist file out of the Preferences folder
5. moved the clean Safari plist file (from the new account) into the Preferences folder
6. reset and restarted Safari
7. Flash worked...for about two minutes. I tested on YouTube, Vimeo and Google Analytics. Back to Flash not working in Safari.
I then tried repeating the earlier steps.
1. reset Safari
2. uninstall flash player
3. install flash player
4. repaired permissions
5. restarted
Still doesn't work.
Just one other thing to note: whenever I pull up a web page with Flash, I get a "file not found" error in Safari's activity monitor (link is below)...could this be an error with Adobe's website rather than a Safari-permission thing?

Uploading files to website not working with Safari in Windows 7

Safari version: 5.1.7
OS: Windows 7
Hi,
I am a website owner, and I have a feature on my site where users can upload large (up to 50MB) music files to my server. The feature works in Firefox on OSX & Windows platforms and it also works in Safari on OSX. The uploading feature is not working with Safari for Windows. Do you have any idea why and how to fix this? It can't be an issue with my server as it works in other browsers fine and works fine in Safari for OS X.
If you have any information on how to solve this or things for me to try to rectify this for use with Windows operating system it would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

GREAT NEWS!!!!
I have solved this issue myself with some help from my a user on Microsoft Forums. The issue stems from the mime type of each Browser Chrome, IE, & Safari for Windows defaults as audio/wav. When the mime type is changed to audio/x-wav everything works. Firefox defaults to audio/x-wav and when changed to audio/wav it DOES NOT work.
Once I input some code in my .php upload page to change the mimetype if audio/wav is detected everything works GREAT!!!
So Here is what you need to do: Find your upload page and input this code:
echo "<p>MIME Type: ".$_FILES["file"]["type"]."</p>";
right before your "If/then" statement of file type. For me it was near line 30 in my upload.php page, but I'm sure this is different for everyone.
This will detect and DISPLAY the default mime type of your browser on the error page when your upload doesn't work. Once you know what mime type works for your file type then you can change your "if/then" statement for mime type upload to change your mime type to the correct one.
I don't want to give the code here, because I'm sure it's specific to your file types and your site construction, but this should lead you on the right track.
***This is the solution if you ARE NOT ABLE to upload any certain file in a certain Browser. It has to do with mime type construction***
I hope this helps others like it helped me!!!!!

XPS 8700, audio is not working

Hi,
I got this new desktop last month. From the beginning the audio is not working. When I tried installing the drivers from the dell site, I get this error. My system details are:
XPS 8700 (Mid 2013)
<private data>
When I install this:
Audio_CREATIVE_W7_W8_W81_A00_Setup-241T2_ZPE.exe
I get the error setup is unable to install.
When I install this:
XPS-8700_Audio_Driver_313J8_WN_6.0.1.6909_A01.EXE
I get this error =
Vendor Software Return Code: 3
[04/01/15 10:16:01] logo.png
[04/01/15 10:16:01] Name of Exit Code: DEP_SOFT_ERROR

Please tell me what to do

The audio loaded correctly. Plug speakers or head phones (not wireless head phones) into the rear green audio jack. Then the red arrow should disappear under Sound- Playback Speakers.
The KM632 USB adapter should be unplugged, then plugged back into a USB port on the rear of the XPS 8700.
Do that and see if these change.

YouTube will not work on safari for me on the ipad. Is there anyway to fix this? I can go anywhere else on the internet fine and it works on google chrome, but on safari it shows a blank screen with the bar on top after it loads.

I do not know if it's relevant or not, but I got a message on my ipad while on safari saying that my iPhone has a virus. I looked it up and it seems it might have just been an ad from the website I was on, but it happened around the same time YouTube stopped working.

You will find that using the YouTube app will provide a better viewing experience for YouTube videos.

My audio does not work on my pavilion dv4. i just bought this laptop a few days ago. what's going on

my audio does not work on my pavilion dv4

This worked for me.
Hold down the option key while using the Finder “Go To Folder” command. Enter ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dashboard.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Log out/in
If it works, delete the .plist on your desktop.
If the same, return the .plist to where you got them from, overwriting the newer ones.
If you prefer to make your user library permanently visible, use the Terminal command found below.
Show User Library
You might want to bookmark the command. I had to use it again after I installed 10.8.4. I have also been informed that if you drag the user library to Finder it will remain visible.

Macbook pro to HDTV, video is working but audio is not working, how to make audio work as well

Macbook pro to HDTV, video is working but audio is not working, how to make audio work as well

If you use an HDMI cable, the audiostream will be integrated, so there will be sound when using an HDMI cable!
Not necessarily. That only works as stated if you have one of the most recent MBP's that has a built-in HDMI port.
If the MBP only has a Thunderbolt or miniDisplayPort, you need an appropriate adapter cable and even if you use an HDMI adapter or cable to connect to your HDTV there is no guarantee it will carry audio. You have to determine if your specific MBP model supports audio out through its miniDisplayPort or Thunderbolt output, and whether the adapter does likewise.

NYT videos not working in Safari 5

NYT videos not working in Safari 5

Work fine for me - they are just normal Flash videos.
Make sure your Flash Player is up to date.
The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
(You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

Cross-frame scripting is not working in Safari 3.0.4. Minimal example code.

Hello,
I've found that cross-frame scripting is not working in Safari 3.0.4, as it worked
ok on Safari 3.0.1, and in other browsers I tried: Firefox, Mozilla, IE.
document.domain property is set to "ds2ps.net", correctly to the best of my knowledge
in the frameset and in both frames. Both frames and frameset are loaded
from subdomains of the same domain "ds2ps.net"
Please have a look at this mimimal example:
http://frameset.ds2ps.net/frames-test/frameset.html
Press buttons to get alert with value of a variable defined in the frameset
and in the first frame.
This gives "undefined" in Safari 3.0.4, and give following message in Safari
JavaScript console:
Unsafe JavaScript attempt to access frame with URL http://frameset.ds2ps.net/frames-test/frameset.html from frame with URL http://frame2.ds2ps.net/frames-test/frame2.html. Domains, protocols and ports must match.
Works ok in all other browsers and in earlier versions of Safari.
Apperently, I'm doing something incorrectly.
I would appreciate if Apple Safari developers have a look at this problem and suggest solution.
My company is developing web application which depends on cross-frame scripting,
and we would like to continue supporting Safari browser.
Thank you,
John

Thank you, iBod,

Bug 16444: Cross-frame scripting not working in Safari 3.0.4 despite proper document.domain set in all frames

Google Voice Widget Not Working in Safari 5.1 which is Adobe flash wmode transparent based

Google Voice Widget Not Working in Safari 5.1 which is Adobe flash with wmode transparent set. For that matter all flash text fields in Safari 5.1 are not working accross the web when wmode is set to transparent. This is a Safari bug! Other browsers work fine.
Well after much research Adobe flash text field with wmode transparent set is not working in Safari 5.1 when any flash object has the wmode set to "transparent", or "opaque". The problem is many site must layer flash objects with html so the wmode transparent must be used.
Affecting sites like BEST BUY, WALMART, CVS, STAPLES, Chechout their flash based weekly ads and find one that you need to update the quantity in the flash pop-up and the text field with keyboard strokes will not work. Flash text fields were all working fine until several month ago when Safari rolled out 5.1 working for Google Voice Flash based widget which uses the wmode transparent. HELP!

All 3 examples seem to render just fine in IE and FF.

If not working for you, try clearing your cache to remove any old, non working versions.
Test on some other machine besides yours.
Code looks fine and seems to work.
