Blocked plug in on my macbook pro?

How do I stop getting a blocked plug in message when on my Macbook pro with snow leopard OSX 10.6.8??????

Hi, kimberlywalker88. 
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
I would need more information regarding where and how you are receiving this message to provide a better answer.  However, its sounds like you may be receiving the plug-in error via Safari.  I would recommend taking a look at the articles below as they may help with this.

  • I have an older WD Passport mini hard drive plugged into4 year old macbook pro. Needs additional application to download recorded tv show, which app might i need?

    I have an older WD Passport mini drive plugged into my Macbook Pro. Once connected I can't watch recorded TV show. What additional software do I need to download to my Pro to view?

    Depends on what codec the video files are. You SHOULD be able to use quicktime. But I have found Quicktime to not be able to play all codecs.

  • Seagate Plug and Play from Macbook Pro to Macbook Air

    Recently bought a new Macbook Air to upgrade my 2010 Macbook Pro 13 inch.
    I had been using a Seagate Plug and Play external hardrive that needed no formatting on my Macbook Pro . However when I tried to use the same on my Macbook Air it did not allow me to drag files across the the hardrive.
    I can see it in the Finder but unable to drag files to it.
    I thought Plug and Play woudl across all Macs?

    OS X comes with the ability to read NTFS but not write it. Some Seagate drives come with software to enable writing NTFS on that drive. You probably installed it on your 2010 MBP when you got the drive, then forgot you had done so. Find the software installer if it is still on the drive and run it on your MBA. (You might have to locate a newer version online.)
    Alternatively, you can purchase a version that can run on any NTFS disk. I use Paragon NTFS for Mac. I initially got a limited version with a Seagate drive, then purchased the full version.

  • Distorted blocks of random color on macbook pro after 10.5.2 update

    My macbook pro is going crazy after the 10.5.2 & graphic drivers update. This is the second time I have received large blocks of color completely filling both the macbook pro lcd and the samsung external monitor. Has never happened before on 10.5 or 10.5.1. While the screens are filled with garbage I can vaguely see outlines of programs etc.
    I am a recent mac user, having purchased the laptop in late september 2007. Any ideas about what I can do to troubleshoot? Console shows no errors logs. When the system crashes, everything is still running and I can hear music playing but I cannot navigate my way to save all open work and have to power off.
    Aside from that, sometimes when I wake the machine and open the lid it never wakes up and I have to power off. And sometimes when I reboot, it never reboots and sits on the final screen after everything has disppeared.
    Any ideas?

    Disconnect all peripherals from the computer. Boot from your install disc & run Repair Disk from the utility menu. To use the Install Mac OS X disc, insert the disc, and restart your computer while holding down the C key as it starts up.
    Select your language.
    Once on the desktop, select Utility in the menu bar.
    Select Disk Utility.
    Select the disk or volume in the list of disks and volumes, and then click First Aid.
    Click Repair Disk.
    Restart your computer when done.
    Once you reach the desktop, repair permissions.

  • Blocking iMessage and FaceTime from macbook pro

    i just installed yosemite.
    1) is there a way to COMPLETELY BLOCK iMessages from my iPhone from ever showing up on my macbook pro?
    i noticed that when i go into iMessage preferences on my macbook pro that in settings i was able to turn off my cell phone number (?and email account) so that messages would never pop up on my iMac. but i also noticed that under accounts, "blocked" it LISTS the names and phone numbers of people i have blocked! is there some way to make sure this NEVER shows up on my macbook pro?
    when i "deleted" some of the blocked names in accounts of iMessage on my macbook pro, and then looked on my phone, i noticed they were no longer blocked. so i blocked a particular individual again via my phone, and it showed up in my iMessage as blocked on my macbook pro.
    is there a way to just remove or completely hide iMessage on my macbook pro? can i also remove it from the ?toolbar at the bottom of the computer?
    2) same thing with FaceTime. i never use it on my iPhone (have it turned off on my iPhone), and have it turned off on my macbook via preferences. but is there also a way to remove it or hide it on my macbook pro, so that it never shows up? also remove it from ?toolbar at bottom of macbook?
    (interestingly, as i typed this, i noticed the iMessage icon disappeared from my ?toolbar at the bottom of the macbook pro. was that because i hit the "hide iMessage" under preferences on my macbook?)
    thank you for your help,
    a-

    Sign out of Messages by going to System Preferences/Internet Accounts and deselect the enable this account box. To get it out of the Dock, control - click and hold, then Options/Remove from Dock. Dock procedure is the same for FaceTime.
    For FaceTime, open the application then FaceTime/Preferences, and deselect enable this account.

  • Firefox doesn't block chrome pop-up in macbook pro

    In my new Macbook pro firefox does not block the chrome pop-up advertisement on the google.com.au page.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == When I moved from a windows laptop to a Mac one.

    The malware software suggested in the previous reply is for windows only not for Macs. My problem is the chrome pop-up advert in google.com.au is NOT being blocked by firefox. I have no such problem with my windows computer!

  • Extra plug with the new macbook pro

    I got the new macbook pro 13inch.
    Along with the charger I also got a small plug with it like an extra piece.
    What is that

    It replaces the cord itself, you can plug the Magsafe directly into a socket using that (localised) adapter - be warned though that most of them don't have an earth connection and so you might get some 'tingle' when you move your palms over the front of your MacBook Pro.

  • Airport extreme blocking port 25 from my macbook pro

    My airport extreme is not supporting port 25 from my macbook pro, only product in my residence that port 25 is not supported. (iPads, iPods, macbook air)

    I believe I understand this better now. When I unplug my MacBook Pro from the network including disabling Wi-Fi, then when I open AirPort Utility it of course shows and I am no longer connected to my home network on the MBP. All the other hardwired or Wi-Fi connected computers, printers, hard drives and iPads are still connected.

  • My Safari says it blocks plug-ins.why?MacBook 10.6.8 I am not bery computer savvy.

    Why won't my Safari allow plug-ins?  I used it for years and just recently it has become a problem.  I wanted to send an ecard and the preview is blocked but the site will let me in.  I downloaded Adobe but it has not helped.

    Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Accessibility settings.
    *Firefox > Preferences > Content : Fonts & Colors > Colors : [X] "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above"

  • My iPad doesn't seem to charge when plugged in to my MacBook Pro if the MBP goes to sleep. My iPhone continues to charge even if the MBP is closed. Is that normal?

    My iPad (3rd Gen) seems to stop charging if it is plugged into my MBP if either the iPad is closed or if the MBP goes to sleep. My iPhone charges whether the MBP is awake or asleep or even if the MBP is closed. There is a screen display that shows the iPhone is charging. The iPad only has the tiny icon at the top of the screen that show it is charging. However, the battery's % charged does not increase if the lid is closed when I am charging the iPad if the lid is closed on the iPad or if the iPad off after pressing the on off button. Is this normal?

    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night. Also look at The iPad's charging challenge explained http://www.macworld.com/article/1150356/ipadcharging.html

  • How do I block pop ups on my MacBook Pro - Chrome Browser

    Last week I foolishly watched a stupid video on FB.
    Ever since I have been getting pop up on my Mac Book Pro.
    I use a chrome browser and have deleted all my history and cookies a few times and they still pop up.
    It was just one, some sort of pop up telling me I need an app to clean sweep my mac. It didn't look legit so I would always close it out. Now a different type is popping up.
    Help.
