Both IE and FF flash videos and games slow down/lag???

Starting a half a year to a year ago, flash videos/video players and flash games on firefox and IE would run
fine for a little while and then lag/slow down ridiculously. For the videos it would lag and skip for the rest of the video, but for the flash games it goes through a cycle of running fine and then running slow/very slow for a period of time. How can I fix this? It is so annoying and can make playing flash games and watching videos with flash almost impossible some times.
I unchecked the the box for hardware acceleration already.

Do you have any suggestions in terms of the slowing down/lagging issue? Also, is there an issue with flash player itself that is causing everyone to have all these problems with it ruining videos and stuff? Is adobe working on it/is there any hope that future version of flash player will get rid of the lag or has adobe gone down a path that is just going to cause problems for some people, permenantly, no matter what?

How do you play a Flash video and then close the player?

I have a splash page that plays a .swf. At the end of the
video the home.html page is opened. As/after the home page launches
I want to play a Flash video and then have the player close.
I am willing to trade wife, children or beagles for the info.

Are these two separate browser windows? One for the Flash
.swf and a different window for the home.html document? Is this
correct:
1. show .swf in one window,
2. open new, second, window with home.html
3. show second .swf in first window
4. close first window when second .swf finishes
If this is the scenario, then no, you can't reliably close
the first window. You can use Javascript to close a browser window,
but, if that window wasn't opened using Javascript, then it may not
close gracefully, or in the case of IE, may display a prominent
error message.

Flash videos and menu boxes jump up and down, what would cause this?

After installing Firefox 4, all flash videos and menu boxes jump up and down. I have removed and reinstalled the flash plug in to no avail. This does not affect the playback, just the border of the video or menu box. Other browsers do not do this. Just wondering why this happens?

OK, solved the problem...
I '''''DELETED''''' the file LOCALSTORE.RDF with FF closed. Restarted and everything was back to normal.

Built Flash Video and will NOT show in Hosted Environment

Built Flash Video and will NOT show in Hosted Environment.
The files generated work on development machine. I posted the same
files in hosted environment and flash will not show. I first
thought it was Vista 64 IE 7 so I switched to XP IE7 and same
results. Still it is strange the falsh works locally. I am sure it
is something simple that I am missing. Any help would be
appreciated. Thank you.

Nickels55, I appreciate the response. Here are the
interesting facts. I had my hosting provider apply the mime type
and restart IIS. No flash video. I have Vista x64 Ultimate with I
think IIS 7 (the default IIS that comes with the OS.) The flash
video would not show in that environment until I applied the MIME
and then it WORKED. Yeah! But I still don’t have it working
on my web hosting provider with server Win2003. I thought it was
the hosting provider but I posted on my work server Win 2003 and
changed the MIME with a reset and could not get the video to work
there either.
I would like to try another angle here. Again I am using the
wizard to encode and publish the flash video. Maybe I don’t
have a settings correct. I can approach this a few ways.
1.) I can send my video to someone to post on their Win2003
server and see if they can get it going.
2.) Someone send me a short 3 second video that they produced
that they know it works on Win2003.
3.) Any other ideas? Surely someone in this universe has used
the flash wizard to encode a video and published to a Win2003
server. :)
I guess the other thing to note is when creating the flash
video I chose no controls (play, stop, pause). I want the video to
start when someone accesses the page for the first time.
Thank you for the help everyone.

Why arent any videos working on my firefox browser? Youtube has an error message, and all other videos and ads come up with a blank white screen

It's one of those problems where it works like one minute, and then suddenly stops working the next. I know for a fact it has to do with the flash player in some way. I've had this problem before and found the solution, but for some reason i cant find it again, and forgot how i solved it. I've tried to redownload both adobe flash player and firefox but it didnt solve anything, disabling adblock doesnt help, disabling the hardware acceleration a little but useless difference, i have tried to disable the flash player add-ons and enabled them, both dont work, i only have 1 version of flashplayer( the most recent), and I am too frustrated to keep searching for an answer that is correct, when all i can find are the wrong ones over and over again . If anyone knows how to solve the problem where the FIREFOX(only) browser shows youtube as having the error " an error has occurred. Please try again later. " and all other videos and ads have a white blank screen, PLEASE help
also, everything works on google chrome and IE

also, the last solution i had didnt require me to install an earlier version of flashplayer or firefox, and it was the same problem

Youtybe and other browser videos load super slow on my iphone

Have anyone come across the problem when your youtube and other browser videos loads super slow. It is really frustrating and even the samsung galaxy s 2 loads faster than my iphone 5
I don't if this is only on iphone 5 or other apple products so if you have a solution for please tell me
and iphone 5-ios6 seems to have so many problems such as battery degeneration, purple flare and pixelated camera, maps , alarm clock and many other more
Thankyou for you solutions...

I am experiencing this issue also, and it seems to be specific to wifi only. Both the app and website produce the same slow loading video. Also, oddly enough, cellular will load faster despite it's slower speed. It was rumored that Safari's cache had something to do with it (being that wifi causes the videos to load in high definition/high quality). If you clear your cache (settings, safari, and clear history and clear cookies and data), it temporarily fixes the issue. However, this will only get you through 1 or 2 videos before it returns. Others have tried using different DNS settings (the DNS of your ISP or opendns), but it never seemed to work for me. Still, many others have suggested running your router in WEP mode, which may have had some affect.
Try all the suggestions and see if it improves.
I also forgot to mention that wifi speed on every other use outside youtube is fine.

I have the apple univeral dock and AV cables and can play videos and slide shows on my TV but not music How do I play the music

I am trying to connect an IPOD classic to my TV to play music
I have the dock and AV cables and can play videos and slide shows but not music

Actually, i figured part of it out. When I'm playing itunes to my Apple Tv and Airport Express stations around the house, then turn on the mirroring, the itunes volume bar goes all the way to zero. I can bring it back up manually, and it will play on Apple TV, but it won't broadcast to multiple Airport Express speakers, the way it was doing before I turned on mirroring. It seems that mirroring turns off the airport express stations.

I have just updated itunes to 10.7 and now my videos and flims will not play. I get a message saying itunes has stopped working. Can you help

I have just updated itunes to 10.7 and now my videos and flims will not play.

This helped overcome the crash problem, but (as reported before), I still have to start iTunes in Safe Mode in order to watch any videos. This has been the case since 10.5.
The regular mode behavior has changed a bit - instead of the progress bar moving to the end of the video, showing no video but playing the audio for about three seconds, it now leaves the progress bar where it is ... but the rest of the behavior hasn't changed.
Windows 7 Professional, 64 bit on an HP dv8t quad-core laptop w/ 8 GB RAM, running nVidia GeForce 230M with 1 GB video RAM.
Thanks for your prompt response to the original problem posted above. At least now I'm back where I started from before I upgraded to 10.7. Not optimal, but I've finally gotten used to doing a Ctrl-Shift-click to run iTunes.

I've just synched my new iphone 4s and lost my videos and pictures .. is there any way to restore them?

I've just synched my new iPhone 4s and lost my videos and photos as I opted not to save them when prompted - is there any way to restore these files?

No. Not if you didn't have them backed up somewhere.

Since the ios7 update I go to use my camera and switch to video and it won't switch ! ..why is this ? HELP

Since the ios7 update I go to use my camera and switch to video and it won't switch ! ..why is this ? HELP

Thanks stedman1 for continuing to push this interface change news... I must have taken 100 photos last night (of my shoes) trying to switch to video (unsuccessfully). Very frustrating.
OTOH, like many Apple interface innovations, it is simple to learn and easy to remember.
Honestly, that's all we can ask for, there really ain't no intuitive.

I keep getting the spinning wheel, and macbook pro seems to be slowing down. How do i fix this without buying software?

I keep getting the spinning wheel, and macbook pro seems to be slowing down. How do i fix this without buying software?

Go to system profiler and report back the amount of RAM that you have.
Make sure that you have at least 20% of your hard drive free.
Make sure you don't have a lot of items on your desktop as that can slow things down.
Quit applications that aren't responding or you aren't using and won't be using for a while.
~/Library/Caches Quit all applications and delete this folder. Do a regular delete then do a secure erase on all the items that won't delete.
If it only happens with a certain application (Safari for example)...
1. Quit the application (Safari)
2. Open ~/Library/Preferences and find the file for safari (com.apple.Safari.plist).
3. Put the file in the trash. Do NOT empty the trash yet. Open the application and make sure everything's ok. Now you can delete the file. In Mail if you trash the file, you will get rid or your setup.
Make sure that your dashboard doesn't have too many widgets and use Activity Monitor to see what it's using.
There are ways to disable if you want to.
Make sure that all of your software is up to date.
Repair permissions (it can't hurt)
Don't have a lot of login items.
Your internet browser shouldn't have a lot of extensions.
I hope this helps

Try setting up a new user account and see if you still have the problem when logged into that.

Reduced video quality when slowed down

Is it normal for the video quality of slowed down footage to be less than the original file.
I think the orignal copied file format was MOV (JVC Camcorder seems to generate .MOV and .MOI files) which imports to iMovie09 fine and good quality.
When I move a clip into the Project Viewer and then want to change the speed of the clip, iMovie converts the clip (not sure what format it converts into). When I slow the clip down (to 25%) the quality is reduced.
Is this something I'm doing wrong or is it the original file type? Also, will my original clip be permanently converted into this other form or will it still be intact (therefore just what is in the Project Viewer is the converted format)?
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards

.. Source is SD
bad news..
could be, that adding effect (=any) drops quality by halve..
often discussed here:
when source is DV, iM09 processes interlaced video only single-field.
I have no source files of SD from non-tape-based devices.. perhaps here, the same quality-drop happens..
if you don't mind, would you like to send me a PM? mail adress down below in green..- you can participate in some.. 'tests'.. no, you don't get hurt, just your camera.. kiddin'!!
there's a simple workaround to avoid this, and there's a free 3rd party tool which - maybe - offers a much better slowmo than iMovie..
send me a mail.. I'd like to see, how non-tape SD behaves..

Satellite A500-17X - Games slow down if I play on battery mode

Hi
When my laptop (Satellite A500-17X) is plugged in, the game I play (Call Of Duty 4) works very nice but if I try to play the game while my laptop is on battery the games slows down. If you know what I mean.
Is this supposed to happen because the graphic card doesn't work well when the laptop is on battery or is something wrong with my laptop?

Hi
As mentioned my Syntax, Windows power management decreases the performance of some devices like GPU or CPU using battery mode.
This helps to safe the battery power and to increase the battery working time
Furthermore your cooling modules dont run with full performance using battery and this would lead to a higher internal temperature which could slow down the CPU and GPU as well
So connected the AC adaptor or change the settings in power management but you should note that this will decrease the battery working time dramatically.
