Can't open Youtube videos with a left click. Have to open in new tab/window to view.

When on Youtube, I can't open videos by clicking on them when in the search result page. I have to open them in a new tab or window. All other elements work on the page. Once the video is open in the new tab I am able to play it. Embeded links work. It is only on Youtube itself. Fine in Safari. Only experiencing this in Firefox.

  • HOW CAN YOU WATCH YOUTUBE VIDEOS WITH CC ON? THIS FRUSTRATES ME A LOT. THANKS.

    So, I am kinda confused. I searched around the net and all that, and I found out that there's this thing in setting where you turn on the "closed-captioning". So I turned it on and tried watching videos in YouTube but IT didn't work. Also, I remember one time that I can use CCin YouTube. it's weird.
    I remember that they said if the Cc were encoded in quicktimes you can see the CC but if it's flash you can't. So I figured it's impossible to watch YouTube videos with CC. However, if anyone knows another way to watch with CC on YouTube, tell me please. Thanks.

    Sorry, but I don't know if there is a way.
    Also, just to be picky....would you be kind enough to avoid using all caps in your title?

  • After I installed Shockwave Flash 11.4 r402 I cannot open youtube videos with Safari 6.0.2. I still can open them with Firefox

    I get only a black screen and I cannot play the videos. I removed the flash plugin and reinstalled but this did not make any difference.

    I have the very same problem.
    Apple, what's happening?
    Lately i have been fighting with issues i always had on Windows: tha's why i switchted to Apple.
    I can't believe all it' s going so wrong!

  • Firefox add-on that opens YouTube videos with a native player

    Put this together today after getting fed up with YouTube's crappy player. It removes the player from any YouTube page and instead plays the video mpv. It also supports playlists if that's your sort of thing.
    Demonstration
    Source code and install instructions
    Hope someone else finds this useful.

    SirCmpwn wrote:mpv doesn't work well with a lot of videos, especially DRM'd ones. I originally made it go straight to mpv, but switched to the youtube-dl solution later.
    Ah, I've not yet had that problem. What exactly are the youtube credentials used for?

  • How can I record a video with LAbview?

    Hi,
    I have a question: How can I record a video with labview?
    I have a camera (AXIS 221) connected via rj45 on PC. I see the video of the camera in a browser.
    And I would to acquire the video in labview.
    Could someone help me?
    Thanks
    Raf

    Unfortunately I haven't any experience with this camera. Iguess, you should install API, then crete new VI, place ActiveX container (palette Container->ActiveX) on the Front Panel, then right mouse click, then choose Insert ActiveX object..., then found you camera object and select it and press OK. Then you probably can see image from the on the front panel. Also probably you will be able to get image data in array (how easy is it - depends from the camera API).
    If you able to see image from camera in the Internet Explorer, then another method - you can put Microsoft Web Browser as ActiveX object, then you should also see the image. Disadvantage of this method - you will be not able to get image data.

  • I can't watch YouTube videos on my brand new MacBook Pro with Lion. It says I need to download Adobe Flash Player but that won't install. Help!

    I can't watch YouTube videos on my brand new MacBook Pro with Lion. It says I need to download Adobe Flash Player but that won't install. Help!

    The same thing happens to me, Safari asks me to update the Adobe FlasPlayer, I download, start the installation process, ask me my username and password in order to install, then see a window where I choose if I want to always install the updates , or ask first, or not inslate updates, and at this point it is not progress, I can not cancel the process, I turn off and turn on my machine.
    What can I do ..??
    Regards.

  • Why I can't to open youtube video that shown the server is not correctly configured?

    Youtube has an error the server is not correctly configured. Could you help me to solve this problem?

    With any other device such as my Samsung TV or portable computers, access to Youtube is flawless, everything working perfectly.
    So i assume that any Apple iOS device with recent updates have a problem with Youtube.
    A bug or else from Apple iOS.
    Apple iOS is not compatible with Flash and now it seems it's not compatible with Youtube either.
    Maybe Youtube is using to much flash type programs.
    If you can help, please do so, because we can not show our Youtube videos with Apple iPod Touch or iPAD2 anymore.
    Hey, does Google have Youtube now?  If so, maybe Google is giving a hard time to Apple?
    Anybody from Apple or the community can't help?
    Thanks.

  • I can't play YouTube videos on my IPhone! What's the problem?

    I can't watch YouTube Videos on my IPhone 4 (iOS 5.0.1 No jailbreak) The Debug Console from Safari tells me, that there's a mistake in the JavaScript. How to fix it? I already spoke with Google, but they didn't have a problem. I can open other website and by example videos from Vimeo, but I can't play YouTube-Videos.
    I hope, you can help me!

  • I cannot open youtube videos to full screen after downloading the latest version of flash. HELP

    I cannot open youtube videos to full screen after updateding flash to the latest version (11. something) HELP! youtube says it is adobe's problem

    To help troubleshoot we'll need the following system information:
    Operating   system  
    Browser  
    Flash   Player version
    When reporting issues with video or audio, it's also helpful to get your system hardware and driver details.  Instructions for finding this information can be found here:
    Windows  
    Mac
    Finally, sometimes video and audio problems are caused at a lower level and not directly related to Flash Player.  I recommend trying both of the links below to see how they perform.  If the problem exists with both, then Flash Player is most likely not the culprit as the HTML5 video link does not use Flash Player when playing.  You can verify the use of HTML5 by right clicking the HTML5 video and looking for the words "About HTML5" at the bottom of the context menu.
    HTML5   video  
    Non-HTML5 video

  • How can I import youtube videos to iMac mediathek ?

    How can I import youtube videos to iMac mediathek ?

    The problem with this question is that Youtube forbids downloads according to their terms unless there is a download option offered, so, in order not to violate the terms of these forums, we are not allowed to discuss such matters.

    This code in userChrome.css will move "Open Link in New Window" to the top of the context menu.

    the user jay_ff shows how to do it using the Menu Editor Add-on
    1. Install the Menu Editor add-on from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/menu-editor/ .
    2. After the installation, go to Firefox> add-ons (or simply use Ctrl+Shift+A)
    3. Go to the Menu Editor "Options"
    4. In the "Main context menu," simply grab the "Open link in New Tab" and place it below the "Open Link in New Window"
    5. and Voila! You may also change other menu options if you want to!
    I tried jay_ff method first and found that indeed changing the Main Context Menu did cause the hotlink context menu to change as well.

  • Why doesn't firefox open youtube videos, istead whole server get jam.

    Only way to get out is stop process. When open videos sound and music is playing, but video stops after 0-2 second. Then firefox is jammed, nothing works.

    Make sure that you allow the plugin-container in the firewall.

    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.
