Can't play Daily Show videos in Safari or firefox

I try to turn the "Allow third-party..." setting to TRUE in the attached image but it doesn't seem to change. I wonder if this might be related to why I can't play these videos.
Any thoughts?
TIA,
David

Since the those videos require Flash, try this.
Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Storage tab.
Select:  Allow sites to save information on this computer
Then select the Advanced tab.
Select Delete All under Browsing Data and Settings
Now empty the Safari cache..
From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
Select:  Show Develop menu in menu bar
Now click Develop from the menu bar. From the drop down menu click Empty Caches.
Quit and relaunch Safari. Try a video.

  • Can't play/view CNBC Videos in Safari?

    I do a lot of stock trading & often want to watch videos on CNBC.com. They will not play in Safari for me. I have an iMac C2D 2.16 Ghz. I have installed Flip4mac & also have Java plug-in installed. I can view NBC video fine & most other websites that have video, not all. Any idea why I can't view the CNBC videos?
    Example of CNBC video: http://www.cnbc.com/id/15840232?video=219226747&play=1

    Adding to Barry's helpful direction, the link you posted has poor coding. As Safari follows strict industry guidelines, this type of site usually won't render in Safari.
    I tried the link in Firefox where it played without problem, although the CPU temperature when up 10 degrees C.
    Poor coding contributes to inconsistancy across platforms and browsers. The Web Standards Project is attempting to raise industry awareness and standards to minimize this type of problem.
    In the meantime, it's good to have alternate browsers. I use Safari as a primary with Firefox and Opera (sometimes Camino) as alternatives. Here's the various sources where you can download the browsers:
    Firefox
    Camino,
    Mozilla,
    Opera,
    OmniWeb (shareware).

  • Can't get Comedy Central Daily Show video to play on MacPro, but plays ok on MacBookPro. Wassup?

       I'm flummoxed. Both MacBook Pro and Mac QuadPro are now Lion.
       I can get Daily Show videos to play on the Macbook pro, but not on the MacPro, and I hardly know where to start diagnosing the problem. I've tried to compare configurations w/ FireFox, but I don't see the discrepancy, if there is one.
       I used to be able to see the video on (shows up as a solid black rectangle) the desktop in 10.5.8, then I think disappeared in snow leopard, 10.6.nn, and has remained so in 10.7.1

    Try Lion forum and even Safari. Lion pulled PowerPC/Rosetta code support.

  • Can't play youtube music videos on facebook

    hi everyone, i was wondering, am i the only person who can't play music-videos from youtube - on facebook? i don't have this problem on chrome [which belongs to google, and so is youtube..]
    it started in the last few days, or weeks, before i updated my firefox. i can't play youtube music-videos posted on facebook from facebook, but i can play them only from youtube.com.
    when i try to play a video that has music in it, i get this message:
    "this video contains content from RECORDLABEL. it is restricted from playback on certain sites. watch on youtube"
    i also sometimes get a message that a certain video can't be played from playlists, but i can watch the video from its page [i don't know if it's related..].
    my friends who use chrome can play music-videos on facebook, and i tried for myself and it plays the videos and doesn't show any restrictions messages.
    i didn't try on explorer [bleh] or opera.
    so my question again is, do you have the same problem too?
    i can play this video on facebook: [it's funny as hell, watch it!]
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=717vb7kLKKk
    but i can't play this one on facebook, only on youtube: [and other music-videos, i can give you a million examples]

    thanks :]

    "11 people have this problem", hm... maybe i should try from a different computer. any ideas what might be the problem? if it's because of an addon i have, country, anything?

  • LR 5.4 Can't Play or Import Video in OSX Mavericks

    I copied several MP4 video files from the Lumix LX7 card to a folder on an external hard drive. However I can't import them into LR 5.4. Furthermore, I now see that LR can't play any video files (all MP4) that are in the catalog. The playbar doesn't even show up.
    This problem came up when I upgraded to OS X Mavericks and upgraded from LR 4 to LR 5. So I'm not sure what's causing the issue. Was able to import and play videos before, but they played kind of choppy earlier.
    I've since removed all Quicktime plugins (Perian). Made sure I'm using the most recent version of Quicktime (10.3). Repaired permissions and restarted. Still can't play or import video.
    I've also reinstalled LR 5.4 and wiped preferences files. Earlier I couldn't import photos & videos, but I paritially fixed that when I removed the video files from the import folder. I was able to get all the images in fine then. The video seems to be the hangup.
    In catalog: no video preview image, just grey, no playbar.
    In import: generic "camera" preview image, says "Could Not Read Preview"
    Any idea what I can do to get LR to play and import videos, or fix the issue?

    Incidentally, the videos playback without a hitch in Quicktime. When I right-click on any of the catalog videos and select "Show In Finder," the MP4 plays perfectly in Quicktime.
    It just won't play within LR 5.4.

    First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:
    https://forums.adobe.com/thread/867968
    Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
    You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:

    If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

  • I can't play music or videos!!

    I can't play music or videos on iPod touch 5! When I play music it pauses and plays by itself and then Siri randomly pops up and then goes away again. The same happens with videos on YouTube; when I watch them they randomly pause and my music starts playing and then Siri starts! I have tried resetting it and it is not insured. Please help?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - dusconnedc/unpluf any headpohnes. Maybe headphone problem is causing problem
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Can't play TV shows on my video ipod. . .

    Only had this awhile. In iTunes, I have TV Shows under library, but I can't find TV shows anywhere on my iPod. I looked through prefs and I can find music videos. I've tried creating a playlist, but the only place I can play movies that I bought at iTunes store is on my computer.
    Any suggestions?
    thanks

    I looked through it, but ONLY TV shows aren't playing, nor will the TV Shows playlist copy to my 5th gen video iPod. Everything else from the iTunes Store (including music videos that came with CDs) is playing.

  • I can't play MPEG4.avi video  - all I get is "The video player has stopped working. Please relaunch"

    I can't play MPEG4.avi, or any other, video  - all I get is "The video player has stopped working. Please relaunch".  Please tell me what to do.

    I took the video in 2009.  I can't remember the camera model I took it with and the other information you request does not show up in the "i" panel in iPhoto.
    My version of iPhoto 11 is 9.2.3.

  • I can't play any web video in any site like Youtube or cnet...etc on iPad mini

    Wireless network setup with Microsoft virtual mini-port adapter, since connecting my iPad to the network I can't play any video in Safari in sites like Youtube or cnet...etc. also other Apps that depend on Safari to play videos has the same problem.
    I tried my iPhone 5s, the same problem. Both iPad and iPhone has iOS 7.1.1.
    The strange thing is that My iPhone 4 iOS v5.1.1 doesn't has the problem with this wireless network.
    Anyone had the same problem. Please help.
    Thanks in advance.

    If it is related to the allowance setting then why iPhone 4 iOS5 is working fine.
    I tried to check the settings, noting to add or do there.

  • Can't watch video on Safari or Firefox on OS X Tiger?

    Hello again,
    How can one go about installing plug-ins for Firefox 2.0 and Safari?
    I installed RealPlayer 10 and during the installation it would install the appropriate plug-ins into my browsers...
    This is the contents of my ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins directory:
    Raven:~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins untz$ ls -al
    total 400
    drwx------ 5 untz untz 170 Jul 22 02:17 .
    drwx------ 49 untz untz 1666 Aug 27 15:02 ..
    drwxrwxr-x 4 untz untz 136 Aug 19 17:20 Macromedia
    Where are the RealPlayer plugins supposedly installed? Where do I place them, in order, to get FireFox and Safari to play embedded streaming video?
    Many, many thanks!

    Hi,
    The RealPlayer plugin should be in this location:
    Hard drive -> Library -> Internet Plug-ins
    This location affects all users installed on the system.
    I think RealPlayer has to be launched once to install the plugins also, so if you haven't done that give that a go.
    For Windows Media streams, make sure you install the Flip4Mac plugin too.

  • Can not play the music videos on i tunes

    i try to play my music videos on i tunes, i have sound but no picture, i can play tv shows , movies but no music videos which i purchase from i tunes store. any idea why this is happening?

    is your ipod set to auto sync? if it is, you cant listen to those songs on your computer. if you want to listen to songs that are on your ipod on your computer, set it to manually sync or whatever. that should work.
