Can't play Videos for Fox News

Hi I have not been able to play Fox New Videos Using Safari on my Mac. OSX 10.58. I can only play them on Firefox!
I upgraded to Safari 5.0 thinking that would help. But it didn't. I then upgraded to the latest Quick Time player, and Flash players, but still no go!
I can play videos from CNN and other News Outlets on Safari, so what is the problem??? Do I need some sort of plug in? I am not very familiar with plugins as I am NOT a very techy person, so I need some help.
Thanks

Hi and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
Fox requires the latest version of Flash. Uninstall then reinstall the Flash Player plugin then repair disk permissions.
Uninstall Flash
Install the most recent version of Flash here.
Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and *restart your Mac.*

  • Can't play video on FOX

    I have installed the lastest version of the flash player and I can not see video on the FOX network.  I get audio and the video will flash in momentarily if I click on the spot where the video is supposed to be, but it will not continue playing.  HELP!  I use internet explorer 9.  I have been throught he troubleshooting guide.  however, I can not get to the settings to change the hardware acceleration.  It is not available when I try.  Anybody have some ideas?

    Can you try temporarily disabling any security or adblocking software you have running on your system?  In addition, please try resetting your hosts file to see if that helps.

  • I can't play videos (youtube for example) unless it is in full screen mode. The audio works in either, but the video only shows in full screen. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I can't play videos (you tube for example) except in full screen mode. The audio works in either, but the video doesn't load or run in the normal you tube web site.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Also, the error console shows all sorts of different errors. Though, alot of error parsing values.

    Do you have any Mail plug-ins? In particular, do you
    have any plug-ins installed on one computer but not
    the other? In the Finder, go to each of the following
    folders (if they exist). What do you see there?
    /Library/InputManagers/
    Not Found
    /Library/Mail/Bundles/
    Not Found
    ~/Library/InputManagers/
    Smart Crash Reports Folder / Smart CrashReports.bundle
    ~/Library/Mail/Bundles/
    MailRecent.mailbundle
    > I have a number of Mail Rules in
    place which place messages
    of certain topics in specific Smart
    Mailboxes
    This doesn’t make sense to me. You cannot tell a rule
    to move messages to a smart mailbox, only to a normal
    mailbox. Each smart mailbox has its own set of
    conditions that messages must satisfy in order for
    them to appear there.
    OK. I misstated this. I have a number of Smart Mailboxes with their specific rules in which to route certain topics to specify mailboxes. I am trying to not have to create each Smart Mailbox on each computer.
    The problem is that when I am on the road I add contacts, bookmarks, keychain items, contacts into my laptop and vice versa when home. I would just like to have those Sync on both computers. Seems like it should be easy, but it hasn't been.
    I really don't think I have anything "non-standard." A few Smart Mailboxes, a couple of signatures, thats pretty much it.
    Note: For those not
    familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers
    to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any
    of the folders referred to in this post by copying
    the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder
    in the Finder, and pasting the folder path
    there.

    The video and sound was working on my computer two days ago (and has ALWAYS worked on my computer since purchasing it in 2010) but now for some reason I can't play video and there is no sound.  I updated software today.  Still sound & video not working.
    Please help.

    One of the following steps should help.
    1. Install Adobe Flash Player.
        http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
        Restart computer. Relaunch Safari.
    2.  Enable Plug-ins
        Safari > Preferences > Security
        Web Content:
        Click in the box for "Enable Plug-ins".
    3. Check  whether you are currently  in  YouTube HTML 5 trial.
         http://www.youtube.com/html5
        At the bottom  left of the page  uncheck the box for
       "You are currently in the HTML5 trial".
    4. Reset Safari.
        Click Safari in the menu bar.
        From the drop down select "Reset Safari".
        Uncheck the boxes next to all items.
        Check the box next to "Remove all website data".
        Click "Reset".
    5. Turn off Extensions/Plug-ins if any that may interfere with Flash working properly.
        Safari > Preferences > Extensions
    Best.

  • My iPod touch 5th gen can't play videos?

    I've had my iPod touch 5th gen since Christmas Eve and I haven't had any problems with it, but a few days ago it stopped playing videos and now - even though I have turned it off and back on and turned the wifi off and back on again - it still can't play videos off any site, Facebook, dailymotion, YouTube, nothing. But I can view webpages and get Internet connection just fine!!
    So if you know what I could do to fix it please help because it's very frustrating!!! Thanks

    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.
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - 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 videos after I move them to the micro sd memory card

    I moved my videos bought on video unlimited to the micr sd card to save space using the file transfer app that came with the tablet and now they won't play. I just get the message " can't play video". If I move back onto internal memory they won't play - I suppose because not in the original location but can't see how to fix this. I want to store and play from the sd card. What am I doing wrong please!

    I would advise contacting Video Unlimited support for your region regarding this as it sounds like an issue with the DRM on the files: http://en.support.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/app/help/VU/p1

  • CAn someone help? How can i play videos on my iPod through three ordinary TVs at once?

    Can anyone help please? How can I play videos on my iPod through three non Apple TVs at the same time?

    i had this pb with my sis ipod, you have to convert the videos to put them on the ipod, here is the french tuto (never found it in english, and this always works).

  • Can't play videos on a newly upgraded iBook

    I have recently upgraded my iBook G3 to 10.4.11. I also added an Airport card and a 512 MB RAM card. I can do pretty much anything on the internet (Safari 4.0.4) but can't play videos. The picture is really jumpy & laggy and the sound continues out of sync with the picture. Am I missing something or is the computer just not advanced enough to keep up?

    Hi, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Streaming video on an iBook G3 is a toughie.
    Some suggestions which I found to help:
    Restart the computer and open only the browser you want to use. Don't have any other applications open when you're attempting to watch streaming video.
    Sometimes Firefox worked better for me than Safari (but I never used 10.4 on my iBook G3).
    Some people have reported luck using VLC:
    http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-macosx.html
    As a last resort, if possible, download the video and watch it from your hard drive.
    Keep in mind that the last, best iBook G3 (900 MHz) was last produced in October of 2003, so you have a very old iBook attempting to play the latest versions of video, so things are often not very workable.
    Good luck.

  • I can't play videos and have followed all advice I've seen

    I can see I'm not the only one as it's mentioned on the forums a few times, but I can't play videos on Itunes or Quicktime anymore.  I've been through each step mentioned by various people one by one and it's still not working - please can someone help?  I've just bought a lead that enables me to watch my computer on my TV screen and downloaded a whole heap of films, but the only place I can watch them is on my phone!
    Thanks.

    similar problem, and I sometimes get "can't load wrong format" warniings for non-purchased mv4 and mp4 content. Previously I'd given-up trying but recently a need for traveling movies has raisd the issue again.

  • How come I can't play videos anymore?

    I'm running iPhoto v 7.1.5; OS X 10.9.1, but I can't play videos anymore? How is this possible?  What do I need to do? Please help.

    iPhoto v7 (or iPhoto 08 dates from 2007, and is looking for Quicktime 7 to play the videos - the version of Quicktime that was current then. 10.9 uses Quicktime X.
    Two options:
    Upgrade to a more recent version of iPhoto
    or
    Install QUicktime 7. You'll find an installer here

  • HT4072 can't play video files (mp4, avi, mkv) with 5.1 audio tracks

    I have two Macs, one with a mini-optical out and no audio through its mini-displayport, and the other that supports digital audio out through its mini-displayport. On either of my Macs, how can I play video files (mp4, avi, mkv) in 5.1 using Quicktime or iTunes or VLC? I've heard I need Perian. Is this true? If so, how do I configure it on either machine?
    Note that when I connect the computer that supports audio through the mini-displayport to my receiver, my home theater receiver detects a PCM audio connection, but the audio I get out of my speakers is still stereo.
    Both computers are running Snow Leopard. I haven't had the need to upgrade to Lion yet, but if the answer is that I need Lion do do this, I'd spend the $29.
    Thanks for the help!

    This just happened for the first time with an .mkv file I was trying to play. It started fine but then after selecting a menu option in smplayer the video disappeared. It didn't go black, the player just stopped presenting the video. In other words the player switched to audio playback mode only, the window was unable to go into fullscreen or be resized. Smplayer still works with other HD files. Deleting the config directory fixes the problem until I select a menu option, such as, setting the audio to 5.1, then the video portion disappears again.
    Does anyone know what is going on here or have any ideas on how to fix this issue?
    Thanks for any help provided.
    that's because now mplayer they switch to libavformat demuxer for mkv and ogg and i think is a bug in smplayer because is making some configuration for files in file_settings in which is sets demuxer & co. this switch is confusing smplayer and it should be reported upstream
    p.s if you actually select demuxer from smplayer to mkv it would work perfectly
