Can't watch video on firefox e.g. bbc iplayer, video doesnt load, what should I do?

When I click on bbc iplayer, no vdeos load or work. I just seen a black screen. BBC news and bbc football I can't watch any videos

By all means try the Reset as advised by Tyler, but note you then loose extensions, open tabs, and possibly some settings, as explained in the article Tyler linked to. (You may wish to bookmark tabs, and extensions home pages. Plugins are not touched by reset)
I note you
* have been using the article [[Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox]]
* downgraded to Flash 10.3 (see system details aside)
* have RealPlayer related software/plugins, so please ensure that is all fully updated
If the reset does not work the next thing to try is disabling Flash Players protected mode, that solves a lot of FlashPLayer problems on Firefox Windows. (Not the simplest of tasks but this [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/forums/support-forum-contributors/708905?last=50206#post-50153 post] contains links to instructions)
As an aside YouTube does or did have options to try HTML5 beta versions, you may need to check whether or not you are enrolled in that, as that may solve or cause problems in some circumstances.

    Judging by all the posts on the forum, there seems to be an issue at Apple's end, although they have made no announcement on their status page. Some users have reported that Apple is aware of the issue.

  • Vine.co can not watch videos on other browsers do not have the problem with firefox firefox there just did not work, delete cookies, history

    vine.co can not watch videos on other browsers do not have the problem with firefox firefox there just did not work, delete cookies, history

    I think this problem may be caused by Yahoo's changes making it incompatible with the klatest version of FireFox.
    This is suddenly affecting many many people who use Firefox and are members of Yahoo Groups. All these people say they themselves changed nothing and have not been locked out before when using Firefox. But suddenly, within the last week, they are.
    What did Mozilla do or what did Yahoo do to cause this problem? I can say that I was not blocking cookies and after trying a number of things to fix it, I went to Yahoo's home page and navigated to my group from here.
    This problem is not anything a user did. Either Firefox is at fault or Yahoo is. I want to know which company is at fault and when they are going to fix it.

  • I can't watch videos on Youtube in HD ever since that mess with HTML5 last month.

    So in February there was a brief stint where Youtube decided to force everyone to watch videos only with the HTML5 player, which forced many Firefox users to watch videos with only 360p and 720p as resolution options, and even at 720p the video was blurry and playback was choppy. I tried using a couple different add-ons people made to force Youtube to use Flash Player again, but the video quality was even worse than on the HTML5 player so I removed them. And now, even after Youtube allowed Flash Player to be used again, ever since that mess happened it's affected the videos I watch. Now I can't watch videos in any real high definition, because on any resolution option the videos become "fuzzy." The edges of people, text, and objects are pixelated and either blurry or jagged and not crisp and sharp as they should be. I also have problems with "rippling," where it seems as if thin, vertical lines are moving on the screen and subtly distorting the video. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Flash Player, Firefox is on the current version, and everything else on my system that I know of is up to date. I have also tried watching videos in safe mode. Nothing changes. I can't get the videos to look normal again. For almost the past month I've had to start using Chrome specifically just for Youtube because nothing I do will get it to work properly again on Firefox.

    Hello,
    Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
    To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
    #Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
    #Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
    #Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
    # Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. <br/> <br/>[[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] <br/>
    # Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
    # Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
    # Restart Firefox.
    This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
    Does this solve the problem? Let us know.

  • I can't watch videos on most websites. Help!

    i can't watch videos on most sites. the only one which i can watch videos so far is youtube. i upgraded the latest driver for my graphics card (nvidia geforce) and also adobe flash but still doesn't help. thanks in advance for your assistance.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Updated Flash, now can't watch videos or listen to music

    Just had to update Flash to version 16.0.0.235 and now I can't watch videos on YouTube, Huffington Post or Packers.com, and I can't listen to music on AccuRadio or Radio Margaritaville, both of which require Flash.
    I've tried everything - emptying the cache, deleting the folders, uninstalling (Which, oddly, enabled me to watch YouTube videos) and reinstalling, even checking the add-ons and making sure it's active.  Everything that checks for Flash tells me it's not installed, and the animation on Adobe's page that's supposed to show me moving clouds doesn't even show up.  (I turned off AdBlock for this site; still nothing.)
    What else can be done?
    I'm using Mozilla Firefox version 34 on Windows XP.

    Please ask your question on a forum for the Flash Player

  • Can't watch videos in streeming on MacBook...

    Hi,
    I don't know if somebody could help me out with this - I can't watch videos in streeming on my MacBook. I bought it recently, everything was working just fine at the begining. But since last week I can't watch any videos on any web site that has videos in streeming. I tried to reinstall DivX, but it didn't help. It's probably not a Safari problem cause I installed firefox and still can't see no video. I don't know what else to do... I can watch other videos I have on my computer. I checked software updates but the last ones are from july, and the two new ones are a security update (I don't know if his could be the problem) and iTunes.
    If you have any tips I would be very grateful.

    I've had problems with this before actually. Here's my post: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1532701&tstart=0

  • I have a Mac version 10.5.8 with Safari and I can't watch video's... I can download flash player but it won't work.

    I can't watch video on my Mac version 10.5.8 with Safari.

    Could be Flash Player problem.
    Two bugs, one affecting Apple's Mac platform and another attacking Microsoft's Windows, exploit certain Flash player vulnerabilities to install malware onto users' systems, reports ArsTechnica. While users of other operating systems like Linux have yet to report attacks, Adobe's advisory notes the exploit affects all platforms.
    Designated as CVE-2013-0634, the first vulnerability targets the Safari and Firefox Web browsers running on OS X, and is also being used as a trojan to deploy Microsoft Word documents containing malware. For Mac users, the flaw affects Adobe Flash Player version 11.5.502.146 or earlier.
    The Adobe Flash patch can be found on the company's website, and users can visit this page to check if their software is the most curent version.

  • Can I watch video through my iPhone and TV at the same time?

    Can I watch video through my iPhone and TV at the same time while using the Apple composite video cables? I am planning a trip in my car and would like to play videos for my kids through their video screen while my wife watches on the iphone from the passenger seat. I didn't want to spend $50 to find out it doesn't work.
    Thanks in advance!

    It doesn't work that way, sorry. When video out is being utilized, only the movie artwork (the cover or image) is displayed, and the actual movie is not displayed on the iPhone's screen.

  • Can't watch videos online... Do I need some flash player?

    Can't watch videos online... Do I need some flash player?

    There is no flash player for the iPad, it's not supported.
    Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites, especially news sites, have their own apps in the App Store.
