Cannot watch videos on Facebook all of a sudden. Just happened in last few days
I cant see videos on facebook because it prompts (on facebook) that I do not have the latest version of Abobe Flash Player. I do have Flash Player since It came with my Windows 8.
I made sure the "Active X" is NOT checked in the drop down window, and also made sure the "Shockwave Flash Object" is ENABLED in the 'Manage Ad-Ons' menu.
This error has occured in the last few days for no reason apparent to me.
Also, after running the checks and troubleshooting from the Adobe help pages, It says I do indeed have Flash Player and no need to update or upgrade, Yet at the same time, says it is not enabled after I have followed all steps to enable it.
When I "Test Flash Player" from the Adobe test page, it says: Either flash player is disabled or active x filter is on.
When I try to download the update for windows 8 64 bit machine, It says its already on my computer.
Can anyone help?
Thanks, John
Hi Mike,

Since last two days I cant watch any online videos.. I can hear the voice but the picture is all scrambed and it keeps jumping up and down.
Would appreciate suggestions to fix this.
ThanksMight be the Flash plugin causing this...
Uninstall the old then reinstall new > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
And empty your browser cache more often.

Wi-Fi cannot watch videos message the operation could not be completed
Cannot watch video using Wi-Fi. Get a message that the operation could not be completed. I reset network, reset router, cleared history, closed apps, hard restart.
Video in an app? Over the net? YouTube? Facebook? In your camera roll? More detail would be helpful.

How does one update Flash? I currently cannot watch videos on You Tube, it says I need to upgrade, I have no problem doing this on a PC.
If you're not using chrome you can just go to adobe's website (http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/) and download the newest flash player. You run the .dmg and then open the application, which updates flash. With the latest version of flash there should be a preference pane within system preferences to allow you to change settings and check for updates.

Question
When on Facebook (for example), Firefox is not allowing me to open pictures; when using apps, the bottom of the screen is missing so cannot utilize the apps. All working on Safari; just downloaded new Firefox 4, so seems to be a probleCan you attach a screenshot?
*http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screenshot
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/how-do-i-create-screenshot-my-problem
Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot.
See also "Help About".
*Tap the Alt key or press F10 to show the Menu bar.
In current Firefox releases (29 and later) the orange Firefox menu button has been replaced by the three-bar Firefox Menu button at the far right end of the Navigation Toolbar and this button is always visible, whether you have the menu bar visible or hidden<br>A consequence of this location is that you no longer can hide the Navigation Toolbar
*There is a star like button next to the search bar on the Navigation Toolbar to bookmark the current web page and a "Show your bookmarks" button next to it to open the Bookmarks in a drop down menu.<br>You can find "Show All Bookmarks" to open the Bookmarks Manager (Library) at the bottom of this drop-down list
*If you bookmark a page then "Bookmark This Page" in the Bookmarks menu changes to "Edit This Bookmark"
*You can make the title bar visible via the "Title Bar" button at the bottom left in the Customize palette window
It is still possible to have the menu bar visible via the right-click context menu of a toolbar to have menus like the File menu with Print (Ctrl+P) and Print Preview and the Bookmarks menu available.

Cannot watch video in a shared fotostream
Hi
Suddenly I cannot watch videos in a shared fotostream anymore. I have ben able to watch videos a few days ago.
I have made a 'hard reset' but it still doesn't work.
Any suggestions?

I cannot watch video's. When I try, it prompt's me to download Adobie plug in. The plug-in look's like it is downloading. But after it is done, I still cannot watch video's. Even after closing firefox and reopening it. I cannot watch video's on firefox.
Peggy DrummondYou have '''Shockwave Flash 10.3 r181 ''' installed for Firefox.
Try this test page - http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ - does it sat that Flash is installed? -
Everyting was perfect earlier. Used to convert all my videos into iPhone mp4 format using Any Video Converter - then add it to my iPhone 3GS. But last few days, I cant add video files to iTunes. and the iTunes doesnt even specify the reason except for that "files are not supported"
Everything is fine.
-They are the right format
-Quicktime is updated
-I have tried simply dragging them into the 'movie' library
-I have tried going to file<add file to library
Nothing works, has anyone else had this problem and found a way around it?
Any and all help appreciated.In addition to Mike's suggestions, you only have 4GB of RAM and Mavericks does use more RAM than other versions. You may also want to look at the apps that startup on login and the possiblity of upgrading RAM.

Over the last few days, I cannot load the updates for my iPs apps or download any books via iTunes as it will not allow me to connect to the iTunes store.
Hi susieq2014,
When troubleshooting iTunes Store connection issues, the following articles provide the best information:
First, try signing out of your account in Settings > iTunes & App Store. Once signed out, go ahead and sign back in.
iOS: Changing the signed-in iTunes Store Apple ID account
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1311
If the above did not resolve your issue, refer to the following:
Can't connect to the iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1368
Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
- Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
- Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
- Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
- Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guidefor your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
- Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
- Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
- If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.
Thanks,
Matt M. -
So in the last few days I’ve noticed that pressing my volume change keys actually isn’t changing the volume on my macbook pro at all. When I press the volume up or down keys, it makes the recognisable pop sound but stays at the same volume while the squares go up or down. I mute it but my computer still makes sound. It’s the same with the volume control up the top of the screen, too. I slide it up and down and it doesn’t change the volume at all. The only way I can change the volume is with my speakers or the program I’m in (iTunes, VLC etc). I restarted and it seems to be okay then I go to change it a couple minutes later and it’s back to not working again.
I’ve checked my settings- the “use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard fuction keys” is not switched on, and I have tried a suggestion of moving the com.apple.systempreferences.plist file out of the library and onto the desktop and restarting and neither of those seem to make any difference whatsoever. I’ve tried to find online forums but the only suggestions I found were those two and they didn’t work.
I’m just annoyed because I usually have the worst luck with technology but my macbook had been going strong and I got it because of the apparent lack of things that could go wrong, but of course even if there is one thing that could go wrong it will happen to me.
Please help!You migh give resetting your NVRAM a try:
