Cant play CNN video

I get how this question thing works now, heres the question.
My new and expensive imac came with a preinstalled link to the cnn new site. How do I play the video footage on this site, it just plays on every other computer I own.
Thanks in advance
Ian

CNN in it's infinite wisdom provides much of it's video content in Windows Media Format. You CAN run the Mac version of WMP, but it doesn't seem to have a plug-in for Safari, and the streaming video they use won't open in the WMP application standalone player. Oddly enough, for some of their content, they use QuickTime. My advise - complain to CNN.

  • Cant  play  any  videos  from  you  tube  and  dailymotion

    hello  i  have  upgraded  from  win  to  windows  8 pro  x64.i  have  the  next  problem:i  cant play  any  video  from  you   tube  and  dailymotion  with  IE  10,with   firefox  i  have  not  any  problem.what  can  i do?

    Have you been able to successfully import these videos into iTunes?  If so, use iTunes built in converter to convert it to a more iTunes friendly format. To do this, highligh the video and choose "Create iPhone or iPod version" from the Advanced drop down menu in iTunes.
    When it has finished converting, try syncing the new version to your Nano.

  • Cant play this video it is damaged

    I purchased a music video from itunes store, played video dozen times or so, then tried playing it once more and box appeared informing me that it cant play video as it damaged, have sync to itunes since to update but still wont play help

    iPhoto has the ability to do a custom export of a slideshow in mpeg-4 format. Create the slideshow and then click the Export button at the bottom. Select the Custom Export... option in the resulting dialog. Look for the Export: menu and from it select Movie to MPEG-4. You can select further customization from the Options button.
    I am presuming you have the latest version of iPhoto. I don't remember how much of this earlier versions could do.
    Best of luck.

  • I cant play any videos all of a sudden after avg detected and removed a malware....

    after avg detected and removed a malware, i cant
    watch any videos... i click on a video and it tells
    me i need to downlod the latest version of flashplayer....i d
    o all that and try a video again and it tells me over and over the same thing!!!!
    i downloaded firefox and it works fine...i dont want to go around the probl
    em...i want to fix it!

    Since you mention Firefox, I assume that the original problem is with Internet Explorer?
    If so, check if that malware has the "kill-bit" set for Flash Player: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3432049#3432049
    If you find that this "kill-bit" is set in your registry, don't remove it manually (unless you are very confident editing the registry); post back here, and someone will post an easy way to remove that "kill-bit".

  • Cant play youtube videos!

    When I try to play a youtube video, It shows a black screen for couple of seconds (no buffering icon either!) and then suddenly the progress bar just jumps to the end as if it has finished playing the video. This happens for some youtube videos but the same videos can be watched in IE without any issues. I tried clearing the cookies and history, but didn't work. I am on the latest adobe flash. Is there any way to fix this? Below is a youtube video that I am trying to play but firefox doesn't wanna play it!
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEH6tDLKcVU
    Firefox: 24.0
    Flash player version: 11.8.800.168

    I think its an add-on problem, do you use any downloaders, it may have fetched the video and inform FF to stop downloading.
    Try to use firefox in safemode.
    Tell if you don't know how to start FF in safemode

  • Cant play yahoo videos

    This problem has started after a reset of my Firefox browser. After resetting the browser I wasn't able to play ESPN or Yahoo videos. I upload adobe flash player and that fixed the problem for ESPN but I'm still unable to play yahoo videos. Is there something I'm missing?

    Please also make sure that your antivirus is not blocking any content.
    Currently there have been a few updates to Adobe Flash. Please make sure that you are up to date:
    16.0.0.305
    On the yahoo site, is the plugin allowed? Please click on the plugin icon in the url bar.

  • I'm using firefox on Ubuntu. and I cant play youtube videos after first video, i have to restart mozilla to play another video.. so i need help ^^

    Firstly i passed to Linux from Windows, after that i started to renew my computer and i got a few bookmarks. A few days, i realized Youtube doesn't play. I got flash player again, and again.. At last ı could manage to play first video on youtube. I have to close the browser to play anathor video. Now I have only chance to play video on youtube without closing the browser..

    Does it work if you temporarily disable and re-enable the Flash plugin?
    *Tools > Add-ons > Plugins
    Which Flash plugin are you using on Linux?
    Is that the latest 11.2.202.236 version for Linux?
    Does it help if you install a Flash 10.3 version in the plugins folder in the Firefox Profile Folder and only enable that version?
    You need to create that plugins folder yourself and copy the libflashplayer.so file or a symlink to the file in that folder.

  • Flash player won't play CNN video

    Please help, I'm at my wits end. I've been working on this issue for a few weeks. I have Win7 / IE8 / FP 11.3.300.270
    The problem is my flash player simply refuses to play videos from CNN. Everything else works fine. I've uninstalled and installed at least 100 times-nothing. I've set and reset all the settings suggested by Adobe.com-nothing. I've read and re-read forums in Google, Adobe and anything else I can find on the 'net-nothing.
    This has become increasingly frustrating. Please help!!

    I see the player open and all the periphreals load then I get a red circle in the middle of the player that says loading. When that stops the screen is just black-no video or sound...

  • I CANT PLAY MY VIDEOS RIGHT AFTER SOME EFFECTS ON THE VIDEO premiere pro cs4

    HEY
    I can t play videos right after some effects it freeze for like half a second then  it stops by its self and I have to enter play again  its like a LAG PLEASE HELP I have xp I just bought yesterday with computer and all the requirements are done with higher speed and stronger.

    Read suggestion in post above. But main problem with that is the video card and disks setup, and XP is not very good choice for CS4 because of the memory limitations. You would be better of with Vista 32 bit or even better 64 Bit system.

  • Cant play Youtube video

    As the title indicates, I can not play You Tube video.
    Particularly this link
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08iHSCxza2o
    It works in IE (yuk!)
    All help and assistance appreciated.

    I have found the same issue for some time now. I discovered that there
    in an invisible block covering the upper area. You can still download the clip.
    There is a way for you to remove that block. Load the web page.
    After, right click on the viewer. From the Firefox option list, select
    '''Inspect Element.''' Then IMMANENTLY move the mouse off the screen.
    A sub window should now open. One of the entries should be highlighted.
    Mouse on top of that entry. Now you should see a colored block on
    the viewer. Right click on the entry. From the menu, select '''Delete Node.'''
    Most of the time, that should uncover the player. But sometimes, there
    is another block under that one. Just repeat the above.
    If you should make a mistake, do not worry. Just reload the page.

  • What do I do when i cant play a video and my laptop says i am "missing plugins" when I checked them, I only had one plugin and it was up to date. What do I do?

    my computer wont let me play any games or videos and i am not exactly "tech savvy" so if someone who has the time, please try to answer the question with a step-by-step plan.

    You run Firefox 21 on Linux on a brand new HP laptop? Because various steps are specific to your operating system, could you verify that?
    I do believe you most likely need the Flash Player plugin, which is known internally in Firefox as Shockwave Flash.
    You can use Adobe's download site to get the installer. Make sure to uncheck any unwanted extras: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
