Facebook Videos not playing

Since updating to 4.3 for some reason I can't play any videos from facebook. When I click on a video the Movie app launches but then it just continuously says Loading Video...
I've tried doing a factory reset, clearing cache of facebook and movies. I've uninstalled all facebook updates and tried the latest beta version but nothing seems to be doing the trick.
Anyone had similar issues or any ideas?

Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
To check if this is some kind of combo issue bewteen the movie app and Facebook try downloading any other media player from Google Play store and chose to launch the Facebook videos using that one. See if the same problem appears.
If yes it's probably an issue with the network (mobile or Wi-Fi) or the Facebook app.

Facebook videos not playing on iPad Air(safari browser)

Why do my Facebook videos not play in iPad Air(safari browser) but same video play nicely on iPhone 4(safari browser). It asks me to download flash player to play on iPad but plays fine on iPhone without giving any prompt to download flash player.

You should not have trouble playing using the FaceBook app.

Facebook videos not playing in firefox. IE plays them fine, also no problem with youtube videos in firefox.

Facebook videos are not playing in firefox, it plays youtube videos fine. The fb videos start to load and after that just a black screen remains.
No such issues in IE, I've no addons installed, flash player is latest, and tried by enabling/disabling the block popups option.
Thanks in advance.

You can try to disable the hardware acceleration in the Flash Player.

Facebook videos not playing in safari

Hi guys.
I have had an issue with safari for a while where facebook videos (i.e. flash) won't load. there's just a black space where the video should be. I tried uninstalling flash, resetting safari etc. to no avail. I gave up and used chrome instead which works fine.
Yesterday I bought a nice shiny new retina macbook pro and when I first booted it as it was downloading yosemite, the videos worked fine in facebook once I downloaded flash. Now I have transfered all my settings/apps/files etc from the time machine backup, the videos have stopped working. I have uninstalled everything adobe, reinstalled flash only, gone into the library and deleted the safari files etc. and this has had no effect (other than my frustration levels).
I have tried the delete all option in the flash settings, and the videos didn't work when I didn't have chrome installed.
Can any one help? It's pretty irritating....

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
If you wish, you may be able to salvage the errant extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.

Videos on Facebook are not playing

Videos on Facebook are not playing when I am connected to AirPort Extreme. They are working on LTE. Any advise? Please help

Yeah strange isnt it? I just tried it with my wife's 5C iOS 8.1.2 and it works perfectly and my lads iPad mini 3 is perfect too. It's just my iPhone 6,I have tried everything resetting network settings, hard reboot, remove/reinstall app, different updates of FB app. I am now leaning towards a full factory reset of i6 does anyone else have a clue as to why just the iPhone is affected?

Facebook videos not loading, Firefox 31 or 32

Had FF 31 and Facebook videos never played, so updated to 32 no change. After update to 32, Adobe Flash 15 current, cookies and cache cleaned, hardware acceleration turned OFF on TOOLS,FLASH SETTINGS and CONTROL PANEL, and restarted with add-ons disabled - still no luck. This was not a problem with FF 28 nor currently a problem with Google Chrome.
Videos play on YouTube and other websites.

One advantage of having TASK MANAGER constantly running in the background, I can tell what is too much, or no, CPU usage at all times with the browser and/or plugin container. Keeping the process sorted in alphabetical order makes it easier for general checks with the option to sort by CPU usage from highest to lowest. Same for any process.
Typically, when I'm not doing anything, neither should Firefox which is usually 3% - 4% CPU usage except for a few momentary push notifications from emails and Facebook if loaded.
Whereas a lot of people on this forum reported high CPU usage and freezes, etc. they never reported whether it was the browser, plugin container or both to give an idea of where to start troubleshooting.
In my own case above, there was no CPU usage on with the plugin container on my main profile with the black video screens and a varying 37% + on the alternate profile when it was working. This was one possible indication that Flash was not ruining, possibly an indication that the video never downloaded with the new update discrepancies.

When using ipad4, why do videos not play on Google? Audio works fine

WWhen using ipad,why do videos not play on Google? Audio still plays. I have reset the Google app and it will be ok for short time but then reverts back to not playing videos.

Hi Vernon70,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that an application you downloaded from the App Store, Google, is not functioning as you would expect. In this situation, I would recommend following the troubleshooting steps outlined in the attached article.

Embedded MP4 videos not playing in iOS Safari

Hi everyone,
I'm having a problem with embedded MP4 videos (e.g. YouTube videos) not playing correctly in Safari. When I try to play one, I get one of two problems:
1. On my (first gen) iPad, Safari usually crashes.
2. On my iPhone 4, videos will load but only play audio, not video, though when I tap on the screen the "play" and "pause" symbols appear.
Has anyone else run into this problem? Or know how to fix it?
Thanks,
Mike

Ok, I fixed it. Go to some embedded Flash video, click to run and then right click to get Global Settings for Flash. Go into Storage and make sure you aren't blocking any data from being stored on your computer. At the very least choose the "ask me" setting. (For good measure I also went into Advanced and clicked to Delete All Data associated with Flash. But when I restored Block for data storage the videos stopped working, so that seems to be the answer.) I'd be interested to hear if this works for others.

Why are my videos not playing the right way up

Why are my videos not playing the right way up

I took four video clips while on a trip this week. Two are oriented the right way (playing wide on the device and imported correctly). The other two are Tall and not oriented right. Orientation is 90 degrees to the right. I don't know why this is happening on occasions. Even some pictures I took did the same **** thing. It's weird. And I can't figure it out. The camera is held the way I want the pictures and videos to be recorded and played but something internal is turning these videos and pictures 90 degrees clockwise.

sharankumar1, which phone model do you use? Nokia phones are a bit picky about the file content, the codec. If you tell me your model, I tell you the available codecs. In the meantime, you have to convert your videos …

U310 Touch - Videos not playing after 8.1 Update

Hello,
I have updated from Windows 8 to 8.1 and updated all my drivers on my U310 Touch.
However, I seem to have a problem with web based videos not playing videos on the internet.
This seems to happen on every kind of web browser, including IE, Firefox, Chrome, and even Steam.
If anybody knows how to fix this problem, that'll be great.
Thanks in advance.

Since the upgrade to 8.1.1 my iPhone 6 stopped recognising the fingers I had stored. I've deleted and addrd them again (which went as norma) and it still has problems recognising them. Seems very intermittent now, whereas before this upgrade was very reliable.
I've reverted to a pin code :-(

DVDSP Help - Video not playing in Viewer during some assets, only audio...

Video not playing in Viewer during some assets, only audio until paused. once you hit the space bar or pause, the video shows up in viewer? same results when burnd to disc.
when dragging cursor through out timeline (track 1) video shows up in viewer fine too.
any advice on what could be wrong?

thanks!

Hi Crazy Dan:
It's a kind of bug in DVDSP Simulator. If you build your project in your hard drive and test it with DVD Player all video will play fine.
I would like to tell you where exactly the problem is located, but it's just a Simulator problem.
Try building your project.
Hope that helps !
Alberto
