Fire fox wont play youtube video on a driod tablet

Hello abpd7414,
What is the exact error message you are receiving? A screenshot would also help us help you out easier. If it is asking you to use the Youtube application, please do that as it works better than the mobile site of Firefox.

  • Safari wont play YouTube Videos.

    They wont load or play, so I have to use Chrome or Firefox. Any ideas? I have noticed this the past few weeks, what gives? I checked all my software, everything is up to date..

    The Flash plug-in failure on Lion, is a Safari issue that can be fixed with these steps:
    My Flash Player plug-in would not play videos on YouTube (using Safari in Lion). It turned out that my Safari settings needed to be reset after the recent Lion 10.7.4 and Flash upgrades.  I called Apple tech...
    This is what we did to fix it:
    1. Open Safari.
    2. Go to top left menu, under "Safari" click on "Reset Safari."
    3. UNCHECK the first two boxes, leave the next three checked, plus UNCHECK the next two, and keep the last three checked.
    4. Hit "Reset"
    5. After the reset finishes, Safari will relaunch and you can test Flash by going to YouTube to see that videos will now play.
    Thanks Apple Care!

  • Google tv wont play youtube/videos

    I have google tv I can no longer watch any videos or stream music & a pop up comes up stating I need to get flash player , but when I click on the link it says I alredy have flash player instaled on my gooogle chroome browser. So how do I fix this because it wont install something it says I already have? Also I have cleared everything out & restarted the google tv back to factory settings with no results.

    Hi ldv22,
    It's possible that you could have disabled Flash Player in Chrome. To reenable it:
    Type “about:plugins” (without the quotation marks) into the address bar at the top of a Chrome browser window.
    Click “Details” at the upper-right corner of the page.
    Find the “Flash” (or “Shockwave Flash”) listing on the Plug-ins page and click the corresponding “Enable” button.
    Close all Chrome windows and restart the browser.

    Maybe just try the dedicated YouTube App on the iPhone. It is one of the Stock iPhone Apps. See if this can play the files/videos you want.

  • Why won't Firefox for Android on my Kindle Fire HD play YouTube videos?

    The default browser (Silk) on the Kindle Fire HD plays YouTube videos. Both Firefox for Android and Silk obviously use the same operating system and hardware. What needs to be done to/with the Firefox for Android browser so that it will play YouTube videos. Firefox on my desktop machine plays YouTube videos.

    There is the old insecure Flash 11.1 Plugin that Adobe (and Google Play) has not supported since Android 4.0. As long as you have Android 4.3 or older then you can get the Flash plugin to work in manual install though Android 4.4 has made it so Flash will not work.
    However Mozilla has made a workaround for Flash can still work in Firefox on Android 4.4 in as early as Firefox 27.0 if I recall.
    There is this thread on getting Flash installed however the poster mentions Dolphin and not Firefox instead.
    http://www.amazon.com/forum/kindle?_encoding=UTF8&cdForum=Fx1D7SY3BVSESG&cdThread=TxTR71JR4GVXQM
    Not that some sites (News sites are among some I encountered) have since lately been requiring users using Flash 11.1 on Android, PlayBook and Flash 11.2.x on Linux to upgrade to more current (not possible) to view their Flash videos.

  • Why wont embedded youtube videos play on ipad

    why wont embedded youtube videos play on ipad

    Hi..
    Try troubleshooting the Flash plugin which is required for most YouTube cotent as well as other sites.
    Quit Safari.
    Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Storage tab. Click: Delete All
    Now uninstall the Flash plugin then reinstall new >  Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
    Very important to uninstall first.
    Launch Safari From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
    Now try a video.
    BTW... if you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
    And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to:  Open in 32 bit mode  is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.

  • Why won't my macbook pro play youtube videos?

    Why wont my macbook pro play youtube videos????
    I bought this over the summer and it's now Nov 28th. I've had it with this thing and nobody is answering my question! Please help!
    I reset safari, emptied my cache, cleared my history, uninstalled and re-installed flash player and nothing has helped. In fact, un/reinstalling flash player worsened the problem. And I cannot update it becuase it says "not recognized".
    I do have avast anti-virus: but I can't fix the warnings in it (after I scan, some warnings popup and it wont let me fix it and I have no idea where to find it in the computer itself). Does this have anything to do with it? I need virus protection, so I dont want to get rid of it.
    I do not have the money to buy firefox (and it's never worked for me ever anyways).
    I know it's not my internet because my dad's pc works great and my sister's mac (for school) loads youtube videos instantly.
    I also have this annoying issue where every page on the interned needs to be reloaded three times before itll load the first time. It sits there for five minutes and does nothing, then I reload the page and BAM its loaded: EXCEPT YOUTUBE.
    For a $1400 machine, I'd like to know what and why this is happening.

    Perhaps there is something wrong with your software and/or a corrupt cache file outside of the browser.

    Hmm hard to tell what's causing this. May have to do a process of elimination to cure everything on the machine.

    Uninstall the anti-virus, they always cause issues on Mac's.
    You say you need anti-virus, so install the free ClamXav, it's a program you run as you need it, because 99% of the malware out there is for Windows and won't run on a Mac, thus you can just run ClamXav when you need it on where you need it. Won't bugger up the machine.
    I do not have the money to buy firefox (and it's never worked for me ever anyways).
    Firefox is a free web browser by the open source community, it's very powerful and highly customizable with more add-ons, extensions, personas, themes than any other browser. Some things  can be done on Firefox can't be done on any other browser at all. Certainly for someone who is a bit more seasoned to use it fully.

    You mentioned your "dad" and you've mentioned a delay loading pages and not YouTube at all.
    Are you by any chance the Administrator of the computer? Can you install Firefox if you wanted too just as a experiment or does it ask for a Admin name and password and you can't provide it?
    "Nannyware" has the ability to block sites and slow down page draws as it's consulting with the nannyware company if that site is suitable to be loaded on your machine.
    If your are the Admin of the machine, then your going to have to methodically go through the fix it list I've generated here to resolve your issue as I cant' tell what's causing your problem specifically behind a screen.
    If it's too much for you, take the machine to a local Mac/PC software repair shop and they can fix you up.
    I suspect by #12 your machine will be fixed.

  • How do I stop Thunderbird playing youtube videos in a tab

    For ages I've been trying to get Thunderbird to work how it used to work but I seem to be fighting a loosing battle. I have done everything I can do to try and stop Thunderbird from ever using tabs. The latest thing I'm trying to stop is Thunderbird playing YouTube videos in a tab. Often I get emails with videos in them that play really small. If I click in the fullscreen option in the video it doesn't work and I've no idea why? So I click on the YouTube link in the video and I want it to open in Firefox. But instead it opens in a tab. This would be okay except that it plays really slowly and I can't reposition the tab. This is one of the reasons why I hate tabs in Thunderbird. I want to read things (or watch videos) in the centre of my screen, not where Thunderbird decides to open a tab, which is usually in the top right of my screen. With a very large screen it is much more frustrating than it would be on a laptop or other small screen.
    Can someone please tell me how to fix this?
    Another thing I would like to fix is the search function. I use search all the time and it is very powerful/useful. But again, when I click on the search results it opens the result in a tab. It would be okay if it opened a tab in the search results window but it opens the tab in the main Thunderbird window. It may also be okay if search opened a tab. But opening search in a new window and then showing the search items in a tab on the main window is just so frustrating. It almost makes me want to stop using search. I looked at using X Search Desktop for search but it no longer supports Thunderbird.
    Again, can someone please tell me how to fix this?
    I absolutely love Thunderbird but I really wish it were possible to roll back the changes that have been made in a number of areas. I spend so much time looking for add-ons just to get it back to how it used to be. With every new version there seems to be another change to the interface. I have to use "manually sort folders" just to get the folders to be in the order I want them. Like everyone else I want the security fixes that come with new versions but I don't want interface changes forced on me for no reason.
    But now so many add-ons seem to stop working with each new release. I used to have an add-on that provided two simple buttons to increase/decrease the text size of incoming emails/RSS feeds. It also allowed me to set the font size/type I wanted for each incoming email/RSS feed and overide whatever was originally set. That stopped working a while back and I'd love to know if there is an alternative. Some RSS feed fonts are now set for smart phones and are simply massive in Thunderbird.
    If anyone can help me with these issues I'd be most grateful.

    You can check the home page (startup) setting:
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page - Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' symbols

  • I have windows 8.1 and firefox won't play youtube videos but IE will

    I have windows 8.1 and firefox won't play youtube videos but IE will. I have tried reinstalling firefox, flash, java. Resetting firefox don't help, disabled hardware acceleration, protected mode 0 in the mms.cfg file. Nothing will play on youtube in firefox. It says "an error has occured, please try again later". The ads play fine though. Everything plays fine in IE. I have tried different versions of flash also with no luck. I even restored the system to a previous iso image with no luck. Does anyone have a solution?

    It maybe because your javascript is disabled .
    You can check the javascript.enabled pref on the about:config page.
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
    There are also extensions that can block JavaScript or otherwise interfere.

    Or,
    "Clear the Cache":
    Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    Firefox > Preferences > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Start Firefox in [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode Safe Mode] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

    If you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. Safari > Preferences > Extensions
    It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
    Try uninstalling the currently installled Flash plugin (required for most YouTube content) then reinstall new >  Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
    From your Safari menu bar top of your screen click Safari > Preferences then select the Advanced tab.

  • Unable to play youtube videos after OS 10.2.1.2977 update

  • Is it possible to play youtube video in safari browser on WiFi in iOS devices ?

    Hello Support,
    I have a query regarding playing you tube videos in iOS devices (like iphone,ipad). I can able to play youtube videos in safari browser in iphone on 3G data connection but can not play the same video on WiFi. I am facing the same issue in the youtube iOS application also. Is it possible to play youtube video on WiFi in iOS devices ? Please help me to fix this issue.
    Thanks

    My understanding is that you should definitely be able to play youtube videos using a Wi-Fi network. To me, it sounds as though the issue may be more network related as the videos will work over cellular data. I have a couple questions I believe could help narrow down the exact issue:
    • Is the device able to browse to other websites while connected to Wi-Fi, or will no sites work?
    • Are there other devices (iPads, iPhones, computers, etc) that work on the same Wi-Fi network?
    These are some troubleshooting articles that come to mind as well:

  • Up until 6 hours ago I was able to play youtube videos now I cant in firefox I have no problem playing them in google chrome or IE .But if I am in firefox all I get is a black screen no picture ,no sound, no bar at the bottom. Need suggestion

    I am not able to play youtube videos. No picture no sound

    I should have explained further. The game opens in a new window over to the upper left of my screen, leaving the original page underneath. I tried minimizing it so that I could get to my toolbar and did the View > Zoom > Reset. This has no effect. The lower portion of the game is still not showing. Using other browsers the window or frame of the game is much larger, therefore everything shows.
