Firefox having issues with embedded media websites

I actually have two issue which maybe the same issue.
1.
Certain sites that I regular navigate to that have some sort of embedded media, the media does not display. As an example on the site http://odb.org/, in the top left corner is a player which displays in Chrome and IE and displayed in Firefox prior to 4.0 but now only displays a white box but no play button or volume control. Other websites with different media types are blank. I have a site with code that displays an embedded interactive speaking character and the portion of the screen is should display remains blank.
2.
Second issue, maybe related is while the Firefox 4.0 appears to be fast. On the same sites with embedded media or with complex pages (probably has stuff I don't know is there), the page attempts to load and you see the waiting for or transferring message in the bottom left corner. It takes a while and then if you attempt to click anywhere on the page you get the "not responding" message but the page eventually loads possible with missing content. Heck I have this problem accessing the Firefox support page.

Nope. Went through that list before and nothing. For kicks, I try it all again. I turned off every add-on but Shockwave and that didn't work either. Also, on the Adobe Flash test page the Flash portion of the screen does not display when I use FireFox but does when I use Chrome, so I couldn't check the whole hardware acceleration setting anyway. I had reboot issues when I was forced to upgrade to Firefox. I am wondering whether my download is somehow corrupt. And if you were wondering, Safe mode didn't work either. When's the next Firefox patch. funny thing is everything worked well in Firefox 3.6 and below, so either the update to 4.0 or the download process broke something.

  • Having issues with Overdrive Media console...

    I have been using Overdrive Media Console to download audio books for about 6 months now.....but I recently upgraded to the iPhone 4S and since then, I will download books and transfer them to my iPhone, says that transfer was completed successfully, but when I unplug it from my laptop (Windows 7), they don't show up on my phone......under the audiobooks it says that I don't have any audiobooks and that I can download some in iTunes. I have done a search on the phone as well and they are not showing up at all. But when I plug it back into iTunes, there they are, right under books when I look at the content on my phone through iTunes.
    I don't really know if this is a problem with the iPhone 4S, or iOS 5........it worked with no problems at all on my old 4 and iOS 4.3.
    Any ideas why this is happening and what I can do to fix it? iTunes and Overdrive Media Console are all up to date and no settings have been changed since I last used it with my iPhone 4.
    I listen to a lot of audio books and I am getting really tired of being chained to my laptop to listen to them, either through the actual Overdrive Media Console, or through my phone, plugged in and playing through iTunes.
    Thanks for any advice on how to fix this.......

    I am having the same exact problem.  I really hope this issue gets addressed soon.  I am an audiobook junkie. For the person above.  My 3G iphone still works with the overdrive media and the new iTunes software on my computer, so I am guessing it has something to do with the iOS 5.
    This really does stink!  I listen to audio at least 7 hours a day. I answer calls as they come in with my bose headphones, and I was so looking forward to using siri with my headphones as I was driving.  Now my new phone will be in my purse and my old phone will still be connected to my hedphones listening to my audiobooks. Someday I hope to get this whole set up actually in sync and compatible with each other.  I love my new Iphone 4S though.  What an awewsome phone!!

  • I was having issues with firefox so I upgraded to firefox 4. I am connected to the internet but when I open firefox or even internet explorer it says Unable to connect problem loading page. Nothing will pull up!!! No help link or anything!!?

    I don't know if you are still having the issue but if you are have you contacted your ISP? It sounds to me like it's more of a connectivity issue than a browser problem. I've dealt with similar things several times and in both cases it was something with the modem or an ISP setting.
    I'm also wondering if it could be a Wi-Fi issue. Can you log in to your router? (It varies by brand but you would go to a site such as http://192.168.10.1. That is for Trendnet. The information for yours should be in the documentation that came with it.)
    You should be able to get the router log in page to come up even if you can't connect to any websites. (Provided the network is set up correctly.)
    I also would double check your connection settings (if you're connecting over Wi-Fi) or your ethernet connection. (If you're connected directly to the modem and router.)
    Hopefully one of these suggestions will be helpful.

    Hello, Im new to this website. Im having issues with my Macbook. I have the old 2009 model Macbook and it is our schools macbook. The school just upgraded these MacBooks to OSX Mavericks and when i try to open Minecraft it won't let me. It says no jdk installed. I also try to install Java SE runtime but half way through the Software Update it says cant download software because of network problem but I'm connected to the internet and i can browse stuff just fine. Can any one help with my problems. P.S. I don't know the administrator password or stuff like that. And yes we are allowed to play games and stuff on these laptops but only at home not at school so don't tell me i need to focus on school and not games. 

    Since you updated the operating system, it is probably Minecraft is missing certain files that ware remove or are not longer comparable with the new version of the OSX. what I recommend, is to check is there is an update for Minecraft and install that. If there is not update available, probably the best thing will be reinstalling Minecraft. Hope this will help you.   

  • Having major issues with Adobe Media Encoder (AME) - exporting with weird image flickering/colour anomalies, crashing regularly, freezing during encode...!

    Hi Guys
    I am having some real issues with Adobe Media Encoder (AME) at the moment.  It appears that I am unable to encode an h.264 for Vimeo from a Premiere Pro Project file at the moment without at least some weird image issues that are not supposed to be there.  These include weird flickering, colour changes, artefacts etc.  This is if I am lucky...often I am unable to get the process to complete as the application either crashes and tells me there has been a problem or it simply freezes and I have to force quit the application and often restart my machine.
    The problem seems to not to just be with h.264 for the web encodes but also with BluRay h.264 as well. As yet I haven't seen if there is a problem with MPEG-2 for DVD so I will check this out too!
    Does anyone else see this happening or does anyone know what might be the problem?
    I thought the Premiere Pro project might have been corrupt so tried a different project but the same issues were happening here too.
    Any help would be really gratefully received.
    Cheers
    EDIT - I have just found this online which is exactly the problem I am having! Thanks a bloody bunch Apple! 10.9.3 causing headaches for Mac Pro users | MacIssues
    Message was edited by: Alex Cameron

    Agreed, I now have a project to GET OUT, and AME crashes consistently 1/3 into the render. It appears to halt all processing after (real time) 00:02:30
    Am seriously considering uninstalling CC as I am beginning to find other issues in some apps, and going back to CS6/MC just so I can get work out. Durn it Adobe this is AWFUL!!
    Alright, let's try to be constructive instead of throwing rocks... but the frustration level is high, and I have material on deadline. Let's get with this, guys...
    What OS Win7, 64-bit
    What version of AME/PPro (Please be specific by getting the full version number in the About Adobe Media Encoder screen) 8.2.0.54 Ppro: 8.2.0 (65)
    When is it crashing (Again, the more detail here about where it was in the encoding process the better) roughly 1/3 into the sequence, always on exactly the same frame - tried replacing the clip with something different to see if it was a timeline error, and NO EFFECT.
    What is your source (PPro project or media file (what kind?)) PPro
    If the source if a PPro project, does it work when exporting directly from PPro? NO
    What format are you exporting to? H.264, QT, WM, tried everything my client can play.
    Do other formats work? MPEG2, QuickTime, etc? NO
    Have you tried with GPU rendering on? How about turning it off by switching to Software-only mode? Mine doesn't have any choice, it's software-only.
    Have you tried disabling Native Sequence Loading? (AME Preferences: General > Enable Native Sequence Loading) No effect
    Other things I tried: uninstalling/reinstalling AME, setting cache to a fast local disk.

    I just started having an issue with my bank website working properly. They have told me it is because of the last safari upgrade. Is this being resolved?

    You might want to consider "voting with your feet" and taking your business to another bank.  When they tell you the upgrade is the problem, it is really their problem and not yours.  If you don't want to do that, the suggestion that you try another browser is absolutely correct.

  • Having issues with Adobe Flash player hanging the browser

    Having issues with Adobe Flash player hanging the browser.
    WIN 7 enterprise 32 bit / Firefox 19.0.2 /
    Internal company website keeps giving attached screen shot error, and hangs the browser when error pops up.
    Steps taken:
    Uninstalled Adobe Flash player with the file “uninstall_flash_player.exe”
    Deleted provided directory in instructions
    "Copy and paste the following and click OK.
    C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash        
    Delete all the files in this folder."
    Rebooted PC and reinstalled the flash player directly from “http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html”
    Re launched company website and received same error.
    Repeated above steps as well as uninstalled Firefox browser.  Even went so far as to remove all profile information to start fresh from all profiles on the laptop with the same results.
    Note: The web page will work without the flash player plugin, and my page doesn’t hang the browser. Required to open page in FireFox per company policy.

    I'm sorry you're encountering this.  Could you paste a few of the most recent report ID links displayed when you go to "about:crashes" in the Firefox address bar?
    As for workarounds, the first thing I'd suggest is trying our 11.7 labs release which you can get here: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer.html
    If that doesn't help, please try the troubleshooting steps outlined in this FAQ:
    How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?
    In particular, I'd recommend temporarily disabling protected mode (for troubleshooting purposes only) to see if that addresses the issue.
    Thanks,

  • I am having issues with streaming music from iTunes on my MacBook Pro to my audio system through AirPlay.  Works perfectly with my iPod Touch.  The AirPlay icon appears irregularly in iTunes and when selected doesn't connect.  Running latest IOS software.

    I am having issues with streaming music from iTunes on my MacBook Pro to my audio system through AirPlay.  Works perfectly with my iPod Touch.  The AirPlay icon appears irregularly in iTunes and when selected doesn't connect.  Running latest IOS software.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    You said:
    No, I do not want to "factory reset" my iPod. No I do not wish to do anything crazy long or hard to fix this. 
    That may be necessary, It is not what you want to do/not do but what is required to resolve your problem.

  • Is anyone having issues with Android version 4.3 for Galaxy III throwing in zeroes into text messages?

    I received a message on Christmas Eve that a free update was available for my Samsung Galaxy III.  I accepted the download and discovered some enhancements and fixes that I liked (finally, my voicemail icon displays the number of waiting voicemails that I have!) but I've noticed to glaring issues:
    1. When I send text messages that include numbers (a phone number for example) the OS throws in random zeroes into the number.  I have to usually touch the ENTER key and type the number on a new line and play around with it until the number stays in the message correctly.
    2. I've had occasional lockups using the media hub which, when I do a restart, causes my settings to revert to the default factory settings....kind of a pain.
    There may be other issues. 
    Q. Has anyone out there experienced this same thing?
    Q. Is Google going to fix these issues?  I noticed that on Christmas day a half dozen or so updates were made, but these to things still are a problem. 
    Q. Also, the Verizon Wireless Software Upgrade Assistant on my laptop insists that my version is not supported.  I can still access photos and music, but it's a little annoying...

        I'm sorry you're having issues with your phone after your update BigLouie1124. I recommend enabling safe mode to see if any of your apps are causing issues with your new software. If so, you can remove them. Here are the steps http://vz.to/1cD0kqT . If you continue to have issues the last step would be a factory reset to clear up some of your issues http://vz.to/JCsr33 .

  • After the recent update I am having issues with Flash based games freezing and not responding.

    After the recent update I am having issues with flash based programs not running or loading correctly.  The programs will not load or take an extremely long time to load compared to jsut a few days ago.  This happens across the board on anything flash based.  Also, once they do load they will freeze, stop responding or need to be constantly refreshed to come back alive which is short lived at best.  I went thru the help and did all the file deleting, cache clearing, disabling hardware acceleration, removing then reinstalling flash, and even removing and reinstalling my browsers.  None of this has helped at all.  I am using Chrome and it is up to date and I checked my Flash player and it is up to date.  I am running windows 7 64bit.

    Here's what you're up against guys,
    Adobe writes the base code for Flash Player, and then hands it off to Google, who adapt it to a PPAPI plug-in (it's NPAPI when Adobe writes it). It's then "PepperFlash" and Google embeds it in their Chrome browser. While Google is pushing a "webwide" move to PPAPI Flash Content, a reinvention of the wheel so to speak, not everyone "got the memo", and Google is slowly making it so that PepperFlash will block NPAPI Flash content from running properly, and you have to disable PepperFlash to force the NPAPI plug-in to work, which sometimes fixes it, sometimes not. I have a feeling this is only going to get worse. HTML5 will eventually resolve the video end but game developers need to come up with something that won't require a plug-in.
    And to the first post:  Since PepperFlash is embedded in Chrome by Google, you can uninstall and reinstall Flash Player from here until your hard drive literally seizes up.... guess what? It has NO EFFECT at all on the PepperFlash plug-in in Chrome because it's a separate file in a separate folder and the uninstaller & installers don't have anything to do with it.

  • Having issues with clearing files off the screen, also I pad reverts to a previous screen, without any input ? Using I pad Air, latest OS just downloaded few days ago. any others with similiar problems ?

    I Pad Air, I OS 8, just download several days.  having issues with; screen reerts to a previous screen without input.  2 On Google Earth cannot get street view in "some instances", Okay on regular computer.  3. Unable to clear off screen, which causes problems trying to get to diferent website. 

    Whenever I say I "Rebooted" I always did a shut down/start up. Not a restart.
    What you said works as a temporary fix, but I don't want to keep doing it because:
    1) The drive makes a noise when the computer is shut down indicating the drive was disconnected improperly.
    2) I don't want to shut my computer off after every use, nor do I only want to back up my computer once every few days.

  • Having issues with gnome keyring

    So ever since I did a system update (-Syu) I have been having issues with my gnome keyring.
    Before I would use GDM and when I would go to type in my password the first time it would 'hang' and not respond, I would have to hit cancel and re-type in my password. If I would close my laptop lid and open it again, every time I would type in my password jt would just sit there and not respond and then I would have to reboot and go through the process again, first time doesn't work, second time it logs in, can't close laptop lid.
    So I go tired of dealing with that and got rid of GDM and just made a bash script to load X on login from tty1. This works great, just one minor annoyance. Once I log in I get this window http://imgur.com/Slj1V1d except when I try to type in the password, no matter how many tires I take, it still just hangs and sits there. I can hit cancel and go about my merry way, but its always on the back of my mind and its pretty irking. Something that I know is broken that I have to deal with everytime I use my computer can be bothersome.
    Would anyone know how I could either remove (from what I heard this wouldn't be good because gnome relies on the keyring for programs) the keyring, or delete the data with the keyring so that I could get a fresh start. I've tried seahorse, but it does the same thing as i've stated above.
    Thank you for any help!
