Flash Doesn't Work in Safari - Need Info On QuickTime MIME settings I think

Hey Friends,
I just upgraded to Leopard, LOVE IT but some of my favorite sites now come up with a ghosted QuickTime logo and question mark. I've had this issue before with FireFox and I never figured out how to configure my preferences to correct this.
I think it has to do with my QuickTime preferences and MIME settings. Possibly my Safari preferences. Can someone advise the correct configuration? I would really appreciate the assistance. No YouTube+ No WatchTVSitcoms.com+No CNN.com=NO FUN

These are the downloads and the settings you need in order to view/hear pretty much everything that the net can throw at you: The setup described below has proved repeatedly successful on both PPC and Intel macs, but nothing in life carries a guarantee!
Assuming you already run Tiger versions OS 10.4.9 or above (this has not yet been verified with Leopard) and have Quicktime 7.2, and are using Safari 2 or 3, download and install (or re-install even if you already had them) the latest versions, suitable for your flavor of Mac, of:
RealPlayer 10 for Mac from http://forms.real.com/real/player/blackjack.html?platform2=Mac%20OS%20X&product= RealPlayer%2010&proc=g3&lang=&show_list=0&src=macjack
Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/wmcomponents.mspx (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft)
Perian from http://perian.org/
Adobe FlashPlayer from http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
In Quicktime Preferences, under advanced, UNcheck Enable Flash, and under Mime settings/Miscellananeous only check Quicktime HTML (QHTM).
In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them).
Now go to Safari Preferences/Security, and tick the boxes under Web Content (all 4 of them).
Lastly open Audio Midi Setup (which you will find in the Utilities Folder of your Applications Folder) and click on Audio Devices. Make sure that both Audio Input and Audio Output, under Format, are set to 44100 Hz.
Important: Now repair permissions and restart.
The world should now be your oyster!
You should also have the free VLC Player from http://www.videolan.org/ in your armory, as this plays almost anything that DVD Player might not.

  • I have latest version of flash but flash doesn't work in safari!

    Why do I have latest version of flash but flash doesn't work in safari!I have flash for mac.Your help will be appreciated.

    If you're talking about using Flash on your iPod, you can't. There is no version of Flash that will work on any iOS device. If you're talking about using Flash on your computer, you may want to repost in the correct forum.

  • Flash doesn't work in safari

    When I try to play a video, a box appears saying the latest version of Flash needs to be installed. I installed it repeatedly, but the same message keeps coming up. The same video works fine in Firefox. Anyone know what might be wrong? Thanks for your help!

    Make sure that box next to "Enable plug-ins" is checked.

    Best.

  • HT5655 Flash still doesn't work with Safari.

    I've done this repeatedly. Flash still doesn't work with Safari. It does work with Firefox and Chrome.
    I deleted the Flash plugin from Library>Internet Plugins. That didn't solve the problem either.
    What can I try next? Thanks.

  • Why Position:Relative from CSS doesn't work at Safari 5.03?

    If you watch my web page: http://clubdeleonesst.tk
    I designed a ComboBox and have some problems with position relative. I used jQuery to create it, you could watch the original example here:
    http://www.marghoobsuleman.com/jquery-image-dropdown
    And I have been watching that the transparency from Flash doesn't work too. I hope you can solve these bugs.

    The "disappearing" affect you describe is not normal. You may need to reinstall Safari.
    First, try removing the Apple cookies from your Safari Preferences>Security>Cookies panel. Also, go to your Safari Menu and Empty cache. Then try to log-on to Apple Discussions.
    Also, regarding the "disappearing" effect, try Safari from another User Account.
    Here is guidance from Apple on how to set up the account. You can ignore step 7 in the article.
    Also, on the system preference>Accounts panel, click on "log-in" options. There, select "fast user switching". This allows you to go back and forth between user accounts via an icon in your Menu Bar at the top of the computer screen.
    Log-on to the new account and start Safari. If Safari is stable in the new account, then your problem is specific to your regular user account. Otherwise, similar response means a system-wide problem.
    Post back with results.

  • Flash player doesnt work on safari, even with the last version 11.6

    hello,
    Since yesterday, my flash player doesnt work on safari (OS X10.8.2). I tried to update flash with the last version (11.6) from adobe website, but i still have the same probleme.  Can you please help me ?
    Thank you

    If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 4.
    1. If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then from the menu bar select
     ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser.
    2. Triple-click the line below to select it:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
    Services ▹ Open
    from the contextual menu. A folder should open. If there is more than one item in the folder with the words "Flash Player" (not "flashplayer") in the name, open the respective Info windows, check the version numbers, and delete all except the latest. You may be prompted for your login password.
    3. Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from this page:
    Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player
    Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
    4. If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked Enable plug-ins.
    5. Select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
    6. In the Safari preference window, select
    Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    Close the window. Then select
     ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.

  • Paypal button doesn't work on Safari. but works on Firefox

    I have over 100 pairs of "Add to Cart" buttons on my website. One of each is on the individual item page and the other is on my Order Form.
    I have one button that works on the order form, but the identical button doesn't work on the individual page when using SAFARI, but works when I use FIREFOX!
    I have recreated the button several times and put it in the proper place several times, saved the changes and republished. Still it doesn't work in Safari!
    This must be a Safari issue not a PayPal issue
    Any suggestions?

  • Flash doesn't work in Firefox 13

    Installed Firefox 13 yesterday. Now flash doesn't work. Have done all the supposed fixes to no avail. Have uninstalled and reinstalled flash. I'm at my wits end with this issue. I'm a web designer who uses flash in a number of my sites. VERY IRRITATING when my sites don't display properly. Anyone have a solution other than the pat Mozilla "fixes"?

    I received a PM from '''CheckMate''' about this thread. Since this is something that I think should be discussed openly I'll reply here.
    The ActiveX plugin (npmozax.dll) issue is now fixed via the Mozilla blocklist, which automatically disables it. For some background on the ActiveX plugin issue, see [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/forums/contributors/708425 Blocking the old ActiveX plugin] in the contributor's forum thread.
    The Flash 11.3 Firefox protected mode problem is a separate issue and one related bug is [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=747683 747683] So, if you did have the ActiveX plugin installed and it is now disabled, AND you have Flash 11.3 installed, then the issue is no longer the ActiveX plugin.
    If the problem is Flash 11.3 protected mode (or other issues with Flash 11.3) it's not a good idea to suggest downgrading to 11.2.202.235. The reason why uninstalling Flash and going to a page that requires Flash installs an older version is because the Plugin Finder Service hasn't been updated yet! This is from http://kb.mozillazine.org/Flash#Installing_Flash_on_Windows <br>
    '''Quote:'''<br>
    ''If the Flash plugin is not installed and you visit a page that has Flash content that requires the plugin, the Plug-in Finder Service can download and install Flash for you (see [https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Installing+the+Flash+plugin Installing the Flash plugin (Firefox Support)] for more information). If you want to try this method and Flash is already installed, you can [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Flash#Uninstalling_Flash uninstall Flash] and then visit [http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ Adobe's Flash test page] to launch the Plugin Finder Service ; however, it may offer you an outdated version.''
    The alternative (disabling Flash 11.3 protected mode by editing an obscure file) is not good either. I don't know what to suggest in those cases. I think it would be a good idea if you could bring this up in the SUMO Community Discussions forum. There's already a topic started on Flash 11.3 issues, here:
    *https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/forums/contributors/708430 Flash 11.3 issues (was: flash 11.3 released)
    Here is your original message, for reference:
    ''Hi, Alice- You locked the thread on the Adobe Flash Plugin update 11.300.257 not working question but you really shouldn't have for the following reasons. First, although I too found today that the Active X has been blocked as of June 7, the problem persists and the instruction is to contact the manufacturer. How about contacting Adobe and straightening this out on the Developer level instead of closing the thread because there's another temporary but much simpler solution that I found. Second, the instructions on how to disable Protected Mode are nuts. I'm pretty advanced, but my common sensed tells me this is too complicated to bother with and shouldn't be necessary and you yourself say this isn't a permanent fix. Third, I found a much simpler solution, at least until this bug is fixed. Completely uninstall the Plugin from the Add and Remove Programs list. Then, when you try to access any video on YouTube which uses the Plugin, Firefox reports that it needs an additional Plugin to play the video (look specifically for the FF blue plugin icon). When you click on it, it automatically downloads the PREVIOUS VERSION, 11.2.202.235 which works perfectly. But if you click on the warning below it that Adobe Flash is needed, the buggy 11.3.300.257 version will be installed again! This has to be fixed by the Developers. Until it is, the fix is simply to roll back the faulty update, which could have also been done with a restore point but I wanted to find the cause. FF apparently knows automatically that this plugin is faulty and installs the previous version, but the other instruction is contradictory and installs the 11.3.300.257 Nice!?!? ''

  • CMD+ any shortcut doesn't work in Safari after upgrading to Yosemite

    After upgrading from Mavericks to OS X Yosemite 10.10 not a single CMD+ shortcut works?!
    For example CMD+tab works (switching between apps), ctrl+tab works (switching between tabs), but none of these work: CMD+W, CMD+Q, CMD+F, CMD+C, CMD+X, CMD+P...
    They all work perfectly fine in all other apps. It's just Safari.
    Does anyone have any idea why and how to fix this?

    I have a similar pb :
    CMD+SHIFT+1,2,3,... doesn't work in safari.
    I'm using "English interface" with "French keyboard".
    following miladc advice and link (Shortcuts not working on Safari and Firefox),
    I changed my Language pref to French ... so I got "French interface" with "French keyboard" ... and it worked once !!!!
    But it works no more ... very weird
    All I want to do, it's having shortcut for my bookmarklet !

    Sorry to hear about this problem. What site are you trying to log in on? Is it a Mozilla site? Usually you don't need to register or sign in to a Mozilla site to use Firefox. Usually you can just go straight to where you want to go.

  • Flash player not working in Safari 3.1.1

    I just installed the Safari 3.1.1 (5525.18) update and I no longer have a working Flash player.
    I tried reinstalling the latest Adobe Flash player (9 UB), to no avail. I even tried rebooting (out of habit from my Windows days) with unsurprisingly little luck.
    Flash used to work in Safari before 3.1.1. It still works in Firefox 2.0.0.14.
    Any ideas? Is this a permissions issue?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Thanks.
    No problems with Flash 9.0.124 here.
    Do you have Case-sensitive Journaled Mac OS Extended filesystem? I do.
    Because my friend's MB has Case-insensitive Journaled Mac OS Extended filesystem and Flash is working fine with 3.1.1 on 10.5.2. Also Adobe Creative suite CS2 programs work fine in her MB, but don't even start up on my MBP.
    Just a thought.
    Possibly. Did you repair permissions? If not, do so as any Flash install requires this step.
    I have now. First I ran repair permissions with Disk utility, got some promising repair stuff like
    18.4.2008 14.52.55 Disk Utility[282] User differs on "Library/Internet Plug-Ins/Flash Player.plugin/Contents/Resources/Flash Player.rsrc", should be 0, user is 501.
    Repair finished fine and Flash still didn't work. So I did un unistall with the Adobe Flash uninstall tool, a reboot (again, out of habit), a reinstall and a further repair permissions, again with a couple of User differs messages.
    Yet, Flash still does not work.
    Any further ideas? Or tips on how I could try debugging this? Console gives me squat.
