Flashing squares in You Tube Web Widgets

When I have opened iWeb lately I notice that the You Tube videos on my site have flashing white squares in them that were not there as recently as last week. These squares only appear in iWeb and not on the published site. The videos work fine on the site.
I have tried adding new You Tube clips and the flashing white squares appear in those as well. They do not appear in other video players in iWeb - only You Tube ones. This behavior could correlate with me having installed the latest release of Flash Player 9, 0, 115, 0 earlier this week.
Anyone had any similar experiences?
Thanks.

Whatever the cause, the issue has resolved itself since updating to OS 10.5.

maybe because it's a beta?, there may be bugs in the beta flash player.

Contact YouTube's support, your difficulties have nothing to do with Apple or your computer.

You Tube Widget - Flash Security Settings

Hello,
I managed to embed sucessfully a You Tube video by using flash factor widget. It works when published to a web server no problem. However it looks like anybody else who views it has to adjust their flash security settings.
Is there away around this issue?
Help would be greatly appreciated
Thankyou
Alison

Hi all
One way past this would be to include and install a light web server known as "Server2Go". It's pretty simple to install and it tricks the Flash Player into thinking the content is running from a server.
Site to obtain Server2Go:

You tube widget

I tried using the you tube widget, but when I ran the project, the video did not show. I have the right url, so I don't know what is going on. Has anyone successfully used the you tube widget in Captivate 7?

If you were trying to run this project locally on your hard drive or from a LAN drive then the issue is probably related to Flash Global Security.

Try uploading your published content to a web server and testing the functionality from there.

For Mac OS 10.8.2,latest flash plug in, Firefox 19 will not play any You Tube video. Am at wits end.

The video seem to load, then start, run for about 5 secs, and then stop, no more video. This is on every You Tube video I try. Your instructions-troubleshooting ideas almost never fit a Mac OS 18.8.2 with the latest Adobe flash plug in. Nothing I have seen on your troubleshooting web site solves my problem, and I do not have the time to spend on this for the rest of my life. Fix it.

I just recently registered on this forum to see if I could help with answering questions from the users here. I did this because I like the apps and aims of Mozilla, and I'm willing to spend time helping people out with using these apps if I'm able to. That being said, questions worded like the one above do not make me want to spend much time being all that helpful.
My suggestion is that you wait a few hours (or day or so) before posting about a problem that is causing some negative emotional response for you.
If anyone has the same problem as what is described above, please post more information about their software versions (i.e. flash version), and whether or not the issue remains when taking the flash plugin out of the equation and using HTML5 on youtube (http://www.youtube.com/html5).
My initial thought is that the issue is with the flash plugin being used. Has another flash version been used?

I cannot get sound from the web, you tube, etc, however, my speakers are on, my itunes play sound?

I cannot get sound from the web, you tube, etc, however, my speakers are on and my itunes play sound? What gives?

Hi,
Try the following.
First, download the Flash uninstall utility on the link below and save it to your Desktop.
Flash Player Uninstaller.
When the download has completed, close all browser windows and run the uninstaller. After this has completed, restart the notebook.
Next, download and install Firefox and then using Firefox, download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash.
Close all browser windows before running the Flash installer.
Launch Firefox and see if Youtube videos etc play Ok - if they do, close Firefox, open IE and click on the same Adobe Flash link above to get a prompt to install the ActiveX component. When done, restart IE.

Flash player 10.1 VMware fails loading pandora, you tube beffering etc.

Hi.
I'm having trouble with the latest versions of flash player.
Most things don't work, they will start to load and then just stop. E.g. pandora will get about halfway through loading the player and just stop. no error meassages or anything. You tube is similar, videos will start to buffer and play but after one or two seconds the video tries to buffer and can't (playback gets very choppy and then stops altogether).
Details
windows XP 32. running on VMWare 6.5.3 build-185404 (on red hat linux)
32 bit Flash Player 10.1.85.3
firefox (similar behaviour in IE 7
Everything was ok in version 9.x & 10.0, but once going 10.1 (53.1?) this behaviour started occuring.
Cheers

Hi all,
Since my last post, I have done some testing with old versions of the Flash player. First I completely removed the Flash installed with the Ubuntu package manager Synaptic. I then copied the tested version libflashplayer.so shared library to the Firefox plug in directory at /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins .
Version 10.0r45 is the latest version of the Flash player that works with the NWS enhanced radar animation web application. Any version 10.1 version Flash player that I can find (10.1r53_64 and 10.1r82_76).
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what is wrong or how to fix the issue? Is the NWS exploiting the security breach bug in 10.0 that version 10.1 is supposed to have fixed?
Thanks,
William

Can not view videos on you tube in firefox4 using flash player11

I'm using firefox 4 and i can not view videos on you tube.I've updated and reinstalled adobe flash player twice with no results.I've also tried the other checks,security blocking,cache,pop ups etc Works fine on IE. Hope someone has a solution.I've always liked firefox but not the newer versions and many of the changes;

I can't believe you're still running Firefox 4. Why not a newer version?
There are a number of active threads concerning the latest Flash player plugin (11.3) and the latest Firefox (12-13). Not all users are experiencing the same issues, but things to check include the following:
- Conflict with Realplayer Browser Record plugin (to disable this, open Add-ons from the orange Firefox button or the classic Tools menu and look under the Extensions and Plugins categories)
- Conflict with Flash 11.3 Protected Mode (see [http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1018071?tstart=0 Adobe Forums: How do I disable Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?])
Scanning down the front of the forums probably will yield additional suggestions: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions
Does any of that appear promising?

You Tube requires Flash update. Worked for laptop Windows 7 but not PC Windows Vista. Can you help?

You Tube said I needed latest Adobe Flash Player, so uninstalled old version and reinstalled latest version 11.6.602.171 on PC running Windows Vista Home Basic SP2 32-bit OS. My system says it's there, but it still won't work on You Tube - still get same message saying Ineed latest version.
Had same message on my Laptop running Windows 7 and it updated and works fine. I use Internet Explorer 9.
Detailed Problem Description: Problem with downloading latest Adobe Flash update and viewing YouTube. On PC running Windows Vista Home Basic SP2 32-bit OS, You Tube home page red banner at top said I needed to install latest Adobe Flash Player but even after installing, it does not work and will not play most videos in browser and shows black screen with message still asking to download latest version. Seems to be rather random as to which videos it will play and which ones it won't, although there may be some common link (see examples below). I thought it might have been HTML5 problem but I have successfully played HTML5 and Non-HTML videos through Adobe test site (Adobe Flash Player Help/Video Playback Issues) as well as Stage Videos. (Note: Had same You Tube messages when viewing on Laptop running Windows 7 but that updated without problem.)
Ran Adobe Uninstall. Closed all other programs before reinstalling direct from Adobe (rather than You Tube link). No change.
Ran all Adobe troubleshooting suggestions listed at http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/flash-player-games-video-or.html#main_2__Disable_Ac tiveX_Filtering__if_you_are_using_Internet_Explorer_9_.
Removed browsing data and deleted cache, checked that Internet Tools\Safety\Active X filtering was disabled (but in Internet Option\Security, Active X controls are enabled), disabled Hardware Acceleration, restarted computer but no change to You Tube viewing. Re-enabled, but no change. (WOULD LOVE ADVICE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE IF I SHOULD KEEP THIS ENABLED OR DISABLED.)
I have updated graphics drivers for NVIDIA GeForce 9400 GT- although had to do manually as NVIDIA auto system scan said "could not detect your GPU". Noted they said Windows Vista supports up to Direct X 10, but my system is running Direct X 11. Had optional update message for "nVidia Graphics Adapter WDDM1.1, Graphics Adapter WDDM 1.2, other Hardware NVIDIA GeForce 9400 GT" on both PC & laptop. Laptop downloaded fine. Tried to download on PC but was not successful. Error Code 80070103, possibly because system had already been updated? Current driver version 9.18.13.1407 - "Windows has determined that your current driver software is up to date".
Running Norton 360 but it did not block or indicate any problems with Flash Player download.
Problem URL: http://www.youtube.com/?utm_source=navclient (red banner at top of home page says I still need to download latest Adobe Flash).

Dear Chris,
Thanks for reply. I ran the recommened Adobe uninstall program so assumed it deleted whatever it should have, before installing new version. When it didn't work I followed instructions in Flash Player help page (screen shot below) which said to delete the Roaming App Data/Macromedia/Flash folder and Roaming App Data/Adobe/Flash folder, which I did.
Below are screen shots of C:\windows\system32\macromed\flash files as they currently stand. I have a fuzzy recollection that it was deleted at some point because I think I went searching for it during one troubleshooting session and it couldn't be found (but maybe I'm geting confused with the App Date folders?). Anyway I presume these current files are all post-reinstallation as the dates are all 5 or 6 March (did them before and after midnight). I'm on Australian time - not sure where you are. However, notice install.log date is 21/05/2010 and Flash Player Trust sub-folder is dated 6/09/2008.
When I right click on the screen of both videos that will and won't play, I just get a list of options starting at "Copy video URL" down to "About HTML5". So not sure what you mean when you say "For the videos that do play, when you right click on them what version of Flash Player is reported at the bottom of the context menu?" as I can't see any info like this. Do I click somewhere else?
If you are able to get the info you are after yourself, two videos that will work are:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLKlTN1JN7w and
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TGbrFmPBV0Y
Also, with hardware acceleration enabling or disabling, the only place I can find to do this is through the Adobe Flash Help page http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/flash-player-games-video-or.html#main_2__Disable_Ac tiveX_Filtering__if_you_are_using_Internet_Explorer_9_
and right clicking on the Flash Player info box, going into Settings and checking or unchecking the Enable box. Do you know if there is another setting in my actual computer where I can do this and or there's some other setting I need to change? There doesn't seem to be anything similar when I go through Conrol Panel - Flash Player.
5. Delete all Flash Player browsing data
a.. Click Start > Control Panel.
b.. Double-click Flash Player.
c.. In the Flash Player Setting Manager, click Advanced.
d.. Under Browsing Data and Settings, click Delete All.
6. Remove Flash Player cache
a.. On your computer, select Start > Run. (On Windows 7, click Start and type in Search Programs and Files.)
b.. Type %appdata%\Adobe and click OK.
c.. Delete the Flash Player folder.
d.. Repeat step 1 and type %appdata%\Macromedia.
e.. Delete the Flash Player folder.

Can No Longer View You Tube w/OS10.3.9 Nor Update Flash Player. Suggestions

I have a PowerBook G4, OS10.3.9 and primarily use Firefox as a browser. Yesterday when attempting to view a video on You Tube, the following message appeared: “Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player.” When I clicked the Flash Player link, my browser was unable to access the Adobe download page (it continuously tried but never succeeded in “reading” the page). I typed in the URL for the download page with the same results. I then tried my Safari browser but it, too, was unable to read the download page. Finally I used Internet Explorer and was able to access the page but there was a notice from Adobe saying in essence they were discontinuing support of Flash Player 7 and recommending updating to the latest version (the heading on the page was “Flash Player 7 for Unsupported Operating Systems”). However, clicking the link provided only took me back to the same page with the same notice. Finally I was able to access an “Archived Flash Player” page where I downloaded various versions on Flash Player 7, 8, and 9, but in each instance I was taken to an Adobe page saying the download was successful and recommending I now update to the latest version. Clicking the link provided however resulted in being returned to the original “Flash Player 7 for Unsupported Operating Systems” page and I was still unable to view You Tube regardless of the browser employed. Is there now no way to view You Tube and use the latest version of Flash Player with an OS10.3.9? Can anyone offer suggestions as to how I might resolve this problem? Please accept my apologies if this issue has already been fully or partially addressed in a previous post. Thanks much.

Hi Dan,
Thanks for the useful info. Unfortunately, it did not solve my problem. After completing all 6 steps you outlined, I tried to view a video on You Tube and got the same "you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player" message and, once again, when I clicked the link both Firefox and Safari were unable to successfully access/read the Adobe download page (indeed, I cannot even access adobe.com with my Firefox and Safari browsers and had to use Internet Explorer to download the latest Flash Player and even then, I could not do it from the regular download button but had to go to the "Archived Flash Player" page on the tech support site). There were several folders in the "Flash Player 9 Debug Archive" zip file I downloaded (9r115, 9r15, 9r16, 9r28, 9r45, 9r47, 9r48) and within each of the folders several different installers (while I downloaded and installed "flashplayer9r115macdebug.dmg" there was also a "flashplayer9r115ub_macdebug.dmg" installer in the same folder and, of course, a great many other installers in the various other aforementioned folders). BTW, I originally downloaded the "Flash Player 9 Archive" zip file on the Archived Flash Player page but when attempting to install the 9r115 version from this file, the downloading sequence would not fully complete and stalled at the 3 items remaining stage, so I downloaded the aforementioned Flash Player 9 Debug Archive and was able to successfully (or so it seemed) download the 9r115 version from it, but still could not view flash content as described above. Do you (or any of the other discussion participants) have any further suggestions? Thanks for your time and consideration.

You Tube videos no longer work after Flash Player upgrade

I am running Win XP 2002 with SP3 and Firefox 3.6.15. I just upgraded flash player and now the You Tube videos no longer display. The You Tube sound works. IE has not be affected and I can see the You Tube videos. Firefox does display videos from Netflix and news sites but not You Tube. Your company wants $39.00 to solve a problem that is the result of your efforts, not mine. I think that is wrong. So what do I do so I can resume using Firefox to view You Tube videos?

To eidnolb/anyone else who can help?
I am having a great deal of issues trying to sort out the flash player. Tried uninstalling/reinstalling the flash player, however I still get the same messages on sites such as youtube, bbc that I do not have the correct version installed and to install version 10.
I notice that you have mentioned to right click the flash symbol and then on to settings on the link page that you provided, unfortunately, all i can see is a plain box with a cross in the top left hand corner, and when i right click, there is no Settings option. i have run malware and other sytem scans and have removed any issues that there might have been, all still to no avail.
Any further help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

How does one update Flash? I currently cannot watch videos on You Tube, it says I need to upgrade, I have no problem doing this on a PC.

If you're not using chrome you can just go to adobe's website (http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/) and download the newest flash player. You run the .dmg and then open the application, which updates flash. With the latest version of flash there should be a preference pane within system preferences to allow you to change settings and check for updates.
