HI and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
Try the 10.6.2 combo update available here.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL959
It's ok to do this even though you are already running 10.6.2 The update includes Safari plug-in reliability.
If that doesn't help try ...
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset.
Go here for trouble shooting 3rd party plugins or input managers which might be causing the problem.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1594
If you are running Safari in 64 bit mode, try running in 32-bit mode instead. Right or control click the Safari icon in the Applications folder, then click: Get Info In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle next to General so it faces down. Select 32 bit mode. Also, (in that same window) make sure *Safari is NOT running in Rosetta.*

  • Transcribing WMA tapes and Flip for Mac message?

    After a recent upgrade to 10.9 I have had a repetitive message overlaid when I transcribe WMA tapes from a DSS player: 'this is a demonstration of Flip for Mac.' It seems to come and go though, this morning it repeated throughout a whole transcription, then when I replayed the tape the message had disappeared, but played over a tape I transcribed yesterday which was message free.
    As I recall as part of the installation of the system upgrade I was asked to remove Flip for Mac and the install it again, but that is a bit hazy.
    I have spoken with Olympus and upgraded their software for my recordning machine.
    Do I need to use Flip for Mac at all and is that a change introduced by Apple in the last system update? It is making the daily job I do of transcribing more than a little frsutrating.

    Are these tracks copy-protected (they almost certainly will be if they were purchased from a download store)? If so, then there's no way to play them in Mac OS X.

  • No Audio with Flip for Mac, MIDI Settings Seem OK

    Hello,
    I am using Flip for Mac to stream Windows content. On most sites (You Tube etc.) it seems OK. On some however, the video plays fine, but there is no audio.
    Since the video streams fine, I assume it is not a DRM issue. The MIDI Audio Input is set at 44100Hz. The MIDI Audio Output window says 'Output is not supported.' I only use the internal speakers and don't have any external ones connected to perhaps the MIDI Output is irrelevant.
    But, is this more of a QuickTime7.2 compatability issue? I am only running a lower version of Flip for Mac, none of the 'Pro' upgrades so did not think it would be an issue. Are there any other common settings one should double check?
    Many thanks.

    Hi DG!
    No, not a DRM issue, and you have set the midi-player settings correctly. For the full nine yards, try this:
    These are the downloads and the setup you need in order to view/hear pretty much everything:
    Assuming you already run OS 10.4.9 or above 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 from http://uk.real.com/player/
    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 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.

    Flash Player Protected Mode provides a modern, sophisticated set of security protections that we see as critical in today's security landscape. 
    We highly recommend that users not disable ProtectedMode.  Also, it's worth noting that by manually changing your mms.cfg, you have opted out of Protected Mode for all future versions of Flash Player, as we will continue to honor that preference. This puts your system at risk, and that risk will continue to grow over time. 
    Ultimately, this is an issue with the RealPlayer Browser Record plug-in.  There is a more technical explanation in the Mozilla bug referenced above in the thread, but the simplified version is that the security enhancements designed to prevent the introduction of malware via Flash Player make RealPlayer Browser Record plug-in no longer compatible with Flash Player for Firefox.  You can disable the record functionality to eliminate this issue, while retaining the ability to view both Flash and Real Player content.
    To disable the Real Player Browser Record functionality while maintaining the enhanced security provided by Flash Player with Protected Mode, do the following:
        Launch RealPlayer
        Click the RealPlayer icon in the upper-left corner of the window, and choose Preferences
        Choose Download & Recording from the left-hand menu
        Uncheck "Enable Web Download & Recording for these installed browser"
        Click OK

  • Windows mediaplayer/flip for mac

    does anyone know if either of these two things work on the Intel machines? I cannot seem to find anything and when i have tried these downloads they don't work.
    thanks,

    If you read the information on Intel Macs you would know that PowerPC plug-ins, preference panes, contextual menu items, etc. that are not universal binaries will not work.
    WMP and Flip4Mac players will run as standalone apps via Rosetta, but their plug-ins will not work until they have been converted to universal binaries.
    See the following:
    A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs
    If you are migrating a PowerPC system (G3, G4, or G5) to an Intel-Mac be careful what you migrate. Keep in mind that some items that may get transferred will not work on Intel machines and may end up causing your computer's operating system to malfunction.
    Rosetta supports "software that runs on the PowerPC G3 or G4 processor that are built for Mac OS X". This excludes the items that are not universal binaries or simply will not work in Rosetta:
    Classic Environment, and subsequently any Mac OS 9 or earlier applications
    Screensavers written for the PowerPC
    System Preference add-ons
    All Unsanity Haxies
    Browser and other plug-ins
    Contextual Menu Items
    Applications which specifically require the PowerPC G5
    Kernel extensions
    Java applications with JNI (PowerPC) libraries
    See also What Can Be Translated by Rosetta.
    Be sure to verify with developer or from information on download sites whether software is a universal binary. Many of the incompatible products currently in use will likely be updated in time.
    In addition to the above you could also have problems with migrated cache files and/or cache files containing code that is incompatible.
    If you migrate a user folder that contains any of these items, you may find that your Intel-Mac is malfunctioning. It would be wise to take care when migrating your systems from a PowerPC platform to an Intel-Mac platform to assure that you do not migrate these incompatible items.
    If you have problems with applications not working, then completely uninstall said application and reinstall it from scratch. Take great care with Java applications and Java-based Peer-to-Peer applications. Many Java apps will not work on Intel-Macs as they are currently compiled. As of this time Limewire, Cabos, and Acquisition are available as universal binaries. Do not install browser plug-ins such as Flash or Shockwave from downloaded installers. These versions are not universal binaries and will not work on Intel-Macs. The version of OS X installed on your Intel-Mac comes with special compatible versions of Flash and Shockwave plug-ins for use with your browser.
    The same problem will exist for any hardware drivers such as mouse software unless the drivers have been compiled as universal binaries. For third-party mice the only current choice is USB Overdrive. Contact the developer or manufacturer of your third-party mouse software to find out when a universal binary version will be available.
    Also be careful with some backup utilities and third-party disk repair utilities. Disk Warrior (does not work), TechTool Pro (does not work), SuperDuper (newest release works), and Drive Genius (untested) may not work properly on Intel-Macs. The same caution may apply to the many "maintenance" utilities that have not yet been converted to universal binaries.
    Before migrating or installing software on your Intel-Mac check MacFixit's Rosetta Compatibility Index.

  • Need help: Belkin Flip for Mac mini doesn't support the new Intel chip?!

    Hi folks,
    I recently purchased a Mac mini Intel Core Duo and planned to use a Belkin KVM Flip switch for it and my Sony VAIO.
    However, the current Belkin KVM Flip switch for the Mac Mini does NOT support the Intel Core Duo. Until Belkin comes up with a switch that does, I have to unplug and replug my monitor, keyboard and mouse into the appropriate computer to use either one. Obviously, that isn't very convenient. Has anyone else encountered this problem and come up with a better solution?
    Thanks.
    Mac mini Intel Core Duo   Mac OS X (10.4)   KVM switch for a Sony VAIO

    I think what you're saying is that I should just swap out the monitor cable from one computer to the other when I want to use that computer. Not elegant, as you say, but workable.
    Given you want to use a Flip I gather you're wanting both of your computers permanently connected to your TV/display at the same time. To do that without a KVM you will need to, for instance, connect your Mac mini to the RGB input and then your Vaio to HDMI. So, to select which computer you want you actually want to view you use the display remote just like you would if you were swapping from your cable box to your DVD player. I would suggest you play around with whatever combination gives you the best quality for both computers as not all inputs to your TV have the same quality.
    That takes care of video. Now, for USB, yes you will have to physically swap a cable although there are many ways you can do this which does in some way depend on how you place your computer and the peripherals you want connect to one or both computers. What you do is use a USB hub with everything connected (keyboard, mouse scanner etc) to it and which ever computer you want to use you connect it to the hub.
    It's all about finding a solution that suits you the best.
    PS As for the Flip, you might want to note that the Flip does NOT have digital DVI connectors. It has two analog VGA connectors which at high resolution does not perform at all well. I would suggest you ensure that the VGA performance to your 1080i TV is acceptable before buying this product.

  • HT1338 I have Microsoft for Mac 2011 on my OSX Lion. I want to take advantage of Word Art and be able to flip text to print on fabric. Can't seem to find how to do this... Help, please!

    I need to make t shirts for a family reunion.  I cannot reverse the text (so the letter will print on a T shirt correctly). I have tried everything including u-tube videos. I could swear I have seen graphics (such as various banners on Word Art as shown on u tube videos) on one of my toolbars but cannot locate them now (would like to use them also).
    Is anyone familiar with Microsoft for Mac 2011?  I also have an HP Photosmart printer that should be able to reverse print but that too is defeating me but I don't give up...
    Thanks for any suggestions!

    For any object (photo, WordArt, etc.), right click on the object and choose Format Shape. Choose 3-D Rotation in the left column. In the X field, type 180 and press tab. Click OK to accept the change. Here, I reversed some WordArt text.

  • What settings are needed for Flip 4 Mac to change frame size?

    I just installed Flip 4 Mac Studio Pro so that I can make wmv files in different sizes. It works in 340x240 and 480x360, but freezes up when I choose the preset 384x288. Are there other settings that need to be changed to make this work. I thought this version of Flip would allow me to do most anything.
    I'm exporting a short 4 min sequence from FCP using Quicktime conversion.

    This will give you the instructions on how to set it up step by step.

  • Flip 3D Cubic Effect for Mac?

    Window Vista has this feature where you can switch between virtual backgrounds through the effect of a spinning cube! Is there such thing for Mac? Thanks

    Hi, thanks for your response.
    Actually, I have no transitions grayed out, although for the build effects on Charts, 'Flame' is indicated as unable to be used on this computer.... so you're right, it doesn't look good. Strange that I can use a build effect like Sparkle or Shimmer which are anti-aliased but for 3D grow, some growing blocks of a chart can't be anti-aliased
    I guess it's back to the store to try and exchange this mac mini for an Imac.

  • WMV Files Not Playing In Powerpoint For Mac 2011 (Lion OS)?

    Hi guys!
    I recently upgraded to Lion (and I think I like it) BUT I have been putting together a Power Point presentation for work (I'm a University Lecturer) and trying to embed some movies with no luck... I insert the files and go to play them, but all I get is audio. I have tried MOV, AVI, WMV, MP4, etc, etc... no joy. I have tried Flip 4 Mac, QuickTime and VLC... no joy. When I play the embedded file, no video, just audio!
    Before I upgraded to Lion, it was esy... convert the clips, inset into PowerPoint, and away I go!
    HELP!!!

  • Windows Media Player for Mac issue

    Lately, and I not sure when it started. When I goto a radio station's website who offers streaming of their broadcasts, I click on the link, WMP opens and starts playing (although there is a delay). In the activity viewer of Safari, I see that their is an error loading the plugiin....it says "plugin cancelled." However, the window still plays. I do not have Flip4mac installed either. I assume WMP is playing it as it looks like the little WMP window that opens up in the broswer.
    Can anyone confirm?
    Check this link, choose listen now.
    http://www.mbn.org/GenMoody/default.asp

    Thanks for the info, but I am trying to determine if I have an issue with WMP mac and Safari. When I click on that link, eventually I get it to play, but I get an error in the activity window for Safari. I am wondering if any of the recent updates affected this (10.4.7 or security updates).
    Do you have WMP installed? If you uncheck the pref that says use flip 4 mac, what happens if you use safari and then it tries to open in WMP plugin.
    Like I said, it works after a long pause, but I still get an error at the bottom in the status bar and the message "plugin cancelled."

  • Windows Media Player for Macs Problem

    Hi. I realize this is not a direct iMovie question however I (along with alot of other iMovie users) have to occasionaly deal with WMV files by converting them to a format to be imported by iMovie.....therefore I thought some other iMovie users may have encountered this problem. I recently got an iMac G5(0S10.4) and have been transfering some info from my old Mac(iMac G3(OS10.2.8)) to the New Mac. With the new Mac....every time I try to open a wmv file with the Windows Media Player 9 for Macs...I get a message...."This file may not play correctly because it was compressed by using a codec that is not supported".The file will open..the video will play...but theres no audio. The same message appears for wmv files transfered from the old mac, taken from a CD, or downloaded from the net. However these same files will play on the old Mac with audio using the same WMPlayer. I tried re-installing the WMPlayer...but did not make any difference.The strange thing is....a few days ago when I first tried this ....the wmv files would open and play with audio on the new Mac however now the message comes up with all wmv files preventing me from converting them with audio to a format for iMovie.Is the problem with the new Mac, the WMPlayer or the wmv files. Any suggestions to remedy this would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Hi. Strange things still happening. This afternoon when I tried opening the wmv files with Quicktime "flip4mac" all the wmv files were "greyed out" in the "open" window preventing me from opening them. I just tried opening one with the WMPlayer and viewing the "Show movie Info".....it reads...WMVideo-9.0, WMAudio-9.1.....which makes me wonder if the WMPlayer 9.0 will play WMAudio-9.1 but then again the same player plays it on the old mac. Then......just to double-check...tried opening one again with the Quicktime Flip 4 Mac. This time the wmv file opened and played with audio. I'm wondering if the problem the 1st time was that a "restart" was needed after installing the flip4mac software the 1st time (even though I dont recall the installer telling me that). The "Show movie info" this time reads...WMVideo-9 standard and the WMAudio-9 standard. I would prefer if the WMPlayer could open the files (as its a bit more convienent to just double-click and open files then go to Quicktime/menu/file/openfile/wmvfile/open) however I'm glad that I have the option now to use the Flip4mac player.Thanks. P.S.-(Dawn.....if your logged in...the "post new topic" link appears in its usual place for me at the top of the discussions page)
