You need to install the adobe flash player plugin.  Download only from the adobe flash player plugin download page.  Mount the downloaded dmg and launch the installer.  Check the agree to terms to enable the install button and then click the install button.
Once installed, the next launch of your browser should allow you to play youtube videos and flash videos on other flash video sites.

  • AHHH! major problems. Please help. (iPod wont restore)

    Having tried every FAQ recommendations i could find, nothing is working. I have a 4th gen 20GB click wheel, no color, and when i plug in the USB it does one of several things, 1. the ipod freezes and seems to be stuck in the loading mode. 2. is not recognized by windows, 3. an autoplay loading thing pops up, (note that the du-DU noise is made when i plug it in, if this happens), and 4. if im really lucky, i mean its only happened about 2/60 times, it will be recognized and appear in itunes, asking me to restore it do to corruption, and then i get an error message about a file not being downloadable or something, ive done everything the FAQ asks including reinstalling it multiple times, deleting all old versions, everything, but it wont recognize the iPod. I used to have problems with it being corrupt but it would just restore like normal and would work everytime i plugged it in. Also, sometimes i try using both the 1337 Firewire and USB 2.0 because i have the double cable. Nothing seems to work, but I desperatly need my iPod. Music is pretty much my life.

    Ok, now i tried http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304309 but its not doing me any good either, when i got to the iTunes folder (i had "Show hidden files" on) it only showed me two things, 1. a folder titled SC Info containing 2 files, SC Info.sidb and SC Info.sidd. 2. a file "iPodDevices" and XML file that opens up a page with this on it...

    I am having trouble with my iPod 5th gen after iOS update. It's in recovery mode and iTunes keeps timing out when I try to restore it. What should I do??? If possible, I would also like to keep all of my data.

    Maybe this will help:
    Troubleshooting
    As with all clickwheel iPods, you can reset this iPod by first toggling the hold switch on and off and then simultaneously pressing the select (center) and menu buttons for approximately 5-10 seconds. This is a common fix should your iPod behave unexpectedly or lock up. Once reset, the iPod should display an Apple logo for a few seconds before showing the main menu. This procedure is similar to rebooting a computer and damages none of your music or data.

    Hi sunnylordz,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like you have no service on the iPhone. It looks like you have already done some troubleshooting. There is one step you did not mention trying that i think is worth trying. 
    If you see No Service in the status bar of your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
    Remove the SIM card. If the SIM card is damaged, worn, or bent, or if it's too big or small for the SIM tray, contact your carrier for a new one. Then reinsert the SIM card.
    Cheers,
    Mario

  • HT1379 I had to restart by resetting the NVRAM/PRAM.  Now I have a window showing OS X Utilities.  My options are restore from Time Machine Backup (which I could do), Disk Utility to repair or erase, get help online or reinstall OS X.  What should I do?

    I had to restart by resetting the NVRAM/PRAM.  Now I have a window showing OS X Utilities.  My options are restore from Time Machine Backup (which I could do), Disk Utility to repair or erase, get help online or reinstall OS X.  What should I do?  The problem began when I tried to restart my computer and the only thing I saw was the grey screen, Apple logo, and the timer; the computer wouldn't restart from there.

    I searched through trouble shooting options on the Apple Support page and was able to make it this far.

    Hi beckiewinter!
    I have some information for you that may help you understand your iPhone's Activation Lock more thoroughly:
    iCloud: Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818
    So in order to update your iPhone, you may need to turn off Find My iPhone. This can be done through the iCloud settings, and more information on those settings can be found right here:

  • TS3694 3194 error code when i try a restore...what should i do

    Please help with this problem...3194 error code when i try a restore...what should i do

    You have the current version of iTunes on your computer, and you've tried the troubleshooting for that error code on this page (under the 'Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com' section) ?

  • My ipod wont restore screen jus black

    my ipod wont restore always different error everytime screen is jus blank

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

  • TS3276 An email sent from my iMac has a button linked to a clip hosted on Vimeo. When received, the link functions on iMac and iPad, but opens a window of app icons on iPhone and iPod touch. Any ideas what's wrong?

    An email sent from my iMac has a button linked to a clip hosted on Vimeo. When received, the link functions on iMac and iPad, but opens a window of app icons on iPhone and iPod touch. Any ideas what's wrong?

    For anyone else reading this thread, it is worth knowing that sometimes an email is, or can be, corrupted thereby jamming the works. The solution above is good, but I just wanted to suggest another one.
    If the problem arises, go to an online mail access service, such as Mail2Web.com and login to you mail account there and delete the offending message.
    Problem solved.
    And George, as this is all entirely voluntary, whinging about no takers may not endear people to you. Besides which, a few minutes of searching on Google would have found you a number of solutions.
