How do i prevent youtube videos from stoppping every few seconds

whenever i try to watch a youtube video it stops every few seconds loads and plays and stops again. how do i fix it

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
This can also be a problem with session restore.<br />
Firefox stores session data every 10 seconds to make it possible to restore a crashed session.<br />
If you have (security) software that interferes with that or have many tabs open then that cause cause a delay.<br />
Some have reported that increasing the session store saving interval worked for them.<br />
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.sessionstore.interval
Your above posted system details show outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks.

How do I stop YouTube videos from stopping after 14 seconds?

For a couple of days now I've found that some, but not all, Youtube videos stop at the 14 second mark. I've also noticed that the buffering bar also stops there. I have already tried deleting my history, cache and cookies. I've also uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Flash. I've also tried turning off the computer and unplugging the modem for 30 seconds before rebooting. None of those things worked. I have TubeEnhancer. Is that causing this to happen? I have the latest versions of Adobe Flash and Foxfire.

Try disabling that extension, as the reviews look like it could be faulty: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/youtube-enhancer-plus/
You can do that on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions.
Often a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
Looking at your list of disabled extensions, I think you might have installed a bundle of unwanted software. To clean those out, I suggest a visit to the Windows Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs. If you click the "Installed on" column heading and view the list grouped by date, that may help in uncovering bundle items that you never intended to install. Take out as much trash as possible here.

Can hear audio, but video blacks out every few seconds; picture comes back when we hit the tv's volume button

We can hear audio, but video blacks out every few seconds; picture comes back when we hit the tv's volume button. Everything seems to be plugged in well. The picture even starts out being sort of dim. And it goes through phases of working fine but then will randomly start blacking out again. Any ideas?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Have you tried turning the TV off and on again.

Video stutters/glitches every few seconds

I have a video I recorded in iMovie with FireWire and rendered as a mov file. The file plays fine in VLC, but in a premiere elements 12 project, it stutters/skips frames every few seconds. Why can't software just work? What do I change?

From the Premiere Elements Information FAQ http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1042180
•What operating system? This should include specific minor version numbers, like "Mac OSX v10.6.8"---not just "Mac".
•Have you installed any recent program or OS updates? (If not, you should. They fix a lot of problems.)
•What kind(s) of image file(s)? When talking about camera raw files, include the model of camera.
•If you are getting error message(s), what is the full text of the error message(s)?
•What were you doing when the problem occurred?
•What other software are you running?
•Tell us about your computer hardware. How much RAM is installed? How much free space is on your system (C:) drive?
•Has this ever worked before? If so, do you recall any changes you made to Premiere Elements, such as adding Plug-ins, brushes, etc.? Did you make any changes to your system, such as updating hardware, printers or drivers; or installing/uninstalling any programs?
And some other questions...
•What are you editing, and does your video have a red line over it BEFORE you do any work?
•Have you viewed the tutorial links at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1275830 page?
•Which version of Quicktime do you have installed?
What is your exact brand/model graphics adapter (ATI or nVidia or ???)
What is your exact graphics adapter driver version?
Have you gone to the vendor web site to check for a newer driver?
For Windows, do NOT rely on Windows Update to have current driver information
-you need to go direct to the vendor web site and check updates for yourself

TA21328 youtube videos stop playing after few seconds

While watching videos on youtube, sometimes the videos are stopping or freezing after few seconds of play. How can I fix this?

If you have a slower connection and try to watch hd then your computer won't be able to keep up. Could that be the problem? If it is, just click on the quality wheel, and watch at a lower quality, say 480.

Youtube videos stuck after a few seconds

For some reasons I can´t watch some Youtube videos. Some videos play for 10 - 60 Sec. and then stop and don´t continue loading (buffering) the rest of the video. Fastforward or backward doesn´t help. Some videos don´t even start and others play just fine. Here is one example that doesn´t load at all: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WWnuXKh9wrM
It´s Firefox 23 on Windows 8 (64bit) with the latest Flash-plugin. I´ve uninstalled flash and re-installed it. I´ve followed instructions on the following 2 troubleshooting websites.

http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.html
https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/58129?hl=en
All of that didn´t help.
I have the same problem with Internet Explorer.
When I download this video with a Firefox plugin (save to a flv file) and then play it with VLC, then it still doesn´t work.
On another computer I´ve played that video at the same time with no problems. So it´s not a network performance issue.
I´ve tried html5 but on the video mention above YT is loading Flash anyways. On other videos html5 is working fine. YT has mentioned in their help pages that not all videos support html5 and load with Flash instead.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Have you tried using a different browser to see if that helps?

How can I prevent embedded videos from playing automatically when I open a webpage?

When I go to a web page, such as when I click around to different stories on msn.com, there is often an embedded video. Sometimes it is a commercial. Sometimes it's something else. But it just starts playing all by itself, which can be loud and startling. I'd like videos to play only when I select them. Is there a way to make it prevent the auto-play?

You can look at: Stop Autoplay: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/1765

How do I prevent flash videos from automatically playing?

Whenever I open a new link to youtube, collegehumor, various tv websites, etc. firefox always automatically starts playing the video even before i even look at that tab. Sometimes when firefox freezes I have a few video tabs open and when it starts back up, a few videos start playing at once.
Is there a way to turn this off? I'd like to manually control when these videos play.

Using [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/433 Flashblock] solves that.

How do I prevent several videos from loading all at once?

I have designed a website for an actor, and on one page there are many video clips of his performances. The problem is, when a viewer opens the page, all the videos start loading simultaneously, causing poor performance.
How would I set the page so that each video would start loading only after the viewer clicks on a particular video?
Thanks.

QuickTime movies load by default. With or without autoplay.
With a lot of movies on a page there's a lot of loading....
Here's how you can do it the easy way :
     Export/Save QT movie for web
Or this way :
     HTML5 Video
Or this way :
     Culture Club Movies
But that one requires extensive knowledge of HTML, JavaScript and how iWeb creates its pages.

Video freezes every few seconds

My new iPad video playback freezes every few seconds. I have a decentish Internet speed (2.3MB) and have turned all apps off and even reset. Any ideas?

Does it always take a long time to buffer the video? Can take several minutes for a video of the same length.

We are evaluating the use of iPod touch devices to record best practice videos on our manufacturing floor and to post to an internal Moodle web site. How can you upload a video from the iPod touch to a site other than YouTube?

We are evaluating the use of iPod touch devices to record best practice videos on our manufacturing floor and to post to an internal Moodle web site. How can you upload a video from the iPod touch to a site other than YouTube? The Moodle upload interface is expecting a file selection dialog box like windows or OSX. I do not want to have to go through an intermediary step of messing with a pc.
Thanks!

It should be around 7 and a half gigs. In iTunes, across the bottom there should be a bar that show how much storage is being used and by what. (music, movies, apps, etc.) To make music take up less room, you can check the box to make it convert the music to 128kbps AAC. This lowers the quality, but with most earbuds and speakers, you can't even tell the difference.
The iPod touch has parental controls built in. You'll find them in Settings. I think they only work for enabling/disabling Safari, Mail, YouTube, and App Store. Here's an app that does more: http://www.mobicip.com/online_safety/ipod_touch

How do I prevent iTunes 11 from syncing apps with my devices?

I want to be able to sync music to my iPad and iPod but I do not want to store their apps on my computer. Since iCloud remembers which apps I own, this is (in my mind) unnecessary. How do I prevent iTunes 11 from syncing my apps? This did not use to be a problem because in iTuens 10 it was an option. Now it seems that it isn't.

Well, in fact the application stopped opening automatically for no reason that is clear to me. For about 5 days after I updated the software it opened automatically when I plugged in or unplugged my phone. Then it suddenly stopped. All I did between the last automatic open and the time that it ceased was, in the options window, uncheck the "manually manage music and videos" option and then check it again without clicking "apply" and also checking "sync only checked songs and videos" and unchecking again without clicking apply.
I can't really recall now, but I thought that I played around with those settings and no matter what, I never saw the Option for Automatically Sync when Connected in iTunes.
I can think of no reason why this would halt the automatic opening but it has definitely stopped. Yet I still don't have the option listed in the options window to "prevent itunes from opening automatically when device is connected."
This is all very strange to me but I can think of nothing to pursue it further.
I can't think of any reason why it would trigger that behavior and of the other 170+ views that this discussion has received, I suppose that nobody else had anything to offer either.
I can't think of anything else to pursue it further either and as long as it is working the way that you want it to work now, I can't think of any need to pursue it further.

How does one email a video from iPhoto

how does one email a video from iPhoto

One doesn't.
Simply, sharing video via email is not advisable.
Many email services have an attachment limit of 20mb and some a limit of 10mb. As emails are sent through an array of relays, the effective limit is the smallest file size allowed on any of the relays. That means that video is rarely suitable for emailing.
Then there's the whole issue of Codecs and not all machines will have the codecs to play all videos. Plus, folks with slower connections can find it very inconvenient to download large video files.
Finally, sharing video from iPhoto via email is not supported. All that gets you is the Movie thumbnail. If you feel you must share via email then you'll need to export the video first, and attach that. Use the File -> Export command and set the kind to Original.
This User Tip
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921
has details of the options in the Export dialogue.
Other than that your options include:
Upload it to a sharing site like YouTube or Vimeo and email a link - these will allow the recipient to view the material online. That will avoid the codec issues mentioned, and the person can still download the video file if they wish.
Upload it to sharing services like Dropbox or YouSendIt and email a link. This will require that they download the material to their machines to view.
