How to watch videos in Safari 6.1

OS X 10.8.5
I can't watch videos included on sites in Safari. All I see is a white space. Youtube works well.

If you have Adobe Flash Player installed.

    Sounds like the wifi isn't processing the data fast enough for video streaming.  Have you tried resetting your wifi hub ?  Switch it off for a couple of minutes and then restart it.  See if that makes any difference.

  • Macbook freezes a lot while watching video on safari?

    Hello everyone,
    I have a early 2007 black macbook, 2GHz, 2GB RAM dual core. I had OS X 10.4 before on my machine. So the story goes like this: once I had a little issue with ethernet cable and I went to apple store to correct it. They replaced my motherboard and that issue was fixed.
    But after they replaced the motherboard a new issue has started, whenever I watch any video on safari or play a simplest of game like 'Chess' that comes with OS X, the computer freezes for 10 seconds and falters to run anything or nothing runs smooth, it slows down the mac like 100 times with hitches. If I check the activity monitor, both processor's use are at their max 100%. Its not a RAM issue as I still see lots of free or unused RAM. It just consumes both the processors.
    Originally this issue was only for the high quality video pages like espn360.com and used to occur only once in a while. I went to apple again (2 years back), they kept my mac for a week but returned without doing anything. They said "We could not reproduce the problem". Over the period of 2 years the issue has worsen and now I cannot even watch a youtube video without interruption for 2 min. If I pause the video and minimize safari, everything is back to normal within a minute but if i start the video again, it falters. Same with firefox/chrome.
    I tried to upgrade to snow leopard, but it was of no use. I think 10.4 was little better than 10.6. Additionally, I don't have this faltering issue if I have a downloaded video on hard drive. Now I am out of warranty, I am not sure what should I do. Will Apple still repair it, because I believe its the new motherboard's fault or the graphics card on new motherboard is bad/gone.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Nik

    Hi nik312, welcome to the forums!
    If it's a Flash video, what version of Flash do you have installed? 10.1 is a lot faster than v9. But since it also happens in Chess, it could be an issue with OpenGL. Since you've tried the Erase and Install already, I'd try zapping the PRAM by following the instructions here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379
    If that doesn't resolve your problem, I think it might a fault with your graphics card, and you might need another logic board replacement.

  • How to watch video's without Flash...

    Hi, I have installed Flash to watch videos on YouTube and Cnet.  What was odd was that I never needed to install it before Mountain Lion....anayway onto my real question:
    Is there a way to watch vidoes without flash?  For example, many videos on Cnet and YouTube play on my iPad, which doesn't use Flash, is there a way to get that playback on my desktop Safari?  Flash uses CPU and generates heat, plus I don't trust it.
    Why do these video's play on my iPad?  Is it that h.264 or something formating?  Can I use that instead of Flash with Safari?
    Thanks,
    Respectfully

    Flash provides more freedback and interactivity than just a video, plus there is a advertising aspect to it I suspect so that's why if they dectect your machine is capable of Flash they will insist you use it.
    Flash is safe as long as you use it on sites that are reputable and you can trust them..
    If you use Firefox and the NoScript Add-on, drag a "Temporarily allow all" button to the FF toolbar, you can surf the web safely without any scripts running, including Javascript which is used to popup look alike OS X windows to try to fool you into providing  your admin password to malware.
    IF you then trust the site your on, you click the button if you need the scripts to run.
    Also you can disable the scripts you not using individually and enable a downloads window to appear before the download acually occurs less you click a wrong link.
    Safair offers little in security, it's why many Mac users get malware that way.

  • How to watch videos through browsers(E60)???

    I have a E60 that works perfectly so far but I have always faced one problem. How to watch some video that are offered in some webpages? I have tried using the two different browsers that are available on the phone.
    Thanks for your help

    You can find out which video file formats the E60 (and other Nokia models) support through this page:
    http://forum.nokia.com/video
    (There's a link to a table of support formats.)
    If the video you are trying to view is encoded in an unsupported format, all you can do is:
    - request the video creator to provide the video in another format that your phone supports
    - download it first to a PC and use a PC based video converter to get it to a format your phone supports

  • Watching videos through Safari on You Tube etc

    I can't seem to watch any videos through Safari for instance on You Tube. They begin loading but never play. Please help I'm getting desperate!! And please use basic English I'm not at all technically minded, thank you!

    Just to expand on Baby Boomer's good advice:
    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!
    It is known to work in the great majority of cases with Safari 3.0.4, QT 7.3 or 7.4 and OS 10.4.11. (If you are running Leopard, ensure that all plug-ins have been updated for OS 10.5)
    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 or above, 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 should first be uninstalled using the appropriate uninstaller available here: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157&sliceId=2 and then the latest version obtained from here: http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash and installed.
    (You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.)
    In earlier versions than QT 7.1.3 in Quicktime Preferences, under advanced, UNcheck Enable Flash, and under Mime settings/Miscellananeous only check Quicktime HTML (QHTM).
    You should also ensure, if you are running Tiger 10.4.11 or Leopard, that you have downloaded and installed the correct version for your Mac of Security Update 2007-009.1.1, which also deals with the Quicktime/Flash issues you may have experienced, such as the '?'. What happened was that both Quicktime as well as Adobe FlashPlayer tried to play the Flash video at the same time. This no longer happens. (N.B. Security Update 2007-009 1.1 requires both a restart and a permission repair.)
    If you get problems with viewing video on a website try moving this file to your Desktop:
    Hard drive/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/QuickTime Plugin.webplugin
    and then restarting Safari. If all now works, you can trash that file.
    In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them). However it should be noted that Perian is not an internet plugin and will not play DivX files imbedded on a website. For that you will need the DivX Player browser plugin available from http://www.divx.com/divx/mac/
    Now go to Safari Preferences/Security, and tick the boxes under Web Content (all 4 of them) to enable Java.
    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, and that you have selected 'Built in Audio'.
    Important: Now repair permissions and restart.
    You should also consider having the free VLC Player from http://www.videolan.org/ in your armory, as this plays almost anything that DVD Player might not.
