Hulu wont play videos on firefox but work fine on IE; flashplayer on youtube worked after html5 switchover, same issue for hulu videos?

Recently updated both firefox (version 27) and flashplayer plugin (12) and I then started having problems trying to play videos on youtube or hulu. After messing about with troubleshooting, I got the youtube videos to finally play (apparently, had to change to HTML5 mode) but now I still can't play the hulu videos. Hulu works fine on IE (which I used to use before FF) although, that is the ActiveX version of flash player. I've tried most of the suggestions that are out there for this particle problem and none of them seem to work. What I have yet to try is fixing the mms.cfg file located at C:Windows/System32/Macromed/Flash and that's only because my equal sign key isn't working.smdh. The file that was there initially couldn't be opened or was corrupted so I'm thinking this might be the game changer I'm looking for. Any other relevant suggestions would greatly be appreciated as well. Thank you

oh, there is still a pending issue with youtube unfortunately. I can play videos individually but if I click on a video that is part of a playlist it lags and then goes to a blank space where the video should be. Is that a flash player issue? So, I can play videos individually but not playlists.
Any word on that would be awesome
Thanks again

    This is a recent problem. I have not made any changes concerning my web browser. Perhaps I need to reinstall Firefox.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Encore wont play video files

    I recently upgraded encore from ver.2 to cs3 and find that ver.cs3 wont play video files.
    It wont play the file in the project window, it just stops at the first frame. If I move the slider below the viewer the video material is updated but it wont play.
    In the monitor view it wont play either, I can view the material by manually moving the cursor.
    It wont play a preview either, it just stops.
    It builds a DVD without problems and the dvd plays fine without errors but the program wont play any video files.
    Ver.2 plays all the same video files without problems.
    Please help!

    Whew!
    Glad that you got it fixed, and thanks for posting what worked for you.
    Good luck with the interview,

  • Safari and firefox stop working after a few minutes of browsing, regardless of what site I'm on. I have to restart my computer to get internet access again but it only works for a few more minutes, then I have to restart again. Please help!

    Safari and firefox stop working after a few minutes of browsing, regardless of what site I'm on. I have to restart my computer to get internet access again but it only works for a few more minutes, then I have to restart again. I don't get a spinning ball, it just stops working at whatever page it's on. I can close the program just fine but when I re-open it, either safari or firefox, it freezes trying to load the hompage. This started a few days ago after trying to stream a movie on my computer. I'm on a Mac Air OS X Version 10.6.8 and have downloaded all updates. When I go into finder, it says I have over 80 gigs available. Is there some other memory cache that I need to check? Thanks so much for your help.

    It's not a router problem as I explained in my post. If it was a router problem then I wouldn't have the problem everywhere I go. It is an issue with the software.
    Then I guess the millions of people running 10.5.7 with no issues are just hallucinating that their machines are working fine?
    I'm not trying to belittle your issues; you're certainly having them and I know first hand how annoying an intermittent AirPort issue can be. (In fact, mine was due to an AirPort driver bug that no one else seemed to suffer from.)
    The single best diagnostic you could do is take your system running 10.5.7 to an Apple Store, and try using their in-store network.
    If your machine performs flawlessly, it may be a router issue.
    If your machine has connectivity issues there, it may be a hardware problem with your machine.
    There have been numerous people in multiple threads over the years who swore that an update was buggy because things used to work, but returned later to sheepishly admit that they took their machine in, a problem was found and fixed, and now their Mac works flawlessly with the newer software.
    But simply reinstalling 10.5.5 in no way means the explanation of how firmware bugs may be at play here is incorrect.
    In the context of that explanation, all you've done is possibly reinstall software that asks to add "2 + 3."

  • There are diagonal stripes on some clips on the timeline and wont play video in the program monitor.

    After reconnecting some origianl files after a hard drive crashed, there are diagonal stripes on some clips on the timeline that wont play video in the program monitor. They do however play in the source monitor.

    Those stripes are most likely the missing media indicators, which means you've relinked to the wrong clips.

  • Firefox only works after I re-boot my computer

    I just got a new computer last week. It is running Windows 8 - 64 bit. I installed Firefox, used it for a week, set up my bookmarks, etc. and it worked fine. The other day when I logged in and opened Firefox, I couldn't click on anything - nothing would happen - it was like it was frozen. I went into Internet Explorer and also into Google Chrome and they both worked fine - I could click on things and it would do what it was supposed to do. So, I re-booted my computer and then Firefox worked fine. Same thing the next day, Firefox only worked after I re-booted my computer...and also today, same thing. Why is it frozen when I first go into it, but if I re-boot the whole computer, it works? Has me baffled. Any help would be appreciated, because it is my favorite browser. But if this keeps up, I won't be using it anymore. Thank you!
    I have my home page set to Yahoo, so that's where it goes when I open it. When I get there, I can't click on my e-mail, nothing in the toolbar, it's totally frozen.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
    *In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    *In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".
    :[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.

    Does Gmail work better in a private browsing window? This is a test to see whether cookies are a factor. You can create a new private window by either:
    * Pressing Ctrl+Shift+p
    * orange Firefox button (or File menu) > New Private Window
    More generally, when you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • Videos will not work in Firefox but work fine in windows explorer. why?

    I tried to verify my plug-in's and all are enabled. I found where was suggested to remove and reinstall Firefox but that did not fix problem either. I tried to change viewer for videos but still no luck. Not certain why Quicktime doesn't work. Note, videos when browsing will not open but everything else works fine. Videos work fine with windows Explorer, but not Firefox.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • No Video plays in Program window but works in source window

    I'm using the trial version of Premiere Pro CS6 and I can't get any of the videos I import to play in the program window; only the sound works. If I double click the program window in the general area of where the video should play I get the paused image of the video at wherever the timeline is stopped at. In the source window the video and sound plays perfectly.

  • My ipod 5th gen. 30 gig wont play video on to tv!! need help, please!

    Hi, I have searched and have found no answer. My ipod wont play on the tv. I don't have a offical Apple cable that plugs into the headphone jack to the tv. But I have a cable that I have found laying around my house that is exactly the same. It has a headphone connecter on one saide, and three other plugs on the other (yellow, white, red).
    I know if I'm not using a Apple cable that I have to rerange the cables, red to yellow, white to red, yellow to white. I've tried other combinations with NO success.
    I have the ipod set to TV on..
    And the only thing that happens is that white and grey lines start dancing around on the tv..
    and SOMETHIMES theres is some auido, but with only one speaker..
    I have tired two tv's. A hdtv and a flat screen tv.

    Stephanie,
    The reason a standard A/V cable won't work with the iPod if you match the colors is because the A/V cable standard was developed by Video Camera manufactures and they arbitrarily picked the connections on the 3-contact 1/8" plug to go to their colors.
    When Apple decided to put a three contact 1/8" jack on the iPod and use one contact for Video output, they couldn't match the same colors because the configuration picked by the video folks didn't match the two audio channels to the same ones used by standard headphones. So Apple had to make their own A/V cables to get the colors to match up correctly.
    If they hadn't made their own A/V cables (or made you use a standard cable with the colors mixed up) and made the iPod match the A/V standard then it would have required custom wired headphones for the iPod. Clearly you can see where the outrage would be if Apple seemingly MADE people buy their custom headphones and didn't let you use any headphones you wanted, right?
