I am not able to play any youtube video on Firefox, while the same video plays on IE and Chrome.

FireFox was playing youtube videos with no issues until yesterday. Suddenly none of the youtube videos are paying on FireFox. The error message is "An error has occurred. Please try again later"
I tried the following
1. Uninstall and Reinstall Firefox
2. Uninstall and Reinstall Flash
3. Restart my laptop
No luck with anything. The same videos play fine on IE and Chrome.

Hi mje397,
Sorry for the delay. I have been investigating this and it may have to do with saved preferences on the computer. If you right click and select "Global Settings" remove stored preferences. I could not find any outage notifications for Youtube.
Also disable Flash and try the HTML5 player just in case this is a plug in issue. This can happen specifically when there are network issues or there are changes being made to the videos on the hosted site.
Please post back with your results, it could help other users!

  • HT4101 Camera connector kit not working with ipad3. Not at all able to see any photo . Have tried both the USB connector directly with camera and thru card reader. Tried by copying photos to DCIM folder also.

    Got a iPad camera connector kit. It is not working as expected. It is not able to read any photos. Both the USB connector and sd card reader arenot showing any photos on iPad. Tried copying all photos directly in DCIM folder. Still no result.
    Any other setting needs to be changed?

    Hey, thanks for your updates.
    The photos are 8 character long and extension is .jpg
    The file names are 8 characters long with 3 as alphapet followed by an "_" and then 4 numbers.
    Initially the photos were in a folder inside DCIM folder. I manually copied them to DCIM folder, still no result.
    Can you advice.

    Is localhost the hostname for that computer?
    If you aren't trying to open applications over the network and $DISPLAY is always :0 it is a strange problem for sure.
    yes it's localhost
    $ cat /etc/hostname
    localhost
    and no, I just open the applications normally as always did before without any problem, is it as after some "thing" happens the applications cannot detect any X server running but the X is indeed running.
    I notice however that I'm on tty1 with the graphic, and normally I remember running on tty7 , maybe have something to do with it?

  • Am not able to install any add-ons in Firefox 11 and the suggested fixes here don't seem to work. Any suggestions?

    Installed Firefox 11 and no add-ons display. Tried to install Autofill Forms and I get the message "There was an error installing AutoFill Forms. Try Again" Same for any other add-on. Also running Norton 360V6 and can't even see Norton Toolbar. Have uninstalled and reinstalled both Firefox and 360 (the latter using Norton Removal Tool). Do not have this problem with Internet Explorer or with Firefox 11 on my other computers. Just this one. Plugins from an earlier version of Firefox show up, but not any Add-Ons.

    Maybe try the [[Basic Troubleshooting]] article first?

  • When I try to start Firefox, I get a message that it is already running but not responding and I can't run another Firefox at the same time. I uninstalled and reinstalled. No change. Tried various other suggestions. Help!!

    When I try to start Firefox, I get a message that it is already running, but not responding and that I should close it before trying to run another Firefox. But I cannot find a way to close Firefox program that is not running as far as I can see. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox, but that did not work. I've tried various other things, but no luck. I thought programs should stop when the computer is turned off, but that didn't work either.

    How are you opening the Profile Manager?

  • I am not able to open any PDF documents, what I just see is blank screen in new tab.

    I am not able to open any PDF link in Firefox(I downloaded and installed latest version) but able to open easily in other browsers.

    I have seen that same complaint a lot in this forum, and I don't know how to fix this.  Download the PDF to your local disk, then open it from there.
    Alternatively use a different browser like Firefox.

  • Html5 videos: video periodically freezes while audio continues to play. Firefox 12, Linux, Centos 5 up to date.

    whenever I view a YouTube video on my linux box (Centos 5.8, fully updated) using Firefox12, YouTube always delivers the html5 video to me instead of Flash. This would be fine, but intermittently the video stops moving (while the audio keeps playing). I click the (I don't know what it's called) slider for the current position and the video will start moving again. until it pauses next time, anywhere from a few seconds to a few minutes.
    I don't know why it delivers html5 instead of flash, on my laptop using centos 6 and firefox12 I get flash video. Is there someway to configure Firefox to get flash instead? If not, I'd appreciate help in fixing the pausing video component.

    Perform the suggestions mentioned in the following articles:
    * [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Template:clearCookiesCache Clear Cookies & Cache]
    * [[How to clear the cache#w_clear-the-cache|Clear the Network Cache]]
    Check and tell if its working.
    IF it still doesn't work, then Start Firefox in -> [[Safe Mode]] to check if your add-ons/extensions are causing the problems.
    * Also see this article -> [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    Check and tell if its working normally while using Firefox in [[Safe Mode]].

  • Hi i am not able to load any google sites ie gmail,orkut,youtube(login),,etc

    hi i am not able to load any google sites ie gmail,orkut,youtube(login),,etc
    when i tryied to open sites like www.gmail.com i got error msg as:
    The connection was interrupted
    The connection to www.google.com was interrupted while the page was loading.
    * The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
    moments.
    * If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
    connection.
    * If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
    that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
    i am currently using firefox 3.6.10 so what to do to fix this pblm?

    Make sure that your security software (firewall) isn't blocking or interrupting that connection.
    Do a malware check with a few malware scan programs.<br />
    You need to use all programs because each detects different malware.<br />
    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.<br />

  • I have just upgraded to the latest version of OSX as invited by Apple. Since then iTunes will not play and my volume controls have stopped working - in Preferences the sound controller is not able to find any input or output devices. What is going on?

    I have just upgraded to the latest version of OSX as invited by Apple. Since then iTunes will not play and my volume controls have stopped working - in Preferences the sound controller is not able to find any input or output devices. What is going on?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click  Log in.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. 
    There will be no audio output in safe mode. The question to be answered by the test is whether any devices are listed in the Sound preference pane. After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
