I am unable to download & convert You Tube videos while using FireFox 26.0 & Downloadhelper 4.9.21
I have been using FireFox with DownloadHelper for years without any issues. However, I am no longer able to convert You Tube videos from flv to wmv. I have reinstalled both programs and tried reverting to an older version of FireFox. Any suggestions?
I updated and tried the ConvertHelper...still doesn't work.
The message I get is:
Conversion job completed
'filename'.wmv failed converting
Could there be a problem with my converter license even though nothing indicated there is?

How can I download a You Tube video and place in a Keynote presentation. We have the permission of the videographer and have downloaded Get Tube at his (videographer) suggestion. Thank you.
Did you check the home page setting?
*Firefox > Preferences > General > Startup: Home page
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
If you do not keep changes after a restart then see:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
You can also check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox Profile Folder that store session data.
Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

Even files of small size are not getting attached in yahoo mail when I use firefox. However there is no problem when I use IE.
Thank you jscher2000. Yes my PDFs do contain the .pdf extension. I tried your excellent idea to utilize the drag and drop method, but I still get the same error message with PDFs. I have no problem attaching photos or Word documents with either method; just PDFs.
For further diagnostics, I started composing my email in Safari, attached all my pdfs and saved my email as a Draft. I then went to Firefox, opened the draft to continue working on it, and voila! There are all the pdfs I attached previously while in Safari. I was able to send the email with attachments through Firefox with no issues. The attachments went through and were able to be opened.
I am mystified, as Firefox has been trouble-free with my email account, and I have never had this particular issue till today. I made no changes to anything else on my computer, but I did notice very late last night that Outlook had one of those typical messages at the top of my Inbox to refresh my browser since Outlook had been updated. I refreshed and shut down for the night, and when I rebooted this morning that is when I discovered this brand new glitch with attachments. I'm assuming this has something to do their last update. -

Easy You Tube Video Downloader not showing up
I've downloaded Easy You Tube Video Downloader, and it shows up in Tools/Add-ons. But I see no little icons anywhere on my main browser window, and can't see anything that seems relevant when I'm on a You Tube page. So How do I access/use this program?
I tried emailing the developer, <[email protected]>, but it bounced. And I made the mistake of giving a donation in advance!!No i have no message to verify/ repair your disk with disk utility. I am 62yrs old and i am not very technically minded. Sorry it`s an iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8) Does this disk utility automatically appear. As i have said it only happens in the first ten mins.with the spinning wheel. I can go back down now and they will all be showing you the original icons. Sorry to cause you bother.

You tube videos play about 11 seconds and then reset to the beginning...why?
You tube videos play about 11 seconds and then reset to the beginning and if i jump ahead in the video, it will play for a few seconds and then reset to the point that I jumped to. This started happening yesterday, 10/7/11. It only happens with you tube videos in the firefox browser. Videos from others sites such as vimeo play normally. You tube videos play normally using internet explorer. This is a windows 7 machine.
If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items. -

Any way to view you tube videos?
is any way to view you tube videos while waiting for this quicktime fiasco to be fixed? No quicktime movies are working at all, and it's really annoying. I was wondering if there was an alternate method to view videos or do I just have to wait patientally?
well here is the deal. Since I did the recent update on quicktime, NO quicktime movies play at all. I get that faded quicktime logo with a ? instead. Youtube also has that for every video and nothing plays. I have flash 9 and I unchecked the flash option (there wasn't wasn't one in the mime settings, it was just in the quicktime advanced tab), restarted The computer and I till have the same result. It has been a week allready and I still can't view movies of any sort. Thank you for yoru suggestions, but Is there anything else that could be wrong?

Canot downloading from you tube,as downloading option is showing from add-on
canot downloading from you tube,as downloading option is showing from add-on
add on ballons showing with downloading option, but downloding is not happeningCould they be viewed ... and used ... by QuickTime Player?
Installing the Perian codec component package will normally allow FLV file containers to be played in QT players. However, it might be more helpful here if you could provide a specific YouTube URL (and resolution if applicable) of interest to check out. While I previously indicated content was typically converted to FLV, MP4 files may also be used and content may compressed as H.264/AAC in either container which, of course, should already be QT compatible without additional support.
Could anything be done about improving video quality?
That depends. If the file you are interested in is available in multiple resolutions, then downloading the highest available resolution would provide the best starting point for iMovie editing. If compressed content is already in an iMovie compatible compression format, then it might be possible to copy the content to an iMovie compatible file container (if not already in one) and thus avoid transcoding the data before import to iMovie. However, you still have the potential for some visual quality loss after editing when you export the finished project from iMovie. -
I have an ipad2. When connected to my wifi at home it will not download you tube videos for easy viewing. Do I need to upgrade my connection speed? Would 3 Mbps be enought or do I need to go to 6 Mbps. I mainly use my ipad to view emails, browse the internet and watch you tube videos.
thanks - MichelleWelcome to Apple Support Communities.
There are a number of factors in the 'speed' equation. Any or all of them can affect the 'observed' speed of your connection.
1. Are you in a neighborhood full of WiFi routers (and thus, lots of WiFi interference)? I can 'see' at least 22 other WiFi routers from my living room!
2. What is the maximum connect speed and band and bandwidth available from your wireless router. Is it 802.11n or the older 802.11a/b/g? 300Mbits or 150Mbits? 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz or both? Does your router measure (QoS) Quality of Service and can it change 'channels' automatically?
3. What is the observed strength of your wireless connection? Are you getting at least 80% signal when connected? Are there other people in your family also using significant bandwidth at the same time (Netflix, streaming video, streaming audio, game systems)
4. What is the "advertised" speed of your current ISP connection?
5. What is the measured throughput of your current setup. Go to speedtest.net or use the free speedtest.net app available in the App Store. Try several times, from different locations in your home, and at different times of day and night.
I have AT&T DSL advertised at 3Mbit/sec down and 512Kbit/sec up. My Speedtest.net measured throughput is about 2.4 Mbit/sec downstream and upstream is about 0.4Mbit/sec. I'm using a Motorola Netopia 2210-2 DSL modem. I have no problem viewing YouTube videos and other mobile video content on the iPad 2. I'm connected wirelessly to a D-Link DIR-655 Gigabit router rated at 150Mbps at 2.4Ghz (only) with 802.11 b/g/n enabled. The interior of my home is within a range of 30-50 feet from the router and no more than 1 wall. It is a single level concrete slab foundation of about 1500 sq. ft. with cathedral ceilings. I have successfully streamed ESPN3.com on my MacBook at the same time my son was streaming another ESPN3.com game on his MacBook Pro. I've streamed YouTube videos while my son was watching a NetFlix movie on his Wii game system. He's also successfully used Skype for extended 'teleconferences.' None of my devices are connected to HDMI on a large screen TV. 95% of the time, I can do iChat video without any signal breakup to my son (who is at a college with a Gigabit (1000Mbit) wired connection!). 5% of the time the connection drops. We haven't tried FaceTime (designed for mobile connections to be much less bandwidth-intensive, from what I understand) simply because we both have iChat on our computers.
So for me, a 3Mbit DSL connection is absolutely adequate, given all the other parameters mentioned. As the car manufacturers say, "Your mileage may vary."

Hello, I was trying to find out if there is a way to download the music from a you tube video to your itunes library.
I believe you just are able to delete them from iTunes.
Hope it will be helpful -
I tried playing a you tube video, but received a message prompt to download the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. The link to Adobe stated that there are issues with MAC OS X 10.7 and Flash Player 10.3. The new version did not download. Any Suggestion

just bought an imac cannot view you tube videos keeps telling me to download adobe flash player 10 how can i fix this
Good morning.
Apple no longer includes Flash with the new Macs. So, if you run into things that require Flash you must, if you want to view them, go to the Adobe site and download the Flashplayer as Paul_31 suggested.
Enjoy your day. -
When I try to play a You Tube video in Safari it tells me my version is no longer supported and I should download a newer version of Safari. I have OSX10.8.5, and my Safari is 6.2.3, and apparently it's up to date. What's going on? Should I just give up and use Chrome or Firefox, which work fine?
Thanks,
