I can not get Firefox to play music backgrounds on pages in browsers it works in IE and other browsers but not firefox, what HTML or Jave script do I need too use to make them work?

I'm having a problem with firefox playing background music on some sites, it works with IE and other browsers but not with fire fox, what html or java script do I need to add to the pages so that they play the music?
I develop my pages in Front Page and I know that the music only works in IE, so if someone can tell me how to correct this problem as it is important as I use fire fox as my main browser.
I thank you in advance

If a website uses BGSOUND then it will only work in IE.
BGSOUND is not compatible with other browsers like Firefox.

  • Speakers work for phone and other apps, but not for music playback on 4G after downloading ios 8.0.2

    I know others are having off the wall issues with sound on their iPhones after installing the iOS 8.0.2...In my case? Thank God the sound for phone calls and alarms work, but the same can't be said for when I try to play music or a radio app?? And the speaker option on my voice mail sticks....
    There are 1001 other issues that I have with this so called upgrade, and let's just say that I've been looking at using my AT&T other phone options since I'm ready to upgrade....Since this is the second time in about a year that I've gone through **** and back with an Apple OS upgrade and there just isn't the cache there once was with owning an iPhone? I'm seriously questioning why be brand loyal when I can't find an answer to my issue and the one solution is to go to the Apple Store and deal with the arrogant and rude clerks OR try and see if someone has a decent solution, OR wait for weeks for Apple to offer a bug fix or access to older OS's!
    (BTW--I HATE how this OS kills the battery! And I'm not happy with the 2 apps that I didn't want and can't get rid of!)

    I was hoping that the iOS 8.1 update would have fixed my problem, but it has not. The app updates continue to hang and will not up date unless I follow the procedures mentioned earlier. I have spoken to Apple Care, and their only suggestion was to do a network settings reset. This worked once, but on the following days as more app updates appeared, they would not download. Once again, the only way to achieve my goal is to do one of the following;
    Change networks
    Sync through iTunes
    Reset Network Settings
    Turn off Wi Fi and use Cellular Data (not my preferred option especially while at home and connected to my home network).
    I think Apple are loosing the plot and seem to be chasing profits more than producing a good reliable product. I would have respected the company more if they had admitted that iOS8 was not ready for general release rather than release a faulty system causing so many problems.

  • I have created some music tracks as aiff files which I want to load onto my iPod Shuffle 4th Generation, but it won't play them - it just bleeps at me. I have changed them to AAC which works - what settings do I need to use to make aiffs work?

    I have created some music tracks as aiff files which I want to load onto my iPod Shuffle 4th Generation, but it won't play them - it just bleeps at me. I have changed them to AAC which works but would rather use aiffs. Can anyone tell me what settings do I need to use to make aiffs work? The info on the iPod says that it accepts aiff files!!

    Hope you are backing up anyway, but be sure you have an up to date backup. Repair permissions in Disk Utility, then restart from the Snow Leopard disk you buy (in the above link) and do an upgrade (only changes the OS), not a clean install (which wipes all data). Others on here may chime in on their thoughts on how best to do this, but I've never had trouble over 20+ years doing it this way. If you aren't having crashes and strange problems now you should be fine. Please write back or start a new thread (you'll get more help than continuing in this thread which has printing problems in the header) that has something like "Need help upgrading from Tiger to Snow Leopard" that will attract more help.

  • How can I get my iPod to play noise when it says my headphones are in but they arnt and I can't get it to play music with out my headphones in ?

    How can I get my sound to play my iPod says my headphones are in all the time and they arnt so it will only play sound when my headphones are in

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack or other hardware problem..
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
    Apple - iPod Repair price                  
    A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

  • Forums need old hands to make them work so why hack them off?

    The whole principle of a forum like this is that those who need help (experienced and inexperienced alike) go to those old hands who can sort things out.
    Why, then, has Apple made so many poor, untested changes hacking off so many of the old hands on whom this community relies? Making changes to allegedly attract the newcomers while driving away the old hands is like inviting 10,000,000 people to shop at your supermarket while getting rid of the shelf stackers. There will soon be nothing to buy.
    I can't imagine the Logic forum without iSchwartz and his like. Apple - get your QA team on overtime to sort out the immediate problems. Get your design team on steroids and your coding team on {insert your preferred high-octane drink here}.
    Yours, most dischuffed,
    Pete Morris

    We don't really know why Apple has made the changes. What we do know is that several recent sets of changes have been very disruptive until they have been sorted out & made to work as (we assume) they were intended to work.
    I think this is mostly what angers the regulars, not necessarily the changes themselves. Looking at the list of gripes, most of them seem to be about implementation issues, like missing 'new' dots, blank line anomalies, badly labeled buttons, & so on. Adding to this is the surprise factor: we don't know what the changes are until they are implemented, or what they will do to the appearance of posts.
    I'm sure I'm not alone in having become very skeptical that announced (or more frequently, discovered) "updates" of Discussions will disrupt things for the no more than the scheduled period; usually promised to be 4 hours or so but now realistically more like 2-4 days.
    So, IMO the solution is to give us not just a warning on the Discussions main page that changes will be made but to tell us in some detail what to expect once things are working right. After all, how hard would it be to say that smilies/emoticons will be rendered as icons, quotes will be boxed, etc. once the changes are complete? Better, how about accompanying that with a guide that explains their use, or furnishing a link to one?
    It is not like these are trade secrets Apple needs to protect to prevent competitors from gaining a marketing advantage! One hopes the intent is to make Discussions easier to use & more friendly. Having to guess what's going to happen or how to use it does not serve that goal, no matter what spin you put on it.
    I think the ideal way to distribute this is not just in the Discussions main page announcements area -- I suspect I am not alone in infrequently visiting that page, since I usually go directly to posts from links in subscriptions emails or the "My Subscriptions" link. With this in mind, why not email the notification & additional info to all subscribers to any Discussions topic or forum? At least this way, users have a way to get the info once Discussions goes down for the changes.
    Failing that, at least put up a link in the Support main pages that doesn't depend on discussions.apple.com being up to let us know what's going on. The "We're sorry ..." message is of no help at all.

  • Script Works on MacBook and Mac Mini but Not MacBook Air

    I just bought a new Mac Mini and 11' MacBook Air, and I have a script that works on the former but not the later.

  • Why can I get no volume on my ipad mini when I attempt to listen to UTube and other links?

    I cannot hear anything when I select links r Utube videos.  How can I fix this?

    Have you ensured that the mute switch is not on?  It is located directly above the volume buttons.
    I'd also suggest updating the YouTube app to the latest version.
    Does you device play other sounds ever? Like alerts and gaming? If not it might be a hardware problem.

  • I can using AirPrint from safari and email to my hp printer but do not get print as an option from the pulldown menu from the new york times and other apps. How can I print directly from these apps?

    I can't seem to print directly from apps like the new York times. Print is not an option from the pulldown menu. Print to my hp printer works  fine from safari and email though and from some other apps. Do some apps not permit printing? That doesn't right.

    Thats funny. If go to ny times on safari therebis a print icon and no problem printing. On the app -- and I am a paid subscriber -- no print option ...  
    You can ask the NY Times why not.
    Standard behavior is that Airprint always works with iBooks, Mail, Photos, and Safari.  Apps are up to their author.

  • Started getting blocked by fortinet accessing youtube and other websites, but not if I used GoogleChrome or IE.

    I was accessing youtube and it was blocked by Fortinet.net, when I queried why, it stated that the device, network or internet provider had blocked it. As it is a home laptop on a private network, that wasn't possible. So I went to same website w/IE and GoogleChrome with no issues, so the "device, network, Internet Provider" comment didn't hold true, so only option is that it was attached directly to Firefox. I uninstalled and installed it again but still had the problem. It also seems that when I google from Firefox I am in the brazilian version.
