I can't get flash player to play flash videos

I just bought an 24" 2.16 Core 2 Duo iMac and migrated my accounts from my G4 PowerBook and G4 800mhz iMac.
I go to websites such as Jay Leno's garage and LeftLaneNews ( http://www.leftlanenews.com/2006/11/17/ford-bold-moves-22-professional-drivers-o n-a-closed-course/#more-4422 ) and the Flash Player 9 videos don't play. No erros. It just acts like it is forever downloading them and ... nothing.
I'm using Mac OS X 10.4.8 and Safari. I found the Flash uninstall for Mac OS X on Adobe's website and ran that (with all browsers closed" then downloaded and re-installed Flash 9. It shows that Flash 9 successfully installed.

Just to make it clear. I still can play Flash videos.

I can't get my player to play videos while other apps are open IPAD 4gen

I can't get my player to play videos while other apps are open IPAD 4gen
Whenever, I have pages open or any other app I press the home button twice, and then I swipe to the right and obtain the menu that allows me to alter brightness or sound. At this point I press play and nothing works. However, once I go back to my youtube page, and press the play button then it works. If anyone could help me that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.

just click the serial number in itunes ... geeze... just kidding
you might be able to find it on the mac...
in finder do your username under places then library then application support then MobileSync then Backups
the shortest folder name should be the UDID
of course that assumes it ever made a backup...
if it made more than one there will be some -date-blah on the end...

I can not get any sound while playing Flash content in IE, FireFox, or Chrome

I have Windows 7, 64 bit. I have ie 8, I think it is 32 bit, ("About ie" does not indicate 64bit).
I have unistalled Adobe Flash and re-installed, I have verified that I have the REG files under System32/ and SysWOW64/ (or whatever)...
I installed Chrome after I have having this problem. I have plugged my speakers into both the AudioJack in the back of machine, as well as in the headphone Jack. I have tried just using headphones...
I have gone to the 'configuration site' I have deleted Windows temporary files, I have deleted i.e. and FireFox files.
I have checked multimedia setting in ie advanced tabs.
I have checked the sound volume in the 'Mixer'
Sound works in my broser for Quicktime applications (like video on apples website). Sound works everywhere else...playing music, Windows startup, speaker test, etc...
I have worked on this for hours!!! Please help.
Thanks!

Below are the Steps from:
http://www.codecguide.com/fix_for_flash_sound_problems.htm
And my results:
Flash stores its files in a temporary files folder. A corrupt download can cause the sound problems.
Delete the following folders:
C:\Documents and Settings\%UserName%\Application Data\Adobe\Flash Player
C:\Documents and Settings\%UserName%\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash Player
Actually…Note that point 1 sould be %APPDATA%\Adobe\Flash Player%APPDATA%\Macromedia\Flash Player
(Thanks willener)

Install the latest version of the Flash plugin. You can download it HERE. If you have problems upgrading the plugin, then uninstall your existing version first with this tool. Close your browser(s) before you run the uninstall tool.

Run the K-Lite Codec Tweak Tool. Near the top you should see an option to fix the sound (Midi, WaveOut). Select that and press Next. If the option is grayed out, then that particular registry fix is not needed. This fix will restore a missing "wavemapper" registry key.

Check if your sound device settings are correct:
Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Sound and Audio Devices -> Audio
This is not correct instructions for Windows 7.
Obviously I have checked sound settings in RealTek Audio manger several times. As well as in the mixer, and in the Internet Option Settings (Advanced Multimedia). I checked setting under “Hardware and Sound” there is nothing there that has any effect.
If you have QuickTime installed, then go to the QuickTime control panel. On the Audio tab, set "Default Music Synthesizer" to "General MIDI".
On the Advanced tab, disable "Enable playback of Adobe Flash tracks".
On the browser tab, click on "MIME Settings". Under "Miscellaneous", make sure "Flash media" is unchecked.
These are not accurate options on my computer (Quicktime 7.6.9).
Under Default Music Synthesizer. There is no “general MIDI” only option is “Quicktime Music Synthesizer”
Advanced Tab: “Enable playback of Adobe Flash tracks".is not an option
Browser Tab: "Flash media" is not listed under MIME Settings (There is no Miscellaneous)
Check if the file msacm32.drv is present in the C:\Windows\system32 folder. If not, copy it from another PC (that has the same version of Windows) and place the file in the system32 folder. If you are using a 64-bit version of Windows, then the file should be present in the C:\Windows\SysWOW64 folder.
Verified these files are here.
If you are also having sound problems with other applications, then re-installing your audio drivers might solve the problem.
I am not having problems with other audio applications, but I still completed this – No help

How can I get my stereo to play music videos from my Ipod Nano? It comes up with the message "This device not supported". Strangely my Iphone IS recognised. The stereo, Ipod, and Iphone are less than 4 months old. Any suggestions welcome!

How do I get my Ipod to play music videos through my theatre system? I keep getting the message "This device not supported". My theatre system WILL recognise my Iphone however. The theatre system, Ipod, and Iphone are all less than 4 months old. Any suggestions welcome!

Check with the theater system vendor and see if their system is compatible with the Nano. The resolution on the Nano may be too low for the system.

Can't find flash player to play downloaded videos

I've downloaded the latest version of flash player successfully, and I can see it on the control pannel, but it won't appear on my list of programs, or when I try to play a downloaded .flv file.
I use Windows XP Professional, version 5.1, 32 bit, Mozilla Firefox 24.0, Flash Player 11.9.900.
As a note, all videos play fine when I use Firefox, and I've already tried all the solutions offered on this page:

You won't find it in programs because it ISN'T one. It's a browser plugin, and will appear in Add-ons for Firefox (or Plugins for IE)
You can Download the Windows Flash Player 11.9 Projector which is a standalone player, but it lacks most of the controls like videos have in a web browser.
You'll find FLV files play A LOT better if you use VLC Media Player.
I've used it for FLV, MP4, MPEG, MOV, WMV, and AVI playback for years.

Can't get quicktime player to play captured FCE movies

we updated our groups computer to a mini with lion. We captuer movies with FCE 4.1 using fire wire or s-vidio. It all works fine (capture save etc) in FCE. The problem is when you want to pre-view them from the desktop. When you double click the cip (which is shown as data type: quicktime movie) quicktime player opens, but will not play the clip. if i transfer the file to an external drive and then put that drive on a computer with snowlepord, quicktime player 10 plays the clip fine. What do i need to do or fix quicktime player in lion? I suppose i can download quicktime 7 pro from an Snowlepord machine, but i would like to get lion's player to work

re-read my post and i must clarify it just a bit. The sound plays on the mini with lion, but no picture. The rest is still true. Again if anyone can help i would appreciate it.

Flash Player Not Playing YouTube Videos bigger than 360p on IE10

Hi Guys
I've been playing YouTube videos on Internet Explorer 10 without a problem but today I suddenly cannot play any video higher than 360p. All I get is a black oblong box with no loading wheel or player controls. When I right click it says "movie not loaded". My Flash Player is version 11,9,900,117. I can still play 720p on Firefox or Chrome, although they do not seem as smooth as they used to (but that may just be my imagination).
Any ideas why and what I can do? All the research suggests it could be Flash Player but I appreciate this problem may not be directly Flash Player (I'm trying all the various forums to try and identify where the problem is).
Regards,
Graham

Flash Player only plays one video on Fox News

When I first open Safari and go to Fox News videos, it will play the first one but after that, it goes black and shows nothing.
I tried uninstalling and installing the newest version but still nothing. I can watch videos everywhere else but here.
Any suggestions?

The videos that DO work are most likely HTML5 which requires no plugin.
Spotlight search "Flash Player.plugin" and trash EVERYTHING in the results.
Go to: [user]/Library/Preferences (Hold the "Option" key when you click "Go" from the Finder menu to access this folder)
Trash the com.macromedia.Flash Player.app.plist file.
Trash the Macromedia folder from there as well (the WHOLE folder).
Go to: Mac HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe
Trash the Flash Player folder and the Flash Player Install Manager folder.
Go to: Mac HD/Library/ Internet Plugins.
Trash the flashplayer.xpt file.
Empty the trash.
Download the offline installer: http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/licensing/mac /install_flash_player_11_osx.dmg and run it.
If after all that, it still doesn't work, we'll need to look at other plugins you have that may be causing a conflict.
I have Safari, Firefox, Opera and Chrome, as well as a few "off brand" browsers and Flash Player works in all of them. Late 2012 Mini, Core15, 16Gb RAM.

Flash player not playing internet video content

HP Pavillion 60-1120 Touchsmart
My flash player is not playing internet video?? Any ideas.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hi,
Try the following.
First, download the Flash uninstall utility on the link below and save it to your Desktop.
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/uninstall_flash_player.exe
When the download has completed, close all browser windows and run the uninstaller. After this has completed, restart the notebook.
Next, download and install Firefox and then using Firefox, download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash.
Close all browser windows before running the Flash installer.
Launch Firefox and see if the videos play Ok - if they do, close Firefox, open IE and click on the same Adobe Flash link above to get a prompt to install the ActiveX component. When done, restart IE.
Regards,
DP-K

How can I get iTunes 11 to play a video's audio over airplay on my Denon?

It still shows AppleTV, but on the previous iTunes version it would play a video's audio on the Denon through Airplay.

If the Denon shows in airplay mirroring you can just turn on mirroring and get the sound. Otherwise try System Preferences -> Sound -> Output and choose the Denon there. Any system sound will play through the airplay device. I don't know why apple doesn't just give an airplay option from the menu bar sound icon to make this easier.... seems like they are pushing people to mirror

Flash Player not playing videos but shows it is installed

Get Flash Player To Play On Top Of Other Windows

I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit on a Dell XPS 8100 with Intel i7 Processor. I am using Windows Live Mail and a Hotmail Live Account for my email. When I click on a link to a video in an email Adobe Flash Player always plays underneath the open windows necessitating my minimizing the other windows to view the video. Other than that Flash Player works great. I am using Mozilla Firefox as my default browser. IE 9 is my other browser. All browsers, Flash Player, and the ATI Radeon 5700 video card are up to date. Windows Media Player and Quicktime Player play on top of open email. Thanks, Sam

I have now isolated this playing on bottom to swf files. Every time my friends with Macs send email attachments I get this. I don't have a solution yet, but the Jpegs and Videos are playing nicely on the bottom window. I just minimize the windows on top for now. I hope to solve this issue even though no viewers of my post so far have come up with a solution.
