I can't play videos on youtube when I'm signed into my account

This problem just started today, prior to this I've had no problems with youtube. Earlier today, I tried to reload a video I had watched earlier and got the message "An error has occurred." I tried everything on youtube troubleshooting page, to no avail. I upgraded to Firefox 24. I tried using youtube in Chrome and Safari, and it worked fine.
Then I tried signing out of my youtube account in Firefox. Videos played just fine. I signed back in, and the error was back. I tried signing into my account in Safari and Chrome (I had not been signed in whem I tested them before) and they still worked.
So videos won't play in Firefox, but only when I'm signed into youtube, and work fine in Safari and Chrome, whether I'm signed in or not.

  • I can't play videos on youtube since I upgraded to Mountain Lion. It says, Blocked Plug-In

    Since I upgraded to Mountain Lion, I can't play videos. It says, "Blocked Plug-In". I never have had a problem before.

    I resolved this problem with the latest Adobe Flash Player. I don't know why it didn't tell me that in the first place.

  • Can't Play Video "need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player"

    Ever since upgrading to FF 26 I can't play video on YouTube or many other sites.
    It says "You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video.
    Download it from Adobe."
    So I click on the link which takes me to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/, do the install which goes without trouble.
    But afterwards I get the same message when I try to play videos.
    Running Windows 7 on a Desktop PC. Having NO problems playing videos in IE or Chrome. FF used to be great but it's becoming more trouble than it's worth.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello,
    You can try uninstalling it completely via the control panel and then installing it back on to the computer. You can also do a plugin check if you'd like.
    Please check if all your plugins are up-to-date. To do this, go to the [http://mozilla.com/plugincheck Mozilla Plugin Check site].
    Once you're there, the site will check if all your plugins have the latest versions.
    If you see plugins in the list that have a yellow ''Update'' button or a red ''Update now'' button, please update these immediately.
    To do so, please click each red or yellow button. Then you should see a site that allows you to download the latest version. Double-click the downloaded file to start the installation and follow the steps mentioned in the installation procedure.

  • I am getting iTunes "error 5002" when trying to sign in on my computer, and cannot sign into my account on my iPod. What's wrong?

    Hello!
    When I try to sign in to my iTunes account on both my computer, an error pops up saying,
    "We could not complete your iTunes store request. An unknown error occured (5002)
    There was an error in the iTunes store. Please try again later."
    When I trying signing into my account on my iPod, I get a message saying,
    "Cannot connect to iTunes store"
    I have seen across the internet that this has happened while trying to purchase things, but I can not even sign in!
    I have also seen a case just like this, but many, many people were having that problem at the same time.
    It seems like right now, only I am having this issue.
    I can sign into my mother's iTunes account perfectly fine. ( I was using her account for a while, until I decided to switch to my own)
    I have had an apple ID for a while now, but never have used it for iTunes.
    I can sign into the "my apple id" website perfectly fine, just not iTunes on my iPod or computer!
    I can not even sign into the appstore! (When trying to sign into the app store, it just says an unknown error occured, it doesn't say 5002)
    What shall I do?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Select
    /var/log ▹ appstore.log
    from the hierarchical list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar. Then select the messages from the last installation or update attempt, starting from the time when you initiated it. If you're not sure when that was, click the Clear Display button in the toolbar of the Console window and then try the installation again.
    Copy the messages to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.

  • HT204291 I can play videos from youtube and it does just fine, but when I try to play videos i've bought from itunes in my "videos", it plays the sound but no video.  Please advise,,,

    Using airplay, with Iphone5 latest os, appletv3, I can play videos from youtube and internet just fine, but when I try to play videos bought from Itunes in my "videos" file, it only plays sound, no video.  Please advise,,,

    I am also having this issue.  Hear but not see. I am using the iTunes video app on my iPad to play a show I bought on iTunes.   A little pop up box comes up on the lower left of my tv showing the show , I can hear it but not see it.  Rebooted Apple TV and iPad. No help.  

  • I can't play videos (youtube for example) unless it is in full screen mode. The audio works in either, but the video only shows in full screen. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I can't play videos (you tube for example) except in full screen mode. The audio works in either, but the video doesn't load or run in the normal you tube web site.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Also, the error console shows all sorts of different errors. Though, alot of error parsing values.

    Do you have any Mail plug-ins? In particular, do you
    have any plug-ins installed on one computer but not
    the other? In the Finder, go to each of the following
    folders (if they exist). What do you see there?
    /Library/InputManagers/
    Not Found
    /Library/Mail/Bundles/
    Not Found
    ~/Library/InputManagers/
    Smart Crash Reports Folder / Smart CrashReports.bundle
    ~/Library/Mail/Bundles/
    MailRecent.mailbundle
    > I have a number of Mail Rules in
    place which place messages
    of certain topics in specific Smart
    Mailboxes
    This doesn’t make sense to me. You cannot tell a rule
    to move messages to a smart mailbox, only to a normal
    mailbox. Each smart mailbox has its own set of
    conditions that messages must satisfy in order for
    them to appear there.
    OK. I misstated this. I have a number of Smart Mailboxes with their specific rules in which to route certain topics to specify mailboxes. I am trying to not have to create each Smart Mailbox on each computer.
    The problem is that when I am on the road I add contacts, bookmarks, keychain items, contacts into my laptop and vice versa when home. I would just like to have those Sync on both computers. Seems like it should be easy, but it hasn't been.
    I really don't think I have anything "non-standard." A few Smart Mailboxes, a couple of signatures, thats pretty much it.
    Note: For those not
    familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers
    to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any
    of the folders referred to in this post by copying
    the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder
    in the Finder, and pasting the folder path
    there.

  • Firefox won't play videos from YouTube, Hulu, etc. w/latest Flash version.

    Despite following both Firefox and Flash directions, Firefox won't play videos from YouTube, Hulu, etc. They either never load or they load and freeze within seconds. Before I got the latest versions of Firefox and Flash, I did not have this problem. So there must be a problem in one or both of them. Since I understand from various websites that this is a widespread problem, can Firefox fix this? It's a major flaw in the latest Firefox version.

  • My iPod touch 5th gen can't play videos?

    I've had my iPod touch 5th gen since Christmas Eve and I haven't had any problems with it, but a few days ago it stopped playing videos and now - even though I have turned it off and back on and turned the wifi off and back on again - it still can't play videos off any site, Facebook, dailymotion, YouTube, nothing. But I can view webpages and get Internet connection just fine!!
    So if you know what I could do to fix it please help because it's very frustrating!!! Thanks

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: 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 network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - 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. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Can't play videos on a newly upgraded iBook

    I have recently upgraded my iBook G3 to 10.4.11. I also added an Airport card and a 512 MB RAM card. I can do pretty much anything on the internet (Safari 4.0.4) but can't play videos. The picture is really jumpy & laggy and the sound continues out of sync with the picture. Am I missing something or is the computer just not advanced enough to keep up?

    Hi, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Streaming video on an iBook G3 is a toughie.
    Some suggestions which I found to help:
    Restart the computer and open only the browser you want to use. Don't have any other applications open when you're attempting to watch streaming video.
    Sometimes Firefox worked better for me than Safari (but I never used 10.4 on my iBook G3).
    Some people have reported luck using VLC:
    http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-macosx.html
    As a last resort, if possible, download the video and watch it from your hard drive.
    Keep in mind that the last, best iBook G3 (900 MHz) was last produced in October of 2003, so you have a very old iBook attempting to play the latest versions of video, so things are often not very workable.
    Good luck.
