I can't seem to watch YouTube videos anymore on my macbook pro.
I've had my laptop for just over a month and have had no issues up until this week where I can't play videos on YouTube anymore. I don't think I did anything...
Any ideas?
The YouTube website opens as usual but where the video should play it's just a black box with no controls. Scrolling over does nothing.

Hi, I can't seem to change my desktop screensaver for my MacBook Pro.
Hi, I can't seem to change my desktop screensaver for my MacBook Pro. When I open my system preferences and click the screensaver option the cursor loads and loads but never lets me actually click anything. Nor do my pictures upload to let me chose. It's been doing this for months and it is irritating. Is there a specfic reason why the cursor won't load at all? Any way I can fix that?
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard (command-C):
~/Library/Preferences/ByHost
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return. A folder should open. If it does, look for a file with a long name that begins "com.apple.screensaver". There may be two such files. Select the onewithout the word "slideshow" in the name and open the Info dialog (command-I).
Does the dialog show "You can read and write" in the Sharing & Permissions section?
In the General section, is the box labeled Locked checked?

Can no longer watch Youtube videos anymore Firefox 3.0.3 mac os x 10.4.11
Can no longer watch YouTube videos all of a sudden. Firefox 3.0.3 mac os x 10.4.11. Please help. Thank you.
Yes, thank you very much. The problem was related to the Flash plugin. It had been disabled by Firefox 'for my safety' apparently. No supported versions available any longer by Adobe for ppc macs - had to download an older version from an archive site - fixed the problem. No more crashes on Firefox or Safari while on Youtube.

I have my mid 2010 macbook pro. Just last night while using facebook i tried to watch a video and it won't play and it says that i need update adobe flash. But when i watch youtube videos on safari it plays perfectly fine. Is there a problem with facebook concerning adobe flash?.................please help.......i need some answers!!!
Isn't suppose to be a software update for adobe that can fix this problem....
No.
Software Update is for Apple software. Adobe is 3rd party. -
I was given an option to upgrade to Firefox 4, so I did. Ever since I have done this, Facebook is taking a very long time to load. All FB apps either take a few minutes to load or just dont load. I have tried to watch Youtube and the videos are taking longer to view. I have tried to watch videos and they keep skipping. I have tried to reload the page, restart my computer and even upgrade flash but I already have the updated version. I need to know if their is any way to downgrade back the the Fairfox version that I had.
Upgraded to Firefox4 too. Suddenly I started to notice that browsing pages in my webbrowser qaws horrible laggy and I was seriously wondering if my connection was acting up, yet everything non-browser related was working just fine.
I can't even watch music videos on youtube now, as it will only load up to a 3rd of the song and then just stop loading anything more untill I click on the bar on a spot it hasn't loaded, and then it will start from there untill it gets to a 'block' again.
In other words: totally unusable for me.
I tried uninstalling firefox4 and going back to the 3.6.17 version, but now the issues haunt me in that versino too. It's like firefox4 sunk its teeth into my system once, and then older versions won't work proper either :(
Seriously considering just getting a different browser to be able to actually BROWSE the web again >:( -
I recently upgraded my macbook pro 1,1 to a macbook pro i7 i had a dvi-i to video adapter to connect it to the tv.
the new macbook i7 uses thunderbolt to connect, i bought a dvi-d to thunderbolt connection to bridge with the old adapter but this now doesnt work.
is there a thunderbolt to video adapter? or can anyone suggest a proper way to connect the two?The only Thunderbolt display I'm aware of is Apple's. However, the Thunderbolt port on your MBP is also a mini-displayport and that is the normal way of connecting an external display to your MBP. You therefore need a mini-displayport to whatever you need on the TV end, e.g. HDMI. Apple have a good selection of cables on their online store.

I can't seem to close the screen on my new MacBook Pro with ext montitor
I have a new MacBook Pro with a Samsung T240 through the DVI link. I can see my desktop on the external monitor when the laptop screen is open, but if I close it the computer goes to sleep and I cannot see anything on the T240.
I have the Bluetooth keyboard and the Bluetooth mouse. The mouse also deactivates until I manually browse for it after I wake the computer up by opening the screen.
I know I should be able to keep the display closed but how do I do this? Thanks!MrAceXPS wrote:

Let the laptop sleep, then hit a key on the keyboard or wiggle the mouse to wake it up. -

Why can't i play you tube videos on my new macbook pro?
i've downloaded adobe flash player for mac on safari, but i'm still unable to play videos on you tube, can somebody help please?
The Flash plug-in failure on Lion, is a Safari issue that can be fixed with these steps:
My Flash Player plug-in would not play videos on YouTube (using Safari in Lion). It turned out that my Safari settings needed to be reset after the recent Lion 10.7.4 and Flash upgrades. I called Apple tech...
This is what we did to fix it:
1. Open Safari.
2. Go to top left menu, under "Safari" click on "Reset Safari."
3. UNCHECK the first two boxes, leave the next three checked, plus UNCHECK the next two, and keep the last three checked.
4. Hit "Reset"
5. After the reset finishes, Safari will relaunch and you can test Flash by going to YouTube to see that videos will now play.
Thanks Apple Care! -
Hi any help out there, I have messed up e.mail should have had some training. I tried sending photo as attachment to e.mail but attached the whole application, of course this got thrown back, tried to delete it no luck . Now at a loss what to do mail box and mac now sooooo slow and cant seem to get rid of deleted mail??? comes up with error from imap server for gmail message to large ..has anybody else had this ?
If the message is still 'stuck' in your gmail account, you should be able to log into the web service and delete it. Don't know why it won't delete on the Mail side. Quitting Mail should delete the sent msg - don't know why it doesn't.
Give it a shot...

I can't seem to run a hardware diagnostics on my MacBook Pro.
I recently had an issue with the Wi-Fi hardware on my MacBook. I wasn't able to view any local networks. Instead, the menu option stated that there was an issue with my wireless hardware. I resterted my MacBook and the issue persisted. My computer also went to sleep and I wasn't able to wake it up. Since then, everything is back to normal and functioning properly. I searched some articles on the support site on how to run the diagnostics at startup, but holding down the D key doesn't do anything. I'm currently running the latest version of Mavericks (10.9) and I have a 15-inch, mid 2010 MacBook Pro. Is there something missing that's causing me not to have the on-board diagnostics available to me? Is there even a way to check for something liek that? Any advice is greatly appreciated in advance.
ChrisJ1927,
with Mid 2010 MacBook Pros, you’ll need to use the Apple Hardware Test that came on the model-specific grey installation DVDs that originally came in the box. The diagnostic tools on the Recovery Partition aren’t usable on MacBook Pros that were originally equipped with Snow Leopard or before. -
Can't watch youtube videos on my new toshiba laptop.
Hi guys,
I can't seem to run youtube videos on my toshiba L750/OLN laptop. Everytime I try to run a video, the youtube screen stays black and an error message appears. Also in the right corner, it saids something about Adobe Flash Player not being supported by Toshiba Media control Plug in. Please help, I've tried different browsers and the same problem still exists. I've also tried disabling Media controller and reinstalling adobe, but nothing seems to work at the moment.Satellite L750/0LN (PSK2YA-0LN028)
Please attach a picture of the error message. Are you trying to run in full screen - or just to run it?
Is that 32-bit Windows 7?
