This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account. Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only Guest login created by "Find My Mac."
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.

    I have a problem with youtube...i can't watch some videos from youtube! They stop after few seconds of playing!! what can i do to fix it??

    Try loading the same video in different browsers (Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Internet Explorer are your best options). If the issue is across all of them, make sure you've downloaded the latest version of Flash at http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    If it's still stopping after that...Do the tried and tested method for everything: reset your router.

  • Can't watch some video

    As examples I cannot play CNN video, CBS video, money magazine video or dsc.discovery.com/tv-shows/ videos on my Macbook Pro, 10.7.5 in Safari 6.0.5.
    Some video works, You-Tube for instance. What could cause this?

    CNN as well as the other sites including YouTube require Flash.
    Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Advanced tab.
    Click Delete all under Browsing Data and Settings.
    Back to Safari. Empty the cache by pressing Command + Option + E on your keyboard.
    Quit and relaunch Safari. Try a video on CNN.

  • My i phone 4 fell down and I can't connect to my provider.it also recharges itself within a few minutes and the back of the phone is really hot.what should i do?

    my i phone 4 fell down and I can't connect to my provider.it also recharges itself within a few minutes and the back of the phone is really hot. I tried to send it to the technical support but they told my that the reparationcosts will be higher than the actual price of a new phone.is this possible?

    Yes, it is entirely possible.
    Although in most countries Apple offers an out of warranty replacement for a nominal fee.  In the US it is $199 for the 4S and $149 for older generations of the iPhone.  Depending on where you are, that may be an option.

  • Can't watch apple video on website

    I cannot watch the latest iPad commercial that is on the apple website. The start arrow has a line through it.

    Apple website as well as their iPod, iPhone & iPad support HTML5. Apple's website functions and videos are avalable to watch at your disposal on any iDevice. There may be some issues with the wesite itself, so I would suggest waiting a couple of minutes and check back. I have watched Apples's TV spots and videos with my iPhone and iPad so don't worry.

  • HT5254 I have gone through the process for "Malware Removal Tool" and I cannot find a place where to make this tool work? Can somebody tell me?

    First of all, I would like to know how do I know that I have "Flashback Malware" in my computer? - I have decided to install the removla tool just in case, but cannot find anywhere to activate and start the process of cleaning or detecting this malware. Will appreciate some advise on this subject.

    Did you install it via Software Update or did you download the Apple malware installer software? If so, there's nothing for you to do. It's all automatic. There are no programs to run. See:
    Helpful Links Regarding Flashback Trojan
    Visit Thomas Reed's site for insight and help: Mac Malware Guide
    A Google search can reveal a variety of alternatives on how the remove the trojan should your computer get infected. This can get you started. However, be careful about what you do as new variants of the malware circumvent the efforts of earlier tools.
    Also see Apple's article About Flashback malware.
    Apple has released Java updates for Snow Leopard and Lion users:
    Java for OS X Lion 2012-003; available only for users of Lion with Java installed.
    Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 8; available only for users of Snow Leopard.
    Flashback malware removal tool; available only for users of Lion without Java installed.
    Install whichever shows up in Software Update. It removes the malware (if present), updates Java (if present) and tightens up Java settings for the future.  You may download from Apple's web site instead of using Software Update, but it's important to know which one to get, because the other two won't work for you.

  • Why I can't watch any video on Apple official website?

    Why I can't watch any video on Apple official website? Everytime I open it it's only a blank frame. I have already downloaded QuickTime several times, it's a windows8.1 PC.

    I am new to Ubuntu, but I see videos ok. Firefox may play some natively but I also have FlashPlayer installed. IIRC FlashPlayer is not on the original Ubuntu 11.10 CD but has to be installed as a separate Firefox plugin. From your system information aside it appears you do already have FlashPlayer installed.
    * Have you got FlashPlayer enabled currently ?
    * I Note you have [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DivX Div X] installed, which is not something I know about, but could that be interfering with some videos, have you tried disabling Div X.

  • How can I watch the video on the ABC news website?

    You guys have talked about this issue before, but just in case there has been any changes or ideas I was wondering...
    Is there a way for us Mac people to watch video on the ABC news web site? I used to be able to when ABC was using Real Media. But they went in house and I couldn't watch their archived stuff. Like World News Tonight programs.
    Oddly, there is video on the site that I can watch. Like shorter stories.
    Also, on MSNBC, I can watch the daily news broadcast, but can't watch other video on the MSNBC site.
    I'm not really computer savy, but I do understand this has something to do with "the platform" ABC news is using.
    Any ideas or good results?
    Thanks,
    Mylesaway

    First of all, thanks for all your help.
    But here's the deal, some of the videos do and always have played on the ABC website for me. But not all. The free stuff on the first page all plays. The other videos on other pages do not. Not now, and not before when I had a paid subscription. It's the archived material or whole World News Tonight and Nightline shows that are not playing for me.
    But again, the individual stories on the front page of the site do play.
    Same problem with the MSNBC website. But with a slight twist. It says I don't have the needed video player. And can't watch the smaller stories on the front page of the site. However, when I try to watch the webcasts of the entire NBC NIGHTLY NEWS with BRIAN WILLIAMS, I can watch it with no problem at all!
    Plus, I do have the Macromedia Flash player installed on my computer. And it still doesn't work.
    Thanks,
    Myles

  • How can I watch a video clip in my iPad 3?

    I just got an attached video clip from my brother, sent to my hotmail. When I open the clip, it just shows an overcrossed play bottom! How can I watch a video clip in hotmail, using an iPad? Do I need to download an app or what? Please!?

    Well on a Mac you can install
    Flash
    Silverlight
    Perian
    VLC
    Flip4Mac
    DivX
    and many other codecs/tools to watch anything.
    Guess the iOS isn't really all that it's cracked up to be, ignoring the wider world out there.
    Your only choice to complain to Apple about closed devices they make, but of course they know this already and using the iPad as a cheap "netbook" halo effect device so you get to upgrade to a Mac, just like they do with iPhones and iPods.
    In the meanwhile they are slowly closing the door on OS X, a little at a time so it's not noticeable.
    Pretty soon the excuse will be "sorry I can't play your video you sent me mom, I've got a Mac"

  • I can't watch a video with the extension mpg or avi or anyother one using flexplayer for my ipad. Which player i can download to watch the videos that i receive in my email?

    I can't watch a video with the extension mpg or avi or anyother one using flexplayer for my ipad. Which player i can download to watch the videos that i receive in my email?

    Unfortunatelly, something’s not working fine on Flexplayer during the last cupple of months. A lot of updates have been released lately and the problems persist. Since iOS 6 was on the air, the problems became even worst. It’s a shame, but I think it’s time to change the app we are using. The alternative I found is 8Player, it works fine, similar to Flexplayer (but nicer interfase), and the best is that it supports “.flv” (not sure Flexplayer did). You can save your files to your hard disc using iTunes and then transfer them again to your idevice, once you’ve installed 8Player. I hope this helps. Bye bye Flexplayer!!
