I can't watch youtube videos, and when I try my computer makes awful glitch sounds. Is there a way to fix this myself without bringing my macbook in?

I have had my macbook for about half a year. I love anything anime and comic book related except a lot of those websites are unsafe and you get redirected and forced to click "Okay". Youtube was working just fine, until I went to one of those plagued websites and now youtube is a slow and glitchy mess, I can no longer watch videos. I can't click play, and my mac makes awful noises as it tries to play the videos. I have already restarted, updated flash player, and I even updated the software of my laptop, but to no avail.

Setup two new accounts. One as Guest where whatever you do is "lost" (not saved) when you log out. Setup another as "Standard" user. You do not want to be using your computer as Administer account except when doing OS updates or the like.
You should / could / would have been wise to clone your system "back when everything was fine" - usually right after setting up with the OS and Apple's updates.
You upgraded to Yosemite. Consider redownloading Yosemite and saving and create a flash install.
Also backup all your media files - though malware can live inside media files depending on how and where obtained.
Adware is only one part of the puzzle.

I made a video of our summer vacation on imovie. It's over an hour long. When I try to share it, the audio syncs incorrectly at about the 15 minute mark and is off for the rest of the movie. Is there a way to fix this? I think I have imovie 09.

If you think getting your web pages to appear OK in all the major browsers is tricky then dealing with email clients is way worse. There are so many of them.
If you want to bulk email yourself, there are apps for it and their templates will work in most cases...

IPod touch 3rd generation has dim screen and no touch screen response. I've replaced the digitizer and the screen. I've also reset it and did a complete restore still nothing. Is there any way to fix this myself? Does it just need a new memory board?

My 3rd gen iPod touch has a very dim/dark screen and no screen response. I've restored it, still nothing, put a new screen and digitizer and still nothing. I've reset it a 1000 times and nothing works. Is there a way to fix this? It previously had "activation required" on the screen but now it just says "ipod" what do I do now?

Could be due to many things. You could have damaged something during the screen replacement. I would take it to someone with more experience.

IPOD touch Screen is blacked out. I charges and itunes recognizes it, only the screen remains black. Is there any way to fix this Problem. I have the latest software update and I restored it several times, but screen remains blacked out.

My IPOD touch 4th gen screen does not display. The software seems to be working and itunes recognizes the device. I have restored it and reset the IPOD several times but the screen is still black. What can I do to fix it? your help is very much appreciated. I do not have access to an apple store since I am stationed in Afghanistan.

If you restored to factory defaults/new iPod (you did not say the type of restore your performed) and are still having the problem that indicates a hardware problem. An appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order..

I just purchased an album and I cannot get all the songs to play. I was wondering if there was some sort of simple fix or do I have to repurchase this album?

When I put in my earphones to listen to music the sound isn't clear and I have to push and hold them in it in order for it to be. It's not the earphones because I use them in my laptop and they work fine. Is there a way to fix this problem?

Whenever I put my earphones into my iPod Touch 2g the music isn't clear and I have to push and hold them in order to hear the song normally. It isn't the earphones because I tried another pair, that worked fine, and there was still no difference. I also use the same pair of earphones in my laptop and it sounds great. Is there a way to fix this problem without having to buy a brand new iPod touch? Do I need to clean it or something? And if so, how would I go about doing that? Thanks!

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
If still problem that indicates you have a bad headphone jack.
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours. Likely not worth it for your old 2G iPod

I can't watch YouTube videos on my brand new MacBook Pro with Lion. It says I need to download Adobe Flash Player but that won't install. Help!

I can't watch YouTube videos on my brand new MacBook Pro with Lion. It says I need to download Adobe Flash Player but that won't install. Help!

The same thing happens to me, Safari asks me to update the Adobe FlasPlayer, I download, start the installation process, ask me my username and password in order to install, then see a window where I choose if I want to always install the updates , or ask first, or not inslate updates, and at this point it is not progress, I can not cancel the process, I turn off and turn on my machine.
What can I do ..??
Regards.

I can no longer get video to work on FireFox and this happened just after my update to version 13. Is there a way to fix this?

I went and downloaded FF13.0 and now I can no longer view video. At first I was able to view flash, mp4, etc video, then I went to see about updating Real Player and then every stopped working. I at first thought this was just a problem with FF13, but after trying also Internet Explorer I found the same problem. Is there any way pf fixing this problem?

Recent crashes of certain multimedia contents (this includes Youtube videos, certain flash games and other applications) in conjunction with Firefox 13 are most probably caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update and/or a malfunctioning Real Player browser plugin.
In order to remedy the problem, please perform the steps mentioned in these Knowledge Base articles:

[[Flash 11.3 crashes]]
