I cannot watch yahoo videos using your service; switch to internet explorer to watch; do I need to delete your serverice and switch to internet explorer? I would like that question answered first.

Hi kaylenmar, I assume videos play normally for you on YouTube and other sites.
There have been several long threads about Yahoo! videos and what might make them different from other sites. The upshot is that different people have found different problems and different solutions. For example, extensions that filter or block ads or prevent tracking can cause problems, as can the click-to-play feature.
One approach that worked for most people who mentioned trying it is to switch to Firefox 24, which is in the final two weeks of its beta testing period. You can expect a few more rough edges with a beta version than with the released version. However, it might be worth it if you don't like switching browsers to watch Yahoo videos.
I suggest making a backup of your Firefox settings folder before installing Firefox 24. This article has tips on doing that: [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]].
Firefox 24 beta is available here: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/beta/

  • All of a sudden I cannot watch any videos using Firefox, not even from YouTube. Why?

    All of a sudden I cannot watch any videos using Firefox. All I get is a square black box. I can see them if I use Safari. Why isn't my Firefox working? What can I do? Thanks.

    Try clearing the Cache in Firefox.
    Tools-> Clear Recent History -> [v] Cache
    or Firefox->Preferences->Advanced->Network -> Offline storage -> [Clear Now]
    Try clearing the Youtube cookie in Firefox->Preferences->Privacy
    refresh page.
    If that still does not work then try making the youtube url as http'''s'''://
    It is apparently a issue with Youtube as people with other browsers are getting the same. http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/youtube/thread?hl=en&tid=3cda4dac122b8f13

  • Anyone else have the issue where, after the 8,3 upgrade, you cannot access more than 1 exchange account on your iPhone? This is annoying to me as I need to access 4 daily and cannot due to this error.

    Anyone else have the issue where, after the 8,3 upgrade, you cannot access more than 1 exchange account on your iPhone? This is annoying to me as I need to access 4 daily and cannot due to this error.
    The first one, my private home email, works fine. With the other 3, I get the message "Cannot get mail: The connection to the server failed"
    All were working fine before the 8.3 upgrade. I did try the old trick of making one minor change on the account and resaving, but that did not change anything. I even deleted my work account and re-entered it from scratch, but again, sadly, no luck. For the time being, I am successfully getting the email via IMAP, but this ***** compared to exchange. Anyone have any idea what is happening or if a fix is in the works?

    Well, the one set up on exchange 2k3 is now working fine, although no changes were made on either the iPhone or the exchange side, so that's fun, but it still is throwing errors when connecting to the other 2 exchange accounts. The common elements are that both non-functioning exchange accounts are google apps for business accounts. So is one of the ones that's working, by the way. The settings on both accounts are the same as the one that's working, and both worked fine before the 8.3 upgrade. I have no issue accessing both of these accounts on my ipad which is currently on 8.2.x. If it's not the iphone OS at fault, I'm at a loss as to what it could be.

    Connect the iPod to your computer. Click on the iPod under Devices and iTunes. How large is the "other" category as shown in the colored bargraph? If larger than about 3/4 GB, restore the iPod. That large of "other" indicates corrupted files.

  • Plse help I can't watch yahoo video on my iPhone

    How can I watch yahoo news video on my iPhone? It cannot play and there's a message saying the server is not correctly configured. I thought the iphone play everything. But I have no problem watching video on youtub. Why is that, please somebody help me.

    iPhones don't play "everything."  If the video is Flash video, it won't play.  YouTube accessed from the website uses Flash and won't play, but the app accesses H.264 - HTML5 which does play.
    Video formats supported: H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format

  • Why won't my iphone 4S will not allow me to watch Yahoo videos?

    My iphone 4S will not alllow me to watch Yahoo online videos. I think it might be related to Quicktime but I am not sure. I've checked with another older iphone user and they are able to see it. Any help please!

    Pressing the Home button twice does not show you what apps are running. It shows you what apps were recently used.
    Download a free app from the App Store. Once it downloads, your other apps should work properly again.

  • Youtube videos do not play in Firefox. I have this error: "You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video," even after I have followed the link.

    This error message appears when trying to view Youtube videos: "You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video," even though I have already installed the suggested piece of software.

    You have 2 versions of "Shockwave Flash" (Adobe Flash Player) installed; one very old version (7.0 r19) and the current version (10.0 r45). You can see both "Shockwave Flash" plugins by going to Tools > Add-ons > Plugins. You can disable the old version 7 there.
    <u>'''To disable the old version'''</u>:
    http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Using+plugins+with+Firefox#Managing_plugins
    <u>'''Remove the old plugin'''</u>
    1. If the old version 7 is showing as "Adobe Flash Player 7 Plugin" in your Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs, you can remove it from there; click on it, click Remove. See: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Uninstall-or-change-a-program
    2. If the old version 7 is not shown in Add or Remove programs, see: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins#Manually_uninstalling_a_plugin . Some of the old plugins are in the Plugins folder of your programs Firefox install folder and can be renamed or removed from there manually.

  • Why am I NOW having major issues watching YouTube videos using WiFi vs Ethernet?

    Why am I having major issues watching YouTube videos when the cable modem is connected to Airport Extreme, but they work flawlessly if my computer is connected directly to the modem? Comcast is the internet provider. 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo is the iMac. Getting the dreaded "This video is currently unavailable" OR "An error occurred. Please try again later." I swap back and forth... it's unbelievable. Videos that give errors over WiFi play fine when hooked up via ethernet.

    If your wireless connection is slow, video streaming will stutter or fail completely. The wireless connection can be slow if there are other wireless networks in your area, all competing for the same limited number of wireless channels.
    If you have a fairly new Extreme, you can use 5 GHz. Your iMac is capable of using it, and this will mitigate the effects of wireless interference.
    Keep one thing in mind - if in the course of troubleshooting you have been routinely disconnecting and reconnecting your Extreme and the iMac to your modem - "swapping back and forth" as you described - be sure to power down the modem first. Most cable modems will refuse to communicate with a different device, until after you reset it by powering it down. If you want to compare wired speeds to wireless, connect your iMac to one of the Extreme's LAN ports instead, and turn off the iMac's wireless in its WiFi menu. Its speed should be nearly identical to that you will have by connecting it directly to the modem. Swapping connections in this manner does not require a power down cycle.

  • While I was watching a video using VLC then a small black screen appeared.

    I was watching a video I copied from a VCD onto my iMac. While watching a small black screen appeared blocking the way. I could drag it out but it gets annoying at times. Like while watching 2012 this screen appeared while Jackson and others were in the small plane. Anyways, this small screen cannot be closed unless I close the program and relaunch it. By time this same small screen appeared. I don't know why. Not only my iMac has this problem, even my dad's Macbook Pro has the same problem as well.
    Can someone tell me what to do and how to prevent this?
    Thanks

    Try to play with ur RAM , take out 1 socket and try to power it on with 1 stick ..

  • If I use time machine to back up my computer do I still need to backup my photos and videos separately?

    If I use time machine to back up my computer do I still need to back up my photos and videos or is it already done?

    Time Machine backs up everything except the things you tell it to skip.
    But what happens if there is a problem with your drive AND there is a different problem with Time Machine's drive?

    HI..
    If you are using Adobe Reader ...
    Try uninstalling the current copy of Adobe Reader first.
    Best to use a utility to do this to make sure all the associated files are removed as well >  Download AppCleaner for Mac - Uninstall your apps easily. MacUpdate.com
    Then reinstall >  http://get.adobe.com/reader/
    Quit then relaunch Safari to test.

  • Ibook crashed when  watching yahoo video

    Hi anyone out there,
    I have an ibook G4 made in the end of 2005. Running Tiger 1.4.11. Recently I was watching a news clip on Yahoo and it crashed Safari and then froze the cursor. When I went to repower I got a spinning wheel and the computer wouldn't reboot. . I then opened the drive with Allsoft Disc warrior and rebuilt the drive. It has been working fine for 4 days now and suddenly it did the same thing again today. This time when it crashed Safari I was given a box with error message that said to restart the computer. I did so and then the wheel just spun and I figured I will have to Disc warrior again. All I did was put the disc in while it was on the grey page w/ apple logo and it booted up Does anyone have a clue as to what's happening??

    Does this iBook have the original hard drive in it? If so, it is getting to be 4-5 years old. The average useful life of a hard drive is 3-5 years, so if it's the original, it's likely getting pretty long in the tooth.
    First thing to do--back up your data and keep it backed up.
    Next, go to Disk Utility and see what the S.M.A.R.T. status of your drive is. For a detailed look, download S.M.A.R.T. Utility. You can download the demo and run it several times for free.
    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/32454
    My guess is that your hard drive is going south and will need to be replaced.
    Good luck!

  • I cannot hear callers unless using speakerphone. the phone is not on mute, the problem has started for no apparent reason and rebooting has not resolved the problem. Any ideas?

    My iphone 4 (Model MD128B/A) running iOS 7.1.2 has developed a problem when receiving calls, for no apparent reason. The caller can hear me, but unless I switch to speakerphone, I cannot hear them. The mute button still functions normally. I have rebooted the phone but this has not resolved the issue. Any ideas about how to resolve this problem? Thanks.

    Hello manleyjohn,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you are unable to hear callers though the receiver on your iPhone 4 unless you change the sound to the speaker. In this situation, I would recommend reading over the attached article and verifying that the troubleshooting steps have been completed. If the issue continues, it may be necessary to follow the link towards the bottom of the article and contact Apple Support. 
    If you can't hear a person on a call or voicemail or if the sound quality is poor on iPhone - Apple Support
    Have a great day,
    Joe
