I cant start videos on a website with firefox

I cannot start a video on a website with firefox. The particalar videos that i wanted to start were the tutorial videos on "sketchup for dummies". The message just says that firefox is not able to run the videos. I want to save them for future use.

IT WORKS!
Thanks jscher2000
I've had this issue for about a week.
The article suggested said ...
If RealPlayer is installed, try this first
Turn off Web Download & Recording in RealPlayer
Launch RealPlayer
Click the RealPlayer icon in the upper left corner of the window and choose Preferences.
Choose Download & Recording from the left hand panel
Uncheck "Enable Web Download & Recording for these installed browsers"
Click OK and close RealPlayer
Restart Firefox
This will remove the RealPlayer Browser Record extension from the Firefox Add-ons Manager.
and this solved my issue.

Could you post an example of the filter message?
This article has more information on the filters built in to Firefox: [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/phishing-protection/ Firefox Phishing and Malware Protection].
It's possible that you also have a Firefox add-on, or external software, that is filtering what you see. However, we don't have enough information to help identify it yet. If you want to review a list of your add-ons, you can find them under: Help > Troubleshooting Information.

Unable to open https websites with Firefox 4 beta 5 after updating from beta4

I am unable to open any https websites with Firefox 4 beta 5. This is happening after I updated to beta5 from beta4 this morning. I reverted back to beta 4.
This happened to most of the secure websites including mozilla's support & add-ons, bank and gmail websites

Looking through the bug notes, it looks like there is a simple work around, switch to Private Browsing Mode.
Works for me for all https sites I have tested.

Flash video has not worked with Firefox browser for years. When will you fix this?

Anyone who uses Firefox browser (for Windows or for Mac) knows that flash video playback ceased working sometime around Firefox ver 13 and has not worked since.
The Mozilla people say it is Adobe's fault - instead of fixing Firefox.
They say roll back to Adobe Flash version 10.
This solves the video problem, but then, any other services that depend on the latest Flash build, quit working properly.
This situation leaves millions of Firefox users in perpetual frustration. We can't use our browser of choice to view any web video built with Flash.
This is so unacceptable. I am unable to understand why Adobe and Firefox don't get together and iron out whatever code incompatibility is causing this.
I would really like to hear Adobe's explanation for this.

Uh... I don't know what planet you posted this from, but Flash video has worked flawlessly with Firefox for hundreds of millions of users here on earth, without any gaps since Firefox was still called Mozilla.
For the record, I have Firefox 28 with Flash Player 13 installed on:
WIndows XP (SP3-64bit)
Windows Vista Ultimate (SP2-64bit)
Windows 7 Ultimate (SP1-64bit)
Windows 8 Enterprise (64bit-2 machines)
Windows 8.1 Enterprise (64 bit)
OS 0.6.8 Server
OS10.7.5
OS10.8.5
OS10.9.2
And I've had Firefox with Flash Player since 2003 on both OS formats. I've never had a compatibility problem.
I also use Chrome, IE, Opera, Safari and a few other browsers you probably never heard of (like SeaMonkey, Maxthon, Waterfox, iCab, OmniWeb)... Flash works in all of them.
I'd have to say the problem is with your system specifically, because if it was a Firefox/Flash compatibility problem, there would have been hundreds of millions of complaints about it, for over a decade. That... just isn't the case.

Viewing different video types on websites with Safari

I've been having this problem for a while and am finally looking to do something about it. I' pretty sure that I have Windows Media Player, Real Player, and Flash Player plug-ins installed on my Mac, but Safari never seems able to use them when certain webpages require them for media content. Sometimes I get a message from Safari asking if it should try Windows Media player, and then it plays fine. Are all types of video on different websites supposed to just play as long as I have the plug-ins? Or am I wrong about that? What do I need to do so that each player will be used when needed? Should I uninstall everything and reinstall clean? Are there other steps I need to take like changing preferences or something?

OK, sorry, the Save As Web Application option (under save as) is perhaps not available in Safari 3.1.2.
I forgot that I was using the developers version of Safari 4. Ooops!
(No, I don't know when the final version will be released.)

Youtube videos won't play with Firefox.

Youtube is still working with Safari and Chrome but for some reason it stopped working with Firefox. This happened the night before it updated to Firefox 25. I thought the update was the issue but it's not. I've tried everything that I've read about to fix this issue. I've tried playing vids in safe mode, updated to the latest version of flash, disabled hardware acceleration, I've cleared all cookies and cache, I've reset firefox, I've deleted all my add-ons, I've deleted and re-installed firefox. Nothing is working. Anyone got a clue what to do?
OSX 10.6.8 Macbook 2.4 Ghz

I have the same problem. I followed all of the above suggestions to no avail. Advertisements play fine. But when the skip option pops up, it doesn't count down smoothly from 5 -0 seconds. It will say, 5, 4, 5, 5, 4, and then sometimes you can skip ad. It doesn't matter if you skip ad or not. When the video comes up, it acts like it wants to load and play but will only play for a second, then restarts from beginning and says an error occured. Same thing in Explorer. And this is a brand new, Windows 7 64-bit computer. Is there anything else I can do to get Youtube videos to play?

Cant open PDFs from government websites with Adobe Reader X 10.1.3.

Have uninstalled and reinstalled. Keep getting "Opening 16.8Kb/0.0Kb" (for example) on a gray screen. Refresh doesn't help.

Hi Ankit... I used Windows 7 on a PC with IE9. I discovered yesterday that some will open after about 5 mins or a refresh, but for other people the PDFs open much more quickly (although others I know have the same problems I do).
This is the website that wont work well for me ... any of the reports under Latest Reports.

Can't navigate the Ryanair website with Firefox but can with Internet Explore

My IP is Sky.com. Their website is not displaying correctly because the search box does not move to the left and anything typed into it redicts back to the home page. Also the ryanair website displays but does not allow one to navigate the whole website. None of these errors occur when using Internet Explorer. This problem only occured today.

You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
*Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
Clear the cache and cookies only from websites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

You can remove all data stored in Firefox from a specific domain via "Forget About This Site" in the right-click context menu of an history entry ("History > Show All History" or "View > Sidebar > History") or via the about:permissions page.
Using "Forget About This Site" will remove all data stored in Firefox from that domain like bookmarks, cookies, passwords, cache, history, and exceptions, so be cautious and if you have a password or other data from that domain that you do not want to lose then make sure to backup this data or make a note.
You can't recover from this 'forget' unless you have a backup of the involved files.
It doesn't have any lasting effect, so if you revisit such a 'forgotten' website then data from that website will be saved once again.

Opening certain websites with Firefox can lock up my computer, keyboard, and mouse for about 1 minute

There seem to be specific "trigger" websites that lock up my computer for about 1 minute. For example, the problem can always be reproduced by trying to log onto att.yahoo.com. After waiting about 1 minute, I regain control of my computer and the website opens. There are no error messages. So far the problem does not seem to repeat after the 1st lock-up until I reboot. When I reboot, the problem happens once more on that first hit to a trigger website. This problem has been happening for about a year now. Have cleared my cache but that has not fixed the problem. Have tried using an alternate browser, Chrome, and never see this problem. Does anyone have a solution short of changing my default browser to Chrome?

I was not able to get to a website with Firefox but I could access it with Explorer so I deleted past history and cleard my cash, now websites I am creating are changed and my passwords are gone so I cannot get into the admin area

I have a website, whitening-skincare.com and am creating a website, lew-deals.com. Suddenly, yesterday, Firefox would not let me into lew-deals.com but directed me to "Default Website Page" but I could open it on another browser. I ran ipconfig/flushdns on my computer, re-booted my computer and the problem still was there, so I went to 'Show all bookmarks' and deleted History for a couple of weeks to that site, then I cleared my cache.
I then went to the whitening-skincare site and it had reverted to where it was when I first started working on it. I tried to get into the wp-admin to see what was going on but was not recognized. I now think that I need to have all the history and cache restored but have no idea how to do it unless a system restore will do it; which I will try in a while if I get no response from you.

Those sites take a long time to load for me (almost a minute)
Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache.
*Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)

Javscript doesn't work on some websites with FireFox 8

When I login to some site, like my online banking site (https://www.txn.banking.pcfinancial.ca), some JavaScript links do not work in FF8 (but they work in FF7 and IE7/8). Most annoyingly, the Logout link doesn't work, so I can't safely logout from my banking site. I contacted the bank, but they say that because it works in other browsers, it must be a problem with FF8, and I tend to agree.

I can access my college website with firefox on a PC but not a Mac.

The message I get when I try to access my college website is:
Server not found. Firefox can't find the server at www.ccccd.edu.
* Check the address for typing errors such as
ww.example.com instead of
www.example.com
* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.
* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
== URL of affected sites ==

The key to what you seem to want to do is to be able to get Apple's Time Capsule router to "join" the network that your Conceptronic router. I believe that works with some third-party routers, but I've never seen a list of those that work in such a configuration and I have no experience with Conceptronic equipment.
You might be better off with a Network-Attached Storage (NAS) device instead of a Time Capsule.
